They continued talking about random things without trying to touch on any personal topics. Finally, they were done with breakfast.

"This is one of the longest breakfasts I have had," Lila began and he threw her a look. "Breakfast is usually something that is done in a hurry to meet up with the hustle and bustle of the day," she added, trying to explain to him.

He wanted to tell her that they could have breakfast together from then on but he did not know if it was crossing the line or if they were cool enough for that to happen between them.

"I hope it was worth the length." He said and she nodded.

"It wasn't bad." She scrunched up her nose, ready to get up.

"I have some business I need to attend to, so you can go to the room yourself and I will meet you there later," Levi broke the news to her.

"Oh," she settles back into the chair. She thought they would go back up together, but for some reason walking alone to the room scared her. What if she made a mistake again and it result

  • Legacy of Love and War   ONE HUNDRED AND TWO

    A FEW DAYS LATERLevi had an off day, and he suggested that they see a movie together at the theatre. Lila agreed without thinking too much about it; after all, she was glad that the distance between them might be resolved by this. She did not know what he was thinking since he did not say a word about it and the air around them was tense. She missed how it was when they were friends and stayed together instead of how it is between them now.All she got from him were mumbles of greeting and a bare, halfhearted 'How are you?'; it was as if she was forced to live in a nightmare. She hated how it felt and hoped that this would change how things were between them once and for all.Levi told Mary to get them popcorn and some soda before he went on to get the theatre ready. Lila went on to change out of her clothing and put on perfume for reasons unknown to her as well. They sat in the theatre and watched the movie quietly until it came to an end and Levi was ready to move on. He didn't kno

    Lila muttered a jumble of words before excusing herself and walking away at once. She could not believe how shameless Fiona was but then she was trying to understand her; she had tried to do the same thing just a few days ago. She had been trying to put them together so why was she angry now that the woman was taking action by herself?Lila had Victoria come over later in the morning. "Oh my goodness, you did not tell me that you lived in such a lovely place," Victoria gushed as soon as they got into the house."I am sure that you live in a much better place." Victoria rolled her eyes and shrugged."I mean this place looks more like a home than any other house I have been in in the last ten years." Lila tried to ignore that what her sister said was right."I saw your ad," Toria said, breaking the silence between them. Lila knew that her sister was there because of the ad, but she did not want to be the one to bring it up first."I am sure you did; it's pretty popular right now." Lila

    Lila could not help but feel heartbroken and a tad bit depressed about everything that had happened. She was still not aware of what Levi had done that night because he did not mention it, and her mom did not say anything about it either. She was just lying around all day, trying to fill the void she had in her with as much junk as she could get. She was trying her best not to crash out, but she would find herself constantly breaking down in sobs throughout the day, and surprisingly, every time that happened, Levi was there to console her."You aren't going to work today either?" she asked when she realised he had not returned to work three days later."I am not" was all he said as they continued munching on breakfast."If it is because of me, you know you do not have to worry," she said, taking in his casual clothing. He had done enough for her and she did not want to feel more indebted to him on the case."It's not." She looked at him as he stared down at his plate, not daring to lo

    Levi was able to see her location on his phone, and he was glad that he had agreed to share his location with her because now he would not have been able to know where she was. He drove down to the bar with such a speed that it would be enough to cause an accident. He was worried if she was as drunk as toulk out; who knows what anyone could do to her in that state? His grip on the steering wheel tightened, and his eyes flared with anger as he thought of what could have happened at her parents' house to cause her to think of drinking as much as she did. He wondered why her parents were like that, why they tortured her so much.He barely parked the car when he flew out of the car into the bar and walked in; his eyes scanned the entire room until they fell on her by the corner of the room. He let out a sigh of relief to see that no one had really noticed her and she was sleeping soundly. He walked to her and took her bag, hanging it over his shoulders before shaking her briefly."Who are

    Lila had been so elated to see how viral the commercial she had done was. Everyone was complimenting her beauty, and with how many people were sharing the picture, it soon became the talk of the town."The commercial was a success," Levi said with a smile as they sat down for breakfast that morning."I see that and I think we have my beauty to thank for that" she said in a teasing voice and with a smile."I do not doubt that even for a second," Levi said, making her heart skip a beat. He was agreeing to the fact that she was good-looking. This was supposed to be a normal conversation, so she could not understand why it made her belly chime with joy. "Let's celebrate," Levi suggested when he realised the silence in the room."Celebrate?""Yes, the success of the commercial – I think it is worth celebrating.""Okay, what do you have in mind?""Maybe some fancy dinner and then we can hit the bar afterwards for some drinks? What do you think?" He asked, hoping she would not turn him down.

    Levi was not thinking about anything; he could clearly tell from where he stood that Lila was uncomfortable with this man that had made his way into the room and was forcing himself on her."What are you doing?" Levi barked at him. The man seemed to take it as a challenge because he squared his shoulders and pushed out his chest as if to show he was a tad better than Levi."Talking to the pretty lady before you interrupted us," he replied. Lila was stunned at his response. He knew that Levi was still the boss and yet he wanted to go head-to-head with him? How nice, she thought to herself, taking a deep breath."And were you not taught that if a pretty lady says no, then she means no?" Levi asked. Lila could only focus her mind on where he called her pretty. Even though she knew it was for context's sake, it felt good to be called pretty by him; when the man in front of her had said it, she felt good but not as good as now with the butterflies in her stomach and the pounding of her che
