Same Old Love

Chapter 25

After five years of being freed from compulsion.

"Here" I said placing a beautiful navy blue hat on Tania's head.

"And you are done." I said taking a step back, taking in her complete view.

"How do I look?" She asked getting up the chair.

"Beautiful." I said.

She smiled taking a deep breath.

"Don't worry Lord Kingston fancies you, he would be awestruck when he sees you." I told her.

We laughed.

"Well he should be or else what's the point of getting all dressed for two hours?" She joked.

"Relax, Besides I think I  need a mop." I said.

"Mop?" She asked confusingly.

" Yes, how am I suppose to clean the floor when he will be drooling all over the floor looking at you?" I smirked.

"What! You are nut" she said laughing.

*ring*ring*

The door bell rang.

I looked at the clock.

"Seems like he can't wait. I will get it." I said running towards the door.

I stopped my track when I couldn't sense anything.

I opened the door and was surprised to see the person in front of me.

"Xavier" I said.

"Hello Serena, you look beautiful." He said taking my hand in his and kissing on top of my hand.

I pulled my hand from his grasp.

"Who is it?" I heard Tania asking from the room.

"It's ...  It's Xavier." I said. Still frozen on my track.

"Will you keep the guest waiting at the door step, baby doll?" He asked .

I gestured him to come in, not sure if it was right decision to let him in.

Tania entered the living room and she was shocked like me.

She looked at me for help. I simply shrugged.

Tania sat opposite to Xavier and I joined her.

"What brings you here?" She asked.

"The favor." He said simply.

"Favor?" I asked not sure of what he meant.

"Yes, It's time to return the favor." He said looking at Tania.

She looked at me and then at him.

"Ofcourse, what can we do for you,Xavier?"she asked.

"Two things" he said showing his index finger and middle finger.

We stayed silent waiting for him to continue.

"One from you and one from Serena." He said looking at me.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Your part comes later baby doll, I have my business with Tania and then from you."

"What do you want from me?" Tania asked.
