Chapter 2 Met someone

Myra woke up the next morning feeling uneventful. She stretched herself and got out of bed ready to face the next morning. She quickly got prepared with the help of her maids who brought out what she wanted to wear.

After she was satisfied with the clothes she had on, she made her way downstairs to eat breakfast and that was when she saw that her food had already been served in the huge dining but there was no one present.

Sitting down she snapped her fingers and a maid came hurrying to her side.

"Where is my mother?" Myra asked as the maid bowed and replied,

"She went out quite early today. She mentioned that she won't be back on time, but would try to make it for late lunch." Myra nodded her head hearing this and shooed her away before she focused on eating.

She wanted to talk to her about the bodyguard issue that she won't need one but she shrugged it off. No need to hasten her decision, when she comes back, she will let her know. With this in mind, she sat down and ate breakfast.

After eating she was feeling a bit bored and was scrolling through her phone when her phone started ringing.

She saw that it was her best friend Anna who was calling her so she quickly picked it up with a smile.

"Hey bestie, how was your night?" Anna's cheery voice breezed through the receiver making Myra happy as she subconsciously smiled and said,

"Uneventful. Yours?"

"Mine was quite interesting...I met someone and I would love to talk about him with you, are you busy? Can we meet up?" She asked as Myra thought about it. She was indeed bored and there was no need to wait around in the huge mansion alone. Besides she can kill tome so she replied,

"Sure, where do you want us to meet? Or should I come to your house?"Myra added with a smirk as Anna on the other hand quickly shook her head and said,

" No, let's meet at the usual cafe. I am currently not at home."

"Oh okay, dear. I will see you in an hour." Myra smiled and said,

"Alright. I will be waiting." Anna ended the call as Myra dropped the phone on the table and stood up to prepare again. The cloth she had on wasn't appropriate for an outing. She was happy at the very least that she was going to go out and spend some time with her best friend.

She was going to bring this bodyguard issue up and hear her opinions. It wasn't bad to get a second opinion.

When she came downstairs again fully dressed with a matching purse she took her phone and dropped it in her bag before making her way to the courtyard.

And as usual, the guards all stood up waiting to escort her as Myra shook her head,

"But mistress, we have to protect you at all times." The head guard tried to say as Myra shook her head and said,

"I am just going for a coffee drink with a friend. There is no need for you lot to escort me. I will be fine. Okay? You coming with me will just attract attention towards me. I am sure that I can pull this off alone."

"But the big madam said....."

"Leave my mother out of this. I am going alone and that's final." She said in a harsh tone this time around as the men nodded their heads and kept quiet.

Myra got into her car and drove out of the mansion and made her way to the cafe.

FIFTEEN MINUTES LATER

Myra saw her best friend waiting for her at their usual spot by the window and she smiles and walked towards her. Anna saw her coming and stood up hugging and pecking her as they both sat down and Anna gave her the coffee that she had already ordered for her.

"Thanks, dear." She said as she sipped from it. Anna then went ahead to tell her about the new guy while Myra was listening with prompt attention asking her questions when needed.

After their third cup of refill, Myra frowned as she glanced outside and saw that the same man who has been staring at her for the past hour was still there trying to make himself hidden but Myra knew the activities of a stalker when she saw one. She told Anna about what was happening and told her not to freak out and give the man away so that they know she is being stalked.

"What are you going to do? Where are your bodyguards? Is he outside?" Anna said as Myra brought out her phone and shook her head.

" No, but I am about to get one now. My mum wanted to get me one last night but I refused. I guess I will take one then." She said as she dialed her mother's number and placed the phone on her ears waiting for her to pick up.

"Hello Myra, how are you doing? "

"I am fine, mother. I will just cut to the chase. About the bodyguard, I will accept one, but I have terms and conditions for this." She said as her mum quickly replied,

"Sure, tell me what the conditions are. I will fulfill it and every one of it." She said as Myra answered,

"I will be the one to be paying for his services. As you know I have a private business and I am very independent so I will pay for it."

"Okay dear, if that is what you want, then there is no problem. You are getting a bodyguard and that is all I need. Thank you for thinking this through. I know that you aren't happy about it but thank you. "

"It's okay mother. Between us, there is no need for thanks and sorry. I am happy to get one to keep you happy. I will be hanging up now. I am with Anna." She added as her mother nodded her head although she could not see her and ended the call.
