After taking a shower, Leona decides not to have lunch and takes a quick nap. So, she doesn't have any idea what is going on downstairs.Holding Belle, she lies down and places Belle on her belly. The tiny puppy is obedient enough to relax on the tiny belly of her mother.It was a great day. She smiles thinking but a pout happens to appear when Vasquez's name appears in her mind. Holding the phone, she searches for his number. Today, she was surprised when she realized that on that night, only Vasquez was with her when she was dancing. And he recorded it secretly" Shall we call him?" The hesitation in her eyes is visible, leaving a silent voice of fear, what if she disturbs him?However, her heart has been desperate to call him since morning. He is the one who she can think of as someone she trusts and shares everything possible. So, without telling him any of those that make her happy, leaves her empty."No. Let's do it. Didn't he say I am a spoiled brat? Let me be more spoiled!"T
" Who is this little girl in my son's house?" Her cold tone taunted Leona who was pulled out of her bed with no mercy from her sleep. Most of the time, she faces the horrible nightmares of her being pulled by some people disguised as Doctors in the ER. So, the pull from Mrs. Parker who is extremely enraged seeing another person living in her son's house, made Leona shake violently.Her sleepy eyes shake with terror, seeing lots of people standing in front of her, not moving. Their angry expression gives her the Idea of getting attacked by them." Who the fuck is she? Anne!" Mrs. Parker growls, having a silent warning inside her head that her son seems to have brought another woman to make her his lover. And this will be the biggest obstacle for her." Ma'am! Please. She is just a kid. Don't say anything like this! Young Miss. Please freshen up. We will talk downstairs!" Anne hurriedly protected Leona who was shaking. Her fuzzy feeling is getting cleared but she can't possibly stop
" Mom. Since when did you start interfering with my life? Why are you in my private house with a woman who I acknowledge as nothing!?"Atoning his enraged hostility, he calmly spoke to his mother through the phone who is right now trying her best to make the servants accept the sudden guest. " Are you calling me to say what I should do or not" Mrs Parker hisses to her son's constant rebellious actings." I never got the right to tell you what you should do or not. But you bringing a woman out of nowhere, announcing her as my fiancee or whatever. What's going on with you? Am I someone who just got married anyone every time you wish me to? What did you take me as? A pushover?"" Vasquez Parker! Your voice is making me upset. You should watch your tongue!"" Then shall I use force, Mom? Then, fine. Choose one thing. I will stop working under you Two and leave the house after marrying those girls you keep bringing in or get her out of my house and you too. Without our meeting dates, don'
Although the doctor told him to stay still and take some rest, he came here. Since the meeting was canceled and will be held on Tuesday, he will stay here till Monday. Almost lightheadedness, he opens the door and throws the bag he has been carrying with him on the couch. Loosening the tie, he opens the cupboard and grabs the bathrobe. His exhausted body is almost giving up. The dim light has spread its weak light which doesn't make him wonder if he can walk or not. So, instead of looking around his room which always stays the same, he moves himself inside the bathroom. After ten minutes of a quick shower, he walks out. Wearing the bathrobe, he grabs the towel and walks towards the switch to turn the lights on. However, his eyebrows knit, raising them, and his head turns towards the bed when he hears a soft groan. The kicking blank creates a subtle bed-cracking sound. " What the...?"Immediately switching on, he guesses that it may be Rosé who hasn't left yet. His eyebrows meet ea
The soft and warm touch of breathing and a strong embrace do indeed make a strong barrier not to feel cold. Leona nuzzles, on the broad and warm chest, almost trying to get into the bathrobe, Vasquez is wearing. It's warm and worth to feel it.However, her eyelids shake, snuggles before fighting her head to move, because someone is licking her hand that she is hugging something else. Annoyed, her eyelids part away lazily, inhaling sharply and deeply, she opens her eyes fully. But her breath stops, and an instant shiver runs through her spine when her eyes see nothing but a chest, a broad chest, the bathrobe revealing most of the chest. A terror washes over her face. Thinking, how she ended up in a man's strong embrace. However, when the hands around her pull her more closely, patting her head and leaving a PECk on her head.She froze. Did that man just kiss her? He literally kissed her???Internal screaming seems to echo in her mind, leaving her in a daze. She slowly tries to ra
He thought he would witness a beautiful morning, seeing Leona flustered for making fun of him. However, life doesn't work the way people want.He has to leave the bed before her, as he finds his body burning. The pain in his head seems to weaken him to get fatigued. Now, sitting on the couch, he is resting his head on his folded arms on his knees." Please take the medicine, Young Master!"Madam Anne holds the pill and a glass of fresh orange juice. Earlier when she was preparing for breakfast, noticed him walking downstairs weakly. His fuzzy sight seemingly created trouble to move. " You should have told me that you have returned. How did you get hurt?"Vasquez says nothing but takes the pill. Why did he return? He is supposed to take some rest and get well soon. It was a rush decision to take which he doesn't regret. He feels at ease whenever he is home recently..." Young Master!" Anne sits next to him, caressing his head. " How is your insomnia recently? I didn't see you going t
