Chapter 13
We're standing in front of a building, Peter is thinking of renting a room from there, its not new or old, its just decent, I wonder where he will get the money.
"I came across it when I was hunting for food" he said, yea its not far from the hotel, I looked around the environment, its not bad.
"So I copied the agents number and called him he will come show me inside the room tomorrow, I just want to show you first" he said and the honor I felt for that was immeasurable.
"Its fine, but how do you expect we pay for it" don't get me wrong, am still with the idea we may still go back to our parents and beg.
"I have a little savings,my dad luckily gives us allowance, but since I had no interest in anything so I ended up saving most of it" he said, its easy to imagine Peter that way. Luckily I also have a little savings from working as a salesgirl, but my initial plan was to use it for my school, things are now different.
"I have little of mine" I said feeling proud since am of help, he turn and smile.
"You see, we will beat the odds together" he said nudging me, I smile, have he no idea how much he affects me with this little gestures.
"Let's go back for now" he said, I nodded,
"If I knew we would come out to the street I would've wear my cloth" I said as I notice people giving us a look, he just scoffed, he's someone that doesn't care what people think.
"Are you hungry" he asked, I wanted to say yes, but something in me tugged me not to, am now going to be more responsible,
"No' I answered and he shrugged and we both walked backed to the hotel, my every step is heavy, cause the more I walked the more night come, and as funny as it may sound am anxious am going to share a room with Peter. I swallowed as I picture how it will be, but the sane part of me reminded me of the condition and the type of Man Peter is.
" Tell me when you get cold so I can off the AC" he said as he tucked himself in, he is not fazed by my presence, and truthfully it angered me that I went to sleep with a very bad taste.
We paid for the apartment, we both contributed, ofcourse he did like 70% of the expenses, he also started a movie store along the street, he predicted it will be perfect since no one is selling it, luckily his prediction was right. We are seen as couple by the people, while it never bothers him, it do affect me, I cried when Lyd brought the message that Paul have travelled, Lydia is the only one that knows where we live, I vow not to tell my parents,
Truthfully I now hate them, for the way they abandoned me, it pains me whenever I see how Peter hustle everyday, and his not even up to 20, but my greedy selfish part wants me to cling on to him, his my only way of survival. I decided never to act on my feelings since he is who he is, I always bring him food for lunch, I want to kill all the girls that fawns all over him all in the name of buying film, even married women, it boils my blood.
"Why is it that only women buys film from you" I asked, hiding my jealousy, I brought him his lunch, I wanted him to start up something for me but he said, we don't have the capacity yet and I should focus on being healthy.
"Cause girls are always at home, so they need something to keep them busy" he said and resumed his humming, yes he still do that, and it gladdens me since he only do it when the food is tasty, so it means he always love my food.
"Still, don't they have anything better to do" I said handing water to him, he drank it and smile.
"That would mean bad market for us" he said. My heart always soar high when he says us, so I smiled.
"That's the smile I love" he said, he smiled too, as of late he says things like that, he is supper nice, but the experience was short lived as a girl walked in.
"I want, city hunter season 2" she said, I frowned immediately, he stood up to attend to the girl, I closed the remaining food, with hopes he will return to finish it, but he didn't, more customers came in, Luckily more of guys today, cause I would have murdered someone if more girl came.
