Isabella's pov;"What exactly are you doing here?" While I was serving the customers, I asked Mr Martinez."Of course, for eating." And slid onto the seat.Since he was at my table, I took his order and murmured, "Don't eat outside very much."Suddenly, he kissed my cheeks and whispered, "Thank you for being concerned about me, but how will I see you then?"Out of shyness, I dashed to the restroom after giving the orders at the service area. What made him suddenly kiss me? I should have become angry at him, but instead I ran over here. When I looked in the mirror, my cheeks and ears were as red as Tomato. You are not a teen! Stop getting shy just from an unexpected kiss! I got out of the bathroom after washing my face when I heard a knock on the door.When I was going to leave after serving Mr Martinez, he looked around and commented, "Looks like you're getting a lot of customers.""Since the CEO of Skyland corporation started eating here, many people have been here to try it.""Am I
Isabella's pov;Mike, "I think I made a decent decision in keeping him here.""What?"While he was handing me the meal in the service area, Olivia called him back to the kitchen. What made him say that?I served the food to the customers after bringing it out of the kitchen. The couple who received the food from me, both laughed and glanced at me. Is it my imagination or are they laughing at me?Emily brought me to the counter and said, "I know you were married recently and have a great husband, but do you have to flaunt it like this?" "How many times do I have to advise you not to refer to him in that manner?"She put her hand on my neck and whispered, "Listen to me, Do you want all of our customers to know what a wonderful night you had?""What!?"I dashed to the restroom to see what it was. When I looked at my neck, I thought, "A hickey?" Can he really do this to me? Now I see why everyone was staring at me. I'm humiliated. I'll start by changing my shirt.When I exited the restro
Isabella's pov;While he was driving the car, he seemed upset. What exactly did I just do? Is it possible that I disturbed him as a result of my fear? He was overjoyed in the morning that we were going out, but now his face is expressionless."Mr Martinez?""Yeah?" asked while he was driving the car. "What is tubing?""It's similar to sledding, but you ride on the top of an inner tube.""Will I be able to roll down the hill in tubing if it's like sledding?"He smiled and replied, "No, you will not. The sled has a flat surface, so you can jump out of it, whereas tubing requires you to submerge half of your body into the tube, so you can avoid falling.""Really? I can ride without rolling down the hill?""Yes.""Take me there. I'd like to give it a shot.""Okay."We eventually got to tubing.When I looked around, I noticed people in tubes rolling down the hill. Some were racing with others, while some were fighting with their mates on the tubes. It appeared odd and funny. "Shall we go
Isabella's pov;Finally, we arrived at the restaurant.I got out of the car and went to the restaurant. Mr Martinez grabbed my hand just as i was about to open the door, causing me to turn and stare at him."What is it?""Aren't you going to give me a kiss before you go in?""Why should I?""Because people who are dating kiss before they part.""Duh! We both share the same residence.""Let's do it like a genuine date," he murmured, taking my hand in his."Okay." I asked Mr Martinez to approach me. When Mr Martinez came closer, I grabbed his collar and pressed my lips against his and parted away.Mr Martinez, "Do you call that a kiss?""I'm exhausted. Go away."When I tried to enter the restaurant, He drew me into a deep kiss that included our tongues. I resisted at first, but I let things go with the flow because I was always drawn to his deep kisses. He licked my lips to get into my mouth, and once inside, our tongues rubbed and twisted against each other. While his tongue was ruling
Isabella's pov;"If you're serving clients on the weekend, who's going to perform today?" While I was receiving their orders, one of the regulars inquired."We didn't have anything planned for today. We have a tight schedule because Christmas is approaching, so we're preparing for that."They conveyed their menu by nodding. I heard someone strumming the guitar strings while I was shouting out orders in the kitchen. Maybe it was in my head, so I kept giving the meal orders. Someone was singing in the diner. I came out of the kitchen to see who it was.Mr Martinez sat in the chair, holding my guitar, and singing on the raised stage where I perform for my clients every weekend. Is Mr Martinez singing? I was astounded after hearing Mr Martinez's singing, he has a wonderful voice. Wow. What a gentle and charming voice he has. Everyone began shouting and taking pictures of him singing.When the previous song concluded, he said into the microphone, "The next song will be a dedication song fo
Isabella's pov;On Christmas Day,"Isabella…" Who is calling my name so delicately?"Huhhh…""Wake up, Isabella," they said, their palm touching my cheek."Whyyy…"When I opened my eyes, Mr Martinez kissed me on the cheek and whispered, "Wake up. It's time to open the diner.""What time is it?" I massaged my eyes."10.""What!? Did I sleep in? What day is it?""It's Christmas. Did you forget about it? You were decorating the restaurant the day before.""Did you just f*ck me on the day before Christmas?""It's called making love," he replied, flicking my brow."Whatever." "Arghhh!" I exclaimed when I attempted to sit. I felt a sharp pain in my back.Mr Martinez raced up to me and grabbed my hands, asking, "What happened?"I tapped him on the shoulder and said, "It's all thanks to you. Why did you do it after I told you it was enough? Are you a moron? Did you not hear me? Argh…""Shall I call a doctor if it's too painful?" he inquired as he helped me sit."Take me to the restroom.

