2024-10-29 19:42:56Fortune looked at the guy in front of her who didn't seem to be lying. She took out her notebook and gave it to him "please make sure to give it back before class tomorrow morning". "Thank you so much, I really appreciate, and rest assured that I will return it before class tomorrow" Brandon responded with a smile. Fortune nodded her head and was about to turn when she heard him speak out "may I know your name please?" Brandon asked. She subconsciously paused for a few seconds and replied "Fortune". " oh, alright then fortune,see you tomorrow". Brandon responded and snappily walked away. Asia who witnessed the scene giggled and mischievously looked at fortune. "you see why I say I can't compete with a beauty like you?" it's only been your first day in school and guys have already started chasing after you". Fortune gave her a white look and ignored " Asia stop blabbering around, you know he only needed help come on". "Fortune stop acting naive, don't tell me you didn't notice how he was looking at you". "The guys eyes were glued only on you like you were the only person he could see, he likes you" Asia exclaimed in an exaggerated tone. "love is a beautiful thing and that guy is so nice, if I were you, I wouldn't even hesitate for a second". Fortune rolled her eyes and responded " Asia, love is indeed a beautiful thing but you have to be careful. each time we fall in love so deeply, we put our hearts at risk. it's like giving someone a loaded gun pointed to your head". "Fortune being rigid won't help you at all, some day you will fall in love" at this time, a face flashed through Fortune's mind and she still remembered that guy, Alex. No fortune, why must you always think about him, it's crazy how I get to still remember a person who probably doesn't even remember me. Asia is right, it wouldn't hurt giving it a try with someone else. After all, I have never really had time to entertain any guy not to talk of having a boyfriend. she sighed and made a decision not keep on wallowing in the past.
Fortune turned to her friend and asked "Asia tell me something, how sure are you that he likes me?". Asia answered with a solemn expression "he lied to you about missing his morning classes cause i noticed him the moment we stepped into class. you were not paying attention to the people around you that's why you probably didn't see him. I was wondering why he would lie to you but I figured it was a way for him to get close to you". Asia said all this in one breath making sure not to miss out any important point. "So that's how it is". Asia nodded her head vigorously with a bright light in her eyes,in hopes that her friend would finally have a boyfriend. since high school, this dense friend never had a care when it came to guys. Now that they were in the university, it was normal to have a boyfriend , Asia thought to herself. "Fine then, I will think about it though he hasn't said anything to me so it's not ok to make any assumptions" fortune said to her friend. "girl I'm sure that guy likes you, he will tell you unless his a sissy" Asia chuckled at what she said and both of them laughed.
Early the next day, Brandon was the first person to come to class and seeing that fortune hadn't yet arrived, he decided to stand by the door and wait for her. 30 minutes later, Fortune's figure appeared in Brandon's eyes accompanied by her friend Asia. He felt a little nervous but had to put himself together. He smiled at fortune who had reached the door and greeted her as well as Asia." thank you for your notebook". fortune looked at him and didn't want to embarrass him "it's nothing really" she replied plainly and went to class. At lunch, few minutes before fortune went out, Brandon hastily accosted her "fortune can I please take you out for lunch?" Brandon asked politely. She looked at her friend who silently nodded and motioned for her to accept. fortune looked at the guy standing in front of her and nodded. Brandon was ecstatic upon seeing her accept and led the way. He took fortune to a fast food cafe outside the school. it took them almost ten minutes to get there and fortune got a little impatient but decided to remain calm. she looked up at him and asked "sorry but what's your name?".
Fortune felt a little abashed cause she didn't even know his name. "Brandon is my name". "oh okay Brandon so why choose to come this far when we can easily have food from one of the restaurants within the school?". "I chose to come this far cause it's less noisy and not crowded". fortune nodded her head and felt he was right. Few minutes later, they arrived and found a suitable place to sit. As a gentleman, Brandon first asked fortune what she would like to have, she told the waitress what she needed then Brandon made his order. The atmosphere between them felt a little depressing so Brandon started to bombard the girl in front of him with different questions just to get to know her better. Looking at his watch, there was still time left, they were given 1 hour 30minutes for break. As their food was served, they started to dig in. Fortune ate without having to care much about any courtesy cause she had been starving . After their meal, they went back to class.

