TARA'S POV
After that incident at Best Global, I hadn't been myself. I felt like committing suicide but whenever it came to my mind, I always thought about my parents, my friends and everyone around me.
I had to take one week absent leave from the hospital. Thanks to Cassandra and Alex, they took turn to take care of me. Alex had been so supportive. He took me out almost everyday.
Today being Friday, we settled for the cinema to watch movie, but before that he said we should do some window shopping.
So we ended up going to Ikeja City Mall. But something happened, we saw Eric and Annabelle and I lost interest immediately. They walked up to us upon seeing me.

That explained why she was here.Cassandra picked a crop top and a denim jacket with a high waist jeans trouser.

ERIC'S POVRECAPI was so angry at Anabelle but I had to conceal it from Tara so that it would not ruin our lunch date.After the date, I dropped her at the foundation and drove to my father's mansion instead of going back to the company....I hoped and prayed that he would be at home.I arrived there some hours later and drove into the compound, his car was there."Thank goodness, he is at home."

But I really love teddy bears.I did my prayers and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
