Chapter 106: 106 Why are you here this late?

KOBBY'S APARTMENT.

Calia arrived and pulled over. She hurriedly got down from the car and rushed towards the stairs to Kobby's apartment. After calling Kobby on his cell phone several times and not getting through to him, she became increasingly worried as she drove over. She was afraid that Tiana was alone in the house all by herself. She was also angry that Kobby left Tiana alone and went out. She was going to make sure he got a handful of scolding from her when he returned.

Calia pressed on the door bell and the door immediately opened. She saw Calia standing at the door in her pyjamas and hurriedly gave the little girl a hug as she asked in a worried tone ''Tiana, are you alright? Where did your father go? I called him but he wasn't answering my calls'' Calia squatted to Tiana's level as they chatted.

''I don't know. He might still be in the shower that's why you called and he didn't answer'' Tiana said and Calia frowned. She looked at Tiana a little confused before asking.

''Didn't you say he went out over the phone?''

''I must have gotten it wrong. When I woke up I didn't see him so I thought he went out that's why I called you. I later went to his room and found out he was in the shower. I tried calling you to let you know but your number was also busy:' Tiana said and looked at her innocently.

Calia cussed herself internally for not getting the situation clear and rushing over unnecessarily. Her number was probably busy because she kept calling Kobby nonstop while on her way.

Calia looked at the door and didn't know what to do. She didn't know whether to go back quietly so that Kobby won't find out she came at all or to just wait and get caught by him. What kind of excuse did she have to give that will not make her seem stupid? She really should have thought twice before rushing over. Now that she was here and everything wasn't what she thought it was, what was she going to do? As she thought hard about what to do the phone in her hand started buzzing and she looked at it. It was a call from Kobby. She looked at the phone and decided to turn and leave at once. She didn't think she had the courage to face Kobby. It was late and this was his house.

''Tiana'' Calia whispered to the girl ''listen, aunt is going to leave right now. Don't tell your father I came here okay?'' Calia said and looked at Tiana with a pleading gaze as her phone started ringing again.

''But, my father has seen you already?'' Tiana said and pointed at the door. Calia looked up and saw Kobby standing at the door to his bedroom. He was wearing a black shirt and blue shorts. Calia looked at him and gave an awkward chuckle.

Kobby ended the call and walked towards them. Calia tried to stand up and lost her footing. Kobby immediately grabbed her hand with his one hand and stopped her from falling. He looked at Tiana and the little girl seemed to have realised something and quickly looked away. After a minute of silence, she slowly turned her eyes and met with her father's gaze and they started communicating to each other with their eyes.

''Did you play a prank on her to come here this late at night?'' Kobby asked and Tiana twitched her eyes at him.

''If I didn't do that would you have been able to see her today? You should thank me for bringing her to you. Dad, I've done my part. The rest is left on to you''

''Aunt'' Tiana voiced out.

''Huh?'' Calia zoned out and came back to her senses.

''Aunt, I am suddenly feeling so sleepy. My eyes are so heavy I can barely hold on anymore. I'm afraid I have to go and sleep'' Tiana said and rushed to her room without waiting for Calia's reply.

The room suddenly turned quiet after the little girl left. Calia looked up and met with Kobby's deep gaze and blushed. She pointed at Tiana's door and spoke ''I…I didn't come because I had any ulterior motives. I came because I was simply worried about Tiana. I rushed here without checking facts. When she said she didn't see you, I thought you had left her alone and got worried so I decided to come right away. Since you are already here, then, I should go back home'' Calia stuttered as her heartbeat quickened.

':Why are you perspiring? The air condition is working perfectly fine. Are you sick?'' Kobby asked and stepped closer to her, closing the gap between them as he placed his long fingers on her forehead ''you don't have a fever?:' he said after checking her.

''I'm fine'' Calia said and stepped back.

''Are you nervous?'' Kobby asked and chuckled.

