My Prince Charming

You Have My Attention

CHAPTER 2

"Omg I'm sorry Mr.Ferry.I didn't intend to be impolite .But it hurts." Amy found herself mumbling.'What the hell is wrong with you Amy. you never apologise to men.You hate them'She heard her inner voice saying.

"yeah I get you Amy.But this is my room and you just stormed in and i couldn't help it." Diam said with confusion.

"I think I have dropped my phone somewhere" Amy hunt for her phone but couldn't find it.She looked at Diam's face and for her surprise there was an amusing smile.

"um Amy why don't we try calling your phone.If it's here we can hear the ringing."

Amy hesitated.

"Tell me your number" He ordered.

"077 2314562"

'Stupid!Stupid!Stupid! girl' Inner voice yelled at her.

Suddenly she heard a ringing.

"beep beep beep"

"It comes from the drawer"cried Amy.

Both Diam and Amy bent together unseen each other to reach the phone.

"ouch!!!" Well you guessed it.Their heads knocked again.This time Amy could't stop glaring at Diam.

"not my fault"He chuckled.

"It's fine"Amy growled."I gotta go.My mom must be waiting for me."She hurried to the door.

"yeah right and thanks for the help Mr.Ferry"said Diam not looking at her.

Amy's lips stretched to a smile.

"thanks Mr.Ferry"But he did not raise his eyes from the laptop.

"urggh Mr.Arrogant"muttered Amy slamming the door behind her.

"Hey mommy" Amy waved at Ms.Logan's silver colour Benz .

"Hey sweety.How was the day?"Asked Ms.Logan as soon as she got in.

"Not bad mother love.You're late"

Ms.Logan made a face "I'm quite busy these days sweety."

Amy hated it when her mother called her sweety."I'm not a baby mommy.Stop calling me that." She used to complain every time.

"You're still a baby to me Amy." That was Ms.Logan's usual answer.

Eventually Amy quitted arguing about it for two things. She didn't want to hurt her mother's feelings.Secondly she loved to go back to her childhood when everything was so fine.The time both her mom and dad called her sweety and the time they went everywhere together,did everything together until.... until they found him naked with aunt Sara,her mom's best friend.That was Amy's twelfth birthday present from her dad!

Her eyes were blurred.The only ones who could make her cry were her parents.She never cried for anything.But she did cry for love both parental and romantic.

"Amy you alright?"Ms.Logan broke the silence.She felt Amy was sad but she knew Amy would never admit it.Her tears were invisible and invisible tears are the hardest to wipe away.

"yeah mommy.what on this earth could make your princess upset" asked Amy holding her chin up.Ms.Logan laughed.

After thirty minutes the car pulled in through the gate.

"Ok then sweetheart.You have to make something for lunch."

"ah what I thought you're on leave today."said Amy.

"no Amy.I'm afraid i won't be able to take leave for next two months.bye hon."

Amy stared at her mother's car till it disappeared from her sight.Since her dad left them her mother had worked hard to reach to a stable position.She was a determined woman.Her passion was always for fashion and soon she opened a shop at Milroy Avenue called 'Queen's Fashion'.In a short time it became one of the imposing textiles in the city.

Amy entered the house took two steps at a turn and dashed into her room.She changed into her favourite baby pink tight shorts and a white colour sleeveless tee.Then she went downstairs made a hot coffee and toast for herself.After ten minutes she was done and hurried to the room and flopped on the bed.

"bored"she took her phone and dialled Samantha's number.

"Hello"whispered Samantha.

"hey girl.Where are you?still at the library?"

"yeah out in two mins" She whispered again.

"k then call ya later"Amy hung the phone and stared at the ceiling.

She rolled to the end of the bed to reach " Wild Flowers" one of her favourite books.A sharp pain ran through her right arm.

"ouch" She rubbed it softly.Then her mind went back to the episode she had with Diam.She twisted her mouth in anger.

"That man is made out of iron"she muttered.The bruise looked bad on her arm and she did not want her mother to worry and to answer Samantha at the first place.She took a warm washcloth and rubbed it gently on the bruise.She applied all the creams available at the house.'Now all I have to do is wait till this disappear.'

***************************************************************************************************************************

"thanks Mr.Ferry" Diam heard the brunette's smiling voice.But he was too dignified to look at her.'she doesn't deserve another look ' he thought wickedly.The door slammed behind him.He turned his head slowly to catch a glimpse of the girl.But all he could see was the damned door.He looked at the number on his phone triumphantly.He could still remember how stubborn she acted in the class.She was sleeping and she did not thank him when he found her the phone.It was the first time a girl ignored him.There was a charming smile on his face, his mind was at work,something was awaiting for the girl.

"You've got my attention girl"
