CHAPTER 2 (A DEAL IS A DEAL)
It was already night again and I knew Mr Smith and his men would surely be waiting for us in his pub to receive his little present. Henry was already waiting for us downstairs and I'm sure by now he's fuming in anger but hey he'd has to wait for the princesses to get ready right?. we were the once who suffered to get these diamonds so it won't hurt if he waits a little bit longer besides he could have gone for them himself
"Hey girl, are you done? we are running late " Hazel shouted at the other side
"Yh, I'm done. Haz . I'll be there in a sec"I shouted back at her
I combed my hair with my hand as it fell freely on my shoulders. my hair was pretty long and I liked it, today I just felt like leaving it loss like that so it could feel some fresh air.
I wore a white nike joggers with side pockets and a black crop top matching with my black and white nike shoes. I wore a black nose mask and only my blue eyes were showing, reminding me of the day mom left . I shook my head to get that memory out of my head. I looked at my self one more time before heading out.
"Woh,woh ,woh are you trying to go and seduce the man or what ." Henry blurted out
"what"I raised a brow at him walking closer to them
Hazel walked over to me and brushed a strand of my hair behind.
"baby girl,all he's trying to say is you are looking cute and at the same time hot. any guy would be left breathless upon seeing you. if this goes on I'm sure to meet my brother in law very soon"she teased
"really?you are not looking hot but rather me. I'm not the one wearing a relatively short tight skirt revealing most off my curves and also a crop top which is also made out of lace technically making me look hot. it's you,Haz .so you guys stop talking about how hot you think I'm looking and drag your asses and let's leave. "I uttered taking the lead
"hey chill okay. I was just saying, I didn't mean skin me alive with your words "Henry sounded displeased
"whatever, now start the damn car and let's get going"
********
In the pub, the place was very busy even though it wasn't a Friday night which was obvious since it belongs to Smith. it seems like they already have the news that we are here cause I could see one of his men walking up to us .
"did you bring what you were ordered to bring"he asked
"why don't you watch the news or your dumb brain told you we'll come here empty handed"I scoffed
he made an advance to me but I didn't flinch,none of us did. Besides that's the rule of the game"DON'T ACT SCARED OR YOU'LL BE FOOLED"
"Watch your mouth young lady"
"And try to use your head always"I fired back as I took a step forward, indicating he can't mess with me
I could see the anger in his eyes but then how many fucks do I give?ZERO Before he could even try doing anything bad,a voice backed from behind him
"Hey Bruce, don't scare our little guests away would you.go inside and attend to our other guests, I'll handle these ones"Mr Smith said
The so called Bruce spared me one last glance before leaving
"Don't mind him.he'll get use to it"
"he better adapt quick " Henry said
Mr Smith turned his attention to me
"baby doll, aren't you suppose to be preparing for school tomorrow?
"not that it's your business but yes" yeah great I still school. you might be wondering how I balance school and work, well that's for me to know and you to find out.
"come on, let's go inside and discuss business"he gestured us forward into a private room. we sat down and he stretched his hand forward , indicating that I should pass the brief case containing the diamonds forward. What did he take us for?a bunch of kids or what. Sure right I know we are kids but we aren't fools you know.
"if you wanted it this easy, you could have as well sent some of your men to bring it you but you needed professionals so our money first" I smirked
"trust me,I won't take your money anyway"
"and it's not like I'd be taking your diamonds away besides I have no interest what so ever in these stones ,all I care is my money so give it first and you'll get your stones ."I argued
he sighed and could see his disappointment since he couldn't hold his babies first but I really didn't care about that.
"Bruce bring me the three suitcase!!"
I smiled when I say Bruce handing the cases over to him
" Here you go, Baby doll.Now my diamonds"
"No ,Mr Smith lemme check if my babies are intact then you can have yours"
he passed the money over to us and after checking I realized everything was intact.
"here, you can have yours"I threw the suitcase over to him
"come on guys let's leave"I gestured the rest for us to leave
"how old are you"Mr Smith voice trailed behind me
"19 any problem?
"No, you really know business for a girl your age. Looking forward to continue doing business with you"
"we'd be looking forward to it"and with this we made our way out of his private room with our money
"wow, Angel.that was mad. you really are getting better than me with every single moment past" Henry said making me chuckle.
"how about we get some drinks to celebrate"Haz suggested.
"No can do,girl. it's not even Friday night and besides I'm getting poor grades in biology. if Nanny gets to know, you know that's the end of me besides we have a test tomorrow and just because we skipped yesterday for the operation doesn't mean we can skip tomorrow just because of some silly hangover. soooo we are going straight home and I'm driving!!"I shouted dashing out of the pub. I could just imagine the horror in their eyes as they run after me. it's not my fault I'm now learning how to drive and they don't wanna get killed because of my poor driving skills but I know I'd get the hang of it soon. I'm just so bad because Henry is my teacher, he's so bad at teaching that made me wonder why nanny insisted on him teaching me. we turned the music on high as we sang our heart out on our way home. yesterday and today have been so hectic and I just couldn't wait to lie on my bed
***********
"who are those who just left"
"I don't know,sir. I'm sure it's just a bunch of high school kids roaming about"
"the one with the blonde hair,I can't read her . which is so weird so find out more about her"
"sure sir" Isal said and then disappeared from my sight. I sipped my wine as a smirk formed at the corner of my lip
"Interesting"
