Chapter 82
He dispose the plastic and made to leave but Layla stopped him. She stood right in front of him. ” I’m sorry please. I really didn’t mean to drink too much, you should know it ain’t me.. I was just.. I was so depressed and devastated cause of what mom and dad’s been making us go through, I’m really sorry.. please ” She rushed at once.
” Layla.. ” Shane called softly. ” I love you but.. ”
” I love you too ” Layla cut him off knowingly. ” Promise me you won’t drink too much again? ” Shane asked and she smiled cutely. ” I promise ” She muttered and he also smiled.
” Gosh, you sure are my weakness ” He said as he lifted her up. He moved closer to the available table and placed her on it with his hands resting on the table as they guarded her thighs on both sides.
He smashed his lips tenderly on hers immediately, kissing her mildly and softly and she responded with the same pace.
** Bryan’s Apartment **
” Okay Bryan, I’m sorry ” Mirah said with a groan but Bryan ignored her totally as he kept on munching on his bread.
Mirah drew her seat closer to his and she was beside him. ” I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to get drunk. I swear I wasn’t in my right mind, I actually thought it was you else you know if even in my drunken state, I could have punched him, preventing him from touching me. I’m sorry and thanks that you came at the right time.. ” She said but he still didn’t say a word.
She groaned cutely. ” Bryan.. ” She called and this time, he stopped. He turned to her with a stern look. ” Can you stop seriously! ” He snapped almost angrily that Mirah flinched a bit.
” Are you really mad at me? I said I’m sorry.. ”
” Why would you be so careless to drink without me. I mean you two were partially drunk and had no knowledge of what was going on.. the guy could have gotten down with you and you could have easily gave in, the same way you almost gave I’m before I barged in. And then.. what are you gonna say to me then? Nothing.. absolutely nothing. You would pretend no thing happened ” He snapped and she groaned again.
” Come on, I wouldn’t do that. I would have told you really that it happened ” She said without thinking. Bryan let out a scoff and turned to her unbelievably.
” Oh really? Mirah listen to yourself! You would tell your boyfriend someone else had s*x with you!? Huh!? ” He snapped that she flinched.
” I lost my appetite ” He made to stand but Mirah pulled him back to his seat forcefully. ” Please.. okay I’m really sorry.. I wouldn’t say that, I just wanted you to forgive me.. please ” She begged cutely.
Bryan looked at her after hesitating for a while. He sighed softly. He held her face into his palm and he rubbed it gently while Mirah stared at him with a cute baby face.” Have you forgiven me? ” She asked slowly and he smiled before nodding. ” Yeah ” He muttered.
Mirah hugged him immediately and he hugged her back. ” I’m sorry.. I really am ” She muttered and he only smiled, hugging her more tightly.
** The Girl’s Apartment **
” And where are you girls coming from? ” Mrs Brown asked Layla and Mirah who walked in tiredly. ” Work ” They both chorused at once.
Mrs Brown raised her brows. ” You two didn’t come home last night. You sure know that right? ” She asked with a tiny scoff.
” Yeah, we went on a business trip ” Mirah muttered as the two girls advanced to the sitting room while Mrs Brown followed behind.
They both landed on the couch. ” I thought you two work at different companies? ” Mrs Brown asked with a raised brows but got no answer. ” Layla! ” She called but she only heard silent snores as a reply.
” Oh ” She muttered began walking away leaving the two girl sleeping comfortably on the couch.

” Come on, don’t be scared.. ” Bryan urged Mirah but she shook her head vehemently. They were still inside Bryan’s car. Mirah had refused to alight from the car. She was suddenly feeling shy and nervous at the moment.
” Come on.. mom and dad are waiting for us ” Bryan said and she bit her lips in regret. ” I shouldn’t have agreed to come here with you ” She muttered and tho Bryan knew she was scared at that moment, he was forced to chuckle at her reaction.
Mirah turned to him almost angrily and he wrapped up his smile into a frown immediately.
” They like me right? You’re sure? ” She asked to be sure and Bryan nodded. ” Yeah I really am ” He replied.
” They won’t reject me ’cause I’m poor right? ” Mirah asked and Bryan’s lips turned into a frown.
” Come on, why would you say that? ” He scolded and she sighed as she bit her lips slowly. ” I’m sorry.. I just don’t think I would be able to face rejection ” She muttered and Bryan turned her face to his some few inches away from his. He put her hands into his palm and squeezed them softly and slowly.
” You trust me right? ” He asked and she nodded. He smiled lightly. ” Then nothing would go wrong… I promise ” He said and she smiled lightly before kissing him deeply like it was some sort of thing that would calm her nerves down and seemed it worked. Her nerves cooled down immediately they broke away from the kiss.
” Are you okay now? ” Bryan asked and she nodded slowly. With this, they both alighted from the car and headed straight inside.
** The Girl’s Apartment **
” So how was it? ” Layla asked and Mirah smiled when she reminisced on her meeting with her in laws. They received her warmly and accepted her immediately they set their eyes on her. It was such a peaceful meeting.
” His parents liked me. They even talked about us producing babies as soon as possible ” She whispered the last part into Layla’s ear and she chuckled as Mirah moved her lips away from her skin.
” Really? ” Mirah asked and she nodded. ” Wow, that’s really nice. It’s such a nice thing for two lovers’ parents to be okay with their children partners, not like mine ” Layla muttered. Mirah sighed as she glanced at Layla’s sad face.
” Come on, I’m sure they would accept him sooner or later when they realize they have no choice again. You should just keep low for a while and don’t tell them about you and Shane’s relationship. As time goes on, we would find a solution. Or would you break up with Shane and do what your parents want? ” Mirah asked but Layla let out a sigh.
” That’s where the problem lies again. I love Shane so much and I can’t leave him for any reason not even for mom and dad’s reasons but.. I don’t want to upset my parents. I have never done that and I don’t want to do it now ” She muttered.
” So you would break up with Shane and find someone not as rich as he is? ” Mirah asked in a scoff.
” Of course, I can’t do that but I don’t know what to do. I should try to find a way to convince them, I guess… ” She muttered oblivious of what to do at that moment.
** Shane’s Apartment **
” Do you want me to talk to them? I could try, who knows they could listen? ” Shane said but Layla shook her head. ” No, I don’t think they would. My parents are strong headed, they mustn’t find out we’re dating either, it’s gonna be a disaster ” She muttered and Shane sighed.
” They having hatred for wealthy people isn’t okay, I mean not everyone of us are wicked ” Shane pouted like a baby and Layla chuckled. ” You look really cute right now ” She muttered, staring at him.
Shane chuckled before switching back to his normal face. ” How about we get your grandmother talk to them. They could listen you know? ” Shane suggested but Layla shook her head again.
Shane raised his brows, trying to understand why she did that. ” My grandma is the same with dad. Their personality is the same. She hated rich people too ” Layla muttered and Shane sighed.
” Now, I don’t know what to suggest anymore ” He said and Layla chuckled. ” So what do we do now? ” Shane asked Layla, hoping for a positive response.
” Let’s just keep our relationship as a secret for now ” She muttered.
