Mateo stared at the building in the compound beautified with different colorful flowers whose scent filled the atmosphere, making the atmosphere cool and conducive.
This is a really nice place, I love it “Mateo smiled nodding his head with a kind of sensation as he entered the building together with Mitchie.
Thanks for admiring our mini palace “Mitchie rubbed her palms together.
Yh, my pleasure “Mateo made a short bow.
Give me few minutes to go get you something to drink”
No problem”
Mitchie trotted into the dining room and swerved left into the kitchen.
Mateo picked up the television control, changing channels until Mitchie came around with a tray she placed in front of Mateo on the entry table. It contained a mug plate with some pieces of chocolate pie, a glass cup and a bottle of chilled wine.
Thanks “Mitchie chuckled as he took a piece of pie and took a bite nodding his head with a sign of satisfaction.
My pleasure” Mitchie said blushing. She sat down beside Mateo as they stared and smiled at one another as there was a moment of silence.
Guess what?” Mateo trilled...
What??” Mitchie asked anxiously
I am taking you out today”
You don’t mean” Mitchie opened her eyes wide in excitement
I am damn serious”
Wow, that’s so nice of you. I can’t remember if I ever had someone to take me out except my childhood days when my dad took me and my brother out for cinemas, shopping and to playgrounds.” Mitchie was so excited she didn’t know what to do but found herself hugging Mateo. She disengaged immediately when she came to reality.
Ow, sorry” Mitchie said shyly “Lemme get myself dressed” Mitchie stood up and stride to her room.
Mateo smiled, he looked interested in Mitchie and would love to get married to her. He picked up his wine cup and sipped the wine.
Mitchie walked hastily to the ladies room...
Wakey- wakey ladies” Mitchie knocked on their room doors.
Immediately Lily and Angelina woke up but of course Rose was still on bed rolling from one edge of the bed to another. Mitchie entered Rose room and tapped her by the feet.
We are going out but your wish if you wanna come along” Mitchie whispered.
She jumped off the bed and ran into the bathroom. Mitchie chuckled and left the room to go and freshen up and dress up.
Mateo’s attention diverted from the television program he was watching to see a dolly bird, dressed in a long sleeveless cream kid of robe. Mitchie looked absolutely gorgeous turning Mateo crazy. Her cart- walked to meet Mateo as her loosed long glossy hair fell tidily over her shoulders.
Mateo couldn’t resist anymore, he stood up as a slow smile spread across his face, trying to say something, but nothing came out.
Summoning up courage he said. “I’ll like you to be mine” Mitchie smiled but said nothing. “I mean I will marry you”
Mateo paused and continued “just accept and I will take good care of you” Mateo knelt with his left knee holding Mitchie’s hand.
Yeeeeeeeeeeess” Mitchie stretched out the life out of the yes.
Mateo face gloomed with smile.
Am so happy”
Am happy too” they both hugged each other...
Rose, Lily, and Angelina were set and they came out of their rooms only to find Mitchie in Mateo arms. They were surprised as they exclaimed with joy for Mitchie.
Wh-a---o
I knew it would turn out to be like this, but it’s quite pretty” Angelina said sarcastically after Mitchie and Mateo had disengaged.
I promise to take care of her” Mateo said with all boldness just to convince the girls although he hadn’t met with Mitchie’s parent but hope to do so someday.
Okay no problem” Lily chimed.
Let’s be on our way now or… “Mitchie said with all her gazes on Mateo
Yea we should” Mateo replied.
They made their way out of the building to Mateo’s car.
In the car,
Mitchie received a message on her phone. She brought it out from her purse, checked the message which she read to be sent by number unknown.
Mitchie went through the message and then she said aloud “who is this??” She stared furiously at her phone screen which revealed the message.
What’s the matter??” Mateo asked.
I just received a message from an unknown number”
And what is it all about?” Angelina asked thinking maybe it’s a music invitation.
It’s a threatening message to stop crossing Ava’s path, if not I will experience what will lead me to jail and finally death”
Do you mean you know who Ava is??” Mateo asked.
Of course yes, she is a musician” Mitchie replied.
That is my sister, she also own a music band”
Really? Your sister??” Mitchie asked with surprise.
Yea she is my sister but we don’t live together anymore, but why is she after you”
I can’t really depict what I have once done for her to make me receive bad impression from her”
Hmm” Mateo sighed and continued “Have you two once had encounter with each other before??
Yeah, we just met at one wedding party where we both were invited to come and perform but during my performance, her anger kindled against me as she stared at me ruefully.”
That’s it, she gets angry on minor things and can go extra miles to have her revenge, but don’t worry nothing will happen to you”
Okay , if you say so, but why does she behaves like that because ever since I met you, I’ve noticed you to be a cool headed guy, and easy going young handsome dude, but your sister Ava is a direct opposite of you though she’s beautiful.
It’s a long story……
What do you mean by it’s a long story?? ……
