236: Single AGAIN!

Seated in the most serene environment, Rose had his white shirt folded up on the sleeves, he had just been picked up from school because of the lunch meeting they are supposed to have with Damien. He threw glances here and there and then looked at Davids who was busy on her laptop trying to scroll up and down with a serious look.

"Are you seriously going to work right now?" Asked Rose. 

"Just one minute Rose," said Davids without looking at him.

Rose got bored and kissed his teeth getting Davids' attention. Folding his tablet and closing his phone he looked at Rose who was now goofy and held his chin with his hands. 

"Sorry, I had not finished some work, I won't be working now," said Davids trying to cheer him up.

"Next time, don't bring office work into a restaurant, I also left class, maybe I would be dealing with a kid explaining to me how many cars they have and how they are going for a vacation on Friday," said Rose.

One thing you don't know about Rose, he doesn't boast about anything. He prefers to let things the way they are and doesn't care.  As much as students his age tend to boast, he doesn't love doing that. Though he has lots in his possession, Davids always told him that there is no reason to show off but can enjoy what you have.

"Are you sure they are not trying to seek attention?" Asked Davids.

"Maybe, they rarely have interesting stories, if not about Minecraft or roadblocks those stupid games, then they have nothing," said Rose.

David's nodded listening to him. 

"What about those two bullies, who usually try to get on your nerves?" Asked Davids.

"Well, the sister is kinda cute and the brother doesn't talk much but mainly talks with it comes to bullying me. One thing about the sister is that she knows much about business, looks like her father welcomes her to some business meetings," 

"Wow, that is great, you can maybe challenge her to an online game and if you beat her at the game, then you have an opportunity but if she beats you, then she gets a chance to bulky you forever."

That was a suggestion that Davids had in mind. You gotta give your opponents some things to do rather than just bully you.

"Are you sure? Like I can win that and she gets to respect me every day you know," said Rose cheerfully.

"Yeah, just challenge her in your group chat and invite other people too, it will be an online game so don't fear anything," said Davids.

                  "Good, I will do that after this meeting."

They kept conversing and catching up on Rose's classwork and school activities. 

It didn't take long before Damien announced his presence. 

              "Man, you are big!" Said Damien looking at Davids.

They haven't met for so long, ever since Davids was released because he was on a trip trying to advertise his media house around the world. 

"You don't look bad too, your voice though, you feel my base is still the same so I guess I haven't changed that much," defended Davids looking at Damien again.

"Damn, trust me, girls here are falling for you if you haven't noticed, and I bet you are getting laid tonight, what do you think?" Asked Damien.

Davids pushed him over and walked over to the girl who was coming straight at them. Raising his brows, she looked at Damien before looking at the girl who was walking in front of them.

                           "What the fuck dude?" Asked Davids.

"What do you mean, that's my girl, she went to take a pee," said Damien standing behind Davids.

"No, I mean what the fuck, this is a copy of Clara. Her blond hair and the looks, what's with you, are you still obsessed with Clara to get a girl with the same looks as her?" 

Damien didn't get an opportunity to reply because the lady was in front of them and walked straight to Damien giving him a peck on the cheeks. 

Davids still couldn't believe what she was seeing, it was like she was seeing Clara in front of her, the only difference between this lady and Clare is that Clara had these cute black eyes unlike this girl with dead eyes, they don't look like they love anything, all they look like is a woman is determined to extort you, her crooked nose shouted botox.

She walked to Davids, trying to hug her but Davids quickly let out her hands for her to shake.

                    "Hello, I am Lindsey."

Her hands were lazily hanging but Davids didn't look like she was interested in her. She was lingering long while trying to lift her midthigh dress but Davids was not buying it.

Rose cleared his throat and walked in between the two, disrupting the glances that were going on there.

"Hello, I am Rose, you must be Clara, Damien's boyfriend, this is my father, Davids. He looks cute, doesn't she? I guess you are wondering why I am using 'she' yet I am also saying 'daddy'. She is a girl so at least stop drooling on her like that, I will only allow it when I think you are good for her."

             "Rose, for Christ's sake, morals!"

She couldn't believe that Rose went ahead to say everything without leaving anything behind. 

"Who is Clara?" Asked Lindsey trying to sound all cool but her anger could he felt deep down. 

"She is a nobody, Rose has the habit of confusing people, so don't worry about her," said Davids quickly.

"Oh, the same way he has confused you for a girl? I know you girl, you were accused of rape but you got out of prison and now your girlfriend is out of the picture, I am still wondering who might have killed her or messed things up?" Asked the last on her bitch attitude.

Davids wanted to hit the table and throw everything away, but somehow, Rose managed to hold her thigh to calm things down. She smiled at Rose and sat upright looking at Lindsey.

"Do you have the habit of throwing words around?" Asked Rose. 

Davids was just looking g at her, she didn't want to interfere in anything and for Damien, he didn't look concerned. Maybe thinking of how the little kid managed to identify Clara from this girl. 

"Okay, guys Lindsey, shut it, stop with the attitude, he is a child, so stop competing with him," shouted Damien hitting the table.

"Sorry sir, I am not a child, I am a man and I can handle her attitude, one thing about her, just try to fix her nose, it might fall any minute."

Davids looked at Rose and shook her head to warn him. She knew very well where Rose got the savage words and replies from, Brian. He is the only one who comes up with those replies and you won't even try to say anything against him.

Damien raised his hands in defence and looked at Rose.

"So Rose, how is the school going?"  Asked Damien.

Davids raised her brows at Damien, she didn't get why Damien will start questioning a child of just going straight to business.

"If you insist, I have two bullies, actually three but I have been told how to deal with them so, I got it covered, nothing much apart from crying babies who are always stupid," said Rose.

Damien didn't ask anything further, he just nodded and signalled the waiter to come over.

"Good afternoon, what can I get you?" Asked the waiter.

Rose raised her head and started ordering but Lindsey interrupted him trying to order her meal instead.

"Lindsey, for fucks sake, just give the little man here an opportunity to order first, we have just taken some juice while coming," said Damien.

Davids looked at them and just shook his head, it seems like they didn't even agree on anything, they are just shouting at each other trying to get each other's attention by doing something. 

"Wait, are you guys in a relationship or you are a brother and sister because you don't look like lovers." Said Rose and sipped the glass of water that was in front of him.

Damien and Lindsey looked at each other and just kept quiet. 

"Good, hey man, can you get me, any good seafood some salad and a blended smoothie, of pineapple, apple and mango, just not avocado," said Rose when no one was speaking.

The waiter nodded and the rest of the table ordered. Lindsey seems to develop a disliking for Rose she felt like the kid was taking up all the attention. 

"So who's a child are you?" Asked Lindsey sounding irritated.

"That's it, Damien, tame your bitch, we can meet some other day to get the deal going," said Davids standing up.

"Davids come on, I was just asking this boy here a question," said Lindsey in her face Sparano.

"Lindsey, go home, now, get going, the driver will pick you up, just go home I will call you later," said Damien looking in front.

"Honey, I was just being good," cried Lindsey.

"We are done, just go home I will have everything delivered to you, right away so stop messing everything up," said Damien and he signalled his bodyguard to escort Lindsey home.

"So you are treating me like trash because of some silly friend who is a rapist? Let us see who will love you the way I did!" Shouted Lindsey as she was being escorted out.

                 "And just like that, I am single, AGAIN!"
