Peter's POV

I received several calls from extended family and friends. Delivery men came knocking on my doors, passing presents sent to me because I already told everyone that they don't have to come over here.

"This private birthday is just perfect" Bella exclaimed just after we cut the cake.

"You think so too?" I asked, shoving a piece of cake into her mouth and she did the same to me.

"Yeah, it seemed like both of us are us are left alone in this world" She said. I agree.

"You told me to get prepared earlier. For what?" I asked.

"Oh that. You are getting a birthday gift from me!" Bella said.

"Oh wow. You insisted on getting me a birthday gift even when I told you that you are the best birthday gift ever" He said.

"Yeah. You said that. So I'm giving myself to you" She responded.

"Huh...what Bella, I ... didn't mean it that way" I stuttered.

She bursted into laughter : "I don't mean it that way too. You little boy with a naughty mindset!" S

I had no option than to leave. Mom and I shedded more tears before we eventually departed. The driver barely said a word to me in the car while he drove, we passed by the expressway where I usually deliver newspaper then it go to a point that I didn't know the main road.

Soon we arrived at a mansion with a huge close gate right in front of the building, on getting to the exact front of the gate, the gate opened by itself and he drove in. "We're here" The driver announced. Soon he pulled the car brake at the garage, I guess. I came out of the car and glared around the strange beautiful environment.

"Oh shit, it's morning already when would she get off the bed" The voice said again. I guess it was Mom but why is she waking me up when i can sleep as much as i want to until it's time to collect some magazines to sell.. “Mom”I muttered and yawned. Then began to stretch my hands with my eyes still shut. “Good morning mom”I said rubbing my eyes. “Mom? ” "Who's your mom?" Now the voice doesn’t even sound like my Mom’s.. It was a Muscular voice! What? Who could that be? and what is he doing in my room? The voice wasn’t even familiar so I didn’t bother opening my eyes. I shut it. “Isabella! ”The muscular voice called again. I finally opened one eye first before i opened the second. I almost screamed but he covered my mouth with his palm when he noticed that i was about to scream. It was then I remembered where i was. “ I’m so sorry” I said removing his palm

  • More Than A Maid   School Tour

    Bella's POV We had few more classes after recess and then few hours after noon, school dismissed. I swear, It is very hard for me to keep hiding it that I stay with Peter, most especially from Francisca. Francisca is too clingy, she's actually being friendly in her own way unlike Monica who kept stealing glances at me and made sure I caught her doing so, then she would roll her eyes and look elsewhere. I can't believe Peter is dating a girl like her, they're completely words and opposite when it comes to their character and they're not even compatible. "So where do you live?" Francisca asked me as she hung her backpack properly on her back. "I... Uh... I stay at CenWay" I stammered. "Wow, you are a girl from a very wealthy family" She said and I wondered why she said so. Oh wait! The buildings in that avenue are mostly mansions, penthouses.. "Uh...Err... It's not like that" I continue to stammer. I didn't wanna say the truth neither do I wanna lie to her. "However it is, I wou

  • More Than A Maid   His Friends, Vincent

    Bella's POVI made more friends the next day although they weren't as clingy as Francisca. Francisca is still the only person I'm very intimate with. While the remaining friends I made, all we say to ourselves were just casual friendly greetings like: Just "Hi, Hello Bella" "Hey" "Good morning Isabella".. I guess what made Francisca and I more close is because her seat is just behind mine. Before we left home this morning, Peter gave me some sum of money to spend during the recess period. He is so nice. Today I tried so much not to step on Monica's nerves, well I haven't been stepping on her nerves yet she has been the one causing troubles between us. After Recess, we had mathematics which is literally everyone's worst subject except mine. Many were not even listening to the teacher, many were sleeping.. "Questions on This Topic would definitely come out in your examinations" The teacher said and it's made everyone afraid and they tried paying attention. "Even in college, you wo

