Jane and Cara
"Miss Quinn you didn't tell us of your arrival " Thelma said politely .
" So you could work yourself up around the house and besides I wanted to surprise my brother when he comes back from work."she said walking inside and meeting Lucia standing .
Lucia had heard from their little convo that she is Lucien's sister .
Isn't that more trouble for her .
Lucien was not being nice and now his sister.
"Thelma who is she " Quinn said looking at Lucia who she found beautiful .
" Your brother is in the best position to answer that Quinn " Thelma said carrying Quinn's box upstairs leaving Lucia with Quinn .
" Who are you . Are you my brother's fiancee . You look so beautiful . Why is your hair so long and your skin so smooth " Quinn chattered and didn't notice when Lucia slipped into unciousness almost falling on the floor .
" Holy Molly Thelma Help me. " Quinn said wondering what went wrong
....
"Thelma what the hell did you say happen to her and is Quinn at home " Lucien said over the phone closing up.his laptop .
Now he has to hurry home again all because of Lucia .
This won't surely be the end of him .
Had it been he ignored the shaking bag that night ,he won't be in this state .
He picked up his keys and dashed out of the office making sure he bolted it .
He wasn't one to play with his office privacy .
......
Lucien got down from the car , unbuttoning his sleeves while walking in .
He opened the door and climbed the stairs to Lucia's room .
He met her looking like someone who just woke up .
He scanned round the room but no trace of Quinn but he could smell her deodorant.
He knows her deodorant and wouldn't miss it for the world .
" Good evening sir " Thelma said getting up from the bed .
" I will go get you some water Lucia " she said leaving fast as possible .
" Ok tell me what caused this ruckus " Lucien snapped as soon as she left .
" I am sorry ,I didn't mean to disturb you ,I didn't know Thelma would call you " Lucia said on the verge of tearing up .
" You are sorry ,what would sorry do in this situation , sorry that you made me miss my office appointments " Lucien snapped .
" I just felt my head go heavy with the numerous questions your sister asked and I slipped into unconciousness" Lucia said softly and Lucien ruffled his hair .
"What questions." Lucien asked and immediately the door opened revealing Quinn who had gone to freshen up .
" Big brother." She said and hugged him tightly and Lucien felt his anger dissolve .
" Why the hell did you not tell me you were coming " be said poking her cheeks .
" I wanted it to be a surprise ,how will it be a surprise if I tell you " she said making Lucien smile.
"How is Mum " he asked arranging her hair .
"Mum is fine and she asked me to get you a fiancee while I am here but seems you already did a good job getting one " she said winking and immediately Lucien remembered he was still in Lucia's room and pulled her out immediately which made Lucia giggle .
Lucien just acted like a saint but to Lucia he acts like a complete jerk and a devil .
...
" So who is the lucky girl inside " Quinn asked giggling .
"She is no lucky girl ,just some girl I helped in her unconcious state ." Lucien said dismissively .
"What ! Explain to me because I don't understand at all " Quinn said looking amused .
" I said I saved her from dying and now she has Amnesia and can't remember her roots " Lucien said making Quinn gasp.
" You dont mean it , do you . What a beautiful love story is going to erupt from this " Quinn said smiling making Lucien palm his face .
" You are just been silly . I just said I don't know her and there is nothing like love coming between us " Lucien said walking into his room leaving Quinn at the spot .
" Hmm not on my watch . Who wouldn't want such beauty in the family" she said aloud .
" I won't and make sure you cancel every plan of yours " Lucien said poking his head before shutting the door.
"Arggh " Quinn said disapprovingly .
....
" Boss already left Cara ,I think he has some emergencies to attend to " Jane told Cara who was wearing a happy face walking in the office.
She just scored the deal with Royale Estate Agent.
She couldn't wait to break the news .
"When did he leave " Cara asked sitting on her desk with a sad countenance .
" A few minutes after you left " Jane said typing away on her computer and monitoring Cara's countenance .
" Damn what did he think I am . He just sent me out so he could go have some fun time with his girlfriend " Cara snapped forgetting she wasn't alone .
"You never can tell ,and why so worked up ,he is the boss and you are an employee " Jane said stylishly trying to find out what's on Cara's mind .
" Well I like him and you must not let anyone hear of it . I just felt like confiding in you " Cara said watching Jane's expression if it's negative or positive .
" That's nice ,I never knew . So what have you done to make boss notice you " Jane said with a blank expression .
She was boiling inside .
She also loved the boss so cara shouldn't get in her way .
" Well I have tried to get him to have lunch with me but it's been futile " Cara said with a sad expression and also happy she has someone to confide in .
" Well you have to step up " Jane said twirling her hands on her desk .
"Ok what's do you suggest I do " Cara said getting impatient .
"Uhmmm ..... I suggest . ... But wait you have to Grant my request first " Jane said and Cara ruffled her hair .
" So what's the request . Is it money "Cara said trying to be calm .
Jane's table clock buzzed signifying it was closing hours .
