chapter 6

The morning breeze hit me, making me roll on something soft and damp. I tried moving my hand but a sudden pain makes me quickly put it down to i ts position. I attempted to open my eyes but I was meet with a bright light, I immediately closed my eyes. Something is wrong, I thought to myself. I don' t know why I feel this way but something is not right. I tried to reminisce a bout what happened last night but I cant even think straight because of the headaches that struck me.

I tried to roll over waiting to find my body to be dropped off on the cold ti le. But to my surprise nothing happened, I felt some pain from my ankle, making me to ich in pain. I waited for some time which seems like forever be fore I finally opened my eyes gently. And then the reality struck me, the m emories of last night rushed to my head at a speed of light.

Whuit where am I?" I questioned, asking no one in particular. but my eyes are still closed.

Why is my bed so soft today?

It is even bigger than it used to be, The last thing I seem to remember was when I mounted the closet before everything went blank.

On opening my eyes, I was welcomed by a manly figure who was sleeping o n the elegant couch peacefully.

"So, I slept in his room yesterday night I probed silently.

"What is this?" I muttered to myself before yawning loudly. My brain does nt yet register what is happening, cause write now the only thing that seems to clear to me is that, am in Bobby's bedroom but my eyes are still blurred making it difficult to identify the manly figure thats is sleeping across the bed.

I quickly closed my eyes back because of headaches and open it again for t he third time, tho gradually.

Who is this? I tried to identify the person but vision doesn't seem to be of he (p. .ai quickly used my right hand to brush my face to confirm what am se eing clearly.

"Bobby!!!! 'I gasped, completely sidetracked by what am looking at.

The room is quite told, I quickly grabbed a blanket to cover my exposed to dy before looking at him again. After glaring at him for some time, I fina lly gathered the courage to walk to him on the couch.

So you can be sleeping peacefully...

I looked at his damp face, making me wonder if he woke up of recent to wa sh his face. I tried moving back to the bed. But a hand immediately grabbe d my wrist making me flinch in surprise. I tilted my head in the direction and nearly went to hyperventilation when my eyes came in contact with his

"You are up he grumbled, his husky voice echoing everywhere, with his eye & still close."

"Yes" I answered sharply, I eventually remembered how to breathe again, 1 tried to jerk my hand off his he didn't seem like someone ready to let me go any minute. He held my hand firmly.

' Are you trying to strangle me to death ? he asked, his eyes started to op en slowly. His Emerald eyes piercing into mine. The more I looked at him th e more am afraid to fall for his charm. I quickly cleared my throat and lo ok away before I do something I will regret later.

To the maid quarters of cause, you know I'm not supposed to be here? I ma naged to say, praying silently for him to release his grip.

He got up as he removed the pillow he was resting on, he shoots me a deadl y look. He walked toward the Water dispenser to get some water.

"Do you know you're funny, sweetie

"Dont call me that again!"

"But I want to he winked at me. I start clinging my fist together. If only I can hit him, I won't mind doing it.

The thought of my parents hit me, the fear of what an going to tell them ab out where I spent my night after the ballroom party sent cold shiver down my spine.

Without thinking twice, I started heading towards the door after shooting him a deadly look.

Just make sure you keep my cloth for me' his voice comes all of a sudden I was about to push the door open I come to a halt immediately before turnin g to face him.

"Your what!!!!! I asked as I turn to look at him.

"Are you trying to say you dont know you are wearing my cloth' he questi oned softly.

I squirmed in my position

Your what!!!

I quickly check myself only to found out that am wearing a long sleeves shirt and trouser

My cloth...t I mean am wearing a pink top and a blouse yesterday.

I look at him suspiciously before rushing back to him.

Where are my clothes I mutter looking at him and feeling embarrassed at the same time.

"Your clothes, are you asking me? he questioned

Yes, are you not the one that changer my.....

what!! That's when the actuality hit me.

Did he change my clothes?

It is not possible...

"Did you change my clothes... by any chancece, I mean did use anything, i stammered looking confused.

"What if I did "he answered almost immediately.

He uses his left hand to brush his hair to a side and I must confess he look so cute though his hair was very messy.

Stop it, Melissa...

"You know what I am just looking at you cos you are wounded if not I kno w what to do for spoiling my first night in England. he blabbered out tryi ng to divert the topic as he walks toward his shelf

"Stop making a bool out of me " I scream loudly making him drop the book he was holding before walking to me.

you change what!!!!!! You mean you see everything I mumbled looking baf fled but instead of answering me, he remains mute and at the same time wi nking at me.

