ALVIRA’S POV

It has been two weeks since that very disastrous date and Carter is yet to call or text or even show up at my door.

I have to admit, a part of me missed him and was in despair that he had not initiated a call or even made any effort to reach out to me. I could not count how many times I had run to my phone once I got a notification hoping and wishing it was him but only getting disappointed that it was just something else and not him.

Clarissa had made me promise that I would not be the one who initiated contact and all I can say is that it has been hell trying my hardest to keep to that promise. But I understood where she was coming from.

I needed to make sure that he knew that I could live life without him and I could see how that was aimed at making me more confident but with every day that passed without a call or text from Carter, I felt my heart break down a little more.

It hurt to realize that I was so dispensable that he could go days without talking to me or

    ALVIRA’S POV“Miss? Miss?”“Maam?” Jane said, touching me and breaking out of my thoughts. I looked around, realizing that I had zoned out again. I shook my head, embarrassed as I noticed all eyes on me. “Ma’am, is everything alright?” Jane asked in a quiet voice. “Huh? Yeah. Um, sorry, I just zoned out for a second. What were we talking about?” I asked. “We were asking if you had any questions on the subject, ma.” Jane said. I blinked. I had no idea what subject they were even referring to. “Oh! Okay, um, let me see.” I flipped open my notebook, skimming through the pages for anything that I could ask only to come up short. I raised my head, seeing their expectant faces and I immediately felt bad. “You know what? How about we adjourn this meeting, yes? I’m so sorry but I just have a lot on my plate right now. I am really sorry.” I apologized. “Of course ma. Whenever you’re ready.” She replied, smiling. “Ladies, gentlemen, we will meet again next week to continue our review

    CARTER’S POVI stood by the bleachers watching as the players practiced. The playoffs were in a week and the tension was high as they played, going over the same routines over and over. One particular player stood out, holding my attention for more than half of the time I stood there. He was the man that now held Alvira's heart. The past month has been with me constantly trying to get her to forgive me and speak to me and every single time, I was met with a brick wall. But I was not going to give up anytime soon. I was going to keep up until I knew that she had finally forgiven me. I have already come to terms with the fact that she can never be mine again. I mean, I blew up any other chances myself when I broke her heart. The new private investigator I hired had told me of her relationship with the man and how she spent every Sunday evening at their family house for dinner. It tore at my heart that I could not be the one to provide her with the love and care that she had always

    ALVIRA’S POVHow could he have possibly found me? Oh my God, help me!I could barely sleep for days. Seeing Carter for the first time since that unfortunate night had brought back a flurry of emotions. I did not know how to feel or react and somehow ended up having a panic attack. I was grateful that Clarissa had been there to help me or I would have passed out. I could no longer focus at work or anywhere. I would find myself zoning out just thinking about him. He had not aged a bit ever since. He still looked as handsome as he was when he broke my heart. He had also grown out his beards just a little bit. Exactly how I liked it. But it was too late to think about that now. It has been a week and a few days since he showed up back in my life and I hate to admit that I have not stopped thinking about him. Truth is, I never stopped thinking about him. One doesn’t just forget about one’s first love. How could I? He was my first in so many ways, I had made so many memories with him and

    CARTER’S POVGod, she was breathtaking.“Hello, Alvira. Where have you been? I have been looking everywhere for you.” I started.I looked at her, she looked like a breath of fresh air in the busy streets of New York. I could not stop looking at her. She had gotten even prettier, she looked plumper in all the right places and my God, did she look delicious. It felt like it was just us two in the world and all I could do was continue to look at her like my life depended on it. Oh! What a relief to finally set my eyes on her. I have been looking for her for ages and here she was, standing in front of me, looking just as radiant as she did a year ago, if not more in her simple but elegant outfit.She was dressed in a simple plaid shirt and plain grey pants, the outfit holding just the right parts of her. Her hair was in a sleek ponytail and she had some cute fancy hair pins to hold off extra strands or just to accessorize, I could not tell but they looked gorgeous on her all the same.I

    ALVIRA’S POV“These are the files you requested for ma'am. I also added the due diligence report you asked for and dropped some of my notes for you.” Jane, my assistant, said, walking into the office and gently placing the folder on my table.“Thank you, Jane. I will go through them in a minute and then we will have the meeting with the finance and marketing department on the next step. Please schedule it for tomorrow morning. I want to have this project done and over by the end of this week.” I said. “Of course, ma. I will get to that immediately.”“Thank you. And one more thing, Jane..”“Yes?”“How are your studies? I hope you are taking them seriously?” I asked.“Of course ma’am. Trust me, passing my finals is all that matters to me right now.” she enthused.“That is the spirit. Keep it up.” “Thank you ma’am. Your support to me these past few months have been everything to me.”“Come on. It is nothing. You can go on with your work now.” I said.“Alright ma.”I immediately went th

    ALVIRA’S POVIt had been three months since I was discharged from the hospital and began living with the Zimmerman family and all I can say is that, if it has been nothing but a blessing being with these lovely souls. I was able to not only see but to also have a first hand experience of what unfiltered love felt and looked like. It was such a breath of fresh air to see James continuously fawning over Cecil. I loved watching the way they would flirt with each other endlessly, her grin permanently plastered on her face. It was just so refreshing. Lucas always gagged and behaved like he was disgusted by it and it pleased me to continually tease him about it endlessly. The look on his face was always priceless. Clarissa had finally come back to the states and it has been a somewhat smooth ride all along. It was refreshing to be around people who were there to help me get out of tough times. I was not completely out of the woods yet but I could already see the light at the end of the tu
