QUINCYI took a sip from the vodka that I poured in a cup. They may all be wondering what happened but I went through shit before making it here today. It all started with those assholes car blocking my mine. ****FEW HOURS EARLIER****The men came at me, one swinging a bat at me, I blocked and throw a push on his neck, sending him away. They started attacking. I managed to take down three of them. I noticed a red car coming over. We all looked towards the person that hopped out of the car. I smirked when I noticed it was an old friend, Caleb. He rushes over to them and started punching. He took out two guys. I quickly joined along and we took out all of them. We turned around to the sound of police sirens. We immediately turn to look the direction. The cops rushes out of their car. "Everyone, put your hands in the air" one of them said. We did as told, all of the cops rushes over to cuff us. Soon, we were at the police station. "Don't you fucking get it?!" I yelled at the old far
QUINCYToday is Saturday and I don't really feel like doing anything. I just want to lay back and rest. I know I should be calling to know how my companies are doing but I'm sure Chris can handle it. My phone beeps, I grab it and look at the caller ID. I groan out in annoyance. Why the fuck is she calling me. Maybe I should just ignore it. What if it's from her father, I need money, you know. I sigh before picking up. "What?" I asked nonchalantly. I'm not gonna take anything she says seriously. "Hey, are you home?" She asked. I moved the phone from my ears to see the caller well, it's Sofia but not Sofia. She sounds so..... calm. "Why are you asking?" I asked. She took in a deep breath. "Sofia?" I called."Let's hang out......" She said, I was about to decline till she says. "As friends" she said. Hmm, what changed her mind. I looked at the entrance of the room to see if Issy was there. I stood up, my phone still on my ear. "I wanted to take a rest....." I trailed off. "It's oka
JACK"Where am I ?" Max asked . He sleeps so lightly and beautiful. But still, I don't really want anything right now especially when he hurt me. Max is really sweet but never cared at me.I was always there for him and he was happy. We were a perfect couple till his sister told him to stop. "My house" I replied. He sigh and lie down back. He's still not okay. "Is that you, Jack?" He asked. I look up at him. I didn't say anything, causing him to chuckle lightly. He soon fell back to sleep. I slowly lean closer and place a light kiss on his lips. How much I want to fuck him right now. I couldn't stand to see him get hurt by someone he doesn't even know. No matter how much he had offended me. I still care about him. Maxwell and I were fuck buddies but he knew that we shared a special bond with each other and I felt it too. I still feel it linger in the air. I was about to get up but he held my hand and push me down to his side. We were in my small condo cause I couldn't take him to
CARLAI think tonight, I need to pamper myself with a lot of movies. I made the popcorn and placed it on the table. I head to the bedroom to grab a blanket. The blanket was close to the window, but then I heard a sound, that's not a sound of cats or dogs. I look through the window. I noticed two men dressed in all black were outside the outside, holding knife.I rushed out of the room but gently so I won't alert them. I grab my phone and purse, there was a safe attic close to the main entrance. I rushed over to it and open it. I slowly crawled my way into it before shutting the door. I heard the front door open, I close my eyes, trying to be calm. I noticed the way they walked on top on the entrance to this attic. Just give them fifteen more steps. One. Two. Three.I kept listening to their footsteps in order to know when I'll get out and run through the front door.Twelve. Thirteen. Fourteen. Fifteen. I took a deep breath before swiftly opening the attic and dart out of the attic
ISABELLA***A MONTH LATER*** It's been a month now, it's been a month now, yes, a month now and I haven't seen Quincy. I have no idea where he went to. They say he usually gets private lectures from professor. But I haven't seen him for about four weeks now. He left me guilty and feeling worried, he knows how worried I can be but he decided to play it on me. It's eating me right now. I want to see him right now. I couldn't believe I got myself fooled. I think I was really naive back then. I easily get fooled and now I feel like a mess without him here. He did keep the guards to watch over me but I still want him to. I don't want any protections except for his. I miss his touch, his kisses, his warmth and hug. His warm beautiful smile. I sigh. Why is life so hard right now. I've been going through depression. I only have focus on my study but when it comes to anything else, it's as if I don't even exist again. I feel like I'm not living anymore, I'm weak and I feel really troubled.
