A Little More than Strangers Chapter 7
"You prefer Mocha Espresso Right?"Via nodded. She watched Troye talk to the intercom about their order and smiled. He even brought her to her favorite coffee shop to buy her usual drink. That meeting was not made on a whim. To her, Troye prepared everything in advance and made sure that she would enjoy her time with him.Was it what they call a date? Her cheeks felt warm at the thought. Why would they go on a date? For sure, Troye never considered having a date with her since they were already having marriage talks between them. Trying to ease her mind from the sudden unnecessary thoughts, she tried to focus her attention on the view outside the car. She enjoyed the silence between them as Troye continued to drive towards their destination."We're here."The car stopped at the entrance of the Park. Troye was about to remove his seatbelt, but Via stopped him."I can go out of the car on my own. No need to always open the door for me." Since she already knew what Troye was up to, she ha

“This is just like I imagined it to be...” Via mumbled as they entered the gates of the amusement park. She looked around, her eyes sparkling like a child’s her sight fell into the colorful paradise around her.“I didn’t expect you to be this happy with just this.” Troye chuckled. He was hesitant at first, but he was relieved that he tried bringing her to that place.He thought that Via would be more uncomfortable and forced since the outing happened out of a sudden. That was why it was really unfortunate that Via seemed to like the idea of going to an amusement park. He should thank his little sister for the idea she gave him.“Well, it’s my first time going to places like this. It’s normal that I would be amazed, right?” Via looked away, her cheeks flushed from embarrassment.“Of course, it’s normal.” Troye chuckled as he led the way.Though he was glad to see that Via was having fun, he could not stop feeling bad for her. He knew that they all got different circumstances, but how c

“How was it?” Odin asked as soon as Collin entered his office.“They were getting along well for the past few days.” Collin let out a smile. “I knew he would be a good match for Via, but he exceeded expectations.”“That’s for the better. As long as the two were getting along with each other, the bond between the two families will grow stronger.”Collin’s smile faded. Though Odin was their father, he still felt like a stranger at times like that. He could have just wished the two well; how could he emphasize the mergers that would happen once the two were married?For him, Via was his precious sister. There was nothing more important for him than her. But he was still powerless against their father. All he could do for her was to make sure that she would marry a decent guy. They were lucky that their father chose Troye. Though he did not like him at first, he conducted a background investigation about him and found out that he was the best match for her. He was kind, polite, thoughtful

“He’s here to pick you up again.” Cassie rolled her eyes.It had been weeks since the announcement of her engagement with Troye, and it had been a usual thing for Troye to pick her up after her classes. He was really serious about getting to know each other more and they were hitting it off pretty well.“Do you want to come with us, Cassie?” Troye offered as soon as he saw Cassie’s pouting face.“Why would I be third-wheeling for the two of you?” Cassie said in an annoyed tone.“Why not? Via and I are just hanging out so we could bring another person with us if we want to.”Via smiled. Troye was indeed considerate. He was not just trying to win her over; he was also trying to get along with her best friend.“Can I invite my sister, Vi? Tricia wants to see you again.”Via nodded her head before she looked at Cassie. “You won’t be third-wheeling if we include Troye’s sister, right?”Cassie sighed in defeat. “I guess I can’t do anything if you wanted me that much.”Troye opened the backse

“Are you okay, Vi? It’s rare for you to sleep in.” Collin opened the door to Via’s room to check on her. He saw his sister still asleep, but her forehead was creased. Was she not feeling well?He checked her temperature through her forehead and was relieved that she was not having a fever. He shook his sister lightly to wake her up.“You’re going to school today, right?” Collin asked as soon as Via opened her eyes.“What time is it?” Via, who was still sleepy, asked as she covered herself with her blanket.“It’s already eight in the morning. We’re done with our breakfast,” Collin informed her. “Should I ask the maids to bring your breakfast here if you’re not feeling well?”“Yes, please.” Her lazy tone made Collin laugh.“It’s very rare for you to act all lazy like this, Vi.” Collin stood up and walked towards the door. “I’ll have your breakfast sent here so make sure you eat, okay?”“I will.” Via closed her eyes again, and she could feel her head throbbing early in the morning.

