“I —- Freya." "I came to get some coffee, Zed, so save it." She continued She wasn't prepared to hear his excuses. Soraya was his choice, so be it. It was going to be difficult for her, but she was prepared to face it. She wasn't prepared to throw herself at him by appearing overly desperate. "Freya?" A man in a fancy suit approached her table, where Zed was standing. Freya was perplexed for a moment before recognizing him.“Lucien?" She recalled this as she rose from her chair and hugged him tightly. His hands moved across her back and rested on her waist. She considered yanking his hands off, but decided against it in order to see Zed's reaction. Zed frowned and stormed off to his office. "I hope I didn't bother you guys." Lucien inquired. "Oh, you didn't. Where have you been? It's been a long time since university. She recalled as she motioned for a waiter to take Lucien's order."After school, I moved to France to launch my fashion brand." He smiled. "Wonderful, so what bring

Zed had started to miss Freya. She no longer visited his coffee shop. She either sent Carla or Jess took it to her on her way to class. Her school was close to Freya's office. He grew tired of his sexual relationship with Soraya. They didn't do anything else besides have sex with him, and that was the end of it. He expected her coming to find him to rekindle something within her, but he was mistaken. She just wanted him to make her happy.I can't keep going like this. I need to know where I stand. I need to know whether I'm in love with Soraya or with Freya. I must do so before it is too late. He reflected to himself. "Just stay away from me, Jesse." I trusted you. I thought you'd changed, but you haven't." Nichole addressed him. "I'm so sorry, Nichole. At the time, it was just a spur. I'm not sure what happened to me. Please!" He pleaded.Just once. "You blow it, that's it." She said, smiling at him. "Thank you. "How about I make it up to you?" "Let's go out to dinner tonight,

"I missed hanging out with you," Zed told Carla. "Thank you; I missed having you around. By the way, how are things going at work and with Soraya?" She was curious. "The work is quite good. I don't give a rat's a$$ about Soraya." He stated. Oh, I see you've turned cold on her again. When are you going to see her again? She took a sip of her iced tea. "Never, ever, ever." He added resolutely. "Hahaha, let's see," Carla chuckled. "I know I made a mistake, but I've learned my bitter lesson. I'm never going back to Soraya Wayne." He responded honestly.“"So why did you drag me out here?" She inquired. "When is Freya's birthday?" He asked out of the blue. "It's in two days." She replied. "OK, cool. I want to surprise her, and I need your help." He replied. "You hurt her again Zed, I'm going to kill you," Carla declared. "I'd take that as a yes." He scratched his neck in reply. "So, here's the plan..." He began.~“Can you come to my office now, Ace?" She said it through the buzz

Soraya began to miss Zed, which perplexed her. Why do I miss him? I could find a better man than him. Ugh. This feeling irritates me. She thought to herself as she banged her head on her work desk. Petty things had been reminding him of him ever since he had left. She would call his name from her room from time to time before remembering that he no longer lived with her.“I need to take a break, travel, and see the world. "I might meet someone much better than Zed Velasquez." She smiled to herself as she called to book a flight to the Maldives. "Hello, I'd like to book a flight from New York City to the Maldives," Soraya said. "Ma'am, when do you want to leave for the Maldives?" The woman inquired. "That's two days away, on Thursday." She replied. "First class, right?" She inquired. "Of course, Soraya Wayne doesn't do economy, eww." She added angrily.“Okay, your flight would depart at noon, and your ticket would be delivered shortly. Once again, thank you." She was informed by

“I was right in coming to get you from the office," Zed said as he entered Freya's office. She had an important meeting with some of the top fashionistas from all over coming up, and she was panicking, trying to make sure everything went smoothly. "Just five more Babe—-" Zed cut her off, planting a kiss on her lips and forcing her to respond immediately. "You need to rest and be pampered, love." He stroked her cheek.“ But I have work to do. She exhaled a sigh. "Freya, you've got this. They will adore everything you do." "They already like your collection, so relax and stop beating yourself up." Zed added as he picked up her bag. "Have you finished saving your files?" He inquired, and she nodded affirmatively. "Let's get some sleep." As they walked out, he took her hand in his.~Lex sat at the back of his apartment, reflecting on his mother's death. He had last seen her a few days ago, and now she was gone. She was his only surviving parent and family member. She was his best f

Soraya was having a great time in the Maldives, but she couldn't get Zed out of her mind. Brad was a gentleman, to be sure, but he wasn't Zed. Zed was simply a different person. He gave his time, love, and everything, but she didn't notice because she saw him as a poor man with nothing to offer. Why am I unable to get you out of my mind?! She exclaimed quietly to herself. Soraya, you're madly in love with him. That is the reason. Her conscience made her laugh. I don't want to because he's poor and his bad business can't afford my expenses for a week. "Zed Velasquez, get out of my head," she yelled as she smacked her head on her pillow.I will forget you, Zed Velazquez, no matter what it takes! She thought to herself.~“"Oh, I'm sorry," Jess said as the stranger drew her back. "Please excuse me?" She asked if she knew him from somewhere. "You're excused. Here's my card. Call me sometime." He placed it in her palm and kissed her on the lips before walking away, leaving Jess stunned

“This is simply not going to work. Soraya, we all agreed it was just for fun with no strings attached, so where is this all coming from?" Brad inquired as he buttoned his shirt. "I know, but I'm sick of all these games." "I'm looking for something genuine." She exhaled a sigh.I apologize; perhaps with someone else, but not with myself. "I'll see you around." Brad abandoned her. Is it really that difficult to find love? She questioned herself.“How was Zed able to hold onto me for so long? "Even though I treated him badly, he still loved me, and then my big mouth had to ruin everything." She muttered to herself. "Ah, we meet again," Miguel said, sitting in front of Jess. She had gone to see the manager of the shop she was about to rent to open her new salon in Jersey City. She was nearly finished with her course of study, and at this point, they were required to start their businesses in order to make up for their final grade and obtain their certificates. "Nice to meet you, Dr.

'Are you certain you want to go through with it?' Nikki and Nicolette both inquired at the same time. Nichole had decided to relocate to Italy in order to take over the family's other branch of business. "I am,I'm sick of sitting around doing nothing while everyone else works and then lives their best lives. I don't have anyone to confide in, no one with whom to go out and have fun. I should leave and start over somewhere else. Please, especially you, Nicolette, don't talk me out of it." She said this with firmness in her voice.“ What of me? Can I try?" Jesse inquired from behind her. Since that day, their relationship had been strained. "Jesse, you're the last person I'd listen to. My mind has been made up. I'm getting out of Jersey City. I apologize, but I need to do this for myself. I've been doing this and supporting you guys for quite some time. It's past time I became selfish and did something for myself. Please don't try to talk me out of it.'" She continued, "'Aren’t you go
