Thirty Eight

"It is not obvious that we are too tired from what we did earlier. We sweated a lot but we are both beautiful," Dionne said with a smile.

"Are you happy?" Ayesha asked her.

"Of course. I don't have time to be like this. You know how much money I use with my baby and my family," Dionne answered with a smile.

"It's just. I miss you. But that's gone since we met and go shopping right now. I'll train myself not to be with you every day," Ayesha said with a smile.

"We can see each other every day as long as we are not busy with what we do," Dionne answered with a smile.

"How are you two Lennox doing?" asked Ayesha.

"It's okay, we're still friends," she replied with a smile.

"Are you sure that you two are just friends? You don't have feelings for each other?" asked Ayesha.

Dionne was stunned because she couldn't forget the kiss between the two of them earlier but she knew that she only provoked him because she was the first to kiss the man's nose, she drank water out of time and shook her head.

"Nothing. My situation is difficult, Ayesha. And I'm not yet ready for another relationship. I think I haven't moved on from Noah," Dionne answered.

Her friend's eyes rolled as she looked at her.

"You should move on with him, you can't still love him until now. If that’s the case you're too stupid to do that. It's long overdue. You should have moved on and started a relationship right away and found the right person to take care of. you and your child and will love you and support you financially. Because frankly speaking, life is very difficult now. Even I am having a hard time. I have not even thought about Kiley and I getting married because I don't think I am ready to have my own family, I still want to graduate in nursing and get a job," Ayesha answered.

Dionne shook her head.

"Really? Are you struggling? The salary of doctors today and for sure Kiley has a lot of savings for the future of you two, right? Besides, I know that his family is rich so he has no one to support but it's just him and you. So if he ever proposes to you, accept it. There is no case if you both study and get married. In your current state, you are like a couple since the two of you living together so that's why don't complain anymore. Maybe he'll find someone else and you'll regret it later. You can't let people like Kiley go. So don't tell me now that you're not ready. Will you let it go? how many years will your love go without going? You are very lucky in life, Ayesha. Grab the opportunity while is still there," Dionne said with a smile.

"After all, you're right. You also learned in life from all the hardships and pains you went through," Ayesha answered.

"I'm thankful because you were part of my life and you were my sympathizer when I was hurting. I don't know what I would do without you by my side. I don't have money and I don't have a job. The man who was pregnant left me so it's too bad I went through it but I was able to do it all because of you," Dionne said with a smile.

"Of course. That's how friends are. We always help each other because when I need you, you're there for me. It's not important how much money has been given, as long as what's important is the value of a person and your presence like now. I'm thankful. I didn't experience what you experienced before because I really can't and I'm not as brave as you," said Ayesha.

After some time they went home. They will meet again in the next few days. Dionne was very happy because Ayesha was happy. After all, that's why their time with each other is important. On the other hand, Lennox fell asleep waiting for Dionne. He was very tired from working all day and night. Starting tomorrow, he will come in at night so he will rest in the morning. The front door opened and he was surprised to see Dionne enter. It's so beautiful and the hair color has changed. He could hardly look at her properly, maybe he was ashamed of what he had done here earlier. So what he did was he approached her and kissed her then he smelled her neck. He didn't protest so he made the most of the opportunity. Lennox grinned in his mind because he was still able to kiss the girl he loved.

"I think you've gotten better? And you’ve got a new look right now. Have you found another man?" he asked while grinning.

"Why does your question sound like an accusation? It's not obvious that you're upset," Dionne answered with a laugh.

Lennox froze. It was still obvious that he was annoyed.

"Why only now? I see so much joy on your face today," he diverted the topic.

"Of course. Besides, it's not because I look like this now that I've found another man. I’m contented with your presence in my life that’s what only matters. Ayesha treated me so I was forced to get my hair done," Dionne answered with a laugh.

Lennox just grinned. After a while, Dionne said goodbye for a while to get dressed for a while, so she waited for him in the living room. Then his phone rang on the table in the living room so he picked it up and looked and saw that it was Clara calling. It's been a while before this woman remember to contact him. So he knew she needed something from him.

“Hello, Clara. What’s up?” Lennox asked.

“It’s been awhile since I didn’t contact you. I miss you,” Clara said.

"You're just too busy with your life, Clara. That's why I didn't bother you anymore. Why?" he asked.

"Let's party," Clara replied.

"Where?" he asked.

"At the newly built club in the city. They said my free drinks," Clara answered with a laugh.

"So the free drinks are what you go for? Because after all, you can buy a lot," Lennox said with a laugh.

"Sort of. What game are you playing?" Clara asked.

This girl only invites him once, so he can't refuse, but he's having second thoughts because Dionne might get angry and not agree. But he will try to say goodbye,

"Okay. Wait for me there," Lennox answered.

"Alright. I'm still at home so I'll call you later," Clara said and hung up.
