All Chapters of Always you: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

All I could think of was going home to rest, when a customer walked in, Jake had told the customer we are closed but he insisted on coming in, looking out I was shocked to see it was Ric. Ric is mom's best friend's son whom she has been trying to set me up with, but I have always made myself clear that I was not interested, Ric wouldn't take no for an answer, I wonder how he knew I worked here. Ric came in and was trying to exchange pleasantries with me but I kept the greetings professional and that made him somehow upset, I could tell because his tone changed when he was trying to talk to a waitress. I outrightly told Ric the restaurant was closed for the day, Ric wouldn't hear of it. Jake looked at me from the corner of his eye, trying to signal to me not to be rude to him, so I kept quiet all together. Ric decided to leave but not until he tells me he was waiting for me outside the restaurant. I didn't give Ric a reply but he didn't care. He just walked out of the resta

Hi Jake, sorry I missed your call earlier, I was a little busy. Busy swooning over you, I said in my thoughts. Jake also didn't know what else to say at this time. I had to pick up the conversation and get it going. Jake and I spoke for more hours before we retired to bed. Even though we spoke for a long time, I didn't tell Jake what he wanted to hear. I just had to delay my response, think over it and give him the right answer he deserves. At the restaurant m, during work hours I couldn't be alone with Jake to talk to him. He noticed I was trying to make an opportunity for us to talk, so he excused himself from the kitchen and told me to come to his office. None of the employees could suspect a thing, after all they saw how Jake was always avoiding me, giving them the impression that our boss probably hates me. What they didn't know was that "our boss" was in love with me and I also in love with him. At Jake's office, I was standing beside the visitor's seat. Jake ca

Josie followed the waitress until she got to an alley. She hid beside a building, she could see the waitress discussing something with the reporter but it was hard to make out What they were saying. Jake stood in front of the restaurant waiting for her, but when she didn't show up after 10 minutes, he became worried. He traced where she went through but got lost on the way. Jake called Josie but she wasn't picking up.Josie while hiding behind a building to avoid being seen by the waitress and the reporter was still trying to hear what they were saying without any luck. She was contemplating going closer but then her phone rang. She immediately cut the call, as it attracted the attention of the waitress and the reporter. They immediately stopped talking as they sensed someone might be watching them. They both look to see if someone was really watching them but as they didn't see anyone, they continued talking. Josie was glad she wasn't caught, she needed to hear what they were saying

Josie couldn't imagine her life without Jake, and so she married him. She watched her life become the most beautiful thing ever. As she watched her babies and their father, She was content and her heart was filled. A lot of things were going through her mind. She talked in her head, and she was smiling.Jake picked little Josie and little Jake from the kindergarten. I was always full just watching them come home from school. I couldn't ask for anything more than this. Mom couldn't accept the fact that I loved and married Jake. She didn't give us her blessings when we got married. I guess she is still trying to process the fact that I didn't do what she wanted. I sacrificed my happiness for hers when I let her leave dad, but I am not ready to sacrifice my happiness again and let her force me into marrying someone I didn't love. Mom always took the twins for the weekend but she never speaks to us. I am fine with that, what's more important is that she has time for her grandkids.Ric lef
