"Oh my God. Thank you so much for showing up! Especially to you, Aurora. I know you have a lot of things to do."

I shook my head and smiled at her. "It's fine. Besides, I already finished all the tasks that I need to do with my team today."

"Really? By the way, can I ask about your job? I mean, if you don't mind?"

"U-Uh... I'm a PR leader."

She nodded her head as she sipped some of the white wine that their restaurant serves. "Really? That's good then. You must be good at your work since Timothy is so hardworking."

"Y-You're right."

As soon as we arrived here a while ago, I couldn't help but feel nervous and awkward. Amelie didn't come with us since one of her friends invited her for a birthday party. I also wanted to refuse to go with Timothy, but I had no choice and I don't want him to think that I don't like Dennise.

"You know, you don't have to be nervous and feel awkward around me. I hope we can be friends, Aurora." Dennise suddenly said while looking directly into my eyes as i

    Liam brought me to the Central Park. Good thing it wasn't that crowded and the people were busy minding their businesses. "Why did you bring me here?" I asked him as we walked through the park. " Because it's peaceful here. Well, there are days when this park if filled with people. It's weekday, so I know it wouldn't be crowded." The park was tranquil and filled with trees. It seems like it's so far from the bustling city of New York. "So, are you jealous of that woman?" Liam suddenly asked. I didn't look at him. I kept my head down while walking. "Why am I even asking? Of course, you are jealous. He's your husband and you are supposed to be the one who gets his attention." "That woman is his first love. He loved her more than anyone else." "More than you?" I didn't speak. I don't even know what to say. Timothy is not my real husband, so I don't even know if I have the right to demand an attention from him. After all, he just married me for convenience. And I married hi

    Timothy's POV "S-See you later," Aurora said to me before she stepped out of my car. As soon as she got inside their company building, I started the engine of my car again and drove away. She told us she was just going to the restroom yesterday, but she didn't come back. Then she came home later with that man again. They even looked so happy when I saw them outside my house. Now I can't even look at her. "How's Aurora?" Dennise asked me. "She told me they had an emergency at work yesterday, that is why she didn't get to say goodbye to us." Dennisse nodded her head while unpacking the lunchboxes that she brought to my office for me. "Really? Oh, maybe that was really important." "Uhm." "Wait, don't tell me you got mad at her?" I averted my gaze from her. "It's impossibe for me not to get mad when she didn't even bother calling me." "But she already said it was urgent, right? That is an acceptable excuse." "Still, she had the chance to call me so she won't need to have some o

    Aurora's POV"You know what? I'm really glad we can hang out together today." Dennise said to me with a smile on her face that made her look even more beautiful.She was wearing a pink dress and her hair was in half up half down. She looked so beautiful like a celebrity. I nodded my head as I smiled at her, too. "Me too."Timothy who was the one who planned this. He told me that we will be having a coffee together, but it turns out it's Dennise I will be having a coffee with. "So, where do you want to go first?" she asked me again."I-I don't really go out, so I am not that knowledgeable about the beautiful places we can go to...""Oh, I see. That's not a problem. I know where to go!" she said cheerfully as she clung her hand around my left arm. "Let's go?"I nodded my head with a smile. "Okay."We first went to the mall since Dennise told me she wanted to buy some new clothes first. She really is so careful whenever she chooses dresses that she will buy. "How about you, Aurora? Ar

    I got surprised as I stepped inside the office and the lights were off and the blinds were closed. "Happy Birthday, Miss Aurora!" All of a sudden, the lights turned on and I saw my colleagues gathered together on a corner while Rebecca was holding a cake with three candles on it. "Happy birthday, Miss Aurora! Blow your candles now!" they cooed. "Thank you so much, guys!" I said as I walked over to them and blew the candles. Since we didn't have that much to do today, we finished all of our works and I decided to treat them all outside. "Miss Aurora, what did your handsome husband gave you?" Rebecca suddenly asked me. "For sure that would be an expensive one knowing that Timothy Lockwood is her husband." added Claire. I just smiled at them. Actually, Timothy doesn't know that it's my birthday today and I didn't tell him either. Besides, he is busy with his work and I don't think it's that important to inform him about it. 'I'll pick you up. I'm with Amelie."' Timothy suddenly

