?Chapter 12?
Cristine’s Pov:
We looked deeply into each others eyes passionately.
I gulped nervously as I looked away.
“Let’s… Let’s go!” I snapped as he blinked his eyes.
He forced a smile at me and nodded.
“Yeah… Let’s go” He said as he ignited the car engine and drove off
It was a very quiet drive….
We didn’t stop stealing glances at each other.
Good heavens!
That guy is freaking so handsome….
I hope I don’t faint in nervousness!
I looked out of the window….
As smiles escaped my lips.
Few minutes later….. ?
He drove me into my apartment and I got down from the car.
“Thank you so much Mr Andrew” I smiled broadly at him
“It’s Andy…. You’re welcome though” He said as I chuckled.
I walked into the duplex still waving at him.
He drove off again and I kept on smiling as I walked into my house.
I breathed heavily as I walked upstairs.
Finally, the maids are going to come home next week.
I really can’t wait….
The duplex have turned to a graveyard since one could hear the sound of a pin.

I spooned the pasta into my mouth as I gulped down a glass of juice.
“Come on girlfriend… Tell me are you already going out with him?” Dani asked anxiously
“Nope…. He’s just a friend!” I said simply
“You know I don’t think he is to you! I mean it’s obvious you like him” Dani said as she scooped some pasta into her plate.
“Of course not! I…. I…. I don’t…. like…. uhm” I stuttered
Daniella nudged me as I rolled my eyes.
“Oh really? When did you suddenly become a stammer?” Dani snorted.
I gulped….
“I wasn’t stammering” I lied
“Well my advise to you my dear friend is to make haste when the sun shines” She sneered
I arched my eyebrows in confusion.
“What do you mean?” I snapped
“Go for what you like before it’s too late” She said as I sighed.
“Haven’t you heard of table manners huh?” I changed the topic.
Daniella laughed aloud.
“You’re silly” She laughed
“One of the table manners includes not talking while eating” I said as we shared a laugh and continued eating.
Thoughts of what she said filled my mind.
But do I really like him?
I shrugged it off.
Andrew’s Pov:
I laid on my bed with the duvet I used in covering myself.
I shivered uncontrollably on the bed.
My eyes were dull and my lips sore……
I coughed slightly before reaching for my cell phone.
I glanced at the wall clock.
It was 7am already…..
Actually I have a very high fever and can barely breathe.
I dialed some numbers but they were not going through.
That was when I dialed Cristine’s number.
My hands were shaking and I almost threw my phone away.
I really need someone to help take me to the hospital or better still buy me drugs.
Cristine’s Pov:
I walked into my office …..
You know the usual?
I always come to work as early as 7am…that have been my daily routine.
I dropped my handbag on the table and sat down.
My cell phone rang aloud….
Who could that be? ?
Oh! It was Mr Andrew…. I mean Andy.
I picked it up!
?Hello! Good morning Andy….. I said cheerfully
?Good…. Good morning… Andy’s weak voice echoed out of my phone’s speaker.
?Andy are you OK?”… I asked anxiously
?Please just come.. Come…. Please help… Help me… He said weakly
?Andy? Andy??”.. I called anxiously as the cell phone hung up.
Fear gripped me!
What could be wrong?
Oh Andy! I hope nothing bad happens to him…
I quickly got up in fear and picked up my handbag.
I rushed out of the office… That was when I met my secretary.
“Ma’am? Ma’am? What happened? Are you OK?” She asked anxiously.
Before I could say a word, tears already rolled down my cheeks.
“I’ll be back shortly” Was all I managed to say as I rushed out of the premises…..
??
TBC….
Why is she crying na? ??
I thought she doesn’t love him ?
Well let’s keep balling ?
