Allison got to the hospital with renewed vigour. She deposited the payment and asked the doctors to commence treatment. For once, she is going to sleep well at night. She was still scared but she was hopeful.
Allison entered Kylie's ward without the usual moodiness on her face. She even seemed brighter.
"Hey Kylie. I finally got the money for your treatment. I told you I would" She smiled a little.
"Just be strong for me okay and wake up soon"
Allison sat down and she finally felt all her exhaustion telling on her. In a few minutes, she drifted to sleep.
Allison woke up in her bedroom the next morning, got ready and decided to meet with her friend. She had sent Delia a text the previous night that they should meet up.
Delia has been her friend since high school, they went to the same college and went through a lot together. She and Delia tell each other everything but she don't know how to tell her about this because Delia has always been protective of her.
Inside a small restaurant, Allison is seen with a sophisticated looking girl dressed in a black jean and a leather jacket with her hair packed in a ponytail with deep blue irises peering intently at her.
"what... what did you just say? Calvin? U mean the CEO of Bruce enterprise?" Delia asked with an exaggerated excitement.
"Keep it down will you"
"How do you expect me to be calm about this? No way! How did you do it? I always knew that you were too beautiful for your own good. Do you know how handsome and super rich he is? So you are telling me that Calvin Bruce asked you to be his girlfriend? Somebody pinch me" Allison could only roll her eyes at her annoying friend, Delia has always been so dramatic
"Yes" She knew she lied about being his girlfriend but she couldn't bring herself to tell her that she is going to be his so called 'possession'.
Delia would have been jumping if it wasn't for the people around them and for the fact Allison is looking at her with warning eyes.
"whoa... And he paid for Kylie's bills?"
Allison only nodded
"I'm so happy for you Ally, I was so scared and I know you were scared too. I wish Kylie will just get up from there, she doesn't deserve this you know. she's too good for this world" She said with a sad voice.
Allison chuckled
"What's so funny?"
"You are really a drama queen you know. Just a few moments ago, u were practically screaming and now you are sad. Your ability to switch between moods in seconds still baffles me"
"Whatever" She rolled her eyes and picked up glass of wine to drink
"Uhm... Calvin wants me to live with him" Allison said timidly
"What..." She almost choked on her drinking spilling it out and coughing.
"Isn't it too soon? Have he taken you on any date? Live with him? No way! That's not happening, at least not yet. I haven't even met him. I need to tell him not to mess with you first. Don't tell me you agreed to this" She was getting annoyed
"Delia calm down. He helped me with Kylie you know. I don't know how I would have gotten the money if it wasn't for him" Her voice came out a bit sullen
"I'm sorry Ally. But if he does anything You don't like, just let me know" Allison chuckled, she knows that Delia can't do anything to Calvin.
"Yes mum" She said sarcastically
"So when are you moving?"
"Tomorrow"
"Tomorrow? Allison!" She said a little too loud
"Delia, you are embarrassing me, can you please bring your voice down?" She said in a low voice. "I'm moving in with Calvin tomorrow, don't make a huge deal out of it"
"Whatever Ally. I guess I still have to support you on this one. Now that you have a super rich boyfriend and Kylie's medical bills has been paid, I guess I will just to keep the money I saved up for myself" She said excitedly
"You saved up?"
"Yes. Kylie needed it"
"You are the best friend a girl could have Didi"
"I know, I know" they burst out laughing
"Have you told Kenny about it?"
"I have. He made a huge fuss out of it" She sighed "Are you still dating...uhm... I don't even know his name. whatever! Are you still dating him?" She asked trying to change the topic
"Forget about him, he's a douchebag. I even have my eyes set on someone else"
"You always do"
"Well, a girl needs to have fun"
Allison could only face palm. Delia's unserious relationships is nothing new to her. she would always change her boyfriends once she gets bored. She never dates with her heart
"You will need to open up your heart someday Didi. I know that you decided not to open your heart again after Mason but you really need to let go."
Delia felt her heart ache at the mention of Mason.
Mason is her ex boyfriend whom she felt hopelessly in love with. They dated for two years and broke up when he told her that he was betrothed to someone else and that they couldn't get married. She had begged him on different occasions to take her back stripping herself of her dignity yet he paid a deaf ear to her. 'You know we can never work out, my parents will never accept you. You have nothing a offer and Kate is an heiress'. Mason is from a very wealthy family and he is obliged to marry Kate who is an heiress to the Wayne's family's asset.
Delia hasn't been able to let Mason go. She still loves him. So she tried dating different guys to help her forget him but now at the mention of his name, her heart still aches badly
"I can't Ally. I just can't" She hate herself for loving someone like that. He has moved on and she's still here wishing he will come for her
"I won't open my heart again Ally. I can't bear another heartbreak"
Allison's heart sank at her friend's words, she stood up and gave her a hug
"You are going to find the right one someday Delia. I know it"
