THE GOLDEN CARD 2
I woke up the next morning feeling excited. I quickly took my bath and got dressed ay went downstairs. I was greeted by the maids cleaning the house ' good morning Miss Arielle". " Good morning" I replied and headed for the door, " Good morningMiss Arielle breakfast is Served" Luka said as she walked up to me. " Don't worry Luka, I'll eat at my mom's place". I replied and s out.
I got into the car and the chaufeur drove off. I brought out my phone to call Shyla and inform her that I was on my way but her number wasn't connecting. I sighed and looked outside the window, the estate was like another world entirely, only the most wealthiest men could afford to live here, it had everything built inside for the residents to make use of. Banks, eateries, boutiquues, fuel stations schools. They had the best of all this things. After about thirty minutes drive we finally reached the estate gate, we left the estate and drove for an hour and thirty minutes before we finally got to the neighborhood where Shyla and my mom lives. It was a quiet neighborhood, the people that lived there may not be billionaires but they were successful in their field of work. They were sincere and hard working people
When Shyla was still working for me, she always told me of about how hard working her neighbors are. As soon as we got there, I called Shyla and this time she picked. " Hey what happened to your phone I've been calling!" I exclaimed.
" oh so sorry about that" she said. " Anyways I'm in front of the house, come open the door" " for real?!" Shyla shouted in excitement. The door opened and Shyla rushed out, she jumped on me and hugged me tightly. " Ari, I've missed you" she said and drew me in for another hug. " I've missed you too" I said and returned the hug. "You're gonna suffocate me to death" I said and freed myself from her arms. We both laughed and went into the house.
As soon as I entered I saw my mom cooking in the kitchen. She was backing the door so she didn't see when I came in. " Mom" I shouted in excitement, she turned around to face me " Arielle my baby" she said and I ran to hug her.
I was so happy to see her so happy. she told me about her plans of opening a restaurant and how she has been learning so much on the internet. I really felt happy and satisfied. She told me she feels fulfilled because she's finally chasing her dreams. after so many years of living for someone else, she's finally living for herself and doing what she wants to do.
After the food was ready, we all ate and rested, then we went the mall. We visited the SPA, saw a movie, then we went for a shopping galore, we bought clothes, shoes bags from the best brands. It was really a fun day as we took pictures and made short videos of everything we did. After shopping, we went to the pay point to make payment. All the things we bought were calculated and the amount was so huge, such that if it's deducted it will definitely shake the account. I swallowed hard as the money was deducted from the card. Shyla and my mom gave me a look that says " are you sure it's ok to spend so much money in one day?. but I gave them a reassuring smile. just then I received a call from Drey, I swallowed hard as I picked the call. " he..llo Drey " . " did you just buy at whole estate?" Drey asked over the phone.
