He really wanted her to stay, and the thought of her leaving really pinched him in his heart. He had even offer to prepare breakfast this morning just to make her stay.
"Oh I'm sorry maybe next time, I really need to get home my guardian and son must be really worried about me. And I know my son, if he doesn't see me he might get sick." Jane said.
Jane words brought Felix back to reality.
"Your son, you have a son?" Felix asked ' she has a son? ' Felix asked himself in his head.
"Yes, I have a four year old boy. I will get going now bye." Jane said.
Seeing she's hell bent on leaving, he knows there's nothing he can do to stop her.
"Alright but please make sure to drop by next time." Felix finally said.
"I will try," Jane said, and with that she stepped out of the house.
Felix sank into the chair after she left ' she has a son ' he kept thinking in his head.
"Why didn't Gloria tell me that?" he muttered to himself. He had ensured he secured some information about Jane from his sister, before she left for work this morning.
He knows she is the same age as him, they are both twenty one. Well she will be turning twenty one according to his sister, she works in the same club as Gloria.
Then she lives downtown too but, she didn't tell him she had a son. Is she married?' the thought came to him but, he shunned it off.
"She doesn't look married at all, or maybe she lives with her boyfriend. He might be the father of the child, that's a possibility." he said again.
"I need to ask my sister as soon as she comes back." he said to himself, there was just something about this Jane girl that intrigued him. He had never felt this way before, her eyes, her lips. Everything about her was just intriguing, a smile curved up on his face.
"I like you Jane, and I'mgoing to get you."
Jane waited for a bus, close to ten minutes before getting one. On the ride back home, she just kept thinking about everything.
She really needs to get another job, she can't keep working at the club and risking her life like this. After what she had gone through in the past before, what if Gloria hadn't come to save her last night?
She wished more than ever now, that she had gone to school and bagged a degree. If only that monster had not raped her, with that thought a silent tear found its way to the corner of her eyes. Then she remembered Mrs Whitney's word that everything happens for a reason. This better results into a good one ' she thought.
Jane got home with no one in sight.
"Mrs Whitney haven't returned?" she asked herself.
"Christopher mummy is back," she called out, still no response. She called again like two more times still no response, she thought to check with Juliet if Chris was with them. She had tried calling Mrs Whitney twice, to confirm if she dropped him there.
Or if he was with her but, she wasn't picking up. She isn't the type that likes going to other people's house, even Zain had invited her over severally. She refused also, now she has no choice but to go over.
She really needs to know where her son is she really misses him a lot.
Jane walked over to Juliet's house, and knocked. After waiting for sometime that seems like two minutes, Juliet opened the door with her baby in her hands.
She just put to bed few months ago, and she's on leave so its understandable why she's always home.
"Hey Jane! Good morning, come in. It's a suprise to see you here this morning, I hardly see you around. If not for Chris, I wouldn't know you still live here." Juliet said looking surprised.
"Good morning Juliet, it's just work. I came to ask if Chris is here." Jane replied.
"You should at least come inside, and take a seat." Juliet interjected.
"Okay," Jane said and walked inside reluctantly.
"Have a seat," Juliet said pointing to the couch.
"Thanks" Jane said and sat down.
"So is Chris here?" she asked again, she was already getting impatient.
"Yes, he's inside Zain's room with John. Mrs Whitney dropped him here this morning, they've been busy playing video games for hours now." Juliet said.
"Can you please get him for me?" Jane asked.
"Oh sure, just a second." Juliet said, and was about to move towards Zain's room. The baby in her arms began to cry.
"She seems to be hungry, or maybe she has wet her diaper" Juliet said pretending to be sad.
"I guess you will have to get Chris yourself I need to take of her" Juliet added.
"By myself? " Jane asked sounding shocked.
"Of course his room is the second one by the left, see you later Jane bye." Juliet said.
"Bye"Jane managed to say, ' well not all boys bite ' she thought to herself, she stood up from the couch and headed towards the direction Juliet gave her.
It wasn't so hard to find after all, she knocked and waited but no one answered the door. She knocked two more times still no answer.
It must be the sound from the video games there are playing ' Jane thought to herself. She quietly twisted the door knob and sneaked in quietly, not like she has a choice after all.
She has never been to a man's room before, well except for Dante who had turned his office into a bedroom she had caught him on several occasions making out with girls and doing disgusting things.
She felt instantly irritated just by the thought of it, she wonders why they never lock the door. Nobody in the room noticed her presence for a while until Christopher shouted.