" Well I think we have to talk about it tomorrow over lunch then I would tell you my request ' Jane said picking her small sling bag leaving Cara dissapointed.
Damn"
77 Lucia picked up the pen and jotter as she sat properly on the bed. She started drafting all she needed to do for a new apartment .Her privacy was cut short when Thelma ran into the room with a happy and joyous face .The face you have when you remember your wedding comes up in a week time ." So babe what's up. Why are you so happy this morning . You nearly broke down this door ." Lucia said placing the jotter and pen by herself ." My wedding gown just arrived . Want to check it out with me at the store " She said and Lucia groaned. " Just tell me you want to bring me outside . I will understand " Lucia said with a smirk ." Fine you got me there . You know babe you have locked yourself indoors and it's not good for you at all ,you should at least appreciate the natural view of life . Youh.. " It's okay Thelms , enough of your long epistle,I will be coming with you " Lucia said cutting her off and Thelma jumped up happily making her belly shake a bit." Be careful ,the b
76 " Dos let's leave " she said giving Jay a last look . " Make sure you destroy every feelings you are harbouring for my girlfriend or else " Dos said and went after Camilla . Jay felt his knees go down as his hands shook. Why was faith so cruel to him . All the girls he loves turns out to be in love with someone else . This was him saying bye to relationship for now. " Can't believe that guy spoiled our make out " Dos said with a slight groan. " Don't be too naughty , we are always with each other remember " Camilla said poking his cheek as they went in for the new class . People in the class were surprised to see both of them together but they were not bothered one bit as they went to their seats . Camilla looked at the door and sighed when she saw that Jay was not coming in and the class is about to start . Dos looked at her and sighed before standing up . He left the class and the lecturer came in immediately . " So class how are we doing now . How many of you h
75 California" So we would be having a practical class this morning and its going to be you and your partner , the best team with the least time wins " the Prof said and there were mumuring in the class ." I will advise you to keep shut so you don't miss your name when it appears on the projector . " The Prof said shunning them because immediately almost the whole class payed attention to the projector which had started displaying the names. Camilla palmed her face as she saw her partner's name and turned to see a grin on his face causing her to roll her eyes ."Jay shouldn't be trouble " she thought because from the looks of things, he has feelings for her.There was commotion outside as everyone quickly faced the entrance of the class. Camilla inclusive .A lecturer entered the hall with a new student who was putting on a face cap and a mask and only his eyes were open ."Wow he is hot " she heard some girls say behind her but she wasn't interested as she payed more attention to
74Thelma sighed as she rubbed her back before hugging her tightly to himself .The hug was broken by the steps she had on the stairs. If she was not mistaken , the feet belong to more than one person .She stood up immediately but before she could get to the door. The door opened revealing Derrick and Lucien who walked in.Lucia folded her fist as she stood up from the bed and got into the bathroom there .Lucien sighed as he palmed his face .He had messed up big time ." I think you need to give her space Lucien . That's why she left . Seeing you here is going to aggravate the situation " Thelma said and Lucien sighed ." Please help me talk to her , if I lose Lucia , I might die " he said tears threatening to drop out of his eyes. " Don't worry she won't leave you. She just needs space ." Thelma said and Derick patted his back ." I love you Lucia. Please forgive me soon " he yelled before leaving the room.. ..Lucia sat on the floor as more tears ran down her face .She co
73Derick pulled out of the garage in his Lexus and drove down the road with one destination in mind .Lucien's house .He saw someone wave at the car from afar asking him to pull over .Seems it was those random people who wants free ride due to limited cabs .He decided to help and immediately pulled over and the lady got in ." Where are you headed " he asked looking at the lady with a hint of familiarism in his eyes as he started the car and drove off" Twitzers " she muttered and immediately Derrick remembered her immediately ." You work there right ? " he asked to confirm his suspicion ." Yeah I do " Bella said feigning ignorance. " Well you were the one who packaged my order that day " he said and Bella paused for a while before smiling ." Yes that's right . I remember you now ." She said brushing her hair backwards with her hands . " Ok that's nice , we are here " he said pulling by twitzers . Bella bit her lips wishing that twitzers was far away ." Uhmm can I get your
72Lucia felt her heart tear and her eyes tear up as he left the room .Her heart wasn't willing to stop loving him no matter how hard she tries . .She just find herself falling more deeply for him .She sighed as she took a look at the soup and the hangover pills he had brought .She felt the wave of headache hit her again and she quickly took the pills and flushed it down her mouth with water .How silly of her to think she won't need the pills .She sighed when a thought came to her mind .She has to leave the house , because staying close to Lucien would kill her the more and as for Jason , she felt like strangling him to death . She relaxed her head on the bed rest again as she sobbed the more. Why was her life so unlucky,?Why did the she have to lose her memories?Why has no one looked for her ?Was she this useless...Camilla walked into the school carefree as usual .It was her third day already and she found the school exciting. Everyday she goes home to tell Dos every
