He pecked my lips once more as the door opened. We stepped off and headed for the cafeteria. Seated at the table, he distributed the food in front of me, but I noticed he didn’t have anything for himself.
“You’re not eating?”
“I had lunch with Rabbit.”
I smiled. He’d been accompanying me with drop-offs and pickups with her during my time off. With me going back to work, I added him as an approved person to pick her up just in case Tiffany had anything unexpected pop up.
“I bet she loved that.”
“She did. She had to show me her classroom and introduced me to her friends, and anybody else we came in contact with.”
I laughed. “Not her showing you off like show and tell.”
He chuckled. “It was cute. How’s your first day back been?”
“Pretty good. I actually just came out of a surgery.”
“You do that a lot?”
“It depends on the day. I like surgery, though. The body fascinates me. I actually thought about going to medical school, but I’d hate to be away from my baby with those long, grueling hours.”
“I get that. Is there anything else you’d want to do?”
“You know something… I think I figured that out this morning while visiting a patient. I want to start a home health aide company with reputable nurses and CNAs. There are so many people who don’t get the proper care once they leave a hospital setting. It makes a difference in life and death.”
Ahmad nodded. “We can make that happen.”
“What?”
“I said we can make that happen. Whatever you need, I got you.”
“Baby, I can’t let you do that. I can invest the money I have—”
“Nah. Keep your money. Save it for Kari or a rainy day. I don’t care. If you want this business, we can make it happen. I’ll even make sure it’s all in your name so you have nothing to fret over. Don’t look at it as me giving you money or paying for you to start a business. Think of it as an investment. What kind of man would I be if I didn’t invest in you?”
I poked out my lip. “Baby… Ahmad. I don’t know what to say.”
He cupped my chin as he leaned in closer to me. “Tell daddy thank you.”
I grinned. “Thank you, daddy. You can at least let me pay you back in other ways.”
He smirked. “I know a few ways to collect payment. One…” His hand dropped to my throat where he gave a gentle squeeze. It then slid down my torso until he cupped my pussy in his hand. “Two.”
I fought the urge to moan. Thankfully there weren’t too many people in here at this hour.
“I-I can do that,” I whispered.
He chuckled lowly. “Oh, I know you can. You can start tonight. I still have to pay you back for that stunt you pulled on our date.”
I laughed. “You got me that night.”
“Not good enough. I kept thinking about that damn house and wondering how clean it was.”
“Baby… seriously? You really should get help with managing your OCD. It only gets worse.”
“I’m handling it, Nala.”
I raised my hands in mock surrender. He was doing better in some areas, but at times I found it making its way into my house. The man had completely rearranged my pantry and kitchen cabinets. I could admit that the way he did it made sense and made things easier to find, but that wasn’t the point.