Isabella's pov;One year later,Dylan, "What exactly are you doing here? What if Alexander scolds us if he sees you serving?""Sitting idle in the room is boring.""I understand how difficult it is to win against you. At the very least, be cautious with the tables.""Got it!" I gave a thumbs up with a smile and continued serving the customers."Enjoy the Breakfast," I murmured as I set the food on the table with a big grin on my face."How many weeks?" one of the customers asked, pointing to my tummy."14 weeks," I murmured, looking at my large tummy."Is it a boy or a girl?""We have an appointment today.""Good luck," she said brightly and continued eating her food.I smiled at her after giving a nod.I approached the desk and dialled Alexander's number."Where the hell are you?""I'll be there in a few minutes.""You said that ten minutes ago.""I'm nearly there."He hung up the phone.Emily inquired, "Don't be upset. This is not good for the baby.""I try, but he's not letting me.
Chapter - 1"I believed University would be so much better than High school and I could be independent. Believe me, it wasn't at all. I never ran late to school, even if I did, I got punishments like helping out the teachers, standing outside the classroom, picking litter around the school building, but I never had punishment like getting detention, suspension, or kneeling in front of seniors. Actually, the punishment is supposed to be learning from our mistakes, but here they're making us suffer for breaking the rules. In school, we had theory classes, physical education classes and my basketball practice. I never felt tired because of it. But here, we only have three hours of classes a day but I'm already feeling exhausted. In school, I had a test per week but here, they're giving us a test almost every day and to add to that, they're giving us assignments and seminars and worksheets. Woah! I don't even remember when I last slept peacefully. When I was in school, I'll do my assig

Isabella's pov;When I first walked inside the restaurant, I was startled by the bursting sound, which caused me to jump in the air. When I opened my eyes, which had been closed due to the sound's force, colourful confetti rained down all over the room, even on me."Congratulations, Bella!" Everyone yelled at the same time."What exactly is this? Is it true that our restaurant made the news?" I inquired of them, unsure of what was going on."Stop thinking about the restaurant all the time," Emily murmured with a brush of her hand over my brow."Then what is the point of the celebration?"A voice from behind me replied. "It's a wedding present for you." It was Dylan who I saw as I turned around.Emily took my hand in hers and pointed to my ring finger, saying, "You claimed you were going to a friend's wedding, but you actually went to get married. Here's where we need an explanation."They all nodded in unison when I looked at them."Is it true that you're working against me? I'm the o

And placed the glasses for Carlos and Jack.Carlos took a look around and asked, "How's your restaurant now? You changed the decor?""Yeah, I wanted some change and the restaurant is getting back on track. When we explained it to the people, some believed us and some didn't. Our regulars spoke for the restaurant and tweeted many good things about the restaurant. As a result, we started getting customers even though it's a small amount but it's good. We're catching up. By the way, Why didn't you bring Leah with you?" "She's still in her hometown. What about Gia? Did you call her?""Yeah, I did. She said she's on a business trip." And drinked from my glass.Zoey, "Bella, Can I leave? I have a class to attend tomorrow.""Yeah, yeah. Just go. I'll take care of it."After Zoey left, I said to Carl
