                             CHAPTER ONE









They say that, the only thing that humans don't have control for, is the mere feeling of liking someone. For me I couldn't help but agree more, I the person who is known for being rude, arrogant smart and heartless, had met a woman who is complete opposite to me.
I met Terry at the airport, while coming from United States. "Excuse me sir!" While wearing big sized trousers and a cap and on her hand she held a camera directly on my face.
'What?' I replied rudely. "Can I take a picture of your bag?''
"Why would I let a stranger take a picture of my bag?'' I couldn't understand how a daring girl she was.
"Oooh! Am sorry I didn't introduce myself am Terry , I design bags",while behind me taking photos of my bag.
'Do you always do this to people you don't know', I asked while still amazed by her. "Yes if I see a new design I'll do anything, to get close to it. Can I open it? I want to take a look inside ''.
"No way! Enough! this is harassment!"I replied very angrily, because I had to get to the office. 'Sir please', while following me and shouting from behind ,I couldn't help but get furious. I assumed her and walked straight to the exit, where I found my secretary John waiting for me.
"Block that crazy woman" ,I said to John ,as she was approaching me while running.
I got into the car but I was left with the curiosity as to why a designer was very untidy and used informal language to someone she didn't know. On our way I realized that I didn't have my wallet, my first suspect was crazy Terry.
John !find that woman ,I said to John angrily.
"Why boss'', he replied with a small voice. "She stole my wallet!, that ...that crazy girl dared to steal from me? Huh! Find her, and bring her to me.''
'Ok sir', replied John. I arrived at the office as I had to meet my father .
'ooh!,Your back welcome !',those were the first words that my father said after meeting his only son in 8yrs,icouldn't understand why my father had always been so cold to me, no matter what I did it was just never enough for him. "Yes am back", I replied waiting for another bomb. "Ok go home and greet your mother she's been waiting for you since morning." My father was the only person who always made me feel that am worthless without him, I couldn't help but to always run away from him but he always managed to make me go back, either making the people close to me suffer or making them run away from me. but now I was back ready to start working again from the company . I picked my bag and left for the bar , when suddenly the John texted that they had already caught the crazy girl . "Take her to the police station, then I'll meet you there in five minutes," I replied via text.
'I swear, I didn't take his wallet!', as I was entering the police station I heard her voice talking .I walked slowly, as I was listening to her explain all the things she did to me. 'Here! ask him!' as soon as she saw me approaching them.
'I didn't do anything to him, am telling the truth!' she kept explaining her self, but nothing she said could justify her.
"Miss, listen here, take everything from your bag and drop them here, then you can prove yourself'' the police officer in charge suggested to her.
'Ok', she replied confidently. Before she dropped her staff ,a pickpocket thief from the airport was brought in, and among the staff he had stolen was my wallet.
"Sir isn't that your wallet?" ,John asked while pointing at it .
"Yes it is!",i replied ,I couldn't help but take it and leave there in a hurry as I had been embarrassed.
The next time I met crazy Terry was in my company as we were interviewing for new designers, for a new project that was formed from our company the Williams and son and the Jones company joint together.
"Can you come here for a second" she held my hand directing me inside the women's' bathrooms, not noticing who I was.
'Hey! What do you think you're doing? Huh! ', While letting my hand go.
''I need your help! Hold this and start cutting with the scissors". I couldn't help but be amazed by her, the way she was running like a crazy girl all round the bathroom. 'So why are you doing this? Couldn't you do this yesterday? I asked her with always my curiosity to know everything.
"I did it ,but my aunt stole my samples, now I have no choice ,but to look everywhere or make new samples before the interview in 10 minutes time''.
"But why would your aunt do this?" I asked while still watching her wander in the wash rooms. "She hates me, because she believes am a burden to her ever since I was young child''. While she was taking my heart was overwhelmed by her and I knew that I wanted to get to know her more, the way she talked about her, she seemed to have gone through so much while growing up.
After a few days I met with crazy Terry. 'hi ,I can see you got the job', i complemented sarcastically. "Yeah...... thank you for your help" she replied.
"I'll accept it if you buy for me tea or coffee'' I replied to her.the one thing that always amazed me was whenever I was near her I couldn't get angry or speak arrogantly before her.
