INTREPID

ZOE

Handsome,wealthy,noble,single,intelligent, a complete package.That is how the majority characterise me,but inside, I am just a broken man and probably a drunkered.I believe what Zoe once said to me"there is always more to people than what's meet the eyes" I am a pure definition of that.I have been broken ever since she left and I have searched everywhere for her but to no avail.Its like the whole person disappeared into thin air.I can not take her image out of my mind and every day her image is becoming more clear making me even more miserable.She has a slim,twine_thin sculpted figure and a burnished complexion and a tapered waist.She is the bane of my existence and I am dying everyday with out her.

It has been seven years since Zoe left me,I have no idea how to find her anymore.I have tried everything,private investigators,computer wizards,I even went to her house after stealing her details from the school records,only to find that she sold her grandmothers house and left.Which hurts me everyday because I know she doesn't want me to find her.She has done a great job hiding from me.I hurt her so much that she left everything behind just to get away from me.

My parents are worried about me, and I can't blame them because all I do is work and get drunk alone and look for Zoe.In a short period of time,she imprinted herself in my heart,I will never forget her.I tried dating I thought maybe I could forget about her but everyone I met wanted money or just the image of being found with me.I have never hard a time to have deep conversation with anyone but Zo ,I miss her every day.I keep wondering how I lost her,when she was the person I loved the most.I guess that is just what stupid people do.Jake described how she looked when she came looking for me,by heart broke even more.

My parents got back together and I forced them to take early retirement,little did I know I would become their full time job.I want them to be happy and give them grand children at some point.That is why I got engaged last week to Lisa,she is a model,very beautiful and I hope I can fall in love with her.I have an open mind to love again even though no one can replace Zoe,I hope she can find her own place in my heart.My parents are not very fond of her, she's always moving because of her work and they think she cannot keep a home,but everybody deserves a chance as I have learned from the past.

For the past seven years I have worked hard, in the process of searching for Zoe I ended up having a lot of business ideas and they worked.Work became my escape from the shameful thing I did to Zoe, that gult will eat me up for the rest of my life.If I ever find her, I will beg for her forgiveness even though I don't deserve it.The sad part of being a rich man is that everything you do becomes news headlines, every event, every property you purchase,the people you are found with,nothing is a secret.And apparently,being single for a long time was a problem to a lot of people and when I proposed to Lisa it was on the news; THE HOTTEST BACHELOR IS OFF THE MARKET; I couldn't help but wonder how Zoe felt, was it anger,happiness? or maybe she just doesn't care at all.

She has done a great job,hiding from me.Then, again,she hoped that we never meet.How did I hurt her that much? she is the most tolerant person I know.But I hurt her deeply,I deserve everything from her.I wish she could hate me because hate is better than nothing.I downloaded all the songs that reminds of her, listening to them is painful but it makes me remember an Angel that I felt to keep.She will always be part of my life.

I was supposed to fly out for some work, but I received an invitation to speak at the university in Livingstone City.I wanted to refuse, but I think it will do me some good to do something different from my work.They need to to speak to the students about managing finances in school,apparently three students have died of suicide in the past two months and they suspect poor management of finances is one of the causes of these cases.I'm really happy to be invited to such event's,it makes me feel like I could be an inspiration to the young people.

I told my parents about the event, and they want to come along and visit Livingstone.They have a lot of time now to do whatever they want, and that makes me happy. We will just make it a family trip,I want Lisa to come long, but she is busy.

We reached Livingstone around 9 AM,i'm supposed to be at the university at 10 AM.We settled in protea hotel and I left right before my parents went screaming in excitement to go and visit the famous Victoria falls.They are having a blast and I'm happy to see them back together and happy.

I reached the university in good time, and I was directed to the auditorium immediately.I could see students staring in at me , and I guess I'm well known now.

The day went by so fast,apparently one female lecturer is running late,she he has a lecture.We tried waiting for her but we decided to begin the program without her.It was my turn turn to speak,i stood up,the students cheered and clapped in excitement.I began to speak:Good morning everyone,My name is Mike Shaw,I'm here to speak to you on how to manage your finances in school no matter how small it is it can be well managed.I was in the middle of my presentation when a familiar figure hit my site,I could not believe who I was seeing,I closed and opened my eyes again maybe, just maybe I was imagining her standing at the door and to my delight,it was really Zoe standing at the door.Fear engulfed My chest , I felt a strange sensation in my stomach,I don't know if I was excited or afraid.she walked in confidently in heels,and she wore a stylish plain mini dress that clung to her hips like a glove, I envy her colleagues who get to see her everyday.She looks gorgeous,but you can't miss the shock on her face when she saw me staring at her.I did not realize that I stopped speaking and everyone was waiting for me to continue. Zoe can affect me like this.I finished speaking to the students, though I was more excited about finding Zoe.
