“Seriously? You are still wearing that?” Vian questioned with a very upset look in his eyes.
“I… I forgot about it.” I said feeling guilty and defenseless.
“You forgot about it?” he asked me in a mocking tone. “It’s YOUR finger and YOU are wearing it.” He pressed the words pointing at my hand. “How could you forget something like that and it’s been two days,” Vian said with a menacing look.
He was right, and I have nothing to say to that but I wasn’t going to stand there looking all guilty and go down without an argument.
“Well, you were with me on those two days, why didn’t you say anything about it? You must have seen it at least once. You should have told me something before proposing to me.” I yelled back. It was the most absurd thing that came out of my mouth.
“Oh, I am sorry I didn’t notice the ring in your finger because my concentration was elsewhere in your body,” he growled back without thinking. It took him a second to realize what
I was taking an evening walk with Vian towards our high school in the old town. The sun shone brightly on the western sky just before setting like it was ready to give the stage to the moon and the stars. We were walking in silence immersed in our thoughts.A day before, Vian suddenly barged into my office with Damon and took me with him hauling me away from my office without saying anything about where he was taking me and leaving Damon in charge of the company like he owned it.I was busy for the past two weeks, and I couldn’t even properly text Vian on those days. I was trying to finish a deal with a Chinese company that was interested in investing in our company. If I get that deal successfully then, I needn’t worry about paying Ryan’s dad’s debt in a year. With Vian and Jay’s help, I could pay him off within 6 months.I tried my best to refuse Vian and Jay’s help but they somehow convinced me. Jay told me that he was payi
I blinked a few times to adjust my vision and then I screamed noticing the person who helped me.“Jay!” I hugged him tightly in excitement without believing my eyes. I was relieved that at least Jay was there beside me even though my dad and brother couldn’t make it.“Do you think we would let you get married without dad walking you to the aisle?” I looked around hearing Damon behind me. Willie, Damon, and Dev walked towards me in their black suits and I couldn’t help but get overwhelmed watching them. Since the moment they have taken off the blindfold, it all felt like a dream.“I thought you guys aren’t gonna be there.” I wept like a crazy girl hugging my dad and my brother in elation. Weirdly, even when I was happy beyond words tears kept rolling down my cheeks.“Baby girl, you haven’t said anything about my masterpiece,” Dev said running his hands over my dress. I was surprised an
Under the dark starry night, I was the lost soul who was searching for answers in solitary. I was lying down on the dewy grass spreading my limbs wide staring at the sky. It was cold and freezing here but I had something else filled in my mind to bother me. I couldn't focus on anything else... after I saw her face.Catching a glimpse of her face was nothing like what I expected. It was like pouring a bucket of cold water on you... so cold and painful.I went to her college to finally reveal that I was her sponsor but like a coward, I ran away... AGAIN without meeting her. After all these years, after what I did, it was so scary to meet her.I don't know how I survived this long without her in my life. I feel like drowning right now. I don't know if I can survive. I need air... I need m
My name is Ava. I am living in a small town called old town with my grandmother. I moved here to the mid-semester from London when I was in middle school due to some personal reasons. My mother couldn't take care of me with all her work so she sent me to her mother to take good care of me. She is working hard to save money for my college.When I moved here I didn't expect anything. I just want to be a normal girl who goes to school and comes back home and sleeps after doing all my homework. I don't want to enjoy my life partying and dating. I can't do that when my mom is working hard for me, but you can never be sure.My grandfather died recently so my grandmother took over his souvenir shop. She is a kind woman who puts other's happiness over hers. I admire her a lot for her hard work and her never-changing smiling face. She always has
I came home alone by bus after a long day. God, the first day in school is the worst one but I wouldn't say it was all bad. My mind flew to those two boys in school who helped me. Regardless of their looks, actions, and what other people say, I think those boys were kind and brave. I don't know why they stood up for me today but that was the kindest thing someone did to me.I sat down to finish my homework, and it started to rain outside. Grandma went to the supermarket, so I was alone at home. I ran outside to get the dry clothes before it all get wet.Outside the compound, in the street, I heard two people laughing out loudly. Voices were oddly familiar so I went out picking up my umbrella after throwing all the clothes on the couch in my room.To my surprise, it was Vian and J
The way they both acted when we were in school and when we were outside, confused me. In school, they went on their way like I was a stranger. At lunch, Jay didn't even look my waywhen Jackson and his friends teased me while crossing their table with my food in hand. I sat alone even though they were just sitting at the next table.I should have joined them but the way they were acting the whole day felt unwelcoming. Well, I shouldn't have bothered by it since I have been alone even in my old school. I guess I was just a little too excited and imagined being friends with them when they were just being nice.On the contrary, they started acting friendly when we are outside, which confused me. 'Were they embarrassed to be seen with me?' That thought ruined the great of my day and here I am pondering, unable to concentrate on my home
Let me be your teddy.Hug me when you're lonely.Get comfort from the warmth.Don't be sad my babe.I can't help you exit.But I will endure it,With youAlways and forever,.......................................................All the way home and even after washing up and sitting on my table for completing my homework, I couldn't get it out of my head...get him out of my mind. I can still feel his warm lips on my forehead. It was crazily weird but it also felt good sending shivers to my stomach whenever I thought about it. I don't know why he kissed me. To be honest it wasn't a big deal but why my mind is making it a big deal?It was just a friendly kiss. I am sure it doesn't mean anything to h
Fast forward 5 yearsVian's POVIt was the last day of our tour. It felt good to be home after several months of travel. This year's tour was a success and everyone was happy how all the places were fully booked. We added extra shows in some venues since the tickets were sold in the blink of an eye.It was incredible but at the same time terrifying how people shower us with their love. Some days I wanted to run away and hide from all the attention like today.Everyone was busy backstage running here and there to make sure everything was perfect since it was our last show of the year. The makeup artist was touching up my makeup, and someone was checking whether my mic was working properly. But I was in
