Tiffany

I was engaged in work the whole day. In reality, I'm more than just a nanny over here. Strangely enough, I'm looking after everything, from grocery shopping to cleaning, cooking, etc., etc. I have to guide the house help all day long. Every day is a busy day for me. And I'm glad I could spend my entire day working, especially today when I'm in a bad mood.

After checking out if the dinner is prepared or not, I come back to my room. My eyes directly land on the way to my phone. I surge towards the bedside table and unplug my phone. It's 5:45 in the evening and there's no notification on my screen. It's not strange. My phone has been looking like this ever since, if I don't include the last three days.

It leaves me in a sea of disappointment.

Attachment sucks.

Especially such attachments where you can expect something. I stare at the screen for a couple of seconds and can't help opening his chat again. There's nothing.

Letting out a sigh of disappointment, I put my phone back

    *I dropped Ryan and Kevin at school and before that, I made sure I sent the location and time to Sebastian. He didn't reply to me after that. We didn't talk after last night. And I believe he's a damn busy person already. He might have proposed to meet me because I was upset last night. I don't think he'll be able to spare some time from his busy schedule. As I expected, it was already fifteen minutes past the time I told him. I have been standing outside the supermarket for ten minutes. Then I found it better to go inside, expecting he's not going to make it over here. I take the cart and walk near the shelves, looking for the goods. I tick off each item from the list after putting them into the cart."Cereal!" I let out a deep sigh of disappointment since I know where I can find it.I look up at the top shelf. I always struggle to get it and end up calling a salesman for help. This time there's no one around me. I go on my tiptoes, trying to reach it. However, it's far away from

    IvannaLauren looks terrified. Her eyes have popped out and her mouth is parted in shock. I don't understand the reason behind such fear since no one from us ever threatened her or anything. We tried to reach her peacefully but she constantly kept turning us down. I pass her a smile. "I'm sorry for showing up over here. But I need you to listen to me. It'll only take five minutes"Her lips shiver as she steps back. In the meantime, she turns around and surges faster toward the gate. I chase her right away. "Lauren! Lauren, wait!"I block her way, huffing and she gazes up at me."I just need five minutes, Lauren", I scoff. "Why are you running away?""I'm not running away, Mrs. Scott", she shrugs. "It's just that I feel harassed by you guys"I shake my head in disbelief. "Harassed? Lauren, none of us are trying to harass you by any means. We tried to contact you. Just twice. Very politely. And we just want you to give us five damn minutes""And you think, I'll be ready to meet you?"

    TiffanySebastian brought me to the cafe attached to his father's bakery. It has a kind of vintage and cosy structure inside. The space is not large enough which makes it look even cosier than most of the cafes. We walk inside and I have to squeeze a bit toward the tables while two people pass by."This place is a bit crowded", Sebastian tilts his head to watch me. He sounded more like he was apologising for that."It's okay. I already—" I look around. "Love this place. Different than all the places I have been to"He passes me a smile and walks towards the table in the corner. I follow him over there. It's just close to the glass mirrors. He pulls the chair for me and I take the seat. "Thanks", I say. He sits on the opposite side of the small table and grins, "so, what will you have? You liked the lemon bars that day?" He asks before I could answer."Actually, yes", I giggle. "They were really good""So, let's order that one", he halts and taps on the table slowly. "Sorry, I did

    Tiffany"What's going on over here?" Sebastian appears back at the table, looking at Gary and me, and takes his seat. "I was telling her about your iconic wedding announcement", Gary says with a big smile of pride. Sebastian's eyes widen into utter disbelief. "Gary, you just did not—""I did", Gary smirks.Sebastian lets out a deep sigh of annoyance, glancing shortly at me. I keep grinning at the situation, knowing slightly about the context. "You, fucker", he grunts at Gary. "You shouldn't be swearing in front of a lady. Well, that's pretty obvious since you didn't date properly for years. Learn the manners back", Gary tells him."Fuck off, Gary. You already made a good joke out of me over here", he shrugs."Well, I enjoyed the story, though. It was funny", I chuckle at him. Sebastian frowns. "Oh, you find me funny?"I roll my eyes. "A bit actually"He grimaces. "Enjoy!" Gary winks before walking away. Sebastian has put a dirty face on."What?" I ask while smiling. "It wasn't

    Tiffany Sebastian drops me at the parking lot near the grocery store, just near the car."Okay, then–" my lips widen into a goodbye smile as I unfasten the seat belt while looking at him. "I'm really sorry again", his voice is filled with so much disappointment as he looks at me with those puppy eyes. I'm really– already– whipped for this man in just a week. I don't know what's going to happen to me when I'll know more about him and deeply know him. "I told you not to be sorry. We literally spent the whole morning together", I tell him. He nods and just peers into my eyes. His reaction is frozen. I can't figure out the way he's just staring at me now. It's more like he's disappointed or guilty about something. Why is he like that?I can't help hovering from my seat and leaning closer to his face, capturing his lips into a comforting kiss. He immediately wraps his right arm around my waist and pulls me into a passionate one. I started this and he seems to finish it wilder than ev

