Sophie’s Pov
“What? Kiss?” Gia asked above her voice causing me to quickly put my hand over her mouth so Rina wouldn’t pick on our conversation. She had forced me to tell her all that went down with Chres after I told her about our supposed outing with Chresanto tonight.
I had told Rina about it and she hasn’t stopped talking about it since then. Although it was an hour to 7pm, Rina was dressed up already.
“We didn’t kiss” I told her “We almost kissed, but Josh interrupted us” I added somewhat disappointed.
“Whatever, it doesn’t matter” Gia rolled her eyes “You’re going to have him all to yourself tonight, Now let&rsquo
Sophie’s PovMy whole body shook as tears began to gather in my eyes. I felt my legs went weak and I held the table for support.My gaze moved from Chres who had no clue what was going on to Chris who was as surprised as I was “Soph? What are you doing here?” For the first time in six years I heard his voice.I had always wanted to see Chris after our breakup, but never did I imagine we were going to meet like this.“Soph?” I heard Chres say as he turned to Chris “Do you two know each other?” He asked with a surprise gaze on me.I lifted my watered to meet Chris gaze, although I could no long see him clearly.&n
Chresanto’s PovIgnoring everyone else’s greeting I rushed into my office completely frustrated. I had stayed out all night at Sophie’s hoping she would come out to give an explanation as to what was happening.I remembered my conversation with Chris before I went over to Sophie’s place.“How do you two know each other?” I had asked him.“Maybe you should speak to Soph first” He told me while shrugging off his shoulders.“D*mn it Chris” I ran my hand through my hair frustratedly “Is She the Sophie?” I asked again as my mind suddenly began to recall how he spoke about his ex girlfrie
Chresanto’sA smile laced on my face as Elle approached me with two ice cream in her hand. Unlike what I had expected the camp fire festival was totally fun and took my mind off Sophie and Chris situation.She handed me one of the ice cream when she arrived at where I was and then laced her other hand with mine while she pulled me to the game section.“I didn’t know you could sing” I said to her while we walked slowly.Her gaze met mine with a proud look “I was awesome right?” She asked giggling a little.“You are amazing” I replied sincerely with another smile “How come your parents ne
Sophie’s PovOutside the sun shone perfectly, like it was quarried by God for not shining brightly the day before. The weather seemed clear unlike what the weather app had stated. “Ouch” I winced as my finger involuntarily hit the sharp edge of my dresser, I placed the affected finger in my mouth while I sucked on It lightly.My eyes stopped at the wall clock and I suddenly realized it was past ten “Shit” I cussed silently while I hurriedly tied my hair up in a messy bun, I readjusted my black trouser and my pink top after which I hurriedly wore a black flat while I put around my neck a white cross bag which I had earlier placed on my bed.
Six Years Later.Chresanto’s PovOutside, the sky was gloomy. Heavy clouds hover over it creating a tense atmosphere. It would rain soon.It rumbled softly outside, causing a small chill to run down my spine immediately I stepped out of the plane as I had just arrived New-York.I shrugged it off and made a way to find a taxi. The airport was parked with so many people, some who desired to leave, some who were seeing off a loved one and some with a signed board that showed clearly they came to receive someone.Mom and Dad claimed they were too busy to pick me up, and I didn’t want to disturb Chris since he has the company alread
Sophie’s Pov“Rinaaaaaaaaa” I yelled for what seemed like the fifth time, just as my eyes moved quickly to the wall clock which was hanged at the far top of the wall.I clutched both Rina’s lunch box and her school bag in my left hand while I tried to use my right hand to arrange my hair which already seemed out of place “If you do not come here this minute Rina, I swear I’ll come get you myself” I shouted even more angrily.I had a job interview to meet up with and Rina wasn’t making it any easy for me “Sorry mummy” Rina rushed in while giving her signature puppy face.I sighed while I ruched to the kitchen to ensure the gas was locked “Hope you didn’t forget something?” I asked
Sophie’s PovI spent the whole weekend shopping for new office wears and some flats as I had just one that Gia gifted me a few months back during my project defense.Now the weekend was over and I got even more excited about my new job. Both Rina and I just had breakfast, after clearing the table and promising to do the dishes later I rushed to the mirror to ensure my makeup was intact even though it seemed like I didn’t have any on and my dress was intact.“Rina, your backpack” I scolded Rina who seemed to have left her backpack either in the kitchen or her room.She made an ‘Ohhhhh’ sound while she rushed into the kitchen and then came back in a blink of an eye.&
Chresanto’s PovAs soon as I stepped into my office, my cell phone beeped causing me to pull my eyes away from the file on the desk.“Sir the new employees await you at the conference hall” Josh my secretary reminded me.I had just arrived from the CEO’s breakfast meeting, which was said to be a compulsory meeting for all CEOS. Josh stated it was a grand way of announcing that I was the new CEO of Lightwood Company.I had all weekends to study all about Lightwood Company and I was glad I already had working experience else it would have been hard taking over the company just like dad had stated.“Sir” Jo

Chresanto’s PovI walked past Sophie into my office, completely ignoring her greetings. It was my first time seeing her since our encounter last week. I had stopped her from coming over to my home and I haven’t been able to come over to work because I still had few stuffs to put in place.In order to change the narrative circulating in the media, Bella and I had to go on several dates all through the weekend, which totally wore me out.I closed the door behind me while I walked to the sofa chair located at the end of my office and I laid on it. I hadn’t slept a wink since last night, since I had to attend to all of my emails and also had a late night interview.“Sir” I heard Jos
Sophie’s PovI paced up and down Chresanto’s living room, as he had requested to see me. I haven’t been able to properly apologize to him since last night as he had refused to even see me until now.It was past two in the afternoon and he had called for me about four hours ago. Because for what happened last night I wouldn’t dare enter into his bedroom.“Miss, are you still here?” Mrs Lukas who I met earlier this morning when I came in asked with a pity smile on her face.“He will be out in a few minutes” I reassured myself more than I said to her.She smiled while she wrapped her hand around
Sophie’s Pov“Stop running around Rina” I shouted from the kitchen for the fifth time. She stopped to give me her usual puppy look and almost immediately she dashed over to Chresanto.Rina came down with a little fever at the early hours of the morning, I couldn’t risk taking her to school as I was afraid it might get worse. So I had to take her over to Chresanto’s place since he agreed to it and due to the rumors I would be working with him at home for the time being.I took two cups of coffee in my hand and walked towards Chresanto who was in the sitting room. Thankfully his health got better overnight. His focus was now on Rina as he tickled her a little causing her to release a long laugh.
Chresanto’s PovI winced as the cotton wool which I had applied methylated spirit to reach my bruised face “Damn Tacha, Damn Bella” I cursed while dropped the cotton wool frustratedly.Immediately Mrs Lukas finished cooking I had ordered her to go home, so she wouldn’t be stucked here when the press arrives.The door opened revealing Hank who seemed to have been running as he was breathing heavily “Sir” He stopped to catch his breath “The press are outside sir” He told me.I sighed “Keep them outside the gate” I told him while he nodded and rushed out immediately.I walked lazily
Chresanto’s PovI arrived at my home and dropped into my bed exhausted, thankfully it was on a Sunday so I didn’t have to return to work.After the game played for some reason Sophie avoided me through out our stay in Australia, she had moved out of my room before I got there that night. I couldn’t help but wonder what exactly I had done to make her distance herself from me.I had to end it all with Tacha, as I warned her never to contact me again and if she wished to meet up for business purpose then she should speak to Josh.I rolled to the other side of my bed and yawned lightly. Giving in to the desire of my heavy eyes, slowly I drifted off into a deep sleep.
