Ivanna

Christian has headed back to the office right after we came back to the villa. I wonder if he's gonna be the same in the reception, how many people will be there, will I be able to handle the situation well, if he has invited my parents at least.

So many questions but not a single answer.

As the sun sets over the horizon, I come back to my room to get dressed for the function. Mrs Fisher comes following me right away. 

"It's time to get dressed. I have brought your outfit," she passes me a warm smile.

"Well, I already got my outfit today"

"But Mr Scott said you will wear this," she roll

    Ivanna"Come inside," his eyes burning at me."I want to meet my dad. It's been more than a week since I talked to him. Why didn't let him in?" I bark, almost sobbing. Despite staying away from Dallas I used to be continuously in contact with dad and this is the first time I have had no contact with him."Get inside, Iv. I won't repeat," his voice is harsh and I fucking don't care."He's my dad," my voice breaks."And you may not forget the rules in the contract. Huh?""What about you?

    Ivanna"I saw your pictures. You're just looking like a doll, Ivanna. And I swear you and Christian look so adorable together," Emily beams at the other end of the call. "Girls will be so damn jealous of you""Do we have anything else to talk about other than my stupid wedding?" I shrug, strolling by the garden.It's filled with more than a thousand varieties of plants, flowers I have only seen in the pictures or heard names about. It's kinda relaxing until Emily starts talking about Christian."You're mourning your marriage, girl. That too with Christian. Do you know how many girls dream about him?" She husks."I'm not among them. As simple as that.

    Ivanna"It's Ivanna Roz— Scott. Ivanna Scott", I smile at Olivia, a girl almost in her late twenties, blonde hair, wearing a warm smile. I have met her just a while ago and she's awesome.We walk together towards the classroom. The campus looks lively and good, bigger than the campus I went to in Texas, still the vibes here can never match my campus in Texas. Gosh! I still miss that city."I don't why you look familiar to me. As if I have seen you somewhere recently", she frets, narrowing her blonde eyebrows.I hope she hasn't recognised me as Christian's wife though I'm sure she has seen some pictures of the reception. I remember the reporters taking pictures of me from a distance. After that, Christian asked them to go. That's why Olivia can't recognise me properly."Maybe, we have bumped somewhere", I giggle."Can be"We reach the classroom and it's a bit awkward for me to see people twice my age, only a few people are my age

    Christian "It never happened to me before", she keeps ranting. "I was never humiliated. It was so embarrassing. They were laughing at me" As the pace of her sobs increases, I take her again in a tight embrace. "Ssshhh. No one will ever dare to do this to you", I caress her hair. "Stop crying", I cleaned her tears again when she looks up at me. Her reactions change drastically as if she can finally realise what's happening. She's still in my arms and I don't want to let her go. She peers deep into my eyes, before driving them away. She parts herself from me and I feel suddenly empty. "Well", I clear my throat. "You need to have a bath before you have the meals. Come on, get up" She obeys quickly to my surprise as I smile at her. Collecting her clothes, she goes into the washroom. I attend to my phone which has been buzzing for a long time. I cut it and switch it off. *I ask Mrs Fisher to bring the dinner to my room.

His cords are visible in neck when he glares at me."I—""Did you seek my permission before touching my stuff?" He sneers."I was just—" I try to elaborate, finding my voice to speak."You were just what?" He howls again, coming closer to me. It fills me with terror and I shiver. "You don't like me to interfere in your life. And you're interfering in my stuff. Why so double standard, Ivanna Rozario?"My eyes start burning and welling up. I gulp down, peering into his dange

I don't know if I should get pissed at her words or stare at her. However, right now her words are pissing me off."You want to go back to Texas?" I ask again."Yes", she doesn't look at me."Do you think that's possible? And just leave it. Tell me what made you take such a decision", I groan.Even though I don't like discussing personal stuff in the office, I can't help arguing over it right here."It's my decision. I don't think I need to give you any explanation", she says.I slam the files, making a huge sound that quivers. She finally looks at me with two fearful eyes as I clench my jaw and storm towards her."You need to, Ivanna. As I remember there was nothing in the contract which said we won't behave like actual

