Chapter 24 - I miss him

Lisa heard his voice and woke up to see him sitting on the bed.

She cleaned her eyes for clearer view.

Good morning sir, how are you feeling?

Grey wanted to tease her so he asked her check his temperature because he doesn't know how he's feeling .

Lisa didn't understand this man." Why don't you check yourself, if you feel cold, warm or hot let me know.

I don't know how to do it, besides am not a doctor.

Neither am I. Said Lisa. To avoid unnecessary arguments she decided to check him.

She stood from the chair, climbed to the bed, one hand resting on the bed to support her weight and the other which she proceeded to use to check his temperature.

As she was about to check his temperature, she mistakingly lost her balance and fell on him.

Lisa fell on him,her breast touching his masculine chest and right now she is about loosing her sanity because his scent is all over her nose.

Grey kept staring at her, for odd reasons he felt like he is aroused, that's really weird because he hasn't been turned on, he had sex in the past for sex sake.

Ehrmm, he cleared his throat as he helped her sit up. "You should be more careful " he said in a kinda hoarse voice.

Lisa managed to check his temperature and it was normal, she quickly ran down from the bed and sat down.

Do you have any unattended work? Grey asked her

Yes, the networking project, I just need to upload the recent changes and the financials..

Ok, when you are done you can go home

Why?she curiously asked

I cleared today's work to take care of my self like you said, he replied as came off the bed.

Ohh, she replied

I will be going for a business trip for three days, you will handle things here, ok?

Business trip?

Yes

Ok, she replied, but right now she is having an inexplicable feeling,for some reasons she feels sad and something she couldn't fathom.

Grey left her to go shower.

*****************************

Lisa sat on her chair at the empty office, Grey just left to the airport and she won't see him for three days.

Right now she feels lonely, sad and she felt like crying.

When did you start growing on me? Lisa asked as an unknowing tear fell to her cheek.

She hates to admit it but she's already missing him, the thought of not seeing for three days was driving her crazy.

It was time to go home, Lisa came out , locked the door to see her friend waiting for her.

Hey girlie? Anna called in a cheerful manner.

Xup? She asked

You shouldn't be asking me because we are all happy.

Why?asked Lisa

Why? Anna asked back, as they walked to the elevator.

Yes,why are you happy?

Because our workaholic and crazy boss is out for three days, that's a breath of fresh air, right?

Right, answered Lisa

Anna looked at her in shock." For real? I thought you would be the most excited amongst all, hey look at me. Anna urged her

What? Lisa asked as she looked at her and looked away quickly.

You seem off, are you okay? As she asked, the elevator opened and the walked to see some workers still packing to go home. They walked outside as Anna asked again.

Lisa are you okay?

Yes am good.

Tell that to the dogs, once we get home you must tell me what's wrong. Said Anna as she flagged down a cab.

They got home safely, Anna opened the door and they went in.

She sat down, so did Lisa.

Anna kept staring at lost Lisa for two minutes and now she is convinced that something is wrong.

Come back Lisa,quit thinking, said Anna as she stood to sit close to Lisa.

She tapped her for her to quit thinking.

Lisa what's wrong?

To Anna's greatest shock and surprise, she started crying.

Lisa!.

Anna couldn't say anything but hug her until she stops crying and ready to talk.

I miss him, said Lisa in midst of sobbing.

You miss who? Anna still confused about who she misses.
