CHAPTER 21
PHILIP'S POV
Philip goes over to the bed, Staring at letter, he didn't know if he was ready to read it yet, He hold the letter in his hands, but he couldn't open it.
So he drops it inside his School bag, Probably his friends could read it to him or maybe Magedelene.
The thoughts of Magedelene makes him smile so big. He lies flat on his bed, brings out his phone, he's literally abandones his Phone. He clicks on the power button , hes got messages, calls from his Parents, Friends and Magedelene.
The thought of Magedelene being worried about him makes him really smile again.
He goes ahead to call her, on the fifth ring she picks.
"Hey, Philip, I have been so worried about you". She speaks first before he could
He chuckles this time "I'm really sorry, I just needed time off from everything".
"I totally understand you". She sighs deeply on the Phone.
Philip goes on to say something silly "I like the fact that you were worried about him".
He could hear a laugh escape from her, he could also hear shuffling of papers. "What you doing right now". He inquires.
"Oh, I accepted the offer from that Art Collector Guy, He's been asking of you though". Magedelene replies still working on the paper.
" You mean Sam". He asks as he raises his brow up. "Yeah, So he's asked me to gather up a few sketches or some Art, But I was waiting for you to hit me back up, So to let you know that I have agreed to work with you".
" Ohh ". The words escapes from Philip mouth". Magedelene quickly chips in "Please if this is too much for right now, I really dont-----".
Philip chips in "Oh, I didn't mean for it to come out that way, that means I will be bringing in my Marketing aura".
" Oh if you say it like that". Magedelene says distracted. "You know what, let's meet up". Philip says.
"You know, am quite busy, Let's meet at my place". She replies him, Philip could tell she was so absentminded.
"Yeah, just come over, I really can't gather all these things and come out right now, I am a mess right now, infact my room is a mess". He could tell from her voice.
" Okay, give me some minutes, I'll pull over". He says as the line drops.
He goes over the bathroom, it been a while since he been to the bathroom, he freshes up neatly, puts on some nice cloth from his wardrobe, puts on his Roll-on and Perfume.
He looks at the mirror, making sure he looks good, he grabs his laptop and put it in his School bag. He grabs his room key and his car key. Maybe this deal with Sam would distract him, he was really looking for ways to take his mind off things.
Few minutes later, he had gotten to her place.
He messages her "Am at your place". Few seconds later, she replies "Am coming, give me like two seconds". Magedelene replies hastily,
He could hear her arranging, she's putting things in place.
Philip picks up his phone, to reply his friends telling them that he was alright.
As he raises his head up, he sees her coming towards her gate, he gets down from the car, she is really looking tired but always looking good each time.
They were both facing each other, she's smiling, She's comes over to him giving him a hug, leaving a little bit of space between them, Philip smiles and brings her closer hugging her very tight.
"I miss you". The words escapes from her lips. Magedelene releases herself from the embrace, looks at his eyes still smiling,
"I'm happy you are getting better". Looks at him again as Philip smiles "We should get inside, there's loads of work to be done".
Philip enters her room, the aesthetics, the interior, her room is dope,
Her room is painted in white, The bulb is pink, You could find wallpapers, Art on the wall, Collections of her own art and sketches pinned on the wall.
"Is this what you call a mess". He inquires, because her room is sparkling clean with fancy and mature deco
"Yes it is, am just so tired". She crashes on her bed.
" Let me order something, it seems you haven't eaten anything yet". He says, already typing into his phone
"Yes, please get fries, hamburger and milkshake". Magedelene says as she gathers all the sketches She's been doing.
Philip types her order and his, asks her for her address for the deliver guy.
Philip picks up the sketches she recently did, looks at it, it entails Anime, He didn't even knew she drew Anime. " Did he ask for sketches of this" He asks
" Oh yes he did, I really don't know if it good enough". She says tiredly.
Philip looks at her like she was crazy, " This is fabulous, he would be crazy if he doesn't see the effort you used in making this". He assures. She mouths 'Thanks' and looks at the sketches.
"So, how can I be of help". He inquires
" Yeah, Since you are into the market business, I really don't wanna be cheated here, I want you to show me this strategies". She says as she's still putting things into place.
" Okay I could do that, I know the bargaining market well". He nods as his eyes follows her.
"You know am new to this kind of contract, Am used to a fixed price, now I will be dictating my own price now, So it kind of huge, I really just dont want to mess this up". She says as sits besides him.
He brings her hands into hers " Stop thinking that way, Real talk here, you are great at this, you're one of a kind seriously".
Magedelene brown eyes shines with brightly.
"So, Do you want us to call him now". Philip asks. "No, after the food, am quite starving, I just realized it". Her eyes resting on his face
Philip looks at her room again, "Your style and interior is cool, what exactly don't you know how to do?".
She looks away shyly, She comes closer to him, speaking gently "Philip, How are really you doing?, have been really worried". Magedelene says with a concerned expression.
