Love by Chance

Aden

This is getting old, Aden thought within himself, he was getting bored of all these easy ladies around him, he wanted to do the chase for a change but they were all alike, once they realise he is a billionaire coupled with the fact that he was good looking, they just kept pushing themselves to him with the hope that they will be lucky enough to become Mrs Billionaire but he was sick of all these, no thrill, no excitement, just same old thing, once he met a lady who acted tough at first but melted just like the others when someone gave his identity away, she started trying too hard which made it obvious that she was just out to get a rich boyfriend and her toughness was to drive the broke guys away.

Sitting in his office and going through the documents for one of the major deal they just landed, his secretary knocked on his door for what seems like the hundredth time today, yes Mary what is it he asked and she told him, Laila called to confirm their lunch date, without raising his eyes from the document he was holding, he told Mary to tell her to get lost and gave her a firm warning not to interrupt his work for stupid phone calls anymore, after Mary closed the door, he was so angry that he went to the wash room to wash his face with cold water in hopes that it will calm him down alittle, he knew all these was his fault he should have set his standard long ago but he thought he could just keep playing along until he found the one for him, who knows finding the one will take this long, his attitude to women has deteriorated so much that, he doesn't even acknowledge their greetings, he just pass by and look at them as though they were flies, he use to have so much respect for women when he was a small boy, mama thought him to always respect a woman and it was easy to, back then, he saw how hard his mum worked to put food on the table and clothes on his back, she was a single mother, who relied on no one but her hardwork to raise him, now he sees women looking for rich men to pay their bills and sleeping around without much care for their body, no value whatsoever and that puts him off, the only reason he stands the site of a woman is when he wants to get laid and once he's done, he call a taxi to get them far away from him and pays them off, some actually left in annoyance and never bother trying again but some keep coming back for more with the hope that he will eventually fall for them, now that he thinks about it, it all just seem so shallow to him, mama would be so mad at him if she finds out about all his escapades and how he treats women, she may probably make him marry one of them just as a slap to his face and ego, eww, the thought of that irked him so he shook it off and went to stand by the window gazing out to the street, car honking and people walking by, busy as usual, life keeps moving but he was stuck in a lonely and loveless life.
