Meeting

The next day after college Olivia and Laila decided to go shopping. They came to the nearest mall to buy some fashionable clothes for the banquet. 

Olivia doesn't want to buy anything because she had no money, the money she earned was used for her study or on the monthly necessities she needed for her family.

 She doesn't want to spend her best friends' money because she knows how hard is to earn a single dollar.

Laila saw Olivia standing quite at the corner,  she already guesses what was roaming inside her head.

Laila squinted her eyes and glared at her, ''Why are you standing over there like a mannequin Olivia? come over."

she held Olivia's hand and started lecturing again, "listen woman we need to get the best understand and I'm hungry too." 

Finally, Olivia opened her mouth, ''I have lots of clothes Laila so there is no need to buy anything for me." 

Laila's guess was right so she raised one brow on her again, "Babe tell me do you want to wear those shabby clothes on tonight's banquet. Forget it."

She dragged Olivia searching for some good party gowns and Laila picked some bright colors to gown because bright colors always complimented her. Olivia was wandering into the store, coincidentally she meets her cousin's sister Stacy Stuart, she also came here for shopping with her four best friends.

when Stacy Saw Olivia she gave Sinister a smile at her best friends.

"Look who's here Ms. Olivia Stuart, my beautiful cousin's sister how are you? what are you doing here? Ahaa! don't tell me you also came here for shopping. Look this place is not for you, it's a highly branded shop that you can't afford even in your dream so you know that well my dear sister,"  Stacy was continuously taunting her. 

Stacy and her best friends were started laughing and mocking Olivia but Olivia never bothered to say a single word to them that doesn't mean she won't know how to reply to her bullies.

To her, Stacy is a big bimbo like her other four best friends so just she doesn't want to waste her energy on scum like them. 

Suddenly from nowhere Laila came to them raising her one brow on Stacy and asked them in a bitchy tone 

 ''Whatsup bitches! so you four are coming to this store for shopping. So go on why are you wasting your time on Olivia, do we hurt your hips?

"Umm! no,  So get your Ass out of here?"

"We are lacking energy Stacy so there is nothing we had to waste especially on you and your four plastic friends, haha let's go, Olivia," Laila didn't give her any chance to talk.

After hearing this, Stacy went completely mad and was fuming in anger, she can barely control herself, "I won't tear those bitch's face."

''Stop Stacy you know that they are just jealous bitch, they never look beautiful as you even if they want to so let's go Stacy and come down okay or you will ruin your make up," said one of her friends.

"Yeah let's go buy some sexy dresses for tonight's banquet. some big businessmen like Jackson, Lewis, Roy were attending tonight and girls! we have to try to make them fall for us." Stacy bit her lip in excitement. 

Laila held Olivia's hand and dragged her to the changing room. Laila gave her two grown for a try. 

Both are very bright in color wine and blue .. both are fit well and look marvelous on her but Olivia hesitated because she doesn't like to spend other's Money but it makes Laila angrier,  ''If you are not going to choose any of the selected gowns then I won't go to the banquet, I Swear Olivia. Don't worry babe you can pay me after you get everything from your uncle."

After some pause Laila pacifies her again, "You know your mom's hand-made pudding, o god! I love it, treat me tomorrow evening."

Then Olivia smiled at her and choose the wine gown which is fishtail with blackless.  Laila chooses for her a beautiful pink gown with a deep neck.

Laila and Olivia both are hungry and Laila is a big foody for the past two days she was craving steak, so they take their car to the nearest restaurant and ordered some Steak and salad. 

 When they are busy on their gossiping by coincidence Olivia's eyes meet with Brandon Stuart, he is Stacy's brother and her cousin. After seeing Olivia, his eyes were sparkling like a star. He came to this restaurant to have lunch with some business partners. he never thinks his luck will be this good that he can meet Olivia here after six months.

Before six months Brandon tried to help Olivia with money but Olivia refuses him every time even she warned Brandon before just to stay away from her and her mother but Brandon won't be convinced. Past six months he did not have any time to pester Olivia because he was in England for business schedule.

So today when he saw Olivia again he can't control himself so he excuses his partners and came to their table, "Hey sis how are you? you look beautiful as usual."

''Hello! brother I am good and thank you for your compliment. Brandon just stared at her like a child who just found his long-lost candy. To see him like that Laila lightly coughed and asked him, ''Do you need anything else, Mr. Brandon."

Brandon didn't reply to her question he directly asked Olivia,  "Can we meet some other day sister I miss you, next time I treat you a dinner, and I had something to tell  you it is very important."

"Okay, I will call you whenever I am free." 

Brandon feels so happy and said goodbye to Olivia. 

 ''Ah! your brother gave me a strange vibe ..he seems less brother more like a pursuer."

Olivia laughs out loud,  'Seriously you are talking nonsense, only brother Stuart is good to me among uncle's family, brother helped me before, to find my father. Okay now eat fast and give me a ride to the bar." 

Laila, ''No, no girl not today, you forget we have to go to the banquet tonight, so take a day's leave,  we will get ready in your house. I'll pack some steak for aunt."

Olivia called her manager and asked him to gave her day leave and it made him sad because he loves to see Olivia every day but he agreed with her because Olivia never takes any day off, she work hard always.

Laila said,  ''Let's go Olivia to your house, I'll meet with my lovely aunt after so long."
