Chapter 256: Didn't you sleep with him?

Lisa's apartment.

Lisa made a cup of coffee and set it in front of Paula and sat across her on the bed. They were in Paula's room.

''Paula, are you alright? Yesterday, I'm sorry for my words earlier on'' Lisa knew her words were a little overboard and Paula had the habit of overthinking, so she was worried that her words might have hurt her.

''No, it's alright''

''But, how did you end up with that man? Did you two have sex?''

''Lisa'' Paula sniffed and Lisa pulled a tissue box towards her.

''Look, cry it out if you want to. Don't bottom everything inside of you''

''That man is quite good. He checked me into the hotel and left''

''You mean he didn't try to take advantage of you?''

''It could be said that I was the one who took advantage of him'' Paula said and started narrating everything that happened the previous night to Lisa. The latter listened carefully and couldn't help smiling.

''Whoa, this is why there is a saying that, everyone has a wild side. I guess your wild side came to play last night. But, you should have gone with the flow. That was a perfect time to get laid''

''Lisa, stop messing around''

''I am serious. That man is delicious meat and you just let him go like that? Oh my, that a**, that steady chest and slender waist. I can only imagine the kind of body hiding inside that shirt''

''Lisa, stop drooling already''

''I know. He is not mine. Don't worry, this man is yours, I will fight you for him''

''Since when did he become mine? What nonsense are you spouting?''

''Paula, don't tell me you didn't take his number? Are you going to let him go just like that?'' Lisa shook her head. She couldn't believe her friend was going to mull over spilt milk. She wasn't the type to do that. that is why she preferred a no strings attached kind of relationship.

''Lisa, do you think I'm worth it? How can he disrespect me this way? He could have broken up with me in my face. Why did he have to do it through a letter and that too, by a stranger?''

''Gideon, that son of b***h, I cuss him to never find happiness again. His $%^@>>>>>$%^&'' Lisa noticed Paula laughing and she stopped cussing and asked, ''why are you laughing?''

''Aren't you cussing him to make me laugh?''

''Right. then, do you feel better now?''

Paula nodded her head, ''I feel a lot better now, but, I want to meet him. I want an explanation from him''

''How about this? Let's go and meet him so that he can clarify things.''

Healthy Mind Private Hospital.

Lisa pulled over in front of the private hospital of Leo's senior. This was where Leo was also working as a dermatologist.

Paula released a breath and turned to Lisa, ''Lise, do you think this is a good idea?'' she was beginning to feel that coming to that place wasn't such a bright idea after all.

''Don't be such a scare bee okay? Listen if we don't go you will never know why he broke up with you. Now come on let's go in there and get all the answers you need'' Lisa got down from the car and went over to the passenger side. She opened the door and held Paula's hand.

Paula got down and looked towards the hospital and saw Gideon walking out with a woman. His hand was wrapped around the woman's waist and they looked intimate together.

''Lisa, look. That is Gideon, right?'' Paula pointed at the couple and Lisa turned and saw them too. She nodded her head.

''Yes, that is Gideon. Lord, that son of a bitch'' Lisa went haywire and was about to rush over when Paula held her hand, but Lisa's voice was loud enough to make the couple stop in their strides towards their car.

When Gideon saw the two ladies, he said something briefly to the woman who smiled and went towards the car while he walked towards them.

''Hey, you bastard. You are already f**king another woman after dumping my friend last night?'' Lisa asked angrily.

''Watch your words, Elisa'' Gideon said as he stood in front of them with a smug expression.

''Why don't you watch yourself, and for the record, my name is not Elisa but Lisa. Don't you dare put an 'E' before my name you jerk''

''I thought I made myself clear in the letter? What are you still doing here?'' Gideon ignored Lisa and turned to Paula.

''Gideon'' Paula clutched her fingers around her purse.

''Let me speak, Paula. We came for answers Gideon. How could you break up with P through a letter without any reason?''

''I made myself clear in the letter, Paula I said it was over between us''

''Gideon you?'' Paula was lost for words. It was like the man before her had suddenly turned into a stranger and she didn't know him at all.

''Gideon, how could you be so heartless? What did Paula do to deserve this?''

Paula looked at him and a tear fell from her eyes. She bit her lips hard to control herself from breaking down.

''I'm sorry Paula but I was clear in the letter so please stop following me around''

''Who is that woman?'' Lisa asked but Paula held her hand and shook her head.

''Lise, it's okay. Let's go'' Paula said and got into their car.

''Better watch your back, Gideon. You might not know when I will smack your head'' Lisa said to him and got into the car and drove away.

Gideon chuckled and went over to his car and the woman inside asked him, ''who was that, Gideon?''

''The girl I told you about. She just wouldn't let me go. I told her I wasn't interested in her but she went ahead to assume that we had something going on. After hearing of my engagement, she came here to pester me'' he explained to the woman.

''This is why you should associate yourself with people of your social status. Look at the way she dressed and came here? If people see you with her, they would think you belong to their class. These girls have no self-awareness at all'' she felt disgusted by Lisa's short dress and Paula's baggy shorts and star shaped top.

The woman said and Gideon's face distorted but he quickly faked a smile and drove the car away. The woman's family was going to set up a hospital for him, so he had to make sure she liked him.

...

Lisa sighed when she saw how Paula was playing with her food instead of eating. She was just moving the rice side by side with her fork without eating.

Lisa placed her fork down and looked at Paula, ''are you planning to go on hungry games?''

''Huh?'' Paula came back to her senses and looked at her plate. The food was still plenty she hadn't touched it that much.

''Paula, I know that you are having a hard time, but not eating is the worst kind of harm you can do to yourself. This is already the third day and I'm sorry to tell you that I am not going to wait for you to mob around any longer''

''No matter how hard I try Lisa, I can't stop thinking about him, wanting to see him and even wishing that all this was a dream and that Gideon will come back to me. What do I do Lisa?

''Hey I understand you okay? Trust me I do but the truth is you need to try harder and not think about him because the more you think about him the more pain you feel''

''Do you think I will ever be fine?'' Paula looked at her best friend.

''You will be fine. And as for that bastard, Gideon; he is going to regret leaving you. You are the most adorable and likable person in the world. It is his loss that he dumped you. Let's just say that he is blind. He can't see the good that is in front of him''

Paula chuckled and touched Lisa's hand, ''I am so lucky to have you, Lise''

''If you are so lucky, why don't you call that beautiful man and set up a date with him? You haven't called him since that day, right?''

''Oh, right. I totally forgot. I promised to give him a call and pay back the money I owe him. Will he think I scammed him because I didn't call?''

''Didn't you say you promised to pay him in instalments. Call him and give him a part of the money''

''Why do I feel that you are trying to use me to see that man?''

''Oops, I just got caught. I don't care. Call him and set up a meeting with him. Even if he is yours, I can still admire him for myself'' Lisa said and pouted her lips.

''Okay, stop giving me such an adorable face. I won't be able to say no to you. Wait, my phone. I totally forgot that my phone is broken''

''We can go and get a new phone after breakfast''

''I can't believe your tenacity'' Paula said and shook her head. It was decided. She was getting a new phone after their breakfast.
