His Crazy Maid

Annie placed the pot down and switched off the cooker.

She grabbed some plates and dished out the food in it.

She placed the plates on a platter and took it to the dinning room.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

She walked to the living room to inform the duo that the food is ready.

She met them playing video games. They seems so focused.

“If at all any of you is hungry, the meal is ready.”Annie said.

They both turned to look at her.

“You don’t mean that. I’ve been damn hungry for quite a while now and been salivating the aroma of the food since and now?, you think I’m gonna risk stuffing my grumbling stomach with food because of one damned game?”Garry said and sprang up.

Larry scoffed.

“Liar. Better tell the truth. It’s because it’s obvious I’m gonna win you that’s why you decided to abandon the game for food.”

Garry ignored him and went to the dinning area.

Larry dropped the game pad and also walked to the dinning room while Annie went up to get dressed for work.

She came back and went to the dinning room and pulled out a chair and picked up her spoon.

“Or should I just feed you?”Larry asked.

Annie rolled her eyes.

“No.”

“I’m glad your reply was negative cause I can’t risk seeing your guys perform your annoying love things.”Garry says.

“And he’s jealous again.”Larry chuckled.

Annie rushed her meals and stood up.

“Wait. Let me drive you to your work.”

“I appreciate your offer, but, thank you.”Annie replied.

“You can say that after dropping you off at your work place.”Larry said with a finality tone and also stood up to grab his car keys.

Annie sighed with a eyes roll and began walking out of the room.

“So, bye. Take care of yourself and don’t forget, be a good boy so mommy won’t spank you.”Annie said with a smile while removing her seatbelts.

“My point exactly, pinkie. Be a good girl so daddy won’t have to spank you.”Larry grinned.

Annie gave him a peck on his forehead.

“Good bye.”

And she got down and walked inside the company.

Instead of him to drive away, he went to find a suitable place to park his car.

After that, he got down and also walked inside the company.

He headed to Boyd’s office making sure he avoids Annie.

He knocked on his door and got inside only after hearing a “come in”.

Boyd carried his coffee, his eyes not leaving the documents in his hands as he circled his mouth around the glass rim and took a gulp of the coffee.

He glanced up and seeing Larry in front of him, he choked on his drink.

What the?.

He quickly placed the glass down on his desk and took his handkerchief then looked sideways and used it to wipe his mouth.

He turned to his front and saw Larry standing before him.

“Of what do I own your presence in my office?”he asked.

“Nice meeting you again, Boyd Brick. Be just as nice to offer me a seat.”Larry smiled.

Boyd stared at him for a minutes then sighed before gesturing for him to sit on the seat before him.

Larry nodded and sat down.

“Business hours. What are you really doing here?. If you came to apologise for the other night then…”

“Who said I’m here to plead for forgiveness?”

“Then..”Boyd scoffed.

“Did you came here to finish what you started?. Probably to throw insults on my face again…”

“That wasn’t an insult..”

“And what was it?, tell me.. you damned man.”Boyd looked visibly angry.

“Why?, you look pretty angry. You know the damn too well that she already has a man in her life so why the hell do you still asked her on a date?.”Larry scoffed. Unlike Boyd, on the contrary, he was trying to keep his anger in check.

“And oh, that isn’t the first time you asked her on a date. That’s the second time and seriously?..”Larry breathed out the last words.

They both sat staring at each other.

Boyd jaw clenched and Larry sighed.

“You must know my father, Boyd Brick. He is one of your great investors – Mr Brown.”

Boyd jaw unclenched and he tightened his hand in a ball on the desk.

“I’m Larry Brown. I would like it if we partner up.”Larry says.

Boyd scoffed with and coyed a smile.

“I’m disappointed, quite disappointed, that you think I would like to partner up with someone like you.”

“Why?”Larry raised his brows.

