Happy Birthday
I wake up to a little knock on my door; I am sure it’s mom here to tell me happy birthday. Today is my birthday; I am excited to be turning twenty-three today. I tell the person to come in once I sit up on my bed.
“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday, Dear Andrea, happy birthday to you,” Mom and Abuela sing while walking into my room.
“Thank you,” I say, smiling, pulling them into a hug.
“Are you excited to be turning twenty-three today?” Mom asks smiling once I release her from the hug.

The Games Of The Heart Santiago And Emily
It's been two months since I came back to Miami. I miss Stefano terribly; I just wish he could be here with me. We talk almost every day; everything is going well between us. If someone told me a few months ago that I would be looking forward to my facetime call tonight with Stefano, I would have said that person is mad. The Stefano I met in Sicily four months ago isn’t the same Stefano I have been dating for two months. I love the new Stefano; I am actually happy I fell for the other one, it means I like him no matter what. Things are also going well at the office. Once I came back, I did as I said I would and asked HR to hire Emily. Working with her so far has been good, but I haven’t told Santiago that I hired her.

If I was talking to Santiago, I am sure he would have made sure I gave him feedback on how Emily's mom is doing, but I won't. I know I can't be angry at him forever, at least I should punish him a little by not talking to him for a while. I park my car in front of Emily's house and walk to the door to knock. I don't really like the neighborhood she is living in; it looks a little dangerous. I will talk to her about moving to another place. This is not the place Emily used to live when we were in high school. She must have moved places after her dad died. After a few knocks, Emily opens the door.

"I know, but I have gotten used to calling you “Boss” since you refused to allow me to call you Ma’am." "I couldn’t stand my friend calling me ’Ma’am’, ‘Boss’ sounds calmer to me." "Why?" "I don't

"Good day Miss," Sarah says. "Hello Sarah, what do you need?" "Mr. Santiago is downstairs asking for your permission to enter the house." "Why does he need my permission? This is his father's house; he doesn’t need my permission to enter." Every time Santiago has come by the house to try and talk to me. I leave the house before he can even say two words. "He knows that, but he wants to make sure you don't leave once he enters."

Finally, we are on our way to Stefano's penthouse. I can't believe I spent the whole evening waiting for him at the warehouse after we hadn't seen each other for two months! Once we get inside, he leads me straight to his bedroom. What I see when he opens the door takes my breath away. There are scented candles everywhere, and rose petals on the bed. "Stefano, what is all this?" I ask, smiling at the romantic scene in front of me. "Tonight, is our first time together after having been away, I wanted to make it special for you," he says, coming up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist. "You didn't have to do that," I tell him turning around to face him. I can't believe he did something this lovely for me. "I wanted to," he murmurs, capturing my lips in a heated kiss. This kiss is very different from the kiss, earlier today at his warehouse. This kiss tells me
The Games Of The Heart Meeting Dad
I am on my way to the airport to pick up Aurora. She came to the US to see her monster of a boyfriend. I don’t know why she would visit someone like him. I will find out once I see her and we talk. After a few minutes, I arrive at the airport’s private plane area. I step out of the car and see Aurora walking out of the plane. “Andrea, how are you doing?” She says, descending the plane stairs. “I am good. How are you?” I say, walking closer to the end of the plane stairs. “I am good too, how are things with Stefano?” “Things are amazing between us. I can’t wait for him to arrive on Thursday this week. I miss him,” I say, smiling as I think about how things have been going great between us. I help her put her stuff into the trunk before walking over to the driver’s seat to get going.

The following day, while on my way to meet Stefano at his hotel room, I take a detour after getting a call. I message Stefano to tell him I will be a little late. I drive to the address sent to me on my phone. I arrive after a few minutes of driving. I walk inside the restaurant with a lot of thoughts going through my head. The one that sticks out the most is how he knew I lived in Miami; but I will find out once I see him. "Hello Ivan," I say once I reach his table. The last time I spoke or saw Ivan was at Aurora's party. I tried calling a few times, but the calls never went through. I always wondered how he was doing and hoped everything was fine with him. "Hello Andrea, I am so sorry I asked to meet with you all of a sudden." Ivan was the one who called asking to see me urgently. He said he had something important to tell me. "It's fine; I am just surprised you knew I was in Miami" I never told Ivan th
The Games Of The Heart I Rather Perish In Hell
We arrived a few hours ago, I am so sleepy, but I can't sleep. As soon as we landed, we went to the warehouse to determine how much damage was done. I am so happy I came, the anger surging through Stefano is enough to destroy a whole city. He is furious about losing more than half of his weapons here in California, the fact that he can't find the person responsible is not helping. I do not know what to say to make him feel better, but I know my presence here is enough. I am in his office waiting for him while he tries to find out more information about the fire. I get sleepy and try not to fall asleep, but the next time I open my eyes, I find myself in Stefano's arms, moving towards a bed. I must have been exhausted to have slept through the ride all the way back to his apartment. I don't say anything to him as he places me on the bed. I give his hand a warm squeeze before he walks away to let him know everything is going to be ok
