Anastasia called Stavros and asked him if she could sign the divorce papers earlier than the decided time.
"Why?" Stavros asked the reason for it.
"I don't want to see his face," Anastasia replied. "We both agreed for this divorce, so there should not be any problem if I sign earlier," she opined.
"It is a legal procedure. Both parties will be seated in front of each other," Stavros answered. "Also, I would like to say something to you," he said.
"Hmm?"
"He likes you, Anastasia
ONE YEAR LATER: "Roman, how can you say that the designs are not ready? It has been a week," Stavros shouted at the man, who was on the other side of the phone. He then lowered his voice as he realized that he was in the office. "Stav, I had told you that I am on a week's holiday with my girlfriend," Roman said and spread his legs out on the sofa. "You had also told me that you would take out the time and send me the designs. Also, it's the second day of the second week. Do you expect me to believe your lies!?" Stavros was furious at him. "Calm down, Man! Tell Alex to wait one more week. We are friends. Chill! He will understand me," Roman said and picked the cola can. "Are yo
Alex signed on the file while reading it carefully. The phone on the table rang and he lifted his eyes to look at it.'ONE WHO SHOULD BE AVOIDED!"It flashed on the screen. He ignored the call and kept doing his work. When the phone did not stop buzzing, he answered it."Why did you not answer my call?" Rose asked from the other side."Unlike you, I am not free," Alex replied coldly."Can you not talk to me with a gentle tone?" She was dejected. "We will engage this week and still you act so cold towards me," she complained."Why do you think that I will get engaged to you? Also, two days ago our families decided on it," Rose told him."Well, I am not engaging with you. Don't waste your time on me, Rose. Also, for God's sake, do not call me," Alex said with annoyance."Do you still think about her?" Alex's facial expressions changed when Rose asked him that question. "She is dead. Will you move ahead out of that

As Alex took the seat on the padded sofa, he wished his mother, whose forehead frowned. "Happy Birthday, Dear Mother." This line was not less than a taunt for Penelope. She looked at her son, who was looking no less than a drunkard. His shirt was inside while the other half was outside his pants; his hair was disheveled and he was stinking badly. Stavros thought to handle the matter. "Sir, the CEO was busy in an important meeting with our Italian client. He ended up taking a few shots," Stavros lied to them. "Stav, don't tell a lie," Alex said with a smile and then looked into the eyes of his mother, "She doesn't care if I tell her truth or tell a lie. Did you enjoy the day with your friend group? What rare gifts did they give you?"
The bright sun rays hit the face of Alex and he quickly turned to left, burying his face in the pillow. A sharp pain ran in his forehead because of the excessive drinking from last night. "Wake up, Alex!" Stavros' voice fell in his ears. "Let me sleep more," he said and pulled the blanket up when Stavros drew it towards him. "It's 8 am. You will be late for the office," Stavros said and put the blanket away. He walked to him and pulled him up. Alex placed his hand on the right part of his head and then ran his fingers in his hair. "My head will explode," he murmured. "The cook will prepare the Hangover soup for you. Go and freshen up," Stavros said as he patted his back. Alex opened his eyes
The coffee shop's door opened. A woman in her late twenties, entered with a cardboard box in her hand. Her short, wavy hair had covered her side face. "I will do it, Ana!" Azkiel said, a young man in his late 20s took the cardboard box in his hand. "I can carry that much weight," Anastasia announced as she went towards the counter. Azkiel put the cardboard box on the table and shook his head. "In the presence of a gentleman, a lady shall not work," stated Azkiel. Anastasia passed a smile to him and checked the fresh pastries that they had prepared. She closed the refrigerator's door and then stood straight. "The crockeries look nice," Azkiel said as he put them on the table. "You have bought hundr
Anastasia arrived at her home holding a carry bag in her hand in which she had daily groceries. She removed her shoes and put them in the shoe rack. Walking in, she reached the small living room and sat on the sette. She placed the carry bag on the table and leaned herself back on the sette. It was one tiring day for her. So many customers had come to the bakery. A year ago, when she left everything behind, this was the only way left for her survival. She never entered the kitchen, but now she has become good at cooking. Indeed, life taught you everything with time. Her grandfather's company was taken over by Alexander Adamos. Sebastian died after a heart attack while his wife also died shortly after her husband's death. Anastasia never wanted it to end this way. Indeed, they did wrong to her and her father, but this was way too much. The Spanos F
In the morning, Anastasia dressed up in a black formal dress. She carried the black handbag and left to visit Hamish's graveyard which was in the countryside. However, she must stay careful because Alexander might visit that. She purchased a bouquet of white lilies from the flower shop and took a taxi. After four hours of journey, she reached the small countryside town from where Hamish belonged. She has asked the security if anyone visited Hamish earlier when he refused. "You are the first one today," he answered her. Anastasia took a breath of relief and decided to visit the grave at the earliest, then later leave the place. "Madam, there's still an hour left when the graveyard would actually open to the public," the guard told her. "I am in
Alex looked at Anastasia, who was not happy. "We have to go to a party tonight. Your brother, Nicholas is celebrating the happiness he got after becoming the CEO," Alex affirmed."I do not want to go," Ana replied as she wiped off her tears. "He will taunt me and my father," she added."In the presence of your husband, no one can make you feel low. You cannot let him think that you have fallen weaker. Show him that his mere achievement does not bother you much," proclaimed Alex. Anastasia peered at him for a long time."Don't encourage me so much," Ana mumbled when Alex drew her towards him by grasping her arm. "This is the only thing you can have to stay stronger in front of your rival. It's only the beginning, Ana. Nicholas might be happy today but no one knows about tomorrow," Alex proclaimed."Hmm. I trust your words," Ana asserted. Alex told her to wash her face and then come downstairs to have lunch.
Five years later:Time passes soon but some memories are still with you- good and bad both. Same thing happened with me. I have finally achieved my dream of being a news anchor of 9 pm show. My parents, my brother and my friends are proud of me. They daily watch my show which gives me immense pleasure.Whenever I watch at this main desk my heart pounds. The dream is still alive in me but there is one thing which I still miss. He promised me that will stay with me till the eternity but he left me in the middle.With each passing second, my love for him gets stronger. My father sent me on many blind dates but none grabbed my interest the way he grabbed.Eyes are the most beautiful part of a human body. It tells you everything. Same thing happened with me when he saved me and looked with those green pair of eyes at me. My world stopped at that distance, the time stopped and my heart beat too.My only first and only love ended u
