Donald was still unable to process what was going on. The scene was quite scary for him. He was the chief executive officer of a bank, but he would never get to buy a whole shop. How did a simple commoner like him get to gather lots of money? That’s the question that was running through his mind.
“Are you sure he bought everything? You should check very kindly. Don’t allow this thing here dupe you.” Donald insisted.“Yes, Sir. I already checked everything. His card wired the 9000 dollars to our account.” The lady paused before continuing, “I’m sorry but I also included your luggage in the bills, since you had not yet paid for the stuff.” The sales lady struggled to speak.“Oh, that… don’t bother, let them have the things. I was only trying to prove a point to these people.” Pharrell said, his lips swelling up in smiles.Right behind Donald was Alessia who cupped her hands on her mouth. It was amazing to see him pay for quite an expensive shop.“You know, I thought you were just jocking when you asked to pay for everything in this shop. I am so happy for you, Pharrell.” In a twinkle of an eye, Alessia had embraced Pharrell.“You have rendered me speechless by buying everything in this shop. It’s so good to see you fend for yourself.” She added.[Host Pharrell, Alessia’s infatuation has increased by 40%]Pharrell was shocked from Alessia’s hold on him. Her reaction was the last thing he was expecting, given that she didn’t want anything to do with him.“I don’t see in what way my actions warrant you to embrace me. I’m not the type to feign for feelings.” He made his intentions known.[Host Pharrell, Alessia’s infatuation has increased by 30%]“I must say you’ve surprised me, young man. Where did you get the money to buy everything? Looking at you, you aren’t fit to get this type of place.” Donald mentioned, coming closer to him.“Yeah, that’s true. You should tell us how you managed to have the money. I remember you not having a penny back in those days.” Alessia chirped in.He tucked his hands in his pocket and started smiling at them. They were expecting him to say something, but he wasn’t going to utter a word.“I am not in the mood to speak. The goal was to prove a point, which I just did. Now, you’ll have to excuse me.” He explained.With his last set words, the hall became silent. It was silent until a woman made her entry, approaching them.“What is going on here, Donald? I was at your office for the past two hours and they told me you left with another woman.”“What are you doing here with her? Isn’t she the bank’s receptionist?” The lady asked pointedly.“Listen, that’s not what you think…” Donald started expressing himself but he soon received a slap on his delicate jaw.He held the hitted area and widened his eyes at the lady’s abrupt reaction. At the same time, Alessia turned and faced him, embarrassed by what was going on.“Why would you allow this woman here to slap you? Alessia said in pain, “Is she your mother?” She continued with her question.“You must be stupid for asking such a question. Do I look like his mother?” The lady approached Alessia while yelling. She was surely going to give her own share of the cake. Alessia was wise enough to take some distance.“Donald, can you say something? Why would this lady stomp here and start asking weird questions? She even slapped you but you don’t seem to be acting. Who is she?” Alessia gathered her courage and asked.“If he is shy to tell you then I’m gonna do it by myself. Donald, here is my boyfriend. Tonight we were celebrating five years of being together.”“I asked him not to come home late tonight as I made a special dinner. For the past hours I waited for him but he didn’t come. I even tried calling his line, yet, he wouldn’t pick up my call.”“I was stressed and at the same time worried. I was even afraid that something bad happened to him on the way. I left all that I arranged and rushed over to his office. Where I was told he left for shopping.”“I was happy. I thought he might have gone shopping for me. I thought he wanted to get me a beautiful dress to celebrate our five years of relationship. It’s only when I got to the door and hid myself behind that I heard him arguing for your sake. I then knew that he was cheating on me with you, slut.” The lady explained bitterly.Alessia was hurt by the lady’s words. In fact, those words had echoed down her system. For once in her life, she felt like disappearing into thin dust. “Madam, I won’t permit you to call me names. I’m not a slut and will never be one.” In anger, Alessia addressed the lady.“Oh wow…” the lady started clapping her hands and smirking. “If you aren’t a slut then why the hell would you go out with a man who has already made it in life? Did you help him work out the money? The money you want him to spend on you.” With a grin on her face, the lady uttered.Her questions were irritating, making her give her attention toward Donald. “What is this lady talking about? I thought you were trying to avoid your mother’s call. Why then is she trying to say you didn’t pick her calls?” Alessia furiously questioned her so-called boyfriend.“Oh, he even told you that he was avoiding his mom’s calls. Donald, so you now tell the world that I am your mother?”“Isn’t it obvious that you look like one?” Alessia said, rolling her eyes at her. “I mean, take a look at yourself through the mirror. You don’t deserve to be in his life as a girlfriend.In the meantime, Pharrell leaned at the back of the counter, focusing on all that the trio were talking on. What he found funny was the fact that Donald stood there saying nothing. It was just like the Donald he met a while ago was different from the one standing before him.“And you Donald, why aren’t you saying anything. Can’t you speak up, or are you not going to defend yourself from those lies?” Alessia asked but the lady started laughing loudly.