YOU OWN MY HEART - EPISODE 21

. ★★★★★★

“Like seriously?” Goldy said, smiling at the naughtiness

” Yeah” she replied

” Silly you” he said and slightly pushed her forehead with a finger

He made to go sit but she pulled him back and kissed him again, just as hard as he kissed her

She let him go after a while and peck his cheeks

“I love you Gold” she said

“Silly girlfriend” he said

” Tell me what I want to hear” she said

” I love you more, happy now? ” He said, going to sit

” where were you hiding at when I entered? ” She asked

” Behind the door” he replied

“How clever, I almost freaked out when you grabbed me” she replied

He smiled as they both settled down to read

” What should we start with?” He asked

“English” she replied quickly

” I want to ask something” he said

“Yes?”

“You won’t leave me right?” He said

“Why are you suddenly asking that?” She asked

“You know, you’re rich, I’m just a poor orphanage guy and…

“Gold!, Have I ever told you I’m after wealth?, I want love, not money, if I want money then I’ll go out there and work for it” she said seriously

” Nina…

“Please, don’t say that again I can’t trade you for anything, I mean anything” she replied, holding his hands on the table

” I’m glad” he said , smiling

“So stop worrying and just chill, I’m all yours” she said

“Love you” he said

” Love you big, so English” she said

He brought out the English textbook and opened to the next chapter to be treated

“Adjuncts” he said

“Ok… I’m listening tutor” she said as he started the tutorial…

***********

At a club**

Tiffany stayed in front of it, trying her dad’s number but he’s not picking

That’s his usual club, the one he always patronizes, that’s why she’s here to see him

Not like she’ll be happy to see him, but just to yell at him and let out the remaining anger on him

She tried his number one more time and he’s still not picking, she tried to enter the club in fury but she bumped into someone, a drunk guy with a bottle of vodka but it fell immediately she bumped into him

“Don’t tell me you’re blind, why the hell did you f*cking! Bump into me, you bloody wasted my booze!” The guy said and grabbed her arm

” Let me go!, It wasn’t intentional!” She said, trying to free herself but it’s impossible, his grip is so strong…

“You bitch!” The guy ranted and in the next minute, he punched her on the face, making her spit out blood as the side of her mouth got wounded as a result…

She spit out blood again but still, the drunkard is not ready to let go

He punched her again and almost hit her eyes, the side of her eyes got swollen too instantly, her eyes got woozy as if she’s tipsy, things started becoming blurry as the eyes started hurting

The guy made to punch her again but someone held his hand and pushed him away…

The drunkard fell and remained there

The guy faced her

“Are you ok?” He asked

She’s about to reply when her dad showed up

” Tiffany? ” Chen said unbelievably, she’s the last person he was expecting to see

He’s just coming to the club with two bitches beside him

“Freaking bastard!” Tiffany yelled and despite her hurting face, she reached out for him but he held her hand

“What are you doing here!” Chen yelled

She looked at him though his face looks blurry as a result of her eyes condition

“I renounce you as my dad!, I hate you!, And no matter how much you beg when you later realize what you’ve done to me.. I’ll never!, Forgive you.. bloody asshole!, F*ck you! ” She yelled at the top of her voice

” You must be drunk, go back to wherever you’re coming from” Chen replied and went in with his bitches

Tiffany almost can’t find her way cos of her eyes

She started finding the way with her hands but someone grabbed it

“Who are you?” She asked, taking her hand from his grip, she can’t even see him clearly

“Geoffrey, the guy who saved you from the drunkard earlier” he said

” Oh.. thanks” she replied and started walking away , she’d have hit her head on a car but he quickly held her

“I can help, just say your house address and I’ll take you in my car” Geoff said

Tiffany stood still for a while, though she hates getting help from others but she decided to take it anyways….

“Fifteen, Feathers close” she replied

He guided her to the car and started the drive

The first five minutes was silent

“Is Mr Chen your dad?” He Said

“Not anymore, and don’t talk about him” she replied

“Oh, I heard you saying you renounce him, you must really hate him” Geoffrey said

” And I said I don’t want to talk about him!, Just drive if you really want to help” she replied bluntly

He went mute after that and drove the remaining minutes in silence

.they got to her house and she got out of the car

By now her eyes are better but it’s still swollen with the side of her mouth

“Thanks” she said simply and made to enter.

“Get your face treated!” He said

She looked back and without saying anything, she faced the door again and opened it, she went in, slamming the door behind her…

Next day**

“Erica!’ Mickey called when she was going to class with the girls

Erica looked back and smiled when she saw him

“Go on girls, I’ll meet you in class” she said, going to Mick

“Hey buddy” she said

He hugged her lightly

“Watssup” he said with a wide smile

“I’m gud” she replied and he suddenly got serious

“You almost spoilt the game yesterday, you should have told Nelson you want me to follow you instead of going neutral” he said

” I said it cos that’s what I want that instant” she replied

” What you want?, It’s a game and you can’t ruin it with what you want” he said

” Wait…why are you taking it serious?, It’s my game right?, Fine..you invented it but it’s mine … So I can do anything I like, stop being serious” she said

He inhaled hard

*I’m sorry” he said

“It’s ok, let’s go to class” she said, leading the way back…

” What did I just do?” Mickey thought

Lunch break**

Eating and chatting is going on as usual, Mick and Nelson settled down beside Erica at a time….

“Erica” Nelson said radiantly

“Oh.. Nelson…

” Let’s exchange our plates of food Erica” Mickey said

” No thanks” Erica replied

” Why?” Mickey asked, winking secretly at her to remind her of the game they’re playing

“Nothing” she replied

Nelson smiled as they started eating

“Just watch, those two will fight, if they don’t fight then I’m not Cindy” Cindy said

” How will they fight when it’s just a game, Mick can’t fall for her right?, You said it yourself yesterday” Lucy said

” Yes I did but the look on Mickey’s face right now just proved me wrong.. just look at how he’s glancing at Erica every now and then” Cindy said

” You might be right” Nina said, focusing on them too

” Should we tell Cindy to stop the game before this gets worse?” Lucy said

” Ion know, I really want to watch Nels and Mickey’s fight” Cindy said

Nina hit her lightly

” Is that important now or saving Erica from mess” she said

” Watch something” Lucy said and they shifted their attention to Erica’s table again…

“It’s Friday, tonight is booze night… Erica we’ll go together right?” Mickey suddenly said

” Huh?” Erica said

” Let’s go together, friendly date” he said

Erica looked at Nelson and their eyes met…

” Will you go with me?” Nelson asked…

*I asked first” Mickey said..

Erica kept looking at Nelson and Mickey suddenly pulled her hand

“Let’s go” he said

“Why?, A command?” She asked

“Erica this is supposed to be a ….

“Shut up!” Erica said, standing up

“I’m… sorry” Mickey said slowly

Erica rushed out of the cafeteria while Nels rushed after her

Mickey sat confusedly

“Why am I suddenly like this?” He asked himself…
