Forbidden Love 15
It was 1:30am, Bryan was trying to get some sleep after studying some files he’ll be needing for a board meeting when his phone started to ring. He wondered who could be calling him at this hour as he reached for his phone on the nightstand, it was Amy. He wasted no second in answering the call.“Bryan?.. please come pick me up.” Amy’s voice said as soon as he picked the call. She sounded shocked and totally disoriented and it sounded like she was in tears.“Amy, are you okay? Is something wrong?” Bryan asked, standing up from his bed.“Please, come get me out of here.” Amy replied. Her voice sounded shaky on the phone, causing Bryan to worry.She was supposed to be at home and the last time he spoke to Henry, which was some hours ago, he told him Amy was fine and that she had invited her best friend over, so she wasn’t alone in the house.‘So where is she talking about?’ He wondered.“Amy, breathe…” He said in a soothing voice.“Are you at home?” He asked just to make sure.It was

The ride back to Bryan’s place was quiet. Amy kept stealing glances at Bryan, she could tell from the frown on his face and how hard he was holding the steering wheel, that he was angry, probably at her but was holding back. It made her feel so small beside him. If he was reacting this way, she wonders what her dad would do when he finds out about what happened to her. She doesn’t want him finding out about today’s incident.Amy didn’t realize that they had already arrived Bryan’s mansion, until she felt a gentle pat on her knee, causing her to flinch away in fear.“I didn’t mean to scare you. I just wanted to let you know that we’re home.” Bryan said softly.Amy looked at her surrounding and realized that they were indeed at Bryan’s place. She covered herself properly with Bryan’s jacket and slowly climbed out of the car.

‘The time is 7:00am. The time is 7:00am.’ His alarm kept repeating.Bryan grudgingly turned off the alarm and rubbed his eyes. He was about to drag himself out of bed, when he felt a weight on his left arm. He turned to look at the source of weight and saw Amy holding onto his arm like her life depended on it while sound asleep.Images of what happened earlier that morning flashed through his mind. Amy had knocked on his bedroom door at about 3:35am when he was trying to get some sleep because she also couldn’t sleep. He hated to see her cry as that was the only thing she did earlier while he soothed her until she eventually fell asleep.He was only able to get an hour’s sleep before his alarm went off. He gently untangled her hands from his left arm and carefully placed her properly on the bed without waking her, before making his way to the bathroom to quickly freshen up. Amy’s eyelids slowly fluttered open to an unfamiliar, yet familiar bedroom. She rolled over on her stomach an

Bryan’s ringtone interrupted Amy’s thoughts, causing her to suddenly become aware of the happenings in her surrounding.“It’s Henry.” Bryan informed her and was about answering the call, but Amy held his hand to stop him.She shook her head and whispered the words,“Don’t tell him.” Surprising Bryan.He furrowed his eyebrows in confusion, not understanding why she wants him to keep this from her dad. But he said nothing, rather, he decided not to keep his best friend waiting by answering the phone call. He gave Amy a glance and put the call on speaker.“Hello? Bryan are you busy? I can call later.” Henry’s smooth voice said from the other end.“It’s okay, Henry. I have all the time in the world.” Bryan replied.“If you say so. Sorry about earlier, I had to attend an emergency meeting… Why did you call so early? Is something wrong?”And here comes the part Bryan wasn’t looking forward to. He doesn’t want to lie to his best friend, especially when it has to do with his daughter. But rig

“So, when do you plan on telling Henry about last night’s incident?” Bryan finally asked, getting Amy’s attention.Amy had a shocked, sad and confused look. She thought they were over this subject. Why is he still bringing it up? She wondered.She stared at Bryan, who was staring back at her, patiently waiting for her reply. Knowing the kind of person Bryan is, he isn’t going to give up until she gives him an answer.“I don’t intend to tell him.” She quietly replied, deciding to just tell Bryan the truth.“Are you being serious?!” Bryan exclaimed with a confused expression.“I decided not to say anything to Henry because I felt this wasn’t an issue to be discussed over the phone…” He continued.“You don’t seriously plan on keeping your father in the dark about such a grave issue?”“I can, and I will.” Amy stated, making Bryan even more confused and regretful.He shouldn’t have listened to her, he should’ve told Henry everything straightaway.“What is wrong with you, Amy?!”Bryan could

Amy spent the rest of the week at Bryan’s house, as planned. As promised, Bryan didn’t go to the office. He stayed at home to keep Amy company, only working in his study for two hours, when she takes her nap. After their conversation the other day, Bryan did all he could to make Amy feel more comfortable, even though he was hurting inside with the fact that she wanted to let the scoundrel who hurt her get away with it. He decided not to show it, and never mention of it, for the sake of Amy.She had suggested that she wanted to see some of the things he liked besides work, so he bought them VIP tickets to go watch the NFL games. Just to make her happy. He hired a private jet that flew them to New York, for the New York Fashion Week, and just like he guessed, Amy was very excited. This made him a bit relaxed.Henry will be back tomorrow, which is a Sunday, and he was a bit nervous because, although Amy seemed like she was recovering fast, he wasn’t entirely sure she was being honest. He

