“Hey Jason, I did something yesterday that may or may not bring my whole family to your cafe.” Jason looked at Regina with a puzzled expression. “My mom was being unreasonable, setting me up on blind dates, so I said I was going on a date today and that she shouldn’t bother.” He looked at her with a smug expression on his face. “I didn’t give your info, but knowing my family, they’d find you sooner or later.” “Don’t worry about it. I can handle a few more extra customers.” “Charge them double when you see them. Tell them it’s a gift from me.” They both laughed, and the tension was gone. “I’m glad you’re okay that this turned out to be a date when I specifically invited you to a tasting event.” Jason felt awkward that he skirted the issue when he gave the invitation. He got so shy that he did not know how to ask her out. “Well, I thought it was just what you said, but the flowers and your attire gave it away,” she teased. It had been an awkward beginning when Regina arrived at

“Where have you been?” Regina turned around swiftly, ready to face Owen with a snarky comment. “Ms. Regina, I’m sorry if I startled you.” “Oh my gosh, it’s just you.” “I tried to call your attention earlier, but you weren’t responding.” “Hey, Art. What are you doing here? Do you live in the area?” “I’m... I uh… well uhm… Ms. Regina, do you mind if I talk to you somewhere private?” “Uhm, sure, let me set these things down, and I’ll be right back.” Arthur saw the flowers in one of her bags while a frown followed Regina as she entered the building. Regina bought a few boxes of tea and some desserts to take home from the event. She wanted to share some of it with a few people from the Bennet household and her doorman, Jeffrey, and his assistant. “Jeffrey, this bag is for you guys. I got you some tea and desserts from the hotel.” “Oh, Ms. Regina, you shouldn’t have. You spoil us too much.” “Well, you guys do a good job guarding this building and ensuring our safety at all times

J, I’m so happy you wrote to me again. It’s been a while since I’ve heard from you, and for a bit, I was worried, but of course, I know I shouldn’t have been. Between the two of us, you were always the one who could adapt to situations faster. While I try to study and analyze situations, you always dive head first and figure things out later. I always envied you for this, but you know what, just having you as my friend made me braver. I still remember the first time we met, and even though it was the most awful day of my life, it was also the best. Remember how you found me? I was getting beat up at the back of the gym by those kids in my class, and you stepped in. I know it was none of your business, and you could have just ignored them and gone on your way, but you didn’t, and for that, I am thankful. Our other friends always made fun of me and my dorky side, but you always shut them down. You were my hero, and though you said not to call you that, I will always say that you ar

“Marius, can you keep a secret?” Regina had been contemplating the whole day if she should tell Marius what happened last weekend, and several times she shot down the idea, but in the end, thinking about it too much had made her anxious. Working at the hospital left her with no friends. Her best friend and brother, Raffy, would never understand her predicament, so she had to confide in another person. Marius signaled by zipping his mouth and throwing away the key. “Wait, before you tell me anything, I wanted to say that you look very happy today. There’s a glow about you that looks like you got laid. Okay, zipping my mouth again.” “First off, I did not get laid,” she rolled her eyes, “But I went on a date, and ended up with two men confessing their feelings for me.” “Oh my gosh girlfriend, look at you. Men lined up all the way out the door.” “Oh, don’t exaggerate. It’s two guys and I barely know them.” “Still, don’t you feel elated that two men are infatuated with you?” “Oh shu

“Ms. Martin, I think you’re intentionally trying to give me a heart attack. It’s been several weeks, and you seem to get more creative with your attire each time.” “Honestly, I do not see what is wrong with my bathing suit this time.” “The first time I bathed your mother, I was in my underwear, and you specifically told me it should never happen again, but your mother does not want to bathe with the male caregiver. She won’t even let him give her a sponge bath. So what are you going to do with her hygiene?” “I agreed you should be the one to bathe her, which is why we came to a compromise, and you said you’d bring a swimsuit, bathing attire, whatever you want to call it.” “So what is wrong with what I wore?” “The first one was inappropriate. You looked like you were applying as a swimsuit model for a men’s magazine. You had three triangles to cover your private parts and nothing else.” Regina smiled. She did that on purpose. To see if he would say something about it. After their

A few days later, Owen came down for breakfast, and something seemed amiss. The dining table, usually full of food, was empty, and when he called out, none of the household staff came to ask what he needed. He heard laughing and screaming, so he followed the sounds. Several people were outside in the garden, running around excitedly.“What is happening here?” Something darted under his feet, and the maids stood in line and averted their eyes.The culprit barked at Owen and nipped at his slacks playfully. “Come here, you crazy mongrel!” Regina grabbed the ball of fur and hugged it tight. She giggled when the three-month-old golden retriever licked her face.“How am I not surprised you are in the middle of this?”“I asked a friend to bring their puppy for your mom’s mental and emotional health.”“How does a dog feature into that?”“I had a bright idea last night.”“Oh yay, one of those.” Owen expressed sarcastically.“I was thinking some old folk’s homes have animals they use for emoti

The next day, Regina wondered if she should cancel her date with Arthur. The kiss with Owen had been weighing heavily on her mind, and wondered if it affected Owen the same way. She was distracted and worried her date with Arthur would not be enjoyable. But at the last minute, she decided that backing out would make her look bad. Arthur worked for Owen, and she didn’t want it to be awkward between them when they saw each other again. Arthur took Regina to Cherry Blossom Park, knowing she was fond of flowers. Once a year, the flowers bloomed and during that time they covered the entire park in pink petals, falling like snow on a winter’s day. Regina wore a dusty pink sundress with small, white flowers, making her look like she was part of the display, like a fairy or a wood nymph dancing among the trees. “This place is so pretty. I love sitting among the benches out here and just watching the petals falling. Come Art, I know the perfect place.” She pulled his arm and led him to he

That weekend, Regina went home to visit her parents. She was getting overwhelmed with the men in her life that she needed a break.‘Who knew I would come here knowing my mom nags me about getting married constantly? I guess it’s better than thinking about three different guys and comparing them all day.’“Mom! Dad! I’m home!” Regina called out in the living room, but nobody answered. She went to the kitchen, and all the maids were nowhere to be found. So she sent a message to her mom and asked where they were. “We’re at the clubhouse for brunch. I sent all the maids home for the weekend.”“That’s odd. Why would you do that?”“Nobody’s at home these days, dear. They have nothing to do. So at least they get to rest and spend time with their families.”“I’m here, and I’m staying for the weekend. Make me food, Mommy.”“You know the number for the takeout places. Order something.”Regina sent her mother an icon with its tongue out to show her displeasure. “I’m making pancakes and messing
