Chapter- 32
Naomi walked back to the building losing all the interest to go out. Nick followed her silently, he doesn’t want to create a scene in the lobby.
In the elevator, Nick kept staring at her but she didn’t bat an eye at him and looked down the whole time.
He tried to say something but he’s hesitant too. He not only exposed his other side, but he has also put their family secret at risk. Now she’ll ask a million questions about everything and he can’t say the answers until her father reveals. He clenched his teeth in frustration.
Once they came to the house, Naomi sat down on the stairs. She doesn’t know what to ask him that much she’s shocked. Even the gun didn’t scare her but his uncontrollable rage to hurt someone scared her more.
“Hey,” he touched her shoulders. Naomi moved away from his touch.
“I can explain,” Nick said and kneeled before her.
&ld“Don’t look at me like that,” he said. Naomi shifted her gaze and biting her lower lip. Nick smiles to see the way she’s acting like a small girl.“Please, look at me,” Nick held her hand and kissed her knuckles. She gulped seeing his dark brown eyes, they were glimmering with the love for her. Her heart raced and she badly wanted to smile but before that, she has to talk. “You are so controlling, Nick,” she complained. She doesn’t want to hurt him but he had to know what he’s doing. “If you are in my place, you would have done the same,” he said and Naomi agreed to that. “Do you believe that I am a good person?” he asked. With this charming smile, innocent gaze, and sweet talk no one can dare to say that he’s a bad person. “Yes, I know you are a good person,” she nods with a smile. “Do you trust me?” “Yes, I trust you, Nick. But don’t you think I deserve an explanation for what happened there?” she asks. “I’ll t
Chapter- 33 The next day, Naomi walked straight to her father’s study room when Nick dropped her at her home. Today is Sunday and she thought he will be here. To her surprise he was there in the garden, watching the rain and nature sipping his coffee. More importantly, he’s alone. “Naomi,” he smiled when he saw her. But soon he sensed there’s something wrong seeing the look on her face. “Dad I want to talk to you,” she said. “Sure, what is it?” he asks and taps the seat beside her. “Come and sit here,” “It’s something important, dad,” she said. “Okay,” he nods. She was first hesitant but she can’t calm anymore. “Who are you?” she asks. He smiles, his ocean blue eyes filled with amusement. Nick didn’t get a chance to inform the matter to Vincent beforehand. “I am your father, Darling,” he chuckles. “I want real answers,” she said and that turned Vincent curious. “What do you want to know?” he asks.
Chapter- 34Jorge went to Julia’s class, he’s much excited this time and he doesn’t know why? But he only saw her bag there. He asked one of her classmates and she said Julia went with Martin.She’s with Martin, again? He frowned. That irritated him and the same time, anxious. He went onto search the places where they could be. Then he finally, found them near the basketball court.This is the third time, Jorge is seeing Julia with Martin and god knows how many times they met without him knowing. If Nick was here he wouldn’t let any guy near his sister and Jorge badly misses Nick.He could understand that she’s not purposely talking to Martin to get his attention. So he concluded that Julia has moved on from her feelings. He has no idea what’s going on between them but he’s so curious yet aloof to ask about it.He watched them from afar and Julia is facing her back to him so he couldn’t see her
Chapter- 35On Naomi’s birthday, she got an important test that she has to attend and Nick got classes that he can’t skip so they couldn’t get a day off and spend time together. Naomi thought if it came on a weekend it would be so better –it’s fine too; she loves Fridays.After the class, Naomi looked at her phone but there’s no message from Nick. She wondered whether he’ll come or not? He called her at 12 pm and wished her. He didn’t say when he will come and she didn’t ask him. Derek accompanied her most of the time. He’s the only person in Nick’s absence so that he got to spend time with the only girl he likes. What he’s thinking is wrong and he knew that too but he couldn’t avoid it. His feelings for Naomi haven’t changed a bit.Accompanied by Jorge and Derek she came out of the school with a face full of sadness. This day is going to end in a couple of hours but still, Nick
Chapter- 36Naomi gasped after the intense orgasm and turns to her side to see Nick panting with a smile on his face. He leaned in to kiss her forehead softly.In the past thirty minutes, he showed her the rough side of his masculinity and now his gentle side surprise. He can be both at a time and she loves it.“Tell me something,” she asks him.“Tell you what?” he smiles.“Anything, truth,” she said.He inhales deeply looking at her eyes, “You make me happy. It’s not just happy, it’s much more which I don’t know how to put in words,” he said.Naomi smiled and kissed his lips softly. “I love you,”“Do you like spending time with me or with Derek and Jorge?” Nick asks.Naomi is surprised by that question and it’s tough to answer as well. With Nick she feels the girl in her, she blushes and while holding his hand it makes her he
The pub is some ten blocks away from Nick’s apartment and the traffic made the ride longer.They went inside the pub from the back door, as Dan never used the main door often because it is crowded with people who he barely knows and he hates wasting his time with unwanted talks and greetings.It’s one of the busiest hours, they walked throw all the commotion to finally reach inside. It’s all filled with mostly men ranged from all ages and some women in elite clothes. She’s the odd one there, even Dan is dressed in a suit and overcoat.Everybody in there greeted him, he smiled and had a small talk with the people who came to him. The environment is so new for Naomi. She has never been to this side of her family which she doesn’t know existed. A guy is singing a jazz song. Many of them sitting and enjoying their drinks. A few were dancing. It’s so huge; she couldn’t recognize all those faces.The
Chapter- 37 In a blink of an eye, the month passed so fast, with all the revisions and learnings she alienated herself from the world she lived before. Nick came once to meet her. He took her to his house, and they shared a night, cuddling and talking. She still member that night’s dinner where Uncle Dan brought the topic about marriage. Nick got frustrated and said, “Dad, give me a break,” It spoiled their mood. Naomi thought he’ll say something about that but his silence surprised her because she expected him to say something like, ‘someday in the future I want to marry you,” But he didn’t say that and she left that matter when she came back to her house. But it brought two different questions in her mind, whether they will be together and if not, how could she move on after being so much in love with him. She can’t help heave a sigh with no answers. Only time will tell the answers. Derek came to her house often. Either he would study with her o
Sometime later, when Naomi is reading one of the books that Derek gifted she heard a car horn sound. It was Derek, his mom and dad were with him.Her dad is at home and she guessed they were going to talk about this now. Derek looked at Jorge’s window and then his eyes turned to Naomi’s window. She smiled at him and he smiled back at her. His eyes told her that he’s sad and for the first time, Naomi’s heart raced to see him. She didn’t mind it and came out of the room to greet her Uncle and Aunt.Dylan went to talk with Vincent, Anne and Ashley sat in the living room. Derek was standing alone near the stairs hesitating to go and meet Jorge. Naomi came to his rescue.“Derek,” Naomi got his attention, “Come with me,” she reached out her hand and he held it securely.“Are you angry at me?” he asks. “Do I look angry?” she smiles, “It’s your choice, Derek. I am glad
