I woke up at my phone alarm, I forgot to turn it off yesterday before I fall asleep. I realized I’m still on vacation coz of my injured ankle. I get my phone to turn off the alarm and I saw I had 10 miscalls from Tamara and 5 miscalls from Isaac. I got a few messages also from them. I read them one by one. I forgot I silenced my phone yesterday. Isaac: Princess, what’s up what’s wrong? Isaac: Princess, are you okay? Isaac: What happened princess, you’re making me worried here. Isaac: Princess. I read Tamara’s message. T: B, Ryle called me are you okay out there? T: you want me to come back? Do you want me to accompany you right now? T: Bettany, answer me. What are you f**king doing, right now? When I read the last message from Tamara, I know she is beyond mad right now. She’s only calling me by my full name when she is that mad at me. I called her to explain everything before she knocks on my door any minute. Ring...Ring... After a few rings, she answered the phone. “Good m
I’m still in the living room engulfed in a deep thought while Isaac cooked in my kitchen. I couldn't believe that Isaac confessed his feelings to me. Is it real or am I still just dreaming? Ring...Ring... A sudden ring of my phone woke me up from my deep thoughts. I saw on my caller I.D. Ryle’s name. I answered it immediately. “Hello, how’s everything there? I’m about to call you but you beat me on it.” “Hey munchkin, a little tired but I’m okay. How are you feeling? how's your ankle? “I’m good don’t worry about me. How’s Hannah? Is she okay now? What actually happened? “Yeah, she’s emotionally stable now. Her parents got into a car accident. Luckily there’s no major surgery just only minor and they’re okay now. She was just shocked when she heard the news and she had a panic attack but everything is okay now.” “That’s great news then, where are you now? “I’m still in the hospital, when I landed I went straight into the hospital. I didn’t see Mom and Dad yet I just informed the
Isaac POV I woke up with a soreness all over my body. I just realized I have fallen asleep on the couch yesterday night while we are watching the movie. I think my body caught up with jet lag and stress. I hope Bettany didn’t mind that I have fallen asleep in the middle of our movie. I’m about to go to the kitchen to prepare some breakfast for Bettany when suddenly her doorbell rang and I was startled. Before I made my way to the door I made sure that I’m presentable enough to the persons behind that door. I opened the door and saw a middle age old couple standing there with different items in their hands. Is Bettany expecting visitors today but she was still asleep at the moment? I’m going to greet them but the old man spoke first. “Who are you? where’s Bettany? “Good morning sir, ma’am, please come in Bettany is still sleeping at the moment. I’m Isaac, Bettany’s neighbor and you could say suitors as well.” I explained to the couple and with my observation, they’re Bettany’s paren
After two weeks of my accident, my ankle healed and I’m back at work again while my parents returned to our home. Isaac started to pursue and show me that his intentions are serious and real. He doesn’t allow me to drive from home to work. We were always having breakfast at my favorite diner before going to the company. When we are at the company I made sure no one sees us. I am still not comfortable when we are at the company. I’m afraid that all employees will look at me differently. It’s also one of the reasons why I couldn't still make up my mind and make it official with Isaac even though I know to myself that I like him more than I should be. Ding...Dong... I opened my door and Isaac was standing outside handsomely in his dark blue suit, looking at me and smiling brightly. “Good morning princess, ready to go? “Yes, let’s go. Ahm, actually I have an early meeting this morning so can we skip the breakfast thing? I hesitantly ask him coz I know he will not going to agree with th
Bettany POV I have a handful scheduled for today. After I had lunch with my team, I went back to the office again to finalize all the materials that will be needing for our book opening this coming week. I still need to attend two more meetings before I go to the dinner with Isaac and his sister. It’s our official meeting with each other but here I am still busy at my work. I don’t even have time to prepare myself or to buy a gift for her. I will gonna worry about it later. Isaac informed me that he will go to the airport to pick up his sister. I couldn’t reply to him coz I’m in the middle of my meeting. I’m down to my last meeting and after that, I am free to go to the restaurant we agreed to meet. I requested Carol to bring me clothes so I could change them before meeting Isaac and his sister. I’m really anxious now what if Isaac's sister wouldn't like me? I know Isaac and me are still not officially in a relationship but I wanted to have a good impression on her. They mostly said
We arrived at my apartment and I let Avery stay in one of my guest’s rooms. It’s a timing that tomorrow will be a weekend and Tamara will be visiting me in town. We have time to do the list of what I and Avery wanted. I’m also excited for Tamara and Avery to meet each other. Based on Avery’s personality I’m sure they will like each other. They are both crazy about other things and foodies like us. We were in my living room having a good tea when Isaac started a conversation with his sister. “Bub, I will let you stay here but once I learn that you stress Bettany I will come and get you.” Isaac sternly reminded her sister. “Hey, what am I a kid? I’m a grown-up lady now, so you don’t need to worry. Bettany and I will have a blast day ahead of us without you.” “Make sure of it. Avoid making any trouble coz you're not in our home. By the way, I can't accompany you tomorrow Jeff needed me at the office. You could find me at the company if you want, then after my work, we can go out.” “D
I woke up from the ring of my alarm clock. I set it yesterday night before I slept coz I'm worried I wouldn't wake up early coz it's a weekend. I need to prepare breakfast before Avery could wake up. I checked my phone if Isaac has message me already. Isaac: Good morning princess, I can't accompany both you and Avery for breakfast. I have an early international conference at the office to attend. Just inform me where we going for lunch and I will be there later. After I read Isaac's message I wanted to call him but I hesitated coz I'm afraid he is in the middle of the meeting right now. So, I just settled to send him a reply. Me: Good morning Isaac, It's okay no big deal for that. Don't forget to have breakfast as well, I will inform you later about the lunch. Don't tire yourself too much. I went out of my bedroom after I sent the message to Isaac and headed to my kitchen to prepare my and Avery's breakfast. I decided to make a blueberry pancake, bacon, egg, and sausages. After a f
We're already going inside the restaurant while we're still waiting for Isaac. Avery and Tamara chatted animatedly while I check the menu and decided to order for all of us. I called the waiter and place our order. When the waiter left I send Isaac a message asking where he is. Me: Hey where ru? We're already at the restaurant and I already ordered some food, is that okay with you? Isaac replied immediately. Isaac: I'm on my way. 5 mins I'll be there. It's okay I'm not a picky eater anyway. After I read Isaac's message Tamara got my attention. "B, did you think of a plan for prince charming birthday? "Hmm, since Isaac doesn't want to celebrate it I was thinking why not just have an intimate family dinner and give him a warm and memorable day." "So how you will do that? any specific plan? "Let's talk about it more later, any minute Isaac will be here". "Okay." The waiter served our food and at the same time, Isaac arrived with Jeff and they both find they're seats. Isaac seat
