100 Days With Mr Romero

Gideon was shocked to the bone marrow immediately Emma walk in. He stood there looking at her in surprise. He stood there looking at her without a word.

“What are you doing here? he managed to ask her.

“Excuse me sir. ” said Frankie. He walked away from the spot leaving them alone in the living room.

Emma looked at Gideon and noticed how frail he was looking. His eyes were swollen and red and he was barely standing. She felt sorry for him.

“I’m here to check up on you. ” she finally replied.

“I heard about the accident and so I decided to come and check up on you. ” Emma added with her eyes fixed on the floor.

Gideon smiled inwardly. He couldn’t believe his ears. Emma had really come to see him and it gladened his heart.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

“I’ll take my leave now. ” announced Emma.

“I can see you are doing okay. ” she added and turned around to leave.

“Emma. ” called out Gideon and she halted.

She slowly turned around and faced him..

“Yes. ” she responded and their eyes met.

“Thank you. ” Gideon said looking into her eyes and Emma kept staring at him for a while.

She nodded, turned around and left. Emma went back into her car, heaved a deep sigh and drove home. She felt relieved that Gideon was okay.

Immediately Judy got to her house after Gideon sent her away, she ran inside her room slamming the door really hard. She was feeling very angry and she yelled out in frustration flinging her bag on the bed. Tears were already streaming down her cheeks. Why does Gideon keep pushing her away she thought.

She was sitting on a chair in her room with her face burried in between her laps. She recalled her encounter with Emma after she was walking out of Gideon’s house. She recalled Emma gloated at her telling her she wasn’t looking okay.

She angrily pushed the plastic lantern resting on her table and it crashed on the floor ssplitting into bits. She pushed the well arranged books on the table and they fell on the broken lantern.

She began to weep then suddenly, she broke out into a dry laugh. She stood up and went to the bathroom to clean her face. She came out, lifted her handbag from the bed and stormed out of her room leaving the mess she created behind.

A week earlier, Judy had received a phone call from someone.

“I’ll be there right away. ” she promised after answering the call.

“Take me to BASH game reserve. ” she told the taxi driver who just pulled up in front of her after she went out of her house to meet the caller.

She hopped in and he drove her then he parked the car at the entrance gate of the game reserve.

“I’m at the gate. ” she said after calling the person she came to meet.

“Stay there. I’ll be there shortly. ” he responded and hung up.

Soon, the man came out from the reserve and waved at Judy who began walking towards him.

“You look terrible. ” he told her as they headed into the reserve.

Judy smirked and fumed over the man’s comment.

“Your eyes are swollen. ” he said immediately they sat on the locally weaved chairs in the lounge of the reserve.

“I’m okay. ” Judy lied.

It was the day after she and Gideon came in contact with Emma at the auditorium.

“Emma is in town. ” she told him.

“I know. ” he agreed with her.

“Have you seen her? ” Judy asked .

“That bitch has transformed. ” she said.

“And do you know the exploits she’s doing in the city? ”

“Tell me. ” the man said.

“Do you know that she is the face behind LIA’S? ” asked Judy.

“What? ” blurted the man.

“Yes. She is snatching away Gideon’s business partners, taking over his investors and making him feel incompetent.” complained Judy.

“She looks hot, her hair is engthy and gush I hate her. ” Judy screamed in frustration.

The man smiled and Judy felt mocked.

“Do you want some water? ” he asked her.

“Are you crazy? ” she yelled at him

“Easy Tigress. ” he said trying to pacify her.

“Listen man. ” began Judy while facing him.

“ROMERO BARS is incuring losses and I tell you if we don’t work hard, that company will go down and it will hurt you the most. ” Judy explained.

“I don’t care about that dumb company. ” she said falling back on the chair.

“It’s Gideon that is keeping me there and you know it. ” Judy admitted.

“Back to that bitch. ” she continued.

“We need to take her out. ” she professed.

“Careful Judy. ” warned the man.

“Fine.” she stated with a nod.

“They are divorced Judy so I guess we don’t have an issue. Focus on distracting Gideon and we will both have what we want. ” he told her.

“Are you scared? ” he aksed her after noticing how restless she looked.

While sitting opposite the man in the reserve, Judy was recollecting her experience with Emma. She couldn’t get that thought off her mind.

What if they eventually make up later on? She thought . No way she said in her mind.

“Judy! ” the man called out after noticing she was lost in thoughts.

“They won’t make up. ” she finally voiced out.

“How sure are you? ” the man asked interrogating her sudden certainty.

“Emma hates Gideon with so much passion. ” replied Judy with a smile.

“That’s good news for us. ” he said smiling back.

“You should have seen the way she proclaimed how vengeful she is towards him. ” narrated Judy.

She quickly stood up and demonstrated to the man.

“She threatened to ruin him and you need to see how my Gideon was scared. ” Judy said sadly and fell back on the chair.

“Your Gideon? ” hinted the man.

“I’ll make him mine I swear to you. No matter what it takes. ” Judy swore.
