CHAPTER 45
MAGEDELENE'S POV
She could feel Sam hovering over as she paints.
"You know you should stay away from Philip." Sam tells her
Magedelene drops the brush, and turns to face him.
"Why should I stay away from him, Are you jealous."
She tells him to his face, She's getting tired for all his games.
"Me ?, Jealous?" Sam scoffs at her.
"Then what is this all about?" Magedelene questioning him.
Sam grabs a chair as he sits close to her
"I can't say, but he's not the one for you."
Magedelene scoffs at him this time, as she returns back to paint the joint sketch they were working together on.
Sam looks at the paint "I think you should use a lesser bright color for it."
Magedelene looks at him with a brow raised up
"Remember, the drawing is suppose to speak of experience." Sam pointing at the sketch on the drawing board.
Their hands brushing off each other, as he point to where she should use the paint.
Magedelene ignores the brush, as She focus on the painting .
"Is there something you know, that I don't know of? Magedelene asks Sam as she focuses on the paint.
" Are we talking about the Art right now?" Sam asks her.
Magedelene looks at him in a questioning way, and goes back to her Painting.
"Oh, we are back to Philip." Sam spills out,
Magedelene didn't respond to that,
" I just don't see what he has in common with you." Sam tells her as he frowns.
Magedelene could tell that he was lying again.
She decides to play along with him.
"We don't have to prove anything to you." Magedelene tells him .
"I don't know, why you being so uptight, y'all ain't even official yet." Sam spills out again.
This time, Magedelene breathes out in frustration
" Now, Can you take a look at the painting?"
Sam takes a close look at the painting, "okay, I think we can go with this, but I will be doing the last finishing on my own."
Magedelene nods her head, as she goes over the sink to wash the paints off her hands.
"Can you do me a favour, and stay off my privacy?" She speaks out, So he could hear her loud enough.
Sam turns his head from the Art, He begins to walks towards her.
" I don't know why you don't see it,
You don't see the possibility of us." San begins to tell her.
Magedelene keeps mute, as she hears Sam talk
" We have so much in common,
Do you have an idea of how what we could do together? "
"I still can't fathom what you're trying to say here." Magedelene says as he slightly brush him away to walk to where she is sitting.
Sam grabs her hands aggressively
" I am not done talking to you."
Their eyes staring into each other.
Magedelene looks down at his fingers tighten around her hands.
"You're hurting me right now."
Sam gives a look one more time, as he releases her hands
"I am sorry, it's just I like you so much."
Immediately He releases her hands, she walks back to her paint.
Sam follows behind her,
" I am really sorry, I didn't mean it that way" He tells her repeatedly.
She hurriedly puts in her painting brush, the pencils, her iPad, sketches into her bag, and was about to leave
" We aren't done Painting, I said am sorry." Sam goes Infront of the door as he pleads gently.
" You know this would mean a lot to the company and to you."
Sam says as he tries to make her change her mind about leaving.
Magedelene vows to herself gently, that this would be the last time, they would be working together.
She had contributed so much to the project they are working together on.
"Thank you so much." Sam says as he watches her go back.
" I am just trying to look out for you here,
If you get to know who Philip is, You wouldn't want to bear the hurt, you're gonna feel." Sam continues, when they are both seated.
Magedelene looks at him as the words comes out from his mouth.
" What are you trying to tell me, Sam." Magedelene asks him.
"See, I got to discover some things, and I don't know if what I found out are true, I just don't want to spill it out, until I get the truth ." Sam comes closer to her.
" I just don't want to see you hurt all over again, You have been through so much already." Sam tries to holds her hands.
She didn't allow him, she quickly creates distance between them.
" If I can remember vividly, I haven't told you anything about me."
Sam Smiles at her "That's to prove how much I really want to be there for you "
"That's not what am asking you, What do you know about me?" Magedelene goes closer to him.
"I know you're adopted,
I know your birth Mom dead,
I know it hasn't been easy for you, I know this is third city you're moving into. And
I know for sure, the name of your Dad."
Magedelene watches Sam mentioning things about her off the top off his head .
She looks at him in shock, Sam is a psycho, now she's really confirms it.
This guy is crazy, he's lost it.
She has to find a way to get out of here, without getting hurt
"How did you get to know all this?" She stammers.
Sam tries getting close to her again
" All I just want to do is, To protect you, I don't want to find you hurt again."
Magedelene begins to remember, What he said about knowing her Father
"What my Dad's name ?" She asks him.
Sam heaves deeply as he relaxes his back on the chair
" And that is what I can't say, because you are gonna be so devasted, that's why I don't want you with that boy."
Magedelene couldn't begin to wrap her head on whatever Sam was saying
" Right now, You're saying everything and nothing at the same time."
Sam looks down defeated,
She quickly stands up grabs her bag, and begins to walk towards the exit
" I am done with my work here, and the only person I need protection of is from You."
She tells him and walks out.
