# 1 - ** Crunch and Chew Restaurant**Layla's POV The cool morning how breeze blew gently soothing my sweaty skin , my eyes tired and puffy at the same time .I yawned loudly, counting the croissants I had baked since last night. My shoulders and palms ached , I decide to take a short nap before Lady Sia arrives.I moved the little bag of flour off the table, dropped and leaped back on the table. Without wasting much time,my tired body submits so nature takes it course .It was not long ,I felt a hand shake me roughly and droplets of water trickle on my face .I jerk wildly off the dough making table ,my eyes wide with my hands up ready to attack such disruptor of my sweet sleep .The smears of fluffy dough filled my face like the contour of a brown foundation primer used for a make over . “ Will you get off the work table you Nitwit ” Lady Sia yells . She is dressed in an orange gown coupled with a cream coloured shawl wrapped around her neck. Her jewelries dangled fr

## Layla's POV I walked hastily ,after Mrs George whose shoulders were slouched forward . Her steps were neither fast nor slow. “ Get in !” she ordered , her face stern . She threw at me a frown with a ‘start talking’ look .I swallowed , blinking my eyes hard .“ I did not take the money .” I spoke holding the hem of my skirt tightly .“ You'd better speak up before I send you off to the discipline office ” Mrs George warned, wagging her index finger in my face. My heart raced, and I looked down, avoiding Mrs George's piercing gaze . She waits patiently for a response from me .“ You still chose to keep quiet right ? Take this note to the disci—” “ I will speak up Mrs George. ” I interrupted before she completes her statement .“ You will ? ” “ Yes , I saw some dollars bill on the table under the books, but I did not take it .” I uttered “ Who did , if you did not ? What brought about the disappearance of the money ? ” Mrs George half yelled staring at me .“ Adrianna did

ASHTON'S POV “ There she is ” I whispered to myself when my eyes meet hers . She wore a cute frown whilst picking a book that looked like a menu or something more than that .She twitched her lips nervously staring at me, I could hear her heart race a million times faster than usual and she averted her gaze from mine. Nate jumped in excitement pushing me to go and meet her already at the counter area where she stood , I hushed him against it but the man was not even interested in knowing my reasons so I shut him off completely . She finally left the counter heading to my table with the book in her hands and my eyes never left hers for once . She reached my booth and stretched the book out .“ Good day and welcome to Crunch and Chew, what would you care for ? ” She added placing a book in front of me and another in front of Jerome . I merely glanced at the menu in my hand picking anything I saw first and returned it back to her making our hands glide softly against each othe

## 5Ashton's POV “ Betro... thed ? ” I speer rhetorically igniting a puzzled look on my father's face . He adjusts his robe gently,his watchful gaze not leaving my sight for a second and then he turned suddenly who has being quiet since we sat at the table .“ Jerome , talk some senses into your friend maybe he is suffering from amnesia . ” My father spoke authoritatively and with that he left the dining table leaving Jerome and I to ourselves. “ what was the meaning of that ? ” Jerome inquires not sparing me at least a minute to inhale or exhale “ what is what ? ” I responded feigning absolute ignorance of the situation he mentioned .“ You know the reason we came here is that you meet your betrothed , why act astonished ? ” “ Not in two days ” I fired back at him sparing him no room for saying further to me .“ it has to be sooner than later ” Jerome said tapping my back in a soothing manner before heading out leaving me all alone . Nothing made sense to me at this mo

Layla “ What are you doing here ? ” My Father bellowed after he had knocked my head harshly . My eyes suddenly became watery as I thought of a response .He came at the wrong time as Lady Sia will not hesitate to spew all that occured in the restaurant a few minutes ago .My heart raced fast . He is very dangerous and unpredictable especially when it comes to Lady Sia .I could only plead my innocence for pleading sake, my father would deal with me in tremendous ways . Sometimes, I wondered why he bore so much hatred towards me and nothing about me concerned him . He would rather pretend to be good to a random stranger than see to my needs .Everything I wanted right now was somewhere I could go to , someone who could love me more than this people that I was related to by blood .“ Have you suddenly become deaf ? ” My father asked, taking me aback . I nodded my head in disagreement and tried to move away but he seized me roughly by neck .“ Arrgghh ” I groaned in pain t

Layla I headed home after the harsh encounter with my father . The capes of my neck was red and aches badly . I mopped around my neck with a soothing balm Benjamin had offered me .It felt so good to be home after a week . I had a space that my Father leased out to me due to my aunt's request so I wasn't sent to the workhouse .It contained all my mother's belongings and a torn photo of her carrying me in her arms . It was just her arms , never knowing what she looked like .My room was a moderate sized one , it had a large bed and old fashioned curtains which Lady Sia insisted I kept using .I threw my tote bag on the bed , it contained my school uniform , worn out shoes and a few gowns I used at the restaurant for the week . Yawning widely ,I made for the kitchen to grab ice cubes for my neck . I grabbed a handkerchief and filled it with five ice cubes before closing the freezer gently . I placed it gently on my neck enjoying the sweet relief when I heard murmurings in t

## 8 Ashton My peering sight never left hers for once . I merely acknowledged the presence of my would be Luna all because I was lost staring at this damsel whose soul called out to mine .Everything seemed like a fairytale to me and I could find myself getting up from the chair i sat on .A gentle nudge against my shoulders brought me back to reality with a peering sight on me . I cleared my throat gently and glanced at my betrothed before averting my gaze from her .“ You have to focus Ashton ” Jerome cautioned in a calm but firm voice .I nodded my head slightly in agreement with his statement. If I wasn't focused this entire occasion could be ruined because of my actions . It was time for the introduction and I rose to bow to my would-be- Luna. She was beautiful as well but not as strikingly beautiful like the other who stood behind her .Her face was round and had patches of moderately applied red powder on both cheeks . It became more obvious each time she smiled .H
