BEN POVI sat on the sofa in my lounge trying to read the document on the table but my mind kept going back to Amelia. I could see her face everywhere and everytime. Everyone kept asking why I don't want to date or maybe get married. That's because I have been and I still am in love with Amelia. I remember the first day she came to school, I was assigned to show her around. She was so angelic and pure, I've never seen anyone like that before.**Flash back**I was running down the hallway to meet the students assigned to me. Freshmen were usually assigned to me, so I had gotten used to doing my job, but today I woke up late. And I just had to run before anyone noticed I was absent. I ran so fast that when I got to the reception I was panting, I rested my hands on my knees trying to catch my breath.“Here, you must be exhausted.”I heard a voice say, I looked up to see a girl smiling down at me handing a bottle of water to me. I stood up straight staring at her, not moving or saying a
LISA POV“I'm Amira.”I stared at the hand stretched out to me and back at the owner, who kept smiling at me. I don't know what to do with the hand in front of me, do I shake it or ignore it. She seems to know me very well but I don't remember a thing. Maybe if she stays a bit more I may remember her. With that thought I brought my hands to hers and shaked it.“I'm Lisa,” I said smiling, “it's nice meeting you, Amira.”“Likewise.” She said with a smile. Pulling her hands she turned back over Maya, “and you are?” Chuckling.“The crazy plumb,” Maya said laughing.“Come-on, that was a long time ago, don't hold grudges.” She said with a wide smile.“Well I don't really blame you though, I was a bad girl.” She laughed.“Can I sit, Lisa?” She asked, looking at me. I looked between her and Maya, and they were both staring at me for permission.“Oh, yeah, sure, why not?” I said gesturing to the space next to us. She smiled, taking the seat.“Thank you,” she said smiling, “you still have a sw
LISA POVJeremiah drove round a few times to calm both ourselves down. Completely drowned in the silence and slight vibrations of the car, my phone rang out startling me. I picked my phone up and looked at the screen,“Shit, it's Maya,” I said out loud and Jeremy looked through the raremirror at me, smiling. I slide to answer and said, “hey, Maya.”“Are you planning on going in circles all day?” She asked bored.“Circles?” I asked shocked, “can you see me?”She sighed, “I can see your car obviously. Why though?”“Erm…Maya….”She cuts in, “you know what I don't care, just get off that car and come in already, it's been 30minutes.”I chuckled, “yes ma'am.” About to end the call when I heard Maya say,“And don't think I won't ask why you're going in circles, ‘cause I will.”I smiled, “that's something you can do. I'm coming in now Maya.”She chuckled, “okay.” ending the call.I threw my phone back into my bag smiling, “you know where to stop, Maya's waiting.”He smiled tightly as we cont
LISA POVI stood in front of my father's office door with my hands suspended mid air as I tried to knock but couldn't, feeling stupid for listening to Maya's advice. She was confident that she gave the right advice and I just had to believe her.From all that she told me so far, I guess I can take the other ones. But my father is a total no. I concluded pulling my hands down as I turned to walk away, when the door pulled open making me freeze on my feet.“Pumpkin?” He said relieved,Smiling, I turned, “hey father,” I noticed the gun in his hands, “is something wrong? Are you okay?”“Of course, pumpkin. I just thought that someone was eavesdropping on my calls.” He smiled softly.I returned his smile, nervously, “alright then,I will be on my way.” I added, walking away and my stiletto heels made annoying noise with each step that I took, making me curse underneath my breath.I silently prayed that my father would ignore me and go back into his office but clearly luck wasn't on my side
BEN POVI sat in my study going through some paperwork of the things I bought for Lisa's apartment. I had to make sure that everything went well as planned. Immediately someone banged open my door, I looked up from the files to see my security trying to stop Mika who had a furious face from entering my study.I lifted my hands, “it's fine let her be,” it's not like he could stop Mika even if he wanted to. She's cute but deadly. “What a pleasant surprise Miss Brzezinski.”“Don't give that shit,” she said as she walked up to me and banged her hands on the desk, “what are you up to Ben?”Nonchalantly, I answered, “going through Lisa's apartment documents to see if I missed any detail, why?”“I know you're up to something Benard, and I won't let you do it.”“Oh for the love of God woman,you're being paranoid.”“Paranoid? I'm this way because of you, you refuse to tell me any of your plans,” She said, walking round the desk to my side, I turned my chair to face her, still holding up the fi
LISA POVI laid a few of my things on the bed. Some clothes, shoes, jewelry in a box and purse,but I couldn't find my mother's bracelet I now own. Sighing, I tied my hair up and began walking to my closet.I walked into my walk-in closet, opening all my drawers. Searching through it all and yet I couldn't find my bracelet.“Wow, I thought by now you'll be waiting for me, but it seems you're still busy,”I turned to see Maya standing at the entrance to my closet.I groaned, “I can't find my mother's bracelet.”“Bracelet? Lisa you have a lot of bracelets, losing one isn't supposed to bother you so much.” “No Maya, this is my favorite.” I said walking to the other side of my closet, going through the other drawers.“Fine,” she said, walking into my closet, “what exactly are we looking for?”“You know, the silver bracelet with diamonds.”“Wait. With actual diamonds?”Without sparing her a glance, I walked to where I threw most of the jewelry I don't use.“Of course. My father got it made
