Chapter three
Bella
I arrived at the door to see Bella in a very intimate position with another lady kissing each other hungrily.
I shut my eyes close as I saw them and hurried to my room. "Get a room please" , I yelled.
"Okay, I am so sorry, didn't know the match would be over so soon"
"Well, it did and you should have come as well",
"Nah!!..there wouldn't be a lot of hot girls, just guys. Wait I hope you met someone already",
"Hmmm…about that I did",
"Spill it all out",
"Nothing to spill anyways, like I said previously I am not open to a romantic relationship",
Bella moved closer. "Let me tell you a secret",
"The only way to forget someone else is to focus on a new person",
I rolled my eyes in shock. "You are kidding right!"My phone rang and I picked it up from my bag to see that I was invited tomorrow to the café where I applied for a job.
"No, that's what I do and it works for me", Bella replied. "What's up?",
"Well, I am so happy I have been called for an interview",
"Really, go girl you got this",
The next day I arrived and after asking several people for directions was able to locate the place where I was to start working.
I entered and met a fat white man in his forties sitting down.
It didn't take long as he interviewed me and asked me to resume work as soon as possible.
I walked back to my hostel so happy and glad that I have gotten a job that I could use to help myself while I'm at school.
I didn't look properly while crossing the road and didn't see the car before it hit me. The impact knocked me off the road, and I fell hard, hitting my head.
I lost consciousness and don't remember what happened. The next thing I knew, I was waking up in the hospital, dazed and in pain, with my roommate sitting beside me, watching over me.
"Thank goodness you are awake!",
"What do you mean?"
"Well, this is the third day of you been admitted into the hospital and the guy who ran over you was lucky he was cute or else I was ready to make sure he riot in jail",
"He was also glad no part of your body was injured, I make sure the doctors did a double check on you to be sure or else, he got a wife already",
I rolled my eyes in confusion. "Are you f**King kidding me right now", I yelled. "What about my appointment? I was supposed to resume work the next day", I asked, ignoring all her flirty comments.
"Is that what you should be concerned about", she was back to being serious.
"You almost lost your life and you are busy worrying about a job", Bella didn't fail to give me that disappointing look. "If you must know they called and I told them that you won't be resuming since you got into an accident on your way back",
"Geez…you Oh my God, I am totally f**ked up",
"What do you need the job for again, perhaps you and this nude can link up he looks like old money Whitney",
A knock at the door jolted back to reality.
"We need maximum composure" she whispered.
I didn't bulge an eyelid. Whatever Bella was trying to do here match-making me with whatever guy I wasn't interested in.
The door opened and I gasped in shock. Who the hell was standing right there looking at me. Wait!I accidentally just got hit by Jason.
"Hey!, thank goodness you are awake!", he voiced out concern evident in his voice
"Yeah",
"I am so sorry Whitney",
"You should be, for putting me in such a badddd condition",
"What the hell were you even thinking?, "Bella yelled like a strict mom.
"Where you drunk?", I asked with disbelief evident in my voice. "Ofcourse, you should be coming back from one of your badass party"
Bella didn't interfere. She allowed me to rant before speaking.
"Young man. Thank your stars you are cute and rich, and nothing happened to my friend or you are going to marry her, I swear"
The doctor walked in and after examining me again. He turned over to them. "She is perfectly fine right now",
"Does it mean we can go because this dude here gonna take care of my friend for a couple of days before returning her back to me",
"You are kidding right!", I replied.
"Kind of",
Jason didn't utter a word. He was deeply sorry.
"Please, allow me to make it up to you", he said feeling remorseful.
I had to speak up for myself. "There would be no need for that",
"I insist",
"Wow….you really don't know how to give up do you?",
"Yeah",
Jason waited and helped Bella as they carried Whitney back to the dormitory.
"please permit me to pay up for the inconvenience caused by me",
"Sure", Bella answered.
He didn't hesitate as he transferred ten thousand dollars to my account before leaving.
"Wow, this dude is loaded isn't it?"
