Stalked by the Mafia Boss

The gym room smelt of sweat, the air in it was polluted with different scents of perfumes, body odour and stench. Mirrors ardoning the walls reflecting images of people working out, some carrying out the simple workouts while others picked up the heavy ones.

Korina, Anne and Daniella were at the end of the room, each on a thread mill, they worked out while chattering in the process.

“Something was really off about him when I visited him the last time.” Korina told the girls, her hair done in a pony tail bouncing up and down as she ran the thread mill. She was dressed in a black sports bra, jogging pants and a pair of running shoes, beads of swear gathered around her forehead and glistened on her chest.

“I agree.” Anne said trying to catch her breath, she was dressed similarly to Korina but her outfit was yellow, “With all what you just related to us, I hope it isn’t what I am thinking.” She slowed down for a moment still trying to catch her breath. She got down and reached for her water bottle and began taking sips of water. She was kinda exhausted, she hadn’t really ran a mill for sometime now.

“Like what on earth would he have been doing anyway?” Daniella asked, she was running the mill in slow paces, “His explanation dosen’t even add up to me.”

“I don’t know what to think.” Korina came down from the mill, she grabbed a towel and sat on a bench, “I don’t want to start getting suspicious or anything.” She dabbed the sweat of her neck slowly with the towel.

“Whatever korina, I think you should be more careful.” Daniella advised, “I mean like super careful, vigilant and alert.”

“Yea, she’s right Korina.” Anne agreed shaking her head, “Men can’t totally be trusted, they can switch up on you anytime.”

“I know.” Korina said, “But maybe I am being too paranoid. It might have actually been the heat and stress.”

“Oh really?” Daniella rolled her eyes.

“Yea, right!” Anne scoffed, “Heat and stress really? Was that what caused the scattered files?” She asked no one in particular.

“Yea Anne.” Daniella nodded, “Maybe he has destructive heat stress issues. She said, the sarcasm dripping from her voice.

Anne laughed and Korina frowned at them.

” Hey, that’s enough.” She said, “It’s my boyfriend we are talking about here.”

“Sorry.” They both mumbled.

“Honestly, Korina.” Daniella walked over to her and placed a hand on her shoulder, “I don’t wanna see you get hurt.”

“Me too.” Anne agreed with Daniella, “I do hope his lame excuses are actually what it is.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Me too.” Korina mumbled her shoulders slumping, “Me too.”

They finished up from the gym and decided to freshen up at Anne’s apartment and eventually they spent the rest of the day there.

Korina got out of the shower with an over sized robe on her. She held a towel in her hand trying to furiously dry her hair. Anne was on the bed operating her phone and Daniella sat up on a plastic chair toying with a pack of cards in her hands.

“So Korina.” Daniella started looking in the direction of her cousin, “What are you gonna do about the sex issue?”

“Wait! Wait! Wait!” Anne screeched sitting up right signalling at them with her hands, “Hollup! Cole asked for sex?” She dropped her phone and turned to Korina.

“Yes, yes he did.” Daniella answered, “You sure do miss a lot when you go on your shoots.”

“Not my fault.” Anne rolled her eyes at them, “A girl has got to hustle.”

“I don’t know what to do yet.” Korina finally answered, she dropped down on the bedroom sofa tying the towel around her hair.

“Hello.” Anne swung her arms, “Can someone fill me in on what’s going on here, I am lost.”

“Okay here’s it.” Daniella dropped the cards, “Cole wants sex and Korina dosen’t want to, she doesn’t really feel like doing it with him.”

“Korina, are you a virgin?” Anne asked.

“Nope, I am not.”

“And Cole keeps on pressing like it’s his right or something.” Daniella added.

“Oh.” Anne shook her head.

“Yesterday when we were even making out, things got a little heated.” Korina blushed.

“A little heated you say?” Her cousin smirked at her.

Anne folded her hands across her chest and gave Korina a pointed look.

“Fine.” She huffed, “Things got very heated and he tried to you know…”

“Nuh huh… we don’t know.” Daniella said.

“Tell us.” Korina glared at Anne.

“Gosh.” She faced palmed in frustration, “He tried to have sex with me, I had to stop him.”

“Hoot! Hoot!” Daniella squeeled excitedly while Anne laughed, Korina too two throw pillows and hurled both at them.”

“But why don’t you want to anyway?” Anne asked catching the pillow.

The one sent to Daniella hit her square in the face.

“I don’t Know.” She answered, “I just don’t feel like it. I have noticed a lot of changes in him and I feel like I will regret having sex with him. There is really something always off about him these days. He acts shifty and all. He’s not the same Cole I got in a relationship with. He doesn’t pick calls where I am anymore, prevents me from coming to his office at times, a lot of things, I wanna be sure what I am doing before getting really intimate with him.” She explained.

“Oh, I see.” Anne sighed, Daniella just rolled her eyes.

“You don’t know what you are missing girl.” Daniella said standing up, “The feeling of that mmmmm dick inside you is amazing, the way it stretches…”

“What do you know?” Korina cut her short, “Your boyfriend is never around, he’s never here.” A smirk developed on Korina’s lips seeing Daniella had begun to frown.

“Yea, she has a point.” Anne agreed with her, “Where is your boyfriend Daniella?”

“Always away on business trips.” Daniella answered.

“Still no excuse for him to never be seen.” Anne shrugged.

“Like we never see him, he’s never here, never around, no pictures either, never heard his voice over the phone, you are always discreet with him.”

“Is he a ghost?” Anne asked.

“Is he faceless?” Korina probed further.

“Does he even exist?”

“Uhmm…” Daniella played with her hair looking sheepishly at her friends, “Who wants food?”
