CHAPTER 19 ~~
RYAN’S POV
I walked to the side lobby away from Deena’s hospital room.
~”Ryan meet Tristan my boyfriend” ~ Deena’s words kept ringing in my ears.
When did all that happen, when I’ve always been there for her.
Does this mean I’ve lost in the game of love? I haven’t even fought and I’ve lost already. I uttered in my head feeling so much pain in my heart.
My phone started ringing, I looked at my phone it’s Evan calling.
“Perfect timing Evan” I uttered then took the call.
“Bro how’s Deena? I’m a bit worried about her. Is she fine now? Have she woken up?” Evan asked over the phone.
“That’s so unlike you to worry about Deena. What are you thinking in your head? You don’t get worried without wanting for something in return” I said and he chuckled.
“What do you take me for? I’m not the devil’s agent, although I get heartless sometimes but we grew up together so I feel sorry for her. This is the first she’s having such a fatal accident in her profession” He said and I nodded because his words made some sense.
“Don’t try to fish out gossip from me, don’t worry Deena’s fine and she’s still at the hospital” I said.
“What’s wrong Ryan? You don’t sound fine. Did something else happen?” He asked curiously.
He sure is my twin brother.
“Nothing really but Evan, I have a question” I uttered slowly.
“Question? Go ahead I’m all ears” He cut in sharply.
“If you’ve liked a girl for a very long time and you’ve always been there for her and suddenly you found out she got herself a boyfriend already. What would you do? Will you give up on the love you have for her or try to fight for your love?” I asked curiously and he chuckled.
“You’re asking the right person” He br@gged and I rolled my eyes.
“Deena got a boyfriend? How did she manage to do that? How did she manage to pick out from the thousands of guys chasing after her?” Evan asked curiously.
“What are you saying Evan?” I asked with a little frown.
“What else, of course I’m talking about Deena. There’s only one girl you’ve ever liked and that’s Deena. Who’s her boyfriend? Is he reputable? Is he handsome? Is he a celebrity? Is he rich?” Evan asked curiously.
“This isn’t part of the answers you should be giving me for the question I asked you” I Gr0-ned.
“Relax bro. I’m asking you this questions because that’s the only way I can be able to help you with your question so go ahead and answer” He said seriously.
“Well he’s goodlooking” I uttered and Evan cut in sharply.
“That’s Deena for you”
“Can you let me finish up..” I complained.
“I’m sorry please go ahead”
“He’s not a celebrity and he looks familiar as well and he’s a professional at his job for all I can remember. He’s a well known reporter and I don’t know if he’s rich and his name is Tristan” I said slowly.
“Wait a minute… You mean Tristan Cho?” He asked curiously and I nodded before answering.
“Yes, do you know him?” I asked.
“Of course I do, he has interviewed me sometime in the past and I can remember vividly how good he was at his job but did he end up making Deena his girlfriend because the two most difficult I know of is one, getting Layla’s attention, two making Deena your girlfriend” He pointed out and I laughed.
“What do you mean? Have you asked Deena out before?” I asked curiously.
“Not me but so many of my friends have tried getting close to Deena but she wasn’t even bulging and to make it even worse. She doesn’t go out on dates. Bro do you think you will be able to win against Tristan? It sounds like Deena likes him already” He said and I looked away worriedly.
“Are you indirectly telling me to give up?” I Gr0-ned and he laughed.
“Of course not, I’m the last person who would advise you to give up because I don’t give up without putting up a fight. I’ve got some suggestions for you to be able to win Deena’s heart. First go back to Deena’s hospital room. You shouldn’t give them free chance to get too close to each other. They just started the relationship so they will be cautious when getting closer to each other in front of people. Go now and I will take you the rest when you’ve done this one” He said and I nodded.
“Got it and I will treat you to a delicious meal if this works out” I said with a smile.
AUTHOR’S POV
Tristan you can’t flop at this. First impression matters. With the look of things, Deena’s mum is a very calculative woman. I should be careful with my words. Tristan uttered in his head.
“Ma, I’m sorry if I made you misun-derstand my intentions. I know what position the Gu family hold in the society but I’m not after all that. My presence here is to give Deena all the happiness she deserves because I believe strongly in myself that I can make that happen, I’m not perfect but I will make sure the one I will be perfect at is loving Deena” Tristan said with a blank expression and Sansan looked at Deena in surprise.
“I had no idea you’re such a sweet talker. Is this how you sweet talked my daughter into being your girlfriend?” Sansan asked still faking her acting.
“Of course not ma, I’m not that good at words but I’m a man of my words, I don’t make empty promises or statement. I’ve told you my intentions so I will have to make it happen” Tristan added and Deena smiled widely.
