Isabella's pov;"No letter is present! not sophisticated knowledge! not an account! Nothing was present. Where did you go during this time? What did you do during that time? Charlotte covered both of the shifts for you since you weren't present. She deserves your gratitude for accomplishing that for you. Your home address, phone number, or anything else is unknown to us. Even though this place doesn't hire outsiders, I accepted you to work here because you're my brother's friend. And, how do you repay it?" Becky questioned me."I apologise.""I'm not in need of your excuse. If you weren't there during your shifts, please provide a valid explanation. Where have you been?""My... Actually, I didn't want to say this as an excuse but I want to be honest. My mother underwent surgery recently so I took care of her. Since I got upset with my mother, I drank a lot of booze and got alcohol poisoning. I needed some time to recover from it. Guess, I took a pretty long time. I'm sorry, Becky." Be

Isabella's pov;"How far along are you with getting ready for your final exam?" Noah asked me a question while I was unpacking my books out of my bag fors Devlins hour.I replied to him, "Ah! I didn't even think about that.""What do you mean by that? You speak as though you're just getting started," Sophia said to me.I glanced over to Sophia and replied, "Yup!""Are you really aware of the exam? This is what gets you to college or did you plan to stay in high school for one more year?"Everyone moved back to their positions as Ms. Devlin entered the classroom. Escaped! I let out a sigh of relief.After the session, I put my books back inside my bag and tried to leave for the next class, but my friends surrounded and gawked at me.I asked, "What?""Come to the study session with us." Evelyn ordered."Whaaat? No!"Sophia said, "Basketball can help you score points, but it won't help you achieve excellent grades."Noah responded with wide eyes, "Really? You might have chosen a different

Isabella's pov;"Go on."While Harry was looking and waiting for a response from me, I sighed and began to search for an explanation. However, I lack any. I said it because I wanted to get away from him and didn't realise he would wait all day and catch me while I was practising basketball.I asked him, "For you, wasn't it getting late? I mean, it's 5:00 p.m. You should have left for home by now, right?""Nah! I already informed my driver that I'll be late today, so it's fine with me.""I… I…""Are you proposing to this guy?" Ikea questioned me after hitting me with a ball.She rejected my attempt to hurl the ball over her face and asked Harry, "Why does your face look familiar to me?"Harry answered, "You probably saw me in the noticeboard and the school's official website displaying mine and Isabella's…"I interrupted him before he could continue and said to Ikea, "Don't you already have practise? I remember that there is still time for practice, therefore I should return to the matc

Isabella's pov;I said to Harry who was on a call with me, "I waited to call you first, but I was afraid you wouldn't pick up after what had happened, so I didn't. You called me, which surprised me.""I enjoy hearing you speak in this manner. Is this how you communicate with your friends?" Harry inquired."Yeah, but why?""It feels like you're being yourself when you speak like this, and you've started to like me back, right?""No!"He never passed up an opportunity. I chuckled in secret. "I was kidding but not really kidding," he said, laughing.Suddenly, Ethan barged into my room while I was on the phone with Harry.Ethan asked me, "Who's on the line, Bella?""I'll talk to you tomorrow," I told Harry. And then I ended the call. Ethan ran up to me, hugged me, and asked, "Is that your boyfriend? Did I come in the middle of your romance?""He's… It's complicated.""Okay. I've got it!""Hey! I forgot to inquire about it. Why did you hug me without my concern?"He clasped both of my han

Isabella's pov;"Hello, Tori!"I waved my hand at Victoria, who was cleaning the glasses with a cloth behind the stand.I continued, "I forgot to ask you before, do you only serve customers here or do you also serve VIPs?""Only the customers in this area. The boss told me that I needed to learn more before serving them. Hey! Have you heard about the new member? He appears to be cool and handsome, but he is younger than me. Not a chance to flirt.""FYI. You also have a boyfriend, Tori.""Hahaha. That's correct. So, did you happen to see him?""No, I haven't," I said, shaking my head."How come you come across as uninterested?""It's because I'm not.""And why is this so?""Um, I have final exams in a few days, so I need to keep my mind steady.""Oh, you're serious? I'm sorry. Bella, do your best." And gave a thumbs up."I appreciate it."Tori said to me as I was arranging the glasses on the counter, "Hello, Bella! Can you bring these to table four?""Sure, sure. Give it to me."I went

