Immediately Frank was done eating his breakfast, he told me he was going to work. I had wanted following him so he could drop me in their mansion to see Mam Camila. But he told me he would be late if he waited for me, however he would send his driver to come and take me to their mansion to which I agreed. Thus, I escorted him to his car and he droved off after pecking me on my forehead. He did that outside on broad daylight, and I believed some of our nosy neighbors had seen that even though none seemed to be paying attention to us. But I believed some where in their houses looking at us towards their glasses or windows. I really didn't like our street, so much attention for little things people do. And could you believe only few had went to check on Aunt Vicky at the hospital? Well, that was the case... it was as if they didn't care at all. But if she had died, they would be among the first at the funeral. I knew those kinds of people, all they want is the downfall of other people. Ultimate downfall.
I cleared the table and washed the dishes. And just as I was about to head upstairs to take a bath, Jessica came and asked if her mother's breakfast was ready. She then dropped the warmes and tablewares she took to the hospital yesterday for me to wash. I was stunned, and what pained me more was the fact that she didn't even care to greet me when she came. She just started talking as if we had been together all night. Well, it was their house... Yes, the house was theirs or wasn't it? And I wasn't her sibling, I was just a cousin hence she could treat me the way she like regardless of whether I senior her or not. I was really angry, so angry but I tried all my best to control myself. I told her to check the kitchen and fetch the meal I prepared. And if something is missing, she could prepare it herself. As for the items she brought back, I would wash them when I was done taking care of my body as I didn't take my bath already.
That was it, I headed straight to my room and then took my clothes off before heading into the bathroom. There, I noticed how gently Frank used the things there. His thought then bounced into my mind, the thought of seeing him half naked. To be honest, I didn't really thought I could ever see him that way before our wedding, and seriously I was finding it difficult to take the thought off my mind. Perhaps because I wasn't used to seeing men that way in reality or because I didn't used to mingle with men. I ran my hands in my body as the water began raining down on me from the shower. I had turned it on and while I ran my hands across my body, I envisioned myself in Frank's big bathroom cuddling each other while we take shower. And that made me to start feeling some kinds of strange feelings, I quickly snapped out of it and turned the shower off.
That wasn't the right time for me to harbour such thoughts, it could lead me into danger. The danger of ending up having high libido. Something I never dreamed or thought of. I could only hear in stories and see in certain movies, but had never experienced it before the fact that I used to shun any thought that will kick-start it. I was also careful of the kinds of movies I watched, some movies though used to have matured contents but due to their importance I used to watch them. But I used to skip the s*x scene to avoid kick-starting my s*xual drive. And sometimes, I would come across some advertisments with matured contents. That too, I used to try my best to skip them to avoid developing any kind of feelings for such things. Even though it was now a normal thing in the society to make love before getting marriage as long as the two parties agree, I still wished to get married first before offering my body to the man of my life. To me, virginity is something and its value is priceless. It can't be bought!
When I was done taking bath I wore my bathrobe and left the bathroom. Thus, I went and rubbed creame in my body before heading to the closet to select some clothes. I was expecting Frank's driver and I didn't want to keep him waiting when he arrives, hence I had to get myself prepared in time so as not to keep him waiting when he arrives. It wasn't as if keeping him waiting would result into something bad, I just wouldn't want to keep him waiting because I wouldn't be happy if someone kept me waiting too. I took a purple gown from the closet and matched it with a black cap and top. Odd combination, but I didn't care much about what people think about my outfit. I had the right to wear whatever I wished to wear as long as it was ex.plosives or something harmful to myself or to the general public of which doing so might end up having me arrested. But since it wasn't all that, then I was good to go... or should I say, there was nothing to worry about. Not even a bit.
After wearing the gown, I went to the standing mirror and applied some make-up. Thus, I beamed at my reflection in the mirror before taking my handbag and heading downstairs. As soon as I arrived downstairs I realized I promised to wash the warmers and other things brought back by Jessica, but then I rolled my eyes said to myself "Those can wait!", but just as I stepped out of the house and found out that Frank's driver was stil yet to come, I disappointedly went back inside and dropped my bag on the couch at the sitting room. I had wanted sitting down to wait for him too but something told me to just go and wash those items. It would be better if I do it now while I had to time, and not later when I might be busy or too tired to do it. On normal circumstances though I didn't used to be tired of doing chores unless if I was feeling sleepy or sick. Then, I would leave the chores until I have time to face them. How I wished there was an automatic dishwasher, although I would still need to set it before leaving it to do its job.
I headed to the kitchen and gently began washing the dishes. Just then, Jessica came downstairs all set and began packaging her breakfast together with that of her mother in containers. There wasn't any coffee among the things I kept for them but she didn't care. I thought she would prepare and add to the other things but that girl, it was obvious she wasn't in the mood to do any work. However, she took some can drinks from the refrigerator before leaving. She didn't say anything to me while leaving too, although I didn't really care. I was already getting used to her childish, one day she would return back to her senses. Just like she once did, and I hoped it shouldn't be too later when that happens. I thought to myself as I continued washing the dishes. And just as I was about to finish I heard the sound of the engine of a vehicle. The engine was then turned off the moment the sound became closer, which obviously meant someone parked his or her vehicle in front of our house.
It could actually be Frank's driver, and I had high hope on that. However, I was lazy to go and check the door hence I continued washing the dishes until I heard the sound of a knock on our door. Just then I concluded he was the one. And when I went to the door I saw him standing and waiting for my arrival, it was the sound of his car that I heard earlier and wondered who the driver was. Thus, I told him to wait for me that I would be ready soon. "Alright, Miss Laura" he said and then returned to the car. Hence I shut thr door and headed back to the kitchen. When I was done washing the dishes, I rinsed my hands and dried them before heading to the sitting room to take my handbag. After taking my handbag I headed straight outside the house, noy forgetting to lock the door before hopping into the car. Thus, I told the driver to take me to the hospital so I could give Jessica the house keys before we go to the Walters Mansion. "Okay ma" he said and turned, en route to the hospital.
