There was nothing funny about it anymore.

The last time at the hospital, he and Victor almost got physical because of his teasing. Mimi had to put herself in Victor’s shoes and if there was a lady, hovering around her man and claiming to like him notwithstanding his rejection, she was definitely going to rip the woman apart with her bare hands. She can’t sit and watch wide-eyed as another bitch comes to reap where she didn’t sow.

So yeah, Mimi had to make her stand clear to Ezra now, once and for all. She can’t let any misunderstanding arise between her and Victor especially now things are going well.

“I didn’t say you should reject it,” He grinned at her, “Let’s just say that I was joking around, you don’t have to take it seriously. You can have the jam, I would make more later,” He offered her, feeling generous.

“Stop it,” Mimi said.

“What?” Ezra sensed the swift change in her countenance. “What are you talking about?” He asked, even though he had a feeling where this conversation was heading.

“Alright, this is where I leave.” Arianna took that as her cue to get out of there. She was not stupid not to notice the tension between Mimi and Ezra. They needed to talk it out, whatever it was between them. She trusted Mimi would make the right choice.

As soon as Arianna left, tense silence fell on the both of them until Ezra asked,

.....

“What’s wrong?”

“Are you seriously asking me that?”

Ezra ran his tongue across his teeth and looked at her, “I thought we were cool?” He said.

“If the definition of cool means that I’m bothered by the fact that you are making passes at me, then no, we are not cool.” She told him seriously.

It was rare to see Mimi with such a grim countenance since she always seemed carefree, hence throwing Ezra off balance. One moment they were joking and the next, they weren’t.

“I told you that I like you,” Ezra said.

“Do you really mean that?” Her gaze bored into his eyes, searching for the truth, “Is that truly how you feel? Do you really have affection for a pregnant woman engaged to be married to the father of her child who also happens to be your family’s nemesis? Do you have that much confidence to go against Victor? Are you sure you won’t regret dragging your loved ones into a fight that could have been avoided if you didn’t try to steal another person’s woman?”

When Mimi saw the way his face fell, the answer became clear to her. She said wryly, “I thought as much.”

“In that case, here’s the rules then, I can’t avoid you since Arianna is staying here, which means you don’t make any suggestive comment around that could give rise to misunderstanding between us. Secondly…” Mimi thought over it and well…

“You don’t make any comments at all. I don’t accept your feelings whether sincere or not. Stop the jokes, end it all at once!” She gestured, crossing her hands in an “X” shape.

Breathing, Mimi looked up at him, waiting for what he had to say, but all that greeted her was silence.

“Aren’t you going to say something? Anything?” Mimi was waiting for his response.

“Damn,” Ezra breathed.

Mimi frowned, “That is all?” She thought he would start up an argument with her or try to convince her to give him a chance, annoying her more. Men tend to grovel in front of the woman they like.

“You are quite cold.”

Oh.

“Don’t blame me. I have to draw the lines before it’s too late.” She said to him,

“Is that so,” Ezra shifted his weight from one foot to the other. He asked her, “I never stood a chance with you, right?”

Mimi smiled, “Perhaps in the past, yes. Now, it’s impossible. You would find out that I know exactly how to handle men like you and I bet we won’t even last anyway.”

Ezra scoffed, “What’s so bad about me?”

“You fell for me easily, that’s the problem.” Mimi made a chomping sound with her teeth, “I eat men like you for breakfast.”

Ezra arched a brow at her, “Really?”

“Okay, maybe that was a little exaggerated,”

They looked at each other and broke into laughter.

“Perhaps, we can be friends then,” Ezra suggested.

“Nah, a man and a woman can’t be friends,”

“We’d prove them wrong then.”

“You already have feelings for me, there’s nothing to prove, you dummy, ” Mimi laughed at him.

“I’ll be your baby’s godfather then.”

Mimi’s mouth dropped open, taken aback by his comment.

“You seriously don’t mean that,”

“With every breath of my being.”

“Victor would kill you if he catches you hovering around his kid,” Mimi told him, “You both don’t have a good history together, and putting you both in a room, not to mention with my kid around, that’s a disaster.”

“Don’t worry about it, Mimi,” He placed his hand on her shoulder, squeezing assuredly, “We men have a way of solving our differences,” Ezra said.

Even at that, Mimi gave him a long, hard look, “You are one strange man,”

“No, you simply missed out on a great man,” His pride was simply out of this world.

“As if,” Mimi snorted.

She watched as Ezra picked up the jam and handed it to her, “You should have it. Since I know you like my recipe, I’ll make sure to produce more and send them to you.”

“No, you don’t have to -”

“I insist. I’m taking my role as this baby’s godfather very seriously and I have to provide him with the best nutrition.” He said with a manner of seriousness that left Mimi stunned and she had no choice but to take the jam from him.

“I have to ask though, what’s your secret? I haven’t tasted a strawberry jam this sweet. What did you put in it?” She was curious.

But Ezra answered with a devilish grin, “My semen.”
