Chapter 153: I Miss Her

Anemia came back home much later than expected. Justin had been restless when she called to say she would be late. We weren't thinking that late when seven o'clock rolled around and she wasn't home. She told us not to wait for her to eat dinner and that she would grab something. Justin didn’t like that either; we ate with him brooding, and it was interesting to see him like this.

“What is going through your head right now?” I asked him after the sound of forks and knives on plates as we ate silently, and it was starting to drive me crazy. He sighed and put his fork down; he had barely touched his food.

“I guess I’m used to working so much that it keeps me occupied. I miss her right now, and she has been gone for almost twelve hours. It is driving me crazy,” he said, running his hands through his slightly too long hair, and I smiled softly.

“How do you think she was feeling when we were gone? Probably the same, even if she never mentions it. You own the place; you could go see her at any moment,” I said to him, and he made a face.

“If I did that, she would probably make a comment about me being a helicopter parent instead of a hot boyfriend,” he said, putting a steamed carrot into his mouth.

I tried so hard to hold back the laughter that was bubbling up at the look of his pouting face. It was f*cking adorable , but I knew he would not like that. I cleared my throat and looked down at my plate. I missed her too, but I also knew she would be home at the end of the day. I thought it was so sweet that he missed her, and I also knew that under regular circumstances, we would all have been at work today, and he wouldn’t be feeling this way.

“Well, just know it is only temporary. We will all be at home when we get back, and there will be no sitting around and waiting,” I told him, and the garage door beeped as it opened.

Justin was out of his seat in a flash. I heard a grunt and then a giggle. I was silent for a moment and then I heard a moan. Well, I continued to eat my food, letting him have his time. After a minute, they came into the dining room. She looked tired, but she was glowing, and I smiled at her.

“Hey, gorgeous, how was your day?” I asked as she rounded the table to give me a kiss.

“Amazing, only one of the candidates showed up. One called an hour later that she was almost there, and the other one never contacted me. I hired Amaki; we got along so well, and she is such an amazing lady. She got along with everyone too; they loved her,” she said, sitting in Justin’s lap when he didn’t give her anywhere else to go.

He went to work on kissing her neck and shoulders through her dress and massaging her body. She was affected by his advance but was trying so hard to focus on me.

“That’s great, the one who should be a good fit. You worked with Jonny today. How did that go?” I asked. Her eyes closed slightly as Justin started to massage her feet. She hummed before responding in a breathy voice.

“Umm, Jonny was great. He was smitten with Amaka though; apparently, they had history. I am curious to see what happens over the next six months, but they clearly still like each other. But I am not a matchmaker of any kind, so I am going to stay out of it,” she said, leaning her head back on Justin’s shoulder.

“That feels so good, my shoes are so comfortable, but I’m not used to wearing heels for that long.”

“I will rub your sexy feet whenever you want, babe,” he said, kissing her neck again.

She cut her eyes to me and gave me a look. Justin was being super clingy, and neither of us had seen that side of him yet. I don’t think he hated it, though.

“I made some cheesecake, do you want some?” I asked her, and her eyes lit up.

“Oh yes, I can eat it in the bathtub, though. I need a soak,” she said, and Justin’s head popped up.

“No worries, I will go start the bath for you, so when you are done, you can just slip in,” he said, and gently moved her to the other seat and headed out of the room.

“Oh my goodness, what happened today? He has never been like this,” she said, and I smiled.

“He just missed you. He has been pouting since you called and said you would be late,” I replied, cutting a slice of the cheesecake and handing it to her.

It was her favorite dessert, and I made it just for her. The first bite, she closed her eyes and moaned softly, and the sound went right to my d ck. F ck, the sound she made is so sexy.
