Chapter 13

"Well sometimes it's best to open up about your feelings. Like they say, let everything out."

"If I'm seen talking to myself I would look mad to everyone.". I said and he chuckled.

"How about I help you. We meet once in a while here. It would be nice for Jemima to know how you feel."

I smiled at that Idea. " I would love that."

"What's your name son?"

Should I tell him my real name. "  Femi " I lied.

I think he knew but he didn't say anything." I'm Dr Marx but you can call me Marx."

"I'll stick to Dr Marx. It's respect."

He smiled. " And I'll stick to Femi. It's your privacy."

"So what days will we be meeting?" I asked.

"How about Saturdays ?"

"Okay then but I may not be around for some-"

"I'll give you my number. Anytime you feel like letting your thoughts out I'll be available."

We exchanged numbers and I thanked him.

He asked me for a favour, it was about an Orphanage. After listening to what he had to say I told him what I have to do.

It's surely the right thing to do.

Ola p.o.v

"Why does that guy keep staring at this table?"  Rasaq said.

I turned my back to see who he was talking to. My eyes widened as I stared at the familiar faces except one- she must be his fiancee.

"That's the  Seyi."

"You mean the man that fired you."

"Well he didn't technically fire me." I said, noticing his eyes had not left their table.

He smiled and I turned to see Seyi leaving the table and heading for the gents.

"I'll be back Ola"

Before I could protest he had stood and followed Seyi.

God please let nothing happen.

I glanced back at the table to see Gerald eyes fixed on me as the lady chatted with him. I turned away quickly and munched on my steak.

I began to worry when neither of them had emerged from the gents. I glanced at the table but Gerald was deep intent on listening to whatever the woman was saying.

Few minutes after Seyi came out. I tried to Catch his gaze either he didn't see me or  he chose to ignore it but I think it was the latter.

I waited for a minute, not seeing Rasaq,I headed for the male restroom.

As I entered, luckily it was only Rasaq. He stood by the sink as he watched his hands.

"What happened?" I asked as I edged closer to him. That's when I noticed his face and the blood on his clothes. "Who did this !"

"I slipped." Rasaq said avoiding looking at me.

"Do you think I'm dumb. Was it Seyi that did this ?"

"Seyi?, Was he here?" He looked at me and flashed a smile at me.

"Don't play with me Rasaq." I headed to one of the stalls and got a tissue as I dabbed it on his bleeding face.

He winced." It's all part of my plan Ola."

"Plan ?"

He smile widned. "Don't check around but there's a CCTV here."

My hand stiffined on his face."what are you going to do with it?"
