What goes around comes around chapter 28

Chapter 29

The next day " Oh!! GEEZ!!!" Melody groaned as she opened her eyes, feeling the weight of the fatigue that had settled in her bones overnight. She stretched out her arms and legs, the stiffness in her muscles reminding her of how long she had been sleeping. She sat up, her head spinning with exhaustion, and ran her hands through her bed-tousled hair. She felt like she needed more sleep, but she knew she had to get up and start her day. With a deep sigh, she rose from her bed and shuffled to the bathroom to get ready. Within a few minutes, she came out of the bathroom and headed to the kitchen. " Morning, " Melody greeted as soon as she entered the kitchen.

" Morning Melody, I've made your favourite coffee. " Samuel handed the cup of coffee to Melody with a smile on his face. Melody receives a cup of coffee from Samuel with a frown on her face. " What do you want?? I know you don't do anything for free, " She raised her eyebrows. "Tell me before I drink your coffee, I don't want you to blackmail me later. "

Samuel nervously ran his hand over the back of his neck, his anxiety palpable. " Y-You see Melody, I need your help with Mimmy. He said slowly." Please help me win over her heart, I really love that girl but she is stubborn. I've been chasing after her for a whole year and she keeps on rejecting me. Imagine. like come on, am I that bad that she would reject me repeatedly??!!!"

Melody swivelled away from Samuel and burst into laughter," Please don't make me laugh, look at you, you look like an unwanted puppy. " She shook her head emphatically, looking at the seriousness on Samuel's face. She stopped laughing and put on a serious face ." Okay!!!! Are you serious, I mean come on Samuel!! I thought you were the most intelligent man I know!! " Melody looked at Samuel who was quiet. " No?? "

Samuel raised his eyebrows giving Melody a glassy stare, " Melody, did you really have to make fun of me?? " He said, his jaws clenched. As I told you before, Mimmy is adamant about rejecting me. I've tried everything I can to win her over but I couldn't, I thought of asking my friend for help but she Is busy laughing at me. Like seriously, I did not expect this from you. "

Melody was mortified as she watched Samuel's cheeks flush with remorse. She had laughed when he asked for her help, not realising the magnitude of his request. She wanted to take it back and apologise, but the moment was already over. He was already angry and was already turning away, trying to hide his hurt.

Melody felt an intense wave of guilt and shame wash over her. She knew she had hurt him, and she felt terrible about it. She wanted to tell him that she was sorry, but she didn't know how. She felt like she had ruined their friendship, and she didn't know how to fix it.

Finally, she mustered up the courage to speak. "I'm so sorry," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I didn't mean to laugh. I didn't understand how important this was to you." She looked him in the eye and saw that he was still hurt, but also understanding.

"It's okay," he said with a small smile. "I know you didn't mean it."

Melody could feel the tears prickling in the corner of her eyes. She was relieved that he had forgiven her, but she still felt ashamed of her actions.

Samuel felt guilty looking at Melody who was about to cry. " Hey!!! Don't cry now. Why don't you help me instead? " Samuel chuckled.

Melody flashed a sad smile. " Okay. You see Samuel, Mimmy is broken from the inside, she had built an ice wall around herself. Her father killed her mother and he almost raped her, when I found her on the road she was crying with ripen clothes. That's the only reason why she hates guys so much, if she is trying to stay away from you I suggest you give her some time to get used to everything. " Melody explained to him, she wasn't planning on sharing Mimmy's personal matters but because of the sincereness she saw in Samuel's eyes she decided to tell him even if she didn't know the whole truth.

Samuel's heart sank. He didn't know what to say, he just looked at Melody in pain. He had always thought That Mimmy was rude, never did he think that she had gone through so much at a young age. He opened his mouth to say something but no words came out.

" Don't tell her that I told you all this, I don't want her old wounds to open up again," Melody said.

Before Samuel could say anything Melody's cell phone rang. She grabbed her phone from the kitchen table, she frowned when she saw an unknown caller ID, without wasting time she answered the call.

" Hello, Melody here. Who is this? "

" What!!!!! I will be there right now." She hung up the call.

" What happened Melody, why do you look so anxious??" Samuel asked when he saw the expression on Melody's face.

" Come on let's go Minami was admitted to the hospital. " Melody grabbed her purse and made her way to the door, with Samuel behind her.

30 minutes later.

" What happened to Minami? Melody asked as soon as she entered the ward where Minami was.

Pink could not even utter a word, she could only sob sitting on the chair next to the bed when Minami's lifeless body.

Mike mustered the courage to speak. " She was assaulted last night and they stabbed her and left her to die

"What!!?" Melody widened her eyes in shock, yes she wanted her to go through everything she had gone through but she wishes for her to be assaulted just like she was, she wanted her to learn how to work for herself and make a better future for her family and Kids not what happened to her, her heart broke into pieces looking at her lifeless body on The bed.

"That's what happened, the doctor hasn't started any treatment yet because the hospital bill hasn't been paid yet, and we have no amount of the money that is required," Mike said. Even though he was hurt by what happened, he knew for a fact that it was all payback time for whatever they did to Melody.