''I am not nervous. This is all your fault. why didn't you answer my call when I called you for so long?'' Calia asked and glared at him.

':I was in the shower. Sorry, next time I will tell you before going to shower so that you don't call and not reach me'' Kobby said and Calia blushed.

''Well, you don't have to do that'' Calia said.

''No, you need to know. So, when you are going to bath, remember to also tell me'' Kobby told her.

''I should go now, since you are home. Is getting late'' Calia said and turned away towards the door. Kobby held her hand and turned her to face him. He stepped forward and trapped her on the door and looked at her.

''What…what is it?'' Calia spoke hoarsely as she looked at the rising and falling of his Adam's apple. She could smell the fragrance from his shower gel. The way he looked at her made her feel weak. She subconsciously stared at his lips and bit her own lips. She didn't realise how enticing her actions were to the man.

Kobby smiled and leaned closer to her lips and said to her in a hoarse voice ''you should really be punished for looking so beautiful'' Calia blushed and felt her heart was on the verge of falling out from the rate at which it was now beating. The man in front of her looked really, seductive and edible. She really wanted a taste of him.

''Then, punish me'' Calia heard herself say and couldn't believe herself. When did she become such a lecherous person? She bit her lips again and that was the last straw that broke the camel's back. Kobby held her tightly against the door. He used one hand to protect her head as he pulled her lips closer to his own and bit her. Calia hissed and almost pushed him away but he seemed to have anticipated her move and used that chance to push his tongue deeper into her mouth, giving her a French kiss.

Calia's fingers held tightly unto his black shirt as she responded to his kisses. She closed her eyes as she sank deeper into the kiss. This was their first real kiss and it was so intense and much better and sweeter than she had thought and dreamt it will be. She instantly gave a sensual moan that shocked herself.

Kobby furrowed his brows and kissed her even more passionately. Her moan just gave him an instant adrenaline rush that he felt he couldn't contain. He suddenly stopped kissing her and looked at her eyes. Calia opened her eyes and their breathing clashed in the tiny gap between them. She was still held securely in his hands. His one hand wrapped around her tiny waist.

Kobby looked at her with lustfully gaze and ran his thump over her soft lips that had turned a bit swollen because of the kiss. His actions aroused Calia and she felt her body reacting to his every move. She had never being this close to any man. he was the first man she was having anything intimate with and it was even much better than her imaginations. While she was in her thoughts she felt his body leaning even closer to her. his hand that supported her head moved down and stopped at her back and she heard him ask.

':You didn't wear a bra?'' Kobby asked and looked at her and she blushed and pushed him away and they both looked away and laughed before they looked at each other again.

''Calia, I know you trust me enough to not even wear a bra at a night like this and come to my house, but don't count on your lack next time because I won't be a gentleman'' Kobby said and walked to the sofa. ''I will take you home''

''No, what about Tiana? She can't be here alone'' Calia said.

''Then, will you sleep here tonight?'' Kobby asked flirtatiously and smirked. Calia flushed and looked away. She walked toward Tiana's bedroom and spoke.

''I will sleep here, with Tiana'' Calia added and rushed into Tiana's room and immediately locked the door.

Kobby chuckled and shook his head. He stood up to go to his room and thought of something. He smiled and walked to Tiana's door and started counting with his fingers ''5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and ….'' The door opened and Calia came out and saw him. She blushed and lowered her gaze as she spoke.

''Can I get a change of clothes? I can't sleep with his dress''

''My clothes are in my bedroom. You can go for the one you want and wear. I am feeling sleepy'' Kobby said and looked at Calia.

''Are you doing this on purpose?'' Calia asked and frowned.

''Yes, I am doing this on purpose. So, will you go in or not? The choice is yours. I don't mind you sleeping without clothes too but that will have to be in my bed with me'' Kobby said and stepped closer to her, he leaned closer to her and spoke softly ''I know that I am handsome and extremely attractive but we can't go beyond kissing tonight. So, wipe your drool, Miss Banks'"
