Gemma opened her eyes to the bright room, she yawned rolling over, the bed was empty, and she swallowed looking around the room for Isaac. She got up and checked the time, it was almost noon, she gasped and remembered she had to be in the office by noon. Gemma stepped out of the room, rubbing her eyes, walking straight to the kitchen. "Miss Smith?" Tracy called, Gemma took her hand down and turned in her direction. "Oh, Tracy…" she glanced around, Isaac was nowhere to be found. "Mr Dale wanted to let you know he left for work early," she says, seeing the expression on Gemma's face. "Oh, thank you…" she smiled, Gemma looked towards the door and remembered her cell phone. "Tracy…" She called, heading towards the door, "Did you see my phone?" She turned to her. Tracy looked confused for a moment, she couldn't place what she was talking about, suddenly she remembered Isaac holding it this morning. "I think Mr Dale must have dropped it in the room" Gemma's thirst quenched. She

"Mr Dale…" his secretary paused, staring at Gemma in his hands. It didn't take long for a lady to walk in, finding them in the same position. "Farah?" He slowly let go of Gemma. "Farah?" Gemma repeated, she remembered that name clearly. The stunning lady had intimidated her with her gorgeous look, she could barely see what she wore underneath the expensive coat she wore, but her smooth makeup and silky hair made her feel less. Just then, the name became clear to Gemma. FLASHBACK. "Hmm, Fara?" He asked, Gemma, looked at him, confused, and she looked at the shower gel. "Oh? You know them?" She stared at him, Issac hummed like he was searching for words. "Oh... Yes, I know the owner, he replied, Gemma, nodded. "Really?" Gemma asked, she looked at the name. "How?" She asked, from what she knew, Fara's beauty was owned by a woman. "Ex?" Gemma's smiling face fell, she stared at him for a while speechlessly as her mind tried to process what he had just said. "What?" H

Gemma and Isaac arrived at a cafe not so far from Shena's building while driving Gemma had been regretting her decision for grabbing his hands, but Isaac didn't seem to care. He chuckled every time she sighed. At least now people knew about them, the only difference would be her fight with Ashely was a waste, she was sleeping with the CEO. Their order arrived and Gemma began to eat, she glanced at Isaac who stared at her like she was a lottery ticket he just won. "Ain't you going to eat?" She asked, Isaac, leaned closer, staring at the burger on his front. "I could eat later," He says, Gemma sighed again. "You didn't have to do that if it bothered you so much" She breathed calmly. She's rude... Like my god, what was that?" She rolled her eyes "Honestly, she's so rude" Gemma complained, again and again, she kept repeating it finally she picked up her smoothie sucking angrily. "You should call down with that smoothie" Isaac takes her hand down, She looked at him, he didn't see

Gemma parked in front of Abram's place, she looked at the building and looked behind her, she took her bag and phone and headed out. "Gemma?" She heard Richard's voice, she looked up and found him waving from the balcony. "Richard!" She smiled, it was still awkward having to see him and knowing that he was her little brother. "What are you doing at home little man?" "I'm not little" he corrected, Gemma sighed, and she shook her head. She totally chose the wrong word to use. "He's a teenager you don't call him that," She smiled seeing Marbella standing by the door. "Yeah, I know that… you called me that for a while" She raised her brows at her, Marbella laughed, walking into the living room. "Gemma!" She heard him rush down "He likes you, he's been asking to see you for the past week" Marbella smiled, Gemma looked at him with a faint smile. "Yes?" She waited for him, and without hesitation Richard rushed over to her and hugged her, Gemma's eyes opened wide. What just hap

Isaac and Gemma arrived in New York hours ago and finally made their way to his parents' place. She had practised so many words and greetings just in case, she didn't want to mess up. Gemma stepped out of the room in a white knee-length dress, and red heels, in her hand she held a red purse. Beside her, Isaac had a white turtleneck and brown trousers. "Gems!" He called, grabbing both their coat, she turned around staring at him as she battled with her necklace "What's wrong?" She asked, looking back at the necklace she battled with, it wouldn't open. "Let me," he says, Gemma was about to pass it to him but stopped as he took out a small box from his coat. "Hm? What's that?" She strained her eyes, hoping to know what that was. Isaac winked at her. "You will know" he replied, Gemma stood by the door. Isaac opened the small box and there she was the beautiful necklace he took out. "Wow, Isaac" her heart softened, she hadn't seen this design and had modelled all of Shena's l

