"Where do you stay?? I can drive you home. Or do you wanna stay a little longer???
"There's no way I'm going home!!"
"Why???"
"Even my gate keeper isn't gonna let me in looking like this. Trust me this body isn't mine!!"
"Cut the chase young woman. What exactly are you up to??"
"I'm not up to anything I just wish you could believe me. I don't know why I look like this and I even think I'm gonna go crazy. This whole issue is making my head spin." Tears rolled down my cheeks hanging on my lips.
"I promise to make you stay here as long as you want but can you can help yourself and tell me the truth!! "
"There's no other truth to tell!!"
"So your soul shifted into this body??"
"I don't know." I shook my head.
He sighed.
"You look so convincing but I don't think I should trust you. Let's go have lunch, we'll talk about this as soon as we're done eating."
"Go ahead and eat. Even food frustrates me right now."
He starred at me for a while then he left.
First, how could my soul have shifted??? I never believed that could be possible or is this a way that nature chose to pay me back??? I know I was proud and I kinda admit that I was full of myself but this isn't gonna help. Living in this body is gonna totally ruin my career.
I feel so confused and I just can't help the tears as they flow down my cheek. My eyes swollen and bloody red. My face almost popped out.
"Are you still on this or you wanna have lunch with me?!" He walked in and yelled at me.
There's no point in doing this afterall, but I'm gonna make sure this body serves my purpose. My dreams of modeling ain't just gonna die like this!!!!
I wiped my face with my palm.
"Let's go." I said.
"Much better".
Dinning.
"Ain't you gonna eat?" He asked with a mouth full of noodles.
"Can I ask you something??"
"What's wrong with this body??"
"Nothing. You are just fine. Apart from the bruise on your left hand." He starred at me.
"Can I model with this body??"
He nodded in affirmation.
"Thanks." I gave a sharp smile.
Then suddenly he frowned.
"What's wrong?? I asked wondering why he suddenly changed.
"I just can't believe you are still trying to fool me! What exactly do you think I am huh?! A kind of guy that you can just fool around!!! I brought you to my house this morning and you stink of alcohol but I didn't throw you out because of that. You slept on my bed and now you are even eating without having a shower. Would Cora have done that???"
"I........
"Just shut up cause I do not want to hear anything from you."
Those words hit me so hard and I just could not control my anger.
"You can just tell me if you don't want me to stay in your house anymore instead of raining insults on me. Last time I checked, I didn't come to you to plead for accommodation but you brought me here all by yourself. You think I also like the way things are for me?? I have decided and I know this is a nature's throw back at me. I'll go live my life else where and thank you for making me feel like a piece of trash." I sobbed.
I got up and headed straight towards the exit. I was angrily walking away forgetting how I was gonna survive. I held the door handle then he stopped me.
"What do you remember from last night??"
I paused.
"I was having a drink with Shem and I think I got drunk and dozed off."
"Who's Shem?"
"A friend of mine. We work together."
"Was it at the same restaurant I met you this morning?"
I nodded.
"Do you mind if we go there and ask if anything strange happened last night??"
"No I don't."
"I think you need to have your bath cause you can't leave the house looking like this. I'll lend you a shirt and a pair of trousers that fits you."
