OLIVIA.I woke up the next morning feeling completely tired and drained. My hangover had gotten worse and the migraine hit me as though I stumbled upon an avalanche last night. I should have listened to Mike when he told me not to have any more drinks but I was too stubborn and nursing my broken heart that I didn't give him a listening ear. Now I look like a wreck. As if a train just ran over me on the tracks.Pushing myself out of the bed, I made my way into the bathroom to have my bath. I stood under the shower and let the cold water cascade down my body from my head to my toe. I felt a bit refreshed after having my bath and then, I proceeded to pick out an outfit to wear to work today. I glanced at the clock in my bedroom only to realise that I was almost late for work. If I don't leave on time then I wouldn't be able to make it at all. This isn't how I had envisioned my day to go but I had been drunk out of my mind so it's not like I expected to wake up early even if I wanted to.
OLIVIA."This way." He led me towards his car and I willingly followed. I don't want to feel bad about my decision but it was only after I got in that I suddenly felt regret for standing up and leaving Davion to stand there all by himself. He looked shocked and I could tell that he wasn't expecting me to go with a stranger and reject his offer to ride me to work. Not that I am proud of my decision but I would rather accept the offer from a kidnapper rather than getting into a car with him.No matter how I tried to be strong, I still couldn't get past what I had seen last night on the television about his engagement with Sabrina. I still felt betrayed and the more I keep on giving in to him, the more it's going to ruin me completely. I love him and I know that I really do but maybe it's time to accept that our relationship was not meant to be in the first place. While we were growing up our parents separated us from each other and now that we were fully adults, we are being separated
OLIVIA.We arrived at work and I thanked him graciously for bringing me safely. To be honest if it wasn't for him then I probably would have been stranded or stuck waiting for a cab and if the worse had happened and gotten to the point that I couldn't control, I would have taken the option of going with Davion but I'm glad that he came to my rescue when I needed it."Don't sweat it Olivia. I'm glad that I could be of help. I would have done the same for anybody in your shoes. That's what humanity is all about."I was impressed with the way he spoke and the way he carried himself. Not a lot of men are able to do what he did which goes to say that he was a very intelligent person."Alright then, I'll be leaving now." I announced and made to leave but he stopped me."Can I at least have your number?" He asked stretching out his phone to me. "You don't have to give it to me if it's something that you don't want to do. I just want to be able to speak to you sometimes and also give you mor
OLIVIA.I walked into the company and I am surprised to see Mike at the entrance waiting for me. I swiped my card and after gaining access to go through the security, I walked up to him. His jaw was dropped to the ground as he stared at me with shocked eyes. If I didn't know any better then I would have said that maybe he had seen a ghost but knowing Mike, he was always used to making a big deal out of everything."What is it this time?" I asked the obvious even though something deep down inside me told me to just ignore and walk away without saying a word."Did I just see you coming out from Finn Holland's car or are my eyes deceiving me?" He asked and I twitched my lips, lost in thought."Finn Holland?" I repeated and he nodded almost immediately. "He told me that his name was Finn and that was it. Why? Is he someone important?""Are you fucking kidding me right now Olivia?" Mike almost yelled at me but composed himself when he realized that everyone had focused their attention on
OLIVIA."You gave him your number?" Mike yelled at me."Stop yelling!" I told him off. "It was just a number so I don't know why you're making such a big deal out of it.""Does Davion know?" He questioned.I shook my head. "No. Unless maybe you're planning on telling him about it. And why should it matter if I have Finn's number? He drove me to work and although we just met but he's just someone I met and is acquainted with, not to mention that it's my phone so I have the right to decide whose number I want to have in it and whose number I do not want to have.""I want you to be very careful Olivia. Finn and Davion go way back and for him to approach you and asked for your number it's means that he knows who you are and he knows that you are close to Davion so I'm not saying that you shouldn't have friends or you shouldn't hang out with him or you shouldn't get to know him but just be careful so that you don't get used, that's it.""We both know that you're still going through the ph
OLIVIA."What is the meaning of this davian? Why would you bring me here on the pretext of having lunch with me?" I questioned with an angered look on my face. Each time I try to stay away from him, he comes up with more stunts to bring us closer together and it always ends up with the wrong reasons."I thought that I had already made myself clear today that I wanted nothing to do with you. I thought that we had already settled this so why do you keep on adding to The fire that I'm trying so badly to quench before it consumes us?""You're right." He admitted. "You did made yourself clear about the issue at hand but I never agreed to any of them. Olivia I have feelings for you and I can't simply just throw them away.""Well you have to start learning how to throw them away because I don't want to have anything to do with you. The sex was a mistake in the first place. I would never have done anything with you if I had known that you were engaged to be married. I broke up with my husban
.DAVION.It hurts so much to see that Olivia had actually given up on us. When I left the restaurant yesterday, I had only one thought in mind and that was to make up with Olivia and have her forgive me for what I had done to her. I understood that she was hurt and that she needed her space which was why when she chased me away last night I initially obliged even though I didn't want to.I badly wanted to tell her that the dinner date was something I never wanted to attend and that the only reason I went was because Sabrina had threatened to hurt her mother if I did not obey her wishes but she wouldn't listen to me and neither does she want to hear anything I have to say concerning the matter. She only believes that I have lied and betrayed her so how exactly am I going to fix it if she wouldn't even give me a listening ear at least?"do you really want to go back to the office?" I asked and she nodded."As soon as possible sir. I have a lot of work to do and staying here would not
DAVION.We finished with lunch and I paid for my meal. The waiter looked at me in a confused manner as though he was expecting me to pay for Sabrina's meal as well. I wasn't going to pay for her meal because we didn't come here to have lunch together. She came here on her very own so I'm pretty sure that she can pay for her meals as well. She is the president's daughter after all."Davion?" She tapped my arms lightly. "I want you going to pay for the food that we just ate? He's waiting for you to do so.""He is not waiting for me but you. I have paid for mine so you should at least pay for yours or can't you do that much for yourself?" I questioned. "I didn't bring you for lunch Sabrina so I'm not going to pay for yours. I came here because I wanted to have some peace and quiet but you followed me all the way here because you wanted to ruin whatever little privacy I can get away from you and from the media so why don't you do yourself the honours and clear your meals" I stood up from
