CHAPTER 15

Prince faked a small cough before, allowing Sunny stand back firmly on her feet.
“Thanks” She muttered, nervously, and turned to the other side.
Prince did the same and called the number but it wasn’t still going throu-gh.
“Did she give me a wrong line or something?? Or maybe she blocked me?? Gosh” He muttered, frustratedly.
Sunny sighed de-eply.
“What’s the matter? Why isn’t he calling me yet?? Gosh!”
Prince quickly sent her a message.
*I’m here now but I can’t reach you*
*I’m also here but I didn’t see your call* Sunny explained, immediately she saw the message.
*But what went wrong?*
*I don’t know, either. How can I find you now?* Sunny asked, walking a bit farther from Prince.
*Where are you, right now?* He asked.
Sunny looked around.
*I’m close to a big phone model ad signboard*
Prince quickly looked up, and saw the signboard. He sighed in relief.
*Seen* He sent and ran there.
To his surprise, he saw Sunny there too. Though, there were a lot of people, standing and walking around.
“We meet again?* Prince raised a brow.
*I…guess so* Sunny for-ced a small smile. written by sommy pearl f.
Prince looked down at his phone.
*What are you wearing?? I’m right there*
*A white top and jean trousers* She sent.
Prince eyes wide-ned. His eyes met with Sunny.
“Why is she wearing the same thing, described here?” He asked, but waved it off when she caught about 3 girls there, wearing the same color and jean, but different styles and patterns.
*You know what,,, can you send a pic of you? That way, I’ll find you easier. There’s a really big crowd right now* Prince was just about to send it when he heard and saw the subway train coming throu-gh.
“Darn it” He muttered, and glanced at his wrist watch.
He looked around a bit more and kept the bag he was holding on a bench.
He quickly ran into the train and sat down, after paying for his ticket.
He inhaled de-eply and after few minutes, the train started moving.
Prince took out his phone and deleted the message.
At once, he wrote down a new one which he sent.

Sunny finally heard a beep and she looked at her phone, quickly.
*I’m sorry but we can’t meet. I wanted to give you the heel you dropped the other day. You don’t have to worry. I left a white bag on the small bench right there. In it, lays your shoe*
Sunny sighed.
“Will we ever meet?” She muttered.
She walked to the bench and saw the bag which she opened.
And truly, she saw her other heel, which made her more surprised.
“How did he get this? Did he see me that day?? Why didn’t he call me?” She muttered, and looked around, hoping to find and recognize him.
****
The train stopped at the last stop, and Prince alighted.
He took a cab which drove him to a small house.
He knocked and the door opened. An elder woman saw him and he smiled.
“Come in” She beckoned.
He smiled and went in.
***
“Hmm” Prince hummed, after sipping the hot tea.
He smiled and looked at his front.
“Mrs Adams? I suppose my coffee crops are doing fine?”
“You’ve nothing to worry about” She smiled.
“Good. I want the account of the crops and fruits by Wednesday”
*You’ll receive them” She nodded.
“Nice. I guess I’ll take my leave now. Thanks for the tea” He stood up, and adjusting his jacket.
“You’re welcome”
She smiled and opened the door.
“I suppose you want to check out the farm before your departure?” She asked.
He chuckled and nodded.
“Anyways, bye and have a great day” He waved.
“Same” She waved, back.
***
Prince smiled as he looked around the big coffee farm.
It was that exact place he took his picture which he used on his profile at A-chat.
Though, he concealed his face using a hat and mask, which hid him, completely as the Coffee Prince.
He chuckled, reminiscing about it.
“Prince?” He heard someone call and he turned around.
Hs gaze met with a pretty, young lady. She was smiling at him.
She was wearing a white top over blue jeans.
For some particular reason, she looked familiar.
Prince just kept staring at her, without saying a word.
“Wait…” The girl whispered, and her smile faded off.
“Don’t tell me you don’t know who I am anymore? You’ve forgotten me already. Hmph!” She teased, grumpily.
Prince gulped and his eyes blinked.
“I’m sorry but who are you?” He asked, softly.

