“But am sorry I just want us to pick our broken lives and start all over “ Fred said sitting down
“ am sorry too it’s just that am hurt “ Cassy said weakly sitting beside Fred .
“ I love you just spend a night with me “ Fred said facing Cassy
“ my heart is too fragile I don’t want to get hurt again “ Cassy said scared at the thought of Fred leaving her after she feel relaxed with him .
“ I know . I messed up before but I promise to make it up to you “ Fred said hugging Cassy .
“ are you sure “ Cassy asked staring deep into Fred’s eyes
“ yeah “ Fred answered kissing her forehead.
“ it’s getting late and we haven’t celebrate can we go over to my place ? “ Fred asked choosing his words carefully he wanted Cassy to visit where he lives but he didn’t know how to say it for her not to misunderstand him
“ it’s fine if you don’t want to go I will drop you off then pick you up tomorrow for the celebration “ Fred quickly added after a moment of silence from Cassy
“ no it’s fine let’s go to your place “ Cassy said standing to her feet .
“ thank you “ Fred said standing.
Fred and Cassy walked hand in hands out of the building to the underground parking lot where Fred’s car was parked . They both got into the car , then , the car zoomed off .
The car soon drove into a rough road
where trees was the only thing one could see .
“ the road looks quiet don’t people pass through it ?” Cassy asked curiously when she didn’t see anyone walk pass .
“ I bought the full land “ Fred answered concentrating on the steering
“ what ? Was it so cheap that you bought everywhere “ Cassy asked not believing what Fred just said
“Well it wasn’t my fault my dad forced me to so I had no choice than succumb to his command “ Fred said driving into a mighty gate
A scream escaped Cassy’s lip when Fred drove close to the gate yet didn’t stop to open neither horn for someone to open she almost thought Fred was getting them killed by driving towards a gate with full speed . But something that shocked Cassy happened.the gate opened on its own then closed after the car drove pass .
“ are you alright “ Fred asked seeing the sweats on Cassy’s face
“ why ?” Cassy asked rubbing her palms together
“ those sweats is quit much “ Fred answered stepping on the break
“ I thought I was going to die a moment ago when you drove towards that gate with speed but then I remembered that your place back home doesn’t also need someone to open it “ Cassy answered looking outside
“ oh sorry about that” Fred apologize curving his lips into a smile .
Fred finally stopped the car then quickly came down rushing to the other side of the car that Cassy was .he offered Cassy his hands which Cassy took them helped her down.
“ welcome young master good day ma” an old man probably in his early 60’s or late 50’s greeted
“ thank you Daniel “ Fred said handling the car key to him
“ good evening sir “ Cassy greeted looking around
“ my friend is greeting you “ Fred said when Daniel didn’t answer
Daniel didn’t believe what he heard so he decided not to answer but when Fred said his friend was greeting, that was when he knew that what he heard was actually right . This young miss just greeted him unlike the last time with the arrogant young miss Chloe
“ good evening ma welcome ma “ Daniel said opening the car door
“ am Cassy “ Cassy scream Loud so Daniel could hear her as she was far from him
“ don’t blame him I guess he think you are like someone “ Fred said as they both walk inside the building
“ someone ? “ Cassy asked siting on a new couch in the sitting room
“ trust me you don’t want to know her “ Fred said entering a room
“ her ? Who is she” Cassy asked but didn’t get a reply. So she looked around and couldn’t see Fred but just then fred came out of a room
“ where did you go ?” Cassy asked standing to her feet
“ to the kitchen I went to give the cook an order “ Fred said holding her hands
“ oh that was the kitchen “ Cassy murmured silently climbing the stairs with Fred
“ we will just freshen up then come down to eat and also celebrate “ Fred said but unknowingly got Cassy scared with the thoughts of having a shower in this building with Fred
“ are you alright “ Fred asked with concern when Cassy slowly remove her hand from his
“ yeah am fine “ Cassy said walking away
Even though she didn’t know where the rooms were located, nor had a slight idea of where Fred was leading her to
“ wait “ Fred called running towards Cassy who was already far down the hallway
“ where are you going “ Fred asked when he caught up with Cassy
“ anywhere “ Cassy said feigning angry
“ come in “ Fred said pushing open a door
“ the bathroom is over-there I will get something that you can change into when you are done “ Fred said then left
“ he didn’t want to be faster than time he needed to slow things down or he will end up hurting Cassy and eventually himself.
Taking a deep breath, Cassy walked into the bathroom. She slowly removed her cloths then turned on the shower .
After having her bath with the soap and sponge she found in the bathroom, she took the towel she found in the bathroom then wrapped it on her body . Coming out she saw a folded cloths on the bed
“ how will I look inside his night wear ?” Cassy asked smiling . Curious to know, she quickly wore the night shirt and trouser . Though Fred gave Cassy one of his shortest night wear yet it was still bigger on her when she wore it .
Not knowing any other rooms Cassy opened the door and opened another door opposite.
Not finding anyone there she sat on the bed , were she fell asleep on the bed .
“ holy shit “ fred cursed silently when he came out of the bathroom to find Cassy sleeping soundly on his bed
Noticing that she was truly sleeping, fred silently wore his cloths then went down to the kitchen
“ young master I prepared chicken tetrazzini
The pasta is in the bowl over there “ mrs Betty an advance woman in a cook uniform said pointing at a bowl at the table in the kitchen
“ The cream sauce is ready I just have to add mushrooms , the chicken and allow it to boil together then get it ready for baking “mrs Betty said turning the cream sauce .
“ alright I will be at the sitting room “Fred said walking towards the fridge
“ No problem sir I will call you after setting the dinning “ mrs Betty said taking out already cooked chicken from a pot
“ we will be having the meal in my room “ Fred said taking out a red apple from the fridge
“We “ mrs Betty asked knowing that the young master live alone
“ yes we .I have a guest and she is very hungry so be fast “ Fred said taking a bite from the apple before walking out
“ she ? oh my goodness it’s young miss Chloe I have to get the cheese . miss Chloe love her chicken tetrazzini top with cheese and any mistake she is going to knock some hot sense into me “ mrs Betty said in panic putting everything in order
“ young master seems happy or have he finally accepted her from his heart “ mrs betty asked silently
“ well that’s not my business let me get the meal down before she serves my butt hot tea “ she added turning off the cooker .
“Thank you drop it on the table “ Fred whispered to miss Betty .
Mrs Betty offered to help Fred take the meal into his room she was afraid of what miss Chloe will do to her this time around yet she wanted to satisfy her curiosity if it was because of miss Chloe that Fred looked happy.
But on getting inside she saw Cassandra Justine the model though she wasn’t famous but she has seen her in a few interviews on tv .
“ am her fan “ mrs Betty said excitedly
“ well you may leave as you can see she is asleep”
Fred said standing at the door which he opened
Fred shut the door immediately mrs Betty left .
“ sleepy miss it’s time for dinner “ Fred said softly close to Cassy’s ear .
