I stretched my whole body after sitting on the ground for 4 hours straight to finish my latest novel. After a lot of thinking and debating with myself how to end the love story for this novel, I ended up giving the characters a nice ending in Paris with a romantic proposal just like every romance novel out there.
I walked out from my room to make myself a coffee and walked towards the balcony to see the beautiful night lights of New York city. I sipped my coffee slowly to prevent my tongue from burning and I sat down on my bean bag looking up to the sky hoping that I can see beautiful stars today.
Last week my publisher, Amy, asked me if I want to do a meet and greet to reveal myself in public but I refused it right away. She said that a lot of my fans requested that they want to meet the famous 'Elena Parker' but as much as I love interacting with them but revealing myself to the public is a no no. I've been hiding myself ever since my mom died and that was 7 years ago. I've been trying to overcome that but I think I still can't move on.
I can't deal with something like that to be honest, I can't deal with heartbreaks, death and everything that deals with separation. I can't deal with it, that's why I don't really want to connect with people because for me, at the end of the day, everyone will leave and they will never come back.
That's why I made 'Elena Parker', she's famous, crazy for love and a really good novelist with 5 best seller romance books of all times. For me, faking myself as Elena Parker was a shield for me. I wanted to hide myself from the world but at the same time I want the world to notice me.
Suddenly my phone rang and I got up from my beanbag walking back inside. I took my phone and looked at the screen to see my brother, Stefan, calling me. I pressed the green button and put it on loudspeaker.
"Yes, your majesty." I answered it in a sarcastic tone.
"Don't give me that tone, young lady." He hissed right away.
"What do you want?"
"Let's have dinner together tomorrow, it's your birthday." He said excitedly.
"I'm busy."
"I'll pick you up at 7 and you better dress up because we're going to have the fanciest dinner for your 25th birthday. Dad will go straight to the restaurant so you can't complain about this, young lady." He said and I sighed.
"Stop calling me that.." I hissed.
"I will, if you agree to go have dinner with us."
"Fine."
"See you tomorrow." He said and he ended the call. I put my coffee down on the table and turned on the TV. I connected my netflix to the TV to watch my favorite movie of all times, 13 going 30.
Before I can finish the movie, I fell asleep on the sofa. That's my habit, I can sleep anywhere in any situation. I got up because someone rang on my door. I got up immediately and walked towards the door. I opened it and found a cake from my publisher company. I picked it up and brought it in.
It's just another year, birthday doesn't mean anything to me. It's just the day where you have your age increase one digit. I walked towards my room with my phone and there's already tons of messages from my fans on my i*******m sending me love for my birthday. My dad and my brother left me a message too but I'll just reply them later.
I went back to sleep because that's the perks of being a writer. You can write and rest whenever you want.
I got up again and it's already 5 o'clock in the evening. I got up and dragged myself towards the bathroom. I took a shower and dried myself quickly. I curled my hair and put it into a low bun. I put on my favorite earrings and put on my makeup after that. I walked towards my closet and decided to wear my long black dress with a slit on my left leg.
I checked on the time and it's already 6.45 and I took my phone cursing it seeing the battery. I took my power bank and charged it. I took my Gucci bag and put all my stuff inside. I walked out and put on my black CL heels.
My phone rang and I know it's my brother. I walked out of my house and go straight down to the lobby. I saw my brother's car parked in front of the lobby and he opened the window smirking. I got into the car and put my seatbelt on right away.
"Happy birthday, little sis." He said as he patted my hand and I nodded.
"Thanks."
"You know.. you should find a boyfriend this year." He always said that every year.
"Just drive.." I said coldly.
"That's why you never have a boyfriend, Rosie. You need to get a life, stop locking your ass in your room." I rolled my eyes.
"Shut up.. it's my birthday so don't give me lecture about my life or I will go back." I hissed coldly and yes I'm that cold towards my brother but he never understands it.
"Fine.." He said and he suddenly trying to pull something out from his pocket. When he succeed, he put the small envelope in front of me.
"1.000 dollars for you to have fun and get drunk.. go wild and get a life." He said as he gave me a check.
"I have my own money."
"It's my birthday present to you, take it." He said and I took it. I put it into my clutch and after 15 minutes of car ride, we arrived at the restaurant. We got inside and Stefan told the waiter his name and with that she lead us to the private room. She opened the door for us and my dad already sitting there.
"Hey pumpkin pie, happy birthday." He said as he hugged me and kissed my forehead.
"Thanks dad." I smiled at him and we all sat down. We ordered our food and after that my dad put a small box in front of me.
"Your birthday present, open it." He smiled and I turned to Stefan for a moment before open the black box. I opened it and I gasped automatically.
"Dad.."
"I found it when I was cleaning my room. It was on my drawer and I thought you want to have it."
"Thankyou." I smiled widely and looked down on the necklace. It was my mom's, it was her favorite necklace. I asked Stefan to put it on me.
"I know that you really miss your mom and it's been 7 years. You should go back to the old Rosie again, don't you think?" My dad asked me in a really careful tone.
"It's not easy and I don't think I can."
"How about you introduce her to your friends' son, dad?" My brother asked and I smacked his arm hard.
"I don't need a boyfriend." I hissed coldly at him.
"That's a good idea. I mean.. they don't need to be your boyfriend, how about finding a friend?" My dad smiled and I shook my head.
"No thanks." I said and after that there's a knock on the door before the waiter brought all the food in. I was kinda glad that I decided to go have a family dinner because I do miss my dad and my brother but it was hard for me to express that.
