Chapter 21
FAKE IDENTITY
Finn’s POV
“It is past 12 in the midnight Finn. When did you start sleeping so late?” Alex peeped through the door before coming into my room.
“Since I started working at mom’s company, trust me Alex it’s ain’t easy” I closed my laptop and kept it aside.
“I know right, I have never been interested in wearing suits to offices. Working at home is way better, imagine exploring the internet, finding new discoveries, creating new accounts and identities only by sitting and operating the computer all day is much more better” Alexander said.
At first, I thought Alex only came to check up on me and might leave soon but instead, he drew nearer, lied down on my bed and covered himself with my duvet.
“So are you done with the company’s work?” Alex inquired
“Nah, I’ll continue tomorrow. I’m very tied” I groaned, stretching my hands.
“Same here” Alex said
“What do you think you’re doing Alexander?” I queried.
“What does it look like?” He answered a question with a question
“You left your room to come sleep here?”
He concurred, nodding his head innocently.
I scoffed, with inaudible groan, Arrrrgh!
“How’s Rita, the love of your life?” Alex asked, ignoring the fact that I was upset because he kept intruding into my privacy.
“We’re cool at least, we are now getting along” I answered him.
“Have you told her about your feelings?” He asked,
I stared into the space for a while before nodding in affirmation.
“So would she like to date you?” He interrogated.
“I…I hope so”
If only he knew that there’s more attached to it.
“You really think there’s no girl that wouldn’t date a billionaire because of his wealth?”
“Rita is just different. I.. I don’t know her too well though. I want her, I’m really in love with her” I replied.
” I have an idea Finn”
Finn smirked; ” What idea?”
“I can help you create an anonymous account, fake your identity, pretend like a poor man trying to find true love” He suddenly paused. “Oh geez Finn, Love station could have been the best place for you to do this, now it’s late”
“It’s not late, I’ll do that on Kikachat” I teased, knowing fully well that he’ll get envious.
Alexander hissed: “You never supported my own application Finn, I told you to join Love station, you refused, now you won’t hesitate to create an account on someone else’s app” He felt a little sober.
“C’mon Alex, I was only joking. I won’t join Kikachat, Infact I’ve never been interested in online dating, I mean… what if the so called lady turns out to be assless and b**bless. I prefer to physically see what I’m getting myself into” He said, which made Alexander laugh out loud. “Almost everyone on online platforms are living a fake life” This buttresses my point.
“I agree Finn. You won’t believe that someone actually used my own pictures on my own love station app; I was gonna track down the person when the app had crashed, Jeez!”
“Really? Your pictures? The person was pretending to be you? I guess you are very handsome” Finn teased and he smiled.
“I have a very great physique right?” Alex boasted, hardening the bone cartilage on his elbow.
I chuckled.
“I can see that” I yawned, gradually getting bored of the conversation. “So, in conclusion, ain’t joining any dating platform and I don’t need to fake my identity for any reason. Remember, I am a love doctor myself, I will know if someone truly is in love with me. Same way, I know that Rita and I are meant to be together, I just need to make her fall in love with me” I concluded, lying down properly and covering myself with the duvet.
“End of discussion”
