Bab 32: Special

I focused my sole attention on the clock in my room as it made its usual ticking sound. Putting my undivided attention on anything at this point was all i could do. I was lost on what to do or even how i should react at this point.

"You do know i'm not going to eat you or anything Rica" I heard Dili suddenly say out of nowhere.

As you've probably guessed, Dili and I were currently in my room sitting on my bed. And please don't get any funny ideas from what i just said. While i was sitting down on a far end of the bed, Dili was also on another end. Good thing my bed was big enough for that.

Pouting I replied. "Of course I know that"

"Well the huge distance between us says otherwise" He released a low chuckle gesturing to the huge gap between us. I couldn't still believe that my mother agreed to this. My heart has been beating insanely irregularly since we got to my room. I was admittedly nervous.

"Fine" I said with a sigh. I stood up and moved closer to were he was. Now looking back i realize that my actions were indeed stupid.

"Yes much better" he told me with a mega watt smile.

After that nobody said anything. The air seemed somewhat dense. It was almost like neither of us had anything to say, for me that was.... you could even say normal, but for Dili it was down straight unusual. I mean it was like he always had what to say all the time, so this was indeed strange.

It seemed like Dili finally got his mojo back because he finally spoke.

"So your mom is...." He dragged his word for an unusually long time before he continued "Nice?" his final words at the end of the day came out as if it were a question.

I let out a laugh at this "No need to sugarcoat your words, i am well aware that she's an A grade bitch" It might have sounded crude to the ear but alas it was still the truth. Don't get me wrong i do love my mother, i love both my parents even though they don't seem to reciprocate those feelings. But it was no secret that my mom's attitude was crap.

An awkward look over took his face as i spoke. "I wouldn't really exactly place it plainly like that, but yeah, its quiet close to that" I smiled a little it was cute that he was trying to be nice.

Silence reigned again shortly after that, i didn't want it to stick so i asked him a question.

"Did you know about this dinner?"

"No i didn't. I actually found out today just like you did. I told my mom i could come alone and that she should rest in the hospital but she stubbornly insisted that she comes" Oh that explains a lot then.

"I'm sure she would be fine. She's a strong woman" I tried reassuring him as i noticed a worried expression on his face.

He sighed but still managed to give me a smile "I hope so"

"Right and all, where did you go to soo urgently in the morning. You left me in the library. You didn't really say much in the note that you wrote" i tried to hide my disappointed tone at the end. Truth be told i was looking forward to still seeing Dili by my side when i woke up, but when i didn't see him i was a little bit disappointed.

"Oh that" he said in realization "There was a mild crises in the company and i had to go there immediately. I was thinking on waking you up but i wanted you to rest well. Sorry about that" He looked genuinely apologetic so i did forgive him.

"It's alright"

"And also i have been meaning to ask" I began.

Dili raised a questioning eyebrow. "Ah nawa o, is this twenty questions or what?" I gave him a look.

"Just kidding, ask away"

"As i was saying, i have been meaning to ask, Just what is the name of your family's company" I already had a guess, but if it was what i was thinking then i was wrong about one thing.

"Right, it's true sef i haven't told you. The name is Zora's Enterprise" Yup just like i thought, i was indeed wrong about one thing. Dili's family wasn't merely the word 'rich', they were infact beyond the measly boundary of wealthy.

Everyone and i mean everyone knew Zora's Enterprise. It was a global enterprise. It was situated in almost all the countries of the world. That was how big it was. They were specialized in different areas, Oil, entertainment, coal mining. You name it.

Who would have thought that i was engaged to the heir of the enterprise. It all made perfect sense now. My parents really wanted this engagement because they knew they would benefit greatly.

"Oh" i muttered.

"Hmm you don't seem all that surprised. First time i'm seeing such a reaction from someone after finding out the name of my family's company" It's not that i wasn't shocked at all, it was just that i hid it well.

"Just show's i'm special" I playfully shrugged.

"And special you indeed are" He said easily agreeing with me. Not what i was expecting but i'm not complaining. I blushed a little at his statement.

"Oh right, i almost forgot to tell you. You look extraordinarily beautiful today Rica, not like you aren't every other day" He was smooth i will give him that. He sure did know how to make a girl blush multiple times in a roll.

"Thanks. You don't look too bad yourself" And i was infact saying the truth, he did look good. But unlike me that was wearing what was a formal gown, Dili was dressed casual. It was really unfair that the boy could look good even when he wasn't trying as much.

"I..." The shouting of our names from downstairs made Dili to halt what he was about to say.

The screams of our names was really alarming and very loud. It seemed urgent so we both rushed downstairs. Dili was obviously faster than me as he was a sports person. But we did take some time in reaching there being that my room was on the top floor.

When we finally reached downstairs the sight that greeted us was horrible. Dili and I stared wide eyed in horror at the scene before us. I spotted both my parents with worried looks trying to help Mrs Uzora who was apparently bent over on the floor vigorously coughing out thick chunks of blood from her mouth.

And to say I was reassuring Dili few minutes ago that everything would be alright. It turned out that everything 'WASN'T' alright at the end of the day.
