Chapter 19

"Ah Ah, you look like crap Derek, what happened?" Chidimma said helping him take off the oversized cleaner's overall.

Derek had been contemplating whether to fully trust her or not.

"It's a long story Chidimma; One you may not want to be bothered with."

"If it's too long, then cut it short, I'll be obliged to help and I don't even remember telling you that I'm in a hurry to go somewhere. It's Dubai, you've got to relax." She urged him and led him to one of the soft couches in the apartment.

"Can I have a drink?" Derek said. He was so tired.

There was also this soothing rosy scent in the atmosphere.

He relaxed a bit after the marathon and tries to think.
