Chapter 4 - THE MEETING

''AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH''

was my reaction after i fell from the heels . grace quickly helped me up. i screamed from the pain . they had to rush me to the hospital .

Apparently i broke my leg from trying on the heels . my mother came to visit me in the afternoon . i could already sense her plotting my death . she sat down on of the seats and began talking

''oh jayla , when will you ever stop creating trouble''

i just grinned in response . she stared at me carefully before saying 

''there is a function coming up , it is like a huge ball with dinner served''

i listened carefully to what she said . i did not want to get on her nerves again

she continued on by saying

''this time i want to introduce you to the new company manager's son , hes quite rich perhaps you would go well with him''

oh god why does everyone pair me with another , its getting tiring .

she kept going on and on about the guy . i finally stopped her and said 

''mom , i want to sleep so please go somewhere else''

she finally left and i started to doze off then i heard a phone call ring

phone call grace my bsf

ringing 

i quickly took the call and answered her

[''hey jayla , im outside want something to eat? '']

''yeah can you bring a burger and a milkshake''

[''wow , such a big back'']

''well you asked if i wanted anything so i said so''

[eitherways i'm coming just tell at the register]

''okeyy come fast''

grace cut the call and i started scrolling in instagram . when i found carter in one of the videos . he was advertising a tea product . dude that guy has a lot of jobs!

by the time grace came into my room it had already been evening . she greeted me and sat down

'' heyy gurlee , are you okay im so sorry for the heel incident '' she said trying so hard not to laugh

''ughh , i already told you i dont like heels ''

''either ways you have to wear them at the function''

''i don't wanna wear heels''

''you are wearing heels discussion over''

''no''

''yes''

''no''

''yes''

''NO''

''YES , you are wearing heels''

i pouted at the remark of what she said . she quickly put the milkshake in my mouth and i calmed down. she started speaking again

''you know i found more about that carter guy''

i sat up straight to hear it properly. she looked at me teasingly and said

''ayieehh , so you like that guy ''

i just rolled my eyes and she continued

''apparently that guy is pretty poor , he works a lot of jobs like marketing , deliver and etc. he is paying for his little sisters tuition and hs mother's hospital bills ''

''what happened to his mother''i asked curiously

''his mother has type 2 cancer , his father died when he was very young''

''where did you even get this information ''

''i asked at everhart register for his information and they gave me a file''

''oh ok but cant we help him in anyway''

she was scrolling through her phone when she said 

''you are too nice , we will find some way if we want to''

i finally nodded and the tiredness hit hard . i dozed off in the hospital bed