She smiled.
“I met with you the last time here. I remember you, stopping me and asking me to lend you, my hat. I was relunctant and wanted to go on my own, but you took off your mask and showed me your face. I was so happy to see Prince Langford from up close”
“Oh,,, You were the one who took the picture for me too. You are a good photographer, you know. The picture came out so good that I uploaded it as my profile pic at A-chat” Prince smiled.
“Wait,,, You are on A-chat?? I’m also on A-chat! I thought someone like you won’t ever be on such rare app”
Prince smiled.
“What’s your username on A-chat?” She asked.
“Huh- Before Prince could complete his statement, a thief ran past them and snatched the lady purse.
“Thief!” She shouted.
“Give me my bag!!”
“Wait…” Prince held her arm.
“Let me get it for you. Just help me hold my phone. Be careful with it” He handed it to her and started giving the thief a hot pursuit.
She smiled and looked at his phone.
“Huh? He didn’t even lock it” She chuckled. written by sommy pearl f.
He was still online, on A-chat.
She looked around, and checked his recent messages.
“Baby sunshine?” She muttered, and checked their chats.
Afterwards, she looked at her clothes .
“I’m wearing exactly the same thing. What a coincidence. But it bad,,, they never met…still”
“I got it” She heard his loud pa-nting. from behind and she quickly turned.
She smiled and ran to him.
“Here” He gave her the purse.
“Thank you” She muttered, holding it close
“Your phone” She also gave him.
“Thanks” He collected it, and advanced to leave.
“Wait…” She suddenly said.
He turned, quietly to her.
“You have’nt told me yet…”
“What?” He asked.
“What’s your A-chat username?” She asked.
“I’m sorry…but I don’t share my username around” He for-ced a smile.
“Well,,, I don’t share mine but I’m gonna tell you mine”
“I actually don’t nee-
“Its Baby Sunshine. My A-Chat user name” She smiled.
Prince studied her for a while.
“Do….do you know anyone on A-chat bearing, Coffee Farmer?” He asked, slowly.
“Yeah. I do chat with the person,,,
“Why didn’t you show up at the subway today as promised?” He asked.
“cause I didn’t see you” He further said, shaking his head.
“I came but I didn’t see you either” She lied.
Prince looked at her legs. She was wearing black sandals.
“Did you see the bag I left for you, on the bench?” He asked.
She blinked her eyes, and smiled after recollecting the messages she quickly read on his phone, earlier.
“Yes. I saw the stiletto heels. Thanks” She smiled.
He for-ced a smile and nodded.
“But what’s your real name though? Baby sunshine can’t be your name, right?”
She nodded.
“I’m Sandy”
“Its nice to finally meet you Sandy. Who knew we would meet here?”
Sandy chuckled.
“I know right”
“By the way, the number you gave to me wasn’t going throu-gh. Did you block or blacklist my number or something?”
“Oh…That…Sorry, I gave you a wrong number. I wasn’t thinking straight then. I’m sorry. Let me give you the real one”
He nodded and handed his phone to her.
She typed her number and gave it back to him.
“I saved it to baby sunshine,,, if you don’t mind” He told her.
Sandy chuckled, nervously.
“Sure. There’s no problem”
“Okay then. I’ll talk to you later” He waved.
“Wait!!” She said, aloud and ran to him.
“Any problem?” He asked, and she nodded.
“What’s it?” He asked.
“Actually… I just found out that my account was hacked”
“What?! When??”
“Few minutes ago. I don’t know how it happened but it took me unaware. Anyways, I would really appreciate if you ignore all baby sunshine messages. Don’t send a message anymore cause the hacker is manipulating the account”
“Okay? Sure.. Sure” He nodded.
She smiled and nodded.
“Okay bye. Have a nice day and don’t forget to call”
“I won’t. bye” He waved, walking away.
“Yes!” She almost screamed, happily but she composed herself and started walking away, at the opposite direction.
Prince paused, and turned around. Her back didn’t look like baby sunshines’ at all.
As he was still looking it, a call came in. He checked it and saw it was his grandma.
“Its tomorrow. The D-day. Don’t forget!” His grandma chipped, immediately he accepted the call.
“Huhn…Yeah…Yeah…I do remember. I’ll bring her tonorrow” He uttered.
“Bring her to my place. I’ll prepare a grand feast for her and you”
“Sure,,, I…I…will”
Granny chuckled, before, hanging up.
Prince slowly took his hand down and quickly ran to her. written by sommy pearl f.
She stopped and gawked at him.
“What’s it?” She asked, in surprise.
“Baby sun…I mean,,, Sandy? The favor…Can you help me now? I mean,,, with the favor?” He asked, pa-nting ha-rd and fast.