" Let him take some rest! Young Miss!"Leona's hand doesn't want to let go of Vasquez who collapsed in front of her. At that moment, she was too scared of his sudden passing out which caused her to cry loudly. Later on, Butler came out right after to help her to bring her in..." He will be alright. Don't worry!"She nods walking away from him. " Aren't you going to work?" Anne asked Leona who was chewing her lip, hanging her head down." He asked me not to."" Then you don't have to go today. Please stay with him!!" Anne smiles slightly. " But.. "" I will bring your breakfast!"Leona doesn't know what she is supposed to do right now. The death glare from Rosé pierced her consciousness. She can't get close to someone's else fiancé. As everyone excuses and takes their leaves, Rosé sneaks inside the room and pushes her to the floor." What did you do to my Vasquez? Who the heck are you? Why are you seducing my fiancé?! Don't you have a little shame that you are trying to climb on
Maybe this is the age of making reckless irresponsible decisions. At this age, youngsters like to misunderstand, overlook, or get hurt by overthinking. Leona's sensitive heart which is unable to trust anyone, wants to trust Vasquez who appears in front of her as her one and only savior. However, the business trip which led her to misunderstand their situation with his decision not to tell her about his leaving, and his returning right after his so-called fiancée's appearance, strengthened her misunderstanding.Now, Blake's words are questioning the relationship between them. What kind of relationship do they have to know each other's personal life?She may think that Vasquez is so important to her and her life. However, if Vasquez doesn't think the same way, it's not his problem.He is 27 years old, so he can love or marry anyone he wants to..." We have no reasons to be each other's important one. He doesn't ought to share his life with me. Or I don't have any right to get angry or
The pairs of eyes meet when Both of them get out of the rooms. Their eyes look at each other, observing lovingly." Here is our perfect couple! Wow. The couple dresses are perfect on them!" She walks out. Her figure is gracefully adorned in a floor-length, ebony gown, its fabric glistening with a subtle sheen. The dress accentuates her slender frame, with a plunging neckline that draws attention to her décolletage, and a tasteful side slit revealing a hint of her leg. Her shoulders are bare, giving a hint of her attractive frame. Vasquez's eyes don't retreat, watching the alluring girlfriend whose appearance dims every single thing in this room. Shining, glistening like his only wishing star who he has as him forever. Her eyes are reflecting the shock after seeing the person she adores so much in that crisp, onyx black shirt which is tailored to fit snugly on his body, and broad shoulders without any problems. The Rolex watch, the styled hair and black framed sunglasses, everything
"Nobody told me that today is your birthday. That's bad!" Leona pouts, kinda disheartened by everyone that nobody let her know about Vasquez's birthday. She might have prepared something for him beforehand. However, what is done is done. She wants to buy something for him...But...Vasquez is too stubborn to let her go now. Wrapping his arms around her waist, Vasquez is standing in front of the ocean with Leona. From time to time leaving some kisses as he missed her so much." It's okay. Usually, I don't celebrate my birthday. But this time, it's exceptional. I want to spend my day with you. Only you!" Leona blushes lowering her gaze. " Do you wish me to do something for you? Anything is fine. Anything that you want to eat?"" Hmmm. Let's go on a date!" " A date?"" Yes. Our first official date. Let's go on a date!" Leona knows there is no way that she will reject his wish. Nodding off her head, she agreed to go on a date. Their first and last date...****The entire day, both of
When they handed the passport and two tickets to her hands, she confusedly looked at them. " How?"" Shall we go? Let's go somewhere beautiful!" A wave of unwillingness and fear work within her, somehow she is thinking negatively about this journey since they are so into taking her abroad or somewhere. It would be better if they took her to Vasquez than wasting time somewhere else." We are returning home anytime the next day? right?"She asked when she saw the returning ticket. If something doesn't seem right, she will return as soon as possible. " Yes. We are. Anytime you want." Anne said walking towards the immigration department.Leona nods, and carefully puts the returning ticket in her purse, making sure she can get it anytime.However, her eyes go to the name of their flight. Somewhere familiar..." Shall we go? It's our plane!" Vina holds her hand and smiles.Nodding Leona follows her. This is the first time, she is going to fly. However, it doesn't make her as happy as she
"Yes. That's right. You all don't have to return for two days. Spend your time with your family. I will notify you all once we return!" After entering the house, Leona finds everyone being so busy with work, Other than Vina, Anne, and Butler, nobody is at home when everyone is supposed to return home today. Confused, she walks towards Anne who is cleaning the couches, mattresses, and other furniture. The speed of her cleaning is giving away her rush to get them finished. " Are we expecting guests?" As she speaks, three of them look at Leona as If they were waiting for her. " Young Miss is here. Vina! Help her to get ready. I will handle everything here!" Pushing Leona toward Vina, Anne shouts. They are in a rush. Vina meanwhile, stops wiping the glass off the dining table and holds her hand. " Wait! What happened? What do you mean by getting ready?" Leona flinches seeing them in so hurry as if they're running away from the house. " No more words, Sweetheart! Let's get ready.