“What are you expecting him to say, huh slut? Do you think he is much of a difference like you? I built him. He is somebody because I made him. Now he is squandering my money around.” The lady exclaimed, causing Alessia to face Donald again.“I don’t want to believe that all this time I have been dating a kid.” Alessia halted, waiting for a response, but none came. The filthy CEO still had his head lowered.“I think you are mentally deranged. Because anyone in his or her right sense would understand why he can’t even raise his head, talkless of uttering a word from his throat. What were you expecting him to say? To support a lady like you?”“Hey, old lady, have told you times without number that you shouldn’t talk to me using that tone. Is it my fault that he dumped you at home and was relaxing with me?” Alexander yelled, causing the nearby neighbors to start peeping.It’s at this crucial moment that Donald raised his head. “Alessia stop that. You shouldn’t use thar tone on her. Do you know she’s an important personality?” Donald uttered bitterly.Alessia cupped her hands on her mouth in shock. Wait, did his respond just mean he was confirming what the lady said? Was he actually a product of the lady.“Darling please forgive me, I promise that this nonsense is never going to repeat itself. Give me another chance, I beg you.” Donald started begging the lady. This again rendered Alessia vulnerable.“You are an idiot. What were you first doing with this slut to the point of shopping for her, whereas you know I had made dinner for us?”“I don’t only blame you, I also blame her for trying to reap where she did not saw.”The lady commented.“I’m sorry my love, give me another chance and I promise that I will never repeat this rubbish.” Donald kept insisting.“Humm…” The lady threw a slang. “I don’t know if what you did there's forgiveness for it. But there is something you can do, that’s only if you want to be forgiven.”“Yes my love, anything and I promise to do it. I don’t mind doing anything if that is going to warrant me to be forgiven.” Donald reached to her legs and continued pleading.She lowered her head and watched Donald’s hands clutched to her legs. She was like the hero and him the slave. “You’ll have to slap this lady here. For calling me a mother, she deserves a punishment. And you’ll be the one to that on my behalf. That’s only if you want to be forgiven.”“Mind you, if you fail to do so then I’m gonna stop with this whole show. It will be the end of this relationship.” The lady stated.Alessia was in the middle of all this, hearing them two explain themselves. It was quite unfortunate for her that she received a slap coming from Donald. She had never expected that something of that nature was going to take place. This huge slap made her lay on the table beside her.“You are such a shameless woman. Next time you won’t try to steal my boyfriend. If I see you anywhere around him, then you are gonna get it hotter from me.” She said, clearly declaring how she felt about the whole thing.“And you, what are you looking at? Do you want a picture of the whole show?” The lady turned and questioned Pharrell who seemed to be very interested with all that he was seeing.He simply smiled and faced a different direction. No one needed to remind him that she was tempered.“Aren’t you going to answer?” She halted, “Are you the lady’s brother? Because girls like this silly thing here turn to invite their whole families out when such an opportunity is presented.”“Looking at you, I can tell you are hiding behind her shadow.” She disdainfully said.It at this point that Pharrell could no longer take it. He wasn’t going to watch a woman he knew nothing about ruin him to ashes.“Woman, I don’t permit you to talk to me. I’m not part of them, so I won’t watch you use that tone on me.” Pharrell said pointedly.“To begin with, I’m called Nathalia.” She said before whirling around, “I won’t also advice you to call me a mother. Because I don’t look like the person who birth you.” She exclaimed bitterly.“Alright Nathalia, would you please allow me out of your issues, because I ain’t part of them. I’m no one’s brother. I only came here to have a good time.” Pharrell insisted.Nathalia felt hurt for talking to him making use of that tone. It didn’t cross her mind that Pharrell was on his own. Seeing him focusing on them, she lose patient and started yelling at him as if he was part of the show.“I’m sorry that I had to mix you with everything that was going on. Can you please put this at the back of your mind?” She assembled her hands together before demandingWith no response coming from Pharrell, she parted her lips and started talking again. “Okay, I do understan
Throughout the argument between Alessia, Donald and Pharrell, Mia took her leave. She knew it was going to be a difficult moment for her, should Alessia find out she was still there.Though she left the shop without telling anyone, she called another friend of hers and asked them to meet up in a restaurant, where they wined and dined. She was making sure that what she did wasn’t going to affect Alessia. After a round of talks, she finally left for her apartment.On reaching, Alessia was in the room and blow-drying her hair. Mia entered, removed her shoes. Still, she was unable to face her friend.“I searched for you but you weren’t around. What happened?” Alessia turned off the hair machine and asked.“I-I… I left with some friends.” Mia started stuttering, but did everything to arrange that.“And you, are you okay?” She faced her.“Sure, I’ll be fine.” Alessia replied coldly. Her voice was low and void of emotion.“Huh? You are always fine, is there a problem?” Mia insisted.“Well, t
