After college, I said my goodbyes to my friends and went to the nearby cafe. Claire said that she will be in the library and will come to pick me up when I am done with the date.

I entered the cafe and scanned the room for Stance. He is sitting at one of the corner tables looking lost in thoughts. I went to him and waved my hand but I think he is so deep in his thoughts that he didn't notice me even when I sat down across him.

"Hey, Stance!"I waved my hands in front of his face bringing him to look at me.

"Hey! When did you come?" he asked surprised.

"Just now. Anyways, what are you thinking? You were so engrossed in your thoughts."I asked.

"Nothing, just some stuff," he said and smiled his heart-melting smile but his smile didn't reach his eyes. I always feel that his smiles are forced but why will he force himself to smile when he is the one who asked me out.

"Let's order. What do you want?" he ask

    Ring...ring...I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I grabbed my cell phone from nightstand and opened my eyes a little to see the caller. Stance!!! It's Stance calling me!!! I got up and looked at the time, it's 10 in the morning. Today is Sunday, a day of complete rest. That's the reason Vis didn't come to wake me up like he usually does.I answered quickly."Hello!!"I said smiling."Hey, good morning, beautiful!" he said in his sweet voice."Good morning!"I said blushing a little by the word beautiful. I can never get used to this nickname."I was wondering that today is a holiday and we won't be able to see each other...so...I thought how about...how about we go out for movie." he said little hesitating.I smiled. He is so cute when he is nervous."Sure. Tell me the time and place. I will be there."I said smiling."Roxen theatre at 12, if it's ok with you." he said."Sure."I said hanging u

    Party!! Vis wants to take me to a party!! That's so rare..no..it's the first time!! I am so excited!!!"Sus!!! You are listening, right?"my brother asked me breaking me out of my thoughts."Yes. Yes. I am."I said smiling brightly."You wanna come or not?"he asked."Yes. I am so excited about this."I said excited.He chuckled."I can figure that out just from your voice. Sincecupcake, I mean Grace and Mike are not here; we will be going alone and guess what..."he said excited."What?"I asked more excited."My little baby sis is going to be my date. I am so excited. This is your first business party and I get to be your date." he said excited.I laughed."Me too."I said laughing.My brother is really so cute. He is not sad that his fiancé won't be here to be his date but happy that he will get to be my date for the party. I guess it will be fun."Anyways, it's already more th

    We both went inside. I looked around, the party is not how I imagined. I thought that people will be drinking and dancing to loud music and having fun but here everyone has a glass in their hand and they are just talking, some are dancing as a couple to really slow music. I guess a teenager's party is a lot different from a business party. I am really going to get bored today.We walked further inside and I can feel the glares of jealous girls from all around us. Maybe it's because I am with Vis, the most handsome eligible multibillionaire bachelor, not to forget engaged but has not been seen with any girl other than Grace. I think it won't be that boring. I smiled thinking about what I am going to do today."Why are you smiling one of your mischievous smiles? What are you going to do?" my brother asked looking at me."Nothing." I said smiling innocently.He didn't believe me but shook his head letting it pass."Come, I

    "Hey, my fiancé’s date!" Grace said smiling mischievously.She is just like me. She knows what I am thinking."Hey, my date's fiancé!"I said smiling."I heard you went to meet your parents." I said confused."Yes, I did. But, then my brother heard that you are attending this party with Vicki and he insisted on coming here." she said shaking her head."Really! Then I will have to talk to him about this."I said smiling."You both really try your best to hide it." she said winking at me.I gave her a confused look. What does she mean by that? She doesn't know about Stance, does she? That can't be true."You look beautiful." Ace said looking at me from head to toe. I call Grace, Ace."You forgot about how beautiful you yourself look." I said smiling."So, that's the reason why all the guy's eyes are glued towards us." she winked at me and we both giggled.The bimbos just stared

    TRAVIS'S POV:I and Sus entered the place. This is the first business party for Sus, I really want her to enjoy and have fun. I look around and saw every guy is staring at my baby sis or should I say drooling over her. I clenched my fists in anger. I really hope I don't end up beating a few of them today because that will only make my baby sis sad. How I hope my cupcake was here, I know she would find a way to calm me down, and also Mike would have helped me to keep Sus safe.I look at Sus. She is smiling, not just any smile but her mischievous one, this means she is really up to something and I can't even stop her because I love her so much."Why are you smiling one of your mischievous smiles? What are you going to do?"I asked her little worried."Nothing." she said smiling innocently."Come, I will introduce you to all my clients first." I said walking to a group consisting of some of our
