Mia stood rooted to her bedside with tears in her eyes and a sexy set of lingerie in her hands. It was another failed mission to get her boyfriend, Hugo, to sleep with her.
"Baby, please not now. Let's try to calm down first," He had told her, pushing her hands away from his belt, but she brought them back, trying to turn him on.
"Mia, stop being childish; our relationship is built on other things, okay? We don't need to rush we can have constant sex after our marriage," He persuaded.
"Please let's just do it, marriage can come after I'm dying," Mia pleaded, but Hugo wasn't letting go, nor was he changing his mind, which annoyed her even more.
"Is this how you're going to behave!!" She scolded angrily. "For Christ's sake, we've been dating for over four years now, and you still don't want to touch me. What do you think this is hmmmm?" She cried rubbing her forehead with her palm in frustration.
"You don't seem fine for now. I'll just let you calm your head, then come back tomorrow," Hugo said, picking up his shirt hastily.
"Yeah, you better go, else I might forget I am supposed to love you and just kill you on the spot," She spat, turning away from him.
"I love you," Hugo whispered, squeezing her shoulders before running off.
Yes, that was all he was good at: squeezing her shoulders, giving her pecks on her forehead, and always avoiding her hands when she tried to hold him in public.
"Bastard," Mia mouthed staring down at the lingerie in her hands.
*Ring*
*Ring*
"Did it work? Please say it worked!! I'm dying to hear the whole gist; come on, start talking." Maja gushed from the other side of the phone.
"If it worked do you think I would have the chance to pick your calls?" Mia replied moodily, sitting on her bed.
"Gosh!! What's wrong with this guy? What was his excuse this time around?"
"The usual. Wait till after we get married bla bla bla," She sighed.
"Calm down sweetie everything is going to be okay,"
"It's not. I mean, how do I even come out bold to tell people I can't have sex with my boyfriend? I've been masturbating for the past four years and I have someone who should be there for me. Am so tired," She cried, sniffing.
"Are you sure Hugo's not sick?" Maja asked, curiosity taking the best of her.
"No, he's not. Have you forgotten I made him perform a series of tests two years ago? He's not sick. He just doesn't want to," Mia answered, throwing the lingerie across the room.
"If he's not sick then...."
"Then what?"Mia asked hoping for a solution.
"I don't think I should be telling you this but..." Maja said holding her breath while Mia patiently waited. "There's this drug Matilda left with me from last Friday, she uses it when her boyfriend or boyfriends aren't responding well to her," She continued, hesitating.
"What's the side effect of the drugs?" Mia asked, calculating the odds in her head already.
"There's no side effect. You just add it to whatever you want to add it to then it's ready. The amount of drugs you add tells how intense you want the night to be," Maja gushed.
"Why hasn't Matilda said anything about this drug right from the start?" Mia mouthed, not loud enough for Maja to hear tho.
"You were saying?"
"No.. No, nothing. I was talking to myself. Maja, can I have just a little quantity of these drugs?" Mia pleaded, pacing around her room impatiently.
"I don't know, You know how Matilda can be when she's angry. I don't want her biting my head off when she finds out I gave you the drugs," Maja complained fearfully.
"Please Maja you know you're the only one I can rely on right now please I'm about to go insane,"
