"I'm only your pretend girlfriend, your fake girlfriend. There is nothing like us being lovers for now." "What do you mean?" He puts up a slight frown on his face. This is another trait of Raine to be revealed to him, he thought that because of what he said to her, she would be easily manipulated but she isn't. She smiles. "I want to let you know that you haven't asked me out, I'm not trying to ask you to ask me now but we are only in pretence." Her tone follows such a polite and amused tone that Eric doesn't even realize she is saying a very vital fact in disguise. Though to him, he seems like she is joking, he takes it seriously. This makes him take a moment to reflect on himself and his omission. "I know it wouldn't be right for us to go that way too fast!" "Yeah, I know." Raine snaps. "I was just saying you were joking with saying I was your real girlfriend. That aside, let's say something important." He smiles. "You are so lovely, no matter how long it takes for us to becom
The massive settlement of Jane and her family is situated at the western part of the large village, the fences existing for almost three decades but are still strong as ever. Eric and his company are able to view the exterior of the compound through the aid of the street light which illuminates the dark street. No one is seen in sight, it has been gathered by them that once it's 6 PM to 7 PM, everyone takes their place inside their various homes, even if they aren't feeling sleepy, they watch TV or do any other thing till it was time they wished to go to bed. The reason for this is not because the environment is not secured but since it's a village setting, the houses making up the village are detached from each other, not like in cities you can see and have conversation with your neighbors late into the night. "We have arrived at her compound, this it it!" Eric finally notified Raine. "Mako, this is your grandma's home, hope to would be excited to see her?" "Oh my God! I would be
The embrace lasts for many minutes soon after which Raine and Carlos join, Mako with his tiny stature isn't exempted as he holds their legs tight, tears emerges from Eric and Jane's eyes, the sane tears as they had cried on the day of their separation from each other many years ago. The nature varies though, then they were tears of pain and sorrows, but now tears of joy. After many years, mother and son have been reunited. Even if Eric goes back to America, he can always come here, he has his private jet and about four branches of his company in London. The hours of travel are nothing as long as he can work on board with his android and system using the 5G network which is quite usable onboard. He would be feeling like in his home, with all the facilities needed on board, luxurious seats, bedroom, dining room, toilet and bathroom including the gym among many other rooms. "Come inside the house, we have lots of convenient rooms for you to spend the night in. Hope you would stay long
"Wow, you are so amazed mom. My granddad has never told you this before?" She shakes her head. Carlos never mentioned this to her and she never expected that he would give all of his riches to her son. "Oh, he handed over everything to me and it's because of this…. I shouldn't be saying more than I'm supposed to say." Jane holds him urging him to speak out. She dislikes suspense and can't just wait to know what had been happening while she was away from them or while they were away from her. "You know I'm your mom, there's nothing to hide from me.""Not like I'm hiding something from you," he smiles. "A meeting would be organised tomorrow at the round table and ain't Erica would be invited, Carlos would personally ask your husband to be part of the meeting but somehow I don't think it's necessary." Eric can remember what he did many years ago and would never be friendly with him. Jane sees as her son's face changes as his name comes into the topic. She imagines what could be in st
"These people are working and earning well, I think?" "Yes, of course!" "See what I'll do here mom, I would give you a hundred thousand dollars to fund only our feeding for the one week we would be staying with you. At least we want to show that we aren't insensible like the rest who want to be parasites on you mom.""No, don't say that Eric!" His dad warns, he feels he is being insolent here but Eric sees farther than he has even when he is already much older than him. "Mom, don't listen to dad. I would only support you to keep helping them if they didn't have any work to do but as long as they are having a good pay, why can't they fend for themselves?" Carlos and Jane, even Raine starts to see the hidden wisdom in Eric's statement. These people enjoy free accommodation, that one is right because they can't be related to you and still pay house rent but food is quite different. "Why should you be serving the whole community food with your energy and money, do you want to die you
Eric searches online for virtual artists who are in charge of creating the type of video projection he has in mind to give to his aunt, he comes upon a reputable organization in London who are situated not so far from the London Museum. He searches more about them and discovers they have been in existence for a hundred anf two years. "I'll love to go for this organization, they truly know what they are doing." Eric confesses to himself. He checks the reviews of people and eighty percent of them acknowledge their services as being excellent, can't be compared with others.He comes out to meet his mom and granddad to tell them he was going to the studio to make the gift he had promised both of them. They seem glad to hear that he really values his aunt and wants to make her feel special. They all wish, including Raine that she meeting him would create a new turnaround in her life, Eric would bring a miracle which would cure her and take her back to her feet. He enters his second car,
Eric returns home after this, to meet his mother, dad, Raine and Mako. Him going outside had made him a bit relieved, he was now in the mood to talk with his mother. He excused everyone and took his mother to the living room where he sat alone with her and talked in low tones after shutting the door so no one came in to interrupt. "Mom, I think I'm a little bit in the frame to talk about what you said, what is it you wanted me to do for you?" Jane giggles. "Finally my dreams are coming true. I had asked your stepfather to help me but he refused because I left his son, though he was wealthy then and even now, he bluntly refused but I don't blame him because God has brought you to help me." Eric's jaw drops, his granddad had told him a different story. "He told me you loved the village because of the type of work you do, not like he didn't help you. But why is he doing that?" He is shocked to the depth, he has always seen him as an honest person, had he begun acting cunny to some p
After six hours have been exhausted, he returns to get his work from the company. He is amazed when his video projector, already packaged, is handed over to him, they attach it with a remote, in case the person wants to place it on the wall and watch from there but in the case of placing it before, you can use the buttons on the sides of the video projector. "Wow, this is amazing!" He exclaims. "I love it!""You haven't even tested it," the sales manager teases. He urges him to open it and see what they have made for him inside there. He starts packaging them gently, reluctant to tear off the nice and expensive package. It had taken the person packaging it some time and energy, but it was meant to be torn apart. He wouldn't tear it apart here because it would be packaged again to deliver to Erica. "That's what I'm trying to do, I so much love this, my wish for my sick aunt is coming to reality." The manager attempts to become nice and concerned to him, so he asks what's wrong. "Wha