“Because you’re no match for me, you prick. You don’t have anything to offer me and well, I only partner up with someone that will influence my business greatly. Your being the son of Mr Brown won’t allow me to take such thing in. Your father also knows me too well. That’s well he took me as his favorite, his son actually.”

At the mentioned of *son*, Larry’s jaw clenched and he blinked rapidly.

His father disown him and Garry and good, he found quite a well outsider to replace them.

This is nice.

“Boyd…”he called with a rough breath.

“Take the offer now, why you still can. I’m doing all of this for your own and that’s because… that’s because… that’s because of Annie. The coming month would be no joke for me and you cause by that time, we would know the real dealer of Western city. Next month… i would have been on the top, so far that you can never reach me so now, Brick.. give it a second thought.. if we partner up, it would be a great fit for you, your company and your popularity. I’m telling you this now because of Annie. I’m sure seeing you get all crushed, crumbled wouldn’t be a great sight for her.. so..”

Larry carried Boyd’s coffee and gulped it all down.

“Sorry, I was thirsty but damn, that taste good.”he said and licked his mouth.

Boyd glared at him.

A knock suddenly sounds on the door and Boyd gaze went to it.

“Sorry, can I come in?”

That was Annie’s voice.

Larry cleared his throat.

“Yeah”Boyd replied.

Annie stepped inside and seeing Larry, her face turned pale.

What is he doing here?

Is he here to cause trouble again?

Oh, no.

Probably because of what she told him last night.

Mama mercy!.

She could have just kept it to herself.

She got to Brick’s desk and looked at Larry.

“What… what are you doing… here?”she stammered, and tilts her head to the side slightly.

“Business stuff. I came to partner up with him so let your worries down, pink face.”Larry replied and stood up.

“So, Mr Brick. I hope you give my business offer a second thought.”he said, extending his right hand out for a shake.

Brick stood up with a fake smile and accepted the handshake.

“Sure…. Mr.. Brown.”he breathed out.

Larry smiled and they both removed their hands.

He gave Annie a peck on her lips and went out.

Annie stood there, transfixed.

What just happened?

Are they both for a real deal?

“You didn’t tell me your boyfriend is Mr Brown’s son.”Boyd said taking her out of her trance.

“Mr Brown”s son?”she repeated.

“Do you intend on making me feel stupid all the time?. First, the date and now… this..”

Annie shook her head vigorously.

“No… no.. I’m just finding this out also. I didn’t know he…”

“Here. Have this typed and print out. We will be using it in the conference room.”Boyd cuts in handing her a note.

Annie slowly collected the notes from him.

“Sincerely, I didn’t….”

“I know.”he said sarcastically.

“Just go and type out the words. That’s all that concern me at the moment.”he added.

Annie nipped at her bottom lip and turned back slowly and started walking towards the door.

Boyd picked up a random file, pretending he was reading it.

After she was out of sight, he threw the file down and stood up then scattered all the files on his desk angrily.

**

After work, Annie headed home.

Opening the door and stepping inside, he paused by the door when she saw three ladies in the living room.

They were all dressed in short dresses.

One of them turned to her while one went ahead to increase the volume of the music playing.

“And you are??”the lady asked.

“My question exactly.”Annie replied.

Just then, Larry popped up and seeing Annie, he grinned and went to circle his arms around her neck.

“You came back early.”he said.

“Oh, I probably sabotaged your plan, right?. Maybe I should head back so you can continue with whatever you are doing before I came..”she replied sarcastically.

“Come on, Annie. What’s your stress?”Larry said while kissing her face.

“You’re my stress. What’s really happening here?. Who are these ladies?, what are they doing here?”

“Garry threw a party and just so you know, they’re his guests and I’ve just been waiting for you.”

Annie yanked his hands away.

“Don’t give me that. I’m not a bimbo.”

Sam suddenly appeared also.

“Oh, hey..”he smiled at her.

Annie scoffed and walked in properly.

“He is here also?”

Just then, the door threw opened again with Skyler and…..

Rose?
