Chapter 6

The weekend went by so fast and soon after,a new and hectic week was upon her.she got to work without hitches on the way.so far,her day was running smoothly.she got to the class she would be teaching that morning and she saw a package on her table.she looked around the classroom wondering how the package got to her there..she looked at the children playing the piano and those playing the guitar,non of them seemed to be aware of the strange package.she walked to her table to open the package.she unwrapped it and out came a box of chocolate,a single red rose and a small folded note..she looked at it in puzzelment before opening the note.it read'This is to say am sorry..'. A small smile appeared on her face as she put the gifts away.the day went on with her teaching her classes.she skipped lunch with her friends because she was trying to avoid lindys lecture's.ever since the meeting with Mr arrogant in the resturant,she has been on her neck saying that it was faith and destiny.she was already planning their wedding..When it was time to go home,she said her goodbyes to max and the other kids.on her way out a stunning woman wearing a well tailored suit approached her.

"Good day..i am looking for miss bridget Summers.i heard she works here.could you please direct me to her office?

"Good day..urmm..why are you looking for her".bridget asked a bit shaky

"i want her to train my daughter.i hear she is a good voice coach".

"i am she..Bridget summers.if i may ask,who told you that i am a voice coach".

"you were recommended to me by miss Linda Cook.she is a family friend.but back to the matter on ground,could you train my 16 year old daughter.she has a talent show coming up soon and she is scarred she might not do well.please i need your help"

"Madam,i dont know why miss linda,didnt tell you that i only train kids".Bridget said with a hint of anger present in her voice at her friend for not mentioning it to her.

"Bridget i really need your help.i'll pay you handsomely i promise".the woman said with desperation in her voice.

"its not about the money.i only teach kids".bridget was getting agitated with the idea of teaching a teenager because it was way too out of her comfort zone.

"this is my business card incase you change your mind".the woman said as she handed the card over to bridget.the woman got into her car and drove away.bridget looked at the card again before heading home.she got home a little late because of the horrible traffic.she placed her stuff away and went to her fridge to get a drink.she was starring at the note when her phone rang.the number wasn't registered on her phone but she answered it anyway.

"Bridget summers speaking".she said non challently

"evening bridget..did you receive my package".she didnt need to ask who he was because she already knew seeing from the effect his voice left on her.she felt butterflies in her tummy and her heart did a summersault...make that a double summersault.

"how did you get my number...scratch that..why did you call".she said breathless

"bridget that doesn't answer my question."

"yes i received your package and if you think a box of chocolate and a rose is going to help redeem yourself in my eyes,then sir you are terribly mistaking".

"and here i thought we were getting off to a good start.ok bridget,how can i make it up to you?"he did not know why he wanted to please her but all he knew was that he wasn't comfortable with her being upset with him any longer.

"is this the reason you called?"

he came up with a cover up to keep the conversation going.in some strange way,he found her voice soothing."urhmmm...not really...max and i are going out tomorrow for some ice cream.max asked if u could join us".

"Oh..i dont know if.."he immediately cut her short

"come on luv,for me?"..that made bridgets heart beat faster

"since you put it that way...no".

"ok ok ..for max.he'ld be disappointed if you dont come with us"

"alright..fyn"she said feeling happy and somehow nervous.it wasn't a date but she still felt self conscious..her head was telling her it wasn't a good idea but her heart was saying something entirely different.

"bridget are you still with me"

"what..yea...yea.you were saying"she said after regaining her composture

"i said i'ld pick you up after max's class.is that ok?"he asked hoping she wouldn't turn him down.

"ok.thats fyn..see you tomorrow then".she hung up and started taking steady breaths to calm herself.in her head she kept saying 'its not a date..its just for max.this has nothing to do with him'.when she felt satisfied with her peep talk,she decided to get ready for bed...she was brushing her teeth when her phone rang. she ran to her bedroom to get her phone.

"bridget i just got off the phone with Mrs Smith.she told me you turned her down.why would you do that after i worked so hard to convince her your the best"linda's voice said on the other line

"first of all why didnt you tell me about this arrangement you made for me?"

"i wanted to but i didnt get the chance.is that why you blew this up?"linda asked impatiently

"of course not..i only train children..little kids not teenagers and their tantrums"bridget said trying to justify her action

"come on..this is an opportunity.if this goes well you'll be getting offers from different people.i know you can do this.your a natural..atleast promise me you'll think about it"

"ok i promise."she said finally because she didnt want her friends efforts to be in vain.the least she could do was to think about it

"Good girl."linda said with a sigh.

"listen,max and harris invited me to join them for ice cream tomorrow".bridget said sounding a bit out if it

"wow thats great..girl this is definitely destiny i tell you.you guyz are meant to be together" she screamed into the phone

"calm down.you dont even know this guy for you to pass such verdict and besides im only going because max would be sad i didn't"

"ya right..i know you like him.you couldn't stop looking at him in the resturant..bridget there is nothing wrong with getting serious with him.live a little.when last did you even go out on a date?"linda said trying to reassure her

"its not a date ok..when i find the right guy,i'll get serious with him and how do you know if he thinks about me in that way.im sure he has more attrative women to drool over."bridget wasn't this insecure when it came to men until recently.

"hmmm..my friend,ok...i'll leave you to rest.get some sleep ok".linda said because the topic was starting to make bridget sad.

"alright.see you tomorrow"..they hung up and bridget finished cleaning up before going to sleep hoping that she wasn't risking anything because she didn't like what her heart was telling her. she pushed her thoughts aside and went to sleep.
