“Boss,this isn’t what you should give to me.I mean it isn’t my complete payment”.I tried not to yell as I talked to boss who fisted his fists in anger

He looked like he was going to rip out my eyes if I continue talking but still I continued,I was angry too.

He haven’t paid me my salary for three months and now he is giving me half of it.This so unfair!

And the worst part of it is that I can’t quit this job – never.It is really hærd having a job these days and I wasn’t ready to hunt for a job again,I wasn’t ready.

“Shut up,boy!”.He snapped and I immediately kept quiet not one bit taken aback by his action.

He had always been the arrogant type of guy who no one would like to mess with but his character is so annoying.

“Take it or leave it,it’s your choice”.He smirked and i fought back the urge not to frowned.

Dammit!

I slowly took the few notes and walked out of his office glaring at him.He still had his smirk on and I almost wanted to cut off his l-ips.

I walk in his restaurant as a waiter and damn,it have been stressful.

I walked on the dark cold street my hands tung on my p-nt pocket.I realized it was about raining soon due to the thunders and lightning in the sky,so i fastened my steps home.I didn’t want to board a cab,my house wasn’t that far.

But soon enough my way was blocked by four guys who call themselves the ‘T’ boys probably because all their names start with a T.

They bully me whenever they have the chance, for some reasons known only to the them.

“Nice to meet you again,bastard”.One of them named Timothy said and I frowned.

“Am not a bastard”.I said and tried to walked away but I was punched on my stomach and I fell roughly on the floor.

Well,may be am really a bastard.

“How dare you talk back at us,huh?”.Another guy,Tripp said and hit me on my eyes which caused me to scre-m in pain.

“Shit! We should go now,people might see us”.Timothy said and they hurried away.

I tried to stand as droplets of rain fell on me but I couldn’t, I laid on the road as rain fell me and soon enough,I got to strength to stand and I walked home.

A soft voice stopped me from waking and I turned only to see a girl laying with the rain.

Her w-t long hair chung to her back as she danced,I noticed she was dressed like the 18ths and I frowned.

She must one of those girls who escape from a psychiatric hospital. She looked crazy,I mean who in their right senses would dance without music especially in the rain.

She would definitely catch cold.

“Hey! Stop that,you would catch cold”.I try not to say but I already said that and she turn to me with a smile.

That was when I saw how beautiful she looked,she got this flawless skin and a killer smile that would make you stare at her for long.

I decided to walk away but she began following me and I had no choice than to run.

I mean a crazy person is following me,what do you expect me to eo but still she is following me.Gosh!

“What do you want from me?”.I yelled and she shivered,looking suprised.

“You are hurt”.She said and touched my bruised eyes and stomach but I quickly pull her hands away.

She doesn’t even know me and she is touching me,what is wrong with her?

“Leave me alone and go to your home, okay?”.I said and she fondled with her hands.

“I don’t have anywhere to go to”.She said and I scoffed.

Really??

“Just go away”.I said and took some steps to my house,I opened the door and walked in before going into my room.

I freshened up and wore some comfortable clothes before going to the kitchen.I made an hot soup,I stared around the house and sighed.

This was the only thing mum left for me before she abandoned me,she didn’t even say bye.She just left!

I walked back to my room and laid on the bed but suddenly i realized I wasn’t feeling pains on my eyes and stomach.It just disappeared the moment that girl touched it.

Like seriously…Who is she??

🌀🌀LINCOLN POV

**

I woke up the next morning tiredly and the first thing I did was brushing my teeth.I wanted to make breakfast but since am almost late for work,I decided to cook when am back.

I took my bath and wore a brown Tee shirt and a dark short.I applied some hair cream to my hair before combing it and wow,it looked shiny.

I put on my shoes and then stare at my reflection in the mirror.Woah! I look handsome as always – of course.

I walked to the living room and opened the door to go out but stopped on my track remembering the strange girl I met yesterday.

Hope she didn’t sleep at my doorstep? Hope she went back to where ever she came from?

Darn it! For some reasons,I was beginning to regret not helping that poor girl.I mean what if she was saying the truth,what if she was truely homeless.

Nah! She must have lied,I shouldn’t think of her.

Slowly,I opened the door and sighed a sigh of relief realized she wasn’t at my doorstep. Thank Goodness,she left.

I smiled and walked out of the house hoping not to come across any of the T boys and thanks fully,I didn’t see any of them.

***

I returned back home at exactly 7pm,the time I usually come back from work.I opened the door when I got home and i went straight to the kitchen.

Gosh! My stomach was busy rumbling and begging for food.Though,I had eaten some snacks at the restaurant but i guess that was not enough.

Quickly,i prepared spaghetti and when it got ready,I brought it to the living room and went to my room to freshen up.

After freshening up,I wore my pajama and a slipper before walking back to the living room.I sat on a sofa and was about talking a spoon of the spaghetti when I heard a knock on my door.

I hærdly receive visitors especially at night so who is this or is it the T boys?

I tried not to be scared as I opened the door but I was shocked to see that strange girl I met yesterday.

Gracious! She is here,what is she doing here??

“Can…can I come in please?”.She said softly and for some seconds I was carried away by her voice.

She looked so innocent and harmless but no,I don’t go for looks.

“No”.I replied bluntly and she instantly became sad but still,she gave me a smile.

“Please..??”.She cooed and winked at me and I found myself opening the door widely for her.

Immediately she walk in,I regained myself and gasped realized that I allowed her in. I mean how did that happen? Did she just charm me? Who the hell is she?

“Thanks,you are nice”.She said and sat on a sofa,she stare at the bowl of spaghetti and hungrily dig in.

What? My food…??

I decided not to stop her,though I was hungry and angry, I just sat on another sofa and t-rn on the TV and surprisingly for me,she shivered,looking shocked.

“What is that?”.She asked and I rose my brows confused.

Who doesn’t know a TV?

“It’s a TV,okay?”.I rolled my eyes and she nodded even tho,she seem not to understand.

I just shrugged and continued watching the TV stealing secret glances at her.

****

It was 10pm now and I was feeling sleepy, I turned to the girl who was already done eating sometime ago.

“Hey! You should get going,I want to sleep”.I said and her eyes dimmed.

Wow!

“I have no where to go to,can I stay here only for tonight?”.She begged and I nodded,not being able to refuse.

“Fine! The guest room is at your right”.I said tiredly

“What is a guest room,please?”.She asked nervously and my eyes almost popped out.

What??

“Stop asking stupid questions and just go do what I said”.I said harshly and she nodded before walking away.

Damn! She is weird,who doesn’t know what a guest room is?

I sighed and went to my room still thinking about her.