Amy and Mandy were currently in Amy’s bedroom, they were chatting about anything and everything they both did over the last couple of days. Mandy shared the wonderful experience she had with Jack during the course of his parents absence. How he behaves like a perfect gentleman and not like a teenager, which actually surprised her, given the fact that Jack was more of a outgoing person.“I’m guessing you guys are in it for the long run?" Amy asked with a smirk.“I guess so.” Mandy replied with a shy smile, covering her blush with her hands.“You don’t have to be shy with me.” Amy said, removing Mandy’s hands from her cheeks and winked at her, embarrassing her best friend even more.“Enough about me. What about you?” Mandy then asked, changing the subject as she was certain Amy was going to tease her to death.It was now Amy’s turn to tell Mandy about her trip to New York for the New York Fashion Week and her very first experience at the NFL games. This got Mandy dramatically gasping.“

Henry got back from his business trip, and as decided, Amy didn’t tell him about the rape incident. She tried not to think about that night, to help her erase the memory forever, but it wasn’t that easy, as simple words or sentences would take her back to that ugly night.The nightmares, although not as tormenting as before still made it difficult for her to fall asleep at night, but thanks to the very thoughtful and caring Bryan, she rarely had those nightmares because he made sure to call her everyday after dinner to talk about so many things, like how his day went, some future deals he plans to make, to ask how she spent her day, to know what college she has decided to go to, stuffs like that, just to get her mind off that night. It really helped her, as she only thought of pleasant things before going to bed.Mandy was also very helpful as she made it a habit to visit Amy whenever she could, to spend much quality time with her best friend, to help her get through this phase and al

She enjoyed her time with him, as he helped her forget about her problems throughout her stay there. But, now she was back to reality and she hated it.Amy’s phone started to ring on the bed where she had placed it, while she stood before her mirror, wrapping her hair in a ponytail. A smile crept up her face as soon as she saw the caller ID.“Hey, Mandy” she greeted her best friend, who was already done with college.“Happy birthday!” Mandy cheered from the other end.Although it was her birthday, Amy wasn’t one bit excited by it. This was by far the worst birthday of her life, and she’d never forget it.“I’d rather not be reminded of that.” she confessed with a frown, sitting on her bed, and picking up her phone which was pr

A knock on Henry’s study door tore his attention away from his laptop. Ever since Amy’s suicide incident, Henry has been working from home. He couldn’t risk anything happening to his daughter again.“Come in.” he said with a stern voice.In came one of the newly employed bodyguards.“Sorry to disturb you, sir, but I’m here to give you a report.” The blonde buff bodyguard said.“And what is that?” Henry asked.“There’s a man outside who insists on seeing you.”Henry didn’t need to ask who it was. He slammed his laptop shut and took long strides out of his study.Amy was staring out her bedroom window, like she was expecting someone. She has been doing that for the past two weeks, hoping to see the man she loves drive through that gate. As if her prayers were heard, she noticed Bryan’s black Lamborghini driving into the compound. She began smiling to herself, as tears of joy blurred her vision. She wiped her eyes and ran out of the bedroom.“What the hell are you doing here?! I thought

“Where did I go wrong as your father? What did I ever do to deserve such betrayal?!”“This isn’t about you, dad. This is entirely about me. I love Bryan!”“I don’t want to hear you utter those words again!”Henry and his daughter, Amy were having a shouting match in their living room, after returning from Bryan’s place.“I can’t help it, dad. Bryan is the only man I want to be with!”Henry raised his hand to strike his daughter in a fit of anger, but stopped himself midway. It took ever fiber in him to stop himself from actually hitting his daughter.Amy, who flinched away in fear thinking that her dad was going to hit her regained her composure when she realized that he couldn’t do it.“Why don’t you do it, huh? You didn’t think twice before hitting your best friend.”“Amy!”Henry loves his daughter so much and would never do anything to hurt her, but at the moment she was pushing him too far and he didn’t like it one bit, because knowing the kind of person he was, he could do someth

He was jogging down the stairs with Amy following closely behind.The best friends stared at their children with clear confusion written all over their face.Why is Sean so angry and why is Amy chasing after him?“How could you do this to me, your own son?!” Sean yelled in anger, pointing at his father.“What are you talking about?” Bryan asked in confusion, standing up from his seat.“Sean, I beg you, please don’t say anything.” Amy pleaded once again.“Amy, what is this about?” It was now Henry’s turn to ask his daughter what was going on, because the sudden change of emotions in the atmosphere was deeply alarming.“You are supposed to be my father. You are supposed to have my back, to support me. But what do you do? You betray me and everyone around you!”“Okay, okay. Sean, will you please calm down and tell me where all of this is coming from?”Henry placed his hand on Sean’s chest to stop him from taking an

She was excited when her mom told her that Kyle was in town, but deep down she was scared that he wouldn’t want to be anywhere near her.“I thought you were still mad at me.” Amy mumbled against his chest, enjoying his familiar scent.“I was never angry at you, Amy… I was rather angry at myself for not saying anything sooner.” he honestly replied.“I’m sorry for hurting your feelings.
