Games Of Destiny

chapter seventeen

" what?" I asked in disbelief, I never thought that it was this expensive.

" it there a problem dear?" The shopkeeper asked, looking worried.

" um no sir, actually I didn't- just forget it, thank you" I said, and collected back the necklace.

" OK better keep it safe, and I'm sure it has your name on it right?" He asked and I nodded.

" well it seems to me that you mean a lot to that person, so always cherish it and when you look at it remember the person who gifted it to you OK?" He finished, and I nodded and we both said our goodbye. ' if only I knew who gave it to me' I thought, I was outside the shop and I saw a bench under a tree not far from where I was standing, still not having a clue of where Diego went , I made my way towards the tree and sat on the bench under it.
I don't understand all of this anymore, if this necklace belongs to me then it meant that my parents must have been rich, so where was all that money or maybe some properties?, if my parents were rich then how come aunt and her family are not? didn't my parents try to help them out? uuurgh! all these unanswered questions had started to give me a headache.

And I can't ask aunt about it, then she would know that I lied to her, then she would think that I haven't really moved on, no I can't ask her I don't want her to feel upset about anything because of me, I have to think of something else but what? I was brought out of my thoughts by someone clearing his throat, that was when I noticed someone was sitting beside me.

"Earth to you Ariana" the person said, that voice how can I forget it? That voice that was like music to my ears, I turned to the person only to meet with those beautiful brown eyes, it was indeed him ' Mr nobody'

" really? that was the name you could find?" He asked me with raised eyebrows, some habits just can't be stopped.

"well you didn't tell me your name" I mentally slap myself, I can't believe I want to start a conversation with him after Clara clearly warned me to stay away from him, but how can you avoid such a good looking man?

" oh well you'll find out soon" he said smiling at me, he looks more handsome when he smiles.

" so what are you doing here in Nania? " he asked, well Mr nobody I also have a question for you, since it's what you are good at.

" I think I should be the one asking you that Mr nobody "

" you really amaze me Ariana, I can't believe you are still calling me that" he said, looking amazed at me, he looked cute with that face on, I bit my lower lip and looked away.

" well if you must know I live here " he said, then I took a notice of his outfit, he was wearing a well designed black suit, with White shirt, he looked professional and don't forget charming.

" I think I figured that out the first time we met" I said

" how?"

" let's just say your appearance said it all, and besides people like you don't live in swellville " I said, he stared at me for a while as if he was thinking about something.

" And you think that people like you do?" He asked raising an eyebrow, I looked at him shocked, so he also believes that I don't belong in swellville? am I that different? OK I think I should start looking for Diego now.

" and who's that?" He asked getting up, he took me by surprise he looked really angry now his eyes were dark like he could murder someone right now, what's his problem?

" what's wrong?" I asked also getting up, facing him.

" who is Diego? " he asked gritting his teeth.

" what?" I asked more confused, how did he know about oooh! I must have said it out loud, God help me right now.
