Mr Shaw sighed deeply and pushed the door open. Mrs Shaw was a little startled and wondered if he had heard anything. "so this is the kind of life you want your daughter to lead?" Mrs Shaw didn't expect this, she was dumbstruck "I'm asking! you now let your daughter sell her body just for material things?"
"hey she's not selling her body, besides she's grown up now, there's no problem with her having a boyfriend who can take care of her" Mrs Shaw replied solemnly "after all, this could be the man to marry her". Mr Shaw laughed like he had heard the biggest joke of the day "Are you just trying to act stupid or you really are stupid? who told you that his going to marry her? did he tell you he would marry your daughter? what kind of a woman teaches her daughter such values? you are suppose to advise her not to do things that she's not suppose to do but instead, you tell her to enjoy herself and do everything possible to keep him, are you mad? do you want your daughter to get pregnant or something?" Mr Shaw lost it, he couldn't control his anger, this woman had crossed the line. Mrs Shaw finally spoke out with a sharp voice "let me tell you something Mr Shaw, my daughter has just shown us that she's more than capable of taking care of herself unlike her elder brother. you always want to be against our daughter all the time, no matter what you say, I will support her through out the way! she turned and walked out. Mr Shaw shook his head helplessly. Each time he spoke, he was being accused of being against his daughter, how can a father be against his own daughter, I am just trying to look out for her, her well-being, I love my daughter so much and I don't want her to ruin her life. he helplessly sat on the bed and made a facepalm gesture showing how frustrated he was.At this time, Fortune's father was running up and down trying to send his daughter money for her up keep. at least her tuition fee was paid for and the only thing remaining was her up keep money. It was like this every semester and he got used to it. He sent his daughter money as soon as he managed to raise the appropriate amount. Fortune who was chatting with Zack was suddenly interrupted by her phone, she saw that it was her dad and answered the phone with a smile"dad, how are you?"Mr Williams was overwhelmed upon hearing his daughter's voice, "I'm fine dear, how is everything that side?" "everything is ok dad, you don't have to worry about me" Mr Williams smiled "good, I called to tell you that I have deposited the money into your account, just check on the balance to make sure it's fine". Fortune smiled "thank you Dad, I love you so much" "ok darling, I will hung up now". the call got disconnected and fortune looked at Zack who was staring at her. "what's wrong? do I have something on my face?" fortune asked. Zack smiled without shifting his gaze "when you are staring at a rose flower, you can't look elsewhere, you will stay put and continue to admire it until you have the urge to pluck it"fortune chuckled, "what makes you say that?".Zack smiled "nothing, I'm just expressing myself, you are as beautiful and delicate as a rose". fortune smiled shyly and dropped her head. "fortune if I say I like you, would you give me a chance to be a part of your life?" Fortune never expected this, she stammered, "y-you l-like me?" Zack smiled "isn't it obvious enough that I like you? or maybe you are not yet over your ex and still need time". Fortune immediately shook her head "oh no, it's not that, I was caught off guard, I never thought you would like me". hmm Zack nodded " I see, well the truth is right in front of you, what response will you give?" Zack spoke straight forwardly " please allow me sleep over it?" fortune responded . Zack smiled and nodded "don't worry about anything, even if we are dating, I won't force you to do anything that you don't want to do, neither will I compel you into doing something you are not prepared for so don't think too much ". Fortune was stunned, this guy could read her thoughts so easily, she felt a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly.Asia was still with Chris in the restaurant, they were literally having a chat, looking at the time, it was almost 1pm in the afternoon. She took out her phone and directly called the first number in her call log which was Fortune's number, at this time, fortune who felt a little awkward was saved by her phone, "yes Asia, watsup?" she answered casually "fortune it's lunch now, me and Chris were thinking of buying take away food packs for the four of us, what do you think?" fortune immediately agreed without hesitation, she had to admit that she felt weird the moment Zack expressed his feelings for her "yes sure, please do that". "hey fortune before you hung up, ask my brother if he has any special order" fortune looked at Zack who was playing games with his mobile phone"Zack, Asia is asking if you have any special orders for your lunch". Zack responded without lifting his head "I will have whatever you choose". "uhmm okay". "Asia, me and Zack will have rice with beef stew". "alright Mam, whatever you say" Asia responded and hung up. "that's your favorite meal?" Zack asked still concentrating on his game. Fortune smiled "yes" is all she said hoping Zack would lift his head and look at her. She even made sure to respond in a dry tone, just to get his attention but this guy completely ignored her. In the first place, why am I trying to get his attention she thought.The call got disconnected and