TAKEN twenty-one
~~~
His mood had lighten up this morning and he was cheerful at work today. No hard feelings on Marcus but he really had a nice time with Stella yesterday. He hate to admit it, but the moment she went down on him in the bathroom. He was triggered. He lost all his mind. He wasn't thinking about his brother. Not at all. The pleasure was on a high standard and he would be lying to himself if he would not love another round. He had peacefully slept yesterday after his night with Stella and had taken work worries off his head. She was a stress reliever.
Resuming back at work this morning, he would say, as hard as it was to cheer up. Flora occupied his brain again. He deliberately passed her office this morning. He had seen her, beautifully dressed and was focus on work. And since that time she had not been in his office. Usually she would report every file she worked on immediately she was done, but he guess she wanted to finish it at once. This might go on for a little while. He isn't seeing any better option to communicate with her.
Flora little heart skipped as she heard his voice on the telecom in her office asking her to come. She thought they were both going to avoid each other at work today. She isn't sure how she was going to relate with her boss. It wasn't going to work out. He was rude, too blunt, doesn't care about anyone else. She doesn't relate with human like that. They don't deserve a place in peoples heart. Hesitantly, she rose to her feet and head to his office. She gave a soft knock and then entered into the room. She saw him standing and looking out to the window, he didn't seem to acknowledge her presence, so she stayed longer in front of his desk cause she was not also willing to say anything.
"Uckhm"she finally cleared her throat and he turned over to her.
"Oh. Flora"he said taking a seat. He swing on his chair for some seconds before raising his head. "I called you because..."a knock was heard from his door and as they both turn, Yvonne came in with huge smile.
Flora has never been happier.
Her squeezed face smoothen into a wide genuine smile as she saw her girlfriend walk into the office.As expected of her, she was all dressed so neatly and gorgeously and she also admired her. Yvonne was pretty, had more attributes of an handsome young man, was not the lady like, but was extremely beautiful for her personality. Even she Flora, who's got all the feminine attributes, the curves and all, really admired Yvonne and maybe that's why she fell. She couldn't contain her happiness and ran to hug Yvonne like a baby. It didn't matter if she had seen her this morning, but it felt different seeing her at work.
"Yvonne.."Allen called cutting their hug and friendliness short. Yvonne and Flora turned to him immediately.
"I went through your files and I must say we are the luckiest to have you in our company"he started praising her
"Thank you"Yvonne gave a short bow still in her smiles.
"But as situation might have it, you were replaced by me. And I apologize for that too. Your close friend here Flora, and I had an argument about you about being on this seat and I must compliment her courage to be able to stand for you. She really likes you and want you back. After our little fight, I gladly wanted to lift your suspension, till I received your email yesterday."
The sound of an email message made Flora roll her eyes. She hit Yvonnevby her arm to ask what it was all about.
"I do not know why you are resigning, but we want you back Miss Yvonne, the company wants you back. Please rethink your decision"
Flora's mood changed in a second and she needed more explanation on what Allen was saying. She impatiently hit her foot on the floor repeatedly.
"Thank you for the opportunity. This company has been my life. I love Marcus confidence in me and it was right of him to scold me. I love your choice of having me back, but I've found options, in fact not in this state and I really thought about it before sending my resignation"
"You've found...what are you saying"Flora bellowed. Yvonne holds Flora's fist tight and calm her down. She turned to Allen.
"Flora would do well in my absence"
"What are you saying"Flora's rage increased and she released her self from Yvonne's grip. "I do not understand what's going on"her voice broke partially.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you..."Yvonne started but Flora ran out of the office before she could finish her statement.
Allen was about to call her back when Yvonne stopped him.
"I would take care of her. I'm sorry for this"she apologized.
"Are you both best friends"he asked. He couldn't understand where this much love was coming from.
"Yes"Yvonne shortly replied and ran after Flora.

She could hear Flora cry at the bathroom and without knocking she entered immediately.
"Just leave me alone"Flora angrily cried pushing her away from her.
"I didn't tell you this morning because.."
"You didn't care about how I would feel. That's why!. How could you do this Yvonne"
"You know I've been planning this for a year. I got rejected all the time."
"You had a good job here"
"But this is better and you know that Flora. We both are looking for our progress professionally and this is that time of our life for us to make this money and create a future for ourselves"
"What future! What's future without you. How do you expect me to stay without you."
"I resolved that already, I would be free on weekends and I'll be home then. I took that role of the job just for you. I love you Flora and it's not just you. Don't you care about how I feel leaving you alone and going all by myself. I fell for you first Flora and I'm the most pained here. Don't be selfish! I love you so much that i would risk my life for you. And all I'm doing is just for us to be together at the end. I..."her voice broke down too and she wiped the tear that was about to fall out of her eyes immediately. Flora sobbed and rubbed her own tears too. She cupped Yvonne's face in her hands, she knew how much Yvonne loved her, and it hadn't change.
"I don't want you to go"she cried again. Yvonne wiped her tears with the back of her hands and moved closer to her. She kissed her eyes and then her lips.
"It wouldn't be for long"she assured her. She stared into Flora's eyes and gritted her teeth, she also didn't want to breakdown. She really didn't want to leave. Who would she kiss every morning, cuddle, make tea for. All her attractions was for Flora. She was head over heels for her.
"Oh god"Yvonne cuss her inability to control herself anymore as she dropped her bag and locked the bathroom door. She jam her lips with Flora's and speedily suck on it. Her girlfriend received the kiss warmly and they settled for an intense make out in the bathroom.
