Jane woke up feeling pains all over her body, she had sustained some bruises yesterday from the struggle with that freak, she really needed to rest , there was no way she was going to work today, or better still get another job she thought to herself, she slowly opened her eyes and studied her environment, this doesn't look her room she thought, and there was no Mrs Whitney and Christopher in sight,then she remembered that she had not gone home yesterday she slept over at Gloria's house, she got up from the bed and found no one beside her, ' Gloria must be up ' she thought, she climbed down from the bed, picked her phone it was already past 9am "I really overslept" she quickly dashed to the bathroom to take a bath and she was done in less than five minutes, she came back into the room and her eyes traveled to a gown on the bed, she hadn't notice that before, gloria must have placed it there ' how thoughtful of her ' she thought to herself, she quickly dressed up and headed to the sitting room
she found no one when she got there, ' where did everybody go, how can there leave a stranger alone in their house? ', she was about to pick her phone and call Gloria when she heard footsteps, the person was coming towards her, she turned around it was Felix " good morning Felix" she said "good morning Jane how was your night? " Felix replied "it was fine thanks, have you seen Gloria?" Jane asked "Jane has gone to work she run in between jobs you know that right?", how could she have forgotten that not everyone has a easy life ' poor Gloria ' she thought "oh of course I totally forgot I should get going then I will call her later" Jane said "aren't you going to wait and eat breakfast? am preparing Mac and cheese" Felix interjected, he can't fathom why but ever since he saw he saw her last night he couldn't stop thinking about her, he really has a likening towards her, he really wanted her to stay and the thought of her leaving really pinched him in his heart, he had even offer to prepare breakfast this morning just to make her stay "oh am sorry maybe next time, I really need to get home my guardian and son must be really worried about me and I know my son if he doesn't see me he might get sick" Jane said, Jane words brought Felix back to reality "your son, you have a son?" Felix asked ' she has a son ' Felix asked himself in his head "yes I have a four year old boy, I will get going now bye" seeing she was hell bent on leaving and he knows there's nothing he can do to stop her "alright but please make sure to drop by next time" Felix finally said "I will try" Jane said and with that she stepped out of the house.
Felix sank into the chair after she left ' she has a son ' he kept thinking in his head "why didn't Gloria tell me that" he muttered to himself, he had ensured he secured some information about Jane from his sister before she left for work this morning, he knows she was as the same as him, there were both 21 well she will be just be turning 21 according to his sister, she works in the same club as Gloria and then she lives downtown too but she didn't tell him she had a son, ' is she married ' the thought came to him and he shunned it off ' no she doesn't look married at all ' ' or maybe she's lives with her boyfriend who his also the father of the child ' ' that's a possibility ' he thought again, "I need to ask sis as soon as she comes back" he said to himself, there was just something about this Jane girl that intrigued him, he had never felt this way before, her eyes her lips everything about her was just intriguing, a smile curved up on his face "I like you Gloria and am going to get you".
Gloria waited for a bus for close to 10 minutes before getting one, on the ride back home she just kept thinking about everything, she really needs to get another job, she can't keep working at the club and keep risking her life like this given what she had gone through in the past before, what if Gloria hadn't come to save her last night, she wished more than ever now that she had gone to school and bagged a degree, if only that monster had not raped her, with that thought a silent tear found its way to the corner of her eyes, then she remembered Mrs Whitney's word everything happens for a reason. ' this better results into a good one ' she thought.
