The forgotten heir

Chapter 9

He was riding his delivery bike when suddenly a bus having a familiar logo crosses his path. His eyes followed this bus until it was out of sight.

Just immediately this bus left his sight, he felt his head spinning, his eyes were becoming dizzy and he had to stop the bike from moving or else might fall from it.

He quickly climbed down from the motorbike and then whimpered while closing his ears. Louis was suddenly having flashback, and it caused his head to throb.

"Argh!" He groaned and fell to his knees. His eyes began to see footsteps approaching him and a voice asked him;

"Where is it"

Louis could see himself covered in blood and crawl on the ground, wishing to survive. However, the memory was unclear and faded immediately.

His face turned red as he had screamed out due to the spinning headache. He often come across this headache which gives him a hard time.

Whenever he was in such pains, Abigail had told him to close his eyes, breath slowly and then try to his mind off the vision he was having.

But how could he when flashes of memories were lurking in his brains yet he couldn't figure out what they meant.

He was anxious over the person who asked him a question in his memory. Louis wondered why it was flashes of memories he was getting rather than a lucid one just so he could trace where he comes from easily

"Where is it?" He asked himself repeating the words of the strange man in his vision and wondering what the person meant by that. It got him puzzled that he had to find the mystery attached to his life, yet couldn't figure out who he truly was.

Louis was running out of breath, and needed his inhaler. He stretched his hand into his pocket to search for the inhaler, but it was gone. His leg went towards where he halted the delivery bike, and search the courier along with other parts of the bike. Sadly for him, he couldn't find the inhaler.

That was one habit Louis had, he often forget important items and now his guess was that he left it in that arrogant's girl house.

"Damn it, am I going to die for real?" He asked himself as heat began coarse all over his body. Louis could get a hold of himself as everything was going blind before his eyes.

Anytime he was panicking, that's when his asthma occurs and now there was no inhaler to quell it down. His throat was choking and he was gurgling to breath.

"He..l..p" he panic rubbing his throat and panting for air rapidly. The place he was had no passerbys which meant he had no hope of being revive.

He fell limply to the hard ground as hot tears had clouded his eyes. Luck shined on him when someone suddenly appeared with an inhaler.

His blurry vision could capture who was his saving grace but his presumption was that it could be Abigail.

"Hello!" A serene voice beckoned as he could see a feminine finger waving at his face to give a respond.

His head was on her thigh as he would passed out for lack of oxygen but she had to hold him to sit and the ground as also did the same and placed his head on her thigh before administering the inhaler to him.

His eyes were opened but was subconscious over what was going on and it took him a minute to jerk back to the world.

His breathing rate had become normal and he was now caution of the environment. This person aided him up, handed him the inhaler and glanced at him. 

Louis shove his gaze at her, he remembers that it was the arrogant girl.How did she find? This was freaking him out as he could sense that this girl was tailing on him.

It was like though she knew what his thoughts was about and quickly refutes his assertion.

"I am Jessica, remember me, the girl who you delivered..."

"Why are you tailing on me?"

"I wasn't, I was heading towards your company with the money and your inhaler which you forgot at my place and so...well I found you here" she defended trying to clear up his assertion.

He didn't say a word again and intended to get on his delivery bike but then she obstructed his view and gave a wry smile.

"I'm sorry for earlier, I misunderstood you"

There was s no response from him as he gestured on her to leave his path way. Howbeit, she brought out a buisness card and handed over to him. Louis didn't take it from her and looked like someone who was in a hurry.

Couldn't she see his lack of interest in her offer? It was obvious except if she was doing it purposely just for him to accept her request.

Besides, the company she works in didn't just make her an ambassador for no reason, it was because of her persuasive nature and she never gives up on someone especially when she discovers their talents.

She was attempting to introduce him to a job that would fit his intelligence even though he was acting all harsh towards her.

He still holds an appreciation to this girl who goes by the name Jessica and had saved him on time or else would have met his early grave.

This girl didn't create a passage way for him as she needed to convince him to work with her agency.

"You've got great potentials in you and I would like you to work for this company, I am an ambassador there..."

"I don't want to" he cuts short but she pleaded calmly with him to accept her request. Since they met, he had been acting ruthlessly towards her, but that was just how Louis was. Possibly that part of him didn't leave him behind.

It was difficult to convince him in doing something, and takes grace before he changes his mind. Abigail could testify about that.

"Don't let this opportunity pass you by, let the world know of your potentials, you're amazing" she beckoned, still surprised how this low class boy could solve a buisness strategy that even some elites, could come up with an idea for.

These were the kind of people her company was looking for, and she felt her boss would be impressed that she brought back an intelligent man.

He smirked at her, and ignite his engine while this girl tugged the card into his breast pocket.

"You might need it" she whispered and he rode away from her.

His attitude was domineering and it frighten this girl but she had to mutter courage in speaking to him. This guy might just be the key she needed in gaining success at the company where she works.
