The Perfect Retribution Chapter One Hundred and One
Justin’s POV It was around 2 am when I was jolted awake by the sound of my ringing phone. With half-closed eyes, I tried to find it from the direction the sound was coming from with my free hand. My other hand which served as Ayva’s pillow felt numb and I couldn’t even complain about it because I’d do it every day. I was finally where I’d always wanted to be, and even though I could touch and see her sleeping peacefully right next to me, it still felt so surreal. I still found it hard to believe that what happened had really happened. It felt like a dream and I hoped that if it was, I never woke up from it. I found my phone and it was Jace calling. I’d at first wanted to ignore his call but when I realized that he probably hadn’t gone to sleep yet because of me, I decided to swipe answer to tell him that I wouldn’t be able to make it back home that day. Gently, I pulled my arm from under Ayva’s head, carefully placing a pillow under her head. “Fuck!” I cursed under my breath
The Perfect Retribution Chapter One Hundred and Two
Justin’s POVSomething was tickling my face. At first, I didn’t pay any attention to it because I wasn’t ready to wake up yet but when it persisted, it started to bother me. And then a thought occurred to me, an ant was walking on my face. My eyes snapped open that instant, my hand reaching up to catch the ant before it could escape but there was no ant, just the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen sleeping peacefully beside me. I’d never been a morning person but that morning I was in a good mood. I was the happiest I’d ever been in the morning and I knew that was as a result of Ayva, lying next to me. If only every morning could be like this…‘Soon.’ I told myself. In a way it was me consoling myself of having everything I’d ever desired. ‘Very soon.’As my fingers reached up to touch her face, a smile appeared on my lips as I realized that the ant had indeed been Ayva and that she wasn’t asleep but rather pretending to be. I lowered my head to kiss her forehead, then I moved to
The Perfect Retribution Chapter One Hundred and Three
Ayva’s POVI was in the shower when I heard the bathroom door open. Quickly I put my face under the shower to rinse off the soap lather before opening my eyes. I drew back the shower curtains a bit to peep and just as I’d known, it was Justin that had walked in the bathroom. I was going to say something about how I wasn’t going to take a shower with him but then I saw that not only did he not seem like he wanted to take one (he had his briefs back on), but he also looked as if he wanted to be anywhere but then. “Is something wrong?” I asked, with my head poked out while my body remained shielded behind the curtain. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a bit insecure about my body. “Yeah, I— need to leave. My clothes, I can’t find them anywhere.” His eyes scanned the bathroom, searching for his clothes and I felt a dull pang in my chest. “Did something happen?” I asked again, I was worried. So worried that I didn’t realize that I’d just stepped out of the shower without covering my body.
The Perfect Retribution Chapter One Hundred and Four
Ayva’s POVBy the time I reached Justin’s car, I was a panting mess. In my defense, I’d taken the stairs because the elevator had decided not to respond when I needed it the most, and well I’ve never been the most athletic person in the room.Surprisingly the roof of his convertible was down. I knocked on the window in the driver seat and he winded down a second later. He looked a little surprised to see me which made me know that he hadn’t heard me screaming at him to wait for me. That means that if I hadn’t pushed myself to run faster, I wouldn’t have caught up with him. “What are you—” Justin started to ask when I said,“Get… get out of the car, I’ll- I’ll drive.” I tried to catch my breath, holding on to the car to keep myself upright. He raised a brow. I pulled the door handle, luckily the door wasn’t locked. “I can’t let you drive when you’re like this,” I told him. His lips were set in a straight line and his gaze, questioning. “And what exactly do you mean by ‘when I’m li
The Perfect Retribution Chapter One Hundred and Five
Justin’s POV I returned to my car to see Emily trying to poke her head through the window. “I thought you said Ayva was waiting outside. Or was that just an excuse to leave quickly?” She eyed me suspiciously, pointing her index at me. “She left,” I murmured, tuning my fingers through my hair in frustration. Her eyes narrowed at me infinitesimally. She had this accusatory look in her eyes and I was forced to ask, “What?” “Why do I have a feeling that you’re the reason she left like that?” She asked, her eyes still holding that accusatory stare. I was going to tell her that I couldn’t be the reason why because I didn’t remember doing anything to offend her but I didn’t get the chance before Emily spoke again. “Why didn’t she come in with you? Why did she choose to wait here?” “She didn’t. I asked her to.” I frowned and I had a very good reason for that. One was the fact that I knew she hated hospitals and the other was my mom. Given the fact that the last time they crossed pat
The Perfect Retribution Chapter One Hundred and Six
Ayva’s POVI spent half of the day arranging my closet and the other boxes that contained my belongings. By the time I was done the night had set and my whole body ached. I lay on my bed with all limbs sprawled out, staring up at the ceiling. A deep shaky breath escaped my lips as I thought of the event of the previous day. Had I been too harsh on him?Was that the reason why he never tried to call or text me after I left yesterday? As if the universe heard my worries, my phone started to vibrate next to me and my heart skipped a beat. In a flash it was in my hands and upon looking at the screen to confirm the caller ID, my expression fell. It was Olivia. I felt terrible that I wasn’t too thrilled by my best friend’s call. I hadn’t spoken to her in two days so I should be happy she’d called. I should be happy to speak to her but I wasn’t and that made me feel guilty. I tried to put a smile on my face before swiping answer. “Hey Liv,” I tried to sound cheerful, I didn’t want her
The Perfect Retribution Chapter One Hundred and Seven
Justin’s POV“What if she doesn’t want to see me? What if she’s still mad at me? What if she doesn’t wear the dress? What if she doesn’t like it?” I was a nervous wreck. I’d been standing outside Ayva’s apartment for over thirty minutes. I’d watch the time go from 6:30 to 7 pm and now, it was past 7 pm and I still couldn’t bring myself to walk up to her door. “Stop worrying so much,” Emily said to me on the phone. “Just go meet her, you’re late already. You don’t want her thinking you don’t keep to time.” If it were up to me, I never would have waited a day before seeing Ayva again. I’d wanted to call her the day before but Emily had been against it. She’d said “Give her time. Trust me when I say you’re the last person she wants to hear from right now.” Emily had instead made me divert all my energy into preparing for a date that I thought was too extravagant by the way. I mean what ever happened to sending her a bouquet and telling her I was sorry? Did I have to spend hours plann
The Perfect Retribution Chapter One Hundred and Eight
Ayva's POVI lied, I wasn't hard to impress. I'd forgiven Justin since the moment I got the box and when he appeared in front of my door looking more attractive than the last time I saw him, every remnant of my anger melted away. The truth was I wanted to tell him that I wasn't mad anymore but I thought that'd be going too easy on him. I mean where would that leave our dinner and his will to impress me? And what if he did the same thing some other time because he knew I’d just forgive him again. Besides, I was having so much fun watching him stumble over his words and fiddle with the edge of his jacket. It wasn't often I got to see him nervous and jittery and so I wanted to make the most of that moment. I guess It was safe to say that Justin tried 'too hard' to impress me. Like he broke my impressing scale because tell me why he wasn't driving us to some fancy overpriced restaurant in LA like I’d expected but rather he was taking the road to the airport. "Where are we going?" I'd
