Monica’s P.O.V
“Happy!”
Hayden grumbled, not on parr with what I had just put him through. He was back to his stoic demeanor, gone was the longing and intense gaze in his eyes. He just wanted to be absent of my presence.
“Very!” I pushed at him. “That was very intense, tesoro.” “Did you im

Bambi's P.O.V“So why did you call me here, Noah asked. We were currently seated at his friend's restaurant. The moonlight shining bright upon us. It was not as busy as it usually was, giving us ample space and time to talk. His friend had already brought us our order. Meaning I could no longer delay what I called him for. I hesitantly looked at him, trying so hard not to let my eyes fall. “Noah, about your proposal” I swallowed a huge lump that was clogging my throat, bracing myself for what I was about to do. “I accept!” “Wait! What did you just say!” He asked in disbelief. A smile threatening to fill out his cheeks. Smiling nervously, I repeated my answer. “Yes, I accept to be your girlfriend!” Out of all outcomes I was expecting, none of them were of Noah jumping from his seat and hugging me. I was perplexed. But since I did not want him to feel embarrassed, I awkwardly hugged him back. “I am so glad you accepted,” He whispered to me. All I could do was just awkwardly nod. “

“I am so glad you agreed to come with my son for my birthday!” Tammy, Noah’s mother or as I had been introduced to her, said. Her eyes were glistened with moisture, as she helped me with the tray dish I was holding, putting it away before replacing it with her hands as she held me lovingly. It was just the two of us in the cozy kitchen. The rest of the family were busy having fun as they danced the night away. “You know, he does talk a lot about you. Every time he calls, it is just you, you and You! No chance to ask about mama.” She giggled, wholeheartedly as she tried to shake the tears away. I let out a shaky laugh, not sure on what to say after that revelation. “You make him so happy. I love the glow I have seen on him today, and I would be so blessed to call you my daughter in law someday.” She burst out crying, clinging on to me to hide away her tears. “He has been through a lot! You know and am just so glad someone out there is making him happy!” The tears cascaded down her

A glimmer of hope flashed through his eyes, before fluttering them close and shaking his head. “Bambi, you are completely out of it. You need to get back to bed and sleep. I will bring you some water.” He said making out to leave, but before he could go, I grabbed him. “I am very serious Noah, and I am not drunk. See!” I leaped on the bed, my wiggly form making it hard for me to stand up straight. “Yeah right, and I am good at parkour!” He joked “Noah, I need you to be serious with me, I am not joking with you right now!” His face softened, as he caressed my cheeks softly. “Bambi, how about we talk about this tomorrow, when you are okay and SOBER!” I huffed in frustration, stomping my feet like a kid which resulted in me losing my balance completely and falling on my face. But I was quick to get myself straight and face him head on. “You really don’t believe me, do you?” I whispered, my eyes watering. No, I was done crying for the day. Wiping away the fallen waters, I continued.

The soft patters of raindrops cascading down the windowpanes pulled my consciousness away from the depths of sleep. My first reaction being to grab the blankets that I could feel tangled and intertwined with my legs, to shield me from the chilling cold and boy was it freezing! I angrily moaned to myself, cursing my short arms for not reaching the blankets sooner. Reluctantly, my eyes fluttered open when I could not feel the soft blankets onto my hands. A scowl formed on my face, when I realised that the bits of my beauty sleep would get wiped away by the cold. Trying to save the last remaining bits of sleep and savour the cold weather, I quickly huddled the blanket over my head, turning around the bed to find a cozy position, that would allow me to finally drift off to la la land. My body stiffened in alert as I came into contact with what seemed to be a warm body. ‘What was that!’ I asked my inner conscious; afraid it would be something I would not like. Hesitantly, my eyes flatt

Months had passed ever since Noah, and I made it ‘official’. And to be honest, it wasn’t quite bad. In a way, I had gotten used to it. Noah was lovely, too lovely and I truly didn’t deserve him. His home had become mine; an allegiance had formed between his family and me. It had become a daily occurrence for us to visit Tammy and the gang, at least twice a month. Just never thought I would look forward to those trips as much as I did, well except the drinking parties that took place after the kids went to sleep, I had vowed to myself to steer clear from those! I had come to terms with the fact that sometimes, life was not always a smooth road. What we wished to have may not always come through. This was settled when I noticed that the house was wiped clean of Hayden’s presence. His belongings, his presence all gone without a single word. Monica too, was nowhere to be seen. Looks like he had finally gotten over me. Huh! I laughed at that memory, the pain that I had felt in my chest t

“Just wait until you see the room!” Noah exclaimed excitedly, like a little kid who just got his first toy on Christmas, as he directed me towards where the presidential suite, with the help of the hotel’s staff of course! The hotel was truly breath-taking. I had thought that I had seen it all, but apparently that was only a fraction of it! My doe eyes were wide open in wonder and amazement as I took in the intricate curvings done on the hallways, and how the artwork complemented the old but beautiful Victorian designs. In my world of amazement, I failed to see the incoming guest, as my feet wobbled. If it were not for the Noah’s hands holding me in place, my lack of balance would have sent me kissing the ground. After a million ‘I’m fine’s and am okays to Noah,’ I finally turned to look at the one who had almost caused a scene in the middle of the hallway. “Steve!” I exclaimed, shocked at my former coworker who was looking at me sorry, as he raised his hand to hand me my fallin

Suddenly, the air was filled with the warm cinnamon scent, I had earlier whiffed in the hotel’s lobby. Was that person also near the hotel suite with us? Or was I just hungry for a banana muffin with lots of Cinnamon? Similarly, to Noah, I got up and went on and wrapped the hotel’s robe around my body. “Where was that scent coming from and what was taking Noah so damn long! I came to a screeching halt, when a tall daunting man, with visible age lines, walked into our hotel room, the cinnamon scent becoming much stronger! ***The driver! Hayden’s driver? But what was he doing here? My mind raced with questions. My blood was now cold in my veins, as I tightly wrapped the bathrobe around my body. What a coincidence would it be, that Hayden’s driver of all people, would walk into our hotel room! I mean what business would he have here! My heart thumped loudly. The old driver, who had countlessly driven me to school or accompanied Hayden during his impromptu pop ups at the house or

“Leave. Now!” I screamed at the man, who had not only given me the world but also caused it to crumble. He just stood there, unmoved. In lightning speed, I was pinned to the wall. “Tsk! Leave? There is no way in hell am ever doing that! am not going anywhere.” He sneered. And just like that, I lost my sanity! “Oh my God, stop it! Stop it, Hayden. Just stop with the damn mind games. You have now hurt my friend who has been nothing but nice to me for your selfish ego, yet you don’t even want to help him and now this! When will you stop being so damn selfish!” I cursed, the most curses I had ever cursed my entire life! My eyes were burning with anger, I looked crazy! In my frantic tantrum, I ripped myself off of him, poking him harder on his abdomen with my fingers, hoping to reciprocate whatever I was feeling in my heart. Suddenly, my hand were yanked of his chest, and instead I was back at that damn wall! “Selfish! Selfish! I am selfish?” He repeatedly chanted those words. At f
