Staring out the window, nurmerous questions swarmed my head; could I have ever been able to be here like this all by my self? To ride first class on a plane and have a personal driver take me to my destination without having to offer anything out of my own pockets?

Well, this is what having a rich best friend can help you achieve.

My name is Sonia Desmond, a twenty four year old graduate just trying to navigate life at her own pace. I'm driving through the bustling, beautiful yet peaceful roads of Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria in a fancy car I could never dream to own myself.

The expensive flight, the free yet exquisite food, the free ride, these were all made possible by my best friend Amanda Johnson, someone whose position I could never attain in this lifetime.

We've been friends since I could remember mostly because our mother's were best friends too. If not, I'm not sure we would ever bat an eye at each others direction because Amanda's parents were insanely wealthy.

Mine on the other hand weren't poor neither were they rich but Amanda's, the things I see as luxury was what she experienced everyday since she was born.

She wore designers, rode in fancy and expensive cars, wore the best jewelries, traveled to places I've only seen on television... how do I put this... Her life feels like a fairytale to me.

Still, despite all these, she never looks down on me, we were tighter than even blood sisters and we care a lot for each other. Even now, she went out of her way to make my trip into this unfamiliar land a memorable one.

I was posted here for by the NYSC to serve my country and she being the good person she was, she invited me to stay in her home as long as I want instead of having to burn millions in renting my own apartment, coupled with feeding and every other little expenses.

I was beyond grateful after her invitation because I didn't know how I was going to scale through for months on my parents' measly allowance. Getting a house in this city isn't as cheap as it should be.

I don't know if mere thanks would be enough to let her know about how happy I am to be here. Time passed by quite fast and before I knew it, the car had stopped in front of a very large gate.

It was pulled open by someone inside and the huge mansion came in view. After the driver had parked somewhere safe in the driveway, I emerged from the car, my eyes taking in the gorgeous view of what seemed like a fancy resort.

I couldn't even see where the large fences ended. The surroundings was that enormous, coupled with different houses, rather mansions around. It seemed more like an estate to me. I've never seen a place this beautiful and serene.

My stares were cut off when I felt a warm body on mine "Sonia!" The familiar voice rang out, her arms tightening around my body.

I smiled softly and returned the hug, my nose catching a whiff of her scent. She smelt nice, really nice, like wealth. Well, what was I expecting, it's Amanda of all people.

She pulled out of the hug and her gorgeous face came in view.

"It's been a while, hasn't it? I've missed you so much." She muttered, her milky white teeth glittering under the sun.

"I know right? Since you've decided to marry early and leave us single ladies alone." I answered with a small pout.

She chuckled and lightly hit my shoulder; "Jealous?" She teased.

I mean, who wouldn't be? You should have seen the wedding ceremony that happened in our hometown at Oyo state three months ago. I know Amanda's family was wealthy but her husband, he was on a level that I never knew a young man like him could reach.

He is so fucking rich and even this large estate, I'm sure he owns it. And you want to know what makes it better, that man is drop dead gorgeous. Like, you should have seen him up close, he looked like a Greek god.

At times, I start to wonder why my own is different. Amanda has everything a young lady could ever dream of and God still keeps blessing her even more as if people like me don't exist.

I put on a tight lipped smile and hit her back with equal playfulness;

"Why would I be jealous? I'm not even ready for marriage yet."

I lied! If I should find someone like her husband, you think I would think twice about settling down??

She just smiled and wrapped our arms together; "The sun's getting hotter, let's get you settled in." I let her pull me into the mansion closest to us. I guess this is where they were staying.

The outside really didn't do any justice to the beauty of the insides. The while building was well furnitured, I'm pretty sure it was either by Amanda or her mother because they both have exquisite taste.

As we walked on, I came across their wedding photo. Seeing him again, I felt something familiar stir in me just like the last time I saw him up close. I quickly shook my head to wipe off the ungodly thoughts and turned to face my unaware friend.

"I hope he isn't going to be mad about me staying here."

Like she could already tell who I was talking about;

"How many times do I have to tell you that you're always welcome to our home. Anthony knows about this and he has opened his gates to you." That one sentence seemed to really lift my spirits.

He wants me here? Even better, he knows about me?? What am I saying? I'm Amanda's best friend so of course he'll know about me.

Amanda took her time in giving me a really long tour round the house. By the time we got to my assigned room, my feet were already starting to hurt. There, I noticed my things had already been well arranged for me. I guess one of the workers brought them here.

After talking for a while, she left me to freshen up. I prepared the bath tub with the scented soaps already in place for me before stepping in. Oh my, this feels really good.

While in there, my mind couldn't help but drift back to his picture. I had almost forgotten how radiating he looked. He's so... God.... my hands had unconsciously moved down to my womanhood and with his figure still playing in my head, I touched myself.

I was a moaning mess, writhing and grunting in pleasure as I imagined him being the one doing those sinful things to me instead. By the time I realized what I was doing, I had already let out all the pleasure within me. I stood up quickly, while berating myself about what I had just done.

He's my friend's husband, I shouldn’t be having such sinful thoughts. So, I cleaned up my body, acting like what happened in the bathtub never did.

After getting dressed, I walked back into the living room and there he was, standing upright, so handsome but.... his attention was all over my friend. I felt my heart ache but I quickly smiled to cover up my jealousy.

Their little loving moment was interrupted after I let out a small cough to announce my presence. He moved his body away from her a bit, his eyes turning to face me and I instantly started to feel self conscious underneath his gaze.

"Baby.... you remember my friend Sonia. I told you she'll be staying here with us for a while." Amanda's coquettish voice pulled me out of his gaze and he smiled softly, before walking up to me.

He pulled his hand out; "It's nice to meet you Sonia.." That enchanting voice... that was all it took for me to fall deeper for him despite the odds being against me.

Hours turned into days and days into weeks and I never failed to swoon every single time I was in his presence. At first, he never noticed me since he has a gorgeous wife always by his side but after some time, I started to feel his gaze on me.

I first thought I was imagining it till I caught him red handed. He quickly turned away shyly like a kid but I knew I didn't mistake it, he was staring. He finally saw me!!

You have no idea how happy I felt. The erotic dreams that night... they set my body on fire, leaving me wanting more, making me beg for the real deal.

Like the world was on my side, soon, Amanda came with the news that she had to travel back home for some family issue. Since her husband still had things to take care of, he stayed behind to entertain me, the guest and might I say, the best entertainment of my life.

Our feelings and deep longing for each other made us taste the forbidden fruit, despite having someone as beautiful and kind hearted as Amanda in our lives.

We didn't think twice in betraying her and letting our emotions take over and after, he left me gifts I had never recieved from a man or even my parents. Wads of cash, luxurious material things, a car of my own and a lot more.

Now, you must be wondering, was it worth it? Was having what I always wanted worth betraying my best friend?

Yes... it was and I would do it again in a heartbeat if I was given another chance.
