Mandy arrived at Amy’s place later that afternoon. They were going to have some girls time.“So, you have the house all to yourself?” Mandy couldn’t hide the excitement in her voice.“Aside from the maids. Yes.” Amy replied with the same excitement.Both girls squealed as they raced to Amy’s bedroom.“I won!” Mandy screamed, jumping on Amy’s bed, causing both girls to burst out in laughter.“You know,” Amy began when their laughter had died down.“I always wanted us to have a sleepover like this, without our parent’s supervision.”“Yeah. Me too.” Mandy sighed in agreement.“I never had the house to myself cos of my brothers… They’re the ones who always ended up bringing their friends over whenever mom and dad were on a business trip.” Mandy continued.“But finally, I get the chance to experience what it’s like to have the house to myself, thanks to you.” She said in conclusion.“What are we gonna do now?” Amy then asked.They both wore their thinking faces and in a matter of seconds M

Amy and her best friend showered after breakfast. Mandy suggested that they needed to go shopping, to buy some new clothes for the party. So, they went shopping, not only for new clothes, but also shoes because, Mandy wanted them to wear matching outfits. After shopping, they went to a restaurant to eat lunch before going to a beauty salon to get their hair, nails and makeup done. By the time they returned to the mansion, it was already dark. Instead of having dinner, they grabbed a quick snack. While Mandy was getting dressed, Amy decided to give her dad a call like she had promised.“Hello, dad”“Hello, my beautiful princess. How are you?” Her dad’s happy voice replied.“I’m fine, dad. How’s Spain?”“Spain’s okay. Just been busy, couldn’t find the time to go outside my office.”“Aww. Poor Daddy!” she cooed.“I waited for your call in the morning, until noon. I’m glad you called in the end, even though it took so long… You almost got me worried.” Henry confessed.“Forgive me, dad.

It was 1:30am, Bryan was trying to get some sleep after studying some files he’ll be needing for a board meeting when his phone started to ring. He wondered who could be calling him at this hour as he reached for his phone on the nightstand, it was Amy. He wasted no second in answering the call.“Bryan?.. please come pick me up.” Amy’s voice said as soon as he picked the call. She sounded shocked and totally disoriented and it sounded like she was in tears.“Amy, are you okay? Is something wrong?” Bryan asked, standing up from his bed.“Please, come get me out of here.” Amy replied. Her voice sounded shaky on the phone, causing Bryan to worry.She was supposed to be at home and the last time he spoke to Henry, which was some hours ago, he told him Amy was fine and that she had invited her best friend over, so she wasn’t alone in the house.‘So where is she talking about?’ He wondered.“Amy, breathe…” He said in a soothing voice.“Are you at home?” He asked just to make sure.It was

The ride back to Bryan’s place was quiet. Amy kept stealing glances at Bryan, she could tell from the frown on his face and how hard he was holding the steering wheel, that he was angry, probably at her but was holding back. It made her feel so small beside him. If he was reacting this way, she wonders what her dad would do when he finds out about what happened to her. She doesn’t want him finding out about today’s incident.Amy didn’t realize that they had already arrived Bryan’s mansion, until she felt a gentle pat on her knee, causing her to flinch away in fear.“I didn’t mean to scare you. I just wanted to let you know that we’re home.” Bryan said softly.Amy looked at her surrounding and realized that they were indeed at Bryan’s place. She covered herself properly with Bryan’s jacket and slowly climbed out of the car.

‘The time is 7:00am. The time is 7:00am.’ His alarm kept repeating.Bryan grudgingly turned off the alarm and rubbed his eyes. He was about to drag himself out of bed, when he felt a weight on his left arm. He turned to look at the source of weight and saw Amy holding onto his arm like her life depended on it while sound asleep.Images of what happened earlier that morning flashed through his mind. Amy had knocked on his bedroom door at about 3:35am when he was trying to get some sleep because she also couldn’t sleep. He hated to see her cry as that was the only thing she did earlier while he soothed her until she eventually fell asleep.He was only able to get an hour’s sleep before his alarm went off. He gently untangled her hands from his left arm and carefully placed her properly on the bed without waking her, before making his way to the bathroom to quickly freshen up. Amy’s eyelids slowly fluttered open to an unfamiliar, yet familiar bedroom. She rolled over on her stomach an

Bryan’s ringtone interrupted Amy’s thoughts, causing her to suddenly become aware of the happenings in her surrounding.“It’s Henry.” Bryan informed her and was about answering the call, but Amy held his hand to stop him.She shook her head and whispered the words,“Don’t tell him.” Surprising Bryan.He furrowed his eyebrows in confusion, not understanding why she wants him to keep this from her dad. But he said nothing, rather, he decided not to keep his best friend waiting by answering the phone call. He gave Amy a glance and put the call on speaker.“Hello? Bryan are you busy? I can call later.” Henry’s smooth voice said from the other end.“It’s okay, Henry. I have all the time in the world.” Bryan replied.“If you say so. Sorry about earlier, I had to attend an emergency meeting… Why did you call so early? Is something wrong?”And here comes the part Bryan wasn’t looking forward to. He doesn’t want to lie to his best friend, especially when it has to do with his daughter. But rig

“So, when do you plan on telling Henry about last night’s incident?” Bryan finally asked, getting Amy’s attention.Amy had a shocked, sad and confused look. She thought they were over this subject. Why is he still bringing it up? She wondered.She stared at Bryan, who was staring back at her, patiently waiting for her reply. Knowing the kind of person Bryan is, he isn’t going to give up until she gives him an answer.“I don’t intend to tell him.” She quietly replied, deciding to just tell Bryan the truth.“Are you being serious?!” Bryan exclaimed with a confused expression.“I decided not to say anything to Henry because I felt this wasn’t an issue to be discussed over the phone…” He continued.“You don’t seriously plan on keeping your father in the dark about such a grave issue?”“I can, and I will.” Amy stated, making Bryan even more confused and regretful.He shouldn’t have listened to her, he should’ve told Henry everything straightaway.“What is wrong with you, Amy?!”Bryan could

Amy spent the rest of the week at Bryan’s house, as planned. As promised, Bryan didn’t go to the office. He stayed at home to keep Amy company, only working in his study for two hours, when she takes her nap. After their conversation the other day, Bryan did all he could to make Amy feel more comfortable, even though he was hurting inside with the fact that she wanted to let the scoundrel who hurt her get away with it. He decided not to show it, and never mention of it, for the sake of Amy.She had suggested that she wanted to see some of the things he liked besides work, so he bought them VIP tickets to go watch the NFL games. Just to make her happy. He hired a private jet that flew them to New York, for the New York Fashion Week, and just like he guessed, Amy was very excited. This made him a bit relaxed.Henry will be back tomorrow, which is a Sunday, and he was a bit nervous because, although Amy seemed like she was recovering fast, he wasn’t entirely sure she was being honest.
