Enzo:

We were late. My hand ran down my face, and I heaved a heavy sigh of frustration. I was never late. Well, I guess it was expected.

Natasha took my hand and squeezed it. For what it was worth, her makeup was done expertly, and her dress was amazing. Tabitha wasn’t going to take this well at all.

“Are you ready to make heads turn?” she asked, beaming, showing her white, pearly teeth.

I pulled my hand away from her grip.

“This is only for tonight. We might be trying to draw the media’s attention, but let us still be professional about this.”

I couldn’t stop thinking about Tabitha. I had returned her missed calls, but she wasn’t picking up, which was strange because Nora was answering, and she said that Tabitha was with her phone. Shit! She was already pissed at me.

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    50. Tabitha

    Tabitha:It was almost time. The guests had already arrived, and everyone was asking me about Mr. Ross. I was running out of excuses. He said that he was going to pick up Natasha. Why the hell was he taking so long? She didn’t live on the other side of the planet, did she?I called him again, my heart pounding, my brain fighting to keep my thoughts straight and not think the worst about why he was taking so long with Natasha. “Why the hell won’t you pick up?” I gritted angrily between my teeth. This was the ninth call in the last hour. “Miss Hyest?”I turned around and, through the crowd, I could see the reporters making their way towards me. Without thinking, I took off, weaving through the crowd, trying my best to lose them.I had given them an excuse before, but the hungry paparazzi didn’t seem to take the bait long enough. I wasn’t sure I could keep this up. I lost them in the crowd and turned into a quiet corner. My heart was racing. The hall was air-conditioned, but I could f

    Enzo: I adjusted my shoulders and took a deep breath. I couldn't say that I was surprised. Natasha wasn’t one to be shy in her request. She has asked me for much more absurd things in the past than this. “As a couple, you say? I repeated calmly. Her face flushed gently and briefly, and she opened the door wider. “I told you that this was something that we had to talk about inside. Now, will you oblige?” We had about forty-five minutes before the launch started. “Alright. But this has to be brief. We need to get to the launch on time.” “Trust me, she smiled, making space for me to pass through the doorway. “I won't waste a second of your time.” The door closed gently, and I was in her living room. A wide space, decorated with flowers and lush indoor plants. The skylight was open, and natural light filled the living room, giving it a beautiful natural look to her thriving plants. “Now, about the couple thing.–” She reached for a glass on the centre table, poured

    Enzo:I’ve seen Tabby before with makeup and beautiful clothes. I could never get over how stunning she looked. In terms of beauty, I wasn’t sure that there was anyone who even came remotely close. However, the scowl on her face made me rethink saying anything to her. “What happened with Natasha?” she demanded, her voice still steady, despite the anger that was slowly rising on her face. “She has issues with her car, and she didn’t get an invitation.”Her lips turned down at the corners even more, and I took a deep breath. This was not going to pan out well. I had watched her grow, and as delightful as she was, when she was mad about something, she made sure to show it. Her father and I would laugh about the silly faces she made when she was mad or denied something she really wanted. Now, those faces were no longer silly, and I could feel the words knotting themselves in my throat the more she glared at me. “I thought you sent out all the invitations,” I said, a futile attempt to

    Tabitha:I grabbed the dress and walked out of the changing room. Enzo wasn’t waiting outside anymore. Who was I kidding? Did I really think that he was going to sit there and wait for me? He was probably really mad at me and was already waiting in the car. “Excuse me,”An attendant walked towards me with a smile on her face. “Did you like the dress? We still have more options if you are willing to look…”“No, thank you.” I cut her off with a smile. “This one is perfect.”“Lovely,” she replied, beaming harder. She looked exhausted, but I was impressed at how well she was hiding it. We walked to check out, and Enzo was there. I knew he saw me walk in, but he didn’t bat an eye or even raise his head to look at me. I said nothing. I put the dress on the counter and brought out my card as the lady bagged it for me. “No need to pay,” she said, stopping me. “The kind man already paid for you. Here you go.”My face burned red. Enzo still didn’t look up at me. How did he even know the pri
