Shawn was busy in his office, his eyes fixed on the documents in front of him, when his PA entered with some files. “Here is the file you requested for,” he said, placing it on the table in front of Shawn.
Shawn’s face was calm as he asked, “What time is my next meeting?”
His PA replied, “By 2 pm, sir.”
Shawn nodded, his eyes still fixed on the documents. “Okay, you can go,” he said, and the PA left.
Not too long after, someone knocked on the door, and Shawn asked the person to enter without looking up to see who it was. “Hey, Shawn,” Rachel called, and Shawn raised his face up to her, his eyes widening in surprise.
His brow furrowed in concern. “What are you doing here?” he asked, his voice cautious.
“Please, just listen to me, I mean no harm,” she said, her eyes locked on Shawn’s.
“Then why are you here?” he asked, his eyes narrowing.
Rachel’s face was hopeful. “Can I at least sit?” she asked, and Shawn stared at her, his expression unreadable.
Meanwhile, Sofia and Mabel were chatting in the class after the lecture was over. Mabel’s face was teasing.
“Your mood since yesterday is so overwhelming, tell me, is he back?” she asked, her eyes sparkling with amusement.
“What are you talking about?” she asked, her voice casual. Her eyes avoiding Mabel’s gaze.
Mabel’s smile was knowing. “I am talking about Shawn, is he back from his trip? I know that’s the reason for your happy mood,” she said, her eyes locked on Sofia’s.
Her face was calm, her voice firm. “Yes, he is back, but that’s not the reason why I’m happy,” she said, still avoiding Mabel’s gaze.
“Hmmm, so are you two together now?” she asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. Sofia’s face was expressionless, her eyes fixed on a spot, ignoring Mabel’s question. “Answer me, Sofia!” She exclaimed, her voice rising in excitement.
Sofia’s face turned bright red as she sputtered nervously. “We are not fully together.”
“So, you guys are already seeing each other?” she asked, her brow raised.
Her face was sheepish. “Maybe,” she replied, her voice barely above a whisper.
“Aww! That’s so cute! I am rooting for the two of you, you two look perfect together,” she said, her eyes shining with enthusiasm. Sofia’s face broke into a smile, her eyes sparkling with happiness.
Back to Rachel and Shawn, Rachel’s face fell as she sat down, her eyes fixed on Shawn’s. Shawn’s expression was calm, his eyes gentle.
“I have no hatred towards you, you are forgiven, but that doesn’t mean we can still be seeing each other,” he said, his voice firm but gentle.
“Why? I thought you had forgiven me,” she asked, her voice trembling. her eyes welling up in tears.
“Yes, I have, but we can’t be together anymore,” he said, his voice firm.
“Please Shawn, don’t do this to me, I know I did a terrible thing, just give me another space in your life and I will make things right this time,” she pleaded, her voice cracking.
“It’s too late, Rachel…we were never compatible, I only agreed to be with you because of the favor your dad did for me years back…I promise to pay him in another way, but not this way, I’m sorry,” he said, his voice firm but gentle.
Rachel’s face crumpled, her body shaking with sobs. “I love you Shawn, what do you want me to do now?” she sniffled.
Some hours later, after school hours, Sofia and Mabel were coming out of the school building when they caught sight of Shawn standing next to his car, looking attractive while on the phone with someone. A lot of ladies passing by were drooling over him.
Mabel’s eyes widened in admiration. “Woah! He looks so cute! You are damn lucky girl, look at the way everyone is drooling over him,” she said, her voice filled with excitement.
“Why is he here?” she asked, her voice casual. her eyes fixed on Shawn.
Mabel’s face was teasing. “What kind of silly question is that? To take you home, of course…or to take you somewhere romantic,” she said, her eyes sparkling with amusement.
As they saw him walking towards them, everyone’s eyes widened in curiosity, wondering where he was going. Mabel’s face lit up with excitement.
“Oh my, he is coming to you,” she said, her eyes sparkling with amusement.
He walked up to them, his face calm and collected. “Are you done for today?” he asked, his eyes fixed on Sofia.
Mabel’s face broke into a smile. “Hi, Shawn,” she said, her voice cheerful.
He smiled back at her. “How are you?” he asked, his eyes crinkling at the corners.
Mabel’s face was radiant. “I’m fine,” she said, before turning to Sofia, who was looking shy, avoiding the students’ gaze. She leaned in to whisper in Sofia’s ear. “Alright Sofia, see you on Monday… don’t forget to make this weekend with him memorable,” she said, her eyes sparkling with mischief, before smirking and walking away.
He turned to Sofia, his face gentle. “Shall we?” he asked, stretching out his hand.
Sofia’s face was hesitant, but she eventually took his hand, and they walked away, with students admiring them. As they got to the car, he ordered the driver to go, and they drove off. Sofia’s face was curious.
“Why are you in my school?” she asked, facing him.
He smiled, his eyes glinting with amusement. “Because I am having dinner with you,” he said, his voice low and husky.
Some minutes later, they arrived at a fancy restaurant. Sofia’s eyes widened in amazement as she stepped out of the car and held his arm, walking inside. Their reservation table was already set in the VIP section. Few people in the restaurant drooled over them as they walked to their table, and a waiter was already there to attend to them. As they made their order, Sofia’s face was impressed.
“Wow, this place is amazing,” she said, her eyes sparkling with wonder.
He smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. “You like it?” he asked, his voice gentle.
Her face broke into a smile. “Yes, this place is cool,” she said, her eyes shining with excitement.
Just then, a waiter came with their order. “I am so sorry for the delay,” the waiter said, and Sofia caught the familiar voice as she raised her face to the waiter.
Her eyes widened in surprise. “Mom?” she called, shocked, and Diana’s eyes met hers, her face equally shocked.
Later, they arrived home, and Sofia stepped inside, her face still reflecting the shock and surprise she had encountered at the restaurant. Her eyes were distant, and her brow was furrowed in concern.
He watched her, his face filled with concern. “Are you okay?” he asked, his voice gentle.
Sofia’s face forced a smile, her eyes avoiding his. “Yes, I am tired, let me freshen up,” she said, her voice strained.
She walked away, leaving him staring after her, his eyes filled with worry. His face was calm, but his eyes betrayed his concern for her. He stood there for a moment, watching her disappear into the depths of the house.
Shawn sighed and turned to go to his room, his face reflecting his concern for Sofia. As he walked, his cellphone rang, breaking the silence. He stopped and pulled out his phone, his eyes scanning the screen to find a strange number.
His brow furrowed in curiosity, he picked up the call. “Hello?” he said, his voice cautious, as he waited for the other person to speak.
There was a pause, and then a familiar voice boomed from the other end of the phone. “Hello, brother!” the voice said, and Shawn’s eyes widened in surprise as he recognized the voice.
His face lit up with a mixture of emotions – surprise, curiosity, and a hint of wariness. He stood still, his eyes fixed on a spot, as he waited to hear more from the person on the other end of the call.
