"That's okay, I hope you can make it this year though." Aunt Lydia threw some tomatoes, olives and salsa in the pan and poured the pineapple juice before putting the lid on it. "Mommy." I felt someone tugging on the bottom of my shirt. I looked down and saw my little rayo de sol. "Yes, mi amor." I cooed as I picked him up. I put him on the kitchen counter and watched what he was taking out of his pocket. It was his school report. I opened it and a smile crept on my face. "These are really good grades amor." "Yes mommy, can we go get ice cream after dinner?" he asked sweetly. Oh god, it's so hard to say no to his sweet voice. I laughed softly and kissed him on his nose. "Well, it's too late to get ice cream now. What about tomorrow?" He nodded eagerly. "Yes, muchas gracias." I was so happy he was learning spanish. Milan was enrolled in a private school where they teach in english. It was quite expensive, but I want to give him the best of the best, because he deserves it. At ho
I blushed. "You did Vasilios." He chuckled lightly. "So, about Milan huh." I gulped, here we go. "Uhm yeah about that. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about him earlier." "Him?" "Yeah, Milan right. My son." I clarified, air quoting son. "What?" Flynn asked confused. "That's what you want to know right. About Milan." "Yes, as in Milan the city." This time I was the one that look confused at him. "What? No, as in Milan the little boy who calls me mom." "His name is Milan?" he asked astonished. "I thought you had figured that out." "No, I thought you were talking about the city Milan." I shook my head, what the hell? "No, I was talking about my son, why would I talk about a city that you can easily google ?" "Shit! Why did you named him after a city? I thought you were talking about the one ni...Never mind. Why did you air quote son earlier?" he asked while shaking his head. I sighed deeply. "Because he's not my biological son." "What do you mean?" Flynn looked at me like a
I shrugged indifferently. "I was only two weeks old, I can't remember them. But the way how aunt Lydia tells me stories about them, I do miss them... sometimes." .......... Flynn VasiliosJill is full of surprises. I can't believe she adopted Milan to save him from the orphanage life. Then again, that's what makes her apart from all the other girls. She's unique, generous, loving. Everything that I always imagined my future wife to be. I thought that she wanted to talk to me about Milan, the city. About the one night stand. I was wrong. She didn't remember it. She didn't remember me. Now I was wondering if it was because of the accident? The accident happened after the one night stand. After I left her, without a note. I was so dumb, because I was well aware that I didn't fuck her, but I made love to her. I thought it was just a ordinary one night stand. One that I would forget after a couple of days. Little did I know she would haunt my dreams from that day on. I couldn't
He does have a point. If he wasn't here I probably wouldn't be able to walk for two weeks."Thanks, but I think it's safe to let me go now." He slowly let me go and now I turned around to get a better look at him. He was still in his suit, I guess he came straight to the party after the meeting. "You came early." "Yeah, the meeting ended early so I decided to show up early to see if you need help." "That's uhm... really considerate of you." I noticed. He nodded. "Yup good thing too, because otherwise you wouldn't be able to walk for two weeks." "Mommy!" I heard behind Flynn. I look over his shoulder and saw Milan in a spiderman costume. "Who bought that for you?" I asked, because I know that he didn't had a spiderman costume. "Flynn did." he grinned as he ran around the backyard. I looked at Flynn in surprise. "How did you know he liked spiderman?" I asked wonderingly. "I just happen to saw spiderman toys on the floor when I dropped you off." Wow, he was really observant.
"You were with her in a goddamn plane, the only reason you didn't bring your PA was because of her and still you didn't had the balls to confess?!" he exclaimed, putting his glass roughly down on the table. "Can you be more careful with my glassware? Those are my mom's." "Don't change the subject. You know that I can't see you like this anymore." His eyes held anger as he was looking at me. "It's time you fucking grow a pair of balls and confess to her. You're hurting yourself by keeping this a secret. Fuck!" "I did confess okay, she was...asleep." I muttered.I hated to be like this. Vulnerable. I was a goddamn business man. Business deals, contracts, name it and I could arrange it. No hesitation. No second thoughts. And then there's her. Everything I do, everything I say around her I have to make sure It will not hurt her feelings. That she will not run away from me. I never cared about anyone's feelings, that's why I got the title womanizer right?But I cared about her feelin
"Do you need my help in something?" I put my file down and sat back on my chair opening my laptop. "Tell me."I looked up at him and his piercing blue eyes were staring straight into my soul, making me uncomfortable."Yeah actually, what do you have planned tomorrow evening?"he asked. "Uhm nothing. Is there a meeting I need to attend tomorrow, because I'm not going. Just send Claire." I was tired, tomorrow is Friday and I was looking forward to spend a night alone watching netflix.He laughed. "Not a meeting, but a date." "Date?" I asked confused. Is that what he came here for? "Yeah, If you want to go on a date with me." he clarified.I stayed silent for awhile as my eyes widened at what he just asked I was shocked. Confused. Tired. Is he alright?"Can I send Claire?" I croaked out still in shock. Once those words left my mouth I immediately regretted it. What kind of dumb answer was that?My mind was probably playing games with me. I didn't had my daily dose of Caffeine an
On my turn I asked her about Milan and Aunt Lydia. They were the only family she had. I can't believe people can be so cruel to abandon their own blood. I would be disgusted by myself if I would ever do that.After we ate our s'mores Jill leaned on me and placed her head on my shoulder. "Thank you." She whispered. "For tonight. I had an amazing time." I played with her hair and inhaled her scent. "Only for you pudding." I murmured and leaned in to place a kiss on her forehead.She froze, but then calmed down. I'm pretty sure she thought I would kiss her on her lips.How much I really wanted to do it right now, especially seeing her plump lips in a wicked smile.I can't.Or at least, not yet.But soon.Soon pudding, you will be mine. And I'll tell you the truth. The truth, that I've known you all along.Jill Malik P.O.V"So...How was the date?" The moment I stepped out of my room to have breakfast, Reina started to interrogate me. I ignored her and made myself coffee and a sandwic
"But," he said. He pulled his hands out of his pocket and my eyes widened at what he was holding. A round cut white fire opal gold ring. So goddamn pretty. "This is a promise ring. I swear I didn't meant to fall in love or I thought I wasn't capable of falling in love. But then you appeared and yeah how cliche it may sound, I started wanting everything. Your smile, your jokes, you. Just all of you. I'm not the best, but I promise I'll love you with all my heart. So Jill Pudding Malik, this is my way of stepping out of the friendzone. Do you want to be my girlfriend?"I couldn't hold back my tears. This was all so unrealistic. I thought this only happened in fairy tales. Reina was right. He is the modern version of prince on the white horse. Gentleman in a bugatti.My heart was pounding against my chest and I wiped my tears away. "Of course, oh my god. This is so cute."The things I felt for him right now were indescribable. Butterflies were erupting in my stomach as he slid the ring
