Megan was shocked. “But-But it wasn’t me, it was her,” said Megan, pointing at Emily.“How dare you hurt my niece!” shouted Beatrice.Joshua was shocked by her words. He looked at Emily.Emily looked away from him.Vicky was shocked. “Emily is your niece.”“Yes. She’s the most precious person to me.”Vicky gasped in horror.Joshua’s eyes widened in shock.“But you said-” said Megan.“Pfft! You think I would really choose you to represent my clothes line?”“You said that I was-”Beatrice laughed. “What makes you think that I was going to choose you over my beautiful and gorgeous niece.”“What?”“That is true Beatrice never said that she was going to choose Megan as her model,” thought Joshua. He sighs as everything was a complete mess.“Just look at you. You’re not pretty. You’re not even attractive. Hell. You don’t have anyting. You’re nothing,” said Beatrice.The othe women were all laughing and giggling at Megan.“Tsk. She was cocky about being Madam Beatrice’s favorite, looks like
“Joshua. Joshua!” exclaimed his mother, following him. Joshua was walking fast to the car. “Joshua!” shouted his mother. “What!” exclaimed Joshua. “Joshua, I didn’t think. I didn’t think this would happen.” “That’s your point mother! You never think. You never think that by bringing that woman back here it would caused this much problem.” “I’m-I’m sorry,” said his mother. “Mother, I know you want what is best for me, but by bringing her back it’s not going to change anything.” “But-But I thought-I thought you loved her.” “What?” asked Joshua. “I thought you still love her.” “What makes you think that?” asked Joshua, frowning. “Well-Well, it’s because you didn’t even touched your wife, Emily.” “Mother, just because I didn’t touched my wife doesn’t mean that I still love my ex-girlfriend.” “But you-you were so heartbroken when Megan got married to that man.” “Mother, I wasn’t heartbroken. I was heartbroken due to something else.” “What?” “You misunderstood me mother.”
“Get out,” said Joshua. “What?” asked Megan. Joshua looked over at her and said, “Get out!” Megan’s breath quicken in anger. She opened the passenger side of the door and exited the vehicle. Joshua drove off with the car’s tires screeching. “Humph!” stomped Megan. It was nearly dark when Megan got back to her place. Megan unlocked her apartment and walked in with a huff and a puff. She was pissed off that Joshua kicked her out of his car halfway to her home. “That jerk!” shouted Megan. Megan unzipped her dress but it was stuck. She couldn’t undo the zipper. In anger she toss her purse onto the table. She couldn’t believe that she was humiliated by Emily. Again she was second best to her her. Shame by the woman who took everything from her. Angry and frustrated she started to toss her room. She started pacing around the room as she was running out of money. “That bitch ruined everything!” exclaimed Megan. “Now, now, what made you so angry?” asked a man in the corner of the r
Joshua enter Emily’s room and sat down on her bed. He laid down where Emily would always sleep. On nights when he sneak in her to see that’s she’s resting comfortably, she would wrapped herself in his jacket or shirt. She would held his piece of clothing close to her and fall asleep.Joshua smiled at the thought of seeing Emily holding onto his piece of cloth."How I wish you really do miss me as much as you pretend to," he thought. Memories of their past came tumbling through his mind.FLASHBACKIt was a bright and sunny day.Joshua was fourteen years old. His grandfather and him went out that weekend. They were out fishing on the grand lake. His grandfather brought his boat and they were going to drift along the shore catching some bass and catfish for breakfast. After that they were going to rest up in their cabin and enjoy the afternoon. Once they’re done they were going to watch the sunset under the evening sky.It was early in the morning when they were unpacking.“Grandfather,
“Like more handsome?”Emily burst out laughing. “No.”Joshua also laughed and clicked his tongue and said, “Hey I got you to laugh there.”Emily smiled at him. She thought, “You are pretty cute though.”Joshua smiled back at her. He handed his hand to her and said, “Come on.”Emily frowned. “Where are we going?”“To my grandfather. He’ll help you find your way back home.”“Um, my grandfather told me not to talk to strangers,” said Emily, backing away from him.Joshua smiled and leaned into her.Emily gasped at their closeness.“Strangers, I’m hurt. We’ve been talking all morning long and you consider me a stranger.”“Ah. Oh. I-I. I didn't mean- Um... I’m sorry.”Joshua chuckled and said, “Alright. I will take that apology this one time only because I’m feeling sorry for you being lost.”Emily nodded.“Not to mention you insulted of not being handsome too.”Emily looked at him with a sad look.Joshua laughed and said, “I’m kidding. No need to look so upset.”Emily smiled at him as he w
“Emily,” said the front receptionist. “Yes?” questioned Emily. “There’s a man by the name of Joshua waiting for to meet you.” “Joshua?” “Yes. Joshua MacClare.” “Oh.” “Yes, ma’am. He said you would know him if I tell him your full name.” “Humph. What does he want?” asked Jordan. Emily put up her hand and walked around the corner. There she saw that it was indeed Joshua. He was waiting in the front desk. He had a basket of flower with him. “Tffft,” she scoffed. “Ma’am?” asked the receptionist. “Let him wait.” “Okay.” Emily stopped and turned around. “If he asked just say that I’m here but I’m busy.” “Alright.” Emily turned around and walked away. She pressed the elevator button to come to the floor. “Oh, that’s a first time that you rejected seeing your lover,” said Jordan. “Ex-husband,” said Emily. “Right.” Emily remained quiet as the elevator door ding opened. She stepped into the elevator and watched as the elevator door closed. “I’m sorry sir, but our CEO’s grand
“Emily,” said her secetary. “Yes?” “It’s about nine o’clock in the evening. I think you should go ahead and go home to rest.” “Wow, is it that late already?” “Yes.” “Alright,” said Emily. She got up and got her purse out of the drawer. She turned off the lights and walked out of her office. When she got down the elevator and was about to exit the main building’s entrance she noticed Joshua. Joshua was waiting for her at the front entrance. He seemed to be pacing around the reception’s desk. Emily frowned as to why he was still there. As she got closer she noticed that he was looking rather anxious. This is the first time she have ever seeen him so nervous. Knowing Joshua before, he was not the patient man to wait upon her. He is more of the man who would blew up the moment he have to wait any longer. That’s why if she was to take too long on getting ready he would just leave her. At least that’s what he did in the past. Emily didn’t think that he waited this long for her. Tha
When Joshua came home, he sat back down on Emily’s bed. He laid himself back down on the bed. He turned to his side and pretended that she was sleeping next to him. He said, “Emily, I really missed you. How I took you for granted.” He closed his eyes and another memories flashed through his mind.The next following morning he took the basket of flowers and went outside to the garden. He then put the flowers he plucked for her and dug holes and replanted them back into the ground.“What are you doing, young master MacClare?” asked Butler Shawn.“Planting,” replied Joshua.“Planting?”“Yes.”“What?”“These flowers.”“Huh?” asked Butler Shawn, leaning over Joshua’s shoulder.Joshua was digging holes with his hands and putting the flowers into the hole and burying the tip of it.Butler Shawn frowned as that is not a way to plant flowes and there is no way those flowers would survive being planted in like that without any roots.Joshua made space and planted every flowers from his basket.
