Meet New Neighbor
Ding...Dong...
My eyes are slowly open to the sounds of my doorbell. I didn’t expect any visitors today so who is it? I ignore it and try to go back to my dreamland but that annoying sound didn’t stop. Maybe, it’s important so having no choice, I get up on the bed half-sleep with my eyes still closed, I don’t have enough sleep yesterday so I’m a little grumpy. Today is a weekend so I’m hoping I could sleep more but unfortunately; this damn doorbell rang. I opened the door and am ready to scold the person who disturbed my sleep.
Once I fully open my eyes my mouth drops open, what a beautiful creature in the morning. I forgot that this person is the culprit why I'm wide awake now and disturbed my sleep. He has this dazzling aura that draws me in, he looks so fresh in the morning. He is tall and I almost looked up. His deep brown hair is short and neat. He spoke and my eyes trail to his red and soft lips. He made me feel weak just only of his gaze. I didn't notice my grip on my door tightening.
“Hi sorry did I wake you up? I just want to ask for some help”
I just stared at him and looked at his amazingly beautiful eyes that looks like a deep ocean, staring back at me and drowning me. It felt like I am still in my dream, I didn’t understand any single words he just said.
“Excuse me are you okay? “. Isaac said waving his hand in front of me.
Only at that moment did I realize he is talking to me. “Ahem,” I cleared my throat. “Sorry, I thought I’m still dreaming, yes do you need anything? I timidly smiled at him.
“I’m Isaac your new neighbor. I just transferred to my new place here last night and am still unfamiliar with this town and I thought you could lend me a hand. He asked.
“Oh, okay what is it then? I shyly answered realizing I’m still in my sleepwear dress and my hair was messed up.
“I just want to ask if there’s any nearby supermarket here in the area. while he is speaking, I simply straighten my messed hair.
“Oh yes, when you come down you just straight ahead and turn right on 32nd Street. You can see one Hypermarket there it's small but if you need a bigger one you can go to 38th Street it's a 15-minute drive from here.”
“Okay, Thank you for your help, Ms.?” Isaac said.
“Bettany Wright”.
“Isaac Jones.” It is my pleasure to meet you, Ms. Wright, while offering his hand to me.
“You can call me Bettany, Ms. Wright is too formal for me, and you are my neighbor now, and it is my pleasure to meet you too.” I accept his hand and shook it.
“Okay I’m sorry again to disturb you this morning Bettany and thank you for your help I will go ahead first I just need to fix something, so see you around”.
“No worry, I don’t mind and welcome to this town hope you enjoy your stay here, see you around”.
Then he left and I just remain standing at my door staring at his broad back, wanting to touch and hug him. If I wake up with these beautiful species every day, I will gladly wake up even if I don’t have enough sleep. hahaha.

My CEO Neighbor Routine
“Did I embarrass myself in front of Isaac? I never thought I will be having a hot neighbor like him”. I hope he didn’t think that he has a weird neighbor. I went back to my bed and tried to fall asleep again but unfortunately, I couldn’t my mind was active but my body was lazy. I remain lay and decided to read my favorite author books to pass the time before I will get up and made my breakfast. It’s a weekend so I feel a little disappointed because normally, I spend my weekend sleeping for half of the day but now I can’t do it and you already know why. I took my breakfast and planned for general cleaning after. I don’t have a massive plan for my weekend so normal routine again. Sleep, Eat, Clean, and Read. That is my weekend but unfortunately for my work, there is no weekend at all. I am always on call even I don’t want to. My authors can be a handful sometimes. So having no choice I attended them. After I finish everything, I thought of going to the supermarket. I need some ingredi

"Waaaaaahhhng Waaaaahhhng". "Oh shoot", I opened my eyes disoriented, and realized it was just my alarm. I turned it off and was planning to go back to sleep but I remember I have a meeting today and it's still the weekend. "Holy moly where's the justice when you still need some sleep but you can't get it even on the weekend". I started to prepare myself and after having breakfast I headed to the office. "Good Morning Ms. Wright". Greeted by our security guard. "Good Morning Mr. Ben, how's your weekend? Is everyone inside? "Good Ms. Wright only Ms. Cruz just arrived a few minutes ago". "Okay, I have to go then, see you around Mr. Ben." waving goodbye. When I enter the conference room, I saw Ms. Cruz organizing everything for the emergency meeting. "Ms. Cruz good morning."

