Shay's POV
It's funny how situations can quickly change in a quick span of time and expect things to happen in a particular way, but then it didn't turn out the way you thought it would be. Your mind could be telling you to stop but your heart is telling you to go on. I guess the reason why I had let that happened this morning was maybe because I had listened to my heart, because today before I even left the house I've been rehearsing everything to say to Jason in my mind. It's weird how a single moment can easily change everything so fast that I went from crying and spilling the truth (Wasn't planning to though) to kissing him and now sitting in his car completely enveloped in silence leaving me sorting out my thoughts alone.
I didn't get to resign from work today because the minute we left the rooftop, we t
Jason's POVThere weren't many people inside the café, considering that it was still early in the morning so there weren't many people around and I was glad because of that. I easily spotted him sitting in a far corner alone with his coffee so I made my way towards him. He immediately saw me and was about to stand up to greet me with a handshake but I quickly sat down on the vacant seat in front of him before he had the chance. He awkwardly withdrew his hand and then sat down while facing me with a smile on his face."I'm surprised you wanted to meet this early, Mr. Cartwright. So, what can I help you with?"He took a quick sip of his coffee and it totally gives away how unsettled and nervous he was. I sighed before reaching into my pocket and sli
Shay's POV"You're resigning?" My manager exclaimed in shock.I slowly nod my head and he reluctantly takes my resignation letter from my hand while letting out a heavy sigh."I didn't know you would want to resign this soon. You're my best secretary, Kellen."I nervously chuckled and gave him a broad smile."I'm really sorry for the short notice." He waved me off and then nods his head at me."Its fine, I understand. I do wish you all the best in the future. It was great working with you Shay.""You too, sir."
Shay's POVOh boy.Running into Jason's mom was so unexpected for me that my heart even jumped in surprise when she suddenly walks in. My body was frozen in shock and the words were unable to form in my mouth as we stood staring each other with confusion. She stood in front of me and squint her eyes while assessing me from head to toe."You look vaguely familiar. We've met before right?"I finally forced myself to speak and plastered a smile on my face."Yes, we have. I'm shay, it's so nice to see you again Mrs. Cartwright."I reached my hand out towards her and she shook my hand
Shay's POVThe car slowly stopped in front of the big iron gates outside, and Jason parked the car before turning around in his seat to face me."Thanks for bringing me home. I had a great time hanging out with your mom today.""She likes you, I'm pretty sure she won't shut up about you from now on every time we see each other."I chuckled and released my seatbelt."Will you be okay going in there and facing them alone?" He asked with a hint of concern in his tone."Of course, I've gone through worse so staying away from home for one night is nothing. Don't worry about me."
Shay's POVThe tension in the room grows thicker and thicker at every passing minute. My mind went blank when I tried to come up with ways to escape this situation and I can't help but fidget with my fingers as it was the only thing that I can do to keep myself calm. Dad has been giving me the death stare for the last five minutes I've been sitting here in his study, I knew why he wanted to talk to me this early in the morning and that's because he found out about my job through the news article."Now I know the reason why you didn't wanna work at the company. How long were you planning to keep this from us?!" He roared angrily."I already quit my job." I answered monotonously."That doesn't make th
Shay's POVI couldn't believe it. Shawn had already prepared a will without telling any of us and I'm so petrified right now that he even thought of arranging a will at this certain age of his life. It's weird, like how can he even thought of doing all this? He's still young and he's not married yet so what was his reason for signing a will? Wait, does this mean that he knew that something was going to happen to him soon? He knew something bad like this would happen in the future which is why he arranged a will in advance with his lawyer?Oh my god.....Everyone was sitting silently around the room, none of us are willing to say a thing just to break the uncomfortable silence in the air. Mom looked shaken up as any of us, Shawn's disappearance r
Shay's POVIf there's one thing that I really about my house, it's the boredom that surrounds you whenever you're alone. The walls around me may be too far from where I'm standing in the room, but it never fails to make me feel suffocated inside the space that I call my bedroom and because of that I am pretty sure that I'm claustrophobic by now. This is why I want to leave so badly, that way when I feel bored I can just do whatever I want to have some fun. Like go out for drinks or something or go to a club or even better, see Jason. He's so caring and thoughtful and always called or text me just to check up on me, it gives me butterflies every time he does that.My phone suddenly buzzed with a new notification, immediately disrupting my thoughts about Jason. I sat up in bed and checked my phone and smiled wh
Jason's POVShe walked out of her car with a joyful smile on her face and started to walk towards me. I returned the smile and when she came closer towards me intending to kiss me, I quickly turned my head to the side and kissed her on the cheek instead. My last conversation with Chase was still ringing in my head and I can't seem to block his words out of my head and not look distracted in front of her or else she might noticed what's wrong. I've realized that these last few days that I've been with her, my plans are not working in a way that I wanted it to. It's completely frustrating because whenever she's with me, I completely forgot everything that I was supposed to do and instantly indulged myself in having a good time with me.What the hell is wrong with me?!
