Arabella's pov
I walked into dad's room to see him still on bed, I went to peck his cheek and that woke him up,,,,
" Dad "I smiled at him
" Are you ready? "he asked sitting upright
" Yes Dad, I am "I replied. He stood up and took his cheque book from the drawer,,, He took his pen and wrote some things on it before handing it to me
" No dad, I can't take this cheque from you. I have enough already,,, you already gave me all you own! "I said
He chuckled.
" But that's not enough, you're my daughter remember? "He said
" Okay dad "I shrugged and collected it from him.
" What of your mom? "He asked as he slipped his leg into his sandal
" She's at the dinning,,, I better start going. See you later Dad! "I said hurrying to the door
" Alright dear,,, don't forget what we discussed yesterday "he shouted from inside and I scoffed as I finally walked out.
There's nothing else he wants except for me to bring home a guy,,, he don't even wanna know if I love him or not.
I'm Arabella Gomez, A daughter of a rich billionaire. My parents want just one thing from me, to bring home a guy. I just don't know how to please them,,,, maybe it's high time I work on it.
I got outside and the driver came to me immediately he sighted me coming out,
" Ma'am "He bowed at my front
" Hi Gael,,, am going alone today "I said moving towards my car
" Alright ma'am, bye! "he smiled as I entered the car, The gate was opened and I drove out
Henry's pov
" Come on Henry!! "Micah shouted as I carried the volleyball and then throw it into the high net
" I did it! "I screamed and they all ran to hug me,,, this are my three friends. Their names are; Micah, Matteo and Ezra. We are here to have fun like always.
" Let's get going "I said now facing them
" Okay but you have to play one more time,,, right guys? "Matteo said facing the two of them
" Yes! "they agreed with him
" If that's what you want,,, Matteo get me the volleyball "i ordered and that made him glare at me and the others laughed
" Go ahead! "I said when I saw he isn't making any attempt to go,,, he finally left and handed it to me with a smirk on his face
" Thanks "I hit the volleyball on his head, he made to fight me back as I wanted to throw it into the net,,, A car was passing when it unfortunately bounced on the car.
We turned swiftly to see the car stopped immediately and the car door opened and a Lady walked out,,, I sense trouble
" Who the heck threw the ball? "she shouted coming over while I just turned my back on them like nothing happened
" We're sorry "Ezra said to her
" I asked a question right? I said who the hell threw the ball and made it hit my car,,,, who is that person??? "She yelled
" I "I said turning to face her
Arabella's pov
" I "he faced me and as soon as my eyes met with his, I never wanted to take off my eyes from him forever. He's so fucking handsome!
" So you're the one? "I finally said shaking off the thought
" Yes, sorry. Let's go guys "I said and started walking away with them
" Hey wait! "we heard her called and turned to her back
" You think you can just go like that? Well no,,, it's not that easy. "I smirked at them
" So what else do you want, we already said sorry. isn't that enough? "He said boldly
" Yes, what else do you want from us? "The one by his side said
My phone beeped in my hand and I opened the message,,,
Where are you Bella??? you're urgently needed here
" I don't have time for you guys,,, Till we meet again "I said and started walking away from them
" I never wish to meet you again psycho " I heard him shout behind me and laughed out as I got in,,,though you don't wish to meet me again, but I want to meet meet you again handsome.
Henry's pov
" How do you find her? "Ezra asked as we walked back home
" How else will I find her,,, someone who insulted us and acted like a psycho that she really is "I snarled
" But she's cute though "Matteo said with a wink
" I won't denial that "I said and walked ahead of them before they would start throwing questions at me
*****
We walked into the house and as soon as we entered my room, we started perceiving a kind of aroma. Am not sure it's coming from this room,,
" Don't you guys perceive something? "Micah was the first to talk
" Maybe it's from the next house "I said and sat down on the couch to take off my shirt,,,
" Henry! you're back "I looked to see Valeria coming out of the kitchen,, I immediately put on my shirt back. what's she doing here??
" Hi Valeria " i looked to see Micah smiling at her
" Someone should explain how she
entered,,, you're with the key right? "I faced Ezra
" I was the one who gave it to her "he said scratching his head
" Now that that we're back, thank you Valerie you,,, you can go "I went to open the door for her to pass
" Have prepared something for you guys in the kitchen,,,, you too Henry "She faced them and then back at me
She stopped before me,,,
" My bag! "she suddenly said and hurried to the kitchen,I cast them a bad glare and they looked away
She came back with her handbag, she was about to go out when she stopped and faced me,,,
" Bye Henry "she smiled widely and I immediately looked away, she walked out and I shut the door loudly.
" Why are you treating that girl like this,,, See what she just done. she cooked for you "Matteo said on my way to the kitchen, I stopped and faced them
" Who told you am interested in the food, henceforth I don't want to see her here "I said and banged into the kitchen, I came out with the pot of food.
" Who wanna eat? "I asked looking at their faces, they shook their head negatively at the same time.
" Since you guys aren't eating, am going to dump it in the bin "I declared
" What,,,, Henry!!! "The said in unison
