HIS LUCKY STAR - EPISODE 7 AND 8

Austen looked at Eddy for a while before looking out of the window

“Why did you do it?” Nikita whispered

“It’s a secret” he whispered

” You’re full of surprises” she replied and Eddy held her hand

“I just have to protect you whenever I get the chance” he replied and she rested her head on his shoulder

Austen looked at them and smiled, even if she didn’t introduce him, he knows he’ll be her brother cos of their looks

He loves the siblings bond they share and that instant, he started wishing he had a loving sibling who cares a lot about him too

Till they got to their house, he never got the chance to see her face again cos Eddy blocked it completely

“Here we are” the driver said, stopping the car in front of the house

“Thanks for the ride Mr Austen, you barely know us but you helped, you’re really kind” Nikita said

” It’s nothing” he replied as Eddy helped her out of the car, that was when he got the chance to see her face again

“Bye Mr Austen” she waved and he smiled…. Her smile is just too cute

” Bye, take care of yourself” he said

“Thanks” she replied and Eddy rolled eyes at him as the driver drove him away

“I don’t trust that guy” Eddy said

*Why?, He’s kind” she replied

” And I’m saying people can’t be judged by how they look these days” he replied

” Ok what did he do to you?, Have you ever met him?, Why hate him” she replied as he guide her in

” I don’t hate him , I just don’t like the way he was staring at you, you’ll think he wants to devour you like a shark” he replied and Nikita giggled

” You’re too sensitive” she said

“I don’t care , it’s my sister we’re talking about and I don’t want perverts around” he replied

” He’s not a pervert, I can just smell it” she said

” Oh Kita, you’re so stubborn… Ok I give up” he said and she smiled as they got into their room

“I need to take a shower” she said, going into the room

Just like she knows everything about the cafe, she knows everything about the house too… She uses same room with Eddy cos it’s a single room apartment,,

“Be careful, I’ll make dinner while you’re in there” Eddy said, entering the small kitchen

” Ok ” she replied

****

Regina’s Mansions**

“You came late” Regina said when Austen finally showed up

“Sorry mum, I just had to do something” he replied

” I understand” she replied, hugging him

After pecking her on both cheeks as usual, he was led to the dinning where he ate

The only thing he eats at home is breakfast and that’s not even every morning, he always eats dinner at Regina’s place

“Austen” Regina suddenly said

“Yes mum ?” He replied, looking up at him

“He didn’t hit you today right?” She asked slowly

“He didn’t get the chance, but I guess he’ll get it tomorrow’ he replied sadly

“Can I go talk to him?” Regina said

“No, you know what happened the last time you tried that, he’s not worth talking to” he replied and Regina stood to come to him, she hugged his head to herself and sobbed silently

“I love you so much Austen, seeing you get hit by him everyday for an unknown reason really hurts” she said

” Mum stop already, I said I’m fine” he said

” You don’t look like it, you’re always sad, I hate it” she replied and Austen stood, he held her shoulders

” Mum, I promise to be fine, please smile for me” he said and she smiled a bit

” My treasure” she said and hugged him tightly

” I love you mum” he said

” Love love you Austen” she replied.

*****

Nikita’s place**

Eddy just finished making dinner when BB came in with some books in hand

Eddy sighed and blocked the way

“You here to eat my dinner again?, No chance” he said

“I’m not interested in your dinner tonight so chill” she said seriously

” You ok?” He asked, letting her in

She sat beside the table and smiled cutely

“Tutor me” she said

“Why should I?” He replied

“I told you I wanna come to your school, tommorow is the last day for the exams, I have to go for it tomorrow no matter what, I just need to refresh my memory with your help” she said

” You shouldn’t bother coming again, you’re only coming to cause troubles so stay away” Eddy replied

.” Is it because I asked gently?” She said

” I don’t want to tutor you” he replied and made to enter the kitchen but she pulled him back, he fell and she sat on his belly

“Tell me you’ll tutor me” she said, landing her butt on his stomach repeatedly

” Are you tryna make me vomit my stomach components?, Stop!” He said loudly, trying to push her away but she’s so strong

“Tell me you’ll tutor me” she said, jumping again

“Oh no please!” He shouted and suddenly slipped his hands on her back, he luckily made her fall and he slept on top of her instead

“I won’t” he said, pinning her hands to the floor

“Tutor me” she whispered like a girl, first time she’ll talk like a girl

And now he knows what Olive and Sunny were saying is true, she’s pretty….her eyebrows are full but well carved, she has a mole on her face and her lips is natural red

“Are you trying to seduce me?, Your charms are too poor, it won’t work” he said and Nikita came out from the room

” I heard BB’s voice” she said

“Kita you need to tell this baby boy here to tutor me,I need to enter that school on Monday” BB replied and Eddy let go of her

