Chapter 6: Just call me Ryan

" That is Mrs Walter. " Trina whispered.

" Oh.." Meble covered her mouth in shock. " What is she doing here ? " She asked.

" She wants food. All kinds of dishes. " Trina whispered.

" Then go get them ready. " Meble said and went where Ryan was seated.

" ..I am..Good afternoon Madam. " She greeted .

Ryan looked up at her and noticed the resemblance with Trina. " You must be Trina's mother. " She got up to shake hands with her.

" Yes Ma'am. " Meble said.

" We are almost agemates. Just call me Ryan. " Ryan said.

" Huh..What a pleasure. I am Meble. " She said.

" I am so happy to meet you. This is Candy. " She said introucing Candy who had sat next to her and Candy smiled.

Ryan sat again. She was an aged woman in her late forties but she looked very beautiful and younger than her age. Her body was still fit and slim and in good shape. Today she had applied makeup and looked younger than when Trina first met her at the hospital because she had turned pale.

Meble was in the same size and height but looked older.

" Let me attend to the other customers. " Meble said and excused herself and this is the point when Trina returned with a tray full of different dishes and put on the table before Ryan one by one.

" Mrs Walter, This is all we had for now.." she said.

" They smell good. I am sure they are delicious. " Ryan said.

Trina just smiled and she watched Ryan have her first spoon.

" Indeed they are nice. " Ryan said.

" Then enjoy your meal. " Trina said and was about to leave when Ryan said.

" Are you busy ? "

" I was somehow. "

" But your mother has attended to most of the customers. How about you sit down and we talk while I eat ? " Ryan asked.

" But..."

" Mrs Walter came all the way to see you. Please have a seat ! I will be helping your mother with work. " Candy who had sat next to Ryan got up and left.

Trina sat down opposite Ryan who was enjoying the meal.

" Have you received your money yet ? " Ryan asked.

" Which money ? " Trina frowned.

" Didn't you ask Romeo to give you 10 Millions ? " Ryan glared.

Trina chuckled in disbelief. So he had gone ahead to tell his mother.

" Mrs Walter, I am sorry to say this but your son is so annoying. He thinks that I wanted money so he was giving me 3millions. I only talked of the 10million times get rid of him " Trina explained

" So ...he didn't apologize to you ? " Ryan was surprised

" I don't think that he is of that kind. I don't even need his apology. " Trina said.

" Oh, I am sorry Trina. " Ryan said.

" Its okay Mrs Walter. It's not your fault. " She smiled.

" You are so kind Trina. Where does your father work from ? " Ryan asked.

" He passed away when I was a little. " Trina said.

" Sorry about that. Your mother must have struggled to raise you as a single mother. " Ryan said but Trina didn't answer.

" ..I am...we didn't finish our talk last time. I would really like to do something for you in return. " Ryan said.

" There's no need Mrs Walter. I told you already. " Trina insisted.

Ryan sighed. " I want to apologize my son's sake once again. I didn't raise him well. "

" No Mrs Walter. You are a very good mother. " Trina smiled and Ryan laughed.

" This food is so delicious. I wish I could have a taste of it everyday. " Ryan said.

" Hmmm..Our restaurant is so cheap. You can't keep coming here. Can you ? " Ryan asked.

" Of course I could but sometimes I get busy with work. " Ryan said and pulled out a note of fifty thousand.

" Here's the money , Keep the change. " She said.

" Huh..You gave only consumed food for fifteen , I can't take all that balance. " Trina said

" Just take it as a token. I am..I should leave.." Ryan said and got up to leave.

She went to Meble and said. " You guys are really professionals. I can't wait for the day I will come here to eat your food again. " Ryan said

" You are always welcome here Ma'am. " Meble said .

" I told you to just call me Ryan. Have you forgotten my name already ? " Ryan asked making both of them to laugh.

Candy and Trina just looked on. " Okay, You are always welcome here Ryan..." she said.

" Okay...Candy lets go ! "

After this they left. Trina sighed deeply as if she had been in a long marathon.

" She's really a good beautiful and very beautiful for age. You may think she has never given birth before. " Meble said.

From there Ryan went directly to the Walters Hotel quarters. Romeo was busy with some work on his computer when Ryan entered as usual without knocking.

She saw him busy and went to sit in the parlor which was vast and made or three long couches and one arm chair.

Ryan pulled out her phone as she waited for Romeo to finish whatever he was doing.

He came to her after a couple of minutes.

" Mom, What brings you in the middle of my work ? " He asked.

" Why haven you sent the money you promised Trina ? " She asked sternly.

" So you think that I will that stupid girl all the 10m ? " Ryan knocked his head the moment he said this and groaned in pain.

" Mom ! why do you always torture me ? " He asked touching the knocked spot on his head.

" Because you are always causing me trouble " She said.

" Fine, I will give it to her. " He said.

" No, I came to talk about our new Hotel . " Ryan said.

" What's with it ? " Romeo asked.

" Leave the restaurant in my hands. " She declared.

" What are you going to do with it ? " He asked.

" I am buying it with my own money. " She said

" Buying it ? You already have shares in ..." He was saying when Ryan cut her midway.

" I said I am buying it . " She repeated herself.
