To say I'm surprised is an understatement. I know he is rich, but I never assume he's this loaded.
Mrs Parker and I followed him inside and I took a seat far away from him.

I couldn't enjoy my sleep since the flight is just 1hour and 3mins.
I notice I was the only one that slept and Nick's eye is glued to his laptop, while Mrs Parker busied herself by doing God knows what on her phone.

We landed and Nick instructs the driver to take our luggage to the hotel. I was half expecting that we would at least rest for a while since it's still early but my joy was cut short as a car pulled up in front of us and Nick order the driver to take us to star gallery.

Surprisingly, all the workers at the Star Gallery are already present and we are welcome Immediately.
They didn't even give us time to relax, instead, we are boomerang with different issues that need to be addressed.

I work immensely with their team to help resolve the issue or misunderstanding as the case may be.

After hours of working nonstop, we can trace the artwork that was said to be stolen to a man who originally owned it, before he sold it.

He loved the art so much that he had to make another one.
Seeing different emotions that the image entails, the other company who happens to be the cause of the whole issue bought the second one, despite being informed that he had sold the original one to the Star Gallery, and he only makes a redo, due to his emotion the Art carries.

After talking to the artist who apologises for causing trouble over a piece of art, he proceeded that he will stand as a witness in court if the case could not be resolved within the two companies and have to lead to court.

After hearing this, we are rest assured that the man means no harm.
Nonetheless, he was made to sign a paper in case he changes his mind.

We agreed to sue the other company for defamation.

After settling what seems to be the issue, we decided to take a break and that is when I realize that I'll break down soon if I don't get an actual rest.

It is 5:00 in the evening and I still haven't eaten other than the cereal I had in the morning.

I feel so tired and it's starting to show in my features because I've been getting a lot of concerned look from everyone, constantly telling me that I look pale and sick.

I saunter towards the exit to take a stroll and maybe, find something to eat when I stumble upon a rock.

Why would any sensible being leave a rock in the middle of the road? "I mutter to myself."

I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard someone voice, asking if I am okay.

Turns out the rock is a man.

Looking at his appearance, he looks like he spends most of his life at the gym. I wonder if he ever gets out.

He looks so fresh and well built. His abs are obvious from his fitted shirt and I wonder what he will look like if he doesn't have cloth on.

Mmm... "Clear throat"

Once again, I forgot am still standing in front of him.

Hi, I greeted rather embarrassed for being caught.

"Hello," he smiles handsomely.

Damn, I am so engrossed with his hot body to notice he has a pretty face too.
How can someone look so perfect?

"Are you okay?" He asked, looking worried.

"Yeah, I guess, a little tired but it's nothing I can't handle."

"You should get some rest then."

"Alright, thank you."

"Are you new around here?"

"Yes, I came here for a business and I'll be leaving soon because we seem to be done already."

"Ugh, that's pretty sad. If you don't mind, can I have your contact so that I can show you around when you are chanced?"

*Sure!"
I handed over my business card to him.

"Where are you heading to right now?"

"I'm trying to look around if I can see a place to eat but there doesn't seem to be any around here."

"Oops, you should probably order for what you want rather than stressing yourself.
Where are you coming from by the way?"

"Star Gallery."

"Oh, you just missed a fancy restaurant on your way."

"Really?
I didn't notice any when I was coming."

"Yes, it is normal since you are not familiar with the neighbourhood.
I'm headed towards there, let me show you around."

"Alright, Thank you."

We talk about random stuff as he leads the way.

I can't believe I pass through this place and didn't notice such a beautiful place.

"Here we go," the handsome next to me said.

"Thank you so much, I can't believe I missed this place while I was busy looking around."

"You are welcome."

"Yeah, I didn't get your name by the way."

"I'm Kevin, and you are?"

"I'm Sarah"

"Nice meeting you Sarah"

"My pleasure."

We said our goodbyes and he went his way while I enter the fancy restaurant.

