Semua Bab A PACT TO LOVE: Bab 141 - Bab 150

I groggily rubbed my eyes and sat up straight, I looked towards the bed and my eyes met an empty bed. I yawned as I fumbled my fingers on the floor, searching for my phone blindly. Despite waking up less than a minute ago, I still felt very tired. Eventually, I felt the device with my hand and I picked it up, switching it on.As I wait for it to power on, I let my head rest on the edge of the bed. The first thing I noticed on the screen was the time. God! It was nearly noon. Despite knowing the time, I remained in my position with my eyelids half closed for a few minutes before jumping up to get ready.First, I take out everything I’ll be needing from my night bag before folding the comforter and placing it next to the bag. Afterward, I walked into the bathroom to begin my morning routine.After showering, I applied lotion to my skin and put on a light blue sundress. I proceeded to comb my hair and pack it in a ponytail before leaving the room. I followed the sweet sound of singing wh

I sat on the bed, mindlessly scrolling through my phone. I had woken up hours ago but made no move to leave the bed and start the day. We got back quite late at night yesterday. Ethan didn’t follow us all the way to the house, he had someone pick him up at some point. I didn’t waste a second, immediately I got up to my room jumped on my bed, and drifted off to sleep. My phone pinged in my hand, displaying a message on the screen from an unknown sender. The message read; Hello Bailey.It's really creepy if you ask me. Three horizontal dots appeared indicating whoever had sent the message was typing another message.The next message read; hey It’s Ethan, meet me at this address and ask to see me. That got me to finally leave the bed. I needed to have a conversation with him, concerning yesterday. I walked into the bathroom doing my morning routine before walking into the closet to get dressed.I pull on a pair of black cargo pants and a white corset top. I matched the outfit with s

I lay on the living room couch in shorts and a cropped tank top with my legs over the armrest as I spoke to Shayna over the phone. I wish I had places to be instead of staying here all day. It’s been a week since I was over at Ethan’s and I was just telling Shayna about it. “You’re kidding,” Shayna exclaims, covering her mouth.“I swear I’m not, I was surprised too. William’s aunt, Celia, asked me to inform them that lunch was ready. She already told me her son was going to be there but never in a million years did I think it would be him.”“That’s so wild.” She comments, taking a sip from her bottle.“He even had the nerve to nudge my feet during lunch. I swear I was so rigid throughout, I just wanted the lunch to be over quickly.” I say slightly cringing as I recall that day.“This is so messy. If I were you, I swear I would have found an excuse to not be at that table.” She says rubbing the back of her neck. “I respect you for being able to sit through that Lunch.” She says laugh

Hey, you up?; Read the text message, I glanced at the clock that read 11p.mWhy was he even asking that?It's been a week and a half since my first horse ride with Ethan, after then Ethan and I exchanged numbers and hung out a few times. He was easy going which made it easier to be friends with him. And as for William, we've grown further apart, not like we were even close to begin with. I hardly see him anymore nor do we exchange words, he now goes on a lot of business trips and for longer periods too.Presently, he was away again on another business trip, William talked, back to the message I got from Ethan. “No, leave me alone, I am still sleeping” I texted back, placing my phone on the bedside table as I got under the covers. Not up to a minute later, the sound of my ringtone slices through the silence in the room. I groaned already knowing who was calling. Maybe if I ignored it he would stop calling.I watched it as it rang, I let out a sigh of relief as it finally stopped, and

"If you aren't ready in thirty minutes, I'm leaving without you," William says, forcefully slamming my room door behind him.William didn't tell me where we were going but I had prior knowledge that tonight was Ethan's birthday. He already told me a few days ago so I had enough time to get him a gift.I quickly curled my hair and slid on the light blue A-line gown. With my heels in hand, I hang my purse on my shoulder and pick up my gift as I rush to meet up with William just in case he truly decides to leave me behind.I get in the car with a few minutes to spare. I secure my seatbelts as William speeds out of the driveway to where Ethan's birthday is taking place.I slid on my heels and watched as the scenery went by. A couple of minutes later, we finally arrived at the venue which had me dropping my jaw.Ethan's birthday was taking place on a yacht. The yacht was by the dock, the bright lights on, giving it the allure of a party. William walked ahead, his face stoic as he boarded
