CHAPTER 1

Asher“For the last time Asher, you are not getting any younger!” My mother yelled at me, her hands on her waist.Her slim nose was upturned in anger as her lips twitched. She looked like she was ready to devour me so, I coiled on my couch.I can’t take her tantrums anymore.Did she really have to do this whenever I wanted to work?I rubbed my forehead. I’m definitely going to get another migraine at this rate.As I stretched to reach out to one of my expensive pills on the table, she grabbed it away from my reach.“I already told you mother, I just need time.” I sighed tiredly.What was her deal anyway? I’m only 29.“Look Asher. You either get someone to present at our family dinner next month, or I get someone for you.” My mother warned, her red plastic nails directly in my face.“Mom?!” I yelled at her.“I have made my decision Asher and nothing will make me go back on it, certainly no one too.” She finalised.“But?” Before I could complain, she turned on her heels and clicked away

CHAPTER 2

AsherI took a day off from work today, to sort out my current problem.It took me a really long time before I could finally sleep off but unfortunately, I couldn’t complete my eight hour sleep.My mother had called me early today to remind me of our deal. She was truly hell bent on making my life a living hell.“Remember Asher, you either find a suitable girlfriend, or I get one for you.” Was her threat before she hung up on me.What the hell was she expecting me to do?Go girlfriend hunting?Well, if I would settle to doing that, there’s one person that could help with that.I lazily got out of bed and picked up my phone, searching for Sebastian’s number.While I was awake last night, I thought of the possible way to avoid my mother’s wrath, as well as her plans for me.There is no way in hell, I’m letting her pick a girlfriend for me from one of the daughters of her numerous lousy friends.I wonder how she copes with all of them.After many rings, Sebastian finally picked his phone

CHAPTER 3

AsherI was enjoying how angry the cleaner had become. Well, she deserved it for soiling my shirt like this.I bet her annual salary can’t even afford my tie.She had even dared to raise her tiny finger in my face.What a nerve she’s got!I was almost smiling at her daring behaviour until I felt something sharp on my face.What the hell?!Did she….just…..hit me?“No way.” I heard Sebastian’s amused voice and turned to him with a hard glare.He quickly composed himself but before I could unleash my anger on the little person that had slapped me, she walked away with no remorse whatsoever.I held my face, still trying to comprehend the fact that a tiny lady just slapped me.“Did….she..just..?” I was finally able to find my voice.“Um…Asher?” Sebastian called me and I looked at him.He shifted closer to me “Everyone’s staring.” He whispered.True to his words, the whole café was staring at me.Aside from when my mother made me wear a shirt to the pool at 17, this is the most embarrassing

CHAPTER 4

OliviaI already applied to seven different companies hiring secretaries.I know the vacancy I was applying for wasn’t worth my standard of education, but I am more likely to not get the job if I applied for something better.Before dad came home, I took my bath and changed into my pencil black skirt and white shirt.Another day as a waitress in that stupid bar.When would it ever end?I packed my hair into a tight pony tail before heading out. It might take a while before I got responses from the companies I applied for. Till then, I have to retain the only job I have left.Hopefully, I wouldn’t be hitting anyone tonight and running off with just an apron.AsherSebastian didn’t support my plan, I knew that but he could do nothing.No one could. I had made up my mind already.I wasn’t one to spend time in clubs nor coffee shops. Most of my time was spent at the office, working while the remaining fraction; at my house, still working.Whenever I felt needy, I just called on one of my

CHAPTER 5

Asher"….what?” Sebastian was taken aback.Just before I could say anything else, Olivia came back with the bottles of water.She was in a haste to leave but I quickly grabbed her hand.“This is not part of your order sir.” She said, nervously.“I know this is your only job Olivia.” I started.“Let me go.” She whispered.“And I know it doesn’t pay enough to take care of your father.” I said and I saw a glint of fear, mixed with surprise in her eyes.She stopped struggling and just stared at me in awe.“ Asher whatever you’re thinking, stop! Let the girl go.” He said, trying to release my grip on her.“So, out of my generosity, I am offering you a job.” Her body relaxed once those words flew out of my mouth.I left her hand but she didn’t walk away.I knew she wouldn’t.“Asher, you are not doing this.” Sebastian tried to stop me, already knowing my plans.I didn’t bother to wait for her to ask what my offer was about, I simply told her.“You need money Olivia, I know that. But I need a

