7 Chapter 7 - Take risk (1/2)
I was still in shock from hearing Mr. Davis offer for me. As I kept looking at his card and honest look towards me, I can help myself feeling unease.
”Mr. Davis please don't joke around?”
”Angelique, I ain't joking at all.”
”Why me?”
”Why not...”
His words struck me so badlythat I was feeling confuse and my head started to hurt. I was still sleepy and now I'm in a situation that my brain isn't functioning well. Last night was just a favor and I did not expect more. I was feeling light headed already, my vision started to blur and within the next second my mind just went blank.
”Ange... Ange... Ange...”
I can hear a man voice calling my name. My body felt so light and weak. I tried opening my eyes to see where am at. As my vision cleared I notice a man by my side continuously calling my name and woman checking on my IV drip.
”What happened?” I said with a drowsy tone.
”Ange... thank God your awake.” he said withtearful eyes as he hugged me with belight.
”You fainted from exhaustion and stress, I suggest you rest for now afterwards you can go home.”
”I see, thank you...” I responded as the nurse walked away. ”Boss, what happened to Mr. Davis?”
”Oh! well... after you fainted we drove you to the hospital. He was busy so he did not stay long but he did mention to me that you should consider his offer. He also gave me this...” as he took out the card that was handed to me by Mr. Davis earlier and looking at me made my head hurt again. ”You know Ange, I know your feeling confuse right now.But its not a coincident that both of you meet...” As he continued on explaining to me the reason how Mr. Davis encounter me and why he was there as well that night shock me. ”Now you know, he was suppose to check on Steven that night but who would have though that in the end it was you who took his breath away.”
”I see...”
”You know Ange... if I were you I'll take the risk. As you said you live your life to please other and ignored your own happiness. Maybe this is a sign that your faithed to be a star. Who knows you might find happiness along the journey.”
I did not say anything to what Boss said but I did give it a though, what if I did accept and how would my life be. However, all the out come that pop up in my head were all too negative. Fear of the past started to hunt me again and not long I started to feel the pain in my check.
Home
It was already past noon when the boss drove me home. Before I could even lay down on my bed I received a call from one of my friends.
”Hello...”
”Ange, are you free?”
”Kind of, why Jamie?”
”Me and Jordan are hanging out tonight wanna come?”
”Sure why not...”
”Alright see you at Bar 21.”
”Sure.”
