THE UNEARTHED AFRICAN BEAUTY.

CHAPTER SEVEN: SLEEPLESS NIGHT TWO.

Oblivious to Sheilla, Hussein was also I. the same state. He was intrigued by the reaction he had in his emotional consciousness. He had dealt with many ladies but the feeling that this lady's aura gave him was otherworldly. He had never had such a sensation in his life. After having encountered Sheilla at the point of intersection,he had done a thorough investigation on her background. He had found out to his surprise that she had the same lifestyle that he had before his liberation by his current benefactor. Hussein himself was initially a street urchin that each and every individual regarded as a sour thumb. He had been forced into street life by his tyrannical stepmother who denied him all of his rights in his own home. His father who was a bank manager had died in a gruesome road c*****e. His stepmother monopolized all the property that his father had left behind. The stepmother told him that he wasn't an heir to his father's property,so he should crash all the fantasies he had on the property. Since then, he went from a rich cool kid to a ragged beggar at age five.

Some few years later, a good-hearted Arabian man took pity on him and decided to raise as his own son. This was not an on-the-spur of a moment decision. The Arab, Farah,had taken his time to study the behavior of Hussein,who was then called James. After confirming that Hussein was fit to be his child, Farah didn't hesitate anymore. He took him in and started to model him into a handsome man that he was fifteen later.

Farah had married good natured woman who loved him deeply. They staid together for ten years without getting any children. They did thorough check up and found out that his wife was barren and couldn't give any kids. His wife was greatly shocked and at the same time very sad. She started to have misconceptions that maybe Farah would despise her and cast her aside. But to her surprise, Farah, who was clearly disappointed, didn't show any dissatisfaction towards her. He gently consoled her and assured her that she would continue to be his wife and that she should not have any emotional or psychological burden.

Five years later, Farah,who was a middle aged man, advised his wife that they should adopt a child. His wife,who knew that Farah really wanted a child,agreed without hesitation! It was after this that Hussein got the chance to be Farah's beloved son. He got the best education in the country and with his sharp brain,he got promoted without failure till he got to university. All these years,he had grown knowing that he couldn't afford to let his parents down.

So, he knew that despite the fact that he was currently known as one of the Big Five,he was all but nothing without the adoption.Therefore, he knew that if he wanted to get a suitable girlfriend,he had to get someone as good and down to earth as Sheilla. The problem was,would she be in a position to accept him if he were to confess? He knew that he didn't have a problem with confessing, because due to his status as a renowned rich kid,he had shown his skills in picking up girls in front of his fellow Big Five members. He thought threw this issue for a very long time.

What had really surprised him is that he found out from Faith that Sheilla was usually a timid and shy girl but this morning she was clearly very proactive. Could Faith have said something wrong or had the sun really risen from the west?

Hussein tossed and turned in bed without finding a solution. He thought of asking his friends for their opinions but later refrained himself because he knew that the other guys in his circle were brainless idiots who were always on the fore front to remind others of the rift that existed between the poor kids and them. His friends daily routine was to pick up pretty girls and mouse them,roam all over the place with their high end Lamborghinis, Maseratis and all that can be mentioned. Almost everyone wasa rotten apple!

Hussein unwittingly also decided to check up some tips online. But he ensured that he was very discreet of what he did. If word got out that the king of rich kids, Hussein,was seeking love tips,he would lose all his face that he had built with great effort! He didn't know that Sheilla was doing the same! He got what he wanted, internalized all the information like a sponge being soaked in water. When he was done, he thought he had earned a lot."Wow!It's so had to deal with a person that you truly love! Will this tips really work? Forget it! I'll just throw caution to the wind and take one step at a time. Everything has a first time. If I fail this time, I'll keep on pestering her until she agrees!" Hussein made up his mind and decided to get some sleep. And did he fall asleep? Not at all!😂. His mind was occupied by sheilla's graceful figure.Though in conservative clothes,but still discernible by a person with a discerning eye."To hell with the dressing code! I know what I felt! Let me see who would try to point fingers at me, humph!" And with that, the young love bird immersed himself in his fantasies until dawn.

He woke up earlier the next day than he had ever done because he didn't sleep even a wink! He went to the washroom,took a hot shower,massaged his swollen eyes, blowdried his hair and put on his navy blue suit and a marching pair of shoes. He dressed himself to kill. He kept telling himself in mind,"This is the day! I have to ensure I get close to that piece of masterpiece.She must be mine at all costs!" He had a determined ferocious look that knew no failure but deep down,his will was wavering!
