Sheila's POV.
I sat there looking at the man like a glutton who has seen her favorite food, I wanted to ask questions but to who? so I turned to Ben and asked,“Why? why did she have to do that to me?” He shook his head sadly, why is he sad?“Hey why are you looking sad whats wrong with you do you have to be sad about this small issue?” I asked.He looked at me, and said don't cry its going to be alright. I looked at him as if he was some silly person why is he saying I'm crying. King hands came to my face and I pulled back.“What is wrong with you guys what's with the sad face?” I asked.King removed a handkerchief from his pocket, to clean my eyes this time I let him. ‘Its not like I'm crying anyway' I thought.“Uncle you will still give her the scholarship right? you already know her results. ” said king.“Yes but her mother will have to agree, she's her guardian after all. ” said his uncle.“I will be her guardian from now onwards. ”King Roy POV.I don't know why she keeps doubting and not taking me serious, she doesn't look like she has some experience in love. So why all the doubts? Other girls would rather be flirting with me even if I was serious about them or not. I know there's something else I don't know about her, that's eating her up, but how will I get to know?I still held her hand as we walked to the car park, we didn't have to go far because my car was parked at the administration park. Ben left us there to get his motorcycle at the students park. I opened the gate for her as a gentleman would but she only sneered without a thank you.‘It seems I've got a tough fight ahead of me or maybe a war? but victory will be mine, I never fail, not when I'm serious. ’ I thought.I smiled and entered the car, I looked her way but she was seriously watching something I don't know out side.“What are you busy watching?” I asked.But she didn't mind me, totally ignoring me. So I tapp

King didn't know why but he felt proud that he had got her to watch him but he got tired of looking at the phone for that long so he looked back at her. She immediately retrieved her eyes ignoring him and taking the Malta to drink. He felt bored and asked her,“What course do you want pursue in college?” asked kingShe blinked for three seconds and answered, king found that cute and smiled.“English” she said still smiling.“Why English? you could do music and dance or acting you would be a good actress. ” said

She stood there watching as he went for his car keys with his car waiting for her out. He sat in the car for sometime waiting for her but she still stood there waiting for him to open the door for her.Everyone didn't want to give up so she went back to sit down and took a magazine to look through. After a while King saw that his message wasn't passing on as he thought it would so he got out of the car and went back inside.“Sheila aren't you going home?” asked King with a sneer on his lips.“I am why do did you ask? ” said Sheila acting oblivious.“I went to the car waiting for you to come but you didn't. ” said king.“Is that so? i thought you went for something.

What do I do to make things right? can she really not love me? am I really her daughter? I need to do something to forget these things. ” she said and cleaned her eyes.As she was deliberating on what to do? She heard a vibrating sound. That scared her and she started looking for the source.

King RoyI called the emergency center and rushed her to the hospital and called the police to act in her house before I got there. Every thing seemed so fast happening that I couldn't wrap my hand around it. I drove as fast as I could, we got to the hospital and they took her to the emergency ward.After an hour of waiting through the stress and emotional trauma, they doctor finally came out. He looked at me and shook his head, God that almost took my heart. I rushed towards him and asked of her condition,“Doctor, please tell me how is she doing?” I asked.“She's awake, but we will have to wait for the police for this is a police case. ” said the doctor.“Yes I know it's a police case but that isn't the issue here, how is she doing? How is her condition? I know she was poisoned because of the way she was acting. ” I said.“She will be fine, who are you to her?” he asked.I thought for a while and answered,“I'm her boyfriend. ”“I'm sorry but she lost th
Third Person POVThree people stood in the hospital room looking at her with expectations.‘Maybe she would give them the answer to the puzzle with what she knows' they thought.but she turned towards them and asked,“Where is my mother and where is Ben?”They looked at each other no one had an answer to that question. A few seconds later they heard a voice from outside saying,“Do not bother yourself to knock what's so special about her? ”But then they heard someone knock and the police helped in opening the door. Ben came in followed by her mother, she looked over Sheila and said,“So careless, if you don't care about your life, don't do it in our house.

Sheila POV.When I asked her about the security camera I saw how she panicked, what could be there to hide that made her panic? what she said hurt me deeply but I know she coming here was a great deal for her so I'm okay with she coming.“The security camera is available, I don't know if it recorded today. ” she said.“Okay leave it to us, we will access it and see if we will get some evidence. We will take our leave for now. ” said the police.“Okay please I will look forward to what you find don't hesitate to call me if you want to know something. ” said king.“Yes sir we will. ” said the policeman.They saluted him, it seemed like he didn't like that attention so he hurriedly held their hands and said it wasn't necessary to do that.

My mother wanted to ask about th
