Chereads / The Art of Paying Back / Chapter 9 - Who is he?

Chapter 9 - Who is he?

After taking a long shower Sam exited her room and went to the kitchen to satisfy her hungry stomach. Unlike every beauty, Sam likes, no, loves food and never restrain herself to keep it in control. Annie was watching her every move like she could see through her soul. Sam felt uncomfortable under by her gaze and sighed.

"Alright, shoot me. I'll try to answer honestly." Sam waved her hands and Annie practically fled to her side and her eyes filled with hunger for answers.

"Who is he?"

"What does he do for a living?"

"Where do you guys met?"

"How did you two met?"

"Is he the hero who saved the damsel in distress?"

"It should have felt great, doesn't it?"

"Wait, is he one of those rich hippies? If yes you're not allowed to see him."

"I won't let another scum to hurt my babies heart ever again"

"He's handsome. Looks rich, elegant, perfect gentleman but how much of a good kisser was he."

"Wait, did you guys kiss?"

"Did he ask you out for a date?"

"Tsk.. tsk.. how stupid of me. I saw him whisper something in your ear and you blushed which means he did asked you out and said something flirty for you to go all red."

Annie rambled on and on and on for 10 minutes before she came to a stop and her eyes twinkling with excitement.

Sam stopped eating her sandwich and decided to satisfy her friend's thirst for gossip first and then her poor hungry beast.

"His name is Ben. We met on the street when Ann broke up with me. He saw the whole break up scene and yes, he is the hero who saved this damsel in distress."

"He is a physiology professor works in the nearby university. He looks rich and drives and expensive car but I feel like he's different."

Sam decided to skip the bar scene and the holding hands part for private reasons. She felt those memories are only for them to know and to rejoice.

"What about your kiss?" Annie licked her lips when she said this which made Sam to roll her eyes.

"No. No kisses. He would pick me up tomorrow morning. There is a place he wants to take me to."

"Aww... How sweet. Now, this is how a guy should approach a girl. Just because he proposed you in front of whole college doesn't mean he truly loves you" Annie said the second part with full hatred.

"Alright. Stop talking about him, I don't want to hear his name again in my life."

"Atta girl" Annie laughed ear to ear.

"I am gonna sleep. I need it very much now."

"Yeah you do. You wanna look good for your date tomorrow" Annie winked at Sam.

Sam rolled her eyes at her and left for her room. She threw herself on the bed and sleep took over her the moment her head hit the pillow.

Whether it was because she always knew that this break up would happen or because she felt like she had found a new lease in life, she slept peacefully after a long time.
