Spun Into Gold 3: The Love Triangle.
The Love Triangle.
The night had gone briskly by. Like a well rested sleeping goddess gradually becoming conscious of the regular world, my eye lids slowly opened up, and the subtle rays of the morning sun graced my face, making me smile. At the distance I could hear the run of water from the bathroom and Banks singing randomly to songs that dropped into his mind. After laying in bed idly for a minute with nothing but a small piece of the blanket covering my naked body, I raised my torso slightly from the bed and turned my head to look at the clock hanging on the wall a good distance from me.
“My! it's already 9:00am. I absolutely have to get myself into executing the schedule for the day!” Just then, I heard a subtle knock on the door.
“who is it?” I asked, while trying to suppress a yawn.
“It's Sophia” a female voice responded. Sophia is our house keeper. An amazing lady in her late twenties. One thing I absolutely love about her is her introverted and melancholic nature. It's just precious not having to be consistently around extroverted people with energies that jumped off the walls.
“Hold on” I responded, as I grabbed a pair of shorts and a shirt to put on before heading to the door.
“how may I help you darling?” I asked
“There are visitors asking to see you and Mr. Drey. They are Dr. Coker and your friends Mrs. Ada, Miss Sylvia, and Miss Tiana.
“Alright dear, thank you. Meanwhile, tell the cook to offer breakfast to everyone including the visitors and you can get them something to drink” I said before turning back into my room and shutting the door.
Just then, Banks came out from the shower with nothing but a towel tied around his waist. Water dripping from his hair and beards, and his abs looking as sexy as ever.
“The Lord is good!” I blurted out as my eyes scanned him from head to toe.
“Good morning Queen” he said, while grinning from ear to ear. “Where's my morning Kiss?”
"Good morning His royal majesty" I responded as I walked towards him, and planted a quick kiss on his lips.
“We have visitors. Dr. Coker is here, and so are my friends” So, you can just go and see them while I freshen up and I'll be down with you as soon as possible.
“Oh okay. Well, I'm sure your friends want to do a bit of chit chatting with you, and I'm not sure that I'll be very entertaining to them. So, please hurry.” he responded, before walking over to his closet to get something to wear. I then rushed into the bathroom for a shower.

In twenty minutes I was refreshed, fully dressed and ready to head down. As, I walked out of my room and down the stairwell, I could hear voices and the sound of laughter coming from the parlor.
“Babe, na wa for you oh! A familiar female voice unexpectedly said behind me, therefore startling me, and making me jump. It was Ada, my Nigerian friend who has such intoxicating extroverted energy. I turned to look at her smiling face.
“Abeg, hug me jhor” she said.
With smiles, I went in for that hug. “One and only Ada, how are you this woman?”.
“I'm fine oh, just the way you left me. Meanwhile, this your house is big ehn. I left the others to look for a restroom, and I almost got lost. Your housekeeper came to my aid”. Meanwhile, we and the girls have a lot to discuss. You know it's been long we saw, and seeing you is as difficult as applying for American visa”
"I'm sorry. Okay, let me say hello to Dr. Coker, and we will make use of the other sitting room for our privacy"
“Nice, another thing, that Dr. is fine. My God! Only you, fine husband, and fine doctor. Okay, come” she said, slowly pulling me to herself as she dropped the tone of her voice to a whisper. “Is he still nursing feelings for you?”
“Who?” I asked.
“Dr. Isaac Coker! Who else?” she replied.
“Ada, it's okay Biko, I don't know what you're talking about. Something that happened a long time ago, someone will not rest”. I said in a bid to shut her up. Also, Ada is my closest friend in our circle. So, I managed to pick a few Igbo words from associating with her, and I know that Biko means please.
“Okay ma, but we will finish this conversation later o!” She responded.
With that, I opened the parlor door and we walked into a room full of happy people. For the strangest reason in the universe, the first person that I locked eyes with was Dr. Coker. Besides being our family doctor, and the medical specialist in our foundation, he was also one of the closest friends to my husband. My eyes quickly scanned him from head to toe, and honestly, he looked good. No wonder Ada was praising his looks minutes ago. His hair was nicely cut, those beards were perfect, and he looked dashing in his crisp dark colored suit. Then, there is the fact that this man never wears a tie. Oh no! He prefers to leave the first three to four buttons on his shirt open to reveal his well defined chest and the little silver chain that adorned his neck. Alternatively, when he decides to look a bit modest, he will opt for a neck scarf instead of a tie. Obviously, today he did not feel like being modest.
“Good morning Dr. How are you?” I said, after noticing that I’ve probably been standing there longer than necessary, just looking at him.
“Good morning Rosetta, I'm perfect” He responded as he looked at me intensely, and extended his hand for a handshake.
After briefly shaking his hands, I turned to my girl friends, Sylvia and Tianna and gave them the warmest hug.
“Nice to see you both, my darlings”
“Nice to see you too Girl” they replied.
“Okay, let's give the men some time to talk”
With that, I turned to face Banks “I'll be in the other sitting room my love if you need me”
He nodded in acknowledgement and my girls, and I exited the place, beaming with smiles, and eager to do some catching up.
