" Hey " Sara greeted as soon as she sighted Mel.

" Hey " Mel answered. Kelly was in the kitchen too, and Charles, a waiter who had taken a liking to Melody since she started working in the restaurant. He was not in when the incident happened and had looked really pissed the moment Kelly explained what happened in his absence. He looked Melody over thoroughly the minute he saw her, searching for injuries. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw none.

" Should I accompany you home? " He asked nervously.

Mel smiled and reached out to touch him " No Charles, I'll be fine " and she squeezed his shoulders.

Charles looked doubtful, " Are you sure? Will you be alright alone? "

Kelly spoke up, " Charles is right, Mel. Will you be okay alone? You never know with guys these days. They're dangerous, Mel. Just allow him to take you home, hmmn? " She coaxed.

Sara intervened too, adding " Kelly is

Mel withdrew her hands and sat back in her seat. It dawned on her then that he wasn't sick. His body had just reacted to the physical contact. He was human after all.

" I knew a powerful guy like him would have many enemies. I think it would better to cut ties with him. If you're seen with him very often, you'll be targeted too " Sara said quickly, her face showed a fleet of emotions.

" Are you listening to me at all? " She grabbed Mel's hands and squeezed them tightly in hers.

" Yeah I thought so too. I really want to cut off any ties with him but it's not so easy. He keeps showing up everywhere " She sighed.

Sara smiled at that, " Destiny can't be cheated, Mel and it can't be changed too. You just have to enjoy your youth and deal with the challenges "

" Oh yeah? " Mel asked rhetorically and she went out of the kitchen to attend to more customers. Brent was nowhere in sight and Mel immediately felt a pinge of disappointment. A colleague blocked her way and dragged her into a corner.

" Kelly! What's wrong? " Mel put her hands on her chest to cal

Mel smiled, " I'll be fine guys, I promise. B
