Raina looked up at him and her body began to tremble in the same spot. Her throat went dry and she stepped back. Then Kenny's dad came out of the kitchen.

"Mr Martin! You are welcome. Please come inside."

"Thank you, Mr Steve." Max went inside and sat on the chair. He was accompanied by a beautiful young woman who made Raina's heartache.

When Kenny's father saw Raina standing there, he quickly asked her. " Dear, You are not gone." There he was calling her at that time but she was just staring at Max.

She didn't know what to say at the time and she was just looking at Max. Kenny's father saw her staring at Max and began to worry about her. He thought Max would be angry if he sees her looking at him like this. So he said to her. "Dear, This is Mr Martin and Mr Martin this is Raina. My daughter."

"My daughter?" As soon as Raina heard this, she turned her neck and started looking at Kenny's father with wide eyes. Again tears started flowing from her eyes. No one had called her 'my daughter' before. Everyone had hurt her. She had heard bad words for her since childhood.

"Raina you go home now." Kenny's father called her again. She nodded her head and walked towards the door. Before she could go too far, Max yelled at her. "Miss Raina, I have heard that you can make a very nice coffee. Can you make it for two of us?" Upon hearing this, her steps halted. She knew he was doing it all on purpose.

She turned and went into the kitchen. He smirked as he watched her walk into the kitchen.

"How do you know her name?" The girl who was accompanying him asked, placing her hand on his shoulder.

"Didn't you hear when Mr Steve was taking her name?"

"Yes, I forgot about it." She agreed, but she did not realize that Max had taken her name before Mr Steve. Soon Raina brought two cups of coffee in the tray and placed them on the table in front of them. Just as she was about to leave, Max stopped her again. "Miss Raina, how long have you been working here?" Her heart ached whenever Max called her Miss. His every word was piercing her like a needle at that time. She couldn't believe it was the same Max she was in love with.

"Miss I have asked you something." He asked her again. She lowered her eyes and opened her mouth slightly to answer him. But before the words came out of her mouth,

Mr Steve spoke. "She has been working here form the last four days."

" Is that so." He said raising his eyebrows.

"This girl." He said pointing to Raina Kare. "Are not go to college."

" No!"

"IF you don't mind can I ask why?"

Kenny's father sighed and saw Raina. "Dear! Go inside. I have put the special dish in the micro oven. After five minutes, add oil and put them in the microwave oven again." Kenny's father didn't want to talk about Raina in front of her. He didn't want to hurt her feeling.

"Mrs Martin. Raina is not my biological daughter. But for me, she is no less than my daughter. She is a very good child. At that time she asked me for a job. She has no one in this world. She is an orphan." Hearing this, a different kind of emotion flashed in Max's eyes. "Raine had saved my daughter's life five days earlier."

The principal and other staff of the college entered the canteen. Also, the entry of students started in the canteen. All the staff in the college sat around Max. The principal joined Max and started discussing with him. Kenny was also in the canteen because of the break.

Now Kenny, Raina and Mr Steve started serving special dishes to everyone.

It was a very heavy time for Raina. She was in pain whenever she saw him smiling with the girl sitting next to him. Which was evident in her eyes. Which was didn't go unnoticed by Kenny, and she wondered if there was anything between Max and Raina. But she did not understand what could happen between a normal girl like Raina and a world-renowned cardiologist. And all these same thoughts were in the head of the girl who came with Max. The way Max was looking at Raina made her feel a little strange.

Raina picked up the empty glass from the table and began to put it in the tray.

"Take this money." That girl holds cash in front of Raina. Raina was confused and she asked, "But why, ma'am."

"Mr Steve told us all about your poor condition. This money will help you."

"I am sorry ma'am but I can't take this money. Also, I am happy with my situation." Just as Raina was about to put the glass in the tray, the girl started laughing which made everyone's attention go to her. "You don't want this money."

"No, ma'am," Raina answered very politely. But Max was furious to see that the girl offered Raina the money, and he tightened his grip on the coffee cup.

"If you don't want money, then why are you trying to flirt with Max?"

"What?" Raina said widening her eyes.

"Yes. I see from the beginning that you are trying to flirt with him." The girl's voice was so loud that she drew the attention of everyone in the canteen to her.

Raina never thought she would ever hear everything like this. She had faced a lot of problems in her life but she never took a bad path. Yes, She was a bit funny but there was a reason behind her behaviour. She used to do funny things to keep herself out from her past.

And in front of her, Zuri was accusing her of flirting with someone Raina loved more than herself.
