“I think you should get going miss” Asher looked front with a hærdened look on his face.
Tricia sighed while looking at him. Now that she knows about his past life, she wants to help him out but will he ever accept to open up?
Tricia held his hand which took his by surprise. She smiled sweetly.
“Asher…” She called.
This will be the first time she’s calling his name so sweetly and right now, it sounded like sweet music to his ears
“You know, my mom used to tell me that the past is the cause of the presence and the presence is the key to the future.” She said and leaned forward then pecked him on the l-ips which took him by surprise.
“Think about it, you’ll know what I mean. Have a nice day” Tricia said and came down the car then put on her shades before walking into the restaurant.
Asher sat there, confused as everything was just a mess in his head. What does she mean about it? Why did she k-ss him again? Why? Why? Why?
He held his head tightly anf tried to shrug away those thoughts that won’t stop bothering him.
With a sigh, he ignited the engine and drove off to work.

“Tricia, how are you doing?” Charles stood up and they hugged each other.
“I’m cool, thanks” She said and sat down on the chair that Charles drew out for her.
“You don’t seem okay. With the way you called me yesterday I was worried sick about you. Anything wrong?” He asked.
“Can I get you something” A waitress asked.
“A glass on water will be okay for me” Tricia said
“I’ll take a mug of coffee” Charles spoke.
She bowed and went away…
Tricia sighed and removed her shades then kept it on the table. Should she tell Charles about what she found out?
Well she has to share it with someone and Charles seem trust worthy.
“It’s about Asher..” Tricia spoke and looked out of the window.
“What? Is he sick or something?” Charles asked and rested his chin on both hand.
Tricia took a moment before opening up…
“I found out something about him and I think it contribute to his cold attitude. You know me, being nosy and curious as always I went through his things and saw a diary. His diary” Tricia said.
“Here’s your order” The waitress placed the order and walked away.
“So I kinda read his diary and I found out that he once had a lover but his parents were against the idea of them getting married. That kinda contributed to the reason why his lover died and she was pregnant with his child.” Tricia said.
“Wow, that’s harsh… Does he know that you know?” Charles sipped on his coffee
“No, he will be so mad if he finds out!” Tricia said.
“I now understand why he’s like that. I have to say his parents are really something else” Charles spoke.
“Yeah, what possible wrong did the lady do that made them to refuse their love life. Now I understand why Asher never speaks of his parents, he must be angry against them.” Tricia said.
Charles looked keenly at Tricia with a furrowed brow.
“Why are suddenly so concerned about how Asher is feeling, tell me Tricia do you have any feelings for him?” Charles asked.
Tricia suddenly choked on air. She took her glass of water and quickly gulped it down.
“Me… Feelings for him? Eww!!” Tricia stuttered.
Charles chuckled and took another sip on his coffee.
“Come one Tricia, you can lie to anyone but not to me. In the beginning you never cared about his feelings or anything about him in fact you said he pissed you off all the time. Now look at you, you’re here worrying about him” Charles said and smiled…
“Alright…I admit it, his arrogance succeeded in stealing my heart away.” Tricia blushed.
“I have to do make him forget about his past. Maybe reuniting him with his family will help.” Tricia suggested..
“That seems like a good idea” Charles smiled…
“Yeah, I’ll make everything possible to reunite them together. That will be my Christmas gift for him.”
Tricia switched her phone on to see the date.
“Today is the 23rd so I have today and tomorrow to find his parents. Hope I’ll succeed.” Tricia said with pure determination.
She looked at Charles and smiled.
“Let’s get to work. I still have a concert to hold in two days” Tricia stood up.
Charles stood up too.
“Let’s get going then”
Charles and Tricia walked out of the restaurant. They entered Charles car and he drove off.

“Boss, could you please sign here” Asher’s secretary entered his office with some doc-ments.
He read through it before signing were necessary. She nodded and walked away.
Asher continued his work but he couldn’t seem to concentrate. His mind keeps going back to what Tricia said. What did she mean by that?
He shrugged it away and continued his work but deep down he was feeling like she’s hiding something from him.
That continued like that till he couldn’t hold it any longer so he packed his remaining work in his suitcase and stood up.
“I’m going back home. Postpone all meetings today” Asher said to his secretary and walked away.
He entered his car and began driving home. He didn’t know what pushed him to take the road heading to Tricia’s dance rehearsal ground. He just really wants to see her.
He stopped his car and got down the car then walked into the house.
“Greetings Mr Jones” A worker greeted.
He nodded in reply. Tricia’s voice could be heard as she instructed her dancers.
“You have to apply more pressure on the part where you roll your body okay… Like this” She did a body roll.
“And you there, sorry to say but you’re a little bit behind the choreography” She said to one of the dancers.
“We have to make this concert to be perfect okay? So when we combine all the choreography it goes like this..”
The music began playing and she danced along, moving her body to the rhythm of the music. Asher couldn’t help but stare at her like in a trance….
“That’s how it’s supposed to go. Got it” Tricia smiled
“Yes miss” They chorused…
Tricia turned to see Asher standing there looking at her.
“Oh, hi Asher. Anything wrong?” She waved with a smile on her face.
Asher blinked back at came back to his senses.
“Hi, just came to pick you up. I can wait if you’re not through” Asher spoke still looking at her.
“Okay, let me change and let’s go” Tricia walked away with a bag containing her dresses.
Her face turned to a serious one when she was away from Asher.
“Have to find something that can help me locate his parents. Have to do that unfailingly tonight” She thought as she got dressed up.