"Where's your dad… I wanna meet him" She swallowed, even though she wasn't excited. "He should be around…" he glanced around the house, searching for him. "Ah, there he is," he says, Gemma looked in his direction seeing him come down the stairs along with Frank. "Isaac!" Frank called, Isaac got up immediately and headed in his direction. "Hey!" Isaac replied, Gemma, looked around. She then got up and followed gently beside him. She watched him greet and exchange conversations with his dad before he finally decided to introduce her. He took her by her waist and pulled her closer. Gemma's eyes met Frank's instead. "Dad, this is Gemma," Isaac introduced, "Gemma this is my dad" he whispered to her. She laid a bright smile. "Hi, Good day" She bowed slightly, paying her respect. Mr Dale stretched his hands to her for a shake. Gemma took his hands. "Gemma? Am I right?" Gemma looked at him confused, she couldn't understand what he was asking, he had just said her name and stil

"And now, I am asking you to be my wife. I know it's not been so long, but ever since that day… There was no day I didn't think about you and think about this, I have held this back, it's been a year and four months and today I… Gemma?" "Huh?" She looked at him, and Isaac blinked surprisingly. "You're listening?" He asked. "Yeah, huh?" She gasped, Gemma grabbed her dress preventing it from dropping to the ground. "What am I trying to say, is… marry me?" He breathed, waiting for her reply, Gemma didn't take her eyes off the ring, her heartbeat increased. A year ago she asked him to marry her and that she meant. "Isaac… I'' she inhaled softly. "Hey, you can take your time…" he reached for the ring and covered the box, Gemma grabbed his hands. "No!" She yelled, looked away, and furrowed her brows, "Huh! I mean yes!" She corrected, she bit her lips, and Isaac looked at her. "I mean I am not taking my time, and yes… I would marry you" she whispered. "Really?" He brightened.

From what he had told her, he had a business to settle in India. Isaac asked her to come along since she would have a chance to see his brother, but she declined.Gemma sat beside Sarah, Lucy, and Mark and finally, Mason decided to join them. Different foods sat on the table where they gathered, Gemma smiled as Sarah and Lucy took a look at her ring. "Oh my goodness! It's so pretty!" Sarah screamed. "Yo, Keep it down!" Gemma nudged her. "That's a diamond!" Sarah exclaimed silently. "I know right" Lucy replied, Mark and Mason stared at them speechlessly, it's been almost an hour and none of them had said anything else but praised the ring on her fingers. "Wow, I can't believe you Gems, you scored a jackpot," Sarah said. "Stop" she blushed, the waiter dropped a bottle of beer on the table. "Thank you," Mark

"It's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do, hey baby," Sarah yelled from the back seat.Beside her, Lucy, Gemma, and Mason sat, while Mark sat in the front with Pamela. Sarah pulled out her phone and began to sing. While she moved her body to the beat inconveniencing the rest. "I think I wanna marry you" Lucy sang out in a low tone. Gemma laughed when they nudged her. "Is it the look in your eyes or is it this dancing juice?" She paused at the sound of it. "It's the dancing juice, Baby," Mark laughed at her. "Who cares, baby, I think I wanna marry you" Gemma followed, She and Sarah laughed, and Lucy joined them, leaning on Mason beside her. "No one will know, oh, come on girlWho cares if we're trashed, got a pocket full of cash we can blow!!" Mason suddenly joined, singing along to the son that played. Mark turned around staring at them. "I love the song," He says to Mark. "Don't say no, no!" Sarah didn't mind their discussion and continued. "Just say ye

"This feels so good," Gemma complimented. She wondered why Isaac hadn't told her about it yet, so she inhaled deeply and took her purse and phone. She quickly checked the mirror adjusting her makeup. Gemma looked at her hands, the ring shining more in the sunlight. "Do you need me to follow you?" Pamela asked Gemma, looked back at her and shook her head. "It's fine… you could do something around, or find an ice cream shop," she teased, for a reason, she began to wonder where they get the ice cream. She inhaled, staring at the cafe where she asked Juan to see her, she took a peep from the glass. There he was, sitting and scrolling through his phone. The door opened and Juan raised his gaze at her, Gemma took her eyes off, she was going to him but she felt so nervous. "Gemma!" Juan called in a high tone, Gemma looked around, she had eyes staring at her. "Hey," she dropped her bag on an empty chair and sat beside it. She breathed out. "You look so beautiful," Juan says, Ge