She stood, breathing heavily

“He will, don’t worry” Nikita replied, sitting beside the table

” Nikita why are you always on her side, I’m your brother” Eddy complained

“She asked for just a little help, three hours tutor won’t be bad” she replied

” Nikita!” He shouted and BB laughed

” You’re the best Kita” she said

“How was your day?” Nikita asked

“Great….eat, I’ll wait till you guys are done” she said, standing up

” You should join us” Nikita said

“No I’m full, I ate some minutes ago” she replied and sat far from them

Eddy and Nikita ate silently and BB flipped the pages of the maths textbook around, smiling as she did

Some years ago when her parents were still alive, she used to be one of the best in Flowers high … But now some freaking idiots murdered her parents in cold blood and she had to leave school…..those FREAKING BASTARDS

As she thought about them, she got angered and hit the pen angrily on the floor, breaking it in the process

“BB are you ok?” Nikita asked immediately she heard the crashing sound

“I am” she replied slowly, rolling eyes at no one in particular

If only she could get the bastards one day and kill them with her bare hands

But she’s sure that day is coming, it’ll surely come

Nikita went to sleep after dinner then BB moved to the table and Eddy started with mathematics

As he solved and explained the questions, she nodded, getting everything, they’re all what she did before dropping out

“English please” she said and he brought out the English textbook.. within thirty minutes, she got all what needed to be gotten and they moved to chemistry then biology….

It only took two hours…..

“When you know a lot, why did you bother coming” he said and stood

“I just needed to refresh my memory that’s why…baby boy” she smiled

” Can you stop calling me that already?” He replied and she giggled

” Baby boy” she winked

” Gosh!, She won’t listen….I’m going to bed” he replied

” Can I sleep here?” She asked and Eddy smirked

“No, go to your apartment” he said and entered the room

BB sighed and pushed the books to another part of the table, she placed her head on it and slept off within minutes

“Will she still be staying?, Was she serious about it?” Eddy wondered as he slept beside Nikita

He closed his eyes to sleep but couldn’t, he opened it again and left the room, just like he had thought… she’s still there, her head on the table, fast asleep

“Warrior” he smiled and went to her

“Ion know how to give bed to strangers but I’ll be kind enough to give you” he said and walked to her, he carried her in his arms into the room and surprisingly she’s so lightweighted

He dropped her beside Nikita and covered her, she moved her red lips sleepily and he smiled

“If her parents were really murdered,who are they?” He wondered, looking at her face

Even when asleep, she still looks dangerous

He left the room and went to the living room, he sat on the ground like she did , he placed his head on the table and slept off

*****

Austen’s mansion**

“Normally I don’t sleep at night cos of this f*cking persistent insomnia but now I think this is more than insomnia” Austen said to himself as he worked out in the living room

All he could see anytime he closes his eyes is her beautiful face and cute smile, all he could think of is her

He did an headstand then started press up too, various kinds of exercises just to make her leave his head but it ain’t working

“She’s not the first girl I’ll ever see… Austen!!!!…. But she’s perfect, she’s rare, how can a girl be blind but cute, pretty, perfect and hard-working at the same time?” He asked himself, sweating a lot

He went into the bathroom and had a shower but even in the shower, her face is everywhere

He held the glass as the water streamed down his body

“Did it really happen to me?, LAFS?” He asked himself

******

Next morning**

BB woke up on the bed and stretched herself lightly, she sat up and saw Nikita beside her

“Wait…. how did I….

She looked around for Eddy but she’s not in the room

Getting down from the bed, she left for the small living room and met him sleeping with his head on the table

“He switched places with me?, Baby boy” she smiled, walking to him

She made to tap him gently but changed her mind and tapped him roughly

“Bright it’s still early in the morning” he said, sitting up sleepily

” It’s past 7 already, get your lazy ass up” she replied

“After giving up my bed for you last night, this is all you could do, waking me roughly” he said, glaring at her

” I’m not sorry” she replied and he made to grab her but she ran to the door

“Say good morning to Kita on my behalf when she wakes, I’m off!” She said and left

“Crazy tomboy” he said and smiled, going into the room

*****

8:45am**

“I’ll stop at the cafe, need to grab a cup of coffee” Austen said during the drive to work that morning

” Coffee again?, How can the popular CEO of MM be found in a coffee cafe repeatedly” Ray replied

” So the people who visit the cafe aren’t humans?” Austen replied

” I don’t mean that…I mean…why are you so stubborn” Ray said and Austen smiled as the car came to an halt in front of the cafe

He went in and took his seat quietly, Ray sat across him

“Hi I’m Zara, your server for this morning, what can I offer you” one of the servers said

” I want someone else to serve me” he said, looking across at Nikita

” Sir?” The server said

“I want someone else…to serve me” he replied and the server left

“The billionaire is here again” Sunny whispered to Nikita

“Really?” Nikita replied

“Yes”

“He says he wants someone else to serve him” Zara said when she appeared

” I’ll go* Sunny said and left for his table

” No…not you” Austen said

“Then who?” Sunny asked

*The girl who served me yesterday” he replied

” Oh … Nikita?” Sunny smiled

” Her name is Nikita?” Austen said

“Of course , she’ll be here in a jiffy” Sunny replied and left

*He wants you” she whispered into Nikita’s ear

” Me?”

