Dirty Affairs novel Chapter 41

Looking worried and confused, Cynthia walked out of her room and walked into the kitchen. To chill off, she took some juices out of the fridge as she poured it gently into two glass cups. Once was done, she placed them on a portable tray as she slowly walked towards the sitting room where Sophia sat quietly, going through her email messages using her Apple laptop.

“Care for some drink?” Cynthia asked as she placed the tray of drinks on the little table beside Sophia. Without waiting to hear Sophia's reply, she took hold of one glass of drink and handed it over to Sophia which she appreciated and took a quick sip from it and carefully placed back the glass of juice on the table.

“Before I came back from work last night, you were already asleep..” said Cynthia as she took a sip of her juice. “What really happened?” Cynthia asked as she adjusted a bit. She sat next to Sophia as she waited patiently and curiously to hear what Sophia had to say.

“i don’t think I'm interested in working for him. I'm sorry.” sophia apologised. Cynthia on the other hand was still confuse.

“Why? If I may ask. Because I want to understand something. I don’t see any reason you should change your mind after I have pleaded with you. So tell me why you are suddenly rejecting the offer. cynthia spoke, looking worried and curious as she slightly held sophia’s arm.

“tell me...” said cynthia.

Sophia quietly gazed at cynthia in the face for few seconds and then, she sighed before she broke the silence. She started to narrate to Cynthia how her first encounter with Ace looked like and how he forcefully kissed her and even warned her to stay away from him. She also told Cynthia the full details of what happened to her at that night club. Including how Cynthia was in trouble and how they told her cynthia was enjoying her moment sexually in the restroom.

“you know I wasn’t conversant with the stuffs that happened there. So, why did you leave me all by myself... why?” sophia asked, folding her hands across each other. Her facial expression showed how angry she was which confused Cynthia.

Cynthia was surprised as she wondered who must have spilled such lies to Sophia. She widened her eyes in disbelief and in awe, she placed her arm on her chest with so much curiosity

“i was enjoying a pleasurable moment? who the fuck told you such rubbish?`` Sophia, heard Cynthia's questions and could not understand a thing as she continued narrating to Cynthia the rest of the things that happened while she was absent.

Cynthia heard Sophia out and then decided to clear things up. She made Sophia understand whatever she heard were totally lie.

"That's not true… I mean I didn't do such a thing. Sis, please believe me… I didn't, trust me." Cynthia pleaded, kneeling down. The tone in which Cynthia used to say how innocent she was to Sophia made Sophia so emotional.

"The moment I was done with the call, I couldn't come in to meet you because my period suddenly came. It came so soon and I had to look for a way to get a sanitary pad but I wasn't quick to do so. I'm sorry." Cynthia begged.
