After dinner, Amy couldn’t get some sleep, no matter how hard she tried. She closed her eyes for several minutes, hoping it would help her fall asleep, but nothing worked. Why can’t I fall asleep? She wondered, tossing and turning on her bed. After some minutes, she gave up trying, and got out of bed, heading for her dad’s bedroom. He was the only person who could help her when she was having trouble falling asleep. She only hopes he’s still awake, but she doubts that, since it’s already pass midnight.

On reaching his bedroom door, she gave a gentle knock, not to be rude, incase he was still working.

“Come in.” Her dad said from inside.

She opened the door, and like she guessed, he was working, on his laptop.

“Why are you still awake, princess?” Her dad asked.

She could hear the concern in his voice.

“I can’t sleep.” She quietly replied.

“Come here, my love. Is something bothering you?”

He immediately closed his laptop, and placed it on his nightstand before gesturing for Amy to join

    Amy was browsing through her social media page when her phone began to ring. Her face lit up when she saw the caller ID, but she immediately composed herself before answering the call. “I’m mad at you.” She hastily said, not giving the caller the chance to speak. “I waited for a goodnight call last night or even a simple text, but I got nothing.” “Forgive me, beautiful. I had a lot on my plate yesterday.” Bryan quickly apologized. “And a simple goodnight was too much to say?” “I wasn’t trying to justify myself, princess. I know I acted badly and I take full responsibility for my actions. Please forgive me.” Amy was biting her fingers while smiling to herself. He was really falling for her act. If only he knew she wasn’t at all upset, rather she was feeling giddy inside just from hearing his husky voice. “Why didn’t you call? I couldn’t sleep last night.” She said with a pout, trying to sound sad. “I had a couple of meetings to attend to and after that, I had to go over some con

    It was a Saturday morning, Amy was having breakfast with her dad. She kept stealing glances at her dad, going over the story she made up in her head, hoping he won’t get suspicious.‘You can do this, Amy.’ She mentally said to herself, praying she doesn’t blow her cover.“Um. Dad?” She began, picking up a slice of bacon from her plate with her fork and feeding it to her dad.“Princess, you’ve barely touched your meal.”“I’m on a diet.” She lied, when in reality she was a bit hungry. She couldn’t touch her meal because she was nervous. She felt her dad would be able to read through her.“Since when are you on a diet?” Her dad asked with an amused look on his face.“Since this morning.”“Oh really!... And what’s the reason for this sudden decision?”“I, uh. I noticed I’ve become too lazy to move around and I don’t like it.”“I have a better option.”“What’s that?”“You can make use of the gym… Seriously, Amy. I’m sure you don’t even know what the place looks like.”Amy grimaced the mome

    Amy got into her room and immediately locked the door behind her. She hit her head against the door three times to express how angry she was at herself. She made a complete fool of herself back there and it was all thanks to her stupid hormones.When she heard Bryan’s voice, it was like everything inside her became cautious. She suddenly became aware of the fact that she hasn’t showered that morning and was just wearing her pajamas, not one of the best ones, if she might add. To top it all, she was stuffing herself with her breakfast.‘So embarrassing.’ She thought to herself, as she walked towards her bed. She slumped on her bed face flat and groaned into her pillow in frustration.How was she going to face Bryan tonight after such an awkward encounter this morning?Amy decided to distract her thoughts by giving her mom a call, as she hasn’t told her that she was coming over.

    “You look beautiful.” Paula said to her daughter with a proud smile, as they both stood in front of the mirror.“You think so, mom?” Amy nervously asked, checking herself properly in the mirror to see if she missed anything.“Look at me, sweetie.” Her mom held her in place.“He’s going to be at loss for words when he sees you… Whoever he is.”Amy laughed at her mom’s last statement, and it helped ease her nervousness a bit.“Thanks mom. I promise I’ll reveal his identity when I’m ready.”“I hope it won’t be when he breaks your heart.”“Mom!”“I was only joking.”Amy’s phone beeped, getting her attention.“I guess that’s prince charming.” Paula said with a knowing smile.
