Episode 11
Kyle
I was waiting patiently for her to step out, I am not regretting having time with her so I get to meet her after which today, I won’t be having time with her again.
I brought out my phone looking at the pictures we took earlier, I noticed how cute and genuine her smile is.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Immediately her arrival was announced and behold, she stepped out and a wow escape my lips.
She looks extremely beautiful and perfect now for me to go on a date with her than what she was wearing earlier.
She is such a fast learner as she walked stylishly to me just the way I taught her.
She got close to me but missed her step that was when I held her from falling as we both glanced at each other.
We were in that position for some seconds then I broke the silence with her.
“You look beautiful and different. Shall we?” I asked and she nodded yes.
I zoomed off to a place where I have in mind to bring in someone my for but I don’t know why I brought her here, she is the first for me to bring here maybe because I don’t have another place on my mind.
“This place is beautiful.” She said smiling and I couldn’t resist taking more pictures with her.
I was unaware someone took our pictures without our consent.
I behaved like a gentleman I am to her and adjusted the chair for her to sit and took my seat as well.
The menu was on our table we took and I went through it to pick something not heavy and I noticed she was scared to pick from the menu.
“Why aren’t you picking something? Does it mean you don’t like it here? I can take you somewhere else, we still have time.” I said to her trying to confirm from her.
“No, not at all, I love this place just that don’t you think their food is damn expensive here? What I’m putting on now together can get someone a house here and now you also wish to get me an expensive meal. Sir I don’t think I can pay back after all this kindness.” She said and ended it with a pretty smile.
I smiled at her saying, “As I said, it’s my treat or you wish to go back against what the doctor just said earlier, you need to eat a good and healthy meal so I included expensive to it as well. So don’t be scared of how you are going to pay or not, just pick what you will love to eat.”
She bowed her head again to thank me and I hate it whenever she does that to me or calls me sir, it’s sounds am so much older so I corrected again, “Enough with the sir thing.” I said to her immediately the waitress took our order.
“But why Sir? I’m showing you respect.” She added.
“Bella look, you are here with me as my date and not as a maid, you can be official at home but please be casual here and just call me Kyle.” I responded.
“I don’t think I can address you by your name, sir.” She is so stubborn in repeating the sir word over and over again.
“Then start learning it Bella or you want me to embarrass you here, by calling you a maid in this open place.” I threatened her and it worked out so well as she said,” I’m sorry Kyle”.
“You see, you didn’t die after calling me by it.” I must confess I even prefer her calling by my name because it sounds so nice from her lips.
The waiter brought the food and we started eating as I threw a question at her.
“Tell me your full name.”
“Bella Thompson.” She replied.
” You’ve got any relatives, parents?”
“Yes I do. My parents are alive and I have got a sister whom i senior.” She said taking from the bottled water.
“Oh I see, so what happened to you that you kept on having different marks on your body?” I asked her but the response she gave to me, told me that she was lying and I don’t wish to push it far because it’s her private life, she is not ready to share. But I felt bad she couldn’t trust me with it.
“Are you schooling?”, I asked her and added, ” Don’t take things personally okay, I’m just trying to know you and why you are always thinking.”
“Well, the truth is, I got admitted to college but I stopped because I wanted my younger sister to continue schooling while I assisted my parents by working to raise money for her school and other stuff at home.” She avoided her eye contact with me when she answered the question.
Then I knew she isn’t supposed to work as a maid and her type of lady is rare that any guy will be lucky to have someone like her: one who knows what the meaning of responsibility is and how to sacrifice her happiness for the other person to be happy.
“Don’t you have plans of going to school anymore or you just wished to continue been a maid at my place?” I wanted to know.
It took time for her to give me feedback but I tried studying her reactions whenever she answers my question.
Her response was positive, she wishes to go back to college but not now, then I said silently concluding on the fact that she is having hypertension because she still thinks of going to school but ‘how’ might be the challenge to her – and maybe that’s why she is thinking all the time.
“Tell me the truth Bella. Is this making you think at all?” But she lied again and I just let her be.
We finished the food when I notice she got uncomfortable with the questions, have been asking her so I had to look for means to ease the tension.
“Tell me what you love doing the most and your favorite color, food, place, you got any skills?….”
I notice she became much happier when answering this question.
“I love reading books and watching interesting movies like romantic and fantasy books and films too, my best color is pink and I don’t really have a favorite food but just love eating rice, chicken, and stew then as for skills, I am a good swimmer and also know how to do makeup.” She gave me a happy look when she was done.
“Wow, you are damn good and amazing but still I know there are some things you lied about, I understand very well it’s your private life and I won’t force you to tell me except if you want to but please take the doctor’s advise seriously okay?”
She nodded and we continued talking and laughing, we discussed on so many things that made the day fun for us that was when someone I least expected to be here walked to us.
I know Bella might be confusing cause she doesn’t know her, “What are you doing here Clara?”
To be continued.
The lovely date that got interrupted.
