After freshening up, I sat on my study chair and brought out some file to work on and placed it on my study table.
A knock was heard on the door. “Come in” I said and Chloe strolled in.
“You work everytime” she frowned looking at the files on my desk.
“More work. More money” I simply said.
“You have enough money, if you don’t work for the next few years, you definitely cannot go bankrupt” Chloe Uttered and sat on my bed.
I said nothing as I continued glancing at the files on my table.
“You look sad. Is something wrong” Chloe sounded worried.
Chloe is my younger sister. Am just two years older than her. She is nice, lively and carefree.
She is a journalist. Why she chooses to study that, no one knows. Chloe have always wanted to be a lawyer but she changed her mind after entering college.
My dad doesn’t care about what she studies, he is more concentrated on me . Am the only male and he wants me to take over his business. My mom is dead. She died in a car accident few years ago.
My dad changed from a nice man to this cold and bossy person. Our communication reduced drastically.
He is still my dad but no matter how hard we try, we can’t be close as we are before.
“Nothing” I answered Chloe gruffly.
“Is it about Scarlett?”
Chloe and I are really close. Even though am always busy with work and we hardly sees each other, whenever we have the chance to talk, I won’t hesitate to tell her everything that is going on in my life.
“Not really” I replied.
“Brother, Scarlett choose to leave you, her loss. She would come crawling back....”
“I don’t want her anymore” I interrupted her.
“That the spirit!” Chloe smiled.
“Ever since you introduced her to me, if you could remember, I told you I don’t like her. I felt a bad aura around her when I saw her. And she is very stupid for thinking of leaving you for dad. How was she able to make dad marry her?”
“She is a slut. Sluts have their way” I huffed.
“I know right, since it not Scarlett that is bothering you. What is?”
I looked at Chloe. “Well, I met someone ”
Her eyes lightened up immediately. “Wow, really?? A girl right? You like her? Is she pretty? Where does she stay?”
“Take a chill pill Chloe” I rolled my eyes.
“Just tell me”
“Just forget it, it nothing....”
“You are joking right. You can’t leave me hanging” she frowned.
“Am serious. It nothing, I just want to see your reaction”
“Argh”
I smirked. “Will go back to work now” I said and faced the pile of files on my desk.
Chloe grumbled and laid on my phone bringing out her phone.
I couldn’t concentrate. I kept thinking about her.
*Do you remember me?*
First of all, I love her bravery. Not all girls can walk up to me and ask. She would have just acted like she don’t know me.
I denied her. I couldn’t miss the confused look on her face when I told her I don’t know her.
*so you are just going to act ignorant right? You had sex with me and....**
I was quite shocked when Asher introduced her as his wife.
Asher works under me in the company. I had no idea he was married. He was employed into the company about a year ago.
But he is suppose to have a ring on his finger right? I didn’t even check.
Even the camille lady. Gosh! I can’t believe I had sex with Asher’s wife.
But why did she come to me when she is married. Why did she want me to admit am the one she met at the club house.
She should have just let it slide and act like nothing happened.
This is crazy! Really crazy. I can’t tell Chloe this, she is going to eat me raw.
**stop thinking about it, Harry** my sub conscious said to me.
Yeah, am not going to think about it again. I probably won’t meet her again.

(Few days later)
Asher came back early and I had to quickly prepare dinner but getting to the kitchen, I realized we have ran out of food stuffs.
I went back to the living room. Asher was busy operating his laptop.
“I need to go to the grocery shop” I informed him.
“There is no foodstuff in the house?” he inquired and I nod in affirmative.
He looked at me then check the time on his phone.
It was just few minutes to 7.
“Take my car keys in my drawer. Come back early” he said and I nods and left for the bedroom.
I took his car keys and exit the house.
I was almost near the grocery shop when an upcoming car hit my car.
My eyes widened as I stopped the car immediately.
I came out of the car and saw Asher’s car was scratched.
Oh God!, Asher is so going to kill me.
“Whoever is in the car should come out. You need to pay for this” I proclaimed.
The driver’s door opened and a man came out of it.
His face came into view and I gasp. Oh my God, it him again.
I remembered Asher introducing him as Harry.
He looked shocked too as he just stood staring at me.
I blinked and then looked away from him.
“Can’t you concentrate on the road uh?!, Now, you have scratched my car”
Oh God! My heart was beating as I said this.
“I would give you the money to repair it if that what you want” I heard him say and I looked up at him.
Wait, what!
His car door opened and a feminine body came out of the car.
Oh good, his girlfriend is here. Jealously ran through my spin.
“What is happening?” She asked looking up to look at me. Why does she look strangely familiar?.
Her eyes seems to widen too. “Wait, camille?”
“Chloe” I said.
“Wow, it been so long. I barely even recognize you” She smiled pulling me into a hug.
Chloe is my high school friend. We weren’t that close when we were still classmates but we do talk once in a while.
After graduation, I never saw her again.
Wait, realization struck me. Chloe is dating Harry?
“Same here. I remember you to be really short” I chuckled.
“Your height is still the same just that you look more prettier.” She complimented and I blushed.
“About your car, am so sorry”
“Oh, it fine”
“I would call a car repairer now.” She said and before I could talk,she quickly brought out her phone and made a call with someone.
“He would be here in a few minutes.” She said and I nodded.
“Anyways, Harry meet my high school friend, Camille. Camille , this is my brother, Harry”
I felt a huge weight left me immediately she said this. So they are siblings.
“Nice to meet you” Harry said without glancing at me.
Perfect! Just perfect.
“Chloe, let go, you already called the repairer” Harry stated.
“What, No! You damaged her car. You are staying here till it gets fixed.” Chloe declared and that made me wonder, who is older?
“Whatever” Harry said leaning on his car.
I stared at him awkwardly. Why does he have to be so cold?
