Love Hate Relationship

chapter seven

Sasha watched as the attendants fill her trunk with bags of different sizes, each packed to the full with different types of clothes and shoes, she still can't believe how her simple shopping turned luxurious and it's not helping with the fact of this magic card that Michael gave her which pays for everything in the blink of an eye. She had been scared that the attendant might return again that there is no more fund in the card but that never happened, whenever it was slotted on the machine, it pays, it just works like magic.

"It's all packed now ma'am, please come visit us again" the attendant all said shyly, including the one that had abandoned her for Kira. Bella has also tried sucking up to her, she just don't understand why they were all acting like that, treating her like a princess or maybe a Queen. She smiled at them and got into the car before turning on the ignition. She let out a deep breath before driving out for her home.

Sasha pulled over in front of her lonely mansion or so she called it. She got out and opened her trunk, carrying out all the bags that have been stuffed there. She managed to carry all of them at once and walked into the house, she closed the door behind her and turned only to froze when she saw the man sitting on the sofa, typing away on his laptop. He looked up at her and his gaze strayed to the big bags she was struggling to carry, looking at her face again, his eyes were full of mockery as the corner of his lips arched upward in a faint smile.

"Next time you think of damaging my reputation, do be sure to think again please" he saved the file he was working on and shutdown the laptop before standing up to face her "need a hand?"

Sasha wanted to say yes but when she noticed the mockery in his eyes, she swallowed the word and slowly shook her head, just where is the loving man that came to her rescue today? Please bring him back to me, she thought "I can manage."

Michael chuckled faintly "can I have my credit card back please? You know you almost deafened me with all the debit alerts that kept bouncing in my phone."

Sasha bit her lower lip, just why didn't she think of that? Well it's not her fault, it's all Bella's fault, she will think she is done shopping and will pay only for Bella to return again with new stocks, asking her to try them on, the thing happened for like five times and if not because she insisted she is not shopping anymore, it would have still been going on by now. She let go of her thought and dropped the bags, freeing her hands at last, she reached to her back pocket and pulled out the card before walking closer to him to hand it over.

Michael watched the way she was acting like a bullied girl and almost wanted to let her of the hook, but, no, where is the fun there? "You know if you really wanted to prove yourself to me, you shouldn't have used my card because there is no difference here, literally, I bought the clothes and shoes for you" he raised his eyebrows with a faint smile hanging on his lips.

Sasha sighed, she knew this was coming "I planned on paying for them myself but you have to show up and offered your credit card yourself, I didn't ask for it. I had everything under control."

"Really? So if I hadn't showed up, you would have escaped from the clutches of Kira? I don't think so. You see Kira is not the type who easily let go of her prey and if I hadn't showed up, you would have become a laughing stock by midnight when the news will be released by a well known reporter, not that I care but just that you will be dragging me down with you and I don't want that."

"So what are you saying?" Sasha asked.

"What I'm saying is that, what ever that happened today should not mean anything to you, I was saving my face and again, we are going to do some calculation, we will add up all the debit alerts and know the final sum, you are going to pay me back baby."
