PREV......

Well, the show at Sam's company was a hit if you ask me. Even if the best models were not there, it was still the best, many of his best designs were showcased and finally the moment everyone was waiting for finally came. The time for the auction came and all the gentlemen and ladies who believed that they had what it took to own Sams designs went forward for it.

It was actually Givens first time witnessing such an event and he was shocked by how important it seemed to everyone who were in the hall. Well, Sams friend was also there to participate in the action. If you ask me, I don't think he needed to be part of it at all, simply because he had a good relationship with Sam and that was an advantage. 

He could easily get him to sell him a design at a very reasonable price other than fighting over a shirt that would cost hundred thousand of rands or even close to millions. Well, the auction began, here is how it was done. A model would walk to the stage wearing the same outfits which were showcased earlier on, the model would then appear holding a card that has a starting price of the product, and the rich dudes would battle over it.

Sams father was actually the one that still handled the entire auction process because he still didn't trust his son. Even though Sam was clearly the best in the job, to his father he was still regarded to as a child, so the old man carried out the entire auction process from the very first t-shirt to the last trouser. And after such a long day of polite arguments between adults, the entire function was over.

Well, you could obviously tell from the guests faces that they really enjoyed themselves. And as for Sam, he couldn't wait to get home and rest. The best part was that after each and every show, he always closed his company so that his employees would rest, meaning that he would also take the rest. But there was someone who was not yet done talking about the events of the day and that's his father.

Well, Sam did mention something about him and Given which was what his father was eventually waiting to hear so they were supposed to have a very serious talk about this, and poor Sam knew nothing about this. So, before he could leave the building along with Given who wouldn't stop saying he was hungry, his father told him that they had to have a family meeting the following day featuring Given.

His father didn't add more to the statement, he was like " Son, tomorrow there's a family meeting, its urgent, bring Given with you" and that was it. He didn't even explain the concept of the meeting, hence it was a surprise. And as for Sam, he drove back to his house, along with given who was now nagging him saying he was hungry but I wouldn't blame him because Sam promised to buy him food but he failed to.

So, Sam was forced to stop at a nearest restaurant which was still open, luckily he found one and he ordered takeaways so that Given would get to eat in the car while he drove back. So off to his house they went, it didn't take them that long to arrive but by that time, Given was already done eating. at this point the only thing he really needed was a good sleep,and nothing more.

By the moment they got out of the car, he didn't even wait for Sam, he ran out and off to his room he went and there he threw himself on the bed and he drifted to lalaland. Don't even ask about the shoes, not to forget the clothes he was wearing.

The following day finally came and if you didn't know the drama between Harry and his husband Mark then you were in for a long run. So, Harry was the first to wake up as always, and this time he decided to make his little wifey breakfast since he was the only one to wait for Mark to make breakfast. So he began by cracking some eggs and attempted to turn on the stove.

Turning on the stove was actually a success, he then placed a pan consisting of oil on the stove and foolishly went outside. Only God knows why he decided to go outside because by the moment he came back in, Mark was already there trying to put out the fire that his pan started. Harry didn't even know where to start, he rushed to a fire extinguisher and sprayed it all over the stove.

At that moment

Harry- Oh my God, this is a mess(he points at the stove)

Mark- Which you started husband, who goes outside for half an hour and leaves a pan of oil on the stove...

Harry- Babe, there's no need to take this to heart, I just forgot( he says calmly)

Mark- You forgot, What I was sound asleep and I didn't hear the smoke detector, the entire house would've caught fire,( in an angry tone)

Harry- But you are okay, and I'm grateful for that, come on honey( he goes to embrace him but Mark pushes him)

Mark- Please just take things serious for once husband, considering that you no longer have time for me nowadays, 

Harry- What are you talking about Mark, simply because I refused to let you have just one thing, you are this moody. I need you to mature just a bit please or else you will adopt your child and be a single father!!! (he then walked out to his car , started it and left)

Well, Mark was left there dumbfounded, it was actually the first time Harry raised his voice towards him, he was confused to weather he was supposed to be scared or angry. Well, he picked the first option hence he went outside to check if Harry was still there but he found the car gone meaning that Harry had left, hence Mark began to get emotional. 

He rushed inside and there he went to find his phone in order to call Harry but he didn't pick up, hence he called his father( Mark's father ) in order to let him know what happened. Before you call him a snitch, he was actually asking his father to talk to Harry and let him know that he wanted to apologize for talking harsh on him that's its.