    JohnGetting married in the 50s isn't that strange anymore. But for me, it was— for a man who believed his marriage would last forever and then believed he would never marry again. I stood before the mirror as Ryan helped other groomsmen with their last fit."You all look pretty handsome. Ready to leave. But I wish Kevin had that time to get a good fit. Your suit sucks!""I feel better anyway", Kevin snarls. I chuckle while fixing my bow tie, watching my sons in their 20s still fighting like toddlers. It's been a blessing for me to have a family which didn't break even after the biggest disaster. And maybe it was because, in our family, it had always been us. Me and my two boys. Their mother wasn't there. The death was just a formality. I didn't really change that much. My boys were happier than ever after she died. It's really mean of me to think that way but it was the truth. They were traumatised because they were kids. As they grew up, I realised they had a better and healthier

My eyes flutter open at his handsome face. No words come out of my mouth. I'm at a loss of words."I know you're shocked! And I'm sorry if I scared you with this sudden—" he doesn't complete, yet keeps his eyes straight into mine. "But I couldn't keep this longer inside me, Tiffany.

They are doing good in their new school and John has also settled into his new office over there. I and Sebastian balanced our life beautifully, supporting each other. As days and weeks passed, our love grew stronger. Among everything, I was happy with the fact that I have my identity now. A good identity.

If everything goes well, I'll be here in less than three days.John has finished all the preparations in Hong Kong and he's leaving the day after we decided to move in. It all happened so fast but I'm glad that John is recovering. It's been eight months since the tragedy and I know it's gonna take years for him to overcome this. I'm happy for him but I would be happier if there was any chance that he finds someone to love him as much as all of us found a person to love.It sucks and I hate the fact that all his life he never found someone like that.I and Sebastian carry the portrayal I had in my room for years. It's a huge one and Sebastian suggested we should place it in the living room because it's beautiful.

    Sebastian"Really, Sebastian? I have never seen you this excited before", Georgia says as I show her some themes I'm confused with and I end up telling her the whole plan. "Isn't it something to be excited about?" I blurt out. "She's moving in with me. Isn't it amazing? People can't even go past dating and we are really moving in!" I tell her and she smiles wider, sitting in front of my desk."That's true", she says. "I'm just wondering what you would do once you guys announce the marriage!" she laughs but on a serious note, it makes my heart stop for a while.She pauses, looking at me. "Sorry. I should not have said that?"I chuckle. "Nah! Nothing like that. I just spaced out when you talked about marriage""Ah! So, that means you're thinking about it", she leans to the desk. I scratch the back of my head with an awkward smile. "I could marry her the moment I saw her! But hell! I'm not repeating any mistakes from the past.

    Tiffany We stop by the nursery. It's one of the biggest nurseries in the city which I can completely believe by the way it looks. The boys run into the green surrounding and I and Sebastian slowly walk to see the plants. One of the workers accompany us, showing us all the kinds of plants we could use for decor. "I want the real ones", he says as I scan those plants which need no sunlight. They would be perfect for indoors."These are real ones too. These are just indoors", I say, watching his expression change. "But I still don't find the realness in them. You can take these. I'll look for others", he walks away to find his REAL plants as I shake my head at him in disbelief.We load all the plants we have got for the decor and Ryan and Kevin took two small ones to plant in the yard. Even though they won't be staying here, they wish to see it all grown up when they would occasionally visit. After that, we stop by a restaurant to have lunch.

Nonetheless, it'll come with more challenges and I'm ready for it. This decision will not only make our relationship stronger but also give me a world of my own. I can't wait to finally live my life in my own conditions and happiness. Sebastian asked me if he could help me anyway. But I refused to take any help from him as I did with John.