As soon as fortune walked in, she saw Asia intensely concentrating on her book like she was trying to get something out. "Asia what are you reading?" fortune asked with a little curiosity. Asia jumped up like a child who was caught doing something wrong and quickly hid the book."fortune you are back, actually an announcement was made saying classes will have reshuffles". Fortune looked at her friend with suspicion "tell me, what were you reading just now?". Asia felt she couldn't hide it from this girl so she pulled the the book and showed it to her friend "HOW TO MAKE A MAN WANT YOU" fortune couldn't hold back and started laughing at this crazy friend. "Asia listen to me, you don't have to change yourself because you want a man, you are perfect the way you are and if a guy must like you, he must like you for who you are, for the real Asia". oh no Asia pouted her lips "fortune it's easy for you to attract guys cause you are a beauty".

"oh, is there anything important you would like to say to me?" fortune thought he wouldn't run all the way just for a greeting. "actually, I was hoping to ask you out for dinner if it's ok with you".

" ok I promise to bring you back before that time and I will come pick you up at the school gate at six o clock since I'm not familiar as to where you staying and can you please give me your number?"Brandon said this in one breath. fortune nodded and gave Brandon her cell phone number. After class, Asia was so eager for her friend as if she was the one going for dinner. they left school at 5pm as usual and headed straight for their apartment.

"fortune tell me, how did it go? come on spit it out and tell me" Asia exclaimed. Fortune walked in "can you please give me a break, I just arrived". "ok fine,fine I'm waiting" Asia said with a hint of impatience in her voice. Fortune had to freshen up first and took her time on purpose just to make her friend feel irritated. As soon as she was done, she was preparing herself to leave her room when her door was suddenly pushed open. Asia walked in with an aggrieved expression on her face. "fortune will you please stop this and tell me, I know you are doing it on purpose but please, please just tell me now" Asia said in a pleading tone like a child begging for candy. fortune smiled and sat beside her friend she narrated everything that happened in detail. "fortune don't tell me you are hesitant because of that guy who probably isn't thinking

Brandon was taken aback by the way they addressed each other."cousin" so they are cousins. "Brandon, Brandon" fortune called out to him several times before he snapped out of his immersed thoughts "Brandon what's wrong with you?" fortune asked with a confused expression. "oh no I was just thinking about something, come on let's go in" Brandon snappily said this and led the way in. They sat, ordered their food and started to enjoy their meal. Afterwards fortune and Asia had a dessert while Brandon ordered for a drink. Although Asia felt like a light bulb being around Brandon and fortune, she casually had her dessert, after all, she was invited by them in the first place. Brandon had a few more drinks before they left, despite this, he was still in his right state of mind. fortune looked at Brandon and had to accept that his alcohol tolerance was really good. When they arrived, Asia quickly got out of the car, thanked Brandon for the meal and excused herself leaving the two in the car

Fortune who saw this felt like she had seen enough, clearly Asia didn't want to see this man here. Before she could take a step, Zack looked at her and said " let's give them time to talk about their issues. am I allowed to take you out for breakfast?". Anyway since Asia's cousin has said so, she will do as he says. Chris had carried Asia and turned to ask "where's her room and do you have any first aid kit?" fortune pointed in the direction of Asia's room and quickly ran to get the first aid kit and gave it to Chris. looking at her friend who didn't want to see the man in front of her and even turned her back, she was taken aback. how can such a cheerful girl get so angry, she went to the bed side near her friend "Asia, if you need anything, just give me a call, your cousin and I will have breakfast outside".

"When I got discharged from the hospital, my dad had already left for some work so that afternoon, mum and I decided to go out for lunch. walking into the restaurant, mum felt uncomfortable because the main hall had alot of people and the noise was unbearable, I requested for a vip room that would normally have two tables in each room. We walked in and found a lady seated on the other table, we chose the empty table and sat. mum suddenly had to make important phone calls concerning her work and had to go out for a while. I looked at the new phone I had and decided to call you and explain why I suddenly went quiet but then when I was about to tell you everything, that woman happened to be talking to her boyfriend on the phone and said those words not to me but to the person she had been talking to on phone.

