Chapter 25: Engaged to a young girl
Mitchell couldn't focus on work and kept making mistake's when it was close to lunch time her phone started ringing she thought it was Austin but was disappointed when she saw unknown in the caller ID she pick the call and put the phone on her ear.
Hello are my speaking with Mitchell Wilson? yes!..... good am at a coffee shop close to your office come down and meet me....who are you?
If you want to know who I am come to the coffee shop. I can't am at work right now if you have anything to say say it and if you don't I will hang up.... don't keep me waiting Austin little girlfriend wait you know Austin?
I said don't keep me waiting! with that the call disconnected.
Mitchell stare blankly into the air for some few minutes before standing up Seb is team leader back? no net yet what is wrong? nothing I have to meet someone downstairs, help me take a leave if she comes back before I do okay.
Mitchell walk into the coffee shop and look around and she saw a woman who look like Austin Mom and she unconsciously walk towards her, when she was close enough she ask in a slow voice are you Austin Mom?
Yes wow I didn't expect you know me I do Austin talk about you all the time but....
Wait! Austin talks about me that is a big suprise but that is not what am here today to talk about you look so innocent and young and on top of that you are really beautiful I can't blame Austin if he likes you but I have to say you two are not ment for each other you are from a very poor family background and you have done so many part time jobs and I can understand if you want to find yourself a rich guy who can pay all your bills am not here to judge you I just want you to let Austin go he is already taken they are so many rich guys out there who are not taken yet go find yourself one...
What do you mean by Austin is already taken? He has been engaged to a young girl for a very long time now and you in the picture is not very fair to the young girl, please let Austin go if you want money I can give you some.... Mitchell wasn't paying attention to her anymore the only thing she heard was "engaged".... Are you even listening... Yes....in case you didn't hear I said even if it is not for his fiance but for his little daughter who needs her Mom love Austin can't be with you he already has a family who needs him so end whatever you two have don't be a home wrecker I hope you understand...
Mitchell walk way from the coffee shop sad and heartbroken with everything Austin Mom just say to her still fresh in her brain she wasn't crying or angry she was just sad she continue walking with out any destination in mind.
She walk from her company down to the bus stop close to her apartment Mitchell has been walking for so long but didn't feel tired at all but when she arrived at the bus stop she suddenly felt tired and sat down on the bench and her phone started ringing she brought out the phone from her bag and pick the call and her brother panic voice came from the other end.
Hel.. hello sis they is a problem.... what is wrong? Last.... night the restaurant caught fire and two other shops were affected the shop owners are asking us to pay for the damage the fire cause or they will seize the house for repayment.... what! they can't do that is unfair.
Sis don't worry too much about it we are taking it to court we can't lose the house after losing the restaurant I have to hang up now I just thought of letting you know, Mom and Dad didn't want you to know so you wouldn't worry and focus on work but I know you will eventually find out and you will be really angry so I decided to tell you, the call disconnected and this time Mitchell couldn't hold back anymore and started crying like a baby.
She cried and cried until her throat start hurting and it gradually turn into slow sob.
Meanwhile Austin was waiting for Mitchell at the front of her company building he saw her coworkers who she normally comes out with coming out but she wasn't with them so he immediately walk towards them to ask about Mitchell.
Seb: ah! Tomorrow am going to submit the transfer form and in two days time if the transfer is approved we will go to the State am going to miss this place and also the best team mate's in the whole world....
Hello Austin interrupt them hi mmm... Mitchell boyfriend right? Yes is Mitchell working overtime?
No oo Mitchell left work before lunch break saying she need to meet someone and she didn't come back, is everything okay with her? she wasn't herself today and kept zooming out.. she is fine she is just stress lately no need to worry okay byebye! bye.
[She met someone? who did she meet up with why didn't she come back to work?] Austin brought out his phone from his trouser pocket and dial Mitchell number.....
The number you are trying to call is not answering please try again later thank you.....
Austin continue calling her but she didn't pick up he even sent her lot of messages she wasn't responding to any of it so he got really worried and dial Ella number. The call was answered after the first ring, hey what's up came her voice from the other end is Mitch home?
No she is at work..... she is not at work her team mate's said she left the office before lunch break I will go look around for her if she eventually come home let me know with that Austin disconnected the call and immediately hop on his motorcycle and zoom off in full speed.
He went to every single place he felt Mitchell might be but couldn't find her at last he went to the bus stop close to Mitchell apartment but couldn't find her unknown to him Mitchell just left the please few minute ago he check his phone to see if Ella has call him but they was no miss call so he kept searching.
