I laugh at him "Promise." I hug his pinky with mine.

"Do you know where I live." He asked me out of blue.

I just shake my head in negative.

"Silly me." He slap his forehead.

He started rummaging through his bag. He was trying to find something.

"ahhhh.....here take this." He gave me a card.

I took it from him reading the address. It was located in south west upper side. I just nod at myself look like his daddy isn't an ordinary person.

"Didn't he told you his daddy work at that new construction company which is opening opposite of yours". My conscience remind me.

"Okay little Duck I will be see you there"

As soon as I woke up the next day, I visit Maa because today she Is going to discharge from the hospital.

I opened the door to see, she was already dress up to go. I know she was suffocating here, she don't like hospital.

And here I kept her here for One week. I know she is pissed at me for that.

"Hey Maa....Are you ready to go." I asked her with a cheeky smile.

She snapped her head  glaring at me.

"Now you got the time to come."

"Maa...you....." I was saying.

But she cut me off "Just take me out of here now." She told me while standing up.

"Okay okay no need rush old lady." I hold her hand.

She gasped. "Did you just call me Old Lady."

"Well are you asking me to lie." I asked her dramatically.

"I am looking much younger than you." She made a proudly face which made me giggle at her cuteness.

"Well that I can agree with. You are the most prettiest girl I have ever seen." I winked at her.

She look at me lovingly and whispered softly "I pray you always smile like this."

I just look at her and smile.

As we enter my house, she continuously argue with me why I am taking her with me, why can't she go to her house, she Is old enough to live alone she need her privacy. Blahh...blahhh...blabbb

I didn't listen any of her words because I know I won't be in peace If I let her live alone. I slowly hold her hand and make her sit on my couch."Maa..."  I whisper softly while l

Staring straight into her eyes. "You know you mean the world to me and I have no one other than you."  Tears welled up in my eyes.

I tried to gulped down my saliva "I would die If anything happen to you."

Just thinking about her leaving me I can feel shiver through my whole body.

"Okay." She smiled while cupping my face. "I ain't going anywhere this early."

I laugh her at silly ascents...I know she was trying to cheer me up. I got up and hold her hand.

"Come I'll take you to your room."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today is the day I will Meet The Famous Mr.Grey, just thinking about him I feel disgust. That dirty pig dare to play with me.

I don't know why, today I feel like dressing up. So I try to choose the one of the best suit I have. The nude blush colour pant with my off white shirt was giving me the professional and fashionable look. I tied my hair in high ponytail. With just a little dab of mascara and maroon deep lipstick I was ready to go. I shrugged my jacket wearing my ray bans and walked out from my house.

As I arrived In the court my lawyer came running towards me. "Miss Daniel  the other party has arrived and I think before going to present the case Infront of judge we should talk out with them, If they want to settle."

I just nod my head and started walking toward the room where he was leading me. He knocked at the door and enter the room I was trailing behind him. I can see their was One women I think she was the lawyer and there at the far end stood a man watching through the window. His back was towards me. It feel like he can sense my stare so he slowly started turning around. As soon as I see who he was my mouth fall open, my eyes were wide I started connecting the dots....He was their when I visit the Johnson. His back was also look the same when he came yesterday. Then what the f**k he was doing at the opposite building. That mean the new company was non another than Grey Construction House. Oh God How stupid I was....He f*****g knew who was I, that why he played me In that f*****g restaurant.

"YOU." I gritted my teeth.

He only smirked at me."Miss Daniel."

"Mr.Grey." I glared at him.

His lawyer broke us from our staring contest. "ahem....Mr Grey should we start."

He just nodded at her.

I was fuming from inside all this time I was going crazy, thinking who dare to steal my land and here he was.

"As we know Mr.Johnson has signed the check amount with Miss.Daniel for the land. But he also sign the land paper In Mr.Grey name. So he tricked both of you. So we came together as solution that you two have to compromise."

"There's two option - the lawyer continued

1. If Mr.Grey want the land he will gave the exact amount to Miss.Daniel."

                        Or My lawyer interrupted

"If Miss. Daniel want the land she have to talk It out with Mr.Grey.

"And If both party didn't choose any of these option then the second option Is -

YOU TWO HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER."

"NOOOO." I screamed

"Absolutely Not." The other voice snapped which belong to that nincompoop.

We glared at each other.

Our lawyer once again clear their  throat. Look the thing is....

"Mr.Johnson didn't told you both that he doesn't have the legally right on that land and If we take this up to court, their is 80 percent chance the government will take the property. So this up to both of you to decide. And as we have saw your papers Miss Daniel here want to construct an orphanage and Mr Grey want to opened an school. So we think It would be great If you two sort this out."

I was lost at my thought.What Will I do Now. I always dream to open an Orphanage their. That land has my heart. How can I say No to this and If government under take, I know It will become more impossible for me to fight.  I have to compromise not for me but for her...

I took a deep breathe and stare right  Mr.Grey eyes. "I am In."

He also nodded at our lawyer.