🎄 CHAPTER 17🎄
★★★★
ASHER’S MANSION**
Asher’s car just stopped at his garage and he came down with Tricia
“It’s still surprising that you came to visit me” Tricia chuckled
“How many times will you say that, I’m not that bad” Asher replied
Finally they got in,side and groups of maids began greeting them, only Tricia responded to the greetings but Asher didn’t bother instead he just went to his room
“So what are we having for dinner?” Tricia asked, the head of the maids. Madam Polar, she looked like she’s in her mid age already
“Roasted carrots and beef ma’am” madam Polar replied
“Sounds delicious, can’t wait I’ll be right back” Tricia smiled and went upstairs to shower and change when she was done she went straight to Asher’s room and knocked on his door
“Who’s it?” He asked
“It’s Tricia” she replied
The door opened and Asher came out
“What’s up?” He asked
“It’s dinner time or don’t tell me you’re not hungry” she said
“I’m not hungry” he replied
“Come on Asher, the maids are not robots, they are humans with feelings how can you let them cook then you won’t eat, how would they feel it’s unfair” Tricia said sadly
Asher didn’t respond instead he looked elsewhere
“Nevermind, you can never change anyways” she muttered and rushed back downstairs
Asher sighed and threw his head backwards
****
Tricia sat at the dinning, she tried eating the wh0le meal herself but they were too much
Suddenly Asher came to sit beside her, he grabbed the plate of beef and began eating
“Why did you come back?” Tricia scoffed
“Because you’re right, they are humans like me and I’ve not always been fair” Asher replied, eating up already
Tricia looked at him eating and smiled secretly
******
12:00am***
Everyone in the mansion are sleeping already expect from Tricia, she kept pacing back and forth in her room, unable to sleep
When she couldn’t contain these feelings anymore she went to the living room and continued pacing
“Tomorrow is the deadline, I must find his parents on Christmas Eve, it’s a must but where do I start from?” She asked herself
As she was thinking she began hearing footsteps coming towards her, her heart began thumping and she tightened her fist
The footsteps got close and the person grabbed her shoulders, Tricia turned almost immediately ready to throw a punch at the person but paused when she saw that it was madam Polar
“You??, What are you doing here?” Tricia asked
“I should be asking you that” madam Polar replied and let go of her shoulders
There was silence for a long while before madam Polar moved forward
“I actually came to see you, I’ve been looking for how to talk to you and I think now is my chance” madam Polar said
“Is everything alright, why do you wanna see me?” Tricia asked
Madam Polar sniffed and looked elsewhere
“You’re the second female he’s free with” she said
“What are you talking about?’ Tricia asked
“I’m talking about Mr Asher, you’re the second female he’ll ever be free with yunno, after her death” madam Polar repeated
Tricia gulped and looked at her. “If you’re trying to say something then say it”
“I’ve worked for him for years now, he was once a cheerful man, a happy man, a kind hearted man, a man that never has any reason to frown a man that cherish Christmas with her and his family but after her death he changed completely” madam Polar said and cleaned the tears rolling down her cheeks
“You’re talking about Asher right?” Tricia asked and madam Polar nodded
“I promised his parents I’ll watch over him, I promise I’ll try to make him happy but I can’t do it” she said
“You know his parents?” Tricia asked in shock
“Yes we do get in touch, I help them check after him, they miss him so much ma’am, I just wish he recognizes that” madam Polar said and sniffed
Tricia smiled and held madam Polar’s hand
“Send me their location, I’ll love to see them wait they are here at Paris right?” She asked and Polar nodded
“Give me their address and I’ll talk to them first thing tomorrow morning, I’ll bring them back here and make them reunite. I promise” Tricia said with nothing but full determination
Madam Polar smiled and hugged her tight
“I’m grateful, I’ll send you the location on your what’s app, can I have your number?” Madam Polar asked
Tricia went to the mini shelf, where she had kept a book and a pen earlier, she tore a sheet from the book and wrote her number
“Here” she gave madam Polar
“Send me the location first thing tomorrow morning” Tricia said and madam Polar nodded
“Goodnight” Tricia smiled and went back to her room
“I have two days left, this is what I can do for you before I leave” she thought and cleaned the tears falling from her eyes
Then she climbed her bed and hugged her pillow tight
“From tomorrow everything would change I promise” she muttered then close her eyes and slept off
**********
Next Morning***
Tricia climbed down the stairs all dressed in her thick coat, she met Asher at the dinning waiting for breakfast
“Good morning” she greeted with a smile
“Good morning” he smiled back, wondering what was making her so happy
The maids served the breakfast and they ate in peace. Tricia phone beeped and she rose up immediately
“What’s wrong with you?” Asher asked
“Nothing I need to go to the rehearsals, tomorrow is the concert and I think you should prepare for it, yunno like the venue and everything” Tricia replied
“Alright I’ll esc-rt you to your car” Asher said and stood up too
Tricia nodded and they both walked to the garage together
“You won’t tell me why you’re so happy today?” Asher asked
Tricia faced him and without warning she hugged him, shocking the day light out of him in that process, she snuggled her face on his chest and inhaled his scent
“It’ll all be fine trust me, it’ll soon be over” she whispered and pulled away then entered her car
Asher on the other hand stood rooted in s₱0t, yes what she did cut him off guard
“What does she mean?” He thought
********
“Turn left” Tricia said to her driver and he did
“Now move 5km straight before turning to the left again” she said, looking at the map through her phone
“Make sure you take a U turn by the right” she added and the driver nodded
“Almost there” she thought
“Straight” she said, the driver kept moving straight
“Now lastly to your left” she said
The driver moved left
“Stop” she ordered and the driver stopped
Tricia looked a bit front and saw the big beautiful welcoming mansion, she opened her WhatsApp and looked at the picture madam Polar sent her
They look the same no difference
“This most be the place” she thought and sighed
She then took her black sun glasses and her nose mask before stepping down
“Here I come” she muttered and put on her sun glasses.
