Through The Shadow 2 -Episode5

Seon stared at Louisa. Her cheeks were red and her mouth all swollen and kissed. He could see the expression of shock on her face. 

“Seon….

“Louisa please let me explain” He begged as he saw Louisa’s hand pointing at the door, gesturing him to leave. 

“Just give me a moment to clear things up for chrissake Louisa” he pleaded rashly. Running his hands through his hair.

“I can no longer keep up with this Louisa, with such pretence. I try to act like nothing’s wrong. It hurts me so much. Seeing you act the way you do. 

You keep on pushing me away and it gets me off the grid. I’m loosing my mind and it hurts so much Isa.  

It’s like you piercing a blade into me. You detest me so much, you detest my presence. Why? What have I done to deserve that? I try to do everything to please you, to plant a smile on your face. But my efforts seems like it’s wasted. What have I done wrong Louisa? Just tell me and I’ll do anything to make amends.

Pushing me away won’t change my feelings for you because I am already In love with you.

I LOVE YOU Louisa!  I am not crazy. I am so much in love with you. And you pushing me away, it’s not just fair. I really can’t keep up with that. I jus….

“Get out” Louisa mumbled staring at seon In bewildment. 

Seon paused. Staring bluntly at his Boss.

 “Please Louisa just give me a chance. I am not joking about my feelings for you. Please… Just one chance and I’ll prove to you how serious I am about th…

“GET OUT!” She shouted at him. Silencing seon instantly.

Shocked and hurt by her reaction, he picked up his files and left with worried steps. 

Fucked up! Big time Fucked up

Bayley paced to and Fro in her apartment. She has never been disappointed in her entire life before. Seon referred her as ‘Loosed’ . There’s nothing wrong with seductions. That’s part of her business. It’s what she does, seduce men and get laid for money. But seon is different. She likes him that’s why she tried to seduce him earlier today.

Seon is the only man that has ever refused her advances. How strange. Too bad. She wants him so much because he’s got everything a woman need in a man. He’s got a fitted body and it drives her crazy. 

No man in his right senses has ever pushed her away. Considering the killer shape she has. 

Damnnn!!! Seon is really one hell of a man to refuse her. How sure is she that blood runs through his veins.

Louisa picked up her lighter, then dropped it. She picked it up again. And once more dropped it. She’s got a cigarette twigged in her middle finger. But seems she got no appetite for it. 

Cigarretes  are normally a thing she uses to relieve herself off her worries. But it’s kinda different in this case. She’s got no appetite for it.

She finally sighed in defeat as she threw it away from her.

She has a lot on her mind. Cigarettes and drinks used to be her den of comfort. But now, it doesn’t seem like it. 

She laid helplessly on her bed, heads up, her eyes fixed to the ceiling.

She hasn’t really been herself since seon visited. Her mind has been filled with the thought of him. As his words kept re echoing into her ears. 

She turned sideways covering her ears downwards with the bed cover. 

What has he done to her? She asked soberly.

Apart from the feelings she’s got for Ciara, seon seemed like a pest inside her.

She keeps seeing his face and it gets her mad.

Whenever she sees him next, she’s gonna plant her fist on his face. And she’ll make sure he bleeds.

Talking about love, Love is an overstatement.and it’s meant only for the weak. The vulnerable who just needs someone to be there for them.

But she isn’t weak. She isn’t vulnerable. She never wants to be. 

‘fuck love’ she cursed. ” To hell with it… There is nothing like Love… Love is….”

She stopped and then thought for a while.

“If there’s nothing like Love,what do I feel for Ciara?. I bet that is totally different”:she added. 

After everything she has suffered, she has refused to be vulnerable. 

There’s nothing like Love!.

She concluded.

But those big words never changed the fact that her heart sti had the thought of seon. 

She felt weak and so restless. 

” I am going to work tomorrow and he’s gonna undo whatever nonsense he did to my to heart.he’s gonna remove himself from it. I don’t care how. He is gonna do it!” She fussed out.

Thinking of what she’ll do to him the next day at work.

“Good morning” 

Everyone greeted as they saw Louisa Walk past them that morning heading to her office. Answering none of their greetings. She wasn’t in the mood for any of them.

No one had expected to see her today. Though they never knew where she had been all these while.

“Good morning Miss Sullivan. Welcome back. I was beginning to get really worried. Thought of paying you a visit after today. But Thank God you are here” Mrs Dawkins greeted.

“Thank Fuck! Tell seon to report to my office this minute” she ordered not minding whatever Mrs Dawkins was saying.

“Mr Nichols? I haven’t seen him. He isn’t at the office now!” She replied instantly.

Louisa frowned. “He isn’t what?” She arched her brow.

“Not in the office by few minutes past eight? I don’t get. Who is this boss here?” She asked checking her watch.

“It’s his first Time Miss Sullivan. He has never kept this late” she replied.

“Hmmmm” Louisa exhaled..”when he comes, tell him to rush down to my office!” She added.

“Okay . No problem Miss Sullivan” Mrs Dawkins Replied.
