Forbidden Love 74
Amy was beyond angry. Why in the world would she wake up to find herself alone in the hotel room like she was some call girl? What was Bryan even thinking when he left her alone without any explanation? He didn’t think it proper to at least wake her up and tell her why he had to leave. She had waited for his call or text all through the weekend, but got nothing. This is insulting.Was he angry that she wanted to get herself involved in his business? But he was okay with it, so why the sudden change? She wondered, still staring at her phone.Mandy stirred beside Amy, before grudgingly opening her eyes.“Morning, girlfriend.” she mumbled, stretching herself awake.Amy spent the entire weekend at Mandy’s place because she knew she would encounter Bryan at her dad’s place. With how livid she was at the time, she didn’t think she would’ve been able to control herself.“Good morning, sleepy head." Amy replied with no enthusiasm.“Nothing yet?” Mandy asked, sitting up on the bed.Too sad t

Amy changed into a white short Ivory lace off shoulder bodycon dress.She put on a light makeup, and brushed her hair before heading downstairs. As soon as she approached the foot of the stairs, she heard her dad exchanging pleasantries with, Sean?What is Sean doing here?She walked towards the living room where the voices were coming from. As if her presence was sensed, they both turned to look at her.“Hey” she shyly greeted Sean with a wave.Rather than reply Amy’s greeting, Sean kept gaping at her, making her aware of her looks. Henry poked Sean’s side, so he would close his mouth.“I, uh. Hi” Sean said when he regained his composure.“Um, uh. How have you been?”“Great” Amy smiled, tucking her hair behind her ear to hide her nervousness.Sean’s stare was making her feel awkward, and why is he stuttering? It’s not like this is the first time he’s seeing her.Henry was staring from Amy to Sean, and back, mentally shaking his head at the clueless young adults. The door bell sudde

Henry’s announcement left Amy dumbfounded.What does her dad mean by engagement?What is all this about?When did he come up with such an absurd idea?This is seriously not happening.Amy was wrapped up in her own thoughts that she didn’t notice her mom and dad leaving the dinning room. She glanced at Sean and noticed he was wearing a surprised yet happy expression.Is he being serious right now?Is he actually happy about the both of them getting married?She finally found the courage to look at Bryan, who was already staring at her. For a moment, she thought she saw guilt in his eyes, but she was wrong. He showed no emotion whatsoever, causing her to feel extremely hurt and betrayed. She still couldn’t believe that Bryan didn’t object to the engagement.After almost three years of dating, he is okay with her getting married to his son?Does she really have no place in his heart?At that realization, Amy pushed back her chair and stood up. She stared at Bryan long and hard, trying he

It was 11:00pm. Amy was exhausted from crying, but at the same time she couldn’t stop crying. The tears kept flowing freely down her face.How did her life get to this?Why can’t her relationship be like everyone else?Why is her life so complicated?All these thoughts kept depressing her even more. She can’t imagine herself getting married to a guy she barely knows. She needs to talk to her dad.With that conclusion, Amy wiped her tears and stood up from the floor, where she was previously seated and headed for her dad’s bedroom. On getting there, she knocked on the door twice but got no response, so she opened the door and walked into the room. When she got inside, she realized that her dad wasn’t in the room.‘Where could he be?’ she wondered as she left the room.She looked for him in his study, but he wasn’t there either. She then headed for the living room as she couldn’t think of anywhere else, since it was already late.As she got to the living room, she noticed a bottle of vo

“Was this the reason why you abandoned me at the hotel?” Amy asked the moment the call went through, but Bryan said nothing which answered her question.She closed her eyes as she was overcome with emotion.“Why did you keep it from me? Why the hell did you do it?!” She screamed into the phone, bursting in tears.“Amy, I’m sorry.” Bryan eventually said from the other end.There was sadness in his voice, but she could care less how he was feeling right now. He claims to be in love with her, yet he couldn’t fight for their love. He just agreed to his best friend’s decision like she meant nothing to him.Thinking about it, does she really mean anything to him? Amy thought to herself.Does he even love her at least a bit, or has she been fooling herself this entire time?“Why didn’t you fight for me? Why didn’t you fight for us?” She angrily asked, as she came to the realization that Bryan may not actually love her like he claims.“Henry’s mind was already made up. Whatever I would’ve s

Several days after the dinner incident, when Amy was less agitated, she gave Sean a call and apologized for her behavior towards him the other day. She explained to him that she was really upset and had thought he had a hand in the engagement, that was why she lashed out at him. She asked if they could put that night’s incident behind them and continue being friends.Sean agreed to it immediately. He felt relieved knowing that Amy still wanted to talk to him after that night, even though he was sad about the part where she said they could continue being just friends. He was willing to wait and go as slow as she wanted, hoping that maybe one day Amy would give him a chance.“Oh no. I’m not going in there.” Amy said while shaking her head dismissively.“C’mon. It’s not that bad. It’s actually fun.” Sean replied. His eyes were bright and excited.“For you, not me.” she countered, not buying the idea at all. Her last experience was one she’d never forget.Sean and Amy are currently seated

It was pretty late at night, probably almost midnight. Bryan was still in his office, trying to distract his thoughts from the last conversation he had with Henry over a week ago by overworking himself. Ever since his best friend told him about the promise he made to his late wife, he has been distraught. He barely ate, he couldn’t sleep, he hardly concentrated during working hours, it was like his entire being was having a meltdown.So, in order not to seem weak and vulnerable in front of his employees, he feigns anger during the day and buries himself in work at night when he finds it hard to get some sleep. That is why he is currently the only one in his company building, besides the security officers.A furious knock on his office door tore his attention away from his laptop. Apart from his son, his chauffeur and the company security officers, no one else knows that he’s in his office.So, who is this uninvited guest?And why show up at this hour? Bryan thought to himself as he st
Forbidden Love 81
After their love making session, they didn’t bother getting dressed as they both lay on the bed, enjoying each other’s company.Amy was listening to Bryan’s heartbeat while tracing imaginary patterns on his chest. Every urge she felt earlier had vanished because Bryan satisfied her every desire.“Bryan?” She quietly called, breaking the comfortable silence.“Mhmm”“I think dad is dead serious about the engagement. He isn’t changing his mind no matter how hard I try… What are you going to do about it, because I don’t want to be forced to go through with the wedding.” she placed her chin on Bryan’s chest, gazing at his handsome face.Bryan, who was enjoying the comfortable silence because it helped take his mind off things was suddenly brought back to reality by Amy’s question. He took a deep breath and replied,“I don’t know.” before carefully removing her weight from his body, so he could sit up.“You don’t know? Is that what you’re saying?” Amy asked in disbelief.He could hear the i
