IT WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN

Chapter 7

Ashanti POV

me and Tommy met in my freshman year and he was in his second year I think so if I remember correctly.

So I never knew he was a nepo baby.

He didn't behave like a nepo baby.

Until ja so what happened was that normally he would just like to take me to events whereby I'm forced to wear uncomfortable expensive dresses worst not that I had to buy them but he bought them and I didn't want him to feel bad so I didn't read between the lines back then actually the signs were there I was just not guarded

Worst part was that I hate dresses to save my life I would only wear them for important reasons but most of the times I hate dresses.

Normally when we go to events he would come pick me up by himself it's a surprise this time there was only a pick up transport

so I stood there and felt like the earth will just swallow me I was so embarrassed.

Who wouldn't everyone was wearing swim wear here the minute I got out all eyes were on me that time Tommy said he's going to the bathroom quick and after that he'll pick me up at the entrance

I am with a classy dress like I'm going to a Gala wherelse it's nothing but a meer pool party. He didn't specifically tell me the anything . He just said look good especially if you're comfortable in it.

So I thought maybe we were going to an event since his family like to drag him to those charity events since it's the normal routine So I thought why not look good I mean my friend says I like to act like a tomboy and it confuses others hence it's difficult for me to find a date or boyfriend in most cases

It was his fault for this last minute plans.

Did I also mention it's dam crowded in here

also I felt like something bad was gonna happen.I just suddenly had this feeling that something is wrong I brushed it off with the thought of maybe he was proposing silly me right . I thought maybe he's he has a swimwear for me inside

Okay I'm feeling a bit anxious right now I need to find him maybe it's a wrong place or maybe something happened to him That's what my instinct told me but my curiosity self got the best of me and told me to go inside and check

I was passing by this place in the passage with weird looks everywhere but luckily everyone was having their time then there was a way out leading to the garden and it sounded like this people were in some sort of argument me being curious went to check it Where the whispers were coming from there was it was this garden looks good

Since my curiosity self got the best of me and told me to check. It was like it needed me to be there . My curiosity was expecting me to be there as I am but there was nothing I could do. Unless if there was a way to turn back the time or time travelling see what my curiosity led me into and exactly Dan of Lions it made sure to do that

like a big girl I am I tried to hold it in.

*What happened was that I heard an argument and got curious and followed and when I got closer i realized it was Tommy's voice and got closer I actually wanted to shout and verify if it was really him but since the argument could be heard clearly now I stopped my self and listened

Tommy was shushing a lady.

I couldn't even see her face clearly but I could see Timmy's figure even thou he was facing that side

Him :"Okay but don't shout please before someone might hear you."

Her :So it's better to be a fool and act like I know nothing.? You don't care about my pregnancy anymore don't you?

What about your child? For heaven's sake what would my mother say you know she's not in a good health to raise it I can't afford to raise this child alone ? (Tommy tried to block her mouth and she moved backwards and now I could see her clearly now okay she was heavily pregnant and I can recognize that face he introduced her as the cousin I bet she couldn't notice me)

I haven't even said anything and you busy thinking of anyone hearing me. That's what you're worried about, unless you want me to terminate it don't you?

Tim: you really like to overthink don't you

"What am I supposed to think, when I'm suddenly abandoned"

Tim :you know that's not it babe after the bet is over I'll be all yours

"Still don't understand this bet thing of yours ,it's so childish ,what if Ash found out about it before the whole thing ."

(I'm still here and listening so far since madam here is too angry that she doesn't recognize me so I was like nah why is my name mentioned I was seriously taken back)

Tim: I doubt she will ,I mean I have the CHICKA wrapped around my fingers ,she wouldn't let me go ,she loves me way too much to think that there's such a thing

"Well I'm not so sure about that anymore"

Okay she's looking at me is this a trap set by her for me or what's going on here what bet I mean okay hold it in I'm in a den of lions everything started being blurry next thing after it went quiet ,there's this scumbag who's looking at me is it pity for my self or himself he's too arrogant this one he thinks the world revolves around him, he thinks the world revolves around him I just looked at him and smiled and asked "so I was a bet you say how much was bet here"

He couldn't even talk he was too frozen to talk I looked at the so called cousin

"it's a sport car a limited edition apparently"

"where's the car? I asked he's still not moving I looked at her it's being displayed at the pool the Nissan GT - R50"

"ohh is it call the people who you made a bet with or I swear your life will be made miserable if you don't " I went to the pool and was standing next to it, I must say it's kinda cute he came with two other guys

So far I know Mike he looked shocked "so you all made a bet I just want to know who won"

They all looked at Tommy "babes congratulations!"

They smiled Tommy was about to come over to me and I stopped him halfway with a baseball bat

"now let me show you what this chicka going to do for you" it's like he thought I was happy for him I smashed it and to say he was shocked was an understatement I mean I caught him off guard and the so called cousin was gobsmacked

BACK TO THE PRESENT

she was busy with a sketch for new project ,she tried to concentrate but nothing was working and nothing was coming to plan how when she bumped into Sandra with her son at the cafe today everything that happened 5 years ago came back after seeing their child even thou she tried so much to forget about it ,it destroyed her dignity how dare they, they played a bet on her ,she never ever thought that she will be a victim for such sick games ,even thinking about sucks
