Mrs.williams was having a phone call conversation with Jayden over Amanda’s release.
“Yes son, what do you think?” There was a pause and she sighed.” I understand you are worried, but I don’t she will ever bother us again, am doing it because of the little sympathy I have for her mother”. There was another pause.”Trust me, son, if she bothers us, she won’t be given any other chance”. She smiles.”Thank you, I know you will have a change of heart”. She chuckles.”I am happy to hear that, so, how are Maya and my grandchild? hope you are taking care of them.”.

” Really? We just chatted a while ago and he told me he is here”.
“I was here, I didn’t see him walk in”.
” Let me call him” ” She dialed his number and Ryan picked up.”Where are you? Why did you lie to me that you are here when you know you are not, are you playing a prank on me?”. she said angrily and there was a pause. “Of course, I am here, the lady in the bar told me you are not here and that she hasn’t seen you walk in”.She hung up and sighed angrily, not too long, they saw Ryan walking in their direction and Mia was surprised, Lisa stares hard at Mia.” Did you lie to me?”.
“No, I didn’t know he was around, seriously, I didn’t see him walk in”. Mia said.

” So, tell me, do you always spend your time here?”. she asked.
“How do you mean?”.
” You know what I mean”.
“This is the only place I can relax”. he said and then the door opened, One of the staff walked in with their order, and Ryan wondered why she was the one bringing in their order and not Mia. ” Where is the girl at the bar, why is she not the one serving us?”. he asked.
“She asked me to bring it because she is attending to someone at the bar”. she replied.
” Ok”.
“Thank you sir” ” She bowed and left.

“I know right”. He brought his card to pay for the drink and Mia refused to take the card from him.” What’s wrong?”.
“Am sorry sir, the manager said you shouldn’t pay for any drink “. she said.
” Sir?”. he asked confusedly and then turned to Lisa. “Can you wait for me in the car?”.
” Sure” She kissed his cheek and Mia scoffed and then Lisa left.
Ryan sighs and turns to Mia.
“Why? And why are you calling me sir?”. he asked.
” Am just trying to be polite in front of your girlfriend, I don’t want her to think I am being rude by calling your name “. she said.
” Girlfriend? “he scoffed. ” She is not my girlfriend, Lisa is my cousin”. he said and she could see how relaxed she looked.
“You don’t have to tell me that”.
” Why shouldn’t I? I could see how paled you looked when you saw us together”.
“Why should I look pale? Listen, Ryan, you don’t need my consent to do what you want”.
” What if I want to? “He said and they got interlocked with each other eyes.
” I “She broke their gaze and cleared her throat nervously.
” I will take my leave now”. He turns to leave and Mia voices out.
“About the other day at the dinner, it was a friendly dinner, Justin is my old-school course mate”. she said nervously, and Ryan smiled secretly to himself and walked away, Mia smiled after him
” You took longer than I expected”.Lisa said immediately Ryan entered the car and she could see how glamorous he looked.
“Sorry about that, I was just trying to sort out some things”. he said and started the car engine.
” Why are you looking glamour all of a sudden?”.
“Meaning”.
