Kahlan stepped out of the bathroom clean and neat, before she could apply lotion on her body her phone rang. Picking up her phone, she smiled seeing the caller "Kay! don't tell me you are still in bed?!" before Kahlan could say anything, she heard a shriek from the other end of the call. Taking the phone away from her ear she hissed "can you not shout whenever you call me, your voice is loud Mia" The cheery Mia wasn't affected by Kahlan's rebuke, she continued "oh your voice doesn't sound like you have just woken up! hahaha! that's good....very good" Kahlan was speechless, this girl has gone crazy. "what do you want anyway, I have to meet someone" she said with a smile, sitting on the bed. "oh you are meeting someone, who is that... Have you forgotten we are to meet with the girls today to have fun" Mia fell silent before screaming again "Hope you are not meeting that scumbag!!!!" "what scumbag Mia! Leo is not a scumbag he has a name! a name! and besides why do you keep insulting my man" Mia laughed in anger, she was really angry this time "I knew it...you blockhead! what is your brain made of! fish?!! you...you leave our girls funday to meet that bastard. Did you ask him where he has been for two weeks now huh?! ignoring your calls and your texts and suddenly pops up to tell you to meet him?!" Mia's angry voice shook Kahlan eardrums. She wanted to puke blood how dare that bastard think he can come and go from Kahlan's life whenever he wants to. She really wished she could strangle him. "Enough Mia" Kahlan's voice was firm "I have told you not to call him that, Leo is a good man. He really is...I don't know why you hate him" "A good man you say? A good man... yet with his influence and wealth can not help you leave that terrifying place you are living in. Leo is from a powerful background and can get you the education you want with the wave of his hands, you have always dreamed about being a model yet he can't help you but allows you to continue suffering. what kind of boyfriend or love is that. I rather not fall in love" Mia snapped "Mia, he says he wants me to grow on my own." "haaaah!!!! no! my friend is gone, what has that man done to you... Kahlan if you meet him don't consider me as your friend anymore!" she said hanging up "Mia? Mia!" listening to the beeping sound, she dropped her phone and sighed.
At the other side Mia had just dropped her phone sulking "what's wrong Mia? she's meeting with Leo?" A young man in his early twenties with a strong Italian accent said by her side. "Yes cousin! Can you imagine that! That damned man has been making Kahlan cry for the past two weeks. She went to his house to find him but was chased by the butler. Gosh! I'm so angry!" The man frowned, he knew Kahlan she was going to meet him...she was head over heels in love with him. His heart clenched as sadness washed over him, Everytime he felt he had a chance Leo always appeared spoiling things for him. "Cousin! I'm really going to get angry with Kahlan this time, why does she love getting hurt" Mia's cute face scrunched up with hate. "I can't believe Kahlan is going to miss today of all day just to meet that pig" The Young Man stood up walking gently to sit by Mia side on the bed "Mia, respect Kahlan's decision... even if you don't like Leo, he is the man she has chosen for herself you can't change that" He looked grave and serious, he wasn't sure if he was talking to himself or Mia.
