"Dear diary, today is my best day because momma said she will take me to Disneyland on my tenth birthday, which is next week. I am so excited and this weekend I will go shopping and buy everything in pink."After 13 days;
"Dear diary, welcome me. I am back from my dream place. How do I express my happiness? It was one of my best gifts and I am thrilled. I have a lot of pictures and I am going to paste them onto this page, so whenever I will open this page, I'll recollect my memory."Every picture was telling Isabella's happiness. Either she was on Mickey Mouse or her father's shoulder. Her pose was different in every picture except for her bright smile, which brightened up the picture and the person who would see it.
Alexander couldn't stop himself from looking at those pictures again and again. And she is now different from the past. Looking at those pictures one last time, he turned the page and saw it was blank, then went to the next page. It was blank again, but then he found a folded page after turning a few pages. As soon as he opened it, one word was written: "Forever shattered."
Alexander closed the book and threw it again in the drawer in irritation, but there was no explanation why. He has a sudden mood swing after seeing the word.
He dialed his assistant's number. "Send me our marketing script." The call ended, and the voice was cold enough to shiver the other person on the phone.
"Yes, boss," the assistant gulped his saliva and answered, looking at the black screen.
★★★ At Isabella's house, Bethany and Danny wear Isabella's old sleepwear, as they had suddenly planned this, and after they come down, they help Isabella's father. However, her father had almost finished cooking. They were doing the dishes, so after dinner, there wouldn't be a huge pile of dishes left to wash."Sunny, dude, how are you? Do you know a coincidence?" As the voice questioned Sunny, who was making the dinner table, turned his face towards the person.
"Every time we are here, the person whom we meet is you," Bethany said and walked out of the kitchen, at the same time wiping her hand with the cloth.
Isabella was drinking water, but she choked upon hearing the flatness of Bethany's words. She put down the water bottle and came outside to them.
"Sunny, how are you? Thank God, father has called you to come. It was a long time since we haven't met each other. How is your job?" Isabella said with a smile. She was quick, not wasting a single time she rained on sunny with questions.
Bethany tousled her hair and rolled her eyes at Isabella's exaggerated concern for the boy and sat down.
"I'm great, Bella, and the job is great. Yes, today Uncle Bernard called me and it's my pleasure to have dinner with you all," Sunny answered Isabella, then turned to Bethany.
"How are you, Bethany?" Sunny's sudden question not only stunned Isabella as well as Bethany. They didn't think Sunny would talk to Bethany of his own accord."I am good," Bethany answered, and her tone softened a lot. Obviously, how could she talk rudely again when the person acted so generously?
"By the way, Sunny, do you have a girlfriend?" Danny asked as she exited the kitchen, holding a pot. Her eyes looked at Sunny then shifted to Bethany, who was busy decorating the salad, but her this doing didn't miss Isabella's eyes.
"Umm! Difficult to answer because no woman likes me and I am also searching," Sunny answered with a gentle voice; he was the perfect definition of a gentleman.
"Sunny, my boy, it cannot be possible that women don't like you. It's just they are waiting for your approach," Isabella's father, Bernard, commented. He was wearing an apron with two big bowls in both hands and came to the table.
"Ah, my sweet home is crowded because of you guys. My girl isn't like you. Sometimes I feel lonely here. I request you to come to my home often and make my house happy and full," Bernard said with a smile, but couldn't help himself from expressing his median loneliness.
"Finally, uncle Bernard, you said something we have long wanted to hear. I thought we had troubled you a lot that's why our Isabella doesn't ask us to come her home frequently, but now I guarantee, you will see us all the time, whether your daughter likes it or not," Bethany responded lightly, tapping the table, showing her firmness and then Danny joined, "Definitely, we will come. Once we earn, we will give you rent for living here."
"Haha! Lovely. I must count the days from today," Bernard said and his hand reached to the plate as he was about to serve when Isabella stopped him.
"Let me, you are tired, Papa," Isabella said and was worried because she could see that her father was sweating.
"No! I'm not tired. I'm not old. Besides, can't you see how happy I am?" Bernard replied to his girl as Isabella's voice was showing unnecessary concern. He was overjoyed, having a satisfying meal he was craving. Especially after the loss of Isabella's mother, whatever food the father and daughter ate always felt unsavory.
Because they miss a person whenever they sit at the dining table, especially looking at the chair where she used to sit.
"Isabella is right, uncle Bernard. We asked you for just one dish, but you've cooked a lot. You shouldn't. We're absolutely fine with one dish," Bethany adoringly complained. They love uncle Bernard like their father.
"It's okay, sweetheart. Anything for you, girls. Let's eat before the food becomes cold," Bernard proposed, and everyone's cutlery started performing, especially Danny and Bethany's, they are literally gobbling the food.
