We met at a pub beside his office. We had a smooth conversation. I knew then that I wanted to talk to him again. I said to him, “We should exchange contacts so we can get to know each other very well.” He gave me his number without hesitation. Maybe, he wanted what I wanted too; To get to know each other very well.

We talked on the phone as if we were old friends. On the third day after we met, I was out with some friends when his call came in. He asked what I was doing and I told him I was out with friends. He said, “Why don’t you come and visit me at home if you have the time?”

I knew it was too soon to be in his house. There was hesitation in my response but I eventually accepted to go to his house. After all, he was someone I wanted to be with. I said goodbye to my friends and left for his place.

When I arrived, he started acting naughty. An accidental touch here, an intentional grab there. It was very clear he wanted something to go down right at that moment. I’m not the kind of girl that goes down just like that. It takes knowing who I’m dealing with. It takes security and care. All these come with time so I told him, “Not too fast. I like you but I can’t just jump into bed with you. I have to get to know you better. Let’s take our time.” He responded, “You are right. We should take things slowly.”

So, we did nothing that day.

One day I visited him and found a woman’s slippers in his room. I asked, “Whose are these?” He answered, “I can explain. Give me a little time.” How much time would one need to explain the owner of a pair of slippers? I tried my best to get the information out of him but he wouldn’t say anything apart from asking me to give him some time. I waited for him to leave for work the next day so I can carry out further investigation.

I searched his room. I left no stone unturned. Every corner was inspected. What I found in his wardrobe was quite a sight. There were women’s clothes. The clothes were carefully arranged in three rows. The sizes and styles of the clothes indicated that they belonged to three different people. I was confused. I had so many questions running in my mind. At some point, I wanted to run to his office to ask him questions. On second thought, I decided to wait for his return. When he got home, I opened his wardrobe and showed him what I found. He said again, “Calm down dear, I will explain everything to you.” I forced myself to appear calm as I sat to listen to him.