“These plastics are just so heavy for me.” Pharrell whispered to himself, as he struggled to carry the plastics, “Is that how rich people suffer when they go shopping?” He struggled till he arrived in his room. He had seen his landlord and so settled his debt. He took a cold bath and tried some of the clothes he bought including the ones Nathalia got for him.“Wow, this one looks nice.” He said, as he glared at himself through the mirror.“They all look nice. I don’t know if I want to keep doing this. This is just the perfect lifestyle for me.” “I just wish the system is gonna keep sending me $10,000 every morning. If that’s the case, then I’m ready to reach the top.” He said,He checked his bank account and noticed there was still some money left with him. Quickly, an idea of what he could do with that popped in.“Let’s go to the spa. I have to discover what the feeling looks like.” He had never had the opportunity to be at a spa because it cost so much. He was just a delivery guy
“Hey handsome , I got this glass of wine for you. I’m sure it will go a long way to quench your taste.” The lady vividly smiled as she passed the glass to him.He smiled., but then managed to take it anyway. He was surprised because he found himself in a big spa. And from what he could retain was that the workers were supposed to be professional when dealing with their clients. Calling a stranger who just came in for services shouldn’t be called using those names.“Thank you.” He said. He took the glass and dropped it on the next table by his side.“When you get done with your drink, let me know so I can take care of you in the proper way.” She said, trying to seduce him.Pharrell’s face darkened as he was trying to understand what was going on. What did she mean by the words she just said? Is that how they communicated with their customers? His subconscious kept pondering.“I think I want someone else to do the services for me.” He said politely. Her brows furrowed when she heard him
“I think it was Tammy who triggered that. If he didn’t put his mouth into what doesn’t concern him then maybe the lady would have pardoned me. Now look at what he created.” Pharrell tapped his legs on the bamboo floor before disdainfully explaining himself.He didn’t like the fact that he was thrown out like a commoner just because of a slight mistake he made. How was he supposed to know that the other dude wasn’t referring to money? He pondered.“Since I was kicked out of the call, I think I should go to bed now.” He slowly woke up from his desk and started approaching his bed. He forcefully climbed on it and covered himself with the duvet. In the space of some minutes, he abruptly woke up when all he could see was the lady’s image.“I have to try another chance. I hope this time around, she would have put that at the back of her mind.” He mumbled as he took his phone, and joined back again.Everything was going on smoothly and they were even playing a game when he arrived. She had t
“Now?” Pharrell was amazed, “I mean, it’s late and I think you would love to have a nap now.” Pharrell pretentiously said. He was dying to have a conversation with her, but then something prompted him to play a smart game.“Hahaha…” she started laughing, then got back to her normal state. “You are right, this is the time I usually go to bed, but at least, it’s good for me to know how your voice sounds. So, should I give you a call?” Tana volunteered for the second time and he accepted.After his message was sent, she didn’t waste any further minutes to give him a call. He also replied as soon as an incoming call entered. The duo had a ten minute conversation, during which they both talked about their lives and the cities in which they live.Surprisingly, Tana and Pharell both shared the same city. They even attended the same university and were almost in the same camp.“Wow, instead of after tomorrow, I suggest we should meet tomorrow at the canteen. We can have breakfast together, an
“Do you know him?” Alessia tapped Tana by the shoulder and whispered in her ear. Tana was going to respond when Nelson cleared his throat. This action of his caused the two girls to face him.“Is there any problem, Nelson?” Alessia asked curiously.“The young man dressed in denim jeans,” Nelson turned and looked at him again, just to be sure of the person he wanted to talk about. “Isn’t that the guy you were dating?” Though his expensive clothes made him doubt, he was sure he had seen Alessia before with the dude. “Humm…” She opened her mouth but was unable to express herself. She didn’t want Nelson to be aware that she was dating Pharrell. What if he mocked her now that she was no longer with him“Nope, I have never been with him.” She pretentiously said and looked in another direction.“Do you know him,” Alessia asked Tana who woke up from her seat and was approaching Pharrell.“I will talk to you later,” Those were the words she uttered before joining Pharrell.“You are Pharrell,
The day swiftly passed. Pharrell’s breakfast went pretty good, though Tammy had tried to ruin it. After a handshake between him and Tana, he called it a day.“I will see you soon,” Tana waved as she smiled at him. He smiled back then raised his hand, “I’m glad I finally had the opportunity to meet you. Hope this happens next time.” Pharrell uttered, then turned his back and started walking out of the canteen.For over five f*cking hours he was seated with Tana, he didn’t blink his eyes to check whether Alessia was gazing at him or what was happening to her. His face was directly plopped on Tana and that was all.“See you.” He said for the last time.***Ding!A heavy knock came from Pharrell’s door. It was so hard that he gasped from his seat. “Who could be that?” The first words he let out while reaching his door.“Hey, any reason for knocking harshly on my door?” Pharrell asked when he was faced in front of Tammy.He was dying to hold him by the neck and to squeeze the hell out of
