Cassandra ♥️
“Sandy_? I told you about my mom being a cop right? And that she’s away most of the time?” Daphne asked and I nodded. “Yeah you did, that’s why I never got to meet her right?” I asked and she nodded before smiling brightly.
“Well guess what. She’d back and now in the town’s county. Meaning you’ll be meeting her any time soon.” She said and I smiled.
“That’s good then.” I replied as we walked out of the library. I checked my bag for my schedule and my hand touched something unfamiliar. I knew there was nothing like that in my bag before so I quickly fished it out.
It was a phone. I gasped and was about slipping it back into the bag when Daphne’s eyes caught sight of it. “What! Don’t tell me you were gonna hide something like that, come on am gonna type my contact in.” She said happily, snatching the phone from my hands as I gasped.
“Daphne_? It’s not mine. ” My statement must have stopped her cause she passed and turned to stare at me. “Wh_what do you mean?” She stressed, looking intently at the phone.
“It’s not yours then why’s it in your bag? How did it get in there?” She asked, folding her hands.
“I don’t know, maybe Shawn placed it in there,I don’t really know.” I replied as she scrolled through the phone. “Well I think your guess is right. His contact is the only thing in the phone and guess what?” She said, smiling sheepishly as I tried snatching the phone from her hand.
“Just spill it out,my driver would be here in no time.” I groused and she pouted. “I thought we were gonna go out after school? What’s wrong Cassandra?” She asked and I swallowed the lump in my throat.
How do I tell my best friend that I was blackmailed into this marriage? That I was forced,that I didn’t have a choice? I sighed loudly as I felt her hands on my arms.
“It’s alright. You can tell me when you’re comfortable about spilling it out.” She whispered as I hugged her.
“Cassandra_?” I heard my name as I swiped my head around. Who could that be? I thought as I sighted Laurel walking towards me with his usual smile.
Daphne had always wanted me to be in a relationship with Laurel but the church_gal in me wouldn’t hear of it but who am I kidding? Am engaged already!
“Hey,it seems you enjoyed your trip, how’s Lauren and why isn’t she in school?” I asked as he smiled at me then winked at Daphne.
“Oh yeah,you know her, she’s gone to the beauty spa to make sure she’s looking radiant for tomorrow.” He replied as we all chuckled.
“So_ can I drop you off? I mean at home?” He asked and I was about saying no when a bold and loud yes escaped Daphne’s mouth.
I stood rooted to the ground,mouth agape as she smirked mischievously. I just hope the driver doesn’t come on time,I just hope.
Shawn????
“You just ignored my calls.” Miranda blabbed on and on as I got busy with my work. The only thing keeping her here is her job. I thought of making her my baby mama but on one occasion when I asked her if she wanted kids,she’d plainly told me that kids were like distractions,that she wasn’t ready to be a mother. Then and there,I knew I had to look for a suitable mom for Little Fiona.
She’d been eight months when the doctor diagnosed her of cancer. Though none of my family members knows about this but I suffered the pain,the thought of losing her wasn’t a mini thing.
After the surrogacy,I wanted to take her home then introduce her to everyone but my little girl isn’t so strong. She has a respiratory track infection.
Mom would have been so happy to see her but I’ve made up my mind,am only gonna take her home once Cassandra is pregnant.
“Miranda_” I called as she hmmed.
“Call some event planners,to my penthouse,not the mansion.” I said and she nodded. Just then,my phone buzzed and when I checked the caller it was Jack the driver.
“I just got to her school and she isn’t here. Some girls said she left in a guys car.” Jack said as I folded my fists.
“Look for her.” Was the last order before I disconnected the call. In a guys car? Who could that be? I know she doesn’t have a boyfriend so who’s this guy? I asked myself as I dialed her line.
Yeah I placed the phone in her bag without her knowing. I bet she must have seen it by now.
“Hello.” Came an unfamiliar voice,yeah I knew it wasn’t Cassandra. She had a low and sweet voice but this? It’s kinda bold.
“Give the phone to Cassandra.” I almost barked but held myself.
“Shawn?” Cassandra called and I heaved a sigh of relief. “Where are you and whose car did you go with?” I asked as she sighed.
“I just came around to see dad,and Laurel drove me there,am really sorry for not calling earlier.” She apologized and immediately I disconnected the call.
Cassandra ♥️
The loud honk from the car outside needed no one to remind me that Jack was outside waiting. “Dad,I really have to go Hannah take good care of him.” I said, almost in a whisper as we all embraced.
“The minute he treats you wrong,you’ll be out of his house, okay?” Dad said and I almost chuckled.
“Sure dad.” I replied before getting into the car. “Bye.” I waved as jack zoomed off.
The way Shawn disconnected the call. I bet he’s angry. Oh God.
“Jack_?” I called and he slowed down a bit. ” “Yes ma’am.” He replied as I frowned.
“Just call me Cassandra, could you please drop me off at Shawn’s office?” I asked and noticed him stiffen a bit.
“Okay, I’ll do that.” He replied and drove on.

I alighted the car and walked into the huge building, looking around until I found the receptionist. I walked up to her and put in my best smile.
“Good afternoon Miss, is Mr Handel in?” I asked and she looked at me from head to toe before replying.
“If you wanna get a stripping job or a job as a slut you don’t need to see the boss,meet Mr migros.” She said as I gasped.
“Do I look like a slut to you? Or a hungry girl? Am here to see my boyfriend so watch your mouth.” I yelled angrily as gasped filled the air but it soon died off as the hall became silent.
“Teresa did you call her a slut?” I heard Shawn’s voice and Immediately the rude lady trembled.
“Miranda look for a replacement.” With that,he walked up to me and pulled me in for a brief kiss and a hug.
What! My first kiss? And that too in public?