Sunny was a bit amused seeing Bethany. The way she was eating was a little funny. He asked, and why it came to his tongue he didn't know, "Seems like you didn't eat today, Bethany."
The spoon on Bethany's hand stopped, and she raised her head towards the voice while her mouth was stuffed with food, and could not let out a single word.
"Hm," a faint tone with rapid nodes only answered Sunny's question. While Danny and others laughed out loud.
"Yes, we didn't eat today because Isabella created a mess in the canteen, haha… Oops!" Danny shut it after revealing the truth. Her eyes looked at Isabella, who just tilted her head. Bethany choked on the food as she opened her mouth to say something, and seeing this, Sunny stood and poured water on the glass and sent it to Bethany.
"Thank you," Bethany said, looking toward Sunny, and he just sent her a nod.
"Okay girls, can you please enlighten me on what Bella did in the college?" Bernard asked with a calm face. It was very rare for him to know that her daughter did something, and for this reason, his curiosity piqued."Nothing, Dad," replied Isabella, while her fork poked the mushrooms on her plate, showing precisely her reluctance.
"Bella, tell me. Have you got a boyfriend?" Bernard said, although he knew it wasn't right, his daughter had a unique choice when it's to making a partner because he had been seeing her since high school. At every prom, Bella used to get a lot of proposals, but in the end, she went to the prom with the girls who did not get a partner.
"No uncle, if it is about the boyfriend, then we would celebrate tonight. Actually, our college has a new President, and he is also the owner of our college which we know today, and with a new president, there are a lot of rules that have changed. While we were in the canteen, that new president came and they discussed shutting Rachel's canteen.
Our Bella got angry and in anger, she pushed a table in front of the president. Later that day, the president summoned her, and this is the entire story." Danny cleared everything in one breath and drank a glass of water.
"Dang! Bella, I am proud of you. Finally, you have turned on your Lioness," Bernard's reply struck everyone in the head. They looked at Isabella's father as if he was joking, but they were flabbergasted at seeing the cheerful smile.
"Give me a high five, uncle Bernard. We said the same," Bethany said, and high five Bernard.
"Did he punish you for that?" asked Bernard, turning to his daughter."No, just warned me," answered Isabella and finished her eating and everyone finished as well. The dinner was sumptuous. Sunny thanked everyone, especially Bernard, and hugged him.
"Bye, Son. Come home often. Our unfinished chess was still procrastinating, don't forget," Bernard said and hugged back Sunny.
"Bye everyone," after saying this Sunny opened the door and exited. That's when Bethany's eyes caught a wallet on the sofa.
"Whose wallet is that?" asked Bethany, picking up the wallet."Sunny's, the damn boy has forgotten his wallet. Go give it to him, he is not gone yet," ordered Bernard and headed to the kitchen while Danny yawned and Bella followed her father to the kitchen before Bethany could make an excuse.
"Fuck you," Bethany stridden out while cursing the two.
★★★★ "Hey, wait." Just as Sunny was about to start his bike when a voice heard behind him. He saw it was Bethany, and it made him think about the reason because she wasn't a kind of easy-going girl, but he found her interesting."Hi. Can I help you with something?" Sunny asked as he parked the bike, hooking the key in his finger he came to the woman, and his tone was so relaxing, just like a well-mannered man. And his accent was good too, more like a Scottish man. "Yes, help me by taking your wallet, which you have forgotten," said Bethany, extending her hand with his wallet. Sunny's hand also reached toward his pocket in a hurry, and yes, his pocket was empty. "Thank you. I didn't realize," Sunny took his wallet and said. He wanted to talk a little more with her, but Bethany shook her head and turned. "Bethany." he couldn't help himself from calling her. "Yes," Bethany turned and replied. Her eyes noticed his flushed ears. "Can I… have your number?" Sunny coughed to complete a
★★★ A man was sitting comfortably on a big divan, facing the fireplace, while his hand was holding a glass of whisky. Then suddenly, the corner of his lips lifted into a sneer and his voice resonated, "Hello, Satan. I was waiting for you."A big figure flapped his wings and flew toward the sitting man, and the man didn't sit back, he also turned into a devil, changing his green eyes to red and opening his black wings, while his wing took him higher to dodge the attack of Satan. "You never have done this in hell, but today you are on fire because of that girl. Isn't it amazing?" the red-eyed devil said and rushed to Satan, Alexander."As I've already declared in hell that only I can play with my prey and I will decide when she will die or how long she will live," Alexander growled at the devil and lobbed a punch toward him, but it didn't fall on the devil, however, it destroyed the ceiling. "You are breaking the rules. Her death has been written about a long ago, but you are stopp
