Soma looked away after listening to the first condition that Nicholas said. It wasn’t hard but what of the rest two? What will the be? Will it be something that she can do? She thought as the nurse removed the drip from her hand since it’s content has finished.
“Take enough rest dear to maintain a healthy life” the nurse said as she left them. After she left, Soma stood up from the bed trying to leave but his voice stopped.
“Those innocent legs of yours might be paralyzed in just a second” he said casually as she felt her heart limped in fear as her legs slowly turned around to see him puffing out smoke from his mouth as if he didn’t say anything.
“I’m… sorry.. thanks for bringing me…here. I will give you my reply next time” she stammered as she talked. Instead of replying her,he stood up from the couch still holding the pipe of cigarette on his hand and left the ward leaving her alone in the ward.
“What was that”? She asked herself slowly touching her legs to see if they were intact. When she felt that nothing happened,she was about running out when the nurse from earlier handed a nylon which contained some medicine.
The atmosphere was already getting dark when she arrived outside. She sighed sadly because she missed her partime job already. The remaining strength she had gained,she began trekking to the bus station where she sat waiting for the next bus to arrive. Shortly,the next bus arrived and she entered resting her head on the window thinking about her life and that of her mother.
The bus stopped after reaching her destination. she began walking down to her street as she felt someone trailing her as usual. She ignored the strange person who has always been following her more than a year now and she doesn’t give a d@mn.
As she entered inside, her mom welcomed her with a hug hiding a wound on her neck with a scarf tied around it.
“Your back sweetie” she said sweetly but Soma knew that she was hiding something.
“Did he hit you”? She asked calmly.
“No….o”! She denied but Soma was fast to unite the scarf and saw some fresh wounds on her neck.
“Mom”! She gasped shockingly as he mother made a sign for her to keep quiet which she shook her h ad negatively.
“I’m fine Nmesoma . Everything will be alright” Veronica said as Soma hugged her again.
“Go wash up and come down for dinner. He won’t be coming back today” Veronica announced while Soma breathe out in relieve. She passed her mother a smile before going upstairs. She removed her clothes and entered the bathroom,as the cold water hit her skin she relaxed but the first condition of Nicholas popped on her brain.
“YOU WILL BE MY MAID UNTIL I GIVE YOU THE ORDER TO RESGIN”
“He is scary”!!

Emmanuel was in his room operating on his laptop with many uncountable pieces of paper that are important files lying on his bed. On the outside when watching him,he looked so serious while operating the laptop but inside of him he is worried about his brother Mason.
Mason has always being a stubborn boy since birth but he didn’t expect his father to disowned him and not only that,he even sent his guards his to threw his things out from him. He took his phone and dailed his number but it was switched off.
“Gosh Mason please”! He groaned as he dialled it for the second time it rang but gat no response.
“I pray nothing happens to him” he muttered as he blinked his eyes to prevent the tears that wanted to fall.
“Young Master dinner is ready”! A maid announced but if look could ki|| she would have been dead by now because Emmanuel wasn’t smiling at all.
“I’m not eating” he shouted back from the room.
“Yes Young master. Should I bring you dinner…”
“I don’t want to eat dinner”!! He yelled interrupting her as she squirreled away.
“What did he say”? Sir Joseph asked the maid that was sent to call him.
“He declined that he doesn’t want to eat” the maid answered.
“Go and call my wife” he ordered which the maid bow and walked on the stairs. Sir Joseph stood up and slowly headed towards Emma’s room. He knocked on the door.
“I said I don’t want to eat”!! He screamed on top of his voice.
“Is me” he heard the voice of his father and rolled his eyes.
“Come in” he said as the door was pushed opened,Sir Joseph came in with a smile on his face seeing Emma surrounded with many files on his bed.
“Son! Your didn’t come down for dinner why”? He asked as a loving father.
“Stop asking me as if you care about me dad. As you can see I’m surrounded with work and I won’t like to be distracted by anyone not even you” he wanted to yell at him but but he held himself. Sir Joseph sat on the bed picking a file randomly.
“But you should eaten your dinner at least” he added and Emmanuel lost himself a bit.
“As if you care huh! I should have eaten dinner as if you are happy to see me eat. Dad please I would appreciate if you step out from my room this minute. Any time wasted you are losing a billion dollars and not me”! He yelled already pissed off.
“Hey young man don’t shout ate okay? I was only trying to look after my son who was just discharged from the hospital and that’s all” Sir Joseph raised his hands in the air in surrender.
“Which son? Me”? Emmanuel asked dramatically annoyed that his father called him son.
“Yes of course” Sir Joseph answered.
“The last time I checked I don’t have a father. I have a selfish and self-centered inhuman man as a boss. And I will like you boss to step out from room this minute because any money that lost this minute will be on you. I h@ťě chit chatting when I am busy with something very beneficial” the manner in which he sounded really made his father happy because that was the spirit he have ever wished for his son to have. Seeing him reacting like this made him to smile like a proud father.
“Okay I will leave you to do your work. Remember to eat dinner for your health. Good night I love you” he stressed the word love.
“I h@ťě you” Emmanuel spat and shut the door loudly after Sir Joseph. He backed the door sliding down to the floor as his butt reached the floor. He held his head allowing the flow of tears from his eyes.
“When will I get this freedom”? He asked no one in particular.
“NO MATTER WHAT, ALWAYS STAY STRONG” He remember the words of that girl who was the reason behind his smile. He slowly stood up and walked to a corner where a piano was placed. He sat down as he begin running his finger on the keys; it’s been long he played a song. Switching the the piano on,he began playing a popular Westlife song ‘I WANNA GROW OLD WITH YOU’
Another day
Without your smile
Another day just passes by
But now I know
How much it means
For you to stay
Right here with me
The time we spent apart will make our love grow stronger
But it hurt so bad I can’t take it any longer
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing in everything you do
I wanna grow old with you
A thousand miles between us now
It causes me to wonder how
Our love tonight remains so strong
It makes our risk right all along
The time we spent apart will make our love grow stronger
But it hurt so bad I can’t take it any longer
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing in everything you do
I wanna grow old with you
Things can come and go I know but
Baby I believe
Something’s burning strong between us
Makes it clear to me
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing in everything you do
I wanna grow old with you