Roseanne West"Are you ready for my vows?" Ares asked and I looked at him suspicious. I nodded and I turned to the priest nervously because I'm so afraid that Ares will say something stupid."Honey.. baby.. my love.. my beautiful lovely Roseanne West.. We met in a really crazy way at first. I don't need to tell the details to all of the people in the church especially in front of Jesus." He said and everyone laughed. I face palmed myself completely embarrassed."We started our relationship roughly and then I started to fall for you each day even though you hella cold and act like I'm a deadly virus. After that, we started to share our journey together through up and down and man.. at last I got you on my palm." He smirked and I chuckled looking at his expression."
Ares Collin"I do." I said in front of the mirror."I do." And again.."I do." Again for the 150 times or maybe more.."Yes, I do." I practiced again."I, Ares Collin accept Roseanne West to be-""Honey, you've been practicing that all day long." Rosie walked into the bathroom and I looked at her flatly."I'm practicing so I won't be nervous tomorrow." I said and Rosie slipped her arms around my hips from the back."You're cute." She said as she smiled at me through the mirror."I do." I said in singing it and Rosie laughed.
Roseanne West"Hey.. you'll do great." Ares smiled at me and I nodded nervously. It's less than a minute before the MC will call me out. Ares gave me a kiss on my cheek and at the same time the MC called me to go on stage."Goodluck honey." Ares said and I nodded. I walked to the stage and my eyes widen to see a lot of people coming. I smiled widely and waved my hands to them. I turned on the mic and the MC asked me to sit down."Good afternoon, everyone!" I greeted them and they all cheered for me. I'm so touched and so.. happy. I'm so glad that I decided to do this. My dad, my brother, Carrie and Ares' parents came too and they were all so supportive towards me."Please introduce yourself." The MC said, smiling at me and she gestured to me to see the audience.
Roseanne West10 months later.."Babe.. have you seen my harddisk?" I asked Ares because I couldn't find it."Have you check your laptop bag or maybe your work bag?" He answered from the room. I quickly walked to the kitchen because I put my bag there earlier when I got home. I checked my bag and I found it.I just got home from an important meeting. Just like I said around 10 months ago that I promised that I will reveal myself if I'm done writing my new book. Tomorrow will be the publishing day and they already prepared a meet and greet.I was so nervous and they gave me all the details into my harddisk so I need to go all of that tonight. Ares still don't know that I'm Elena Parker and I'm planning to drag him t
Roseanne WestNever in my life.. I've even thought that someone will successfully break all my walls. I made this invisible walls around me to protect myself from being hurt. People come and go.. and that's reality, I know that but.. I never imagined that it would be so easy to break it.This is why I always avoid people trying to get close to me because I know there's a possibility that they can break my walls easily and then leave me.Now, I'm sitting in front of Ares and telling him that I'm giving up. I'm done trying to keep my walls up, I'm done trying to protect myself and I'm surrendering my heart to him. It seems so fast for him but.. he's just everything. He made me happy, he made me feel special, he made me love myself and he helped me move on even though I always hate that idea.
Roseanne WestAfter I packed my small bag for another extra clothes to go to the beach, Ares called me telling me to go up to his apartment. I dropped everything and went up right away. I pressed his doorbell and he opened the door for me."Is everything okay?" I asked and he nodded. He gestured to me go inside and he got the dogs back. I kneeled down and the dogs ran towards me. I was so excited to see them. I can't believe he kept his dogs at his parents house because he's not finished moving in fully but now he is."Oh my god.." I turned to Ares and he smiled."For you." He suddenly gave me a bouquet of flowers. I got up and took the flower."Thankyou.." I said."Ready to go to t
Roseanne WestWhen Ares slowly turned his body away from me, I turned on the lamp beside my side of the bed. I took my iPad from the table and started to continue to write my book.Break up.What if.. maybe in the future.. we break up? Will I be okay? Will he be okay? Will everything be the same or I will have the same breakdown?I hate to think about it but.. it's something that I have to.. risk in the future. Saying yes to date him was a really big deal to me.I kept writing and writing my book when suddenly Ares turned his body facing me. I smiled looking at him. He surprised me by coming early and even came to the set to be with me. I caressed his head and kissed his forehead.H
Ares CollinRosie is currently staring at my hand and looking at it like she's observing it for some reason. She suddenly put his hand slowly on mine and then she intertwined her fingers with mine. I chuckled seeing her being so curious and just trying to express her feelings."Aren't you tired?" She asked me suddenly as she put the left over crust to the empty pizza box."Yeah." I answered honestly and I turned to her. She's already looking at me and she smiled."Take a shower and go to sleep.. I'll take this out." She said as she tried to pull her hand away from mine. I held her hand tightly making her confused and she tried again but I shook my head."You're tired.. your e
Roseanne WestAfter eating real quick, we walked back towards the building. We walked inside and guest what? Bryan bumped into us at the front door."Hi, you must be Rosie's boyfriend." Bryan started the conversation."Yes, I am. You are?" Ares answered in a cold tone but still manage to be polite."I'm Bryan Rodes, the producer here and Rosie's uhmm we knew each other." Bryan said nervously."Everyone, let's continue!" Sarah called us in."I have to go.. you'll wait here right?" I asked Ares and he nodded."Okay.. go in there." Ares smiled to me and gave me a peck on my lips. I walked inside the auditioning room again and sat next beside John. Bryan
