The Mad Joe 2

Tracy jumped up to slap him harder. Joe slapped her back. Sophia began to shout at Joe to leave her friend alone, but Joe refused. He started beating Tracy, and Tracy too was trying her best. Sophia looked around her shop and saw a plank, as he was about to hit Joe with it in order for him to leave her friend alone.

Wilson entered her shop. He was so furious that a man was fighting a woman.

"It's okay!" He shouted

Joe looked in that direction and stopped fighting Tracy. He rushed to Wilson and gave him two hot slaps.

He was shouting that it was because of Wilson that Sophia did not want to accept him back.

Wilson returned the slap, and they began to fight.

Wilson laughed at him, telling him that he was fighting for a woman, that Sophia was his and he could not take her away from him, and that if he did anything stupid, he would make him rot in jail.

Joe's hands dropped as the words Wilson spoke hit him hard. He could not fight again. He just wore his shoes and left.

Wilson quickly rushed to Sophia and started checking her body to see if she was hurt.

He checked Tracy as well, but they said they were fine, but they needed to treat his injury first.

Sophia began to cry again and started blaming herself, saying that it was because of her that Wilson got injured.

Wilson cleaned her tears, saying that it was not her fault, that they were in it together and that he would protect her.

Sophia quickly boiled water, making Wilson rest his head on her lap and begin to clean the wound and massage the surface area of the wood.

Wilson was enjoying it, and he stayed like that for some minutes before he sat up. He knew that there was no doubt that Sophia already loved him. So he thought of quickly having her to himself. He could see that she had suffered in the hands of men, especially the fighter that had just left.

He thanked Tracy very much for standing by her friend and promised them that it would not happen again. Any time Joe comes, they should alert him immediately that he will teach him sense.

Tracy thanked him for saving them and also begged him to take good care of her friend because she has suffered at the hands of men. that he should not disappoint her.

Wilson smiled and nodded. Sophia could not say anything; she was just crying. Within minutes, Wilson dragged her to himself and they stayed like that for a few minutes. Wilson began to crack jokes, and within minutes, Sophia was relieved and she began to smile. Wilson was happy that Sophia was happy again.

Sophia quickly locked her shop as Wilson announced he would take both of them to eat in a restaurant close to her shop.

They got there to eat and chat happily. The joy that filled Sophia at that moment made her forget her sorrow. She was smiling as the thought of all that Wilson had told Joe came to her memory. She was relieved that Joe's words meant he wouldn't bother her again. Tracy was pleased for her friend as well, because her concern about Wilson being hit and run was alleviated.She began to smile as she ate the meal in front of her.

Wilson too could not but smile because the incident had given him more space in Sophia's heart, so his fear had gone.

As they were eating and smiling, they were so engrossed that they didn't know that somebody had taken their photograph.

Sophia was the first one to check the time. She announced that time has passed.

They stood up about going to where Wilson packed his car. Sophia suggested that she and Tracy should opt for a motorcycle to get home fast and always save Wilson from getting home too late.

Wilson objected to the idea that he would take them home and that he could find his way home too.

Wilson maneuvered the car out of the restaurant and headed to Sophia's house.

Tracy was the first to get out of the car. She did that intentionally to give her friend and her new lover privacy.

As Sophia was about to open the door of the car, Wilson dragged her back. She sat back, Tracy said thanks to Wilson and entered her apartment.

There was a moment of silence as Wilson began to stare passionately at Sophia. Sophia just bowed her head as she could not look at his eyeball.

"I'm sorry about today; I hope it didn't hurt," Wilson said.

"No, I'm not! What about your wounds? Won't your parents ask you what happened? " Sophia said calmly.

No, I'm fine; having you with me makes me happy, so I don't feel the pain. And for my parents, my apartment is different from theirs, and I'm not a kid, so nothing to worry about, "he said as he held her hands.

Sophia nodded in response. Wilson brought out a nylon containing some stuff and handed it to Sophia.

"Accept my little gift," he said with a broad smile.

Sophia collected the nylon and was so happy about what she was seeing in the nylon. She didn't know when she hugged him and quickly refrained when she came to her senses. Wilson just smiled and thanked God that despite his promiscuous lifestyle, he had seen a decent lady marry.

"Thanks so much," she said with a smile.

"You are welcome. Can you try the shoe on you if it's your side?" Wilson said softly.

"Alright," she said, as she put on the shoes.

Sophia could not help but laugh.

"How do you know my side?" she asked in a whispered manner.

Wilson just smiled and gave her a quick hug.

"Go and meet your friend; we will talk when I get home," he said.

Sophia got out of his car and began to wave her hands as he was out of sight.

Sophia rushed into her friend's apartment and quickly poured down what Wilson had bought for her. Her friend was happy for her. The clothes and shoes are very expensive, but they are beautiful. She told her friend to pick a pair of shoes and a dress. Her friend objected at first, but Sophia insisted, so she accepted.

Both of them began to discuss and laugh about what happened that day. They started discussing how their wedding would be.

They talked for some hours, and Sophia could not go to her apartment again that night. Both of them slept on the rug.

When Sophia got to her apartment the following morning, what she saw made her begin to shiver.
