Chapter 87: Behaving Immaturely

The next day came and went like any other day with lectures from morning till late in the evening. I had to say, I got too used to staying at home that I didn't even want to go to school.

Lectures were long and everywhere was dull. Although the case about Kel and Eric had been swept under the carpet, she still didn't come to school.

I decided to take the bus instead of going back with the driver. I wanted to use that opportunity to see the city and to my surprise, Gerard agreed to it.

As each day passes, I get to see a new version of him that I never knew and honestly, I like him more and more. The thought of Gerard made me smile but I didn't let it distract me from my main purpose.

While on the bus, I stood because there wasn't any space on the seats left but I wasn't bothered at all. I wanted to see the city and check for any available vacancies.

Even though Elizabeth had given me her card and asked me to give her a call when I feel like it, I really didn't see the need to.

After all, she's an old woman and working with her would look as though I was extorting from her simply because she was old and had no one around.

I'd rather work where I know I'm not being favoured because I know the owner but rather, I'll want to get benefits because of my hard work.

The bus entered a pothole and I bumped into the person in front of me. "I'm sorry..." I immediately apologized and she smiled at me.

"Let me guess, this is your first time standing in a bus," she asked with a warm smile on her face and I nodded embarrassedly.

She stretched one of the hands forward for a shake while the other hand held onto the support.

"Hy, my name is Madison, but you can call me Madi."

I smiled and shook her hand hurriedly in other to gain my balance. "Ayla... My name is Ayla. Nice to meet you."

She raised her brow for a second but her gaze returned to normal almost instantly. "Where are you headed?" she asked.

"Jordan Fitz," I responded and she nodded and smiled.

"I'm also going that way. I'm on my way to see a friend."

I nodded okay but wanted the conversation to end there because this era isn't the more reliable. People have become more ruthless and violence is everywhere.

"Anyway, it's nice to meet you." she smiled and turned around and I smiled as well.

She didn't look harmful in fact, she looked cool but I couldn't risk giving her any more information.

It got to my stop and I alighted, so did Madison but she was going in the same direction and I didn't think too much of it because she said she was visiting a friend in the same area.

I went on and put an air pod in my ear as I walked to the estate. I didn't look back to check if she was still following because it wasn't any of my business.

Finally, I got to the apartment but when I turned around, I saw Madison following me to the apartment.

'Is she a serial killer or an armed rubber?' I thought to myself but then again, she couldn't be any of these because the guards at the gate would not let her in without a pass so she definitely knew someone here.

I waved to her and she waved back but still kept coming to the apartment. I had waved to see if she would go another way but she didn't.

Awkward.

I went in and because the door had a code, I guessed she wouldn't be able to get in anyway.

As soon as I came in, I heard Gerard's door shut. My face brightened up and I smiled just by knowing he was home waiting for me.

My eyes glimmered when I saw him wearing a white shirt that was very fitted and stuck to his body like glue with black pants.

This was the first time I was seeing him in white clothes but I had to admit that he looked 'Hot'.

'Damn Ayla, behave yourself.' I cautioned myself and smiled at him awkwardly and he inched closer to me.

He greeted me with a hug and kiss but didn't remove his hand from my waist even after that.

"How was school?" he asked looking down at me with a warm expression on his face.

I planned to tell him that it was stressful and boring but seeing him like this, I just responded shortly. "Fine."

He smiled and held my hand pulling me to the dining room. "Come I made you something."

He just completed his statement when the doorbell rang. He raised his brow surprised that someone was at the door and so was I.

I totally forgot that Madison was following me because I was distracted by Gerard's beautiful appearance.

He went to the door and peeked through the

peephole in the door and saw who it was. His expression darkened but he still opened the door anyway.

"Hey Gerard, what up." Madison smiled even though she knew that he didn't want to see her.

Gerard looked up then back at her. "The ceiling." he said this so casually that Madison didn't even understand for a second.

She looked up then finally understood and laughed. "Do you always have to be so formal? At least, let me in first." she tried to push her way in but was stopped by Gerard.

He was taking long so I decided to go and check on him. I noticed he was standing by the door and not letting the person in.

I raised my neck to see who it was but I couldn't get a clear view. I was starving and couldn't wait for him to be done.

I walked up to him and used my index finger to poke him a little. Gerard turned and looked at me then I explained.

"I will just go and bath," I said to him but before he could respond, I heard a familiar voice from outside.

"Ayla? Is that you?"

I furrowed my brow then remembered that Madison had been following me. Gerard turned to face Madison at the door and responded.

"You should leave." his voice was cold and he sounded a little angry.

"Is this how you treat a friend? How mean?" she retorted.

It was only then that I realized she wasn't following me but Gerard was the friend she mentioned visiting on the bus.

"She's your friend?" I asked Gerard surprised.

"No"

"Yes."

They answered at the same time and I couldn't help but smile.

"Why are you keeping her at the door? Let her in." I requested and Gerard sighed then opened the door.

"Ha! You're so mean." Madison lashed and Gerard glared at her causing her to look around awkwardly.

"I'll just take a quick shower. Don't leave before I return." I smiled at her and rushed to the room.

I have always wanted to meet one of Gerard's friends but aside from the doctor who helped me at ESSENCE, I didn't know any other friend of his so meeting Madison was just great.

Gerard stared at Madison angrily. "Why did you come?" his voice was cold and she could feel the temperature of the room drop by a few degrees.

"Well, I didn't exactly plan to come here but I saw Ayla for the first time and got curious. Don't even think that I came here because of you because you don't hold that much importance in my life." she angrily replied knowing that Gerard would not do anything because Ayla was in the house and he couldn't lose his temper because of the curse so she was safe.

Gerard was so furious that he got up from the couch and just walked away. He didn't want to spend another second with her.

Madison smiled feeling more like a friend than an assistant he calls when he needed some advice.

She sighed and stared at the neat housed them scoffed. "He never changes does he?" she whispered to herself.

Soon, Ayla came back. She looked so tantalizing even for Madison. 'No wondered he fell hard, she's too breathtaking even I feel intimidated.'

"I'll get you something to drink." I smiled at her and walked to the fridge.

I wasn't sure what she would like so I smiled chose randomly. "I placed a glass in front of her and turned the fruit juice in it."

"This is fine," she responded.

Gerard soon joined but he didn't look happy at all. He watched Madison drink to her satisfaction and the next thing I heard was shocking.

"Aren't you going home? You've overstayed your welcome." he was so rude that I felt hurt for Madison.

"Your words don't affect me, you should know by now," she responded with a deliberate smile on her face causing Gerard's gaze to turn dark.

I enjoyed watching both of them fight because it was the first time I got to see Gerard behave immaturely.
