Ike sat in the living room, watching one of the movies he downloaded on the internet. He had over a hundred movies and wasn’t sure when he would watch them all. His wife, the children and the new maid were fast asleep. The house was quiet and it felt like he was on vacation. Although he just had a couple of hours to himself.
His eyes flickered to the wall clock, then back at the television screen. It was past one. If he returned to bed at four, he would have less than three hours to catch up on sleep and prepare for work. That sounded good enough for his relaxed mind.

Mmesoma woke up with a very parched throat. She got out of bed, tied a wrapper around her waist and headed out. On her way to the kitchen, she saw streams of light coming from the living room. Although the main lighting system was turned off, she could tell that the room was illuminated by the television screen.
She tiptoed to the entrance and peeped. She saw her employer’s husband seated in front of the television, laughing and talking to himself. It wasn’t the first time she had seen him watching movies late in the night. It was almost a daily occurrence, especially during the weekends.
Her eager eyes roamed free. The man was bare chested and the only piece of clothing on him was a pair of boxers. Her gaze lingered on his broad shoulders, chest area, and dropped to his firm muscled thighs. She swallowed hard, wishing she could touch him and feel every inch of his body against hers.
She held herself and groaned. Day by day, her infatuation for him had skyrocketed. It wasn’t just because he was an handsome man, or that he had a good job and a house and an expensive vehicle. The man was also gentle and nice. She loved the way he treated his wife and children. And she often dreamt of being in Lianater’s shoes. She was beginning to nurse a blossoming envy for her boss. She began to wonder if it was possible to gain his attention and seduce him, knowing fully well how much he loved his wife.
Unexpectedly, the man turned his head. Mmesoma froze. She had been caught!
Ike narrowed his gaze when he saw the dark figure at the door. “Mmesoma?”
She cleared her throat. “Sir…”
“What are you doing there?”
Several thoughts ran through her mind. What was she going to tell him? “Erm… I… I was going to the kitchen to get some water. Erm… can I get a drink for you, sir?”
All of a sudden, he realized that he was a bit thirsty. “Okay. Get me a glass of apple juice,” he returned his attention to the television screen.
“All right, sir.” She fled.
Once she got into the kitchen, she pulled a tray out of the rack on the sink, then a clean glass cup. While trying to open the bottle of apple juice, a crazy thought took over her mind. She set the bottle down and pulled off her tee-shirt. Then adjusted her wrapper, making sure that it was loosely tied around her chest.

Ike heard the girl’s footsteps. He pulled the center table closer, so she could set the tray on it.
“Thank you.”
The girl blushed. “You are welcome, sir.”
He reached for the cold drink and took a long sip. Then he noticed that she was grinning at him sheepishly. He raised an eyebrow and set the glass cup back on the tray.
“Erm… erm… oops!” Mmesoma fidgeted with the wrapper and allowed it to drop on the tiled floor, revealing her naked frame.
Shock paralyzed Ike for the next twenty seconds.
She saw the way his eyes slowly roamed her young body and a triumphant smile lit up her face. “Oops… I didn’t tie the wrapper properly.” She picked the clothing up, tied it loosely around her body and sauntered out of the room.
Ike got up immediately. He felt as if he had just been bathed with a pot of hot coals. He was burning all over! What just happened? Was it an honest mistake or a deliberate act of seduction? Should he tell his wife? Should he keep quiet and watch the girl, hoping there wouldn’t be a repeated occurrence?
But, if the girl was truly trying to gain his attention and seduce him, she was on an impossible mission. He loved his wife to death. And he had never looked at another woman since he got married. And he wasn’t going to start now.
What’s wrong with little girls of these days? Ike fumed, his appetite for watching movies had evaporated.
He marched out of the room, thinking of waking his wife and eating her all up.