As I enter the restaurant, I am welcome by beautiful yet classy decorations.
I am about to place an order when I felt my phone vibrating.

It's Nick.
Sigh! After hesitating for a while, I picked the call.

"Hello sir"

"Where are you?"

"Mmmm, I'm just around the corner sir."

"Get back here in five minutes," He said and hang up.

I sighed inwardly.
What the hell is wrong with this guy?

Sadly, I have to leave this breathtaking place without having a taste of their food.

I entered Nick office annoyed but I try to be as polite as I can get at the moment.

"I'm here sir"

"Where did you go?"

"I went to check if I can get something to eat."

"So did you?"

"I was just about to place an order when you called sir."

"Well, you can eat later.
Meet one of my old friends.
He needs our help on some certain things so we would be staying here for a little longer."

Surprisingly, his old friend is no other than Kevin.

"Sarah! It's you again," he greeted.

"Do you know each other?" Nick asked.

"Yeah, I met her a while ago."

"Thought you said you went to search for food?

"Yes sir, I got lost and he showed me around."

"Oh, well that is even better. Since you are now familiar with each other, Sarah, he will hand over some files to you. You should go through it because that is what we will be working on."

"Okay Sir"
I took the files from Kevin and walk away from his office.

The moment I got away, I was summoned by the head of the gallery and that is how I spent the whole day, without eating.
Before I know it, it is 8:00 pm already.
Tired is an understatement for what I am feeling right now.

Finally, my amazing boss decides to grace us with his magnificent appearance and says we can now leave for the day. "Freaking workaholic, I mutter to myself"

The driver parked across the road so we have to walk to where his dumbass is.

What is wrong with these people?
Why can't he just park outside here for everyone's convenience?

Each step I take feels like am going to fall anytime soon.
I try to pull myself together as I use all my strength to walk towards the car.

How I cross the road alive is a miracle to me.

Mrs Parker seems to notice my effort and asked if I am okay.
I'll be fine, I just need to rest.

"You should ask Mr Gadhafi for a day off tomorrow."

"I'm fine, thank you."
We sit patiently while waiting for the driver to stop in front of the hotel.

Unexpectedly, he stopped in front of a restaurant.

"Why did you stop here?" I asked.

"Ain't you hungry?" Nick questioned.

"Oh!"
I looked at Mrs Parker and she signals for me to go out.

I walk slowly into the eatery and order Chicken noodles soup and red velvet froyo.
Mrs Parker orders chicken and waffles with an expensive wine while Nick remains in his car.

Mrs Parker asked if it's okay to eat here but I advise we pack it and head out since Nick is waiting outside.

I begin to burn up and starts to feel unease. I tried to keep it in until I get to my room but I can't help it.

"Are you feeling sick?
You look pale Mrs Parker said."

"Don't worry ma'am, I'll be fine."

It seems to be like Nick has been listening to our conversation because I saw him looking at me through the front mirror.

I think I saw a worried expression but it's probably due to my dizziness.

Finally, the driver stopped at the hotel park and we hop out of the car.

I took my keys from the security and walk as fast as I can, into my room.

As I was about to step out for a complaint, I tripped and was about to fall but fortunately, I was caught right on time.
It's Nick

"Mm...thank you sir"

"Get dressed, we are going to the hospital."

"Who is sick sir?
Did something happen?"

He looked at me and almost said something, but stopped himself.

"Meet me downstairs in 10mins, he ordered."

I tried rushing but couldn't help it, everything suddenly become a blur.
I felt someone carry me and then, I heard the sound of a vehicle but my eyes feel so heavy to open before darkness finally consume me.

Oops, I wasn't expecting that.
How can Nick turn a blind eye to Sarah when it was damn obvious that she needed rest.

I hope our baby get well soon😩😩
But then, what is wrong with Nick?
Why is he acting all strange and uptight?
Well... Y'all are just as curious as I am.

Thanks for reading 😍😍
