Bettany POV I sent a message to Isaac before I prepare myself to go out with the girls. I think I need to apologize to him about last night even though I couldn't remember what exactly I did. Me: Isaac, I'm sorry about last night whatever I did. After I hit the send button I heard Tamara's excited voice. “Bitches let’s go”. Tamara said to us eagerly. “Okay, T hold your horses for just a minute, why are you so hyper today? Tamara seems full of energy and you couldn't find a trace that she is just wasted last night unlike me my head still throbbing but I don't want to be a killjoy for the girls so I agreed with them to go out. "Of course, we have a new sister here how could I not be so excited about it? Ave, what do you want to do first? "Oh, I wanted to visit specifically one place is it okay for the both of you? Avery looked at me and Tamara for confirmation". "Yes, anything A. Now tell me where is it? I said softly to her. "I wanted to visit the amusement park is it too child
The weekend ended and a weekday come, it passed by without us knowing, it was already Wednesday and tomorrow is Isaac’s birthday. I’m excited to celebrate it but I’m also nervous, what if he’s not gonna like it? What if he got mad at me like Avery said he doesn’t want to celebrate any of his birthdays? No, I need to think positively that he will gonna like it no matter what. He needed to be happy, especially on his birthday. After the incident happened on the weekend, I am much bolder now to show my feelings for him. I let go of the thought of what will gonna think of others when they saw us together. If Isaac can do it, why can’t I? I just fall in love with my CEO neighbor is that bad? That’s the thought that always pushes me to do better. I asked Carol to apply for my leave for tomorrow. I’m going to prepare a simple dinner party for Isaac with the help of Avery and Tamara. I know that Isaac tomorrow's schedule will be tight, and I have already inquired about it to Jeff, his assista
Isaac POV Bettany's figure has already disappeared at the back of her door but I'm still standing here in front. I'm holding a small wrapped box that she gave me a while ago. My curiosity told me to open it but as I promise Bettany I would wait for her instruction when I could open it so I controlled myself. I'm surprised when she greeted me with a Happy Birthday earlier, I didn't tell her my birthday on purpose. I couldn't remember when the last time I celebrated it but since I meet Bettany, I'm looking forward to it for the first time celebrating it with her but unfortunately, she is not available. I'm going to ask her earlier to have dinner with me and celebrate it but I got disappointed when I heard her tell me she couldn't be with me for breakfast and dinner. I thought my birthday will be different this year but I was wrong. I'm still happy though that she knows that tomorrow is my birthday even though I'm not the one who told her about it, it seems that I am already important to
ISAAC POV I was too occupied with my work that I didn't realize the time passed by. I find my phone hoping Bettany has already messaged me from the morning coz I'm missing her already. When I check it there was no message at all. She didn't inform me if she has arrived safely at her parent's place. Is she, that busy that she couldn't even send me a single message? I dialed her number; I badly wanted to hear her voice. It rings repeatedly but there's no answer at all. My mood dampens immediately. Now I'm so disappointed, is it so hard to answer my call? I'm starting to sulk at my table when Jeff comes to my side and reminded me of my meeting. "Mr. Jones your meeting is about to begin in a few minutes". Jeff politely reminds me. "Hmm, I'll be there. Is it my last schedule for the day? I asked Jeff just to make sure. "Yes, Mr. Jones after this meeting you are free to have dinner with your sister Avery". I just nodded to Jeff and he left my room. I couldn't help myself but think about
Bettany POV "Princess, are you tired? Isaac asked me after everyone left. Avery left with her parents and Isaac's best friend. Tamara also went home; I and Isaac are the only one left behind. "Not yet, why? I smiled at him. "Can you accompany me for a ride? he gently asked me with his hopeful eyes. "Sure, where are we going? I agreed with him. "You will know". he answered me mysteriously. We went out of his place and went down to the parking where his car was parked. He drives us to the road and I'm still clueless about where we were going. I observed the scenery that we passed by but I'm not familiar with it and couldn't still figure out where our destination is. After a few minutes were already outside of the town. "Isaac, where we off to? I couldn't help my curiosity and ask him. "You will know when we get there, patient princess". he just smiled at me. "Fine, by the way, did you like our surprise? I stared at him expectantly. "I don't like it princess but I love it. I did
ISAAC POV I slowly open my eyes and realize I'm all alone in the blanket on the sand, Bettany is not on my side and nowhere to be seen. I didn't realize I fall asleep on her lap. I still couldn't believe Bettany is already agreed to be mine. This is the best gift and most memorable one I received on my birthday. I scan the area along the beach and I found my girl standing near the water looking ahead at the ocean. My heartbeat becomes fast just by the view of my girl standing there like a water goddess. Her long wavy hair moves every time the wind blows, and a visible smile on her beautiful face, I could feel the warmth in my heart at this view. How I wish every time I open my eyes in the morning what I can see, is her face. It's still dawn and the light in the sky is slowly peeking on the horizon. The blue and clear sky are now mixed with the orange effect of the sunlight rising. I slowly approach Bettany in the back and wrapped my arms around her. She looked at me with some emotion
Isaac POV After my short trip with Bettany on the beach, I didn't feel tired at all. I don't feel sleepy at all, instead of sleeping in my bedroom, I went to my study room to work. I still have time before our dinner later. I need to finish some work before I went back to New York. My attention in the headquarter in New York is needed, this time I need to spend a whole month out there. When I realize I'll be gone a long time I felt sad and uneasy. My relationship with Bettany is just begun but here I am going to be away from her for a month. I want to invite her to come with me but I know her well, she will decline it immediately coz of her work here. She's just a workaholic like me sometimes and I got jealous of her work. She's having more attention to it rather than to me. I woke up at my thought when my phone rang. Ring...Ring... "Hi, Bub". I could hear the excited voice of my sister on the other line. "Yes, what's the matter? why did you call? I ask her straightforwardly. "Can
Bettany POV Days and weeks passed and I felt even more happier with my relationship with Isaac. For a long time, I'm always praying that someday I can be with the person who's willing to spend his time with me. It could be on a happy day or a bad day. I want to share my everything with that person. Till now I couldn't still believe I'm in romantic relations with Isaac. Every day when I opened my eyes, I always ask myself do I deserve him. I'm just an ordinary woman who fell in love with him. I told him we could take it slow but what happen these past few weeks I don't think we're in a slow phase. I already meet his parents and he meet my parents though were not official at that time yet. Like Ryle and Tamara's advice to me, I need to avoid being an over-thinker person. I need to learn how to go with the flow, enjoy, and embrace every moment that is happening with us. This is my first official relationship and I don't want to mess it up. I know I'm still lacking in some areas, but I ma
