We were kissing when someone entered.

 

“Oh my God,” my nanny said.

 

I disengage from d kiss and ran out of his room.

 

“Vivian,” he called after me but I didn’t bother listening to him.

 

I ran to my room.

 

“What have I done?” I said crying.

“Am sorry, I shouldn’t have entered,” Mrs Julius her nanny said.

 

“It is okay it is not ur fault,” I said.

 

“I shouldn’t have kissed her,” I said.

 

“It is Ok it happens between lovers,” she said while I scoffed.

 

“We aren’t lovers,” I said.

 

“Why? u both like each other,” she said.

 

“No, we don’t” I said.

 

“If u say so, I just want to u give this food,” she said referring to d food on d table.

 

“Ok,” I said and she left.

The next morning, I woke up and did my daily pushup routine afterwards I went outside to jog.

 

I rest for a while after my jogging exercise.

 

I was so lost in thoughts.

 

What if she hates me? I don’t know what I was thinking last night, I don’t know what came over me. The only things on my mind last night was kissing her.

 

I really need to see her.

 

I felt a hand on my shoulder without thinking twice I attacked d person.

 

Giving him an handbar.

 

“Stop stop,” Vincent said tapping me.

 

“U?” I said.

 

“Yes pls it hurts,” he cried

 

I released him with a frown.

 

“U shouldn’t have done dat,” I said.

 

“What? How is it my fault?” He complained.

 

“I should have done better after all he is trained to hurt people,” he murmured.

 

“I can hear dat,” I said.

 

“Like I care!” he yelled.

 

I must have hurt him.

 

“Am sorry,” I apologized.

 

“Dat is what u should have done in d first place,” he said.

 

“Anyway I came here to thank u for something,” he said.

 

“For what?” I asked.

 

“For protecting Vivian,” he said.

 

“She means a lot, I hope u continue to protect her if anything bad happened to her I don’t think I will be able to forgive myself”he said with sincerity.

 

“Am just doing my job,” I said.

 

“I know but am still grateful, I love her so much,” he said.

 

“U know what I don’t regret hurting u, what I regret is dat I didn’t hurt u to d extend dat u won’t be able to talk.” I said and start jogging.

 

“What? U are heartless.” he shouted behind me.

I was on my way to my room, when I saw vivian.

 

“Vivian,” I called and ran after her but she didn’t answer me.

 

I stopped running after her, maybe leaving her alone is d best thing for now. Vivian pov

“Where are u coming from?” My nanny asked as I entered my room.

 

She was arranging d room.

 

“Nowhere,” I said.

 

“Then why are u sweating?” She asked.

 

“U don’t need to know,” I said.

 

“Till when are u going to keep avoiding him?” She asked.

 

“Am not avoiding anyone,” I said lying.

 

“Yes u are,” she said.

 

“It is not like u don’t like him so why are u hurting him and urself,” she said.

 

“First I don’t like him, second even if I do like him then what changes?” I asked.

 

“In d next three months he will be gone, and also am getting married soon”.

 

“U know my dad will never allow me to be with another man if not Vin,” I said.

 

“There is no way, we’ll be together” I said.

 

“Don’t say dat, love conquers all,” she said.

 

“Maybe but not in my case and also I don’t know if he likes me too,” I said making excuses.

 

“Then ask him if he likes u or not,” she said.

 

 

“Then u know where u both stand,” she advised.

 

“I should ask him?” I asked.

 

“Yes and am sure he will say yes,” she said confident.

 

Ok, I said.

 

I will ask him, I said and left my room and head for Ryan’s room.

 

( in Ryan room )

 

I knocked on his door.

 

“Am coming” he said.

 

He opened d door and seem surprised to me.

 

“Vivian,” he said.

 

“Can I come in?” I asked.

 

Yes, he said and left d entrance for me to enter.

 

He closed d door as I entered.

 

We stay silent for a minutes but he interrupted by clearing his throat.

 

“Hmm, I came here to ask u a question.” I said..

 

“What?” He asked.

 

“Last night,” I said.

 

“What about it?” He asked.

 

‘How could he say dat?’ I thought a little bit angry.

 

“Do u like me?” I asked nervous expecting a yes.

 

“U want me to tell u d truth?” He asked.

 

“Yes,” I said playing with my fingers.

 

I do dat when am nervous.

 

“I don’t like u,” he said.
