Chapter 250: The man who came bearing bad news 2
''''The reason why I can''t be together with you is, you are not my type. I don''t do virgins, especially the ones who believe in happily ever after'''' Lisa finished reading the letter and screamed, ''''what?'''' she turned to face the man.
''''Who are you? Tell me. Did you n this with Gideon to break up with my darling in this manner?'''' Lisa asked angrily. She had totally forgotten about the man''s handsomeness and had be fierce
''''Miss, I think there is a misunderstanding somewhere. I don''t know that man you are talking about. I was just passing by after a long journey and saw this caf and decided toe in for a drink. That man was at the entrance and he gave me this letter toe and give it to the Miss here. If I knew what it contained, trust me I wouldn''t have taken it in the first ce. He told me, she was his sister whom she was asking for forgiveness from''''
''''Sister?'''' Pa said and chuckled, feeling ridiculous. ''''Since when did I be his sister?'''' Pa turned to the man. It seemed like her question was directed to him.
''''Right, since when were you his sister?'''' Lisa also turned to the man.
Jordan pulled over in front of the caf and they got down. Paige frowned looking at the location of the caf. It was a little far from the main road and was located in District J of City B.
''''Why did she open a caf in this part of the district? She won''t get customers because it''s far from the roadside''''
''''Let''s go in. She will tell you the reason herself'''' Jordan held her hand and they went inside.
The doorbells at the top of the door made noise when they entered. Looking at the setting of the caf, Paige was a little confused. She turned to Jordan, ''''are you sure this is the right ce? This seems like a proposal on the way''''
There were a lot of writings on the windows and a big skateboard with the writings, ''''will you marry me, Gideon'' on them.
''''This is the ce, but I am not sure what is going on'''' Jordan saw and they heard voices at a distance and went further into the caf to check.
''''Who are you? Why are you giving this to me?''''
''''Miss, I was asked to give this to you by a man I met outside''''
Paige and Jordan saw the twodies and a man talking.
''''What is happening there?'''' Paige whispered to Jordan and he shook his head.
''''I have no idea, but Lisa is over there. Thedy I told you about''''
''''It doesn''t seem like we came at the right time''''
''''I think so too''''
One of thedies turned and saw Jordan and walked towards them, ''''Jordan?''''
''''Lisa, I thought I was at the wrong ce'''' Jordan chuckled as thedy called Lisa walked up to them. She looked at Paige and smiled.
''''When did you arrive?'''' Lisa looked at her friend still arguing with the man and turned to Jordan, ''''we were just in the middle of something''''
''''Is everything alright?'''' Paige asked with a worried gaze. She looked at the other woman who was now sitting on one of the chairs and the man walking towards them.
''''Yeah, just'''' Lisa forced a smile as she looked at the man leaving, ''''we were nning to give her boyfriend a surprise and it turned out the joke was on us'''' Lisa exined as she looked at her friend who had ced her head on the table.
''''What happened? Is there anything we can do to help?'''' Paige asked and Lisa shook her head.
''''She is heartbroken right now''''
''''Looks like we came at the wrong time, then'''' Jordan said.
''''No, it''s alright. She is wait, let me guess, you are Paige, right?'''' Lisa turned to Paige.
''''Yes, I am''''
''''Girl, you are a lucky bitch'''' Lisa pulled Paige into a tight hug and turned to her friend who was at the side, ''''Pa,e over here. Remember I told you about my encounter with Jordan at Cosmos? This is Jordan and she is his girlfriend, Paige''''
''''Hi, nice to meet you. I am Pa'''' the friend said shyly.
''''Hi, Pa. I am Jordan and she is Paige''''
''''But, what you two doing here?'''' Lisa asked them.
''''We came for a secret date to your caf but there aren''t customers'''' Jordan looked around the empty space.
''''Right, Jordan, you have connections. Can you find someone for me?'''' she asked, changing the topic.
''''Who do you want to find?'''' Jordan asked.
''''Someone. A jerk who dared to breakup with my darling here through a letter. I mean who does that? This is why I never domitment. One-night stand is enough to get me going''''
Paige gasped, looking at Lisa. She suddenly felt that Jordan was right by calling her entric. The way her mind worked was really different.
''''Lisa, don''t look for him'''' Pa said, pulling Lisa''s sleeve.
''''No, I have to find that bastard and cut off his balls. He is not even human. You did all this and he didn''t even have the guts to face you and only broke up through a letter. Who does that?''''
''''I said leave him alone'''' Pa shouted at Lisa and ran out of the caf.
''''Lisa, we wille back another time. You should go after her'''' Jordan said to Lisa.
''''Right. Paige, next time you are here, everything is on me'''' Lisa said to them and ran out.
Paige looked outside as she stood next to Jordan and asked, ''''do you think she will be okay? I can tell she was hurt. She did all these preparations only to be rejected''''

Andy Bassey was driving on the road back to the city when he saw thedy he gave the letter too. He drove pass by but slowly slowed down as if waiting for her. he rolled down his window slightly and looked at thedy as she walked pass him.
Her bag was dangling behind her as she took unhurried steps. She looked devastated as she walked on.
Andy wanted to drive away. He wanted to get away from her, but he couldn''t and he didn''t know why. This was the first time they had met so why was it so difficult to shake him her face from his mind? He looked at the woman and sighed, cussing himself for been so soft-hearted.
Just like that, Andy followed the woman slowly as she walked away until they reached the city. He didn''t know whether to apud her for her tenacity or not? She had actually walked from a ce that was almost 20 miles away from the city. he couldn''t also believe he had followed behind her like a snail to the city.
He pulled over at a distance and frowned as he watched the woman go into the club. He sighed and cussed before getting down from the car and followed her inside.
He ran into the club and after looking around for a while, he finally found her and heaved a relief. He walked to the counter and pulled a chair beside her to sit. He turned and looked at her. She had ordered a cocktail and was drinking calmly.
The bartender walked to Andy and asked him politely, ''''sir what can I serve you?''''
''''Soda, please'''' he replied and the bartender nodded and went to bring him a bottle of soda.
Pa sighed and turned to see Andy looking at her. She gave him a weak smile saying, ''''you are here again'''' her voice slurred and it was obvious she was drunk.
''''How much did you drink?'''' Andy asked her and she chuckled.
''''It''s none of your business. Get away from me'''' she said to him and pushed the empty ss towards the bartender as he brought Andy''s soda. ''''Fill it up for me. I want a whisky'''' she said to the bartender.
''''She won''t drink anymore. Give her a ss of water'''' Andy said to the bartender and Pa turned to face him.
''''Have you gone crazy? Is it your money I am using? Why don''t you just mind your own business?'''' she stared at him angrily and pouted her lips as the tears fell from her eyes.
''''Do you know each other?'''' the bartender asked.
''''Yes'''' Andy replied.
''''No'''' Pa replied.
The bartender looked at them confused.
''''He is the one who gave me a letter. He broke up with me through a letter. You, heartless jerk'''' Pa said and Andy looked flustered as the people at the counter looked at them.
''''No, don''t misunderstand. I am not the one who broke up with her. Miss, calm down okay?'''' Andy said and Pa chuckled.
''''Calm down? Mister, Calm down! Did you just asked me to calm down?'''' sheughed and pped her hands together before looking at him, ''''my boyfriend just broke up with me through a letter that you gave me and you ask me to calm down. Are you tired of living? You must have a death wish! Answer me Mr. Man''''
