Chapter 20_____>>>>>>>>Signing the Papers
Hazbullah dropped his phone entering into the bathroom to take his usual night time shower.
He exited the bathroom soon after fully dressed with water dripping down his hair sitting down on the bed."I hope I'm doing the right thing" Hazbullah encouraged himself picking up his phone.
He saw two missed call from Chen and wondered why she called again."What should I save her number as...?" He asked himself starring at the number.
He would not mind saving her number with her full name but Hazbullah sure knew that Karima will mind.
His mother is a very observant human to which he is sure she will be suspicious to his sudden agreement.
She might even carry his phone and investigate if it lead to that just for her to be convinced.
"Chen" Hazbullah said the name as he typed it on the phone and saved it.
"I'll just have to keep my phone out of my mother's eyes" he finally decided plugging the phone to charge before laying back fully on the bed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
HAZBULLAH's POV:
The loud sound of the alarm reverberated around the room waking me up from my deep slumber.
I looked ahead of me to the electronic wall clock above the door to check the time.
My vision was hazy so I squinted my eyes to have a clearer view of it.'6:15'am I sighed standing up and walking into the bathroom.
The light emitting from the bathroom was too bright bleaching my eyes upon my entrance.
I exited the bathroom with a towel after I had taken my bath just to be met with the sight if Sani who stood like a body guard near the room's door.
I looked at the door wondering how Sani was able to enter inside without my Palm print."It was deactivated Sir" Sani answered me upon noticing how my gaze was fixed to the door.
"How?" I asked sitting down in the bed."I am yet to figure that out sir" he said.
"What's my schedule for the day?" I asked him to which he reached out to his pocket bringing out his phone.
"You've a meeting by 9:00am to sign the papers for the match next tomorrow in Lagos" Sani said to which I nodded.
The National Boxing Competition happening soon is very important to me.
That was what my father had groomed me for.
He never cared about International competitions but gave a really huge importance to the National ones.
Mr. Hakima's dream was to be a National boxing champion and that dream was shattered by his opponent back then, Shazali.
That had his ego trashed and since from that day he had promise to make sure his blood get to be one.
If he could not do it, he would make sure his blood does it.
The National Competition will determine who the real boxing Champion is internally.
"Tomorrow is a whole training day for the match" Sani added.
"When will the meeting end?" I asked my personal assistant.
"1:30pm" he answered."Add this to my schedule 'Dinner at the Hakims' mansion by 6:00pm". I sailed to him to which he nodded before exiting the room giving me privacy to dress up.
I walked to my walk-in-wardrobe and bought out a navy blue blazer with a matching trousers and inner top before putting them on.
I stood infront of the mirror spraying different perfumes.
My hair was still damp and a little bit ruffled so I decided to had it re-plaited.
I reached out to my phone calling Sani who picked up almost immediately.
"Sani tell the maids that they can come and arrange my room now also inform the Salon that I'll be coming now" I said to him hanging up before putting the phone in my pocket.
I exited the room and headed straight to the elevator tapping on the 3rd floor where the Salon is located.
I walked hastily towards the hallway considering the fact that I still had breakfast to consume and also have to be at the office.
I would not want to be late, not that anyone will complain but it is out of my habit.
I entered the door to the Salon which I use alot since I am fond of changing hairstyles.
I say down on one of the comfortable chair facing the large mirror.
A hairdresser dressed in a uniform of a long blue pinafore walked towards me to attend to me.
She bowed slightly before reaching out for the dryer to begin.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I looked at my reflection on the mirror feeling content with the results.
The black hair was now platted in a simple yet beautiful all back with a star designs at the center.
"I hope you liked it sir?" The hairdresser asked when she noticed how I've been inspecting my hair.
I nodded my head before exiting the Salon.
I arrived at the last floor using the elevator meeting Sani who was waiting for me by the elevator.
He trailed behind me as usual as I walked to the dining table."After you sir" he said as I sat down before he also joins.
The maids served Sani and I as we ate quietly.
It was my father's idea to have alot of maids around the house just like him.
Sometimes he forgets I pay the maids and not him.
We departed straight to the office after breakfast.
Sani was busy checking the time on his watch every single minute like an impatient person."Can you drive faster" He said to the driver who increased the speed of the car.
The black Limo pulled over at the parking arena of the boxing enterprise.
Sani and I walked inside towards the elevator.
The Sky scraper building was very busy as usual.
I ignored all the greetings coming my as I was in a rush.
We entered the elevator and arrived at the 10th floor before proceeding towards the large meeting hall which was already filled up with people.
They all stood up as I entered inside and took my seat before they sat back down.
"Good day, I am Mathew, Simon's personal assistant" Mathew introduced himself to which I nodded.
"He sent me here to represent him bec..." Mathew started but I cut him off saying "Let's proceed to the next agenda".He masked up his embarrassed expression before continuing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The meeting took more time than planned due to the mistake made in the date of the file which has to be taken back to the office to be corrected.
Mathew took that as a chance to introduce his boss to me to which I replied saying "no need, I'm only meant to disfigure his face and not make alliances".
It was pretty obvious how that sentence annoyed him because I saw a muscle twitched by his jaw region.
"Sir, it's already past 4:00" Sani said to me as we exited the enterprise."I'll not come to office tomorrow Sani so make sure that everything stays intact here. Also you can have the day off tomorrow" I said to him entering inside the car.
The drive back home was quiet with Sani just checking the time on his watch regularly.
I stared outside to keep myself busy watching the trees as we passed by.
The view just screams nature.
I checked the time on my watch feeling relieved that I still have time to prepare for the dinner.
I exited the car immediately and walked to the elevator to the 7th floor tapping my feet impatiently as I waited for the elevator to reach.
I walked straight to my room and into the bathroom to shower before dressing up.
Sani was already in my room when I exited.
There was a black top and a matching black check top on the bed with a black trousers.
I looked at Sani whose gaze was fixed on the large shoe rack fixed to my closet.
He bought out a black Jordan and kept it neat the carpet.
Sani has always been like a very close companion to me.
Although he is full of mystery which I would love to unravel I could not force him to tell me all about himself if he was not ready.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
