Work went they were soon all going home

"Bye.... sorry what's your name???" Ariel said while packing her things

"Oh my name is Leah, and yours??'

"Ariel, I'm so sorry I didn't ask earlier"

"No it's okay I'm supposed to be the sorry one"

"Nice meeting you I have to go now"

"Okay bye, see you tomorrow leah said while exiting the boutique

immediately Leah got out of the boutique her phone started to ring she picked it up

"Hello,have you completed the job??" said a cold voice on the other line

Yes, she seems very easy to get"

"Do not make any mistakes you hear, don't try it with me!!!"

"i will do anything you ask just don't hurt her please" she said as tears clouded her eyes

"Do what i tell you and it's going to be fine" he said before ending the call abruptly

.....

When Ariel got home she found out that the house was strangely quiet

"Mom!!"

"Mom!!!" she shouted but heard no response she kept on looking and when she entered her mom's room she was shocked to see her lying lifeless on the floor

"Mom!!!! wake up what happened" she said as tears started falling from her eyes

"Please don't leave me I beg of you !!!!"

"Help me please!!!" she shouted on top of her voice

They took her mother to the hospital with the help of her neighbours

"Thank you so much Mr Andrews" Ariel said after they got her mother to the hospital

"Its nothing my dear, please call me if you'll need any help" Mr Andrew said while leaving the hospital Soon the doctor came to Ariel

"Doctor is my mu..mm fine??"

"Yes but I need to see you in my office" she followed the doctor quietly after he said this they got to the office

"Sit down" she sat down and cleared all bad thoughts in her mind

"She has being diagnosed with cancer and high blood pressure"

"Oh my goodness, how come she only had high blood pressure but not cancer"

"And it has affected her badly because it was not treated at the early stage so it has gotten really bad"

"Okay doctor what do we do now?"

"We need to do a surgery and quick"

"Oh my God mom!!"

"Its okay everything is going to be fine as long as we perform the surgery" he said staring intently at Ariel

"It will cost you 1 million "

"Godness that's a lot of money how do I get that" she said sobbing profusely "Where? where do I go"

"Please take it easy, and I think you should find some means to get the money instead of crying so much I know it feels bad but we can still save her life" with this Ariel rushed out of the office

She called a nurse she saw walking out of her mother's ward "Nurse please can I see her she's my mom"

"Yes you can but please don't make any noise"

"Okay thank you" she said before rushing into the ward

"Mom!!" she said now crying bitterly than before, but unfortunately her mom couldn't respond she was unconscious "Mom I promise to find the money by any means possible, pls don't die I beg you, you are the only one I have left" now cleaning her tears she went out of the hospital "I will go to the boutique manager and if he doesn't borrow me I'll go the bank, but I don't have any property to give, God help"

She was thinking of all this and didn't even see a car coming towards her she was snapped out of her thoughts by the horn "Ahhhhh!!!!" she screamed

"I'm sorry miss I hope you are not hurt???" The driver said has he rushed down from the car

"CANT YOU SEE YOU ALMOST KILLED ME!!!!"she said almost screaming

"Im sorry okay please don't make a scene"

"Oh so I'm the drama queen now"

"Its okay I already apologized and you are not hurt" they kept on arguing but then someone came down from the car that stole both their attention

"I'm really sorry sir, I was just apologizing but she is not buying it"

"Gorgeous" Ariel thought but she quickly snapped herself out of those thoughts "How can I be drooling over a stranger, and I have my own problems"

"Young lady he has already apologized and this was partially your fault you weren't looking but it's okay you can go" the man that got down from the car said

"His voice is so breathtaking" she thought again

"Enter the car and let's go" the man said opening the door of the car for him to go in

"Wait!!, I'm uhm sorry I also wasn't looking"

"Its okay both sides are settled now"

"Hmm okay"

....

Tristan's house

Immediately he got down from the car and saw that beautiful lady his heart stopped beating he was amazed, he erased those thoughts thinking that maybe it was the first time he'll look at a woman for that long but he couldn't stop thinking about it.

She was a real beauty, he was snapped out of his thoughts when he heard his phone ring

"Heyy" he immediately recognized the voice it was his friend Noah, they've been friends since little and they didn't lose contact since childhood

"Thank you for not calling" Noah said

"Ahh you know how things are and you also didn't call you know"

"But I'm doing that now" The both of them started laughing

"So how's work?" Tristan asked

"All is in order, when should we meet up for a drink or two?"

"Tommorrow I think I'm not so busy tommorow"

"Okay tommorow then bye" Noah said before ending the call
