Chapter 201 Audrey Offered To Help Her
"I don't know Drey. We haven't had any arguments. He decided to keep his distance from me for no reason," Joanna relayed her plights.
Her blood boiled in rage when she recalled the manner Amos abandoned her in his room after Amelia's phone call that day.
"Go easy on your poor hands ok? You are gonna ruin them at this rate," Audrey, whose gaze was on Joanna's bleeding right hand, cautioned.
Lifting her right hand Joanna was surprised to see that she had dug her nails into her delicate flesh until it bled.
"Anna, I will advise that you try to recall all that happened before the day he started acting weird because I am sure he wouldn't be treating you this way. Except you are accepting that he is crazy," Audrey said meekly.
Seeing her friend this way also affects her mood so the best way to make everyone happy again is to find the root of all that happened and that is exactly what she is doing.
"I didn't do anything…,"
"Anna, take a deep breath ok," Audrey placed her hand on the agitated lady's right shoulder.
"Don't be rash with your reply, take your time to recollect all that happened that night you said he left you in bed in the middle of…you know what I mean," Audrey joked just to lighten the atmosphere a little.
"I have this guy feeling that everything started going awry because of what you might have said or done so take your time ok," Audrey said softly. The calmness of her voice served as an effective soothing medicine to Joanna's anger.
Joanna relayed all that happened starting from how he barged into her home to ask her out on a date.
She was so immersed in her narration and didn't see herself smiling at every interval.
"He looks so reserved. I never knew he had that badass side attached to him. Also, I never knew that nerds like having fun…,"
"Don't call him like that," Joanna was quick to correct Audrey.
"Yes Madam," Audrey replied sarcastically. Joanna chuckled seeing the funny face Audrey made while saying the word.
"So what happened after he almost bought the entire boutique for you huh?" The inquisitive Audrey asked.
Even though she wasn't with them on the mentioned day, she was having fun merely hearing Joanna relay the events that took place.
Joanna went ahead to relay their experience in the jewellery shop. Audrey couldn't resist cracking up when she heard the method Joanna adopted just to stop her man from purchasing the entire jewellery in the jewel shop for her.
"Hahaha… you will never change. I can't believe you adopted the same method you always used on me," Audrey laughed.
"You…," Audrey was about to talk when the loud noise coming from the northern part of the campus interrupted her.
"The mysterious guy is here and I can't believe the girls are at it again," Audrey muttered. A frown appeared on her face as she kept on looking at where the students' cheers were coming from.
"They can go crazy for him as much as they want, I don't care. Besides, I have a lot on my plates to care about," Joanna replied as she looked away from where the students' shouts came from.
Audrey brought back her gaze to her friend by her side. "I know the ladies are going overboard by losing their soul to him but I must admit that he is devilishly handsome. When I came across his picture I couldn't believe that someone could be so handsome….,"
"Is he better looking than Kay?" Joanna blurted out without thinking. She covered her mouth when she realised what she said.
She tilted her head to peep at Audrey's face expecting to see Audrey flare up at the mention of his name.
Joanna was stunned to see that Audrey's mood didn't change a bit even after calling Kayden's name, the name Audrey didn't want to hear.
"Hmmm…," Audrey trailed with her index finger on her lips.
"Do you even need to think that much," Joanna asked. It was so obvious what answer she wanted from Audrey.
"I can't seem to pick. That's to tell you how handsome he is," Audrey replied.
"You should see his abs, Anna. They are killers…,"
"Why are you diverting from what we were talking about huh?" Joanna questioned while avoiding looking at Audrey.
Noticing Joanna's reddened cheeks, the corner of Audrey's lips lifts to reveal a sly smile.
"Why is your face red? Do you feel hot?" Audrey asked teasingly. She raised her hand to touch Joanna's cheek but she was fast to beat Audrey's hand away.
She cupped her reddened cheeks.
Audrey chuckled seeing how her best friend was acting like a child who was caught stealing.
"Let's get back to real business. We will talk about his killer body next time," Audrey said, giving Joanna the floor to continue with her narration.
Joanna's face lit up once again when she reached the part where she entered the landlady's former apartment and met the surprise he had prepared for her.
"He proposed to you?" Audrey shouted trying to jump up. For a minute she forgot that they were sitting on the edge of the rooftop.
Audrey tried to keep her astonishment under control after almost falling off the rooftop.
"Also why didn't you tell me that I and your boyfriend are now neighbours…,"
"I didn't get the chance to. As you know things have been hectic and I haven't been in my right mind lately. I am sorry I forgot to tell you that," Joanna apologised.
"We will talk about that later but for now tell me what your response was," Audrey was more eager to hear the continuation of the story compared to the fact that Joanna kept a secret from her.
Joanna fiddled with her fingers when the time for her to satisfy Audrey's curiosity reached.
"Stop keeping me in suspense and say it already," Audrey ordered with a frown. "You must have said yes right and that is how things graduated to you both being on the bed naked right?" Audrey lets her imagination run wild as she winked at her best friend.
The way she behaved was as if she had multiple personalities.
"I rejected his proposal," Joanna replied with her head lowered.
"What?" Audrey shouted. She jumped and stood on the space which had only enough space for her two legs to stand on.
"Tell me you are joking right?"