CHAPTER 6

OiviaMy hands dropped to my side and I didn’t know when a tear escaped my eye.The Bank?Was back?“What?!” I said in a barely whispering tone.“I….i got a message this evening Olivia. I had just returned from work. I had thought the message was from you. Probably, you were trying to tell me you were going to come home later than usual tonight and I shouldn’t stand out in the cold. B…..b..but when I checked, it was from the bank Olivia.” My father explained, his shoulders heaving as he cried.I raked my hair with my hands, breathing erratically.“But what do they want?...a..and didn’t we already pay up our loan?” “We didn’t pay the interest Olivia?” My dad reminded me, a tear sliding down his face.“But they can’t hold us for that anymore?!” I found myself yelling.“Olivia…” My father tried to calm me down.“No! They can’t possibly do this to us! The bank manager had let us go without paying the interest. Dad, I remember everything. That day, I was the one who had gone to deposit th

CHAPTER 7

OliviaTwo days had passed since my dad got a message from the bank.I called in sick because I couldn’t afford returning to the bar.I can not run into Asher again. Judging our present state, I’m likely to give in to his offer and that is something I do not wish to do.Maybe if he visits the bar more often, and doesn’t see me there, he’ll forget about me and never visit the bar again.Seems like a bad plan.But well……Bad plan is better than no plan at all.Dad decided to start working two jobs so we could raise the money faster.I tried persuading him not to, but he already made his decision.I was scared to check my email. I can’t hide the fact that I’m black.Because of this, I’ve been afraid of getting another rejection message.Well, I can’t avoid my email forever, can I?What if I eventually got the job and out of my ignorance, I lost it?I still haven’t been able to get Asher’s offer off my mind by the way.I just hope I get the job, and I don’t have to think about him and his

CHAPTER 8

Olivia “Took you long enough.” I heard him say from the other end of the phone. I’m sure he must be wearing a triumphant smirk right now. “Why me?” I asked with a cracked voice. Tears were already rolling down my face. He was silent for a while before he answered. “That’s simply because I know you need the money.” He said, sounding unsure of himself. Seriously? He was making such a stupid offer because he wanted to give me a better life? What is it with this man? “So you think you can just impose on me because I don’t have the money you have?” I asked him, feeling angry. “I’ll pick you up later today, 4pm, sharp. Be ready.” He said, ignoring my question. “No!” I interjected almost immediately. I could imagine he had a frown on his face. “I mean, I would rather come to you.” I said to him. “Your dad, right? Trust me, I can relate.” He said, sounding frustrated. “What?” “Meet me at the bar you used to work.” He said before hanging up. “Used to?” Did he possibly use his

CHAPTER 9

Asher We finalized our agreement and Olivia signed the contact in my presence before we left the bar. For some reason, after I told her we were going to kiss, she went mute. Did she have a problem kissing me? It was just a fake kiss anyway. “I can drop you off.” I offered once we were out of the bar. “Why? Do I resume my duties today?” She said, a grin on her face. And for the first time since we met, I noticed the dimple on both her cheeks. “No, I didn’t mean it like that.” I said, shaking my head. “Just kidding. I have my own ride.” She said pointing over to some van. Wait a damn second. That? She owned that? She called that a ride? That van looks like it would collapse in the next second. It took me the whole world not to laugh at her statement. My ride. “I know, it’s not so presentable. What matters is that it still moves, right?” She said, probably noticing that I didn’t sit well with her ride. “Moves? Olivia, you could have an accident with that thing.” She pur

CHAPTER 10

OliviaWhat?!He can't possibly be serious?I had just signed the contract today!Oh no!Where could he possibly want to take me to?What do I even tell Dad? " Olivia? " I heard my name and jerked?My hands slipped from the dining table. Losing my balance, I twirled before falling to the floor, with my butt." Hey! Are you okay? I didn't mean to startle you." My dad said and rushed to me.He dropped the plates he was holding on the table before crouching to where I was, on the floor." It's fine dad, I'm not so hurt anyway." I said, taking his hand and lifting myself up." Are you sure?" He asked, looking at me worriedly.I chuckled and squeezed his hand." I'm fine dad, for real." He nodded before pulling out a chair for me.My father was such a gentleman. My mother must have really enjoyed her marriage with him before her death." You returned pretty quick." My dad said once we had settled down for dinner."Hmm?" I mumbled in my cup." The bar? You said you were going there fo fill
