Juliet's POVI cannot forget the day I got a job at this restaurant here. That was the same day I met Luca. The man of my dreams. He was handsome, and had all the features I desired in a man. The only problem is that he never noticed me. Not even once. It broke my heart. I tried so many times, so he could notice me, but all my efforts failed because he never even looked at me.* * * * * * * * * * * * Today I don't know what happened to him because he decided to talk to me. I remember back then when I tried talking to him, he would normally ignore me or tell me 'it's work time'. This word he said so many times until I was used to it. Anyway, I had to respect myself am I stopped talking to him. But today I just could not control myself when I saw him walk inside the restaurant looking so dull and swollen face. That was how he talked to me. I felt so happy, and I just could not stop talking. My day was so beautiful. And with no time, I told him about the party and to my surprise, he ac
Susan Mark POV (Ella's mother)Even though my marriage is not a bed of roses, I made sure it will not affect my daughter Ella. She had struggled so much already. And there was no way I will tell her about my struggles.Even though she had asked so much about the reason for my sadness, I told her only the shallow part of the story. I could not tell him that the man she knew as her dad had become a drunkard. And that everyday he comes home very late being so intoxicated. I don't know what was the problem with him. It was so hard to believe that the man I loved with all my heart had changed so much. Not so long ago, we were so happy with each other, but not anymore. I was so sad because of all this. I prayed that he would change soon, and it looks like my prayers were answered because he stopped coming home drunk, but the issue was he was still coming home late. This behavior was really getting into my nerves and I could not stop myself anymore from questioning his latest character. “
Lucas POVSpending time with Juliet was fun but at the same time so irritating. She was talking too much, and I was starting to hate it. It was time to leave for work, and I was fearing that she will refuse to leave my house. I was planning that if she refused, then I will chase her instead. I don't want her in my home. I think she is a bad company for me. The thing that irritated me the most is when she asked about my live life. She made me start thinking about Ella and how she betrayed my love for her. It still hurts so much. I feel like running away from myself right now so that I could evade feeling the hurt I was feeling right now.“Are you done already. I am going to close my house now.” I said while getting outside my bedroom. She was there staring at me like someone who had seen a ghost. She was so pretty but very talkative. I didn't know what had happened to her now until she was so quiet.“What?” I said to her. “Nothing. I am ready. You don't have to chase me out of your
Ella's POVI felt like my mind was exploding when mother called me and informed me that Laura was nowhere to be seen. We search everywhere for her, and I am about to give up when mother comes up with an idea about Luca and I decide to call him. My mind relaxes when Luca informs that she was with my daughter at the restaurant. I quickly rushed to the restaurant and I allowed my mother to go home. She was already stressed out about this, and it was better for her to get some rest. I reach the hotel and I spot my daughter. She was there eating peacefully as if nothing had happened to her. I rush to her and hug her so tightly. The thought of me losing her had hit me so hard. I will now be extra careful with her.“Baby, why did you leave home without anyone's concert?” I asked her after I had released her from my chest.“I am sorry, mother. I had come here to look for Uncle Luca. He has not come to see me and I miss him.” She says, and I feel so sorry for her. She saw Luca as her dad and
Luca's POVI get home feeling exhausted but happy. Today I saw Ella and my precious Laura. I will never forget this moment. I know now Ella will give me permission to spend time with Laura. I hope it happens that way. I was in a good mood today. So, I decided to treat myself by cooking a good meal since it was still early. After I am done, I sit at my dining table and I start enjoying my meal. The heartbreak I was feeling has subsided a bit. I had accepted my fate that Ella and I will never be together, but the good part is that my bond with Laura will never break.I am about to take a bite of my food when my phone starts ringing. My heart hoped that it was Ella that was calling but when I checked my phone it wasn't her but Juliet. I wonder why she was calling at this hour. It was so late already for her to be calling me.Me – Juliet. Why are you calling me at this hour?Juliet – just relax, handsome. There is no need to get angry over a silly matter. Anyway, how are you?Me – I am o
Juliet's POVEver since I spent the night at Lucas house, I really cannot get him out of my mind. He meant the world to me, and I really can't wait for the day when he finally notices me. I feel like I don't want to spend any minute away from him. I love him, and I will do anything for him to start feeling the same way I do.This morning I had called him like three times, but he did not pick up my calls. This left me so heartbroken. But I don't give up. I decided to call one more time, and I was lucky that he picked it at last. I begged him until he decided to allow me to go over to his house. That was all I wanted and whatever I wanted I must get it. He was the one I badly wanted, and I will make sure to have him anytime from now.* * * * * * * * * * *I start preparing myself to go over to his house. I am so excited that I will see him today. Finally, I will be at his house again. The last time I went there, I had so much fun. I miss spending time with him. I just hope he will feel
Luca's POV.I admit that Juliet cooks really well. I had enjoyed her food so much. I remember we nearly kissed after we collided in the kitchen door. When our eyes met, I felt something, but it was only physical. As the only woman I was in love with was Ella. I don't know if I will ever love another woman the way I love her. But I will forget. I have to move on.“Thank you for the food.” I say to her as I retire to my couch. Sundays were always so boring for me because I had nothing to do. Just staying at home doing nothing. I was somehow glad that Juliet was here, at least I had someone to talk to. Today she had really behaved. So far, she has not told me anything that upset me.“You are welcomed.” She said, smiling broadly. I could see the sparkle in her eyes. The thing I had started suspecting was that she had feelings for me. I really didn't mean to hurt her feelings because I felt the complete opposite. “So what now. Are you going to tell me what brought you to my house?" I aske
Felix POVI am jobless again. This time round, I am the cause. All this is because of my love for Sarah. I am obsessed with her completely, and there is nothing I will do that will make me fall out of love with her.But now I am the reason she has lost her job too. I fear if she will ever forgive me. So, it was better if I headed home straight away. I know she is crying a lot right now, and I don't want her to be alone in this tough time. I must be by her side even if I am hurting too.Furthermore, I park my staff at the office and then I leave. With a heavy heart, I turned around, and I looked at my desk, I felt a hot tear coming out of my eye. I got this job with a lot of difficulty, and now I had to leave it because of a very silly mistake. The bosses were too tough with their decision. I feel they were being unfair. But what is done, is done already and there was no way I could change their minds now.I reached home and, to my surprise, the door was closed but since I had my key w
