Chapter 41 - WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

Skylar is busy playing with her food when she is interrupted.

Daniel: Hey, can I join you?

Skylar: Do as you please , who cares?

Daniel: Woooooo, seems like someone is in a bad mood today!

Skylar: Not me.

Daniel: Who else is here except me and you ?And am guessing the reason for all this is my dear friend Alfred isn't it?

Skylar: Do you think that everything is always about Alfred?

Daniel: When it comes to you i know that he is the only one that can bring out that grumpy side of yours.

Skylar: Since when do you know me so well?

Daniel: Since the time I realized that you are the only woman that surprises me with both your innocence and ferocity.

Skylar: Come on Daniel, every woman amuses you and what is funny is that you keep using the same introductory statement for each one of them you meet including me .But lucky enough I am not so daft not to identify one who is real and fake.

Daniel: Believe me when I say that I have outgrown that old me and all this change has happened all because of you.

Skylar: Cut the crap Daniel .By the way if you don't mind me asking, what are you doing here?

Daniel: The same thing that you came to do is what has brought me.

Skylar: Hope you are not stalking me?

Daniel: I am not . It's just by chance that I always meet up with you wherever you go.

Skylar:Chance happens at maximum twice but more than two times means everything is properly planned with the person responsible for it having an agenda he is up to.

Daniel: Okay! I must say you are smart just like a sexy cop you are!

Skylar: Shhhhhh can you zip that mouth of yours.

Daniel: What is with the farce?,there is barely anyone next to us so can you relax .

Skylar: Even the walls have ears you idiot.

Daniel: But I don't see any .All am seeing is trees around us and the lake view just opposite us unless you are saying you have got ultra invisible vision that can see what other people can't see.

Skylar: Stop! I don't want you to say anything because I might get insane just listening to you .

Daniel: Thank you.

Skylar: How about you order something of your choice and I pay for it .

Daniel: Oh! does it mean I can eat while seated next to you as well?

Skylar: What I see is that you already made yourself comfortable so I don't think you need any approval because as far as I know you whether I reject or accept you are still to do as you please.

Daniel: You see that is why you are not like the other girls because you do know what I am thinking about before I even let you know about it I think this time I have made the right choice.

Skylar: You are despicable always trying to make every conversation be about you .

Daniel: When I am with you I can't help but think of a way to flirt and maximize my time with you.

Skylar: Make your order please!

Daniel: I will have the same as you are having.

Flash back of how Skylar met up with Daniel.

It is one cold evening two years ago when Skylar is driving in her car when a long the road she sees a group of men all dressed in black with face masks exchanging blows with a fine gentleman all dressed in a black tuxedo but gauging from a far one could tell that the good looking gentleman was trying to stop these covered men from entering his car so as a good Samaritan as Skylar is ,she gets out of the car and in a glimpse of an eye all the men that are culprits are on the floor squirming and groaning due to pain . All the men are shocked to see that a young lady is the one who has got them to kiss the ground.

Skylar:( to the robbers) I am giving you one minute for all of you to disperse before I shoot .

Robber one: Stupid girl ,do you think we can believe you such a little girl. I must say you have got some good skills but that is because this attack you made was sudden.

Skylar: Police can never negotiate with the guilt criminals more so those it has seen committing crimes.

Robber one.; What is the evidence to prove your claims?

Skylar pulls out a gun from her jacket next to her right breast and that leaves the robbers astonished and before any further discussion, the robbers are out of sight.

Gentleman: Thank you so much, you have saved me a great deal.

Skylar: I did what any normal human being would do.

Gentleman: So are you really a cop?

Skylar: Yes , I am. But an undercover one to be more specific.

Gentleman: Woooww! luck has rained on me today! A lady being my savior and moreso a cop, I really have to thank the heavens for this beautiful encounter.

Skylar: Good there are still some people who know how to appreciate.

Gentleman: Do you mind me getting your number?

Skylar: Yes, I do because you are a stranger.

Gentleman: A stranger that was saved by another stranger who I can consider as a friend or even more one who would prefer to pay for the services rendered by another stranger so as not to owe anyone.

Skylar: I saved you out of good will so no payment is required.

Gentleman: But still i insist on getting your contact .

Skylar: 0888321478

Gentleman: Thanks.

Skylar: What is your name again?

Gentleman: Daniel

Skylar: Nice meeting you Daniel.

Daniel: And you?

Skylar: Skylar.

Daniel: A beautiful name for a beautiful person. Your parents knew that you would be an eye catching candy when you turn into an adult.

Skylar: Thanks for the compliments but I want to understand how you were attacked.

Daniel: Oh! Okay , so I was driving along the road when I knocked a person who fell to the ground.

Skylar: Wait, so you killed someone and here I was trying to help you thinking you were innocent.

Daniel: Where are you concocting this story from, I haven't mentioned about death yet.

Skylar: But death happens once a person is knocked . Logic Sir.

Daniel: Can you let me finish my story madam?

Skylar: Continue.

Daniel: I get out of the car to check on the victim but am shocked to receive punches from the so called victim and to top it all up just in those trees along the road we're his three subordinates who came over trying to enter my car since my car keys were inside and that is when you found us all fighting and beating each other to gain full access to my own car.

Skylar: Hahahah, it makes sense, you must have had a long day, go rest.

Daniel: Indeed, good night.

Skylar: Like wise.

But from that day, it's like Daniel became enchanted so he tracked Skylar 's number and begun following her whereabouts when he was free that's how he found out that Skylar worked with Alfred and about her feelings for him but he still has hope that he will get a chance with her.

Daniel completely changed within the two years and became a more understanding man with less female companions and all focused on winning over a cop's heart that sees no one other than Alfred. Although he is well aware she will be his and only his one day .
