Chapter 17

Third person Point of View

Lucy find it hard to believe his boss hired Viola to pretend as his girlfriend to his parents, the little time she has spent with Viola, she found out she is from a lowly home, though his boss is hired her to pretend as his girlfriend still it displeased her, he wished her boss could have use her instead of Viola, may be she might have a chance with her boss.

Through the motor side mirror, she saw Viola checking herself out in the motor mirror, she hissed seeing how happy she was with the hair style on her head.

"She has suffered for long" she muttered inwardly.

"I love the hair" Viola said to her with a broad smile on her face.

"I can see that you have not do this kind of hair style before with the excitement on your face" Lucy said sarcastically.

"Yes, I haven't" Viola replied innocently.

"Yes I know, where will you find money to do this kind of hair? You can't even afford to have good phone'' Lucy muttered under her breathe and flashed Viola a pretentious smile.

Viola looked at her with a frowned face," I heard that"She said.

"Hear what " Lucy said angrily, she has decode Viola heard what she said.

"Don't bother, I will have money one day too, is just a matter of time. I will work hard and have earn money than you''She said and Lucy busted into laughter.

"Money is not by hard work" Lucy said, but Viola concentration is no more with her, she notice they will soon reach the hospital where her brotherr Jaydeen is admitted.

"Please can you do me a favour" Viola said to Lucy

"Which is" Lucy replied, but her gazed is focused on the road as she continue driving.

"I want to drop by at the nearest hospital" she said

"To do what?" Lucy said and spared her a gaze.

"Someone I know is admitted in the hospital".

"Okay. Is the person a feminine, or masculine''Lucy asked her.

"Masculine, but why asking?" Viola said

"Nothing, but I can't wait for you to check on a patient, I have a lot on my desk in the office, I came here because my boss want me to help"

"Okay, but can you hide it from your boss, I will go by myself and return home myself, your boss won't know anything about it,I will tell him you drop me off and kicked off immediately" Viola said to Lucy with a pitiful looked on her face.

"There is no problem, since you won't involve me. My boss must not know I didn't drop you, if he did you won't find me funny" Lucy said in a scary tone.

Viola find her threat funny, "if she know me she won't dare threaten master of threat" Viola said inwardly.

Viola Point of view

Few minutes later, we arrived at the hospital, I hopped down from the car and thank her for dropping me, but I can't forget how she insulted me earlier, I thought of a way to pay her back, since that is my hobby,I don't allow people insulted me and go scot free without pay back.

She was about to roll up the windscreen when I halted her.

"Before you go, can I know your name, I know you don't like me neither do I like you too, but I want to know your name for identification purpose" I said and rolled my eyebrows waiting to see anger in her eyes.

Just as I predicted, she frowned her face and gave me a questioning looked.

"What did you mean? You don't like me, did I care if you do or not, moreover I don't wish to tell you my name since you are not the kind of people that can belongs to my buddies" she said angrily.

"Oh my bad, how can your boss girlfriend belongs to your buddies, I'm sorry, it will be disrespectful to your boss if you befriend his girlfriend " I said with a smirked on my face, I love to play people like her, how dare her said I can't afford the hair on my head

"What did you mean?" She said, and I felt venom the anger in her voice.

"I said, I'm bigger than your buddies since I'm your boss girlfriend" I said and smile inwardly.

"What " she said angrily.

"You are just a hired girlfriend" she said and I regretted telling he,I will be working for her boss for three days as his girlfriend.

"He can't even make someone like you his friends, don't you dare dream more than who you are" she said

"Did I say I'm dreaming like you to please your boss on bed" I dropped the jackpot and I can see how wide her mouth was opened as I let out my last painful word to her.

I didn't wait for her feedback, I have got what I wanted and I'm please with it, I know she can't deny not having feelings for her boss, I saw the way she looked at me when she sighted me beside her boss, her eyes says it all. I strode towards the hospital and refuse to look back.

When I reached the entrance of the hospital, I looked back to check if she is still there or not.

I looked back and her my eyes landed on her red bloodshot eyes, she had came down from the car and stood beside her car.

"Thank you for the ride" I said cheerfully to her and turned my face back to the entrance.

Craziness should be my other name, I know how crazy I can be.

She must be boiling Inside, I guess.

I forget about her and move into the hospital.

The two nurses that mocked me was the first glanced I sighted as I entered the reception.

Greeting people was one of my hobby but I don't want to waste my hobby on them, since they are nurse who specializes in mocking people instead of them saving life.

I walked past their depository and walked into my brother ward, I didn't meet Ronnie, and Jaydeen has not opened his eyes.

There is oxygen in his mouth, truly my brother is in coma, tears pricked my eyes as I watched Jaydeen on the bed.

"You made him like this" my conscience popped out.

"How" I asked my conscience.

"If you have tried to see your brother the day his death was announced to you, his surgery could have been perform earlier and you could have save him''my conscience replied.

Feeling hurt is an understatement, I have not thought it this way, If Jaydeen die that means I killed him. The thought popped out instantly.

" No I didn't "I keep muttering and crying silently so as not to disturb other patients.

"With an unhappy mood, I walked out of the ward since Jaydeen became unbearable for me to watch, I can't bear to think I made him like this.

I strode towards the elevator that lead to the doctor office, I want to meet with the doctor to know about my brother health". He must not die.

Octavia Point of View

*

It has been four hours I left Lucy and Viola, my parents has called and said they land in France soon.

"What is keeping them long" I asked myself an rhetorical question.

I need Viola to come and cook before my parents will arrive, I don't want them to eat fast food in the first day they will meet my girlfriend, she must leave a good impression on them.

I brought out my phone and dailed Lucy number since I don't have Viola number, it ranged and Lucy picked the call with no delay.

I must say Lucy is the most competent staff in my office, she discharged her duties diligently except occasionally.

"Hello Boss" She said over the phone.

"Where are you guys, did you want to use the whole day to do her hair?" I asked her angrily over the phone.

"We are done with the hair boss"

"Then where are you? "

"Viola asked me to drop her off, she said she want to see a guy, and told me not to let you know" Lucy said to me.

"Then why are you telling me" I asked her.

"Boss" she stammered.

"Lucy, you are sick upstairs. Is there a clog in your ear or you brains is not functioning well. I told you to drop Viola in my house, but you did otherwise. What did you want me to do now, my maid is not around, Viola that suppose to come and cook, is out there and my parents will land in France soon. Lucy just beg your star for Viola to come now" I said over the phone and I can say my tone sound scary.

"Boss, I'm sorry sir but can I come and help with the cooking since I don't have much to do again in the hospital again, Viola can continue whenever she comes".

I don't like missing work with my family matters, Lucy is a good girl but I don't find it securing.

I lifted my face to check the time on the wall clock.

"Thank you Lucy, I will be expecting you" I said to Lucy since I don't want to call Ronnie, I gave her permission to catch fun with her family and I don't want to take it away from her again.

Impatiently i hoped and waited for Viola to come before Lucy will arrive.

I want to find out where she gone to, after I gave her rules that bind the days she will pretend as my girlfriend.