    Tiffany I jump off the bed and make sure the date I'm seeing is right. Yes, it's right. It clearly says the date is tomorrow. However, I can't be so excited about a birthday from a social media account. Sometimes people put random dates. To make sure, I immediately goo gle search for it. However, there's nothing about his birthday. He never talked about it. And honestly, Sebastian has never fought any case for a celebrity that people will be eager to write his biography in articles. I shrug, then go back to his profile straight. After scrolling through his timeline a bit, I reach the point where people were wishing him last year.And yes!The date is correct which means it's his birthday tomorrow.Heck!Why didn't he tell me? Well, who says that MY BIRTHDAY IS TOMORROW?Especially when he believes that I did much research on him. He may think I knew about his birthday. That's worse.Why– Just why did his birthday have to come just a week after we met and I barely know his likes an

    Tiffany "Okay, ma'am", I can urgently customize a card for you but it may charge more. Like 20 bucks", the woman in the gift store says. I have already got red roses worth 25 bucks and it seems to be pretty good. I already covered the price.I don't know if buying red roses for a guy is a good idea. I never saw any girl doing that. Maybe, rarely. Also, maybe he has gotten roses from women before. He's been into dating people for more than a decade and it's the first time for me. For me, it's the first time I'm buying roses for anyone. For a man. And it's really a big thing for me. A way to tell him that he's the only person who ever existed on this earth who made me feel different about myself and made me believe that I am worthy of much more than I think I do. I deserve to be appreciated by others. It's not always the self-love we need. "Ma'am", the woman calls me, dragging me out of my thoughts. "Are you okay with this?""Yes, please", I say excitedly as the woman gives me a thi

    Three minutes ago.Tiffany I come out of the Uber and take a deep breath while holding the bouquet with the card with my note written on it. The woman has really done a fine job to decorate it beautifully. I'm excited, also nervous at the same time, still wondering if he would like me to show up without letting him know. What if it feels like crossing a boundary to him? However, as far as I have known Sebastian he's the sweetest. At least, to me. I have seen him putting on a poker and cold face in public, especially when we're not together. Alone. I carry the bouquet and walk towards his small house, my heart beating faster. As I reach the door, I find it open. That's strange. But also good that I can just go inside and surprise him. I peek inside. From the door, I can only see the narrow corridor which leads to the living room. I step inside, holding all my excitement inside, and keep walking. It's really silly of me that I figured out he was in the living room by his cologne. Th

    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

    Tiffany Emery runs to Sebastian. "Da—dy"And he immediately drives his eyes down and takes her in his arms. They both look at me lovingly. Now, I don't feel bad about pushing the wedding. This feeling would not be the same if we got married before Emery came. Ryan and Kevin walk beside me to the aisle. I wanted them to do this honour because if there's anyone in this world I still love more than Sebastian and Emery, My eyes become teary as I walk to them. Sebastian spreads his arm at me and I immediately dig into his chest.He leans closer to my ear."My beautiful bride"I smile against his chest and look up. He takes my hand and leads me to the centre. I take a look at every one. John, Mr Ryder, Gary, Myra, Christian, Ivanna and the recent teenager Chrisanna. Everything feels so complete and beautiful.

    TiffanyI can't figure out how to react and what it's all about because I don't wanna assume anything unreasonable. He's on his knees with a damn ring.It means— God! I can't— comprehend it. 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. I had known a long time ago that I needed you in my life. Forever! And I'm not scared to ask you that—"With that pause, my heartbeat stops and my entire body shivers when I wait for him to complete."Will you marry me?" I feel goosebumps littering all over me with those words. Did he really ask me for marriage? It takes me a while to process. His eyes are full of fear and hope and I'm left in shock. Never in my wildest dreams, I had imagined he would propose to me. I hear some people around cheering up and root

    TiffanyTime indeed flies like air and it happened in my case in a better way. In the best way, actually. I started my job in the daycare centre with all the lovely kids around which made my life less monotonous after Ryan and Kevin left. 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. My salary doubled in just three months after joining for my good service and the way all the kids related to me. In a year, I was promoted to manager of the daycare centre, life couldn't be any less beautiful. It's been two years, I and Sebastian are together and we are living our best life. We hardly argued and most of the time it was just silly. He loves to tease me and I go along with it. Sebastian has become the most demanding lawyer in the

    TiffanyWe spent the last two days painting the house and I can't describe how beautiful it came out. We did some changes like replacing the furniture and donating some. 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. It's a painting I got from an art summit years back, featuring a mother and her small daughter, surviving

    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. Maybe, I'll wait for a while before proposing to her. And t

    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. Surprisingly, Sebastian didn't suggest h

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. It's my call to explore and look for opportunities which I'll be doing from today. I'm thinking about having a conversation with John again. I want him to change his decision of holding back until I settle down. Because that's impossible. I'll need a lot of time to clean the mess and organise my life and I think I'll surely do it if I have Sebastian.I'm glad that Sebastian understood me and more than that he trusted me enough.