    Bella's POVI'm not a night owl, the last time I stayed awake in the middle of the night was during the examination season. But this time around, I was only busy with my boyfriend and I was planning to have a french kiss with him. I returned to my room. My heart was still beating really fast, I touched my cheeks, I could feel it reddened and hot. I tossed on my bed as I began to recall the whole scenero, I didn't know that it'll make me so nervous. His simple touch, made it look like we were in a romance mood. I kinda love that feeling though. Somehow, I wish we completed what we've started even if it's just the french kiss and intimate cuddle and maybe the romance. I picked up my phone, hissing at it because it ruined that mood. I've forgotten that I was the one who set the alarm. I smirked and unlocked my phone. I noticed that I have a message. Haven opened it, I found out that it was from my mom. ~'Flora is here. Come say Hi to her tomorrow' It reads. Huh

    Peter's POV Then I sighted Vincent, standing at the entrance and watching us from there. "Vincent" I muttered. "Where is he?" They all turned to look at him. And then, he started walking towards us. My heart was racing a little, I was afraid that Vincent might ruin this special day maybe that's why he agreed to come here even when we aren't in good terms. "Hi guys" He said to all of us when he came closer. "Hello, Hi Vincent" We responded back. He smiled widely instead.. "Happy birthday in advance Peter" Vincent stretched his hands towards me for an handshake. I hesitated a little before recieving it. He had an handshake with the rest before he took his seat, beside me on my other side. "As... err.. as I was saying before you came in, order whatever you want. All bills are on me" I repeated, signaling the waiter to come over and he did. We ticked the menu lists, gave it to him to go bring our orders. "Did you invite Monica?" Vincent su

Talk of the devil, we heard a knock on the door and the visitor announced that he was the delivery Man. "Go get it. The order isn't for me. " I gestured to Bella. "I didn't place any order too. Probably your parents" She replied. "No, they didn't" I smiled. "Just go get it" I told her. She looked at me suspiciously as she walked to the door to meet the delivery Man. I came closer to watch the scenero. "Hello, I think you've got the wrong address" Bella said to the delivery Man and I chuckled inaudibly. "No. I'm at the right place. One Miss Bella Daves placed this order" He said. "What

    Bella's POV We did not stop kissing until we heard some footsteps coming, probably close to us. He held my hand and gently pulled me to his room. I bit my lips, smiling and blushing. I touched my cheeks as I could feel it hot and red. Peter was smiling widely too. I wanted him to speak first but right now, I was so shy. Then He coughed in an awkward way then finally said something; "I miss you Bella" "Me too. I miss you" I replied. "Well... obviously. We went through alot. So we didn't have time for us" He said,holding my hand and intertwining it with his. "I'm sorry..." I wanted to apologise again but he interrupted me by placing his finger on my lips and I smiled.

    Bella's POV "Peter" I called his name after he has taken some steps away. He stopped walking but he didn't say anything. He didn't even turn to look at me. I didn't know where to begin, so I kept mute. He wanted to leave again, so I began to spew out my heart. "Peter I'm sorry. Stop avoiding me and talk to me!" I said and began to cry but he scoffed like he didn't care. "Peter!" I screamed his name. That was when he turned to look at me. "Is it high time we communicate now? No, I don't think so" He smirked. "I'm sorry" I repeated. "Okay. I'm glad your father's killer has been found. It's been making you worried. That's all I have to say to you" He said. "Peter" I muttered, moving closer to him slowly. "What is it Bella?" He asked. "Are you mad at me? Why?" I mumbled. He sighed heavily. "Yes, I am mad at you. I'm super mad at you. First, you totally believed my parents must have killed your father" Peter said. "No - I... " I stam

She started with apologising to the people she has offended, most especially Mrs Benson. Not only does she wanna apologise, she also wanna stay alone in her own lane. She doesn't wanna associate with anyone thereafter. She took a deep breathe in, let them all out before summoning up the courage to knock on the door. Since she didn't get a response at the first knock, she hesitated to knock again. She wanted to leave, she thought they'll resent her but Bella opened the door just when she turned to leave. "Ah... Hi" She stammered nervously, remembering that she owes Bella an apology too. "Hi" Bella responded sheepishly. "Err.. is everyone at home?" Monica asked as she walked in slowly. She was so scared of meeting The Bensons, she thought of what they might think about her. "I'll go announce to everyone that Mr Withney
