"Oh God! What the hell have I gotten myself into?!" Khalid hissed as he got into his car. "I just hope she doesn't die, whatever! I don't want any blood on my head. Imagine the idiot! She got into the road just like that, making me feel guilty over her own mistake. What's my business? I'm going home and I'm never coming here again. I've helped her enough, haven't I? I should be at the club now enjoying my life but I end up coming to the hospital. Fuck! I'm going home!"

Khalid turned on the engines and reversed back before steering into the road. It was already 10:00pm by the time.

Ring! Ring!! Ring!!!

Ring! Ring!! Ring!!!

Khalid's phone kept on vibrating but he didn't pick. Everything about the accident pissed him up, it's as his his brain was boiling at the moment.

"That girl is just a spoiler! Fuck!!" He hissed once more before looking at the screen of his phone.

The name,  'King D' was boldly written in capital letter but he hissed immediately he saw the name. As if he would drive himself to paradise, Khalid sped up, overtaking most if the vehicles on the road. King D, called over and over again, forcing khalid to pick up the call.

"I'm not coming today, okay? Plans changed!" Khalid started as he put on his earpiece, fixing the earbuds into his ears.

"What?! But we've planned for this for long now. Especially now that you're back to Naija."

"Damn! Something happened today my guy! I'm not in the mood right now. I'm so fucking pissed about engaging myself into such."

"Lord of Wealth!" David hailed. "What happened?"

"I accidentally hit someone on my way to the club.  I had to rush her to the fucking hospital!"

"Awwww! She's a girl! How pretty is she?" Curiosity laced David's voice.

"Shut up motherfucker! She's not my type of girl okay, so don't even dream of it." He warned over the phone.

"C'mon, you can introduce me to her now. If you're not ready." David joked over the phone.

"Whatever! I'll see you tomorrow, okay."

"Okay. Bye."

Khalid takes the earpiece off his ears, as his eyes were fixed to the road. He pressed a button on the satnav as music started playing. He increased the volume a but, driving faster into the road.

Khalid is a 20 year old, spoilt, rich kid with the bad boy, I-don't-care vibes. A Nigerian born in America, Kahlid is the only child of his billonaire parents.

Well, he just came back home to Nigeria after his studies from Oxford University, England. And today; Khalid, as spoilt as he may be had no option than to take unconsious Zainab to the hospital. All on his schedule is to enjoy life in Nigeria or a while before he goes for his master's in India.

Also, his buddy, David also known as 'King D', has been Khalid friend for a couple of months now. The Maikuddi's, Khalid's parent had to introduce him to a son of one of their closest friends so, David is just like a family friend. It's been a months now since since Khalid cane back to Nigeria but all on his mind is to live life till fullest but Zainab ruined his plan for the day. He'd planned to check every club in the city of Abuja before leaving for his masters. The thoughts were playing on his mind when he suddenly made a swerve to his street. Finally getting home, the authomatic gate opened as he drove in.

The compound looked executive and the tall mansion looked like a beautiful mountain in it. Still pissed, Khalid patched his car at the parking lot and walked inside.
