My family and Baxter’s has never got along, this is such a bad idea.I pace back and forth in my corridor, my mind in turmoil as I try to come up with a way out of this mess, it’s just not fair.With a heavy heart, I decide to confide in my closest friend, Lily. I pick up my phone and dial her number, my hands shaking with nervousness. After a few rings, she picks up.“Hey, girl, what's up?" she says cheerfully."Lily, I need to talk to you. Can you come over?" I ask, my voice barely above a whisper."Of course, I'll be there in a few minutes. Hang in there, okay?" she replies with concern in her voice.Helpless tears stung at the corner of my eyes, I sniffle. “Oh gawd, Ava.” Lily says, “I’m driving to you now.”I nod while swiping the tears off my face and hang up the phone.I decided to make pancakes while I waited for Lily to arrive.

See You Through My Champagne FluteAvaI stand in the middle of my living room in the suburbs of Manhattan, staring down at the cream-colored envelope in my hands. It's addressed to me in elegant calligraphy, and I know before even opening it what it's about. I hesitate for a moment before ripping open the envelope. Inside, I find a handwritten note from Baxter's mother, Caroline, inviting my family and me to a dinner party at their estate the following tomorrow.The next day, I’m sitting in front of my closet, scanning through my clothes, trying to find something appropriate to wear to the dinner party. My heart is not in it, and I can't bring myself to care about the outfit I'll be wearing tonight. I know I'm expected to make an effort, but the thought of spending an evening with Baxter's family, who we've been feuding with for generations, doesn't excite me in the least.I finally settle on a plain black dress and matching heels. I know it's not the most exciting choice, but it wi
Don’t Smirk When I’m Talking to YouAva(Past)I dash to my locker as soon as the last bell sounds and grab my bag. As I consider what is about to occur, my pulse is thumping with anticipation. Baxter, my best friend, is standing outside, and we both know what's going to happen. This has been in the works for days. "Ready?" I grin as I reach him. "Let's do it," he grins back. “Zayn will be soo mad, Bax.” I giggle as we sneaked passed the stoic man father had hire to follow me around.He takes my hand as we walk quickly. “My bodyguard won’t also know I’m gone until the next two hours, by that time, we will be back.”Our hearts are racing as we both sneak out of the school gates and run down the street. We are breaking the rules hanging out together but who cares?Spiderman just came out and we are watching it together. Now was the only time we had.We enter the theater while trying to project a cool demeanor as we provide the cashier with our forged ID, Bax took care of it. I hope h
Arranged Marriage ShockAvaI have just finished my MBA and I'm excited about the future ahead of me. Last night, I partied hard with my friends… and even though it’s almost 3pm the next day, I am still a little bit hangover. I worked hard to get here, and I'm proud of my accomplishments. To continue celebrating my success, I'm having dinner at a fancy restaurant in the city with mom. I sat on the swivel chair scrolling through twitter while I waited for mom.It’s a pleasant surprise when I notice the tall built of father, Maximus Wellington, walking towards my table alone. Father is about 6’0, in his early sixties, already spotting salt and pepper beards, impeccably dressed in a blue tux, advertising him like the successful business tycoon that he is. He’s without mom though, I’m a little disappointed but pleased to see him because I haven't seen him in months."Father, what a surprise!" I say as I stand up to greet him."My sweet Ava,” he says, lightly hugging before pecking both m
