When Gregory drop his resignation letter, he find out that the clause attached to one wanting to step down from been the company CEO is far too much and they ended up confiscating everything he had ever works for, including his mansion and his cars.
His dad is determined to frustrates him but this time, he doesn't want to be selfish, he didn't want to elope with Whitney because he felt that, he can't give her the good life, she deserves, if they elope but now, he could do trivial job just to get by every day
Since Jeremy has also made it possible that no one employ him.
Thanks brother, we really appreciate it. Whitney said hugging him. Don't thank me, you are my sister, so I should Care about you.
Thanks man! Gregory said shaking hand with him. I wouldn't...
I should be the one thanking you, you left all your luxury just for my sister, that is to show that, your love for her is pure, I and my wife really appreciate it.
He said pulling Betty more to himself, Gregory smile, whenever he see them, he see Craig, they just remind him of Craig and Cathy, they love each other right from the first day but no one is bold enough to tell his feelings, he just hope that wherever they are, Craig can finally express himself to her
Even though, Craig kissed her every single time, he meet with her, is like they were dating when they are not, she still doesn't know.
Whitney and Gregory still have to leave, they all start a new life, Cathy and Craig life is more difficult because they have run out of cash, they are still in hiding, they live an old couple yard, the old couple have only one son who live abroad and immediately they saw Cathy and Craig, they accepted them, so they didn't have much problem looking for accommodation, since they needed someone who will care for their building, they live at the outskirts
For six months, they live on the cash George gave to them, now the money is no more, they barely have what to eat.
Craig, come on, let's eat. Cathy called him
I am not hungry. Craig said. You are kidding right? That's same thing, you said in the morning, you don't like my cooking because it's not sweet?
No oh! I just said I don't want to eat. Then it's because the food taste bitter. Cathy said, Craig smile and caress her face.
Don't be ridiculous, if I eat from it, it will not be enough for you to eat and we don't even have where to get another.
So? Go on and eat, if you are telling the truth. Craig didn't have choice than to eat it. I will be going to that construction site down town, I heard they are looking for laborers.
Can you do that? Cathy asked him. Yes, I could if that will give us food. Cathy hugged him. But be careful, make sure no one recognize you and by the way my hair is getting longer, so we will have to cut it after we finish eating.
Craig frown, he hate it when she have her cut, it was him who cut it the first time, so people don't recognize her but he wish she doesn't have to.
Cathy must we have it cut? He asked. Yes, the other day at the market, someone said I look like a girl in the billboard, I don't know the kind of billboard, so I don't want to take chances.
After they finish eating Craig cut her hair, she is looking different with the miserable cloths she wears, you could barely see that she is cute, Craig wants to go in the morning but Cathy insist on going with him. Cathy, do you have to go with me? Craig asked her.
Yes, so I could bring food for you, when I am done. Craig laughed and pulled her more to himself, Craig is surviving all this months because of Cathy, her love and care is one thing, he can't trade for diamond.
Cathy wait patiently for him, Craig is talking to the supervisors, he look at him then at Cathy.
So she wants to work too? The supervisor asked. No, she is with me.
Your girlfriend? He asked again, he shake his head.
Alright, you can join the other at the end of the day, your pay is five thousand but if the boss come, he normally give extra bonus, so you go home with more than that a day especially when you have strength to work.
Thanks! Craig said, he walked back to Cathy. I got it, so you should go home or wait let me see you off.
No way, go start working, I could find my way home.
Are you sure? Craig asked, Cathy peck him. Yes, bye.
Craig smile, he turned, he hit a boy. Sorry!
Craig said, he smiled.
Your girlfriend is fine. He look at him. Yes, I heard you talking to the supervisors, my name is Prosper.
And you are?
Crag!
Instead of saying Craig, he said Crag, that Is the only way to save the situation. Alright, I think we will make a good team.
Prosper said, the day went fast, Cathy just feed herself with fruit through the day, when Craig is done, he hurry home, Prosper watch him as he hurry out.
Cathy is lying on the bed when he returns. Cathy! he call her. Are you back? I am right here.
She call out to him, he rushed into the room. I am back, I brought some things we could cook with and here, you should have this. She looks at it.
Flowers! Cathy rush it, she inhale it. I like it, where do you get it?
I pluck it, I thought you might need one. Craig said and the next thing, she peck him. I love it, my first flower all my life.
I am glad my lady like it.
