Episode 39
By Chidimma Mirabel
“Good morning to you two. I’m Angela Peterson, nice meeting you” She said with a smile on her painted lips
William and Mindy stared at her with a bewildered expression. Jackson looked at his friend with a confused expression.
“Angela?” William said confused.
Angela nodded and placed her head on Jackson shoulder. She stretched her hand to Mindy for a handshake.
Mindy stared at her hand and slowly took it with trembling hands.
“My name is Madeline Perry but you can call me Mindy” She said still staring at Angela.
“Nice meeting you, why are you looking at me like that? It looks like you’ve seen a ghost” Angela said.
“You just look so much like my dear sister Kaila. She died last month, I’m still grieving for her most” Mindy said.
“Sorry Mrs Perry, I’m sure she’s happy wherever she is” Angela said with a smile on her face.
Jackson eyes grew wide as he understood everything. The girl standing in front of him is Mindy which means William is….
*Oh no* He thought.
William was still mute as he stared at Angela. Angela looked at him which made his heart skip a beat.
“Come on then let’s go have a little time together” Angela said and held Jackson arm.
They walked towards a car waiting for them and entered it then drove off. William and Mindy followed them in another car.
“Angel, is he the William you were talking about?” Jackson asked.
“Yeah he is. And that’s my sister, it took alot of self control in order not to slap her” Angela said .
“So you were engaged to my best friend” Jackson said sadly
Angela looked at him. She pulled his face closer and kssed him briefly.
“Hey relax. I was engaged to him because I wanted to help my family out of poverty. There was no feelings attached, you’re the one I love and even in my next life I’ll still choose you over and over again” Angela said with a smile.
Jackson smiled, feeling better…
The car stopped in front of a restaurant and they got down. William and Mindy got down too from their car.
*Look it’s the price of Denmark
*He’s with his wife, I watch their wedding online. It was so beautiful and romantic…
*She’s pretty though.
Angela held Jackson arm and they walked in the restaurant. The booked a table for four.
They all settled down beside their partner.
*I need to know if she’s really Angela* Mindy thought
“So tell me more about you” Mindy said as food was served to them
Angela took the fork and knife and looked at Mindy then smiled.
“Well all I can tell you is that I was simple girl who worked in a restaurant. On a fateful day I met my darling husband. We exchange formalities. At first we had an arranged marriage but in the end, love prevailed…He’s the reason why I’m here right now and for that I’ll love him till my last breath” She said and held Jackson hand.
William felt a huge pang of jealousy…
Mindy smiled too and faced her food. They ate in silence…
After their lunch, they went their separate ways. Jackson took Angela to his house, yeah he has his own house in the US.
They both entered and the maids bowed in greetings.
“Feels so good to be home” Angela said and fell on the bed.
Jackson smiled and laid down beside her, staring at her.
Angela sat up and looked at Jackson.
“Jack,,,I need to see someone right now. Can I?” Angela asked
“Sure you can. But please be careful” He said and tugged her hair behind her ear.
“Thanks sweetheart. Love you” She said and pecked his lips but he pulled her back and deepened the kss.
She found herself melting in his arms but she quickly pulled away.
“Nope, I won’t fall in your trap now” She said and winked.
“Too bad” He replied…
Angela opened the closet and found women dresses in it. She looked back at Jackson.
“What? I asked the maids to buy you some dresses before we arrive.” He said.
“You’re so sweet” She said and blew ksses at him.
She removed an over sized hoodie with a jean and some sneakers.
She undressed and began wearing the outfit
“Stop se..ducing me” Jackson said as he stares at her dressing…
“Everything I do se..duces you” She replied and wore her sneakers.
“Done” She said when she finished dressing.
“I’ll leave now.” She said and pecked his lips.
“I’ll miss you” Jackson said.
Angela smiled and walked out of the room and out of the house. She decided to go there on foot.
If anyone sees her right now, they’ll think she’s just a commoner. She wore a hoodie because she doesn’t want alot of attention on her.
Her dead was viral so they’ll definitely know if they see her face.
She walked up to a house. It was moderate in size and also beautiful…
“If I’m not mistaken this is the house of Gianna parents. She told me when we were at the brothel* Angela thought.
She rang the bell and after some minutes a woman opened the door. She was old but still beautiful, the striking portrait of Gianna.
“Good morning ma’am, is this were Gianna lives?” Angela asked..
The woman looked at her for sometime and then nodded.
“Yeah she lives here, anything wrong?” The woman asked.
“No, I just want to speak to her” Angela replied with a smile.
“She’s not yet back. She’s still at work” The woman said.
“Okay, will it be wrong if I wait for her” Angela asked.
“Sure you can wait, come in” The woman said and opened the door for her.
She walked in and stared at the house with a smile.
“Have a seat please” The woman said.
“Thanks” She replied and sat down.
“How do you know my daughter if I may ask”
“Well let’s just say we helped each other out when we were in a hard situation” Angela replied
They began discussing about random things.
