Arya’s POV

I stared at my watch for the umpteenth time. It was 8pm. I sighed. I gazed down at my lap. The once Agile son of mine is now in a deep sleep. It was his bed time and exactly way past any kind of picnic.

“Come on Kelsi let’s go inside” I said as cried my son and began leaving the beach.

“Wait Arya—“

“Angus I don’t want to hear any of those excuses for your boss” I snapped at him. Kelsi looked sad. The both of them. I began to feel guilty for the way I had spoken to them.

“I’m sorry guys” I muttered. Kelsi came around and engulfed me in a bear hug.

“I understand baby” she mumbled. When she released me, I stared into her eyes recalling how crazy I was last night. She had sat through all my ranting’s. Talking about how Chase didn’t like me anymore and what not. She told me that it was all in my head. As Chase was still crazy for me. Then he asked me out on a picnic date. I was ecstatic. Over the moon. Only for him to stand me up.

Slowly I stood up from the mat. “Help me” I said

Leave me alone” I began to walk further and I noticed he wasn’t following me. I felt disappointment. He just wanted his son and not me. “I don’t think I’m important to him”With the speed of light, Chase zoomed and was right in front of me. I almost jumped. he looked like that cold ass guy I had met first. He had that sort of look that seemed like he was smirking at me. I hissed. He is still being cocky.“You are important to me.” He stated as he willed me to look into his eyes. I didn’t know I had said that out loud.When I saw that he had answered that. I tried for another question I had deep in my heart.“Even if I was important I don’t know how you feel about me. I don’t know–“Immediately Chase grabbed me and pushed me against a tree. “Do you want to know how I feel for you?” his voice was dangerously low. My heart thundered that I thou

I was no fool to notice how she has been trying to always being his face. She wanted my man and that irked me so bad.“ Oh my God— Angus ran his hands over his head, the exhaustion in his eyes was so obvious even to the blind but right now I didn’t care– “babe how many times am I going to tell you that Rita was just doing that to get to you. You know –“ I cut him short.“oh please save your same old explanation for the next dummy because that is not me!” I slammed the glass a bit too hard on the kitchen counter. I began to cook dinner. As I was mixing the fruits that night, I was boiling on the inside.“And also Angus, Rita likes you—” I turned to find out that it was me raging in my kitchen. I c

I nodded.“Oh” I smiled or rather sighed. “I got tired and decided to come upstairs” I said cleaning underneath my son’s bed.“Oh really?” she asked.“Yes really” I replied.

    Chase's POVI couldn't believe as those words left her mouth. How could Arya say those things to me.“What?” I blinked furiously like one under the sun. “ You shouldn't say this. Take it back now!”“And what if I say that? Huh? “ She barked.“You don't mean it Arya. “ I said. I moved closer to her but she backed away. “ See no matter what it is, we can get this solved. We can something about it”She shook her head vehemently. “ Nah”“What?”“I Mean it's too late!”she glared at me and didn't cower for a moment. Like she was second guessing her thoughts.“How could you say that?” I asked. Arya looked away and she tapped het foot against the floor. “ I mean…. Like where is this coming from?”“From me! Me! You heard it right” she spat. “ I mean you can go ahead with Mika…what ever you want to do” she squeezed her face as she said those words. “ While I will be busy with Jake”And then Arya walked out of my office.

Her eyes danced with a familiar look I was now used to whenever she was excited.“Hmm, babe, you know I’m not a very good liar, so I’ll tell you everything.” I smiled.So I began to tell her how I had the most mind-blowing and body-shaking sex ever with Chase. In all my life, I have never had beautiful sex. At least now I can agree with everyone that make-up sex is the best sex.Chase used his hands and lips on my body to tell me how he had truly missed me and how I still mean the world to him. I was the happiest person. It is and will always be the best time in my life.After we had the best sex, we began to talk about us. It was healing and beautiful.“Wow, it was really something. I have always told you that Chase was different than all the others.” She held my hands as we crossed the road back to the office.“Yeah, you said that.” I blushed as I remembered our time together. Kelsi always had a nose of sniffing good men. She was

    Arya’s POV“Will you come in?” I asked Chase.“Do you want me to come in?” he asked, and I nodded, and he smiled.Chase had managed to help me dry my dress, and I entered one of the stalls and got dressed. He offered to take me home, and after I tried to reject, he insisted. I decided to invite him in for Coffee in the office. If we managed to go to the palace, the rumor would start spreading, and this might cause more trouble between us. I know I was the only one who thought of this because when I suggested we come to my office, he readily agreed.“How has life been?’ he asked as he took a sip of his coffee.“Good,” I said. It felt weird that we were sharing the same space after a while. I badly wanted to ask him if I had been forgiven, but I didn’t want to ruin the mood. Maybe I would ask later, but now all I wanted was to eat him up with my lips. He went quiet, and so did I. The silence was eating me up, and I knew I had to do something about it.“Have you forgiven me?” I asked as

    Arya’s POVMy heart raced as the pair of legs kept standing without saying a word. What was this? I grabbed a broom thingy leaning on the wall. I glanced at the door and cursed. If only I was fast enough. Suddenly, those legs moved, and I raised an eyebrow. Hey, that seemed familiar.“Chase,” I whispered. He finally came out of one of the toilet stalls. He was going through his phone and had a drink in his other hand. Was he drunk?“Please don’t stop on my account,” Chase muttered, and when he looked up at me, he had a wide smile on his face. I thought as I stared at his face that He looked more handsome smiling. Seeing him smile did a bit to my head. It was at that moment that I made up my mind that beaming Chase was the best version of him that I loved. Then I remembered myself and snapped.“I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were there. I got carried away with the music.” I muttered as I played with a loose strand on the sweatshirt while staring at the floor. My face had gone red on seei