“How was it?” Cassie asked as soon as she was out.“We’ve done some tests and I need to wait for the results to know my condition,” Via explained as she tried to appear calm even when deep inside her whole being was shaken.“I hope it wasn’t anything serious,” Cassie mumbled as she clasped her hands in worry.As Via sat in the waiting room, her fingers fidget nervously in her lap. She couldn't shake the feeling of dread that clung to her like a heavy cloak. The ticking of the clock on the wall seemed to echo in her ears, each passing second only serving to heighten her anxiety.Beside her, Cassie sat with a reassuring hand placed gently on her shoulder, her presence a welcome comfort in the midst of Via's turmoil. "Hang in there, Via," she whispered, her voice a soothing balm to Via's frayed nerves. "You're strong, I believe you can handle whatever the result would be. Remember that I’m always here for you."Via managed a weak smile, though it did little to dispel the knot of tension t

The morning sun filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow across Via's bedroom as she slowly blinked her eyes open. She lay in bed for a moment, her mind still heavy with the weight of the things she discovered yesterday. As she stretched her limbs, she couldn't shake the nagging sense of unease that gnawed at her insides.With a sigh, she pushed herself upright, running a hand through her tousled hair as she swung her legs over the edge of the bed. Today was a symbol of a fresh start, she reminded herself. But despite trying to be optimistic, her heart and mind were once again filled with worries about what was about to happen. What should she do from now on?It took a lot of courage for her to get out of bed and prepare for another day at school. Before she went out of her room, she checked her phone, and her heart felt heavy when she saw Troye’s missed calls and texts.How could she face him after knowing her situation? She could no longer get married to him. Once she tells

“Dad…” Via’s lips trembled as she called for the familiar man before her. He was still the same. She would always find him seated in his working area whenever she went to his office. Her father's head snapped up at the sound of her voice, and there was a stunned silence for a moment. Then, in a move that took her completely by surprise, he stood up and hurried over to her, enveloping her in a tight hug. Via froze, her body stiff with shock. She couldn't remember the last time her father had hugged her like this, with such raw emotion. "I'm sorry, my child," her father whispered, his voice thick with regret. The tears threatening to spill finally broke free, streaming down her cheeks. She had never expected to hear those words from him, words she had longed for all these years. With just those words, all the fear and the pain that she thought she had forgotten was completely washed away. Something heavy was lifted from her chest, and she could not stop herself from bawling her

“Did you wait long?” Cassie asked when she saw Via waiting near the entrance of the subdivision.“No. I just arrived here.” Via entered her best friend’s car, and Cassie started maneuvering towards the main house.“I’m not really sure if this is a good thing, but I want you to know that I’ll always take your side,” Cassie assured her when she noticed her unusual silence.“How were the kids?” Via asked. Truth be told, she was not anxious about meeting her dad again. She was just worried about the kid; they were all she could think of now.“They were fine. Though they haven’t met Dad because Collin insisted that you needed to be there for him to meet them.”Via let out a sigh of relief. It was a good thing Collin was able to have their dad compromise, even just a little. She would have gone mad if the kids had ended up being hurt and she was not there.As the scenery became more familiar, nostalgia washed over her. It had been years since she last stepped foot in that subdivision, but i

As Via stepped into the office, she couldn't contain her excitement. Today would be a half-day at work, and she was eager to wrap up her tasks and head home to spend time with her children. But that didn't mean she would slack off—far from it. If anything, Via felt even more driven to make the most of her time at the office.Via dove into her work, tackling each task with precision and determination. She was focused, efficient, and a little competitive, pushing herself to exceed her expectations. She lost track of time as she immersed herself in her projects, the hours flying by in a blur of productivity.As the clock ticked closer to the end of her shift, Via's phone rang, jolting her out of her concentration. She glanced at the caller ID and saw her brother's name flashing on the screen. Curious, she answered the call."Hey, Collin. What's up?" Via greeted him, trying to mask the hint of anxiety in her voice."Hey, Via. I need you to come to the main house after work," Collin said,
