“Vivian, why are you cold towards me? Vivian, why have you
been avoiding me like a plague? What exactly did I do to push
you far away from me? I have given you space but it seems like
it has made things worse. I miss our laughter and fun. Please
what is the problem, can you open up to me?” I was almost
crying.

While I spoke, I made sure that I maintained eye contact.

My yanshing experiences have taught me that to get what you want while speaking to a girl, maintain eye contact. It always
works. Vivian scanned my face for any trace of insincerity. I put up my best display of honesty and seriously. I looked like I was
pained and it was only her that could soothe me.

“Khels, you are a player. I don’t want to get hurt. I just got out of a 2 year relationship and I want to make sure that the person
who has s*x with me is someone who wants to be serious with me. I have feelings for you and I am not sure if what I want is what you also want. So, I decided to create that gap.”

“You don’t know how much I missed you Vivian” I told her,
picking her hand from her lap and enclosing it in mine.

“I missed you too Khels” she said.

“Can I get a hug from you now?” I asked.

She hugged me tightly and I pecked her lightly on her cheek. She got up to leave. When she got to the door, she turned and said to
me,
“Khels, what do you really want from me?”
I walked up to her, held her hands and whispered softly to her
“Vivian, just know this. I am never gonna hurt you.”

She smiled and hugged me again. As she left my office, I felt sorry for her. Only if she knew that I did not intend to keep that promise.

I AM a player. And once I get a taste of that puss.y , she’s history.

When she left, I sat down to work but I could not concentrate.

I was thinking about Cynthia. Where in the world did she come from? Did she have a vendetta to orchestrate? Did she want to
finish what she started at HQ? Did she plan to ruin me?

As these questions flooded my thoughts, I remembered how everything started…

It all started about 3 years ago when I was serving with the company. I had come in as a youth corper and was undergoing IT
training as I was going to be working in the IT department of the HQ.

I had decided that I was gonna be serious with life and forget girls, I would take my job seriously and would get a good place
to work after service. I was very good at client support and after a month, the IT Manager never bothered to come to the server
room.

I had the place all to myself. He only came up when he had new products to test run or there were situations beyond my control.

But that rarely happened.

So it was that one day, I was ‘lounging’ in the server room as usual when the intercom rang. I always let it ring twice before I
pick up. On the third ring, I picked up the receiver.

“Hello. Good morning, this is IT.”I said.

“Good afternoon” a very stern female voice replied.

I quickly looked at my wrist watch. 12:37pm.

“Good afternoon please.” I corrected. “How may I help you please?” I asked
“Who is speaking?” The stern voice came again.

I was getting pissed. In my mind, I was like ‘say what you want to say and get it over with!’
“My name is Kevin. I am the IT Support at your beck and call. Is there anything I can help you with please?”I said.

“Well, I am not connected to Outlook and my mails are not dropping. Please come and check it out.” She said. Her voice was even colder.

“Not a problem ma. Please who is speaking?” I asked
“Just come to the reception. What do you need my name for?”
She retorted.

“I’ll be right there” I concluded. She b@nged the phone on me.

I was angry. What was her own sef? I was determined to see who the babe was.

Afterall na common receptionist. Nothing she wan do me. I was determined to give her a piece of my mind.

I descended the stairs and went down to reception.

As I walked towards her I was already rehearsing the words I would say to her. Her head was buried in a novel she was
reading. I got to her and then said,
“Hello. I am the IT guy you just spoke to.”
I was still in mid-sentence when she turned and I saw her face.

I literally melted.

I could not say a word!

Staring at me was the most beautiful set of eyes I had ever seen.

She had an oval face, supported by a very small nose. Her lips were full and wide, with pink lipstick on them. She had seductive
eyes, all blended into her very light skinned body. She was almost a half-caste. She looked stunning. She wore a pink jacket
over a grey camisole. I was lost for words.

I had no idea that I had the same effect on her.

She had never seen me before and I bet she was thinking I would be a scruffy
looking nerd with glasses and no bit of cuteness.

I have s*xy** eyes, and my diction is polished. I am a charmer and I don’t look
bad. Many girls find me attractive. I guess we both blew each other away.

“I am the IT Guy you just spoke to” I said again, trying to compose myself.

“Ok. Please help me sort it out. I am way behind schedule.” She said, getting up for me to sit on her chair.

As I fixed the issue, I caught a glimpse of her from the corner of my eye. She was sizing me up. I took a while on the computer making it seem like it was a very hard and tedious job.

After about 6 minutes, I said to her,
“It’s okay now. Please try shutting down your computer more often instead of hibernating.” I also fed her some IT jargons.

She said okay and thanked me. I left and went back to my office. I did not think about her or attempt to reach her. I just concentrated on
my job. The next day was my General CDS. I was done signing my “Holy Book” and was chatting with some friends when the IT
Manager called me,
“Kevin, where are you?” He asked.
“At Eti-Osa Local Government sir. Today is my general CDS sir.”
I replied
“When will you be done?” He asked.
“I am done sir. I am about to head home.” I replied.
“No, don’t go home. I am sending Ade to pick you up in 10 minutes. I am attending a meeting somewhere and I hear there
are issues in the office. Please go there. I will settle you when I come.”
“Ok sir.” I said.
“Have you eaten?” He asked
“No sir, I haven’t sir.” I lied.
“Okay. I will also tell Ade to get you something from La Saisons on his way. Okay?

“Yes sir. Thank you sir.”
I had nothing to do all day and I preferred the free internet connectivity, the blasting AC and of course the rest that came with being in the office than being in the hot sun and not doing
anything tangible. Ade picked me up and gave me lunch. We got to the office and I entered through the back door. As I walked up
the stairs eating my shrimps, the receptionist was coming down.

She looked even better. She had this wicked hips and she smiled at me as we approached each other. I muffled a good afternoon
through a mouth filled with food. She laughed and asked me if she could have some of my food. I opened the pack and she took
3 big shrimps.

I wondered why her attitude towards me suddenly changed. She
did not let me wait for long.

I fuc.ked her the next day, a Friday.

This is how it all went down
