Arthur reached the parking lot and halted the car, then glanced at Ana through the rearview mirror.

Ana opened the car's door and stepped out of the car, then ran into the house.

For the first time in her life, she didn't greet Mr Reginald, the butler, before walking past him.

She ran up the stairs to her room, slammed the door behind her and then let out a shaky breath,

Don't cry, Ana. He's not worth your tears. Ana told herself as she fought her tears. This is all for the best. He would never love me back, someone else has his heart, so this is all for the best. Yes. This is all for the best. Good riddance, anyway. I'll surely miss him, but I'll get over him with time.

She locked her door and threw herself on the bed, then turned around and stared up at the ceiling.

Phew! If only Lincoln were here. She thought to herself. Then I'd be less miserable. It's only been two days of his absence, and it feels like hell already. When he gets married, then what will happen? Yes, Lincoln!

    “Um… a walk? Umm… sure. Why not?”“That's great then,” Lincoln said, then turned to the four parents, “Mom, Dad, Evie and I are gonna go for a walk.”“Oh, alright then,” Kim said.“Have fun, guys,” Tessa added.Lincoln and Evie rose to their feet.Lincoln expected Ethan's jealous eyes to be on him, but was disappointed.“Come on, let's go.” Evie interlinked their arm together and they walked out of the poolside.“So, what's up?” Lincoln asked, “You seem to have a lot on your mind today. What's going on?”“Oh?” Evie exclaimed, then chuckled, “Nothing. Nothing is going on.”“Then how come you never called me or texted me for the past five days?” He enquired.“Oh, nothing really.” Evie lied, tucking some strands of hair behind her ears, “It's just… I've had a lot on my plate lately.”“Like what?” Lincoln pressed further, “You don't work or anything, do you?”“Um… what about you?” Evie asked, “You also never called or texted.”“That's fair.”“So, what was my brother like?” She queried.“H

    But it didn't.Thirty minutes had already gone, and these people were still here, eating and chatting.They had already done with their first meal and were now eating dessert.Ana glanced around the table and noticed that Lincoln was exchanging furtive glances with Ethan.She frowned.What's with them? She wondered to herself, turning to Ethan, who was sitting right by her side. Why are they exchanging glances as if they are some kind of lovers or something?Lincoln met her gaze and flinched.Wait a minute, what's going on here? She wondered once more, turning to Ethan, who had turned to her the moment Lincoln flinched.“Hi, there, Ana,” Ethan said cheerfully.“Don't talk to me like that,” Ana snapped at him.“Like what?” Ethan queried.“Like I'm a kid.” She responded, “I’m not a kid.”“Oh, but you are,” Ethan stated nonchalantly, digging his fork into his steak, and this seemed to infuriate her.“I'm not.” Ana gritted silently, “I'm twenty.”“Exactly.”Lincoln, who watched this, quic

  • The Way He Looks At Me    Family Dinner II

    Rahim pulled the car to a halt on the parking lot of the Burns Estate and exhaled silently, his grip tightening on the steering wheel. Lincoln stared at him out of the corner of his eyes and smiled to himself, seeing the beads of perspiration on Rahim's forehead. His instincts told him that Rahim was lying when he said he had gotten rid of his feelings. It's not possible to stop loving someone within the space of just five days. Or is it? Lincoln made it his mission to come up with a way to make sure Rahim spends some time with Evie tonight at this family dinner. Ana was sitting silently at the back with her earphones plugged on, her face a mask of rage and annoyance. She didn't even want to come to this lame ass family dinner in the first place. But being Ana Smith, Harry Smith's daughter, she didn't really had a choice. When had she ever? Lincoln turned to her, “Ana, we're here.” “I'm not blind! I know!” Ana snapped at him before stepping down from the car. Rahim gave L

    “You heard me,” Lincoln answered, coming back into the room and shutting the door. “Are you dating your bodyguard?” He repeated the question. “What? No, I'm not.” Ana replied. Lincoln folded his arms across his chest and regarded Ana suspiciously. “You are!” “I'm not!” “You told me you confessed your feelings for him.” “Yeah, I did.” Ana confirmed, “But he rejected me… multiple times.” Lincoln was still not buying what she was saying, “Why?” “He said he has a girlfriend,” Ana responded. “There, I answered. Can you please leave?” “No, I'm not done questioning you.” Lincoln stood his ground. “If you're both not dating, then why do you look so happy?” Ana gave him a puzzled stare. “What do you mean I look so happy? I'm not allowed to be happy or something?” “You know what I mean…” “No, I don't!” Ana spat, now getting extremely frustrated, “My bodyguard and I are not dating! He's an asshole! Can you leave me alone? Seriously, you should be given some sort of an award for the

    “We're here,” Rahim announced as he halted the car inside the garage. “Great,” Lincoln muttered under his breath as he stared at the house. Actually, he didn't miss this place… not one bit! Now he has to resume living the way his father wants. “Aren't you getting off?” Rahim asked inquisitively as he stepped down from the car. “Yeah, sure,” Lincoln said and stepped down from the car. Rahim opened the back door and brought out Lincoln's luggage. Together, the two best friends walked into the house. “Hello, Mr Reginald.” Lincoln greeted the butler. “Nice to have you back here, son.” The man responded with a bright smile. Lincoln's mom, Tessa, was coming down the stairs and upon seeing Lincoln, her lips curled up into a happy smile. “Oh, my dear!” She exclaimed, running down the rest of the stairs. “Easy, Mom.” Lincoln warned, “Watch the stairs!” “Oh, come here!” Tessa reached down the stairs and pulled her son into a tight hug. “Mom, you're choking the living daylight out

    Lincoln zipped his luggage and dropped it on the floor.Five days have already passed since he gave up on trying to get Ethan to open up to him.And those five days, he and Ethan haven't had a proper conversation, nor did Ethan try to apologize again for his actions… nor have they had sex… which was a surprise for Lincoln.They just co-existed in the same penthouse.When it was time for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Ethan made food for both of them or ordered when he wasn't in the mood to cook, and Lincoln always ate in the room Ethan assigned him.It has been like this for the past five days, and it was now time to go as his one-week staycation was over.Dragging his luggage alongside him, he walked out of the room and found Kim in the living room… it was a surprise that Evie wasn't there.“You're packed already?” Kim asked as she got to her feet.Lincoln nodded, “Yes.”Kim walked towards her and gave her a tight hug, “Thank you, dear, for staying with Ethan through his injury,” She s