fortune was all over Zack. "Come on Zack did you have to say that, do you want to make my relationship with my dad awkward? Come on don't be so mea "At this moment, the back door of the car was suddenly opened, Zack and fortune simultaneously looked at who opened the door and saw Asia carefully sitting inside the car."Fortune, you have already tied your life to this big bully, you need to get used to it" Asia said in a mocking tone. Fortune and Asia enjoyed the ride while Zack drove to a restaurant not far from the main villa where they lived. The three had their lunch and went back.Ashley sat in his room, he was in such deep thought that he didn't hear the door being opened. "Ashley, do you have a few minutes to spare?" Asia asked politely. Ashley didn't respond or look at her, Asia raised her brow and looked at Ashley, she noticed he was in deep thought."Ashley,
Asia sat in her room in deep thought. She sighed heavily then stood up and grabbed her bag then walked out. She asked one of the driver's outside to prepare the car and sat in the back seat of the car. "Ma'am, where am I taking you?" The driver asked respectfully."Hunter's view cemetery " Asia responded lazily. The driver nodded then drove out... ashley stood near the window and looked at the car that drove out, he sighed helplessly and questioned if he was doing the right thing. He knew that Asia would probably never love him cause she had always loved Chris. What will be left of md if she doesn't fall for me? I probably will never have a child in my life cause she will never allow me touch her, but what kind of a life will that be? Am I subjecting my life to some sort of self imprisonment because of love? Ashley shook his head...no, why am I thinking this way? I can't turn back on my decision, I must
Zack just nodded, he had no other words to say, No answers to give as to why all this happened. Mr Jacobs turned and walked out leaving zack in the ward. A few hours slowly went by , zack was still in the ward, he tried to sleep a couple of times but couldn't. "Chris, don't go, you can't leave me, please come back. If..if you leave, what's there for me to live for? OK fine...fine, if you want to leave, I will come with you. I...I will come with you, wait for me, Chris! I said wait for me, don't leave me please. I need you, don't go" Asia said in her sleep as tears flowed down her face. Zack was taken aback by this, it was obvious this dream felt real for her. He walked up to Asia's bed side and patted her on the cheek. "Asia, wake up, it's just a dream, wake up! Come on wake up""No, Chris come back, come back to me""Asia wake up! Zack said in a loud voice.Asia opened her eyes, she sat u
Asia felt like her world was coming to an end, everything around her began to spin uncontrollably until everything suddenly became dark. Asia passed out at this moment, "doctor, hey nurse. Take her to the ward, let her rest. Give her something that will help her rest" zack instructed the nurses around then sat on a corner in deep thought. At this moment, he didn't even what he was thinking of. Fortune wiped her tears then walked up to zack's side. She sat beside him and threw herself in his arms , a hug is all she could do right now to comfort him. Fortune thought about Asia's state and shivered upon thinking of the scene earlier. Exactly how will Asia manage without Chris in her life. Half of her life has been about him, she has loved him for so many years and now, he is gone. Zack held fortune in his arms as he blankly stared at the wall in the opposite direction. Chris father was comforting his wife, he looked at
At this moment there was a loud roar of thunder and it soon began to rain...with the wind and lightening, Zack felt even worse by the sudden storm. He felt like the whole world was closing in on him. He had never felt this helpless before , the pain was suffocating him , no air conditioning was enough to make the sweat off his forehead stop. He had no idea on how to console Asia or what words to use... Or find something to say that could make her feel better. Zack paced back and forth thinking of what he would do next. Kevin is dead, Alex was also dead, what else could he do in the name of revenge? This feeling was something he had never felt before, he suddenly screamed with all his might then fell to the ground again, panting and sweating. "Zack you need to calm down, it's not like Chris is dead so just..."Only a miracle can save him at this moment" Zack interrupted absent mindedly. Terry was stunned, could it be that the situation is this bad?
Asia smiled at her father and they slowly walked in. Fortune and camilla went in last and sat at the back . Asia felt a little nervous but with her father beside her, she felt relieved."Chris, I give my daughter to you, my only daughter. Love her, take care of her as a wife, respect her and always make her happy" Asia's father said this with so much emotions, he stepped back and motioned for the priest to begin the ceremony. Kevin who was in the crowd signaled for Alex to get ready, he was not willing to wait for Chris and Asia to be pronounced husband and wife....At this moment, Kevin and Alex both stood to their feet, Ashley who was a little absent minded noticed this action and subconsciously yelled in a loud voice "Asia get down". Chris reacted before the bullet could reach Asia,he stood in front of Asia like a shield, receiving the bullets being shot at him. The church hall was in chaos as everyone lay on the floor screaming