    Timothy's POV I lifted Dennise in my arms and started walking to her room. I carefully put her on her bed then took off her sandals. "Tim..." she whispered as she looked at me with misty eyes. "Hmm?" "Are you going to leave now?" I put her sandals on a corner as I stood up again. "I already asked Amelie and Aurora to go home. Is there someone I can call to accompany you here?" She shook her head and averted her gaze. "I don't have anyone. I don't have friends..." "How about your mom?" "She will get mad at me if she sees me like this. They only want me to be the perfect daughter for them. The daughter who can only make them proud and not the daughter who drinks and wastes her time doing stupid things." she laughed sarcastically. "Dennise..." Suddenly, she sat up and looked at me again. "Don't leave me here, Tim...Please?" "Okay. I'll just go straight to my office tomorrow." "Thank you..." I nodded my head. "I'll just get something from my car. Would you like me to get

I'm really sorry to disturb you, but can we talk after your work? It's really important."I squinted at my watch before speaking again. "O-Okay. Where should I meet you?" "At the Honey Bear coffee shop. I'll wait for you there.""Okay."Before I could even speak again, Dennise already ended the call. I wonder what's that important thing that she wants to tell me. As I was about to sit on my swivel chair, I received a text message from Timothy saying that he would pick me up later and we'll have our dinner outside.Dennise said it is important. 'I'm sorry, I can't make it tonight. I actually have a lot of work to do. Maybe you can just eat out with Amelie?'***"I'm sorry I'm late. Have you been waiting here?" I asked Dennise as soon as I arrived at the coffee shop. She shook her head and smiled at me. She was wearing a baby blue

    Aurora's POV"Do you still remember when we were kids? I used to tease you a lot because you were a big-eater." Klein said to me while we were eating ice cream. He decided to treat me some since he said I looked like crying already.I laughed. "Uh-huh. Well, I'm still a big-eater, though. You can still call me like that.""And you can also call me the catboy.""Uh-huh. Because you always sleep in class. But really, I only teased you because I was so envious of how smart you are. Even though you sleep in our classes all the time, you still get the highest scores in our exams." I pouted, "And, I only teased you a lot back then because I had a huge crush on you. You know, kids tend to tease their crush a lot just so they would notice them.""You're right. If only we could go back to being our young selves." I heaved a sigh as I leaned on the bench and looked up at the sky. Klein looked at me. "By the way, how are you now? What keeps you busy nowadays?" "I work as a PR manager now. How

    Aurora's POV I wore a pink sweater and a black plaid skirt then I put on the hairpin that Timothy gave me. He and Amelie were sitting on the couch at the living room waiting for me. "I'm sorry, it took me an hour to get ready." I said. "You look so beautiful, Aurora! And you're wearing a skirt!" Amelie cooed while looking at me. My face blushed even more when Timothy looked at me then smiled. "Amelie's right." "T-Thanks." The first place we went to was at the amusement park as Amelie suggested. "I want to ride the Roller Coaster!" Amelie cooed while pointing at the roller coaster with the people riding it screaming in thrill. "Sure, let's try that!" I said. I looked at Timothy and got surprised when I saw him looking so pale while staring at the Roller Coaster. "A-Are you alright, Timothy?" "H-Huh?" "Are you alright? Do you want to ride the Roller Coaster?" "He's afraid of heights." Amelie suddenly declared which made Timothy widen his eyes at her. "Is that true?" His ear

Am I as beautiful as you?"She nodded her head and smiled. "Yes, mommy. I think you're more beautiful than me.""Of course, not. You are the most beautiful. You're even way beautiful than mommy," I said as I pinched both of her cheeks."Well, you're both beautiful. Stop acting like you don't look exactly like each other. Also Aurora, you need to prepare yourself now because we're heading to the church and you'll finally meet your soon-to-be husband," my mom said to me which made all of us laugh.Today is the day I will be marrying the love of my life.

    It's been a week now since I introduced Timothy as Thera's father. They've been so happy together and Timothy keeps on going to our house to see Thera. His parents also knew about it and they were so happy when they saw Thera, too. All of my fears suddenly vanished when I hugged Timothy's parents. I have realized that maybe I was just overthinking when I thought they would take my daughter away from me if I told them about her. "Mommy! Daddy is here!" Thera told me while I was washing the dishes one morning. "Really? Okay, you can play together then."Suddenly, Timothy showed up. He was wearing a black turtle neck and pants and he looked handsome as ever. "Aurora, can we go to the amusement park together? I mean, the three of us?""H-Huh? B-But I still haven't taken a bath.""It's alright. We can wait for you. Right, Thera?""Yes! We can play outside while waiting for you, mommy!"I smiled. "Really? Then alright.