"OK ,let's meet at seven o'clock at the coffee shop two blocks away from here" ,she replied and left.
After a few months of drinking coffee, watching movies eating lunch and dining together, we had already started dating, I was so madly in love with her, but I had forgotten one thing ,if my father found out about us there would be big trouble. For me I had fallen in with the most beautiful woman .
On Tuesday 3rd 2012 ,I had decided that I was going to propose, when I received a call from Terry informing me that she was pregnant ,I couldn't help but be very overjoyed ,my time had come to start a family.
"I want you to disappear from my sons life ,here take this money it's enough for you and that thing you're carrying'' I couldn't bare to hear the woman I loved ,being treated like that and my unborn baby being called a 'thing'by my own father.
"Father !..stop it!'' I shouted from the door as I going inside his office,that's in the house.
'I'm sorry!, am sorry! While kneeling down Terry couldn't help but kept saying how sorry she was.
Stop it!.... stop! ......what did you ,do for you to say you're sorry ?" as I shouted at her ,she still couldn't stop saying how sorry she was, it ached my heart watching her being humiliated and crying because of me.
"get up",...as I held her hand, taking her out, but my father's bodyguards held on to me and threw her out of the house.
"Father ! I love her and I want to marry her!'', I begged my father.
"No she's not your level ,you will marry Tracy Jones the daughter of the Jones company",he replied .
"FATHER !.......i don't love her ,I don't want to get married for business, and besides she is carrying my baby"
"I don't care, you either marry Tracy ,or leave my house and cease being my son", he replied angrily
"Ok I will leave", I couldn't believe that my father could reach to that point of telling me to choose.But even though it broke my heart, to see me and my father reach to this point I still had to choose Tracy.
The following day i arrived at Tracy's apartment and found her crying, she was just fired from her job and given notice to leave the apartment in two days .
"Where will i go? what do I do?'' She asked me with her innocent eyes filled with tears. All I could do was hug her and tell her that it was ok, although I knew it was not ok, and my father wasn't going to stop until I was finished.
"I'll go to my uncle's house and ask him for help, as for you, go back to your father and ask for forgiveness marry that girl if possible but please leave me alone" she said as she was taking her staff.
"Terry please!, I left my father to be with you, please don't do this to me", but she couldn't even listen to me, all she could say was she was sorry and leave. For me life was meaningless without Terry, I felt like my heart was broken to pieces.
"Uncle please! Why are you asking us to help you , when you left the house didn't even care how we felt, now you come back pregnant ,and you expect us to help you? Why? Are you that precious? Leave!" her aunt continued to insult her while pushing her away with all her staff.
Terry's uncle couldn't help but watch his sister's daughter being treated ruthlessly by his wife. "Here take this keys and go to the family house in the countryside, stay there until you make a decision as to the next step you will take'', he hugged her as a meaning of saying how sorry he was. I arrived twenty minutes later, to her uncle's home, but she had already left. her uncle gave me the address, as I was about to leave ,he held my hand and told me to take care of her ,as he couldn't do anything for her. As I was driving, I decided to call Terry and inform her that I was on my way there.
"Thank you sweetheart", Maggie told Patrick while kissing him on the chick and looking at her ring, she was so happy as two of them had just been engaged.
"Stop it! am driving and I need to focus, we can continue our celebration at home, ok!" ye...a...ah Maggie replied disgustedly.
"Are you mad at me?" he asked her jokingly.
"No am not",she said it cutely ,like trying seduce him.
"Are you sure?", making himself way to kiss her. At the same time Mark and Tracy were talking on the phone as she had just alighted from the taxi. "look out!" Maggie shouted at Patrick ,as before them appeared a truck .while trying to avoid the truck he went to the left side, where Tracy was walking on foot.
"No...ooo.oo" shouted Maggie as soon as she saw a woman in front of the car.
Beep the car, she shouted as she was trying to hold the steering wheel with Patrick .But for terry who saw a flashing light and hear sounds of brake from the car behind ,decided to look back.
Aaaaaah! And the voice went dead. Terry.....Terry! Terry ............terry! Only the sound of mark could be heard from a phone that had slippered away from her hand.