★★★★ "Hey, girls… Umm. How's Paoli?" Danny asked, along with Isabella and Bethany. "As you care," one girl of Paoli's group rudely answered them. Last night because of Isabella she drank a lot and swore to take revenge on her but then they heard her accident news. "Don't be rude, we are also human. Our mentality is not the same as yours," Bethany retorted back angrily when Isabella grabbed her arms and dragged both of them from that group. "They're terrible," murmured Danny, while Isabella opened her mouth, "We can go to the hospital to visit her because we only have two classes today. There will be no fruit bickering with them.""Let's go to the class," Bethany said, and they headed towards the class, but to their surprise outside their class, they heard their principal's voice, so they quickly reached the door.With their arrival, everyone's attention turned toward them, and so did their principal. But a man was also standing next to their principal; as Isabella's eyes fell o
★★★ "Hey, Bella, what did Xavier say? Has he asked you for the date?" Danny raised a question, seeing Bella scrolling her phone so intently, her facial expression seemed much more relaxed than a few seconds ago, as if a calmness had just showered down on her head. "No, he is weird. Also, his words cannot be trusted. Furthermore, have you noticed that after our president changed, another member joined our college management, Mr. Xavier? When I met him last night at the bonfire, I thought he was a senior," Isabella murmured, placing the phone inside her bag. While she didn't mention the email, that didn't mean she didn't want to. She was planning to tell them later after visiting Paoli and George. "What? You've already met him!" A loud gasp with astonishing words came out of Bethany's mouth. "Yeah and I misunderstood him as a senior," replied Isabella and pivoted back sharply, jerking two innocent hearts as they almost leaped from their ribcage. "What the fuck are you doing?" Dan
★★★★ "Why?" Bethany asked as she braked the car side of the road. Danny and Bethany both turned their heads questioningly in the backseat to Isabella. "Got an email from that devil. He asked me to come to his company. He said I need to see a video about that marketing script, which is necessary, that he told," Isabella replied, then brought out her phone and opened the camera to see if she was ready as she was about to enter a reputable company. "Ah! Ask him about the salary," Danny said and handed her a small mirror and light-colored lipstick. "How will you go back to your house? Or call me. I will send my driver," Bethany suggested, looking at Bella."Don't worry, I am not a small girl. Also, I know how to hail a cab. Thank you for thinking so much about me. Now drive the car and the address is in my mail. Wait, let me open it first," Isabella said with a smile. She feels so pampered with both of them. "No need, I know the address, my father always talks about Luther's indust
★★★★"Yes boss," the man went stiff also his words, they left his mouth in fear. The hand which rose to hold Bella turned rigid in the mid-air. Bella looked at the man and felt bad because it was not his fault, either. There was a pile of files in front of his face, so this collision happened. Not only this but he was also scolded because he tried to help her without collecting the files. As she had already assumed that the devil wouldn't treat anyone well."Let me help you," Isabella said and was about to squat down to give him some help when Alexander roared again, "If you want him to get his full salary this month, let him do that."Isabella's disbelieving eyes couldn't help but gaze at the man and searched for his morals. There was not a single quality that could make Isabella feel good about this person. He is the devil not only in his personal life but also in his professional life.Hearing Alexander, Isabella didn't answer. He was clear, and she wouldn't want this nice man
★★★★ "You are a devil. I can see through you. You smell like a devil, your soul is corrupted by sin, Bella," said Paoli with a defiant voice, wiping her tears."No, Paoli. You hate me, so you want me to repent," said Isabella, disagreeing with Paoli's every word."My life was so beautiful before, but now I can't live with this life. You are the reason for what I am going to do now, Bella. You are a devil in human skin," said Paoli, and headed to the window. She turned back and smiled one last time. "Your existence will damage mankind. Only bones and flesh will remain in your presence in the future." Paoli climbed into the window."What are you doing, Paoli? Get down," shouted Bella, her feet and hands trembling. Bella ran towards her, but as she progressed, the window was going ahead with Paoli and there was a white mist around her. She kept running, but still the same. The more she ran, the farther the window went."Paoli, get down. Listen to me. We can talk. If you want me to say
★★★ "Huh! What does he think of himself? He is so proud of his looks and beliefs that anyone would fall for that. No way. And bullshit agreement," Isabella muttered, gritting her teeth, her annoyed face evincing irritation. However, it's not exactly an irritation. It was some sort of bug that had stimulated her blooming part. When she reached the reception area, she did not realize this. In her anger, she ignored the receptionists, who were looking at her in disbelief because they didn't know when an unknown woman had walked upstairs.They were not aware that they had spoken to her, or that she had an appointment. Also, which floor did she go to, hopefully not the seventeenth floor? Besides, the boss didn't call them, so she didn't go to him, they were sure. Because they saw many mad women crying and begging to meet their boss, hatching a vicious conspiracy.Therefore, before allowing someone to visit their boss's floor, they thoroughly looked at that person's background as well as