"It's been a long time, Auntie and Uncle.""What is happening here, Aurora?" Dad asked me. "Dad, I already told Timothy about the truth. He already knows it," I said. "Y-You already know?" Mom asked Timothy.Timothy nodded his head with a smile on his face. "I already knew it since the first time I saw Thera. I was just waiting for Aurora to admit it."I thought mom and dad would be mad at me, but then huge smile appeared on their faces the moment they heard what Timothy just said. "That's good to hear then. You don't know how long Thera had been waiting for this day to come. Wait, does that also mean the two of you are back together again?" mom suddenly asked. Timothy looked at me, so I immediately spoke. "N-No.""Oh, I see. Wait, should I call Thera now? Are we going to tell her now?" "Can I go there and introduce myself to her?" Tim

    Timothy's POVI am definitely sure that child is my child. I know Aurora and I know she was lying when she told me she had a relationship with somebody else. I kept waiting outside the school of Aurora's daughter until I finally saw her. I was about to go near her, but then Aurora suddenly appeared and held the child's hand. She really made sure I wouldn't be able to get close to our daughter. "Good afternoon!" I said to both of them with a huge smile on my face. Aurora's eyes widened upon seeing me. I smirked at her then I knelt down in front of the child. "Hello there, Thera, right? My name is Timothy, but you can call me Uncle Timothy if you want to.""Hello, Uncle Timothy! It's nice to meet you! What are you doing here?" she asked me.God, she looks exactly like Aurora. She is so beautiful, just like her mom.

    I was about to drive away together with Thera, but then Timothy suddenly blocked our way. I tried to escape, but he was too stubborn and didn't really leave. I rolled down the window of the car and yelled. "Can you just please leave?! Get out of my way!""I won't leave unless you talk to me, Aurora!""There is nothing we need to talk about!""There is! Especially about that kid!"I tried making him leave again, but still, he didn't listen to me."Mommy, why don't you talk to him? Are you mad at him?" Thera asked me confusingly. "Honey, I can't talk to him. I-I don't even know him," I lied."But he won't leave, mommy. I think you need to talk to him."In the end, I had no choice but to give up. I looked at Thera who was sitting beside me. "Honey, just wait for mommy here. I'm just going to talk to that man for a while, okay?" "Okay, mommy. I will wait for you here.""Thank you, sweetheart."I took a deep breathe before finally getting off the car. "Now, what do you want to talk abo

    'Aurora's POV I let out a deep sigh as soon as I stopped the car in front of our house. I still haven't gotten inside and was just staring into a blank space inside my car. I just saw Timothy a while ago. He looked a bit different, but more handsome than ever. When I met his eyes, my heart started beating so fast. I didn't even know how I would react, that is why I just decided to leave him there alone. How can he still have the same impact to me after all this time? The way he looked at me and the way he made me feel nervous is still the same. I thought he already found someone new, but based on how he acted a while ago, I don't think he already did. Does that mean he really waited for me to come back? "Mommy!" Thera welcomed we with a warm hug as soon as I stepped inside our house. "Hello there, sweetheart... Why aren't you asleep yet?" I asked while patting her head."I was waiting for you, mommy..." I touched her on the cheek then lifted her up in my arms. "Oh, my sweet b

So, she has forgotten about me already?Ugh! I can't stop thinking about her! I have to find her as soon as possible! I was massaging my temples when my phone started ringing. It was a call from Dennise."You're thinking about Aurora again?" Dennise said as soon as I answered her call. "I just can't help it. I need to confirm if that was really her.""Then why don't you confirm it yourself? I invited her for dinner tonight. Why don't you come, too?"My eyes widened in surprise. "Y-You invited her?""Uh-huh.

I will always forgive you.""Thank you, my sweetheart...""Mommy.""Huh?""I bumped into a handsome man a while ago before you found me," she started narrating. "A handsome man?

That is all thanks to you and your dedication!" dad said to me while we were having dinner in their mansion. "You are right, honey. Timothy really did a great job during the past five years!" mom added.I shook my head while smiling. "You know that wouldn't happen if not also because of our employees and investors. I'm not the only one who is to be thrown those compliments of yours.""Well, you are at the top. I never really regret assigning you as the CEO of our company.""Thanks, dad.""I wonder when you will be getting married, though. You know, you are not getting any younger. You have to have someone who will take care of you. Also, we already want grandchildren from you," said mommy. I laughed. "That would be most unlikely to happen.