“Good morning sunshine”. I greeted myself, it’s Monday and it’s going to be a long day. I start my morning routine and headed to the office to prepare for my meeting. At the elevator “Wait”. I heard someone shout when the elevator going to close so I hold the open button to wait for the person. “Sorry, thank you for holding it up”. The person said that I’m not familiar with it. He step inside and another person showed up, it surprised me a little it was my hot neighbor, Isaac. “Good morning Bettany”. Isaac greeted me with a smile “Good morning”, I shyly greeted back. I didn’t expect I will bump into him again this morning. “Are you heading to work? He asked plastering his full smile. “Yes, I’m on my way”, he has these perfect white pearl teeth that showed when he smiled, what an amazing morning I thought. “Are you heading somewhere? I asked him. “I’m heading to work as well and this is my assistant Jeff he just arrived yesterday night”, Jeff this is Ms. Bettany Wright my neigh

“By the way Bett, I heard that you have a new owner and CEO of this company. Caleb asked “Yes actually Mr. Smith surprised us this weekend, he just told us and now we are still in an adjustment period although there are no changes in management except from our CEO”. I answered while waiting for the elevator to stop on our floor. “Oh, so how is your new boss look? Is he good-looking like me? he teases “Come on Caleb he’s looked far than yours, hahaha. I tease him back “I see so you’re eyeing your boss, is he that good-looking? “Stop your nonsense, Caleb, if someone hears you, they might believe it. I don't have the guts to have an eye on him. hahaha". “Okay, but why you’re blushing? Don't tell me he is your style?”. Ha, ha, ha, “No, it’s just hot here are you not hot, stop teasing me, Caleb”. The elevator dings and opened and I stopped. Caleb had already gone inside but I felt my feet get numb and freeze, I was stuck where I am when I saw who was inside the elevator. My face blu
My CEO Neighbor Car Ride
Isaac POV When the elevator opened her smile and laughter come into my sight. Why I felt bad that she smiled at someone, not at me. I need to get a hold of myself. She stared at me but why do I think she’s awkward? She greeted me and I greeted her back. I got a little annoyed when her companion started talking. Who is this guy by the way? Why do they seem so close? Never mind it’s not my goddamn business anyway. The elevator opened and they come out first. “Mr. Jones, the car is waiting”, Jeff reminded me. I just stare at him, the driver opened the car and I get in. We arrived after a short drive at the Italian Restaurant that Jeff found. Bettany is still on my mind when we entered the restaurant then Jeff asked me. “Mr. Jones, look Ms. Wright is also dining in here." I followed Jeff’s eyes and saw Bettany situated on the corner with the guy at the elevator. So they’re having a date then. I suddenly lost my appetite for what I saw. Jeff and I settled on the table far away from the
My CEO Neighbor Falling Star
I reached home late in the evening and I was exhausted. I went straight to my bed and wanted to change my night clothes and retired for the day but when I lay down on my bed I didn't notice I fell asleep immediately. Ring, Ring, Ring... I jolted from my sleep and picked up the phone. "Hello", I answered with a sleepy voice. "B are you sleeping already? my best friend questioned. "Yes, but thanks to you I am all awake now, why did you call this late? I answered with a grumpy voice. "Sorry B, I thought you would be still awake I just want to catch up with you today but it looks like you are damn tired". her voice got sad. "It's okay T, I'm awake now and it will be hard for me to go back to sleep at any moment, tell me how's your day gone? I went out of my bed and went to the bathroom to change my sleepwear dress. While I'm changing I switch it to the speaker phone and listen to my best friend. She told me all the details that happened to her for the whole day. After I changed I w
My CEO Neighbor Ordinary Day
“Good morning Carol, I greeted my assistant. Do I have a scheduled meeting for today except for Mr. Emerson? “Good morning Bett, you don’t have any meeting after Mr. Emerson. Is there anything you want to add? “No, it’s okay, when Mr. Emerson comes, let him in at my office”. “Okay, do you need anything? “Nothing, I’ll be heading to my office now. --- Knock, knock … “Come in, I answered at the door. “Good morning Bett, I brought your usual coffee”. Cole greeted with coffee in his hands. “Good morning Cole, come in and have a seat, oh thank you I forgot to ask Carol for this one you’re my savior.” I dramatically said. Cole and I both settled in my small meeting area. We started to catch up first before we discuss our agenda for today. “Cole I’m sorry yesterday, it really slip on my mind about our meeting. You know Caleb is so persistent, he doesn’t accept any rejection from me. Our meeting took longer than I expected and I don’t have any choice but to accompany him at lunch.
My CEO Neighbor Rain
It was around 5 o'clock and my team started to leave the office. As usual, I am still at my desk doing my work. Sometimes I kinda regret that I accepted the position I have now. I needed time for myself to live, but I love my job as well. Helping authors inspire many people with their stories is worthy of my time. I love reading, it is one of my favorite things to do. Knock...knock... "Come in". I answered at the door. "Bett, I'm going now, do you need anything before I left? Carol asked. "I'm good Carol, you can go ahead and be safe on your way home". "Okay, you too, don't stay up late again". Carol reminded. "Okay, see you tomorrow. When Carol left I get back to my work. Time passed by and around 8 o'clock rain started to pour. I space out and stared at the rain outside my window. It's relaxing to watch the rain with a hot coffee in my hands. And that's what I'm doing now relaxing a bit after such a busy day. "Oh shoot, I forgot my car is still in maintenance. What a wrong ti
