Chapter 2

Ava's pov 

I rush over to the mall to pick some necessaries. I'm in such a hurry because I have a huge appointment with a new customer madam P had introduced to me , I run in my flats and practically bump into someone and throwing what looks like an iPad and iphone on the floor. 

I cover my mouth in shock and try to pick them up since I can't apologize, I was really sorry but I didn't know how to say it. I rub my hands together infront of him with a sorry face, indicating that I'm so sorry.  I hand them over to him when I see a scowl on his face, he collects them from me harshly and eyes me irritatedly. 

"You ugly little thing, you fucking bumped into me and breaking my screen, and you can't even apologize,"

I look at him as tears leave my eyes without my consent. "You have got no manners " he says and walks away. 

I bend down and cry emotionally, finally I collected myself, trying to look calm as I cleaned my eyes, the pain from all the insult of my disability fluttered in my stomach as it tightened.

A woman with light brown hair and burgundy sleek gown walks through my office door with a smile that almost touched her eyes. 

"Good day Ava, my name is Allison Knight but please call me miss A. You must've met madam P, she directed me here, I'm assuming you are?" She asked prolonging her sentence before I could finally process what she'd asked me, I pleasantly smile as I ruffle through my files, searching for an already written note of an introduction of myself. 

"I'm Ava Williams, the CEO of The Tropical Diner, please have a seat," 

I watch miss A read the script a little audibly and when she was dove she smiles pleasantly as she settled down. 

"Thank you. I'm really sorry for-, you know what I mean," she said referring to my disability and I nodded slowly. 

"Cut to the reason I'm here. I'm hosting a party here in London and P introduced me here, I really have a few meal request I'd like to introduce," she said as she rummaged her handbag, getting what she wanted, she shifted a paper to me and I read down the requests. 

"When will we have it delivered?" 

I wrote down and she replied. "Fortunately, Friday. The party's on-" she was cut through as she stared intently at my teary eyes. 

"Oh my God, Ava are you crying?" miss P questioned, but as I attempted to clean the already streaming tears more drizzled down and I instantly fell embarrassed for acting so unprofessional. 

"Did I- did I say something?" She asked and I shook my head indicating no. 

"Then what could possibly make a successful, beautiful girl like you cry, something you wanna share?" She asked softly reaching in to grab a tissue from her bag as she handed it to me. 

I picked my notebook and point out the whole scenario that had taken place earlier. 

"Oh my God I'm so sorry," she says holding me, she hugs me tightly knowing I can't explain myself. 

"Its okay Ava, everything will be fine " she taps my back as I was already sobbing heavily on her shoulders. 

------

I wrap my hands around my pillow in the sitting room obviously crying my eyes out. Colton walks in and throws his phone and stuffs on the floor on the sight of seeing me crying. 

"Oh my god!  Ava what in the world happened? Tell me who fucking made you cry and let me go rip his head off" he says rolling up his sleeve, his face indicating pure anger. 

Instead I hug him tight and cry heavily on his shoulders, he holds unto me and sigh. 

"What happened?" he asks me as I have successfully calmed down. 

I brought out my notepad and begin to write.

And in details I explain everything 

Colton's face turns bright red and he  stands. Colton is a crazy guy with well defined arms which he prefers to use it on people who crosses his line rather than sitting down and wasting time talking about it. 

"What did you do? "

I begin writing again... 

I bumped into him and his iPhone and tablets broke.

"Is that all? I could buy him a dozen of fucking tablets if that's his problem" he holds me tightly. 

I write again.. he called me ugly. I show him with a pout. 

"My darling, you and I know you are not ugly. I have taken up so many girls and you are still the most beautiful I have seen, and I'm sure you know I have seen quite many of them" a little blush heat up my face as I drop my head in his shoulders 

"Is fine sweetie, do not allow anyone choose your mood. He can't make you sad all day. Be happy pumpkin, Now give me a smile " he says pulling me up from his shoulders, my face heat up more as I smile. 

"Now that's my girl, don't worry baby, Colton is always here"

He says giving me a hug for the hundredth time already and trust me, I love them.

I hold him back and thank holy Mary, mother of Jesus that I have Colton. 

". ". ". ". 

"Avalon Williams waste any more of my fucking time and I'm gonna come in there and carry you out dressed or not" Colton yells from the sitting room. 

He was taking me out for dinner as neither of us had the strength to cook, not that he cooks anyway. It was me who didn't have the strength to cook as I couldn't bring over leftovers. 

I look my self for the last time in the mirror, I was wearing a white off shoulder straight cut gown which stops just above my knee. My blonde hair straigthen and pours down to my waist.

I always complained that I didn't like the color of my hair and wanted to dye it. Colton threatened to shave it off while I'm sleeping if I dare dyed it, he always said that he loved it blonde. 

Not that this was a date or anything, he just wanted me to dress well, maybe to make the girls who dumped him for one reason or the other, jealous. 

I slip in my sliver four inch heels and grab my clutch. I walk down the stairs towards where Colton was yelling as usual. If I had my voice, I would have shown him that's he's not the only one who can yell. 

I appear right infront of him and roll my eyes, I wasn't with my notepad. Excuse me, you didn't expect me to carry my notepad in my small clutch to this obvious expensive dinner. 

Colton is so rich to the extent that he has three other mansions in the city but he said he was never leaving me to stay alone. He's like my back bone. 

"Young lady, do you realize that you have wasted my time" he says checking out my dress. 

He bought me the dress at one of his fashion shows, one of the female models exhibited the dress and he said he loved it. He claimed that he bought it $2000 and I never thought it was a lie. 

"Well I would have continued yelling at you for wasting my time but you looking exceptionally beautiful..... As usual" he says giving me a wink. 

He holds me at the down of my waist and leads me out when he phone rings. He let's out a frustrated grunt and pulls his phone out of his pocket. 

I could not hear the person from the other line, but whatever he or she said, it made him growl which send shivers down my spine.  

"Well tell the damn manager that am not available tonight, I don't fucking care how much I will be losing " he says cutting the line. His face shows pure anger and he pulls me from my waist. 

"Let's go hon" 

I hesitate 

i tap into my phone and show him... "Colton its okay if you have to go, am not mad at all"

"Am so sorry darling, will talk to you later. Wait for me "he says and I nod. He gives me a peck and leaves. 

I  heave a sigh and remove my heels, truthfully, I was looking forward to this dinner. 

I tie my hair up in a messy ponytail and head back to my room to remove my dress. 

I place my phone on my bed and pull down the zip of my gown which was a little hard for me because Colton always helps me with my zips. 

Am in my underwear when my phone beeps and I look down to see a message.
