A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 17
I was jolted awake by the annoyingly loud buzzing of my phone. The loud sound disturbed the peaceful silence that was in the room, rudely awakened me from my dreamless state. I groan and glance at the window. The sun hasn’t even risen yet. Who the hell was even awake at such an ungodly hour? I pick up the device and slide accept without even looking at the caller ID.“Good morning bailey.” Hazel's voice slices through the silence in the room, I put my phone off speaker and made my way into the living room to avoid stirring up Shayna.“It’s certainly not a good one anymore.” I mumble as i settle down on Shayna’s couch“Uhh? Can you repeat what you just said, I didn't quite get you.”“Ignore it, I wasn’t referring to you.” I lied“Good morning Hazel, how are you doing? Is there something you need help with?”“Um i am fine__no i was just calling you in advance to know firsthand if you had anything planned today?”“It depends. Do you need me for anything?”“Yes, I actually do…um, I am s

Cedrick picked us up from the boutique once we were done and drove us to the wedding planner's office.Walking into the two story building and I couldn't help but gawk in awe of the magnificent glass front that had glass birds and little glass swans on them. It was so beautiful that I stopped in my tracks to take in the beautiful scenery and Hazel walked ahead of me to the receptionist desk and I followed her afterwards.She tapped the desk with her nails to gain the attention of the woman there. “Good afternoon. I’m here for Mrs Patricia Flair. I booked an appointment with her for one pm today.”“Hold on, please give me a moment to confirm the appointment details.” the lady sitting behind the desk says glancing at the monitor In front of her as she inputs somethings into the keyboard.“The name on the appointment?” she asks.“Bailey Simmons.”“Ohh…..

As I walked out of his office unable to control the tears streaking my cheeks, I accidentally stumbled into Luke and my bag tumbled to the ground, scattering all its contents on the floor around me.“Great! Today just keeps getting better and better.” I said before squatting on the floor to pick everything up. Luke bent to help me.“Here, let me help.” Luke said “No, it’s alright Luke, it's not your fault that I am a klutz.” I said but Luke remained adamant and continued helping me in picking up the contents of my bag from the floor.“ Oh No Bailey you are not a klutz, it’s all my fault, i was actually coming to talk to you and William about something, so i guess i was in such a hurry to catch you before you left that i wasn’t looking at where-He stopped mid sentence as his gaze fell on my tear stained eyes.“Why are you crying, is everything alright with you Bailey? I hope William did not say something hurtful to you?” He asked in a sympathetic voice.“Pfft.” I said quickly, wiping

As Hazel and I exited the office, we took the elevator downstairs and walked over to the receptionist table where Stella worked. We got to her desk but she was busy with her computer as her fingers danced around the keyboard in a swirl of clicks, it wasn't until Hazel made a “Ahem” sound clearing her throat before she finally took note of our existence.“You again?” she said, basically snarling at me, Hazel gave me a puzzled look before speaking up.“Hello again Mrs Stella, we were sent directly from Mr Armani himself, could you please direct us to the staff’s locker room?” “Ohh yes, he called to inform me not too long ago, please give me a second the…..” She mumbled to herself as she rummaged through the stacks of papers and files on her table rifling through its content with focus, searching for the mysterious document or file. “Found it! Here you go.” she said, handing Hazel a pamphlet that had their company’s logo on it. “If you open to page 5, you’d see a detailed map of the en

I rubbed my eyes before glancing at the clock on my nightstand, it read noon. Wow! I never sleep in. Yesterday was too exhausting, I wanted to go back to bed but I knew I had to get up if I intended to meet John before he started his daily crankiness and also before the club officially opened for the day.I headed into the bathroom to brush my teeth before taking a quick bath. I entered my room afterward to change into one of my old ripped jeans and a white sweatshirt. I put on my white Crocs to match before deciding to take my tote bag instead of my usual purse.I walked into the kitchen, placing my bag down in a corner of my small counter as I moved around the kitchen trying to decide on what to make. I decided on a packet of Samyang ramen which was my usual go-to meal. It was ready within a few minutes, I sat down on my couch to start eating from my bowl as I scrolled through my phone.I made a mental note to tell Shayna about how much of a jerk William was since she practically h

Ring…Ring… I jumped out of my bed like my ass was on fire. I glance at the clock and I just have an hour and a half before Luke comes to pick me up. I wonder if William told Luke about what happened yesterday and if Luke was picking me up just to scold me.I dash into the bathroom and do the necessities. Once I was done with that, I styled my hair into a center-parting ponytail and lotion my body before opening the cloth bag Hazel had sent earlier.I put on the black with white polka dot A-line gown that stops a little below my mid-thigh and It had see-through long puffy sleeves. I paired it up with the black thigh leather heel boots and a white cute bag placed in the shopping bag.I loved the outfit but there was no time to admire myself in the mirror. I spritz on perfume before rushing to the kitchen to have toast and my daily dose of mocha.Once I was done, I washed my plate and mug and made my way down to wait for Luke.Luke arrived not up to a minute later and I got in the car a