“Since you’ve said it then I will have to take your word for it. If you ever think of hurting my daughter, I will break your bones” Sansan said as she clutched her fist in one of her palm.
“You don’t have to be worried about that ma” Tristan said anxiously and his phone started ringing.
The phone was on the table next to Deena’s bed.
“Tristan it’s your mum” Deena said and Tristan walked to the table and picked up his phone.
“Please excuse me” He said and took the call placing the phone on his ears.
“Mum, I’m with my girlfriend right now” Tristan informed with a smile then went out of the room.
“Deena did you hear that, he told his mum about you. His intentions are pure indeed” Sansan said excitedly as Tristan left the room.
“Mum I had no idea Tristan was this serious about me, I wouldn’t have heard those silent beautiful words without you mum. You did well” Deena uttered grinning from ear to ear.
“Tristan did you just say girlfriend?” Abigail ( Tristan’s mum) asked over the phone.
“Yes my girlfriend. Mum she finally agreed to be my girlfriend” Tristan said excitedly.
“If you’re with your girlfriend right now then who’s she?” Abigail asked.
“Who’s who mum?” Tristan asked curiously.
“I thought she’s your girlfriend?” Abigail asked curiously.
“Who are you talking about mum? Is someone there with you?” He asked curiously.
“I saw her in your graduation album, she placed her hand on your shoulder so I was thinking you finally agreed to ask her out”
Placed her hands on my shoulders? Who could that be? Is Mum talking about Layla? Tristan gasped in his head.
“Mum is that Layla you’re talking about?” Tristan asked curiously.
“Yes, Layla. She has become so pretty and she said the both of you are…” Abigail pursed and Tristan clenched his fist.
“Mum don’t fall for that. We’re not even close, how are we supposed to be in a relationship. Mum please give the phone to Layla. I want to speak with her, how on earth did she get there?” Tristan questioned.
“Didn’t you give her the address yourself?” Abigail asked.
“Of course I didn’t, you know so well. How I dislike disclosing my parental background to anyone. Mum please give the phone to Layla” Tristan said seriously and Abigail went back to the sitting room.
“Layla, Tristan is on the phone. He wants to speak with you” Abigail said and hand the phone over to Layla.
“Okay ma” Layla said politely then placed the phone on her ears.
“Take your time on the phone okay, I will go back to work” Abigail said and went to her study room.
“Layla what are you doing in my parent’s house? How on earth did you get there?” Tristan fired and Layla smiled.
“I’ve got my ways and it’s not like I haven’t been here before so why are you acting all cold” Layla uttered with a smile.
“Why would you even go there? I’m not in the country currently so what’s your motive for going there? Don’t you know what basic manners are? You shouldn’t visit where you’re not invited. You didn’t even tell me you’re going there. What kind of impression do you want to impose on my mother? You can see how busy she is and without invitation you went there. Let’s make this short, before you ruin things even more for me, just go back home” Tristan said coldly and Layla frowned.
“You know so well why I’m doing this. Of course I’ve got some ulterior motive for coming here. Tristan you’ve been avoiding me ever since you came back from Beijing. Is everything okay?” Layla asked calmly and Tristan rolled his eyes.
“Everything’s not okay until you stop this. Let’s have dinner when I get back to China but firstly you should leave before my Dad arrives, you wouldn’t like his tone. Friendly reminder. Go give the phone to my mum” Tristan instructed.
“Alright, you don’t have to scare me like that” Layla pouted then went to Abigail’s study.
“Tristan’s still on the phone. I will take my leave ma” Layla said handing Abigail’s phone back to her.
“Thanks for visiting and I’m sorry I couldn’t pay much attention to you, I’ve got lots of work on my hands” Abigail said politely.
“It’s okay ma, thank you for letting me in. Bye bye” Layla said politely then left for the car garage.
“Tristan you chased her away?” Abigail asked.
“Of course I did, what’s she doing there anyways. Mum don’t misun-derstand my relationship with Layla. I have a girlfriend now so I think I lessened your worries” Tristan said with a smile.
“I’m glad to hear that but when am I meeting your girlfriend? You will have to give me heads up so I clear out my schedule” Abigail said with a smile.
“Soon mum but not now because she’s at the hospital, she had an accident” Tristan said sadly.
“How bad is it?” She asked curiously.
“She had a leg fracture”
“I know you’re not currently in China right now but how about you bring her back so I look after her. It’s my specialty and field and yet you didn’t even inform me. Bring her back home, let’s take care of her together” Abigail said with a smile and Tristan smiled widely.
“Thank you so much mum”
“Anything for my son” Abigail smiled.
