Chapter 5: A walk in the rain

I turned and turned around to see who it was that was calling my name but saw no one then decided to look at the car parked in front of me who I saw left me in shock, it was the man “boss” who just fired me, “Oh Dieu pas encore, qu'est-ce que cet homme fait ici” ( Oh God not again, what is this man doing here). As I muttered in the little French I could understand, I couldn’t move any further all I could do was stand staring at him, even while in the rain and shivering I couldn’t help but glare at his cute face.

“Miss Anderson what are you doing stand in the rain and keep staring at me like you have not seen me before or are you going to come into the and leave the rain,” he said as he managed to wine down his glass a bit due to the heavy pouring down of rain.

I looked at myself so soaked, drenched and wet by the rain and looked at the car, damn I guess it’s the latest Benz in town, even as much as I don’t know cars but this one seeing it alone you will know the car was very expensive, and I said to myself hey Cynthia this is not you so just move on, but I couldn’t help but stare at him, how stupid I am, he called and called but I stood like a statue then I guess out the anger he drove off.

“Fuck, fuck, fuck, Cynthia what have you done to yourself, you are such a fool,” I said to myself. Someone who has stopped to give you a lift and you stupidly stood and stared at him in a loss like you have not seen him or haven’t seen a cute and handsome guy before.

“But had I followed him, where would he have taken me, when I know I don’t even have a house to go back to,” I said to myself.

Then still standing there he reverse back, before he came again as he called on me again, “ you still standing there? Come on in and leave the rain for I won’t have to repeat myself twice,” he said as he pulls his suit jacket and folding the hands of his white long sleeves shirt, and I wondered what he was up to, surprisingly he opened the door, stepped out and stood for while allowing the rain to drench him a bit and then he walks towards me. I couldn’t help it, as the only word I could utter from my mouth was fuck me hard, watching him walk closer towards me, I could see his six packs through his pair of a white shirts, with his broad chest and his big arms this clearly shows he takes his workout, fitness very seriously, as he walks closer towards me and gripped me and dragged me into the car.

“Ehm, ehm sorry please where are you taking me”? I asked while shivering from the cold.

“Just shot up and don't distract my driving, where do you think I am taking you to”? He asked.

“I don't know if I know I wouldn't have asked,” I replied.

“By the way where were you going walking in the rain”? He asked.

“I... I.. I, was going to,” I said, as he cuts me short.

“Why do you always lack words and skip each time I ask you a question”? He asked.

“What me, no I don't do none of those, why should I skip some words,” I said while pretending.

“Or are you afraid of me, or do I scare you”? He asked.

“Why would I be afraid of you, nor be scared of you,” I said.

“Okay if that's the case then answer me, what were you doing in the rain, allowing the rain to drench you, you were shivering but yet you never wanted to take shelter,” he asked.

I couldn't just bring myself up telling him how I was been thrown out of the house and that as we speak I am homeless, but I couldn't just lie to him as I wonder how and where to begin, scratching my hair.

“I... I was going nowhere actually when you fired me before I could get home my landlady had sent me packing out from the house while leaving my stuff outside to be beaten by the rain,” I said.

“What that's inhumane, why would she do that”? He asked

“That's because I have been owing to her, it had gone for months now that's why,” I said.

“Even at that, she shouldn't have treated you the way she did, she should understand the situation of the economy, things are not stable," he said. “So do you have any place where you could stay or squat for the time being”? He asked.

“I don't that's why I was wandering in the rain when you saw me,” I said.

“Okay then will it be okay if I take you to my place, there you could stay for the time being,” he said.

when those words escape his lips, I felt cold shivers run down my spine, I don't want to leave with him, knowing full well, that this was how he acts, and much worse, his face was so scary.

"thank you very much for your help sir, but I'll manage somehow..." I pursed, thinking of what to say next, I know for sure, I can't possibly ask for help from my boss, so I'll just ask from the fucker, who's no one else but Sam, I'll just ask for help this ones, but I can't leave with my scary boss.

"I'll appreciate it if you could drop me in the motel, it'll be more convenient over there," I said to him, he stopped the car to look at me, I couldn't bring myself to say a word, I was quiet for a moment while trying to get my shits on the right track.

"I know that we didn't start on the right track especially when you came in search of a job, but the reason I had acted that way was that I hate people who shivers in my presence, I have just wanted to have someone who will able while in front of me," he said to me, I nod my head, towards him, that's how I managed to take one more glance at his gorgeous face, I just can't help it anymore, I just want to keep on admiring his godly features.

" I know what you meant by that, for that, I appreciate, but I prefer to sleep in a motel," I said stubbornly, he shrugged his elbows and said a simple.

"okay".

I don't know why, that simple word, was not appealing to me, it was more like, I wanted him to pester further, but since he didn't, his actions hurt me. I then decided to act unperturbed about the whole situation, till we reached the motel.

I stood in front of the motel, as I gulped because this is where my pride landed me, I don't even have enough money to pay the motel assistant.

I then decided to turn back, only to notice that he was still standing there, while looking at me, almost like he was waiting for me to walk inside, I gulped hard while trying to get my shits on the right track.

"Okay, I'll like to appreciate you for the ri..." I couldn't continue my sentence, not until I noticed him taking grateful strides toward me, he was having that expression, that showed nothing but seriousness.

" I know you don't have money, but why are you doing this?" his words were full of dominance and Authority, which managed to bring cold shivers down my spine.

" you don't know me, sir, I'm still fired by you remember," I said, I was almost burning in anger, this was the same person that wanted competence from me, but now he's showing as if he cares, I didn't bother to say one more word, before I walked to leave.

only to feel s very firm grip on my hand, " you are not not permitted to walk out of your boss like that" he said with so much authority that was already pissing me off, " just fuck off, because as far as I'm concerned, I'm no longer your employer" I said before I shrugged my shoulders to leave.

how I wish I had some money, I'll have gone to the bar, to clear my head off, from this messy job with my boss.

I always wonder, what's up with him, because he's always there to rescue me in my ordeals, could it be that He's stalking me?.

" I'll be going sir, thank you for the ride," I said, making my anger, even more evident.

he then let go of my hand, before he started taking steady strides to leave before he stopped walking to tell me the most overwhelming news, that I least expected.