” Go, fast, same table” Sunny said and Nikita smiled, making her way to table 5

” Hi I’m Nikita, your server for this morning, what should I make you?” She said

” Did you sleep well last night?” He asked and Ray’s eyes widened

“Boss”..”

” Shhh” he hushed and faced Nikita who also seems surprised by the question

” Oh … Well I did and thanks for the drive yesterday” she replied slowly

“I’m glad you slept well” he replied and started staring at her without saying a thing again

Her face is just too appealing and enticing, it’s seductive too and charming, she’s making him fall even without trying

“Boss you need to order” Ray said and he sighed

“Mocha, just like the one you made yesterday” he said and she bowed before leaving to make it, she came back after some minutes and dropped it on the table

“Wait” he said and she did

He started sipping slowly while she kept standing

“You should sit” he said, drawing out the third chair

“We aren’t allowed to sit during work” she replied

“I just have something to say” he replied

” Then I’m listening” she replied and he dropped his cup on the table

” Work for me” he said

” What do you mean?” She replied confusedly

“Become my coffee server in my office” he said

” Oh…I can’t do that” she replied

” Why?, Ok I’ll double your salary…or triple it” he said

” I still won’t, I’m happy here” she replied

” You’ll be happy over there too, not like my office is an house of sadness” he said and she smiled

” I understand but still…I’m sorry but I can’t” she said and started leaving but suddenly felt his hand on her wrist, he actually held her and she gasped

“Austen…’ Ray whispered

” I’m sorry…I just .. love your coffee so much and… I want to get to taste it everyday without having to drive here…. please” he said pleadingly

She carefully and gently removed her hand from his hold and bowed, she left without saying a word

“I think I now understand” Ray smiled

“Stop talking” Austen replied and Ray giggled

***

Sunshine high**

“Melissa?” Olive said as Melissa entered the cafeteria during lunch break

Eddy is actually eating lunch with Olive

She came straight to their table and took their foods

“Dogs aren’t supposed to eat in this cafeteria” she said and walked to the bin, she dropped the plates of food in it and wiped her hands with handkerchief

“Worthless dogs” she said

Eddy lost it completely this time around, he made to walk to her and just slap her but a masked person walked into the cafeteria and grabbed Melissa’s hair harshly

“Ouch!” She screamed loudly as the person dragged her to Eddy and Olive, she was made to kneel in front of them,,

A proper look at the masked person , Eddy figured out it’s BB

“Apologize” she said in a muffled tone

“Who the hell are you!, I can’t apologise to dogs” Melissa replied and BB raised her boot to Melissa’s face,, Melissa flinched in fear of what it might do to her face

” Smell the aroma?, You’ll be flying to San Francisco if I hit you with it” BB said

Students are already making videos of the strange person setting Melissa straight

Olive smiled, seems she figured out it’s BB already

“Apologize!” BB yelled

“I’m….I’m….so… sorry” Melissa stuttered and BB slapped her hard across the face

” My face!” She winced, holding it

“There she is” the school securities said, entering the cafeteria

“You guys are frustrating” BB muttered and jumped on the tables as she got chased,,

The whole cafeteria scattered as she jumped over tables and poured away foods and drinks till she’s out of there

Melissa ran out, holding her face

“She came for the scholarship exams and she’s already like this, when she gets admitted then it’s over” Olive laughed

” I think I’m liking her” Eddy said and Olive held his hand

” Let’s go to class” she winked, pulling him out

*****

MM group of companies**

Das stormed into Austen’s office and Austen stood, ready for whatever he’ll do

He avoided it yesterday but today… maybe he can’t

Das came to him and hit his hands on his table angrily

“You dare call me a bastard?” He said

“Oh…. Jillian told you” he replied

” How dare you!, How dare you killer!” Das yelled

” And why the hell am I addressed as a killer!, Who did I murder!, Das just tell me!” He yelled at the top of his voice

” Lira!, You killed her!, If you hadn’t come alive, she’d still be with me right now!” Das yelled

” My….my mother?” He said, tears rolling down his cheeks

“Yes killer!, You took away my happiness and that’s why you don’t deserve a little bit of happiness!, I hate you!” Das yelled.

” Is it my fault that she died after giving birth to me?” Austen cried

“Of course!, You should have stayed, you shouldn’t have tried coming to the world!” Das yelled

” It’s not my fault!, Do you know how hard it is for me without her?, I always dream of her and always want to see her…. Das how could you accuse me wrongly!” He yelled and Das raised his hand to Austen’s face

Austen closed his eyes, expecting a slap but it didn’t happen, he opened his eyes to see tears coming out of Das’s eyes too, he dropped his hand

“I regret the day you were born, I wish the day didn’t come….I wish” he muttered and left the office

Austen fell back on his chair tearfully and dejectedly, covering his face with his palm

“It wasn’t my fault” he cried bitterly…
