Chapter 55
"Why did you make me intense before something like this happened... I don't like this but I love this...Awww" She smiled, taking the teddy bear from the stranger while Dean continued to laugh harder.
"I love this... c'mon... this could be expensive... why did you have to buy something like this for me! What's the big occasion... I'll love to accompany you over there..." She was smiling with her gap teeth as she continued to hold the teddy tighter while I was staring at her with joy-filled in me.
"I know...Hmm... I know I've messed up... what I meant was that... I'm very sorry for everything that I've done for you...You know I love you but since after the incident at the hospital, I can't forgive myself for being rude to you...I'm deeply sorry and I don't see any way to show you how sorry I'm until I thought of these ideas... am I forgiven" I pleaded with her while she was holding the teddy bear so tightly without letting go.
"What? So because you insulted me... insulted my family background... Do you still have the gut to try and apologize to me? What's the meaning of all this... do you think you can buy me a teddy... I don't value this" She provoked using the teddy bear to hit me and walked out of the car in anger.
"Damn... Girls are so fond of a problem... just a minute...it was as if she was on top of the world, feeling the vibes but I tried to be nice to her now and she's yelling at me... I don't even know what kind of girl I have... it just looks as if she's being remote at times" I grumbled to myself while placing the teddy on the chair and walked out of my vehicle silently and headed straight to her.
"I know I've upset you but I'm trying to make peace with that... I don't like seeing you angry... I've made the mistake of insulting you and if I could turn back time, I'll. to make sure I didn't repeat such a mistake... I'm sorry...my..." I tried to touch her while using my sweet romantic voice to beg but walked away... it just looks as if, the more I begged her, the angrier she became.
"Jenni! I know you are very much upset with me but why don't you tell me other mistakes I have made...I promised to acknowledge it... I'm deeply sorry! bringing you here was the only idea that came to me since you haven't given me much attention at home... I don't know how to say this... I deeply love you and I will regret it when you leave my side... forget every bad thing I've said... I'm a changed man now" As I continued to play romantic, she stirred at me and I got tempted to have a taste of her lip again.
We continue to stare at each other without saying a word... And... all my interest was in her lip as I tried to draw my lip closer to her... I felt shy trying to but she insisted by drawing her lips closer to me... As both of our lips were approaching each other, I began to feel joy in my heart... I haven't felt this kind of feeling before until I got a call that accidentally ruined my romantic moment with the love of my life.
"Yeah...This is Dean" I spoke rudely to the unknown person who called me.
"Nice to finally hear your voice... I'm calling in respect of the loan your company signed for...I came by your office earlier but I wasn't able to see you in person so have your secretary told you anything regarding that sir!"The unknown number was so nice on the phone even though I'm screwed for ruining this moment... Nothing seems funny to me but he talks like someone who is smiling.
"What's wrong with you? What do you take my secretary for? Do you think she won't give me the warrant you drop... let me tell you something... next time don't underrate my workers because of the little money I'm holding you guys...I don't like this... you give us one week to gather the money but you are calling me on the first day? Are you stupid?" I yelled at him in anger... everything around me felt boiled up to me as Jennifer was staring at me but I don't know what was in her mind.
"I'm sorry sir! Please pardon my company, sir... It's no longer one week sir but three days sir? Please pardon us... the sudden change is due to long-term business and we have tried our best to do what we can... I'm sorry sir but I'm afraid if you can't afford the money within three days, you'll lose something great in return" He's still talking nice to me while I look around to find what to pour the anger into but nothing was nearby.
"Are you mad? Three days? When did all this start... so you just called me today to tell me that I have only three days for the payment... meaning, only two days left... Are you stupid... Do you think I'm such a fool that you can play with... " Dean yelled at him in anger and wanting to end the call but he got interrupted.
"Sir! I'm sorry sir... but if you are in the office, I'm heading toward that direction... so... I was thinking maybe we can talk and explain further than the shout over the cell phone" Despite all the shouting, he was still calm to me and I hate him for that.
"I'm not around... bye" I ended the call in anger while staring at Jennifer but doesn't feel anything anymore as I walk into my vehicle with anger...
"Jenni...Are you not coming in?" She saw it clearly that I'd entered my vehicle but she was still pretending to be mad at me and currently, I'm no longer in the state of apologies.
"What's wrong with you" Jennifer yelled back at him and entered the vehicles... The look Dean gave to her was unbearable but he controlled himself not to voice anything out.
While Dean was driving, he thought of having the entire day with Jennifer but his day was already ruined so he drove her home but Dean didn't follow her inside...
"Please! I'd like to drop you here, there is somewhere I need to be urgently... I'm sorry" He pleaded calmly while staring at her to get down. She knew perfectly well that Dean was angry so she didn't say anything but got out of the vehicle slowly with the teddy bear in her hands... Dean didn't wait for her to leave her sight, he drove immediately.
About 30 minutes later.
"Sup" Dean walks into the station with boldness as he called one of the sergeants to call Jeffrey immediately and they did because of how prominent he's.
"Wow! I'm scared... because I remember clearly that your mum came here the other day so now it's you... what do you want now" Jeffrey asked the moment he saw Dean while he was about to take his seat
"I'm not here for the story...I'm in trouble and I don't know what to do anymore but to seek your help" Dean became calm while in the cell, making Jeffrey more anxious about what's going on.
"I don't get it... you came here to seek help from a prisoner... the same prisoner who you put in here... how is that possible... even if it's possible for me to help... do you think I'll help you after everything you have done to me" Jeffrey provokes but Dean remains calm because of what he needed.
"Be serious... I'm not here for a joke... and by the way... why did you insult my mum! Is something wrong with you? Next time don't do that because if you do... I swear to myself, I'll hunt you down and kill you" He was still acting calmly while pretending everything was fine.
"Insult your mum? Where is that message coming from! Oh... Your mum told you I insulted her... wow! Anyway... I don't have much strength to be mad at anyone right now because of my mental state... The truth is your mum came here and offered to bail me out but I refused... Yes... I refused... the same family who put me in here wants to bail me out... it's strange so I reject her offer" I complained while folding my hands together looking like a boss in the prison.
"Serious... What... the fuck...What she told me was extremely different... anyway... I'm not here for that... I need your help" He acted with shock but right now, he's more concerned with what he needs.
" I won't lie to you... anyway, don't tell her anything just do your finding and what's the help you need from me" Jeffrey questions staring at him just as he does when both of them work together.
"The balance of the kidnapped case... I need it" Dean's voice became low. He's so shy of saying something like this and bowls his head while murmuring.
"What" Jeffrey yelled pretended not to understand what he said earlier.
