8 Years Later:
While busy working constantly, her attention got caught by the gentle knock on her office door. Her eyes automatically went through the door expecting her secretary to come inside.
"Bea, here are the flowers you've ordered from the nearby flower shop." Liz- her Personal Secretary in the firm handed her flowers that just got delivered. She was stunned for a while then took out a deep sigh as she remembered what the date is.
"Oh yeah, thank you, Liz... " She took the flowers then gave her a polite smile.
It has been eight years had passed. Today was Mackie's eighth death anniversary, the good friend they lost at early age.
She often remembers him especially the month of his death. She still missed him and never forgets him even after eight years had passed. When you lost a good friend you love, you will never forget them no matter how time goes by. Hannah and she used to"Working overtime?" From being busy with the paper works on her office table, she heard someone talked that caught her attention from what she's doing. Her face automatically brighten up when she saw Matt's face in the half-opened door of her office. She just summoned a late meeting with her designers on the new big project so she was hands-on with this big project they will have. After the two-hour meeting, she went straight to her office to check some paper works to deal with when Matt came."What brought you here?" She said giving him warm smile and stood up motioning him to come inside."I was actually waiting for you outside when I saw some employees going home expecting their boss will come out soon. But it seems like the lady boss has no plans on going home or take a rest so I bother to come inside and take her home." He said smiling while eyeing those papers and designs spread all o
When they arrived at the reception of the Wedding Anniversary of Matt's parents, as expected he introduced her to his relatives and friends. He introduced her to his college varsity teammates and close friends. She felt glad to meet them all and they all seemed genuinely happy to meet her too. She met and hang out with some of them because she had been friends with Matt for quite some time before he decided to confess and feelings and court her. Their both fathers were best friends and that's the reason their friendship was built too. Her father attended the celebration too and she greeted him the moment they came to the party. In fact, her Dad was fond of Matt and he like him for her. Her Dad told her that, a long time ago.Everyone was so nice to her, especially Matt's family. They had known her for years and now that he brought and introduce her on this special occasion as the girl he was courting not a friend anymore just like before. They seemed very
A frustrated sigh escaped her lips in the office as she was greeted by a deck of paper works. It was a manic Monday knowing she will have a very busy day ahead. She took two days off in the office for a long weekend in preparation for meeting Matt's family and relatives so she expected to deal with bunches of paper works as soon as she comes back to the office. "Good morning, Bea." Cheerfully greeted by Liz, her Assistant/Secretary. "Good morning, Liz." She greeted back. Liz doesn't usually call her Ma'am because she knew she doesn't like a formality. She was comfortable working with someone who can treat her with no superiority and could build mutual trust with. Liz was an efficient and reliable Assistant/Secretary and it's her will to call her by her name for they had treated each other more like friends. "Looks like I got lots of things to finish within the day uh..." She mumbled as she walk towards
Driving straight through their meeting place, she reached the place in just about ten minutes. When she entered the food establishment and proceeded to their reserved table as she was guided by the maitre d', her heart suddenly skipped a beat when she finally saw Thyago from afar. He was scanning her features while she walks forwardly to his place. Did he immediately noticed and recognized her? How long he had been waiting? Did she keep him waiting? Well as far as she was concerned, she just arrived in time.She somehow bothers to look at her wristwatch to make sure of the time. As she continued walking through their reserved table, she confidently stared back at him while deep inside she was trying to make herself calm and relaxed. She undauntedly met those penetrating blue eyes and that made some havoc in her feelings again just like before. That warm gust of feeling she felt the very first time she met him way back in her teenage days was the same but t
When Thyago visited the firm to meet with the co-designers of the project, she didn't help herself to scanned and secretly complement his features as he walks formidably in the hallway. He was wearing the usual business suit but he looked attractive and fresh. She suddenly felt ashamed to herself when their eyes met and he caught her staring at him. Fascinating herself, she composed herself immediately as she motioned and guide him and his Assistant and Secretary in the Conference room. They will do the contract signing today and Thyago will about to meet the chosen designers of the project and talk about the plans and designs after.Who would have thought that they were bound to work together after what happened between them? Life must have been unpredictable, she thought. It's a good thing they decided to set aside the past and work together professionally and do nothing but pure business."Mr. Williams, I'd like you to meet my cho
Feeling exhausted, Thyago laid himself on the bed when he got home. He was occupying the penthouse of one of their family-owned hotels in Dallas, Texas. His parents are currently on a European tour having a vacation. Since his father served his last term as a Governor and decided to quit politics and his mother passed him the sole authority in administering all of the Gonzales businesses that she inherited after his grandfather passed away. He doesn't usually go home in the old mansion, he'll be all alone anyway so he decided to occupy the penthouse in one of their hotels in Texas besides the fact that it was convenient, it was also time-saving for it's just nearby his main office.He took out a frustrated sigh as he remembered Bea. She had changed a lot and he was surprised. The cute, shy, sweet, thoughtful, and innocent yet smart girl had turned into a confident and witty attractive woman. He remembered wondering how would she be like if she grew up? Now it has
"Oh, Bless! Glad you came!" Hannah almost shrieked when she saw her coming toward her.It's Hannah's birthday party and she promised her to attend the event beyond her buy schedule. It was held in a beach resort who owned by her boyfriend's family. The resort was high-class and extravagant. It offers a wide range of services and amenities, has great recreational facilities, courts, and areas for various sports, and other activities. To think it was owned by Hannah's boyfriend, she must be rich, she concludes."Happy birthday!" She greeted her best friend then hugged her."I thought you won't come on my birthday. I'll be sulking on you if you missed it.""I won't miss it. You know I love so much..." She replied true to her words."Awww you're so sweet. Come, I'll introduce you to David and his friends." Hannah then pull her hand and dragged her towards the group of males not awa
While fixing her stuff to prepare for leaving the site, she saw Thyago from afar coming towards her place. She reviewed the floor plan before she decided to leave while her co-designers just left the place a while ago. Thyago usually visits the site and often brought food for the team. After the reconcilement they had, they somehow managed to be comfortable with each other."Hi! Preparing to go home?" He asked with that warm smile that made her heart skips a beat."Yeah. Wait, what are you doing here? Don't tell me you're visiting the site this late?" She stated smiling back at him. She couldn't help because, after their reconciliation, she found out that he was still the same Thyago, funny and nice to speak with. He was still comical and fun to be with."I was wondering if you wanna go out with me? You know, dinner and stroll around." He said it in a chill and friendly voice. Funny because he had been inviting her whether lunch or dinner these
