ANTHON'S POV
"Anthon, Hijo," My grandmother called me, she fix her eyeglass in her eyes as she looks at me seriously. She then turns her attention to Lily and smiled as she looks at her from head to toe, Lily smile at her and bows her head a little probably uncomfortable with my grandmother's stare.
"Who picks you up, grandma?" I asked her while I walk near her and kiss her forehead, she waves her hand and sigh. "Well, I called your butler he picked me up and he said you're here so I came here," she explained, her usual graceful actions make me admire her, despite being old she still manages to intimidate the people around her with just one look.
I nodded my head and look at her, and then at Lily, I pulled her closer to me and introduce her to my grandmother. "Grandma, this is Lily, my fiance," I said and smiled, my grandmother raise her eyebrow at me and looks at her

The class started today and I am feeling a little awkward. The first day was all about meetings and the introduction of self and stuff. I sigh as I sat at the open ground opening the email on my laptop, I just finished attending the whole subject and I was having a great time alone when suddenly some unexpected event happened."Shit!" I muttered when the ball hit my head, I glare at the surroundings as I look at who is the one responsible for the incident. I heard someone laughing not so far from my direction and I saw who is the jerk responsible for the hitting of the ball in my head."I'm sorry! Miss!" the boy said as he jog in my direction getting the ball in the ground as he stare at me. I glare at him and hissed, I then fix my things getting away from them. "Are you okay?" he asked as he was beside me standing while I fix my things, putting my stuff back in my bag. I just nodded my head not answering hi

The class started and it's the same routine every day in school, and every weekend we would always go to Anthon's Hacienda and have fun. Today is Friday and I am still in school, walking towards my last class for today and I saw him again, the varsity of St. Clair University and son of the school's principal. I heavily sighed trying to avoiding him again this time. I don't need another drama."What is it, Mr. Williams?" I asked him formally, with his usual get-up carrying a ball-tossing it in the air while smiling and grinning like some bad boy roaming around getting ladies attention every time he's around. I almost roll my eyes when he walks beside me bothering me like some boy whose ego is wounded that he didn't get my attention."Nothing, I just like pissing you off," he answered, grinning like an idiot, I stop on my feet facing him annoyed by his presence. "Right, it's your damn hobby, cong

I sigh as I sip on the coffee that I ordered and sat on the corner, I opened the laptop that I put on the table earlier and listened on the headset with kinds of music on my playlist that my sister Kris listens to. I then leaned on my seat and smile as I opened my social and saw the pictures of my two sisters in their class.They sure do enjoy being back again at school. I decided to look at the report and some of the things I need to study for tomorrow's training. It's been three months since I go to restaurants with my father and I am learning a lot.I browse the menu that one of the Manager sent me, I studied it well and look at the menu.

You've got to be kidding me. I groaned mentally when I saw them in the sala, I saw Kris looks at me worriedly as we walk inside Anthon's mansion. I saw how Anthon's eyes widen when he saw me entered the sala, I look at him seriously without uttering a single word.I smiled at his grandmother and she guided me towards the kitchen, giving a death glare at Anthon and then to Karen's innocent facade, I want to scoff and spit on their faces but not wanting to be rude and would just probably give them the satisfaction that I am affected. I heard his friends whistle and I turn to look at them, I saw Blaze wave his hand at me and I did the same."Hija, come, come," His grandmother said and guided me towards the table. I look at my sisters and nodded at them, they followed me and the old lady inside, his grandmother then pulls Melanie by her side smiling and asking my sister what she wants for dinner.&n

"Lily," I heard Anthon's voice, I stop on walking as I wait for his words not turning to see him. "What, Anthon?" I said coldly, I heard him sigh frustratingly. I continued walking leaving him alone there. I sigh as a lone tear escaped my eyes, I gasp for air as I tried to shake off the frustrating feeling.I walk towards the entertainment room, this brings back the times where we would always just stare at each other when we crossed paths. I opened the door and saw them sitting on the couch with Nana, watching cartoon movies. I sat beside them ignoring the fact that he didn't bother explaining his side, but what he should say when he lied in the first place? and I didn't tell him I saw them there and he lied when I asked him.I close my eyes to calm myself. I decided to watch it with them. I heard my phone beeped and I saw his name on the screen. I opened my phone and saw his message, reading it over

I sighed and close my eyes, turning off my phone. I need to take some rest tomorrow will be a big day. Finally drifting to sleep."Lily, Hija," I turn to look at my father's voice calling me, I saw him smiling at me. I walk near him as I saw him extending his hands making me sit beside him. I look around and saw a lot of flowers and butterflies. I look at him in the eyes as my eyes began to tear."Father, I'm sorry," I whispered, hugging him. He felt so real, I grip him tightly as I close my eyes. I heard him laugh and then pat my back, calming me. "Shh," he whispered. I gasp for air as I let go of him and then look at his face closely. I saw a faint smile on his lips but there's sadness in his eyes."It's not your fault, and I know you are taking good care of your sisters," he said as his hand caress my cheeks carefully like he was afraid he might break me. I smiled at him looking at his face

"What do you need?" I asked him, as I look at him intently, hands crossed on my chest waiting for his words. He sighed and massage his temple. I suddenly remembered what he was into before he confessed his feelings and saying wanting this to work."I'm sorry about yesterday," he apologized, that's just it-- I was waiting for him to say that he lied, admitting to what he has done but it's impossible because he didn't know what I know. I chuckled and look at him directly in the eyes."What exactly are you apologizing, Anthon?" I asked him, he looks at me straight in the eyes as he was trying to walk closer to where I was standing but I took a step back making him stop from coming forward, I defensively wrap my arms around me, stroking my own shoulders."I- I'm sorry that I didn't tell you Karen was there," He said, he bowed his head down as he sighed heavily. I look aro

I arrived at the city of Aldamair. I carried my bag as I walk outside the train and was greeted by the clerks and staff who are waiting in the receiving area. I smiled back and continue walking, a good thing I only brought few things so the bag was not heavy to carry and I can roam around. I cling the strap to my shoulder and walk outside the train station.I called a cab and decided to have my lunch at one of the restaurants. I thought of this as a new way to discover other ways to make the business work and explore new possibilities and think and clear my mind.I sighed and smiled when I sat in the backseat of the cab, the driver smiled at me in the rearview mirror and ask me if where do I want to go. "Welcome to Aldamair, city of possibilities! where do you want to go to?" he joyfully said, I sighed heavily before answering."Maybe to a fine hotel and restaurant?"
