2024-10-29 19:42:56“Hello beautiful” his husky voice greeted at the other end of the phone, causing a deep blush to spread all over her cheeks.
That was the kind of effect he had on her.
“Hello to you too, hunk” she replied after regaining her composure, earning a deep chuckle from him.
“Let me guess… Henry isn’t with you.”
“Nah. He’s busy, so he sent a chauffeur.”
“That’s new. I’m sure he’s worried sick right now.”
“A little.” she said with a smile.
“Can’t blame him though. You’re his everything.”
“And you? What am I to you?”
“You mean the world to me.”
She knew that already, but still wanted to hear him say it, as it gave her the assurance and confidence she needed.
“How was your flight?” He asked, changing the subject.
“It was fine, although I was lonely.” she explained with a pout.
“I miss you so much. I can’t wait to be with you.” she continued.
“I was with you for a whole week just.. was it three weeks ago? When you lied about being sick.” he reminded her, chuckling at the end of his sentence as he recalled the events that took place three weeks ago.
“Not fair. I was actually stressed from preparing for my exams, so I needed my stress reliever, if that’s even a word. You can’t blame me.”
“That’s why I had to rush out of a board meeting without an explanation, hire a plane in less than an hour and fly down to Chicago, just to be with you.”
It was now her turn to chuckle, as she couldn’t help but recall how worried he looked when he arrived at their meeting point. It was a house he bought for her for her twenty first birthday.
“Aww, but you promised I could see you anytime I want. You’re only one call away, remember?”
“Yeah, actually I do, and I love you for taking advantage of it in the slightest way possible.”
“I love you more.” she cooed.
“What time are you coming over?” He then asked.
“Someone’s excited to see me!” she joked.
“You can’t blame me. You have that much effect on me.”
She couldn’t help but let out a squeal from his confession. Moments like this when he admits his feelings were priceless to her.
“Dad is going to make up for not picking me up by taking me out to dinner. So, I’ll be at your place by nine.”
“I’ll be expecting you.”
“We just arrived and… Oh my God! Dad is waiting for me with a brand new Ferrari. I knew he was up to something.”
“Typical of him.”
“I’m sorry I have to hang up. I can’t wait to be in your arms. I love you.”
“I love you more. Have fun.”

“I can’t believe we’re finally done with high school.” Mandy, Amy’s best friend said as they walked out of their school building.“Yeah. I was beginning to feel trapped.” Amy replied, shivering at the thought of being trapped.“It was taking forever, but we finally made it… Think of all the hot guys we’ll get to meet in college.”Amy rolled her eyes at her best friend’s comment.“Really, Mandy? Is that all you can think about?... I thought you and Jack are still a thing.”“Do you seriously think what I and Jack have would outlast our years in college?... Geez Amy, you give us too much credit than we deserve.”“Well, I thought you two were… You know what? Forget it. What college did you apply for?” Amy decided to change the subject so as not to upset her best friend.“University of Pennsylvania. You?”“I’m not going this year.”“What?! You were so anxious to finish high school and get into college.” Mandy exclaimed in shock.“I changed my mind.” Amy plainly replied.“There’s no way you

Amy was in her bedroom listening to music while surfing the internet for college options when she heard a knock on the door.“Come in!” she said, turning down the volume of the music.The door to her bedroom opened and in came one of the maids.“Yes Christy. How may I help you?” Amy asked with a glare, indicating that she was rudely interrupted.“Sorry for disturbing you Miss, but your dad asked me to come get you. Dinner is ready.”“I’ll be down in a minute.” she replied, rushing into her closet to get something decent to wear as she was just in a lingerie.She grabbed a white long sleeve off shoulder crop top and ripped denim pants and quickly got dressed.“Hey Dad” Amy greeted her dad who was already seated at the head of the dinning table with a kiss on the cheek before making herself comfortable at his right side, drooling at the meal before her.“Don’t be rude honey and say hi to our guest.”Amy could tell her dad was trying to hold back a laugh. Only when she tore her eyes away

“Dad, about that… I’m not going to college this year.” Amy quietly said, stealing a glance at her dad and Bryan, who both had shocked and confused expressions on their faces.“What?!... I don’t get it. What do you mean by ‘I’m not going to college this year?’…”Henry was trying his best to remain calm, but there was a distinct edge to his voice, Bryan could tell.“Amy, I’m waiting.” He pressed, slowly losing his patience.“Dad, I don’t think I’m ready for college.”“What do you mean, you’re not ready… For Christ sake Amy, you’ll be nineteen in less than a year.”“I know that dad, but I’m still not ready.” She retorted.“No one’s ever ready for anything… My God! Amy, what has come over you?! I thought we had this planned out.”“No dad, you had this planned out.”“Excuse me?”‘This is beginning to get heated.’ Bryan thought to himself as dinner was long forgotten.“Dad, you’ve had everything planned out for me and not once have I gone against you.”“So, why are we having this discussion

You could’ve asked one of your dad’s chauffeur to drive you here.” Paula finally said, giving her daughter a warm hug.“Mom. I’m not a kid anymore.” Amy replied with an eye roll.“I know that honey, but look at the time. It could’ve been dangerous out there.” her mom tried to make her understand.“It’s just 9:00pm, mom.” Amy countered.“That doesn’t mean a

“Paula, how is Amy?” Was the first thing Henry said the moment he picked her call.He was worried about Amy’s well being as she wasn’t answering her phone.“Well, good morning to you too, Henry.” Paula replied, rolling her eyes.“Where is Amy? Is she there with you? I need to talk to her.”“You don’t wanna do that.” She countered.“If I didn’t, I won’t be telling you.” He retorted, as he wasn’t in the mood for Paula’s mind games.“Fine. If you want to talk to your daughter, give her a call then.”“She isn’t answering any of my calls.”“Look Henry, I called you so we could talk.”“About what?”“Our daughter, obviously.” Paula couldn’t believe Henry would ask such an absurd question.“The last time I saw Amy cry was when she was five years old. And that was because she scraped her knee while playing in the park… Henry, last night I witnessed my baby sob because of you. Never in a million years would I have believed that such a day would come.”“Paula, I really need to speak to her. To t

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.

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.
