A week has already passed since the night Amber had dinner with Matthias and his mom. A lot has changed since that night. Mrs. Westwood started calling or texting Amber, asking her about her day or about him and Matthias. Amber didn't find that weird at all, she just felt like maybe Matthias' mom is starting to like her, too. As soon as she stepped out of their classroom, she immediately received a call from Matthias. "Hey."'Where are you' Matthias asked.Amber chuckled, "Class just got dismissed. I'm just on my way to the coffee shop now."'I miss you already,'"It's been only a week. You're going to spend a month there, remember?"She heard Matthias let out a deep sigh, 'It's hard because you couldn't even leave that stupid university and coffee shop to be with me here.'"Oh, there he goes again. Sulking like a baby."'Why? That's the truth. Why don't you just admit that you value those things than your boyfriend?'"I already told you I can't go there with you because I didn't wa
"Are you tired already?" Matthias asked as soon as they finished. Still breathing heavily because of the intensity of what they just did, Amber looked at him with furrowed brows, "You said you only have five condoms, right? Why do you talk like you still have more?" "That is never a problem, babe. So, do you want some more?" "N-No. I'm already tired." Matthias chuckled as pulled Amber close to him and kissed her hair, "I wish we could stay like this forever." "Me too..." "You know exactly how that would happen." Amber rolled her eyes, "Right. I already told you I would marry you, okay? After my graduation. You just have to promise me that you would let me strive for my dreams." "Of course. I will let you do whatever you want to do in life. As long as I know that you are only mine forever, that's already enough for me." "Really?" "Really." Amber smiled as she sat up then leaned in to kiss Matthias. When she moved away, Matthias looked at her with a confused look
"What? Are you still going to argue with me?" Matthias said while looking at Amber. Amber shook her head, "How can I even argue with someone like you who already made up his mind obviously?" "That's my girl. I'll just take a bath. Do you want to come with me?" "W-What are you even saying..." Amber mumbled while averting her gaze from Matthias. "You don't want to? Alright. Just wait for me then." "W-Wait for you? And why would I have to wait for you?" Amber asked while looking at Matthias with her brows furrowed. "You know exactly why you're here, Amber. Don't act fool now," Matthias said before he stepped inside the bathroom. Hera could still feel her whole face getting hotter because of what Matthias just said. She sat on the edge of the bed and just roamed her eyes around Matthias' room. She already spent so many nights in Matthias house but to her, it still feels so new whenever she does. About what they were talking about a while ago, she couldn't help but think
Amber got surprised when Matthias told her they would be having a dinner with his mom a week after she belittled her in front of Hannah Wesley. "Are you sure she told you to invite me, too?" she asked Matthias while they were in the car on the way to the restaurant where they would be meeting Mrs. Westwood."Of course. If she didn't invite you, do you think I would agree on meeting with her?" "B-But--"There is no escaping now, Amber. You're going with me whether you like it or not."Amber just heaved a deep sigh as she leaned on her seat. She still couldn't stop thinking about Matthias' mom and the reason why she decided to have dinner with them again. She immediately reached for Matthias' hand the moment they arrived at the restaurant. Matthias got surprised by how she acted, but then smiled and whispered, "I think I like it when you're this clingy towards me. I think we should always have dinner with my mom now.""Stop teasing me now. I'm already feeling nervous...""What are yo
As soon as Matthias stepped inside his house, he immediately noticed his mother sitting on the couch with her arms crossed over her shoulder."What are you doing here? Didn't I say that I don't ever want to see you again?"His mom laughed sarcastically then stood up, "What a cold greeting for your beloved mother. I heard you've been missing me for so many years. Can you at least show me how much you've longed for me?""Leave now. I don't have time to mess with you.""I won't leave unless you listen to me first."Matthias glared at her, "If you're here to convince me to marry that slut again, then you're just wasting your time.""I won't force you to marry her anymore since it's so obvious that you love that Amber so much. I'm just here to apologize to everything that I said that night. I know it's been so long since the last time we saw each other and I even had the guts to say those things to you and to your girlfriend. I am really sorry, my son. I swear I regret doing that."Matthia
Tears started cascading down her cheeks as soon as Amber sat down in front of her parents' grave. She went there after talking to Matthias' mom. "Mom, Dad, how are you doing there in heaven? I hope you're happy there watching over us. You already know Matthias, right? He is now my boyfriend..." She wiped the tears from her eyes and forced herself to smile, but the tears just won't stop flowing from her eyes, "The truth is, his mother doesn't like me. It's because I am not in the same social status as they are. I admit I feel so belittled the entire time I was in front of them. She told me so many reasons why I don't deserve Matthias. Well, she was actually right. And I understand her since she is the mother of Matthias. But I love Matthias, and I don't think I could love any other man..." Amber continued crying in front of her parents' grave until she finally felt better. She wiped the tears from her eyes and looked at her parents' grave once again, "I think I feel fine now. It
