~~~THREE YEARS LATER ~~~ISABELLAI was able to convince mom and dad that I want to come back home with my baby, and they said yes. Right now, I'm in the plane, about to land. I haven't seen my family in years and my family hasn't seen the new toddler that was sitting right next to me. She looks up at me, I smiled and she giggles. She's always like that. She loves funny faces. I sigh when I realized that I'll be going back to a tensed home that may one day ask me who the father of the child is. I don't have the answer to that, that's my only reply. As soon as we got of the plane, I decided to by Kim some ice cream. She loves ice cream. Back then in my labour days, I got sick. The doctor said that I'm not eating well. Honestly, I thought I was gonna give birth to twins because of how big my bump was. But look at this adorable little girl. She's so cute, she looks so much like........I sigh when I just realized something, I was thinking about him again. I stalk his Instagram and X a
ISABELLAWe all had our first dinner since I came back. It was really quiet, I used the silence and tension to feed my baby. "Isabella, I want you to do something for me" dad spoke. I looked at him.I noticed mom and Ethan were looking elsewhere. "Okay daddy" I replied, waiting to hear what he wants me to do. I noticed he was smiling at Kim. "She looks very familiar" he said. My eyes widened. I wouldn't want him to know. "She has beautiful gray eyes" he said. Kim stared at him with a blank face as she chew her food. "What do you think about working in one of my trusted business partner's office..... he's looking for a personal assistant for just two months" he said. I gulp. For goodness sake, I have a baby to take care of. "Dad, Kimberly....." I trailed off. He sigh, looking at mom and Ethan. What are they planning."We hired a care taker for her. You need a lot of rest" he said. I looked at Kim and she stare right back at me with her feeder in her hold, as if she understands what w
ISABELLAThe girls are coming over! I miss them so much. Yes, it Nika and Gia. It's gonna be so fun. Actually, they both are like the best people to get comfortable with. They made me feel like I had friends for the first time in my life. Nina and Katie are still my friends but I'll take this two bitches as my bestie.I never got disappointed at them for anything and they never disappoint me, ever. That's why I made cupcake. I set them on my bed with some glasses.I heard the sound of the door bell downstairs. I immediately left the room and heading downstairs. I heard the sound of giggles as Ethan opens the door with Kim in his arm. Nika was now with the child and Kim giggles, grabbing her hair hair."She's so cute, look at her eyes" Gia tickles her. They looked up at me, Gia rushes over to the stairs with a grin on her face. She quickly hugs me, I hug her back. "I've missed you so much" she said.Nika walks over to me and set Kim to the ground, pulling me into a hug. "it's been a wh
ISABELLAI can't believe Dad actually did this to me. Where did he get the idea from. Was it why they were all looking at me. What am I gonna say. I took in a deep breath slowly walked. "Shut the door" he spoke. Homly Mary of Jesus, that was husky and sexy. Isabella! That's Quincy you're talking about. I gulp a shut the door. I slowly walk towards the seat in front of his desk. I looked elsewhere but him. I am not prepared for this. What do I do right now. I didn't say a word. I sat there staring at the office. It's so big."Why are you here, Ms Austin?" He asked. What was that? Ms Austin? I eyed the guy up and down. "My father forced me, Mr Grey" I replied the same way he woke. He nods his head. "So you never wanted this job?" He asked professionally. This is so unusual. I cleared my throat. "Talk to me Ms Austin, you're wasting my previous time" he said sternly."I'll work" I replied. He looks different, more mature, professional. He acts the same way too. He's so handsome, more
QUINCY"Why did you send her back?" Isabella's Dad said. I rub my forehead. I'm so sick of all this question. It's not like it's my duty, he's her dad, not me. "She's not qualified for the job" I replied. He chuckled. I sigh. "Call her back" he ordered. I rolled my eyes."I don't have her number" I replied. My phone beeps, I look through it and saw her phone number. "That's her phone number" he replied. "I want you to call her now" he said. I was silent. Why are they doing this to me. "Son, I don't want you to regret things later. They are things that you are not aware of right now. Trust what I'm doing is for you to know" he said.Why does it look like everyone are keeping a secret from me, my friends, Ethan, Stephan, Isabella - she's not my friend though, then now, her father. Maybe this may be a good opportunity to find out what he's hiding. I can't even pick a guess cause it's not like I've done something. "I'll call her now" I replied. Let me tell you one thing about Isabell
QUINCY It was too good to be true, everything was too good to be true. She was the motherly figure I was searching for Kai. The way she plays and takes care of him. It all felt surreal. I secretly watch them as they play dice in the parlour. It's so cute. I had to order food for them because its already break and she doesn't even know how long she and him has been playing and talking. I internally smiled. Till I remembered that I wasn't supposed to be looking at her. Shit.Quincy, snap out if it, that's just her plan, to get your attentions. I won't be giving it to her. She's still not good for us. She may run away anytime, anywhere. When she told Kai that's she's his mother, my body felt relaxed and I don't really know why. I felt like I trusted her to keep him safe. He was in an innocent and safe hand. But was she really innocent, after all this years that she made me depressed and miserable. It's as if she wants to do it all over again, keep making me miserable. I watched as t
ISABELLAAfter Quincy had finished his meal, it was remaining the both of us in the kitchen. I don't know why everyone left us alone here. He turns to look at me again, it was the same look he was giving me earlier."What?" I asked. He turn his body to my side. He looks at the ground, his grey eyes bore into mine. They remind me of Kim. "You're hiding something from me, I really want to know" he said. I gulp, he watches me carefully. "Isabella, what are you hiding from me? I wouldn't like to find out from another person" he said, it sounded like a warning. I looked away from him. He stood up from the stool. "If you want me to forgive you......you better open up" he said before walking towards the door."Let's hang out together" I blurted. He stops on his track. I turn to face him and so did he. "Let's......go on a date after work tomorrow" I said."No, I won't..... it's better we keep our distance. And also keep ourselves professional" he replied before walking out of the kitchen. I
ISABELLAHonestly, I couldn't imagine myself in a restaurant with Quincy as we wait for the Harry James he was talking about. He gave me some work to do when I was thinking it'll just be a peaceful brunch. I was filling some paperwork, it's actually his work not mine. I got tired and placed my head on the table. "Are you trying to sleep at work hours?" He snapped me back up. I eyed him with a glare."You should be happy I'm doing your work for you" I hissed. I grab the paper in my hold."Maybe you don't get what it means by assistant. You are to do whatever I ask for" he replied. I scoffed. So annoying. A man walks into the restaurant, he started looking around till his eyes landed on Quincy. He smiled before walking towards us. "Mr Grey" he spoke. Quincy looks up at him, he stood up and so did I. "Mr James, it's good to see you again" they shake hands. I smiled at the good looking man. "This is my assistant, Isabella Austin" Quincy introduced. I Shaked his hand."It's nice to mee