"Answer me I scream looking at him with so much hatred.

He scoffs before standing up, he walked toward me before stopping when he got to me.

"I saw everything and for a matter of fact, I'm not even moved while lookin g at your naked body cos you are not my taste' he mutters barely above a whisper i was dumblounded by his comment.

Is he referring to me?

"What!!!! you saw everything 'I murmur looking at him as he keeps moving closer

"Yes sweetie', he answers I found myself staring at the floor searching for w hat to say but nothing comes out...

"Are you angry? 'he asked softly using his right hand to raise my head to face me.

"You..., I was cut off by the sound of the door.

We both look at each other immediately, and about running to the bookshe lf to hide when Melanie's voice comes in making me stop on my track.

Melanie I called

"Adriana good morning she answered while walking to us.

"What are you doing here I questioned am now looking at Bobby who is al so looking at me with no expression in his face.

"Am here to check on you of cos, hope you did sleep well yesterday, and al so did he did something to you and your wound? She questioned making me look at her with a confused expression.

"How did you know I am here I managed to say still looking at her.

"Bobby doesnt tell you, right? she answered shooting him a deadly glare before facing me again.

"Bobby came to call me yesterday night when you pass out, so I came to tre at you before heading back to maids quarters.

"You treat me right," I asked and she nods

"Did you change my clothes "I found my self asking before I could even stop myself.

"You mean your clothes, I change it off cos but I forgot to bring another yo u another cloth that's why u end up wearing the devil clothes' she answere d making me sign in relief.

I look at Bobby who is trying to ignore us.

"Why did you lying I found my self asking.

"Whatever "he mutter before heading to the kitchen leaving me with Melani

VU Bobby porou

"Whatever" I mutter angrily before walking towards the kitchen, I just hate this Melanie.

I scoffed before opening the fridge to take bottled water, I open it before ta lking the bottle to my mouth gulp in the water from the bottle.

I was about going back to the bedroom when my phone suddenly vibrates in my pocket I quickly bring it out but immediately I find out it was my father that messa ge me I hiss before opening it.

"Come to the family sitting room right now cos some visitors are waiting for you.'

I read the message again

What's this old man up to I mutter angrily before heading out?

I Round Melanie and Adriana still sitting and at the same time talking in my room. I dont even say anything before I head towards the door but stop when I was about to open it before facing them.

"Get the fuck out of my room before I come back and you I point at Adrian a, report to me in the next one hour after saying this I push the foot open i n frustration before heading downstairs.

I keep thinking about many things as I keep walking.

I got to the family sitting room door before pushing it open.

My dad and my mom are already sitted and one man in his early forty 1 dont think I have seen him before.

But he somehow resembles my father.

"Am here "I mutter without greeting them.

I walked to a couch before sitting down.

"Why did you called me," I asked looking at my dad.

He clearg his throats before facing the man that is sitting beside me.

"Do you remember this man, j mean my younger brother Donald he said stile facing the man

"You mean you called me here for this silly introduction I spat out before I could stop my self.

The man flinched a little before smiling at me.

Maybe he doesnt remember me the man mutter or let me say Mr. Donald mutter

"Whatever 'my dad mutter anger was clearly shown in his voice but I don't care.

My mom is not even saying a word she was just looking at me maybe she is angry about what I did to her the previous night.

Just want to let you know that my younger brother Donald son is going to he living with you for a while cos your mom and I were going on a trip to America this weekend and we may spend up to three months before will return.

"Then what, I'm I a kid that is in need of a nanny, how can you be tellin g me someone is going to be living with me. I mutter angrily looking at Mr Donald or whatever

"Boy have concluded on what to do, he's not going to be sharing the same room with you in the first place and as a matter of fact the mansion is very big you may not even see yourself for a whole week", he sighs before continue again.

"Remember he's my brother's son so he is also my son "he mutter, as he adjusts his cap.

I am about to say something when someone's voice cut me off.

"I'm here dad I heard the voice

I look up to catch a glimpse of the person but I was shocked at seeing him.

The blonde hair guy at the ballroom

What are you doing here, are you not the guy I catch talking to Melissa yesterday, night I mutter while standing up, but instead of him to reply he just return it with a fake smile.

I am still looking at him and confused at the same time.

I am about facing my dad to ask him when Mr Donald's voice suddenly cut me off by saying.

"That's my son Oraven that's going to be living with you.
