New York

Isaac POV I decided to fly back to New York City. I needed some time to clear my head. Everything happened so fast in Ohio in a good way to the point I felt scared that one day it will be gone again and my past might repeat once again. I’m always excited to see and be with Bettany. Somehow I felt that I’m with my old self again. Because after I broke up with Livy I choose to drown myself in my work. I close myself to everyone. I lost myself from being hurt by someone I love more than I should be. I felt cold inside but when I came to Ohio and meet Bettany I felt warm again and I couldn't explain why. Do I’m ready to embrace all these feelings and go back to my old self and be vulnerable once again? --- “Bub, I’m home,” I called for my sister. She is in the living room watching tv. “Oh my god, Bub you’re finally here. When did you come back, why you didn’t tell me you will come. I miss you, Bub”. my sister uttered with surprise on her face. “I just landed today I came here directl

Prince Charming

Bettany POV Our group of friends is still inside the restaurant. They still savoring the fresh seafood on their plate when suddenly my phone rang. I saw Isaac’s name pop up so I answered it regardless of the noise in the background. “Hello, Isaac? I greeted him calming myself. My heart went giddy knowing that I can hear his voice. “Hi did I disturb you? His deep voice echoed in my ears. “No, it’s okay just wait for a second I will go to some quiet place so we can hear each other clearly”. I mouthed to Tamara that I will go out and pointed the phone at my ears. I went to the beachside not too far from the restaurant. “Isaac, are you still there? I asked Isaac making sure he didn’t hang up on me. “Yeah, I’m here. How are you? “Good, actually I’m enjoying myself. You should visit this place in your free time.

Hiking

A day passed and we were still at the Garden of Eden. Ryle and I wanted to try the Hiking activities offered at the Garden of Eden. At first, Tamara disagreed with it coz she is not a fan of long walks but in the end, we both convinced her to come along. “Guys I already booked our hiking tomorrow. I think we were accompanied by 3 more groups. It’s going to be more fun”. I eagerly announced to both of them but Tamara is still sulking on the side. “Cupcake, don’t give us that face now. I’m sure you will be enjoying the scenery tomorrow, we will fall in love again watching the sunrise.” Ryle coaxed the pouting Tamara at the side. “Come on we will love this, are you not excited to meet some stranger so that we can be friends once again? I comforted her as well. “Fine, I don’t have any choice now do I? She gives us a sarcastic smile but we both know that she’s looking forward to it as well.

“Guys gather up, it’s time to head back down. Breakfast is waiting for us. Be careful on your way down. Let’s move before the heat chase us down.” Our group of friends started to walk side by side again. Tamara and I walked after our friends and we are the last ones to leave. We were chatting with nothing while walking. We’re in the middle of hiking down when I accidentally step into a small branch of trees and I slide back. I felt my ankle twisted before I landed on my butt. I screamed with an excruciating pain that got the attention of my group of friends. “Hey munchkin, are you okay? Ryle ran back to me and inspected where I got hurt. “I think I sprained my legs and my butt hurts a lot”. “Okay here let me help you, try to stand up and step into your foot”. Ryle help me get up but once I put pressure on my foot I felt too much pain. “Aww, Ryle I can’t, it hurts fu**ing much. I couldn't walk.” “Okay, okay, here hop into my back I will carry you down”. Ryle got down so I can hop

Dreaming

I’m still in the living room engulfed in a deep thought while Isaac cooked in my kitchen. I couldn't believe that Isaac confessed his feelings to me. Is it real or am I still just dreaming? Ring...Ring... A sudden ring of my phone woke me up from my deep thoughts. I saw on my caller I.D. Ryle’s name. I answered it immediately. “Hello, how’s everything there? I’m about to call you but you beat me on it.” “Hey munchkin, a little tired but I’m okay. How are you feeling? how's your ankle? “I’m good don’t worry about me. How’s Hannah? Is she okay now?

Meet the Parents

Isaac POV I woke up with a soreness all over my body. I just realized I have fallen asleep on the couch yesterday night while we are watching the movie. I think my body caught up with jet lag and stress. I hope Bettany didn’t mind that I have fallen asleep in the middle of our movie. I’m about to go to the kitchen to prepare some breakfast for Bettany when suddenly her doorbell rang and I was startled. Before I made my way to the door I made sure that I’m presentable enough to the persons behind that door. I opened the door and saw a middle age old couple standing there with different items in their hands. Is Bettany expecting visitors today but she was still asleep at the moment? I’m going to greet them but the old man spoke first. “Who are you? where’s Bettany? “Good morning sir, ma’am, please come in Bettany is still sleeping at the moment. I’m Isaac, Bettany’s neighbor and you could say suitors as well.” I explained to the couple and with my observation, they’re Bettany’s paren

Bub

After two weeks of my accident, my ankle healed and I’m back at work again while my parents returned to our home. Isaac started to pursue and show me that his intentions are serious and real. He doesn’t allow me to drive from home to work. We were always having breakfast at my favorite diner before going to the company. When we are at the company I made sure no one sees us. I am still not comfortable when we are at the company. I’m afraid that all employees will look at me differently. It’s also one of the reasons why I couldn't still make up my mind and make it official with Isaac even though I know to myself that I like him more than I should be. Ding...Dong... I opened my door and Isaac was standing outside handsomely in his dark blue suit, looking at me and smiling brightly. “Good morning princess, ready to go? “Yes, let’s go. Ahm, actually I have an early meeting this morning so can we skip the breakfast thing? I hesitantly ask him coz I know he will not going to agree with th

Boo

We arrived at my apartment and I let Avery stay in one of my guest’s rooms. It’s a timing that tomorrow will be a weekend and Tamara will be visiting me in town. We have time to do the list of what I and Avery wanted. I’m also excited for Tamara and Avery to meet each other. Based on Avery’s personality I’m sure they will like each other. They are both crazy about other things and foodies like us. We were in my living room having a good tea when Isaac started a conversation with his sister. “Bub, I will let you stay here but once I learn that you stress Bettany I will come and get you.” Isaac sternly reminded her sister. “Hey, what am I a kid? I’m a grown-up lady now, so you don’t need to worry. Bettany and I will have a blast day ahead of us without you.” “Make sure of it. Avoid making any trouble coz you're not in our home. By the way, I can't accompany you tomorrow Jeff needed me at the office. You could find me at the company if you want, then after my work, we can go out.” “D
