He went back to the room where Anna was. "How are you feeling now?" he asked while walking up to her. "water" she said and her voice was hoa.r.s.e. He hurriedly poured water on the empty gla.s.s on the bedside drawer and handed it over to her. She gulped the water down in a haste and requested for another and he gave it to her. This time, she drank it slowly. When she was done, she handed the gla.s.s over to him and asked "what am I doing here and what did the doctor say?""You fainted at the club last night. The doctor said you had a panic attack and you"re to be kept under strict observation for a week". "But what about my work. I have so many unfinished doc.u.ments to complete and.." "I already told someone to fill in for you" he said cutting her short.
She wanted to say more than that but the drama from last night came back to her and she suddenly felt nervous and ashamed. Ben had always known her to be a fat yet innocent girl but she wondered if what happened last night change the way in which Ben viewed her. She suddenly felt humiliated and turned her back on Ben.
He knew what she was thinking about so he said "I understand why you were working at the club. Phillip is a friend of mine and he has been talking about how nice you are and hardworking. At first I never knew who he was referring to but when I saw you last night, I knew it was you". "If you knew who I was, why did you ask for a one-night stand". "I"m so sorry about that. I didn"t mean it I swear. I said that inorder for you to have enough money to pay off your debt and stop working in that place. But I never intended on having s.e.x with you, I promise". "okay, so how did you find out my true ident.i.ty, I was wearing a mask".
"If you can remember clearly, you told me "I"m sorry sir" last night and your voice sounded exactly as the girl who sneaked into my office".
"oh" she said suddenly realizing. "wait, then how did you know I was Anna from college?" she asked her he suddenly became shy and nervous.
