{ I LOVE YOU BABY }
Spencer got to them and pulled Luxury away from Fernando before he knew it, and Luxury’s eyes widened.
“Spencer!”
Spencer’s eyes widened too. He definitely wasn’t in his right senses when he did that.
“Huh?…. I just thought…it was too tight…you were suffocating” he lied, and Luxury sighed.
“I own the body ok?, And I’m fine” she said.
“Come, we need to talk” Spencer replied and took her hand.
“Spencer….
Before she could form a sentence, he pulled her out of the office.
Fernando wiped his tears and sighed, opening the sleeves on his wrist.
A red wristband is there, and when he saw it, he smiled, remembering what happened when he was still young.
“Don’t lose it, and I promise to remember you first if we meet in the future” the girl said after fixing the band on his wrist.
“I won’t, I promise” young Fernando replied, and they sealed the promise by linking their pinky fingers.
Fernando smiled again, resting back on his chair as he kept picturing her face in his head.
“It’s strange that i forget my worries anytime I think about you” he muttered, closing his eyes.

Spencer got to the stairs with Luxury and stopped, then he faced her.
“I’m sorry” he said.
“About what?” She asked with a blink.
“Pulling you out that way” he replied, and she smiled.
“It’s fine, do you have something to tell me?” She asked.
“Will you…be my date to the dinner party tommorow?” He asked slowly, and Luxury’s heart skipped beats immediately.
She surely wasn’t expecting that.
“Luxury?’ he called to bring her back.
“Huh?’ she replied, looking him in the eye.
“Do I need to wait?” He asked.
“No!, I mean…yes, I’ll be your date” she replied, and he smiled.
“I’ll pick you up at 7 tommorow” he said.
“Sure, see ya tomorrow!” She replied, and he smiled before hugging her.
“Bye!”
“Bye!” She replied, and he left.
“Thought we agreed not to fall in love again?, What the hell is my heart doing?, Why is it beating so fast?” She held her chest, resting her head on the wall.
“Not after my ex got married to my friend and even made me the event planner, Luxury!” She hit her head and comported herself, then she smiled funnily before going back in.
Immediately she took her seat, Tyler came out of Fernando’s office with a first aid kit.
“President won’t let me treat his hand” he said.
“What!, It was bleeding” Mrs Williams said.
“Give it to me” Luxury said, taking the kit from him.
She entered Fernando’s office and placed it on the table.
Fernando pretended not to see her all through, and when she poured methyl on the cotton to wipe the wound, he snatched his hand away from her.
“Why are you like this?, Will you only allow treatment when it rots?” She said, and he glared.
“I clearly told you to leave me alone earlier” he said.
“Stop behaving like a douchebag for real!” She shouted.
“I’m not Spencer!, I see no reason why you should treat my wound” he replied loudly.
“Oh… Really?, Fine!” Luxury said and threw down the cotton, then she started walking out.
Fernando grabbed her arm, and she stopped.
“What?” She frowned.
“I’m sorry…you can…treat it” he said, and she sighed before taking the cotton from the table.
She took his hand and and started wiping it. His eyes were on her face throughout, and no matter how much he tried, he couldn’t look away.
He was staring intently at her till she finished wiping and wrapped bandage on it, then she took the box and started leaving.
“Luxury” he suddenly called, and she looked back.
He badly wants to ask her to be his date to the party, but he lost his guts immediately she turned back.
“It’s nothing” he said, and she left.
“Geez, I’m crazy” he muttered, dipping his fingers into his hair roughly.

“Come to granny Kate’s shop!, We sell the best fish around!, You won’t regret it!” Princess shouted at the top of her voice again, waving the flyers in the air.
She hasn’t distributed up to ten today, seems today is a bad day.
“I’m so dead when I get home, granny will ki|| me” she muttered sadly, trying to give it to another passerby, but she was pushed, and she staggered.
Someone caught her, and her eyes widened when she saw Miguel.
“Hey!” She smiled prettily as he released her.
“Call me Miguel” he replied, smiling out his dimples.
“Oh… Miguel” she smiled, and he looked at the flyers with her.
“You’ve barely distributed anything” he said, and she pouted.
“I know, my granny will be so mad” she said.
“No, she won’t be” he replied, and she blinked as he took the flyers from her.
“Granny Kate’s fish shop is the best!, Come patronize us and you won’t regret!” He shouted.
Within two minutes, young girls covered him.
?️ You’re so cute!
?️ I’ll tell my mum to patronize you!
?️ Will you be in the shop tomorrow?
?️ Please date me!
?️ I love your dimples!
?️ I’ll bring all my neighbors to the shop tommorow!
?️ Please continue smiling!
Within three minutes, he finished distributing it all, then he grabbed Princess’s hand and started taking her away from there.
“Where are we going?” She asked.
“Secret” he smiled, and she kept following him.
A minute after they left, Nathan arrived and couldn’t find her.
He started searching all the spots she stands at in the market, but he still couldn’t find her.
He went to granny Kate’s shop and met lots of customers on the line.
He went through the crowd and searched for her with his eyes, maybe she’s helping granny Kate, but she’s not there too.
He walked back to his car dejectedly.
“Where did she go?” He muttered.
•••
“Do you come here often?” She asked, and he nodded.
“Yeah, with my girlfriends” he replied, and she gasped.
“You’re a playboy” she said, and he smiled.
“So Brianna is just one of them” she said again, nodding slowly.
“If she ever tries to attack you again, fight back” he said.
“I don’t have the strength unfortunately, I fall at a slight push” she replied.
“Then, shall we go eat?” He said, and she smiled.
They left the shop together and went to a nearby restaurant where they ate together.
“I’m so full” she said, holding her stomach as they came out.
“You can come here to eat everyday even without me, it’ll be added to my tab” he said.
“Really?” She said quickly, and he nodded.
“Thank you thank you!” She shouted, hugging him suddenly.
Miguel’s eyes widened, and she quickly broke it.
“I have to go now!”
“I’ll drive you…
Before he could finish, she was already running.
“Usain Bolt” he smiled.
