“Ok, ma, I will be there”.
” You can go on now, I will attend to the customer”.
“Ok”. she left and Ms.Queen left to attend to the customer. Maya arrived at the VIP room and knock on the door, she enters immediately the voice ushered her in. She was shocked to see who it was.
” Hi, Angel”. Lucas said smiling faintly at her.
“What are you doing here?”. She asked.
” How do you mean? I came here to shop”. he replied and Maya roll out her eyes
“Fine, what can I get you?”.
” Do you act coldly to all your customers?”. he teases.
“Don’t get me wrong here, just tell me what you want”.
” Sure”. he stood up and move a little closer to her.” I need something unique, something gorgeous, and attractive”. he continues and Maya sighs tiredly.
“Will you just say what you want, is it a dress, jewelry, or a bag”.
” All of them”. he said smiling.
“Ok”. she smile forcedly at him and left. he smiles after her. Some minutes later, Maya came over with two gorgeous dresses, different pairs of jewelry, and bags, she place them on the table but was surprised not to find him in the room.” Where did he run off to? Is he playing a prank on me” She sighs and Lucas interrupted her from behind her.
“Looking for me?”. he whispered to her ears, Maya turn in his direction and she missed her step trying not to bump into him, but she was lucky enough that Lucas caught her by her waist and pull her to his arms, both were staring into each other eyes, Suddenly, someone barged into the room, they turn to the direction to see Jayden angry face, within a second he rushed to Lucas and punched him hard on his face, Maya went surprised.
” You animal! How dare you touch her”. Jayden yelled and continue to rain punches on him, Maya rushed to separate him from hitting him again.
“Let him go! Please let him go!” She said trying to make him stop, but Jayden continue to hit him. “JAYDEN!!!”. she screamed out his name and he suddenly stop hitting Lucas, he froze at the scream of his name, since he had come in contact with her, she has never called out his name before. ” Stop!”. she sobs. Jayden stood up still boiling in anger, Lucas was bleeding from the face and was groaning in pain. Jayden took Maya’s hand quickly and drag her out, everyone turn in their direction to see the anger on his face and the way he was dragging Maya along with him. They arrived at the car and enter.
“Go!”. he order the driver and they drove off. Both were seated separately at the edge of the car. ” What were you doing with him?”. he asked staring angrily at the road.
“Nothing”. She said sniffing.
” Nothing? You mean to tell me nothing?”.he quarrel.
“Yes, it was nothing, you overreacted “.
” Seriously? I overreacted? How dare you tell me nothing when I saw how relaxed you were in his arms, and you tell me nothing!”. he yelled.
“Of course, not, you misunderstood what happened”.
” Oh, really? Why were you in his arms like that? Do you suddenly fall for him?”. he asked rudely.
“Don’t quote me wrong, I didn’t fall for him, what you saw wasn’t intentional and you have no right to punch him like that, you almost killed him”.
” Really? Do you suddenly feel sympathy for him?”. he asked acting jealous.
“I am not like you, I have human sympathy “.
” You should stay away from him, I don’t want you around him anymore”. he warned.
“You should learn how to control your anger sometimes, it’s not good for a man like you and I won’t be sleeping in your room tonight “. she said and Jayden stare at her quickly.
” Excuse me!”.
“You heard me, is going to be a punishment for hitting your fellow man to a pulp,”.she said and Jayden was short of words.
