The next day, Carl sat in her office when she heard a knock on the door.
"Come in." She said and Dylan walked in.
"Dylan!" She called standing up.
She had been instructed by Clara not to be angry with Dylan as he could have been busy all day.
"Carl!" Dylan also called walking to her.
"I must say you look beautiful." He said complimenting her beauty but she didn't reply.
She kept a straight face as she looked at Dylan.
"What is wrong?" He asked walking to her.
He touched her face but she shove his hand away then sat.
"My love, why the strange behavior?" He asked.
"I can't help but ask why you didn't come last night." She said making Dylan confused.
He looked at her and smiled before taking his sit.
"You were the one who changed the location." He said making Carl confused.
"Changed the location?" She asked and he nodded.
"I can show you." He said and remembered that she told him to delete it.
"It's deleted as you told me to." He said making Carl smile.
"I did nothing of that." She said.
Hearing this made Dylan laugh as he remembered her saying 'A prank' the last day.
"I can remember you saying it was a prank." Dylan said and Carl looked confused.
"You shouldn't have pranked me last night as I made you wear the ring yesterday." He said.
"What do you mean by that?" She asked.
"You pranked me into coming to the Alley and made it look real by sending your worker Sarah to me." He said and Carl was full with rage.
"Sarah planned all this. I guess it is a set up." She said but Dylan raised his hands up.
"As instructed by Sarah, I shouldn't be angry at you. So why would she set this up?, Do no harm to the young lady, she did as you instructed her but didn't tell me it's a prank." Dylan said.
"Sarah!" Carl called confused.
"I will like to meet with you today maybe at the Alley." Dylan said and got up.
Seeing Dylan leave her office, Carl put a call through to Sarah.
"Come right to my office." She said and ended the call.
Sarah walked into her office some minutes later.
"Yes Miss, you called for me." Sarah said walking into her office.
Carl took a deep breath looking at Sarah.
"I should talk with her politely." She thought to herself.
"Do have your sit." Carl said to Sarah who took her sit.
"Are you in need of a boyfriend?" She asked and Sarah smiled.
"Yes Miss but may I know why you ask." Sarah said and Carl smiled.
"I want to know if you have gotten one." Carl said and Sarah sighed looking at Carl.
"I have someone who I like but he likes an important person so I have to make him like me." She said.
"And how do you want to get him?" Carl asked.
"I don't know but after whatever tactics I use, if he doesn't still like me, I will like him alone." Sarah said making Carl smile.
"I know my Dylan won't leave me for her." Carl said to herself and smiled.
"Alright." Carl said.
"Anything more?" Sarah asked minutes after as Carl didn't say anything.
"Okay. You may leave." Carl said shaking her head and Sarah walked away.
Carl smiled taking a deep breath as Sarah left her office.
"Dylan is mine." She said to herself.
.....
Sarah stepped the office she works in and went to take her sit.
She placed her head on the table as she wondered why Carl was concerned about her boyfriend.
"Sarah, what's wrong?" Clara asked walking up to her with a cup of tea but she only shook her head.
"You can't tell me that there is nothing." Clara said taking a sit beside Sarah.
"It's the boss." Sarah said.
Clara had formed a bond with Sarah ever since her first fashion show in the fashion house as she wanted it to be hard for Sarah to suspect her.
"What's it?" She asked Sarah.
"The boss asked me of my boyfriend." Sarah answered.
"Which you don't have." Clara said.
"But you know that I have someone I love." Sarah said and Clara nodded.
"But he doesn't love you which is the reason you are going to try all you can to win his heart." Clara said and she nodded.
Clara smiled knowing that it's because of her date with Dylan, Carl called Sarah.
"Yes I am going to fight in order to get him." Sarah said.
Clara smiled touching Sarah.
"I hope you will get the one you love." She said and Sarah nodded.
"Thank you for being a friend who I can share my worries to." Sarah said and Clara smiled.
"It's all my pleasure." Clara said and left.
.....
At the end of the day's work, Carl left for her house and was greeted by Melinda who stayed late in the house.
"What happened, Melinda?" She asked.
"Miss, I felt sleepy after cleaning the house and just woke up few seconds ago." Melinda said.
"Alright, you may take your leave." She said and Melinda nodded.
"Alright, Miss." She said taking a bow and left the house.
Seeing that she was away, Carl looked at her ring finger and kissed it.
"You will forever be mine." She said crossing her heart.
She ran up the stairs in order to get changed and do some makeup before going to the location for the date.
Getting to her room, she pulled on her towel and walked to her bathroom.
Minutes after having her shower, she pulled on a beautiful brown gown.
"This is perfect." She said.
Done dressing, she walked to the chair in her room and took her make up kit and began to do her makeup.
Some minutes later, she walked to her living room with style.
Getting to the living room, she looked around then went to the kitchen where she poured for herself a cup of tea.
"Perfect!" She exclaimed tasting the tea.
Done with the tea, she walked to the living room and sat on a couch. She rested a bit then looked up.
Minutes later, she walked out of the house, locking the door behind her then walked to her car.
She got into the car and drove to the location she was to meet Dylan.
"Where is Dylan?" She asked getting into the restaurant.
She brought her phone out of her bag and placed a call through to Dylan who did not answer. She called him two more times but he didn't answer making her fidget.
"Where do you want to sit, Miss?" A worker asked her and she smiled.
She walked to an empty table and sat on one of the chairs.
"What will you like to have, Miss?" A waiter asked but she shook her head.
Few minutes later, Dylan walked to the table with his guard.
"Do have your sit." He said pulling out a chair for him.
"Dylan!" Carl called holding his hand.
"Have you made an order?" He asked but Carl shook her head.
"No, I haven't." She said.
Dylan looked up and called for a waiter.
"Get us some cake and drink." He said then looked at Carl when the waiter had gone.
"You should leave us." He said to the guard.
"Alright Mister." The guard said and left to an empty table but kept his eye on them.
Dylan turned to Carl and looked into her eyes.
"I am really happy that you are here today." He said then placed his hands on Carl's hands.
"I am also." Carl said and Dylan smiled.
He sighed and sat up straight as the waiter brought some cakes and drinks.
"Alright thanks." He said to the waiter.
He turned to Carl and raised up her hand. He kissed her ring finger making her blush.
"I won't want you to repeat what has happened last night." He said and Carl opened her mouth to speak but was interrupted by Dylan who continued speaking.
"If ever you want to send someone to me, do not ever call Sarah." He said and she nodded.
"Alright, I will see what to do." Carl said as she did not understand what Dylan was saying.
"Do not relieve her of her work because she is the reason I am not angry with you but still do not tell her to meet me." Dylan said. "She dressed seductively."
Carl began to laugh hearing that Sarah dressed seductively.
"Oh sorry for the laugh but I can't help but laugh. You said she dressed seductively." Carl said laughing.
"Yes she did." Dylan said which made Carl smile the more.
She imagined how Sarah would have looked like.
"Alright." Carl said. "Let's eat."
They picked up a cake and began eating.
Done eating, Dylan made the payment for their food and ordered that a pack of food should be put in a polythene. He gave it to the guard and together the three walked out.
"I guess we should see the movies in a day by visiting the theater." Carl said and Dylan touched her hair.
"Since when?" He asked.
She laughed remembering when he made her watch a movie.
"Ever since you made me watch one." She said and they both laughed.
After discussing for some minutes, they baded themselves goodbye and entered their car.
