Chapter 497: 497

497 Make A Move

Bury her now, that was Winter’s wish when she saw Mimi at the entrance with a look that said she would never hear the end of it today. Embarrassed, Winters tried to move away, but Akim must be inside her mind or something because he moved at the same time with her and she ended up being pressed to the fridge in such a way that their chest was touching with their breath mingling together, and if she simply tilted her head a little, they would kiss.

Close up, Winters found Akim had such flawless skin that she found it hard to even find the pores on his skin. He must have a strict skincare routine and she was so jealous – how could a guy’s skin be so fine?

Mimi cleared her throat behind them and they parted immediately, an awkward tension in the air.

“I’ll get the eggs then,” Akim said in the end, scratching the back of his hair.

“Probably, you should,” because I just made a huge fool of myself, she added in her mind. Winters walked over to Mimi who had a knowing look on her face and as soon as she came close enough, said,

“Don’t.”

Mimi pursed her lips together, unable to say the words she had in mind.

“Sure,” She told Winters, miming zipping her mouth and throwing the keys away. However, Winters couldn’t do anything about the knowing smile Mimi was giving her and she hated that.

“Stop thinking about it because it’s not going to work out,” Winters said to her in a hushed tone when she couldn’t take it anymore.

.....

“Who told you I was thinking about it?” Mimi said innocently, eyeing the young man that Winters seemed to have finally found an interest in.

“We are never going to be together,” Winters said with a sigh, watching long and fully as Akim brought the eggs from the fridge and the kids circled him.

“Why?” Mimi queried, taking an apple from the bowl on the counter and taking a greedy bite, “He has a girlfriend?”

“I don’t exactly know, but even if he wasn’t....” She trailed off without finishing the rest of her statement and earned an arched brow from Mimi.

“What? Don’t keep me waiting, girl?” Mimi wanted to know.

Winters looked around to see if anyone, to be precise, Akim, was eavesdropping on their conversation and when she saw that he wasn’t, if anything the kids occupied all of his attention and he couldn’t even look in their direction.

“Listen, the reason I do stuff like this is to save up enough money so I won’t ever lack nor will my children and their generation be poor. My dream is to settle down with an ordinary man and have a small family and we would live happily. But he’s a Spencer, and God knows how much power his family holds, I’m not ready to be caged like that. ” Winters made her point and waited for Mimi to counter that.

“I’m guessing this has to do with your mother,” Mimi said to her surprise and Winters’ was taken aback by the comment.

“No,” She said defensively, “Every step and plan I make is to avoid living like -”

“Exactly,” Mimi interrupted her, “Every step you take is so measured to avoid making the same mistakes as your mother did that you have forgotten how to have fun. You are not your mother and would never be your mother, the both of you are two different people. Sure, your mother found herself in an unfavorable family, however, it was her fault everything happened because she let it happen, meaning that it was her decision. Now, you have the ability to make your own decision, what would you let happen?

“He’s a member of the Spencer family and they might be a patriarchal family, so what? It’s not like the both of you are getting married immediately. The two of you are young people and if you’re not ready for a serious relationship, the both of you could just get to know each other. And who knows, sparks might begin to fly? Although what I see between the both of you is electricity bountiful enough to power a transformer. ” She added under her breath, enough for Winters to hear, “Also, he has a nice ass,”

“Stop it,” Winters frowned. She knew Mimi didn’t mean it and was merely joking around, however, the thought of her friend – wait a minute, was Mimi even her friend? – checking Akim’s ass annoyed her for some strange reasons.

“Oh, someone’s jealous already,” Mimi teased her.

“I’m not,”

“You’re blushing,”

“I’m seriously not,” Winters denied it, turning her face the other way, however, the redness on her cheeks was proof enough.

Mimi came over to her, resting her chin on her shoulder from behind, and saying, “I suggest you give him a shot, and if he’s already together with some chick, his loss, because I’m sure that a badass heroine like you would find a man worthy of your love. But if he is still available, do not hesitate to ride that ass, well, dick, to be exact.”,

“God, too much information, ” The young girl complained, trying to step away from her but Mimi’s grip was strong and Winters couldn’t make a move.

“Listen to me,” Mimi had a serious look this time, “You’re a young girl who hacks the most complicated technology that even the bravest of men dare not to, what then is a guy that you can not conquer? You just think of him as a computer, a sexy one at that.” She motivated her.

“That is gross and an insult to my computers, however, the speech was inspiring, hence you’re forgiven.” Winters said so quietly that Mimi wouldn’t have heard her had she not been listening carefully, “Thank you,”

“What did I just hear? Did someone just say something?” Mimi pretended not to have heard it.

“You heard nothing,”

Winters wasn’t going to repeat herself twice. It was embarrassing.

“Just go ahead,” Mimi gave her a push forward, motivating her to make a move.
