Ivanna

I step inside the pitch-dark cabin and surge inside. There's no one at the desk. The receptionist told me Andrea is inside but I'm unable to locate her anywhere in the cabin.

"Good afternoon, Ivanna", a sharp voice comes from somewhere as I roll my eyes.

My eyes finally land at the corner of that huge cabin. That woman is standing near a massive bookshelf that is filled with tons of books I can never think of reading. I have often avoided reading books with too much depth because I thought they were gonna drive me crazy.

Andrea looks like in her late thirties. She has blonde hair and brown eyes. She's lean with enough stretch marks on her face which unexpectedly makes her look more gorgeous when she smiles.

The anticipation that I was going through before entering the cabin starts decreasing with the sight of hers. I feel a kind of positive in her smile as if I can already trust this woman with all my hidden emotions.

"Good afternoon", I pass her a warm smile.

    IvannaI completed the research paper in less than an hour today and this is like breaking a record. I have been struggling with my work recently. Due to my messed-up schedules and awful incidents happening around me, I couldn't focus on the firm much. All thanks to Jane and Nora for handling it all like theirs. But I'm noticing we're lagging so much.My thirty day plan of researching the medicine out of rare seeds was about completed two days back. And I just realised that the whole month has passed and I haven't read a single topic related to it.Sucks!What have I been even doing?Nothing. "That's a lot of work, Ivanna", Tate shrugs, curling up her face as we walk through the corridor while figuring out how much work has to be done. "I know", I exhale deeply and reach the lobby to collect some information from the reception. The firm seems to be way too noisy today. I don't know what the hell they are gossiping about."What's going on, Tate?" I ask, skimming through the papers

    Ivanna"Lord, girl! You did it!" She whistles on the call as if I achieved a gold medal or something. "Relax, Emily!" I sigh. "It was just the first session""And you liked Andrea. That's already a victory. Once you like your therapist, you know that half of your problems are solved. You know I was too unsure about Camden when I first met him. Especially when I knew he was a man and my problems were more like only women can relate. But he was so damn amazing. Seventy percent of my anxiety was gone after the first session with him. I can't thank him enough for whatever he did for me. Sometimes, family, friends, and your partner can't do those things for us that they can do. Basically, just trust Andrea and follow her instructions. We'll see a massive change in yourself and- ah Okay!" She laughs. "I don't wanna blab anymore""Thanks for wasting your time on me, Emily", I sigh."Yeah, right!" Her pressed voice comes. "Don't get started, Ivanna. Anyway, I'm glad and I hope Christian is h

    Christian She was screaming to fire people. That was enough for me to realize how much angry and frustrated she was. She never raised her voice at her employees, let alone fired them. When Nora told me how she has been haunting everyone today, I couldn't believe that, even though I found half of the employees yawning and dozing right now. No doubt that poor employees were the victim of her anger which was eventually for me. I thought it was gonna be hard to convince her anymore. But to my surprise, a big smile comes across her beautiful face as she sees me standing in front of her with a bundle of roses she has asked for this morning. And definitely, I'm smiling at her. "What— what are you doing here?" She looks too stunned to speak as I inch closer to her."Did it ever happen that you asked something from me and I didn't give it to you?" I ask her with a smile.In the meantime, she jumps into my arms, taking me aback as I snake my left arm around her tightly, holding the roses w

    ChristianWe went for a long ride on the motorbike and reached the beach to spend the rest of the night at the shore. She had been sounding so tired all the time but she managed to smile and enjoy the rest of it. We made love at the beach like that day but it wasn't short and rushed like before. When I was undressing her, she looked unsure like before and her eyes were filled with questions. She ended up asking me if I found her attractive like before. I used to understand her doubts about her actions before. She was never so open about it. But tonight, she finally asked for it. I kept telling her that she was the most beautiful woman on this earth for me. But she said that wasn't the answer to her question. She wanted to know if she was attractive. I was clueless about the term attractive. For me, she had been everything to me. My answer to her was complicated as much as her question was simple. "When we're addicted to love, the thing called 'attraction' merges with love. For me

    ChristianTo my surprise, I discover her on a yoga mat, her eyes closed, facing the sun as she inhales and exhales deeply, holding her knees. She's sitting cross-legged, completely into a world I have no idea of.It's not that I didn't make noise while coming inside. I casually entered with enough loud footsteps. But she seems to be completely unconcerned. I have never seen her meditating before and it has me shocked yet I felt good to see her. I don't know for how long I have been staring at her while standing beside her until she squirms with a beep. I spot a tiny stopwatch near her. She slowly opens her eyes with a wider satisfactory smile on her face, still unaware of my existence. I wish it lasted longer. She looked so relieved when she was in meditation. Grabbing the stopwatch, she pauses as if she has finally realized I'm there. She tilts her head at me with a surprised smile."Hey, when did you come?" She asks."I don't remember exactly", I scratch the back of my head wh

    Christian"Chris! Slow!" Ivanna squeals when I stumble upon the dressing table while buttoning my shirt. I had literally forgotten that I had to reach the office early today after I saw Ivanna on the balcony."I'm late", I groan. My phone is ringing continuously. One call after another one and I have dropped my tie for like ten times. I can't even make the knot properly as my hands give with another call. "I'm coming!" I howl at the call, gripping the phone between my cheek and shoulder while attempting to fix the stupid tie. It's already 7 and I'm still at home. "Tell me the progress""Sir, I'm confused", Nicole stutters."I can't believe you're confused. You better get trained again, Nicole. Just do an internship or for God's sake", I grunt. "This fucking tie""I'm sorry, sir. Don't fire me", Nicole whines from another end when I pull off the tie. "Then do what I have asked you to do. There's no point in being confused", I shrug. Just when I'm about to throw the tie away, I fee

    ChristianAs I turn around, uninterested, I find Mr. Fox and Thea standing in front of me. She's as usual gazing at me with a smirk. They walk toward us and I drive my eyes away from them. "Good evening, Mr. Fox. What a pleasant surprise!" Dave beams, shaking their hand with him. "Good evening", Mr. Fox chuckles. "Actually, my wife keenly desired to attend the party. So, here I am""Ah! That's great. Good evening, Mrs. Fox", Dave shakes hands with Thea too. "You look beautiful""Thanks, Mr. Dave", Thea says and drifts her eyes at me. I don't know why the fuck she always stares at me for no reason. "Hello, Mr. Scott", she spreads her hand in front of me and there was no need for that. I clench my jaw and roll my eyes around. It would not look good if I turn her down in front of them. "Hello", I accept the handshake anyway. "Well, there's something called a compliment. You didn't give that to me"Unfortunately, Dave and Mr. Fox are way too busy to hear us."There are enough peopl

As I strive to look at her clearly, I get to know she's Mr. Fox's assistant. My head is aching so badly after just two shots. Heck! Why did I even take the next one? My vision goes slightly blurry as I gasp."Strange! Why? I thought it was just a party. They didn't tell me they are gonna talk about work", I scoff.I'm not at all ready to talk about work. It would be so unprofessional and embarrassing if they find me almost drunk. "I— I don't know", she stutters. "That's what Mr. Fox said and he has already gone to the room with Mr. Dave"Dammit!I have no other option.Taking lazy steps, I come back to the hallway and it's noisy all around. The hallroom isn't too much dark but due to my vision getting blurry, I can hardly see anything around. However, I spot Kane a few feet away from there. He's still near the counter.

    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

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.

    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.

    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.

    Tiffany We talked a lot today. I'm glad that I took this whole day out for him because we needed to have this conversation. I have finally decided to move in with him. 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.
