145 Dining with the enemy (1/2)
Dwayne watched as they passed Aidenn's door and walk straight to Jenna's.
”Nice decor” Aidenn said as he walked in.
”It's all thanks to my sister, she's got good thirst”. Jenna said forgetting herself.
Aidenn didn't say anything after that and sat down in the living room watchingtelevision.
”Dwayne please can you help me set the table? I need help in the kitchen.”
”I'll set the table” Aiden said standing up.
”No please you are a guest, Dwayne will do.” Jenna said.
Why was she so in a hurry to be alone with Dwayne, just what is their relationship? Aidenn said to himself as he watched Dwayne follow Adrianna to the kitchen.
As Dwayne walked into the kitchen, he walked close to Jenna and whispered in her ears ”he's hiding outside the door, whatever it is you have to say to me, say it tomorrow. And be careful not to mention family in front of him, he's very curious”.
”Ok” Jenna said as she dished the food.
After dinner, Dwayne stood up to leave. ”I have to go Addy there's somewhere I need to be”he said checking his wristwatch. ”Thanks for dinner, it was delicious. Goodnight Aidenn, and Jenna, make sure you sleep well....don't think about anything and just sleep.”
Jenna caught the sleeve of Dwayne's shirt as he walked past her. ”Why are you leaving so early? I thought you'll be here till I fall asleep.”
”I'm sorry but you know I have to checkout how everything went. I'm sure you'll be fine plus your neighbor is here, he doesn't look like he's in a hurry to leave.” Dwayne hugged Jenna and whispered a becareful to her before he left.
”You two are really close. Isn't Ms Sky jealous of your relationship?” Aidenn asked
Jenna laughed....”she understands our relationship and she trust the both of us so she isn't worried.”
”I hope you don't mind, I wanna rest a bit before I leave. I don't like moving about after eating.”
”Ok” Jenna said as she sat with him on the couch and focusedon the TV program.
Silence filled the air and it was becoming awkward so Aidenn spoke first. ”Are you having trouble sleeping or you just want your friend's fiancee around so you can sleep?”
Jenna ignored his last sentence. ”I was staying with some friends but since I moved out, I find it difficult to sleep in this house alone, and I need to prove to my family that I can stay alone.”
She looked really matured so Aidenn thought she was around mid twenties. ”You must be a daddy's girl or mummy's girl for you not to be able to stay on your own.”
Jenna didn'tknow if she should frown or smile. She wished she was a daddy's girl but she doesn't even know her dad well, he died when she was still a child. She was the black sheep of the family, she always slept out but never alone. Sky had said she and Dwayne were alike that's why they get along well.
”Not really, I just always had people around. So what do you do? Don't you miss Los Angeles?”
Aidenn noticed the change in her mood, so he stopped asking her about her family. ”I do but I wanted a change, and I thought it was time I come home.”
Home? Jenna asked.
”Yeah, my dad was a Nigerian so that makes me one right?”he asked smiling as he looked her in the eyes.
”I'm trying to understand you Aidenn, if that's your real name. And you haven't answered my question, what do you do for a living?”
”What are you trying to understand? I know you think i'm a phony buts that's ok. I was a medical doctor but I wasn't happy doing the job. So I quit.”
”Who quits being a doctor? You are weird.”
”It's a long story, Why don't you tell me about yourself Adrianna?”He said looking at her lips. ”You have a very sexy lips Jenna and I really want to kiss you right now.”
