17 The meeting-part 6

John had gotten to the sitting room the moment Mary left to Mike's room.

He glanced at the back of the woman sitting alone in his sitting room,he patiently observed her, observing the sitting room,she was lost in her own dream world,he took the opportunity to study her.

sitting before him is an olive color skinned girl,her exposed arm and neck showed signs of flawlessness in them,he took his time admiring her features and the way she carried herself,her pearl earrings and necklace told him she wasn't a over hyped fashionista but a simple girl.

He wanted to see her face,he couldn't help but feed the curiosity in him.

"Miss Hannah"He called her name lovingly,his voice came out the wrong way it asked it to, but the way his heart felt.

He could see Hannah turning to face his direction.

But her reaction confused him.

"Mr John Smith"His name resounded in his ears as she called him,he didn't know this feeling it felt strange to him,he wondered why she was shocked on seeing him,he had begun to doubt if she really was sent by Paul,he realized she was on her feet already,and was sure she might collapse Soon if she didn't take her seat.

"Ms Rhodes,please have your seat"he addressed her formally.

hmming in response she slumped gently back to the seat she had earlier stood from"Paul had told her she would be meeting John Smith and he had confided in her,but she had never thought she would feel this way,tbe moment she saw him,she wasn't scared of him she had never been scared of any one,the only thing that causes her adrenaline rush was her nightmares.

Meeting him already, didn't that mean her dreams would be coming to pass sooner than she had expected.

The nightmares had stopped two days ago,her fears now was based on what she would see when she slept tonight.

"Ms Rhodes are you okay"John who had already come to seat opposite her, his voice snapped her out of her thoughts,he had noticed her muscles tense ,the moment she set her eyes on him he wished he could read what was on her mind,he could only read he facial expressions and all he could read was fear.

"yeah I'm good"forcing herself to smile.

"I was told you came hear to see me,would you do me the honour of telling me what the famous Judge presence is doing in this humble servant home"John smirked internally at his stupid beginning.

"it has been brought to my notice that your son Micheal has been taking public bus home,I'm sure between you and I,a father would never let a seven year old kid board a public bus when a school bus as been arranged by the school itself to bring them home"since she wasn't feeling okay she decided to let her mind out all at once,she paused to see if he was listening to her.

However, John remained silent,he knew the fear in her system has been replaced by anger and it would be best for him if he kept quiet,the truth was he was already falling in love with her cuteness in angers disguise.

"Mr Smith are you listening to me"Hannah questioned, eyeing him ,she hadn't bother to introduce herself since both knew each other one way or the other.

"yes I'm all hears"he was trying his best not to offend her,but something in him wanted him to tease her badly,he has never felt this kind of surge pass through him before.

"Good"Hannah said, before continuing her earlier discussion.
