I'm Still Here: Sequel For 'Step Daddy No'

Chapter 49

Akeilia POV

“I told you that I've forgiven you so stop bothering me. Monique please tell him to leave”. I softly bounce my head to the rhythm of the music trying to ignore Lenoy.

“He's not my problem honey. I'll be right back”. She walked off gazing at her phone screen. I rolled my eyes.

The party is on the first floor. The music isn't too high. I'm looking at everyone enjoying themselves. I told my employees that they can invite anyone they wish to.

I need to be distracted until I decide to talk to Michael. I've been trying so hard to forget him. Not really to forget him, but to straighten my thoughts.

I look out the door and made a sigh.

“I'll be leaving the next two weeks. The least you can do is talk to me”. I sigh again and sip some of my juice.

I'm in a blue dress. It has short sleeves. Tight at the top, slack all the way down stopping above my knee. Flat white shoes. If you haven't noticed, blue is my favorite colour.

I put the glass on the table.

“Do you want me to kiss you goodbye Lenoy?” He blinked a few times. “Well that'd be nice actually”. I chuckled a bit not in the mood to be angry with him. He'd been apologizing for a few days now. I've already forgiven him, but I enjoy him begging me to.

I look at the door. My heart raced when I saw Michael walked in. You know in the movies or cartoon when someone who looks really hot walked in a party the whole place stopped to look at their beauty? As if an angel sent from heaven? Yes this is something like that. The only difference is that I'm the one looking at his beauty because obviously no one else noticed him yet.

He's dressed in blue and white. The pants is white. The shirt is blue. He look as if he has a white marina underneath the blue button front shirt. By the way he's scanning the place I can tell that he's searching for someone.

I quickly looked away the moment I saw him turn his head to this direction. I leaned at Lenoy's ears. “Hold my hand”. He chuckled.

“Why?”

“Just. do it”. I said through gritted teeth. He did as I told him.

“You know that people are gonna talk right?”

“Everyone is minding own business. Let's go up to my office”. I walked off and so did he.

“I really don't get you”.

“Michael!”

“Michael!”

People started yelling.

“Omg Mr Perry!”

I feel Lenoy tense and tried to pull from my grip. I gripped tighter so he know that he shouldn't let go.

“No Akeilia!” He yanked his hand from mine as we approached the elevator.

I stopped. Turn around and look at him.

“I'm tired of being your puppet. Right now your only using me to make Michael jealous. If you don't wanna talk to me after this I don't give a f*ck Akeilia”. I exhale shakily.

“You know very well that I have feelings for you yet your still trying to play with it. I know that I'm in the friend category on your list of relationships so stop playing with me. Yes Michael did something that hurt you badly, but even the people we love hurt us Akeilia. I'm sure you know that. I'm not gonna allow you to make Michael hate me more than he does, thinking that I'm trying to compete with him. If you wanna make him jealous fine, but I'm not gonna let you use me”.
