MEANT To Be

chapter 20

💎 Mig's POV💎

I started cleaning up the attic immediately Fleur and Elva left in the morning..

It took me hours...I swept,mopped,dusted,cleaned,scrubbed,arranged and all but I'm satisfied with the way the attic looks now.

It's sparkling clean with no trace of dust,I arranged the luggage carefully to a side.

My piano is now placed beside the window,I sprayed some air freshener after I'm done and 'wow'..I can't help but appreciate my efforts.

I quickly went to have my bath,changed into a new set of clothes,cooked and ate before going back to the attic.

I sat on my piano stool and smiled,I checked the time; 3:30.

Wow,time is far spent, they will be home soon and i have to be done before they get home.

I began singing and playing my piano.

I felt excitement bubble in me..as usual.

I sang with more desire and it felt great.. I was lost in the song that I didn't heard the front door open.

I stopped when I heard Fleur saying 'we are home'. I quickly covered my piano and hurried out of the attic.

I stepped into the living room and saw Fleur and Elva.

"Welcome" I said.

"Thanks Mig" They said.

"I can swear I heard the same voice singing just now" Elva said and I bit my lips.

"Really?" Fleur asked feigning ignorance.

"Yes,the voice is amazing"She said.

"Yes i also heard it" I lied.

"Really?"

Yeah.

"Leave that for now, I'm starving" Fleur said.

"Your lunch is in the kitchen" I said.

"I think i will just go freshen up,i'm full already" Elva said.

"Did you had lunch at work?" I asked.

"Yes, Ben took her for lunch" Fleur said and I felt anger rose in me.

"Ben ?..

Who is Ben and why the hell will he take her to lunch" I yelled in anger before I could stop myself.

💎Mig's POV💎

"Ben?"

"Who's Ben ?

Why will he take her out for lunch?" I yelled before i could stop myself.

Elva flinched while Fleur gave me a look.

"Mig"what's wrong,why would you yell?Fleur asked.

"Ben is just a friend"Elva also added and I calm down a bit.

"Am sorry, I'm having mood swing I didn't mean to yell" I said and walked away to my room. I sat on the bed and ran my hands through my hair...

Gosh!

Why did i get annoyed just because a guy took her out for lunch, it's not like I own her or something but i don't just know what's wrong with me recently.

I just felt something rose in me, it's not any anger.

Wait...was I jealous?

💎Elva's POV💎

I walked to my room while Fleur walked to the kitchen, I entered and drop my bag on the bed and let out a deep breath.

I was surprised Mig could yell angrily..but it's just mood swing.

Mig always give me a kind of feeling whenever I'm close to him. I once thought it was just his cuteness that always make me feel that way but no ! there is also this feeling...my heart pumps anytime he's around.

What could his feelings be?

***

I walked back to the living room after I finished bathing now clad in a blue shorts with a loose polo.i met Fleur and Mig sitting on different couch in the sitting room,I sat beside fleur.

"Fleur you've finished eating"?

"Yes,are you hungry?"

"No,I will wait till dinner cos my stomach is still full now"I said

"Is Ben a staff in your hospital..."Mig suddenly asked.

"Yes he is Doctor's cousin"Fleur said.

"Really?" Mig asked.

"Yeah...he told me that during our conversation"I chipped in and regretted it immediately cos of the look Mig sent me.

Is he pissed at me or what?

"Elva I was not talking to you. I was referring to Fleur okay"he said and I felt hurt immediately

"Mig that was harsh "Fleur scolded.

"No it's okay,sorry for interrupting Mig "I said and stood up and walked back to my room...

I closed the door behind me and sat on the bed staring into space

I wonder why Mig is behaving that way...to me he never shuns me.. what could be wrong?

I gave up thinking after some minutes and resumed the novel I was reading...

I slept off only to be taken by Fleur for dinner.

"Wow it's late"I said and followed Fleur to the dining I kept looking at Mig during the meal but he just wouldn't look at me.

We finished eating and I offered to wash the dishes Mig offered to clean the table while Fleur said good night to us...

I took the plates to the kitchen and started washing, the silence is Killing me,since I know that Mig is with me but just wouldn't talk.

We normally chat when carrying out our work I wonder what I actually did wrong.

"Mig" I called and he turned to face me.

"Did I offend you?"I asked.

"No you didn't"he said and turned back to cleaning the dining table.

"Then why do you keep giving me attitude"I asked and i saw his face went sober.

I'm sorry Elva, it's my mood" he said and walked to me

"Ok mig, I just kept wondering what I did wrong since you won't even talk to me"I said..

"Ok let me be sincere then; i felt a little hurt that the food I kept for you is a waste,I ate little so you and Fleur could have enough to eat but you got back only to tell me had lunch" He said.

"Ohh.. I'm so sorry Mig,I promise I won't have lunch again before coming home,I didn't know you will get mad,i should not have had lunch..I'm sorry" I apologized.

"Really?...You mean you won't have lunch again at work?" He asked and I nodded.

"Yes I won't" I said and he smiled..

I'm glad my Mig is back !

Uh..My Mig..
