MY OLD LOVE
"I also feel sad about it." He felt like he was stung in the heart. "I promise to remember you someday, somewhere, wherever we meet again" She said as she leaked." " Anita..I ...am." he tried telling her he likes her and that his name was Austin and not tony but he couldn't." He didn't want to upset her more with it. "What do you want to say." She wiped a tear off her face. "I also promise to remember you someday." He said. Then later that night he walked her home. "Thanks for everything tony." "Am happy I met you."he said... She opened the door. "I promise to remember Anita." He shouted out for the first time to her....just then..
AT THE HOSPITAL...
She wakes up... Close to the bed was Austin who placed his head at the end of the hospital bed then she calls out his name. "Tony." "Tony." She called again... "He takes his head up and moved closer to her... "Sniffs, You remember?... It's me Anita." He said with a spike of joy in him. She stretched out her hand towards his face and smiled in amazement. "It's really you tony." Am sorry I didn't get to remember you." She said with tears in her eyes. "Get better okay, we'll get to talk." He calmed her down.
"Is she awake yet?" Betty asked Austin outside the room. "Yes for a while.. but had to make her take a nap again after the doctor came in to check on her." He said. "Presently, her mum is inside with her." "I feel so bad I wasn't there for her, those wild men hurt her Really bad." She said with tears piling in her eyes. "She will be fine ok." He consoles her. "You were there right? How did you know she was in some sort of trouble.." she asked curiously. "I overheard Bella and her friends planning to hurt her, today, giving some random person a call to do his job well.." he said as he squeezed his hands tight in anger. "I was just so late.." he added. "That witch,now she has done it, am going to teach her a lesson." She was so angered. "Uhm Austin, do you by anyway Know Anita?" She asked slowly.. "Yes she was my old love." He spat out. Betty stomach shrunked in as to what she's hearing. "Smirks..I couldn't even tell her my real name back then and tell her I like her alot." He added. "Now, I kept on wondering why she kept saying she must had seen you somewhere before." She said out. "She said that?" "Yes, she did." "I made a promise to her that I was going to remember her." He said. "Why didn't you tell her it was you when she started going to our school?" Betty asked. "I wanted to see if she could remember me." He answered. "And now she has." He said again. "Really, she has." She was surprised to hear that. He gave a lovely smile.. just then Anita's mum came out of the room.. and thanked Austin for his bravery and for saving her daughter's life.. "Thanks for calling the cops to get those wild men."she added. "Am glad I did." He said.
IN AN EMPTY ROOM...
Bella and her friends had a serious conversation..."I heard that wench was saved be Austin.." Lilly said... "He even got to call the cops to get those men arrested." Hannah added.. slams her hands together.." They couldn't do one job, just one job right" Betty said with so much rage, like her blood was boiling so much... "Besides how did Austin know she was going to be in such a situation?" Lilly asked curiously.. "He must have overheard us." Hannah said as she rushes to cover her mouth in a shocking surprise. "What, if those men exposes us." Stacy said feeling scared. "We'll be in big trouble then." Lilly said. "No, one is going to be in trouble." Bella said as she walks out of the room with so much annoyance.
AT THE HOSPITAL...
Now Anita was better...."Why didn't you tell me your real name?" She asked Austin.. "The funny is that I just didn't know why...I would have told you later on that I lied about it but it was too late. "That morning, before I left I kept on waiting for you but didn't see you show up." "I looked at you from a distance, streaming through so many hurting feelings, I couldn't get to bring myself to you with so much pain of you going." He topped that. "I couldn't forget you for a long time." She said. That made his inside boil. "But had to forget at some point in time."she said as he gazed at her. "Anita."Betty called out her name with so much care... "Am so sorry about this.. Bella and the other girls.... "The doctor said you be discharged home soon." He interrupted what she was saying. "Wait, Bella and the other girls did what?" She asked curiously... "Uhn, hmm." Betty beating around the bush. "THEY DID WHAAT?" She shouted out at what Betty said. "They set me up with those horrible men?" "Just because she thinks she can just hurt anyone?" She said bitterly. "Hey, hey Ani.. I've got this alright." Austin calmed her down. "I could have died." She added. "But you fine okay, that's all that matters, I will take care of this alright." He assured her. "Austin I've always wanted to tell you this back then and now... I like you alot, I love you Austin." She said. "Awwwn was that a confession." Betty blushed hard. Austin heart glorified...I love you to Anita.
AT BELLA'S PLACE...
"Aarg, why do my plans always get smashed." Bella said feeling so frustrated. "It was such a great plan."she added.
HER PARENTS... IN THE OTHER ROOM..
"Crazy man you drunk again, you took the money I kept in here." Her mum shouted out.
"Woman leave my house with your crazy daughter." Her dad shouts back at her.
"Aaarg why do I have such crazy parents?"
AT SCHOOL...
She had the guts to show herself in school after what she did too me... " Anita said bitterly.
Austin noticed how much she must feel seeing Bella. But she couldn't file a case on her either..
AT THE CAFETERIA...
He sat in front of Anita as he used his soon to scoop some food lovingly into Anita's mouth. Gush what did he just do.. "Everyone's staring at us." She blushed weirdly. "I don't care, you are my girlfriend after all." He said. That made her heart bubble so much. At the hallway the also held hands and looked like cute couples...
AT THE CLASSROOM...
Chatter! Chatter! Chatter! "Are they dating... they've been so close lately...they look good together... are they seeing eachother." They said just then.. Austin stood from his desk. "Everyone, Am in a relationship with Anita, she's my girlfriend and I love her, he looked at her shocked face..and smiles..."I love you Anita." He boasted. Anita wasn't expecting that from him, "Did he just make us official?" She asked. "Awwn my Friend is in love.."Betty said. Everyone in the classroom was amazed at what he just said.
AT THE HALLWAY...
Austin warns Bella and friends..."if you ever try harming Anita again or touching a hair on her head, you guys will regret what I will do to you. Count yourselves lucky this time.. He walks out.
"Finally school is over today's classes were fun." Anita tells Betty.
"Ani." Austin called her as he walked closer to her..."Do you have any plans today.
"Uhmm, nope I don't." She concluded
Would you like going out later.
"My goodness is that another date?"
" Yes, I mean you my boyfriend after all." That made them blush. "See you later my love." Gave a cute smile and went on.
"I see you going for another date uhm." Betty whinned with a smile.
"Yeah, you can call it that."..she brushed her hair to the back of her left ear.
"Let's be on our way, I've got to pick out a dress, I still don't know where we'll be going though, should have asked him." Anita said as she and Betty left for their houses.