Isabella's pov;"Why didn't you say you and Harry went to the same high school?" Tori inquired while I was arranging the shots in a row."I forgot to tell you, and you didn't ask me." I said with a chuckle."He's been working here for a month and yet you kept it a secret from me.""How, by the way, did you find it?""Harry informed me. He also did not tell it on his own. It was difficult to get it out of his mouth because he is so close-lipped.""Really? I think he was toying with you. He's not a tight lipped person like you said. He's a public noticeboard, he won't keep things to himself. You could have asked me, if you wanted to know." I said with a chuckle."I considered it, but you were too busy serving customers. Do you always work that hard?""It's only for the weekend," I said, nodding."Wait, you talk like you know about him so well. Is he really just a friend?" "Yes. Only a friend.""Am I really your friend?" Harry teased me while trying to take a shot from the plate I arrang

Isabella's pov:When I awoke, I realised I was no longer in Mr Martinez's house, but in mine. I looked at the empty mattress beside me that Mr Martinez had spread out on the floor before leaving in the middle of the night. I didn't even ask if he had returned home.I sighed and got out of bed, rolling up the mattress and storing it in the corner.After showering, I changed into my school uniform. My usual breakfast consisted of instant cup noodles. At Mr Martinez's house, I missed eating Kirk's dishes. He would always surprise me with a new dish every morning because I adored his cooking. I felt happy and good after eating his food every morning like it was some kind of energy to my everyday life. I walked out of the house after taking my belongings to school. My phone started ringing while I was holding the door knob to lock it. I let go of it and looked through my pockets and discovered the sound coming from inside the house. I pushed open the door and searched for my phone. It was

Mr Martinez pov;"For more than a week, the affair between The CEO and a high schooler has been the talk of the town. Alexander Martinez, the CEO of Skyland Corporation, was accused of having an affair with a high schooler a week ago, but the investigation is still ongoing. Pictures of them being intimate were leaked online, causing a stir in the business world. A 24-year-old man having sexual relationship with a 17-year-old schoolgirl? Was she forced to be with him? What is the connection between them?…"Mr Johnson said as he turned off the television, "Why are you watching this garbage? It's been all over the news for a week, and even though I told them not to telecast or spread it anymore, they're still doing it?" "And how about Ms Garcia? Did you check her place?""I checked her house, school, workplace, and any other places she worked. Everyone claims to know nothing about her or her mother's whereabouts. They sound like Isabella and her mother just vanished. It's pointless to lo

Sophia's pov;During breakfast,"Did you study well for the exams?" My brother inquired as I ate my breakfast before leaving for school."Yeah." And I kept eating my breakfast."Can't you respond while looking at me? And why are you rushing your breakfast? There is still time to go to school."I didn't say anything and kept eating."Why are you upset with me? Was it because I kicked her out? She fled on her own. And she didn't flee empty-handed. She took two million dollars with her. I knew she worked multiple jobs to make ends meet, but I had no idea she was so desperate for money that she had a relationship with a rich guy who's older than her.""I've heard a lot in school; do you want to do it here as well?""But I wasn't entirely wrong. She did steal the money, didn't she? Did she make contact with you?"I stood up from the table, shaking my head."Wait until I drop you off at school.""It's fine, I'll ride my bike." And then I left the house.While driving, I wondered what would h

AFTER TWO YEARS, Isabella's pov;An open diner in the North Charleston neighbourhood of South Carolina. The drive-through is open 24 hours a day, while the diner closes at 10 p.m. for walk-in customers."Here! Who's attending this table?"A call came in from table number six. A family of a father, mother, and two sons sat at the table."What is your order, Sir?" I asked, a smile on my face."I'd like three sausage burritos with a side salad, one double cheeseburger, and don't top it with tangy pickles, my son doesn't like it," he said, pointing to the menu."Yes, Sir."He continued, "One buttermilk crispy chicken and one fish fillet, one hot fudge sundae, one baked apple pie, one hot caramel sundae, and coke for three." "Your order will be ready in a few minutes, Sir." I smiled and walked away from the table.I approached the counter, gave the guy the list of dishes i got and then waited for it to arrive from the kitchen. While I was waiting, one of my coworkers, David, approached m
