The freedom

Ella's POV

I am glad that things are going well between Felix and I. Being with him is always what I craved every day. He meant the world to me. I am happy that his job was doing well like he had always wanted.

Since he had already adjusted in his work it was time for me to go back home, until we are married that's when I will call his house mine as well. But for now, I was just his visitor. He has promised that soon we will get married, I hope that is true.

In the morning I pack my suitcase ready to leave. I want us to leave together since he was going to work. I have a car, but I prefer taking a cab each time I was going somewhere I wasn't a fun of driving.

“Babe, are you done. I will get late to work.” Felix said. He was already ready for work, and I was delaying him.

“Almost ready, babe.” I said as I came out of the bedroom. “I am here, let's go already.” I say to him.

“Babe, wait a minute.” Felix stops me and I stand while looking at him.

“When will you come back again? I will miss you greatly. I just want you here always, honey.” He says to me.

With those eyes of his, I don't think I want to go anywhere away from him. I just love him so much, he is the one I wish to be with always.

“Babe, you know I hope to be here always with you. You mean so much to me. I will come back before the week ends if you want me to come.” I say.

“It's ok, just don't worry. I will manage, if I miss you so much I will call you, so you can come back to me.” He says while coming close to me. He held me so tightly that I could not breath. I felt so safe in his hands. He was surely the one for me and no one could ever separate us.

Felix POV

I am so happy that Ella is leaving already. At least now I will do my things freely without her interfering. She was my first obstacle of me approaching Sarah, but now I will make sure I talk to her because she was giving me sleepless nights. I realize that I have come to love her so deep that I just want to be with her and no one else.

I manage to convince Ella that I will miss her so badly, but the truth is that I won't miss her at all. I don't know why I had promised her marriage because now I have to fulfil it. Likewise, I know deep down that I will never be happy with her, but what will I do?

I find a cab for Ella, and she is ready to leave. “Babe, reach safely, honey and call me when you are already there.” I say to her while leaning on the cab's door. I was looking at pretty face and imagining how did I fall out of love with her so quickly? Does it mean that the bond we shared was not so strong after all?

“I will call you babe. Just go, it's getting late already.” She reminds me about work. She knew how to manage time well. With her by my side, I never got late anywhere I went. I stood there watching the cab until it had vanished from my eyes before starting going to work.

“Hello Felix.” I hear a melodious voice greeting me when I enter the office gate. I look around, and I see Sarah looking at me with a bright smile on her face.

“Hello. How are you.” I find myself saying since I could not of anything nice to tell her. She made me forget everything just by looking at her beautiful face.

“I'm fine. You look handsome today.” I hear her say. This surprised me. I could not believe that it was coming from her mouth. Did she consider me handsome? This is like music to my ears. I never expected it from her.

“Ooh, really?” I ask her while smiling broadly.

“I never lie.” She says.

We talk a little before I head to my working station. I was lucky she was the first person I noticed when I had arrived to work, and hopefully, she will be my last because I was about to ask her out for dinner at my house. I hope she will like the idea. Not only that, but I was dying to spend some quality time with her.