Next day...The social anxiety that never left Leona suddenly disappeared. Since she has nothing to lose or nothing to gain, even getting scared of people seems to be a joke to her. Despite getting uncomfortable around people, she ignores her all problems. She has to leave her entire world here, anything can't be bigger and scarier than this. Right now, Leona follows the constable who is heading inside the visitor room. She is going to meet someone whom she wishes to choke to death. However, she can't. Her life is always a joke. She doesn't want to add more jokes to it.Dragging the chair, she sits in front of a very familiar stranger, who she once wanted to see happy and healthy. Who she loved so much that despite being abused by her mother, she kept living on. " It's been a while. Are you living well?" Her cold and nonchalant voice doesn't feel like it belongs to an eighteen-year-old girl." Why are you here?" Her father asked coldly." To see how miserable you are now after ma
" You don't want to work anymore! Did something happen?" Rick, her Boss questions as she asks to quit the job. Leona shakes her head while sipping her smoothie. She doesn't want to talk about it. Still, she needs to give some excuse to quit the job that she has been working for a long time." It's very personal. I don't want to say the reason. I will work till Thursday. Please don't tell anyone about my leaving the job!" She requests as she knows Vasquez will eventually find out if she tells anyone. " Is it because of Our Boss? He wants you to stop working!" " Do you think so? Nobody can stop me from working if I want to. It's definitely nothing. Just do as I said. Don't worry. You will get some employees better than me!" She said smiling brightly. It's time to say goodbye to everyone. And her very familiar old life. " Fine. I am just heartbroken to see my most lovely and loyal employee is leaving me. But Best of luck!"" Thank you, Boss! I have to somewhere. Let's talk later!"
" We can help you for five more days! We have an emergency patient who will occupy the room where your brother is staying! Please contact us as soon as possible!"The wine creates a deafening silence in her ears as she stands before the wild sea. The voice call from the hospital where her brother is being kept was sent to her since she was unable to receive it. Her eyes get lost in the vastness of the ocean. Wishing, if she could disappear without any trace. Where she would go, where she would stay and what she would feed her brother, all of those questions would have disappeared with her disappearance." Young Miss! We are taking pictures. Please join us!"" Sure!!!" Her smile appears as free and lovable, trustworthy and pure. However, she knows, her cheeks are exhausted, her heart is bleeding and her body refuses to act like she is happy.She wants to embrace those ten people who are waiting for her to join them, be with them as family, as their beloved family.But she knows, every
" Here goes another sigh!!!" Everyone is watching Leona who is constantly sighing, while doing her math in the dining room. Since she doesn't want to spend time alone, she decided to study in the dining room to see everyone working, around her. However, Anne and Vina who are helping Chef to prepare the ingredients for dinner, have been observing her nonstop sighing. The frown on her forehead and the sad look on her eyes don't get ignored by them. " Young Miss!" Anne places a few grapes on the plate and sits on a chair. Her solemn eyes shift on Anne with a forced smile. " Do you need something, Aunt?" " Shall we go for a walk? With Belle. She is bored of staying home all day long." Saying she gets closer to Leona and whispers..." She misses her Mommy too much!" Leona giggles as she whispers and nods. " Let's go. What about we having dinner outside with everyone?" Her eyes spark with excitement as she suggested. It will be perfect for her to spend time with everyone together." D
At evening...In a luxurious VIP suite, two people are sitting on the bed tucking themselves inside the blanket. The orange hue of the evening sky is peeking through the transparent curtains, making them frown from time to time. One of them is too speechless to form any correct words out and another one is still too drunk to understand the situation. " I... I think it's a mistake... We shouldn't have..." Sophie grabs her dress before speaking as Aaron wakes up after two hours, yet to be sober. However, her words bring him to reality. His eyes reach to his wristwatch, and with a panic, he might have missed the flight at night. But when he realises that time didn't pass that much, a heavy sigh of relief heaves." Are you listening to me?" She said coldly, shaking him constantly. Aaron's silence is bothering her. She is on the way to call off the relationship. She has yet to move on. How could she make a stupid decision? They have crossed some lines and are now on the way to regret.