ISABELLAI slowly followed behind him towards the bedroom. I entered the room after him. He looks around the room till his eyes falls on me. "What do you want to talk about?" I noticed how calm he was trying to maintain himself. He stood there, waiting for me to say for me to say something. I only stood there, staring at him. "Say something" he said. I snapped out of whatever I was in. Honestly, I need to work on myself when I'm next to him. It's as if during a serious moment, I end up being not serious. "I'm so sorry" I spoke. He looks at me like he's really interested in what I have to say. "I know I've hurt you and I meant every thing I said but it's not my fault. Our past..." I trailed off with a sigh."I thought you wanted to forget about the past" he asked. "You keep lying to yourself, and to me too" he said. I sigh. It's true. I don't really know why I keep bringing up the past in everything. "Can we start over?" I asked in a low tone. He stares at me, he sigh. He run his
MAXWELLI feel much better after telling Quincy everything that day. Honestly, I'm never this bad guys. I'm always good to people. I feel like I've done good by telling him. At least Isabella will be safe with him. I can tell that he cares a lot about her even if he doesn't love her. Isabella deserves the best. I turn to my right as a guy sat next to me. We were in the cafeteria. "Hey" he said. I look him up and down, he looks hot though."Hi" I replied. He scoot closer to me, his breath fanning my face. "Why are you alone on this table?" He asked. I look up, around me, noticing that some group of people were laughing at me. Then I soon realized that he just came from that table. I quickly stood up but he pulls me back down. "Ouch!" I winced. He squeeze my arm. "Don't you remember? You owe me something" he whispered into my ear. Ugh, I have literally never seen this dude in my life."Max" I look up to the voice talking to me. The other guy let go of my arm before getting up. I lo
ISABELLAIt's been a week now since all that incident happened. I can't believe Quincy's aunt is dead. I mean, it was actually self defense. There was a trial three days ago and court finalized it as self defense. Quincy on the other hand was very lucky he wore a bulletproof vest. He got really lucky, the doctor said he has a strong body. Things has been normal and easygoing for the past few days. Quincy and I have been going on date, trying to start things out with our lives. Sometimes, I wonder how he was able to do everything. He only ask me that day not to go home and that's what I did. The next thing I heard was that he was in a hospital while I was in a hotel. The news soon came out that Carla Grey died. I'm not a bad person but I'm happy she's gone. At least we can have a good life together. As for Sofia, Quincy wanted to act like he didn't know she was involved in all those wicked act of hers. But I know she's not gonna back off that easily. I smiled. I just keep smiling.
ISABELLA ****TEN YEARS LATER****I get why people prefer their kids in school for a long time. So they can have a peace of mind. Like the way I was before my kids driver brings them back from school. Kim and Kyrie walked into the house bickering about only God knows what. Kim is twelve now and Kyrie is Nine years old. Kai isn't back from school yet. He's eighteen now.I sigh. They both looked at me before rushing towards me. "Mom, Kyrie called a kid fat, she was body shaming" Kim said."Mom, Kim farted in the cafeteria" Kim retorted. It's been like this now ten years now since Quincy and I got married. Everything has been going well though. "You both should stop bickering, Kyrie, Kim is older sister, don't talk to her that way" I said to them. Kyrie squeezes her face. "You guys need to shower, then come down for lunch, okay?" I said. They just walked out on me. I sigh. "You guys better hurry up, Kai is babysitting tonight" I said. They both groan as they make the
ISABELLA "Isabella! Isabella! Wake up!" I could hear mom's voice but the sleep in my eyes was taking over me. I don't really want to wake up right now, I'm too exhausted for that. My body needs a lot of rest, it's like I should sleep on this bed for the rest of my life but I'm just wishing for death. I wonder why this woman is waking me right now, can't she see I don't want to wake up.I grab the blanket and cover my face. I heard a hiss. I pout my lips and when the sleep was about to take over, she pulled the covers off. I whine. "Get your ass up, you're getting married" it's like my body reacted to her words so quick that I sat up immediately and look around me. I looked at the time, it was five minutes to eight. What the fuck am I still doing on this fucking bed. A maid rushed in with a plate of pancakes and orange juice. I quickly started eating."Mom, why didn't you wake me earlier?" I asked. She scoff. I quickly finished the food and got out of the bed and rushed towards my b
A MONTH LATERCALEBI knew she wanted to surprise me, but I wanted to see so badly so I decided to surprise her. She's home, Lily is inside the house in front of me. I slowly open the door and quietly entered. I head upstairs, her scent lingered in the air. I pulled out the velvet box from my pocket and walked upstairs toward her room. I took a deep breath and open the door. "Welcome bac-" my words were cut of and my smile falls. Lilly was on top of a guy. She quickly got off him. The box in my hold falls to the ground. I stepped back in shock. "Caleb......I thought you went for a trip before I arrived and......" She trailed up when she realized her excuse is stupid. I turn around and rushed out of the room, I rushed downstairs, straight out of the house. I entered my car and drove off. I chuckled unbelievably. I can't believe she cheated, the sweet Lily I know is cheating on me right before I almost proposed to her. I was so foolish.I don't know, but my car took me to Katie's d
