Chapter 6 Quinn’s visit
Lucien continued driving not bothered about her countenance , he didn’t care if she tore up or something .
She was a lot of headache to him already .
Derick tried calming Lucia down at the back but she continued sobbing .
” I thought we are friends , is there something wrong” Lucia whispered to Derick.
” Yes you are but you see Lucien is kind of , he has anger issues . This minute he is happy, the other minute he goes angry. ” Derick said hoping Lucien buys his point .
The sound of the shutting of the door made Derick know that they had gotten to Lucien’s house .
How did he drive so far .
“Wow ” Lucia said on viewing the house .
” I don’t think I have been here before , this house just feels new . No connection at all” Lucia said looking at Derick .
” I don’t know ” he said and shrugged his shoulders .
” Welcome back boss , welcome sir Derick and miss …” Thelma the housekeeper said waiting for Lucia to answer.
” Oh I am Lucia and I am not miss ” Lucia said revealing her perfect dentition .
” Do you have something cooked up because I think she would be hungry ” Lucien said sitting down on the couch .
” Yes I will just set up the table ” Thelma said and left .
” You have a nice housekeeper , she should know me right ” Lucia said smiling.
” No ” Derick and Lucien shouted .
“She doesn’t, I employed her newly ” Lucien said ruffling his hair .
He had totally forgotten that Thelma would be at home and she might tell Lucia she had been hired a year ago .
” Ok and you do have a nice couch ” Lucia said using her hands to feel the couch .
” Thank you and stop being a talkative ” Lucien said tired already of her .
” I am not a talkative ” Lucia snapped .
” Yes you are ” Lucien replied back .
” I am not
” You are .
” Food is served ” Thelma said from the dinning .
” Oh thank God for coming in between these two .” Derick appreciated earning him a glare from Lucien.
They walked to the table and sat down .
” Hmm wow so appetizing ,” Lucia said and sniffed the air .
” Can I have those chicken wings ” Lucia said looking at Lucien who was close to it .
” Serve yourself and stop disturbing me .” Lucien snapped .
“I will help you Lucia ” Thelma said wondering what was wrong with her boss .
He has never been so worked up this way .
Something’s up .
” Thank you Miss ” Lucia said and watched Thelma serve her .
Derick winked at Lucien and earned a glare.
” This tastes so good . Mind if you could teach me ” Lucia said and Lucien palmed his face .
” With all pleasures , I don’t mind . When ever you come visiting ” Thelma said ignorantly.
” I would be staying here for the time being till I get my memories back ” Lucia said and Lucien banged the table .
“Thats it , you talk to much , Get up ” Lucien said and pulled Lucia up from her side of the table and climbed up the stairs .
” Lucien calm down ” Derick shouted from the dinning but Lucien didn’t bother replying.
His main aim was to talk to Lucia .
He opened the guest room that was sparkling neat and furnished .
“Why do you hate me , I thought we are friends ” Lucia said sitting on the bed and sobbing .
” I don’t hate you neither do I love you , I just want you to know that I don’t know you , I don’t know your name either . I saw you unconcious by the side of the road and j decided to help you not knowing you won’t realize your self when you wake up .” Lucien explained .
“You mean you don’t know me at all , I am a stranger , even Derick is a stranger ” Lucia said in tears and Lucien nodded .
” I don’t want you to be a cry baby or something . I just want you to brace yourself up and try to get your memories faster so you can go back to your family . ” Lucien said and took a long look at Lucia whose face was soaked with tears and walked out from the room walking into Derick who was standing by the door.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
” Why would you tell her the truth now ” Derick said .
” I had to , she just had to know . So she won’t be clingy around me like I am her friend or something because I don’t know her . “Lucien said and walked away .
Derick looked at Lucia’s door for sometime before thinking of whether to go in .
After some thinking , he walked in .
“Please i want to be alone Derick , please ” Lucia said and Derick sighed before walking out.
Lucia felt her world crashing , he doesn’t know her , he doesn’t even know her at all.
Is Lucia even her name
Who are her family ?
Lucien teared up the more that she felt her head would soon burst .
Slowly her eyes fluttered closed and she fell asleep .
….
“Quinn why can’t you just postpone this meeting to the summer , your brother would be so surprised to see you ” Mrs Spencer said .
” Mom I really need to see him , I miss him. He misses me too I know . That house would be so boring for him . He really needs me there ” Quinn said packing up her things.
“Stop acting like your brother is a kid ” Mrs Spencer said .
” I am not . California here I come ” Quinn said jumping making her mum shake her head at her childishness .