    Arya's POVThey said it was because you left him, and that's why he has nightmares.Kelsi's words stuck to my brain like glue. How could I forget that?“Have you seen him again?” Kelsi asked me when I didn’t reply to her. Her voice was quite louder this time.“Hmm, I didn’t get what you said,” I said feigning seriousness as I intently looked into the laptop. I began working again. I was surprised they took me. Angus might have been behind this.“Come on Arya you forget that I have read you like a book. I know you are trying to avoid this question but something I am very sure of is the fact that you are still in love with Chase. That is one thing you cannot deny.” Kelsi said as she moved to her desk.I looked up at her receding figure and smiled. Kelsi has already found out.However, she was a bit wrong in her statement. I didn’t just love Chase, I miss him. He has been using his new maid to keep me at bay. I barely sew him these daysDince Kelsi told me of his nightmares. It’s been ha

    Arya's POVDo you know that feeling you get when you have a best friend or boyfriend that you always talk to, but suddenly when you don't talk for like 2 days, it feels like it's been a year since you last spoke? Yeah, that's the exact way I felt when I and Kelsi sat down to talk.“Long time” I muttered as I took a sip of my drink, peering up at Kelsi.“No talk” Kelsi completed. She was quiet and so was I. It was like we were lovers who wanted to reconcile.I took in a deep breath. “ Okay, I need to say this before it kills me.” I moved the drink away from me and faced Kelsi in the garden. I took in a deep breath. However, it seemed to be all I was doing lately. I mean it would take balls and a bloated tummy fuller with my pride to apologize for what I had done. It was now I realized what Jake had done told me when we were younger. He told me I was proud and I agreed. I hated being wrong and hated apologizing and due to my penchant for being right always, it was easy to see my flaws a

    Arya's POV “Arya?” It was then that I noticed he had actually opened his eyes.“It's me”He quickly released me as soon as he saw what he was doing.“What were you thinking coming in here?” Chase helped me stand. “ I could have killed you” I felt stupid suddenly. For getting into his space and all. I seared at the floor. “ I was only trying to wake you. I didn't mean to startle you” I replied.He ran a hand over his hair sighing. “Even though.” He said. “ You should not have come in here”I turned sharply. “ But I couldn't just let you suffer like the last time”He snorted. “Like you care”My eyes widened in an emotion I couldn't put my hands on. Yes, it was true. I and Chase were not friends. Especially now I am closer to Jake or was deceived by him. But then I didn't consider Chase an enemy. Despite what might have happened between us, I could never forget what he had done for me. For Chamberlin. They might seem little but they were something.I took a step toward him. “I know we

    Arya's POVAnd so that night I went to bed with a heavy heart of course I couldn't sleep. Lying on the bed eyes wide that an owl. I wasn't going to lie, I felt lonely. I noticed a change in behavior from Chamberlain. He rarely told me about his day. It was sort of our ritual to Bond. I sat up in bed. This has been going on for a long time. It was only now that I noticed the distance between me and my son. Guilt ate at me. Was I a bad mother? I mean I should have noticed this. From then on I began to do a lot of thinking in retrospect.Kelsi had a point. Truly I might not have done the best thing in terms of Jake and Chase. Maybe if I had confronted Chase, maybe just maybe I might have understood what happened. I hissed. It's all late now. The guy now hates me. He can't even stand the sight of me. I guess that is why I haven't seen him in a long time apart from that night. I still remember the way he shoved me out of the room. I know he was trying to be gentle but he was also angry.I

    Arya’s POVI blinked like I was under the sun. “Excuse me?”“You heard me” retorted. I felt my cheeks awash with embarrassment. Was he deliberating misunderstanding me or what? My intent was as clear as day.I looked away. “I thought someone was hurt… I mean I thought you were hurt and—““No one is hurt” he cut me off immediately. I stared at him to see the weary look in his face but then the hard disguise was back again.“Go back to bed” he spat. Before I could say Jack he gently shoved me out of his room and slammed the door in my face. I stood in the hallway wondering if I had imagined the entire thing, from the scream to being shoved out of the room like some nuisance. Anger rose in my chest but I somehow found a way to suppress it. I swallowed my ego and went back into my room.On my bed, I lay tossing and turning like I had a heavy meal. Well yeah being insulted as heavy enough to have me having insomnia. After a while, I managed to get to sleep but it was a few hours before d

    Arya's POVI walked into my bedroom and flooped down on the bed.I sighed. It's been a long day trying to teach Chamberlin. Jake had promised to come hit now he was no where to be found. Maybe he had pack business. I will text him tomorrow.I closed my eyes for a moment but then I remembered that I could sleep off. I sniffed my dress and I did not like what I perceived. I had to take a shower.Dragging myself like a ragdoll I walked into the bathroom. I ran cold water into the bath to cool my Head. I showered in quick time and climbed out of the tub before I could sleep while thinking about him. I hadn't seen him for a while and I stopped to wonder how he was doing. Was he eating well or freedom well.As far as I was concerned, I think I was now a pariah. The only people I spoke to were The maids and Chamberlin. Kelsi has refused to see me or talk to me. I saw less of Angus too. It was like everyone had deserted me.I picked up the pink silk night wear, my paid had left out for me a
