Get Me Married

Chapter 50: Going into details

Her eyes widened at my pronouncement and she opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out of her mouth. I turned back to the house angrily and made my way back to my studies.

Samantha was slowly getting on my nerves and what was worse was the feeling of not knowing the woman I fell in love with before now.

As a kid, she was always around me, always so close, and we attended the same school together. That was till I started crushing on her, she was beautiful and any guy would have understood why I crushed on her back then. But she wasn’t only beautiful, she was kind, sweet, and caring. Always involved in humanitarian activities in school and always goes out of her way to save others.

I remembered that one time, I was coming out of the cafeteria when I noticed how the crowds were gathered in a place and went closer to them. A bully had shredded a girl’s cloth till she was almost naked and pictures were being taken of her. They laughed at her and called her so many names, it pissed me off to see how they could treat someone else and I had taken off my jacket to cover her. But before I could get to the girl, Sam had gotten to her and had covered her with a white sheet.

“You will be fine…” She had said to the girl who was shaking in fright. Then she turned to the people taking pictures and glared at all of them.

“The first person who would post a picture of her would have to pay tuition thrice, don’t dare me” she warned them and they all knew how much her words had volume. They knew she was speaking the truth, she had the power, her father had money and influence.

I remembered how she always went to social services, and always visited the orphanage. She would always give and was always kind to people, she could never hurt a fly yet his Samantha had changed so much. Samantha he knew would never think of kidnapping someone and covering up and would not say those things she said outside.

Her new behavior wasn’t only different but it hurt me, it hurt me so much that my Samantha was like a stranger to me.

I walked into my studies and the thoughts of Samantha immediately washed away from my mind.

“Ava… no” I warned immediately my eyes set on Ava who was playing with my computer.

“Don’t touch that, I work with this” I added and walked deeper into his studies. Ava smiled sheepishly at me and stood up from where she had sat behind my desk.

“What were you even doing?” I asked and check in the monitor, I couldn’t be so sure she hadn’t tampered with what I was doing.

“Playing boss” she replied and I turned back to her. I chuckled at her statement and shook my head before I turned back to the monitor.

“I didn’t change anything really” she ended and I quickly confirmed that she didn’t change

anything before I sat down. I turned back to my work and Ava sat at one of the seats opposite mines. She was still looking at me with a mischievous smile on her face. And I couldn’t help but

stare at her suspiciously, unsure of why she looked so mischievous. Something told me not to trust her at all. I turned back to my work and continued with what I was doing before I left to check on Genesis. Al first, it was so peaceful, you wouldn’t know that Ava was sitting just right next to me. I never knew that she could be so quiet but she was and I was really happy that she allowed me to work peacefully.

My happiness was cut short after a short time and Ava suddenly leaned closer to the table and started tapping her fingers on top of her desk. I groaned and raised my head slowly from what I was doing and turned to her. She was waiting for me with her eyes strongly staring at me. The moment my eyes met hers, she smiled again with that mischievousness in her eyes.

“Who is that lady I met outside?” She suddenly asked and I frowned.
