Chapter 2:A Bodyguard

"WHAT!!!" I shout

" Dad tell me this is a joke" I looked at him and he didn't say anything

" Really dad? You got me a bodyguard what do I need it for? Are we owning someone or something dad talk to me what's this all about" I stood up angrily

" You need it for protection Abby" Raymond said

" Protection? Against what? Is it that necessary that you had to get me a personal bodyguard"

" Yes sweetie it is" Dad said

I looked at the bodyguard and look at my dad and brother

" You even did this without asking for my opinion?"

" It's for your own Good Abigail"

" No it's not, dad listen to me I don't need one you can tell the securities to follow me around not a personal bodyguard"

" It's the same thing dear, securities bodyguard they are all same "

I look at him " dad seriously?" I ran upstairs angrily while running I heard Raymond talking to Charlie I stopped at my track

"Make sure she is not alone, always be by her side, she should be your top priority if she is harm you are done for you get it " I didn't want to hear Charlie reply I left

I sat down in the bed angrily and stood up

Talking to myself

" How could they? Arghhhh I hate them, A Bodyguard?" Just then Dolores entered

" Abby" she wrapped her hands around me

" Dolores " seeing her changed my mood

" Raymond called me and who is that handsome guy I saw downstairs"

" That's Charlie my bodyguard" I said feeling disgusted

" Wow, your dad finally got you one"

" You knew about it too?" I asked

" No I heard Your dad Mentioning it To Stuart the head security officer "

" Am not angry about them getting me one why did they get me a bodyguard? Are they hiding something from me?"

" I think so but it's very important you have a personal bodyguard because your father is popular and so are you there are many enemies out there who want to bring your father down" she said feeling concerned

" Alright, fine"

We went to the garden observing the flowers, I wanted to touch the sunflowers when Charlie hold my hand

"Am sorry ma, you can't touch that who knows if it's not dangerous" is this guy crazy? I obviously planted this myself how could it hurt me

" Ummm... What do you think you are doing?" I looked at him. Just then he realizes he was holding my hand and let go

" Am sorry ma" he stood a step back

" Abby relax.... He is just doing his job" Dolores said smiling at Charlie. I hit her head

" Why are you smiling? Get yourself together will you?" I said grinning

Charlie was following us steadily I could barely have some space . I told Dolores about my plans of sneaking out

" Really?" She whispered " what if the handsome guy found out"

" Well he won't find out unless we say it out so what do you say about tonight, we go to the club,bills on me" I said smiling

" Alright " we both laughed

Later that night, I was getting ready when Dolores called

"How is it going?"

" Judging from the silence I bet Charlie is asleep I will be there in 20" I hanged up and opened the door it was empty

"Yes finally I can go out". I tiptoe to the sitting room it was empty and dark, I was about to open the door the lights turned on

" Where do you think you are going to?" Charlie was standing still staring at me

" You are not sleeping" I asked. I was shocked

" Boss said you are not allowed to leave this premises at night and the time..." He looked at his wrist watch "10:20pm, why are you awake by this time? And why are you dressed like this"

" You are my bodyguard not my father don't question me like that, so Charlie I need your help " I walked slowly and calmly to him

" You can come with me to the party and meet girls that are your type, dad won't find out trust me pleaseeeee" I pleaded with him. He was persistent and finally agreed

We both went to the party,

" You can go sit with the girls you know"

" I am not leaving your side madam" he said coldly

" You can't watch me doing things".

" Prevention is better than cure" he said looking around making sure everywhere is safe. Just then Chad walked up to me and wanted to welcome me Charlie hold his hand

" Who are you?". I pushed him "

" Don't harass my friend. Chad meet Charlie my bodyguard"

" Bodyguard? Wow, well Mr Charlie you can wait outside"

" I prefer being inside, thanks for suggesting"

" I wasn't suggesting, I am ordering you to" Chad said walking close to Charlie

" Like I said , I prefer being inside " he looked at Chad from his head to his toes and smirk

"Ummm, Charlie why not go outside" I stood between them . He hesitated for a moment then left and stood outside the door

I sat down and took a sip of the drink poured by Dolores

" Charlie is one hard guy to convince " she said smiling

" Yes he is, why do you keep smiling whenever you talk about him?, don't tell me you like my bodyguard?"

" What if I say I do " place her hands on her chest " my heart beats for him" I laughed really hard and stood up wanted to pick up a drink

Just then, Chad friend,Fredrick offer me a drink I kindly refuse

" Don't be such a loner Princess, have fun" he was walking up to me

" I am having fun and I think It will be best if you step back" I stepped back

" Fredrick step away from her, she doesn't want to play for games you know "

" I think she want to" he grabbed my hand

" Fredrick let me go " I struggled to get out of his grip but he was too strong suddenly bottles shattered on Fredrick head, he fell down holding his head he was bleeding I raise up my head and saw Charlie, he was so handsome and cute

" Are you crazy? How could you hi....." Before Chad finished the word Charlie hit a bottle on his head . I scream

" Ahhhhhhhh"

" I will call the c....cops on you" Chad said angrily with blood dripping down from his head

" Well do so quickly, I have evidence of your friend harassing my boss daughter" he stood behind me and said " if I were you I would start walking to avoid seeing someone get killed" he voice was cold and I suddenly found myself walking. I got to the car, Charlie excused himself and came back minutes after and zoom off without looking back