Asia nodded and dropped her head not daring to make eye contact with him. Chris sat beside her and hugged her, "it's enough now, I'm fine and you don't have to feel guilty about this". At this moment, the bedroom door was pushed open and a worried fortune rushed in but when she saw this scene, she paused and smiled apologetically then turned and closed the door again. Fortune went and sat beside Zack who was playing games with his mobile phone "hey please tell me what's happening, before we left, Asia was so angry and didn't want that guy close to her but now, she's snuggled up in his arms and seems happy, what's going on?".

Fortune and Asia enjoyed the ride while Zack drove to a restaurant not far from the main villa where they lived. The three had their lunch and went back.Ashley sat in his room, he was in such deep thought that he didn't hear the door being opened. "Ashley, do you have a few minutes to spare?"

Asia sat in her room in deep thought. She sighed heavily then stood up and grabbed her bag then walked out. She asked one of the driver's outside to prepare the car and sat in the back seat of the car. "Ma'am, where am I taking you?" The driver asked respectfully."Hunter's view cemetery " Asia responded lazily. The driver nodded then drove out... ashley stood near the window and looked at the car that drove out, he sighed helplessly and questioned if he was doing the right thing. He knew that Asia would probably never love him cause she had always loved Chris. What will be left of md if she doesn't fall for me? I probably will never have a child in my life cause she will never allow me touch her, but what kind of a life will that be? Am I subjecting my life to some sort of self imprisonment because of love?

I need you, don't go" Asia said in her sleep as tears flowed down her face. Zack was taken aback by this, it was obvious this dream felt real for her.

Take her to the ward, let her rest. Give her something that will help her rest" zack instructed the nurses around then sat on a corner in deep thought. At this moment, he didn't even what he was thinking of. Fortune wiped her tears then walked up to zack's side.

He had never felt this helpless before , the pain was suffocating him , no air conditioning was enough to make the sweat off his forehead stop. He had no idea on how to console Asia or what words to use... Or find something to say that could make her feel better. Zack paced back and forth thinking of what he would do next. Kevin is dead, Alex was also dead, what else could he do in the name of revenge? This feeling was something he had never felt before, he suddenly screamed with all his might then fell to the ground again, panting and sweating. "Zack you need to calm down, it's not like Chris is dead so just..."Only a miracle can save him at this moment" Zack interrupted absent mindedly.

Kevin who was in the crowd signaled for Alex to get ready, he was not willing to wait for Chris and Asia to be pronounced husband and wife....At this moment, Kevin and Alex both stood to their feet, Ashley who was a little absent minded noticed this action and subconsciously yelled in a loud voice "Asia get down".

"Zack come on, must you mock me on my wedding day? Give me a break man, what's wrong with you?""Ok fine, listen here, stop worrying about this little bow tie and pay heed to my words. I am advising you as a friend, women can be a little funny at times, you need to treat your wife with extra care, get her some roses on your way back home..at least do it frequently. I learned this on the internet, it's another way to avoid too much nagging. So if you want less nagging, get her rose flowers on your way back home, get her chocolate or ice cream as well, you know how much she likes such irritating foods.And advising you as a brother in law, don't you dare hurt my little sister, or else I will forget about our friendship and skin you alive"Chris sighed helplessly without knowing what to say."Terry, organize a few of your men, just for security purposes.

Fortune giggled and quickly left the ward. Natasha was taken aback by the interaction between the two and was immersed in jealousy. What does this girl have that I don't have? Why does every man want her? I know fortune is a beauty but I am equally beautiful. I was hoping I could get close to this patient but this silly girl seems to move faster than me. But wait, it seems the two knew each other before now. Anyways it doesn't matter, I need this handsome guy, he must be mine. After all, it's obvious Ken doesn't want me, I lost interest in him the day I saw Zack so why should I waste my time on ken? Natasha was deeply immersed in her own thoughts, forgetting about Zack."Is this how you work?" Zack spoke in a deep voice which startled Natasha."Oh sir, I am sorry about that. Let me quickly check on your wound, we need to make sure there isn't any infection" Natasha spoke in a soft voice.Zack didn't say anything, he let Natasha check on his wound until she was done.
