Chapter: Chapter 11: The Misunderstanding"When nails grow long, we cut nails, not fingers. Similarly, when misunderstanding grows up, cut your ego, not your relationship." - UnknownAlessandra's POVAfter like a decade, the car finally pulled into an endless driveway. Finally, a big house stood in a big lawn looking very classy. It was made out of bricks walls, finished in white, mated with tempered glass windows and doors, bordered with laminate wood, finished in black touch.On the facade, there are some wall lights, that make his house look brighter. The building is also completed with a garage. It is located on the left side of the main building. It is quite wide and large to park four cars. To get to the main road, which is far from the house, the pathways was made of cobblestones.I was standing there in awe. I just love it. "I just bought this couple years ago," he proclaimed, looking proud.I am so surprised why a bachelor like him lives in a house? I know, most bachelors lived in a penthouse or condos, not a house.

Chapter: Chapter 10: The Declaration"Love is not what the mind thinks, but what the hearts wants." - Greg EvansAlessandra's POVI was brushing my teeth when Lucy called out my name from downstairs. "ALI!"She must have been ready to go.I walked out of the washroom door, all the while brushing my teeth, my eyes darting to the small alarm clock that was sitting on the lamp table, it says 7:31 AM, then walking back inside the washroom towards the sink.I was up before the alarm this morning, even though I went to bed late last night. I was waiting for Stavros' call or text. It's past midnight and he never called nor sent a text, and God knows what time when I fell asleep, waiting. Although we talk that night before the party, and he said he will let me know if he will fly back after the party. Well, he didn't promise it, but I waited anyway.It's weird that even I didn't get much sleep I am feeling ecstatic, and I couldn't pinpoint it out why. I know Stavros is not coming back since there's no text or call from him, so t

Chapter: Chapter 9: The Lies"One lie is enough to question all truths." - Anonymous.........Stavros' POVI woke up feeling sticky with sweats, plus a throbbing headache, caused by a damn hangover.My eyes slowly open but closes it again, squinting couple times to adjust my vision with the sun rays flooding the room.I stirred when I felt a hand around my waist, legs intertwined, head on my chest. I remembered I saw Ali's face last night and I remember kissing her.But that's impossible!I move the head gently, her arms, and slowly untangling my legs out of hers, as I slowly get up. I winced when I felt a sharp pinching in my head.I looked back at the woman sleeping peacefully with disarrayed hair above her head and checked who is she? She had a dark brown hair like Alessandra, but shorter.Wait?"Krystina?" an audible gasp broke out my lips when realization dawns on me, hard."Fuck!" I hissed inaudibly between clenched teeth.Shocked, stunned, bewildered, engulfed my whole being.As if on cue she stirred, the

Chapter: Chapter 8: The Friends"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out."- Walter Winchell.......Athens, GreeceStavros' POVAs soon as we landed, I fish out my phone from my pocket and dialed Ali's number as I disembarked from the plane. I just nod my head when Jude and the rest of the attendant said their goodbyes."Alessandra's Speaking." I heard her voice from the other line."Hey, baby, it's me!" I exclaimed excitedly. I terribly missed her. I was walking to the car. Taylor was waiting for me."Ohh hi, Stav! Did you just land?" She asked in her happy tone."Yes, As of a matter of fact I'm about to get in the car. Taylor my driver here in Greece picked me up. He's driving me home now," I smiled.Listening to her voice makes me happy and all that exhausting feelings evaporates into the air."I'm glad you arrived safely., then she paused. "I already miss you," she breathed, then she sighed."I miss you, too, baby! So did you change your mind?" I asked hopefully."No, no," she obje

I'm sorry, but what's mine is mine and I'm not sharing." - Unknown.....................Stavros' POVI have never felt so complete in my life. Alessandra is mine and I can't be happier! I feel like she's the piece that's missing for me. I can't help smiling whenever I remember her. Alessandra is my Girlfriend.Jeez ... I felt like a teenage boy.

Chapter: Chapter 6: The Jealousy"Love is like war, easy to begin but very hard to stop." - H. L. Mencken---------------------------Alessandra's POVWe were both standing in front of my door as I fished out the key from my purse. Stavros waited patiently behind me. I got even more conscious because I could feel his eyes boring into my back.Obviously, he invited himself again, not giving me a choice. After like a decade, I unlocked the door.I heard Lucy's laugh, sounds like she's not alone."Hey, Ali." She got up from the couch when she saw us, and I noticed the guy beside her. He's strikingly handsome in his own way. He even had an ocean blue eyes.What's with all these handsome guys here in New York?"Hi," I said, sheepishly looking at the guy.Who is he? I heard him acknowledge Stavros while I gave Lucy a hug."Ali, I want you to meet Mr. Alexander Russo." Lucy looked at Alexander. "Alex, this is my friend, Alessandra De La Vega. And Mr. Stavros Demakis, which obviously you already knew." She continued, smilin