ISABELLA Why does he work here. I never imagined Jeremy to own a stadium. But I was enjoying the sight of the whole place. It had a plaza, a gym, mall, spa, and many more. I waited at the reception for him. The lady behind the counter which I assumed was the receptionist said he's very busy and I can't meet with him but I'm not giving up now.I looked at my watch and tap my feet. I've been here for more than an hour and this place is fucking big. I'll just have to wait till he comes out.Few hours went by, I got a call from Quincy. "Hey" I said tiredly."What are you still doing?" He asked."I haven't seen him yet. I'm still at the reception waiting for him but there's no sign of him......" I looked around, then I noticed a feature that looks like Jeremy but it was him. "I'll call you back, I think I just saw him" I hung up and stood up, rushing towards him. He was with many bodyguard. I rushed passed them but they held me back. "Jeremy" I called. "Please, I just want to talk to him
ISABELLAAfter having ice cream, we head back to the office and another surprise was here. Confetti everywhere along with balloons and a banner that says 'Congratulations'. "Congratulations!" Everyone exclaimed. Quincy smiled at them. Chris walked up to us with a grain. "Congrats boss, congrats Isabella" he hugs us both. I grin at him. I'm so happy right now. Now I know what it feels to be engaged. It's so exciting, it's like moving into a new level that you are yet to see, like a completely different word. It's just like it was yesterday we met again and I'm already engaged. KATIEI've been working non stop in this hospital, I just want a promotion or something. "Katie, please check on the patient in room seven" the doctor said."Yes sir" I replied, heading to the room. I picked up my pace, I don't want a situation that a patient needs help and I'm not able to make it there on time. I knock on the door then opened it. I shut the door behind me and face the patient. But then, I be
ISABELLAI thought he was taking me home but he was only taking me to his house. Why is taking me to his house? I stood in front of the living room, wondering what I was doing here.Till I finally got the courage to ask. "What am I doing here?" I asked him. He sat on the couch and stare at me with his leg on his lap. He looks so relax. "Let's go on a date after your brother's wedding" he blurted. This guy is just filled with surprises today. I wonder what have gotten into that head of his."W-why d-do you wanna go on a date with me?" Why did I ask that question. He raised a brow at me. Ms Mary walks over to get the kids. "Sit down cupcake" he said. I sigh and took a seat necks to him. "I thought about what you said this morning" he said. My heart beat increases. "I want to start all over again" he added. I smiled. "Really?" I said excitedly. He eyes me. I know he still has feelings for me. "But....." I frown immediately. "But what?" He asked. I sigh. "Do you love me?" I asked. Th
ISABELLAI never thought that that's what is on my mind for so long. Like I've always dreamt of getting married to him. I looked at him with widened eyes. He was also shocked with what I said. He chuckles. "Like, after everything, you think that I'll actually marry you?" He asked. That hurts a lot. He noticed it. "For fucking three years, Isabella. Even if you hated me, I still deserved to know that I have a child but you selfishly kept her away from me." He said. "Forgive me" I said."Take a day off, I'm not going to work anyways. See you tomorrow" Kate came out with Kim's Pink bag. "Everything she needs is in here" she handed it to him. Quincy gave me a glance before walking off. I followed behind him down the stairs. Mom walked up to us. "Are you..... taking her with you?" She asked worriedly. "Yes, I want to get to know my daughter" he smiled, looking at Kim that was sucking her thumb. Mom smiled at him and nod. "I'm sorry if I caused a lot of disturbance last night" he apolo
QUINCYAs soon as I got home, Kai got of his seat happily to come and hug me. I sigh with a smile. He had food in his mouth. We walked back to the living room. "Why so happy?" I asked. He grin at me, this kid."Because my uncle is my best friend" he said excited. "And, I have a sister" he spilled. What's this kid talking about now. "A sister......" I raised a brow. He nods. "Yeah, okay" I said, about to walk away but his words stopped me."She two years old and she leaves with mom" he said. It's not really possible, did she tell him that? "Who told you that?" I asked. He looks away from me."Anthony?" He said. I rolled my eyes, that jokester? He may probably be teasing him. I sigh and nod before walking towards the kitchen. Kai was following me, why is he following me? "So.....when are we going to meet my little sister?" He asked. I sigh and looked at the kid."There's no sister, son. Anthony was just messing around with you. Forget it" I said. It's really upsetting. I know that I w
ISABELLAHonestly, I couldn't imagine myself in a restaurant with Quincy as we wait for the Harry James he was talking about. He gave me some work to do when I was thinking it'll just be a peaceful brunch. I was filling some paperwork, it's actually his work not mine. I got tired and placed my head on the table. "Are you trying to sleep at work hours?" He snapped me back up. I eyed him with a glare."You should be happy I'm doing your work for you" I hissed. I grab the paper in my hold."Maybe you don't get what it means by assistant. You are to do whatever I ask for" he replied. I scoffed. So annoying. A man walks into the restaurant, he started looking around till his eyes landed on Quincy. He smiled before walking towards us. "Mr Grey" he spoke. Quincy looks up at him, he stood up and so did I. "Mr James, it's good to see you again" they shake hands. I smiled at the good looking man. "This is my assistant, Isabella Austin" Quincy introduced. I Shaked his hand."It's nice to mee
