THE HOSPITAL
Mia was seated next to Ryan on the bed as she held his hand tenderly. Ryan was still unconscious with a white bandage tied around his head and a drip fixed on him.
“Ryan”. She called and rested her head on the bed sobbing.
” Mia”. Ryan called weakly as he caressed her hair. quickly Mia raised her head to see him awake.
“Ryan!” She called excitedly and hugged him on the bed.”You are awake, I was worried”. she sniffed and Ryan patted her back.
“Is ok, am fine”. he said and they pulled away from each other. Ryan managed to sit upright on the bed.
” Are you sure you are okay? Should I get the doctor?”. She asked curiously, Ryan smiled and cleaned her tears with his thumb.
“No, am fine, you don’t need to worry”. he reassures her. Mia fell into his arms again sobbing while Ryan continued to caress her back.
Soon the door opened revealing Theo and his parents, they were surprised to see the romantic connection between Mia and Ryan. Theo smiles and feigns a cough. slowly, Mia and Ryan pull away from each other.
” Ryan”. Mrs.williams called and rushed to him. “Are you okay dear? What happened?”. she asked curiously.
” Who did this to you, bro?”. Theo asked.
“I don’t know them”. he replied.
” Are you sure you are fine?”. Mr.williams asked curiously.
“Yes Dad, is just a minor hit”. he said.
” Why will they attack you? Did you do anything to them?”. She asked sadly. Then Theo’s cell phone rang.
“Jayden is calling”. He said.
” Did you tell him what happened to Ryan?”. Mr. Williams asked.
“Yes, we were discussing through video call when the doctor called to inform me that Ryan had been rushed to the hospital”. He explained and then picked up the phone. ” Hello bro”. There was a pause “Yes, he is awake”. he said and gave the phone to Ryan.
” Hey bro”.He said and there was a pause. “I have no idea who they are, they are just random boys looking for trouble”. he said and there was a pause.” Sure no problem”. he hung up and returned the phone to Theo.
“What did he say?”. Mrs.Williams asked.
” He said he had sent his men to find the guys”. he said.
“That’s good, those fools need to be dealt with”. Mr.Williams said.
” Yeah, we should be happy it didn’t get more complicated like this”. Mrs.Williams said and her gaze finally landed on Mia who standing by the edge of the bed.”Um, who is she, son?”. She asked firmly and Mia became nervous as all eyes were on her.
“Um, this is Mia, she is my friend and also a friend to Maya”. Ryan said.
” Oh, how are you dear?”.She asked politely.
“Am fine ma”. She said nervously.
” Thank you for looking out for my son”. Mr.williams said and Mia smiled nervously, then her cell phone rang, and she noticed it was her mother calling
“Um, excuse me, everyone”. she said and rushed out.
Ryan stares after her lovingly and his parents notice and they smile knowingly at him.
“So, son, is she the one?”. Mrs.williams asked smiling.
” The one what?”. He asked knowing fully well what she meant.
“Don’t give me that look, you know what I am talking about”. she said.
” Mom, she–“. He got interrupted.
“She is Mom,”. Theo interrupted.” Ryan is falling for that girl, but he is hiding it”.
“Really, son? Is that true?”. Mr.williams asked and Ryan looked away shyly.
“If that is true, then, you have our blessing, she is so beautiful and lovely”. Mrs.williams said.
~~~At the corridor~~~
Mia was still on the phone with her mom.
” Yes Mom, everything is fine, I will be home soon”. she said on the phone, after a while of chatting, she hung up and sighed. She hesitated for a while and then went inside, they turned in her direction.” I will be going now”. she said
“Ok, thank you for helping my son”. Mrs.williams said.
” Is a pleasure ma”. she replied.
“Thank you, Mia, I will text you once I am discharged”. Ryan said.
” Sure, take care of yourself”.
“I will”. he smiled.
” I will drop you off, is late already”. Theo offered and they left.

CLUBHOUSE
Mia was feeling restless after not hearing from Ryan for two days, his cell phone was not connecting and he didn’t reply to any of her messages.
“I hope all is well with him,” she said and let out a sigh.
Some hours later, the club became filled up, it was Wednesday night and a lot of activities had been done with people to merry and be entertained. Soon after, Ryan and Theo enter along with Lisa.
“Wow! This is amazing”. Lisa said as they left for the VIP room and the waiter attended to them. ” I feel like dancing”.
“Sure, you can go ahead, but stay out of trouble”. Theo warned.
” Sure” She stood up to leave and turned to Ryan.”Come, Ryan, come dance with me”.
“Nah, you go ahead, I will pass”. he decline.
” boring soul”. she said and walked away, they chuckled after her.
Meanwhile, Mia came to the garden to take a little nap before going back inside.
“Gosh, what a night”. She stretches herself.
” What are you doing?”.Ryan interrupted her from behind, she turned in his direction and was surprised.
“Ryan!”. she called excitedly and rushed to hug him, Ryan held her tight.
” How have you been Mia?”. he asked and they pulled away from each other arms slowly and he caressed her face.
“What happened? I tried reaching out to you, but your phone wasn’t connecting, I even sent you a text “.
” Am sorry, I was caught up with work”. he explains.
“But are you ok? Does your head still hurt?”.
” No, am fine now”. They smile at each other.” but what are you doing out here? Don’t you know is cold out here”.
“Not really, I just needed to stretch out a little before heading back inside, is a busy night though”. she said.
” I know”. They smiled at each other as he caressed her face.”Am sorry our hang-out was ruined by those thugs”.
“Is ok, everything happens for a reason”. She said.
” Sure”. They chuckle
Just then their eyes got interlocked, and Ryan slowly leaned his face closer, Mia gulped nervously as her legs were clued to the ground, and his lips clashed with hers softly, Mia blinked her eyes severally. Then he pulled away from her slowly and cupped her face, staring lovingly into her eyes.
“Ryan, we can’t”. She sputtered nervously.
” Why not?”.
“We are different and–“.
” I don’t care”. he interrupts her. “I want to be more than a friend to you” ” He stroked her hair and locked lips with her passionately as his hand went through her waist pulling her into his arms, Mia hesitated to respond to his kisses, and then she encircled her arms around him and responded to his kisses. Ryan cupped her face and deepened the kiss.
Meanwhile, Theo came out of the club to receive a phone call, but he was surprised as his eyes caught sight of two familiar figures kissing affectionately in the garden.
“Ryan?”. he smiles and shakes his head” You finally admitted your feelings”. he said and goes back inside.
Ryan and Mia were still entangled with each other, slowly they pulled away from each other to catch their breath.
“Mia, will you go on a proper date with me this weekend?”. he asked and Mia smiled shyly. ” I would love to go on a date with you, so, will you honor my invitation?”. he asked smiling lovingly at her.
“Can I think about it?”. She asked hiding her blushes.
” No, give me the answer now”.
“Ok, I would love to”. she said and Ryan pulled her into a warm hug.
” Thank you Mia”. he said smiling.
Back at the clubhouse, Lisa and Theo were chatting and drinking.
“Where is Ryan?”. Lisa asked.
” At the garden”.Theo replied.
“Doing what exactly?”.
” Busy, he will be here soon”. he said.
Just then Ryan came over looking all glamour.
“Hey, people”. he said and sipped from his drink.
” What were you busy doing in the garden? Were you courting someone?”. Lisa asked and Ryan scoffed.
“You took longer than I expected, did you have fun?”. Theo questioned.
” Am sorry I kept you guys waiting, I was caught up with something important”. he said and his eyes met with Mia in the crowd attending to someone, he smiled and Theo noticed as he traced his eyes.
