100 Days With Mr Romero CHAPTER 65: UNEVENTFUL CHILDHOOD
FLASHBACK:After his father's burial, Gideon came to terms with the fact that he will he sent to a boarding school. His notion of a boarding school was tough, uneventful and draining and of course it was for him especially during the first period of his junior year. "Boarding school will make you tough Romero." his mother once told him and to an extent Gideon felt it did. However, he had vowed that he will never subject Ryan to that kind of torture. Later on, he was informed that other boarding schools were well run but as far as Gideon was concerned, boarding schools aren't meant for broken children especially at tender ages when they needed to experience ideal childhood. "This is Gideon Romero. " introduced the science teacher to the class. He was introducing little Gideon who had just been enrolled into the junior high school, a boarding school. Gideon was staring at his shoes shy of lifting his head up or maybe he was afraid. It was his first day at the boarding school. Few week

Gideon knew if he doesn't come out of the car to address the issue, he will be late for work that morning especially when Judy had just texted him that clients were on their way for a business meeting."What exactly do you mean by that mother? " he asked her coming out of the car. Fiona went and stood beside his mother holding her bag firmly. "You wouldn't listen to me yesterday would you? Instead you choose to flirt around with that secretary of yours instead of hearing what your Mother had to say" Catherine accused her son, as she placed both hands on her hips with the hope of intimidating Gideon. He stood motionless without a word. "Now listen Romero. Fiona has been employed from this day as one of your staff henceforth, consider her an employee. " his mother told Gideon whose expression depicted shock. Gideon knew he will be late for his business meeting and he had no time to spare for some drama so he left the two women standing, got into the car and sped off to his office. His

CHICAGO: The night Sam attacked Mike, he couldn't fall asleep. He tossed from one end of his bed to the other feeling guilty and ashamed. He felt terrible and couldn't stop regretting over what he did and the long lasting torturous impression he must have inflicted on Emma. What must Emma be thinking? he wondered. In a bid to prevent Mike from presenting him to her as a maniac, he had revealed to her, a part of him which he was trying to protect. He quickly got out of bed, pulled a bottle of Vodka from his bar in the living room and crashed on his couch. He was a mess at that moment and he knew it but what was he to do? The next day, he woke up to an empty bottle of Vodka with his head banging and he was having blurred visions. He drank too much last night; he knew it. He staggered upstairs and managed to take a shower. With a towel around his waist, he fell on his bed dialing Emma's number. He called her severally but she wasn't picking. He was aware she was ignoring him because

"What do you want? " Emma yelled at Sam after she opened her door and met him standing there motionless. He had called and texted her severally but Emma wasn't willing to listen so he showed up at her door even after she had warned him never to step foot in her apartment especially after his previous violent reaction. He was looking tensed. Emma immediately tried to slam her door at his face but luck wasn't on her side that morning. Sam quickly held the door and forced himself into her home. Emma groaned in frustration. Sam went inside and stood beside her TV set looking at her."I am sorry I forced myself in. " he apologized."Have a seat. " Emma said after all he was already in and there was nothing she could do about it. When Mike revealed to Emma Sam's mental condition. There was no denying that she felt sorry for him. No one deserves such a fate she thought. However, she was mad at Sam for hiding such information from her. She sure didn't expect him to walk up to her saying ‘H

"I am deeply sorry sir. " Emma pleaded with the manager at the restaurant she has just secured a job with. She was resigning. She had thought about returning to Sam's bar after his plea the other day. She knew Sam is in a vulnerable state right now and returning to work in his bar will mean a lot to him. "It's okay Emma.

" she said cleaning her forehead with her left hand. "The circumstances at hand is just something I can't overlook.. I am terribly sorry sir."

The guests they were expecting had already graced the seats of the conference hall awaiting Gideon Romero their host. As Gideon headed to the conference hall, he wondered if he went too far with his mother over the whole Fiona issue. He yelled at her and questioned her motherly role. He felt she provoked him and his outburst was justified. However, Gideon felt bad for screaming at his mother like that and he was bothered what her reaction might turn out to be. She must be disheartened. He thought. He heaved a deep sigh and entered the conference wall. Meanwhile in Gideon’s office:Gideon's mother Catherine Romero fell back on the couch opposite the chair Gideon sat earlier. She was taken aback by Gideon's retaliation which she didn't expect.

Catherine was glad Judy didn't notice Fiona's weird reaction so she winked and moved her head a little higher signaling to Fiona to play along. Fiona being an upcoming actress and having acquired some acting skills, immediately put on her acting shoes and swung to action. She headed towards Judy. Meanwhile, Judy was behind Gideon's desk holding the file she had come to pick. Her hands were wrapped around the file and she was fighting so hard to keep the blank expression on her face. She couldn't believe Gideon had a fiancee all this while.

She managed to stand her ground hiding the storm that was growing in her. "Well I don't need any formal introduction again. Do I mother in-law?
