EPISODE FIVE

•~•

" I said when are you taking your hangover soup?, It's getting cold "Maynard repeated in a bit stern voice and I woke up from my reverie.

Wait.., what did I just think about?

Him kissing me and taking me to bed???

Geez!, That's too far.

" I'm so sorry, I will take it now "I mumbled and and he nodded.

" I got you a dress, Put it on and meet me outside, We are taking the day off, I need to take you somewhere "He mumbled and I nodded.

After taking the soup, I took my bath in his bathroom and I was surprised at the richness of the place.

Waittt, How much does this guy worth?

I put on the dress and meet him outside just like he commanded.

" I'm ready "I said softly and he nodded before leading me to the car.

He led me to the car and was about to walk me to the other seat, I stopped him and he turned to me.

" No need of walking me in, I can take care of myself "I smiled and removed my hand away from his.

" Until I carry you right? "He asked with a scoff and I shook my head.

I quickly obliged to him and he led me to the car.

He continued to drive along the road and I wondered where he's taking me to.

My mind flashed to mum and fleur and I took a deep breath.

She must be quite worried about me.

" I got Fleur's number from your phone, I called her already to let her know you're here with me, Don't worry "He suddenly speak out to clairfy it and I nodded.

" Thanks a lot " I said softly and he nodded.

Soon, We got to a quiet beautiful bridge, He stepped down the car and I also did the same.

Maynard grabbed my hand and led me to the rails at the left side.

I took a glance at the water and gasped.

It's so beautiful and calm.

" Wow, This is pretty "I mumbled smiling and he nodded.

" I seldoms come here, Anytime I'm sad or I feel troubled, I do come here to stare at the water and it helps a lot, I must say "

" Wow, But can I ask you a question? "

" Yes, Sure, you can go ahead "

" You're quite rich and seems to have everything you wished for, Why do you feel troubled or sad?, And anytime you feel like that, Why does this water seems to be the one calming you or cools down your anger? "

" The first time I came here was so funny and embarrassing as well, Then, I had crush on Maya, An indian girl who seems to be extraordinary in what she does, She's the school cheer leader then, A little bit sassy and rude, Before I confessed my feelings to her, I decided to get closer to her by reading together, Helping her settle some bills and treating her mom then, After a while, I gathered all the courage in me and asked her out, She turned me down bluntly and told me she has a boyfriend, Who was schooling abroad, I was so sad, If she knew she's going to turn me down, She shouldn't have let me so close to her, After that she started avoiding me and I came across this bridge that particular day, I don't have any frined then so I ranted the way I like, It was so funny then but I felt calm and in few days, I got over it " He explained and laughed after it, I wiped my tears and he turned to me.

" Why are you crying? "He asked and gave me his face napkin, I collected it and wiped my tears.

" I don't know maybe this is right telling you but it happened to me as well, And that's the reasons why you found me walking alone on the street, Gael was my childhood friend, We did everything together, Including sharing meals, Bed and goigm out to party and clubs in my college days, We almost got intimate then but he control himself well, And I'm thankful we didn't, Sometimes, He will kiss me on my forehead or cheeks or give me a warm hug, I never knew he was in love with Alena then, I was so happy when he told me he's celebrating my birthday for me, I got myself prepared but he disgraced me in the presence of his girlfriend or maybe fiancee, I guess it happens for a reason tho "

" Yeah, And that's why I said I feel so embarrassed anytime I remember it, Now, I feel nothing for any woman, They are all the same "He said in a deep breath and I felt hurt.

They are all the same?

Does that mean he's comparing me to Maya?

" I don't think you've met the loyal and kind ones, Not all women are the same "

" I know, And I'm not ready to meet any "

" Me either "I huffed and arranged my hair properly.

After a while, He came closer to me and I shunned all the spirit of impurities in me.

I don't want to think too far or about anything.

He bring out a shiny diamond necklace and wore it around my neck.

I smiled softly and he pecked me.

" Happy Birthday, Magnolia "

I took a deep breath immediately he got in front of the mansion.

" Is this where you're living? "He asked and I nodded.

" The Hampson mansion? "He asked again and I nodded.

" I live there because my mom is a cook there, After I finished college and there's no job around, I couldn't rent a house for myself so I decided to start staying with my mom, But I have a job already, I will move in the next two months after settling all the debts "I said with a small smile and he chuckled.

" I thought you said you're from a noble family? "He asked and I laughed.

" Yes, At least, I'm not starving, and I don't wear rags "I said with a shrug and he nodded.

" So, I will leave now, Thanks for the diamond necklace, And the time you sacrificed for my birthday, This is the most happiest birthday I've ever celebrated, All thanks to you "

" You're welcome, Goodnight, Magnolia "He mumbled and patted my hair.

I nodded before stepping out of the car.

Waving at him, He drives out of the street and I walked to the gate after making sure he's out of sight.

I was about to open the gate when a loud familiar voice called me.

I didn't turn since I recognized the voice, I scoffed and tried knocking on the gate but he grabbed my hand.

" And why are you after me? "I yelled and fred my hand away from him.

" Magnolia, i can explain all what happened, Trust me, It's not what you think " Gael said trying to defend himself and I laughed.

" It's not what I think?, Then, what is it actually?, Your girlfriend insulting me right at your face but you refused to say a thing about it?, It's not what I think?, You ruined my birthday for me "I screamed with tears stung into my eyes.

He took a deep breath and I realized he's about to cry.

" You're going out with him right? "He asked and I scoffed.

" No, He's my boss, And he celebrated my birthday for "

" What Alena said, I can explain it "

" And what's there to explain? "I asked and he sighed.

" He's not who you think he is "He mumbled.

" And you're not different from him either " I snapped and opened the gate.

He tried coming in but I slammed the door at his face before running to my room.
