An engagement party is a party that's celebrated to share the happiness of engaged couple with close relatives, especially family. If Mr. Salvatore invited the Ainsley's, it meant the relationship between the two families in good connections.
Sia helped me get ready, but my mind was never where I stood on. The more I wanted to avoid the thoughts about him, the more those magnetic eyes popped in my mind. My heart was literally aching, recalled those moments when I spent my moments with him.
My concentration was divided as my mind focused solely on him, on our memories. The beauty of his eyes when he stared deeply at me, his deep voice but soothing to the soul, and his laughter that I could never get rid of my thick skull.
It was like the end of the world for me when he suddenly disappeared. I wish I knew where he was. He had made up his mind, nothing could change him but himself. And I respected his decision, but he couldn't just lea
"What have you done to her?" I asked in my low voice."What's your business with her, huh?" Alia whimpered in fear and gave me a look, telling me there was no use against this damn chunky guy. "Get out of my way or else you'll be in trouble too." I was cringed at his threat."What if I don't want to!" I answered firmly. If there was a problem that drew Alia into it, somehow my courage increased. I realized even in my head I didn't know what to do. However, my intuition was clear to protect this girl."So you challenged me?" His eyes were filled with nasty intuition. The biggest lie that ever covered my face was pretending to be brave. Honestly, I was afraid to think about what his next action would be."What can you do if I do this?" He pulled my hands, I tried so hard to release the grip. Alia didn't stay silent, she helped me, but her strength wasn't strong enough until she bounced back and I crashed into the back
*Bang**Bang**Bang*Either Jake or Haytham had released the bullet.The sound of roaring gunshot interrupted the silence that had wrapped this hallway. From the end of the hall, several man coming out and holding a fucking guns.In a hurry, I released my hug from Alia. The door was smashed forcefully causing a riot that also hit from the others. My brain was just filled with him, Jake. Would he be alright? And, Haytham? I was hoping both of them not trying to kill each other."I'm scared." My widened eyes were returning to the girl in front of me. Her two hands holding me in panic. Tears devoured her seraphic stare. Not only her cheek, but her whole face turned red. "Haytham in danger." She paled.I squeezed my eyes shut before answering, "Listen to me, I know this is really hard for you. But, trust me, Haytham can take care of himself. You don't need to worry, the most important thing is we have to
Barra carried a sleepy Alia in caringly motion like she was a little princess. I was watching him, bemused.He looked at my tired eyes, "Let's go home." A sweet-charming smile showed up.Home... He said it like it was our home, place for us to spending our time together as a little family. Warmth returned to my cheeks just imagining it. The stone that had frozen my heart literally shattered.My locked mouth now let out a voice, "I can't wait to sleep." I yawned.His warm gaze was giving me the slight chill on the back of my neck.Walking towards the exit, we met Niki and Sean who were already preparing to leave this mansion.And, Haytham ... I didn't know what happened to him. Lowkey, I was hoping there wasn't something bad happening to him.After a small talk, finally we made it outside. The clouds were so dark, they were covered with thunderous sounds. It was abou
"I promise I won't cry if you accompany me here." The boy replied with a face that began to glow."Dummy! How could I leave you, I have no friends except you." She chuckled as soon as she sat on the mattress with The Amazing World of Gumball pictures as the bed sheet."What were you doing?" Jazzlin's eyes looked around her, the room was like an abandoned room. It was chaotic and neglected.He shrugged in a half shoulder, "I just keep playing with that." He pointed at his LEGO Games.The little girl narrowed her eyes and nodded slowly, "I don't like playing that." She commented but it was more like ordering the boy to understand what she really wanted.A sweet smile slipped on the boy's face as he approached the girl who had her arms crossed over her chest, "Then, what are you going to play with?" He asked in a light voice."Cooking? Um-no, my mom will be angry if I burn the plants i
The sunlight seemed to blind my eyes, making me pulled the pillow over my face.Wait a minute ... I threw the pillow away and sat down. Since when had I returned to my room? Oh yeah, I fell asleep last night.I groaned, "Seems like she's awake." A man's voice made me turn to the right.Barra held the hand of a little girl, Alia."Alia." I shouted excitedly. Jumping off the bed and running as fast as lightning just to hug the girl in front of me. "Have you been awake since earlier?" I asked between my face brushed her hair."I even had breakfast." Alia whispered."Your hair smells like strawberries." I commented when I let go of my hug."Do you like it?" The girl's face lit up. She looked so cute with red hairpin pinning her bangs."Uh-huh, you're so beautiful." I pinched her cheek lightly, making her grin cheerfully."Barra bought i
I don't know since when, but being reborn into Jazzlin Ozza wasn't the easy thing I thought of before. My quiet life turned towards beating the flow through a life full of challenges.Barra stepped on the gas to maximum speed. It was like surrendering to the angel of death."Hold on tight, Alia." I screamed with my face I no longer knew how the expression was. My hand squeezed the seat. All thoughts seemed to disappear.Barra was relaxed even though he had repeatedly run red lights and I didn't even fucking care anymore what other problems we would face afterwards.I was trying to looked at the rear-view mirror, two sedans still chased us, "Jazzlin, get the gun in my pocket!" Barra hinted at what was under his jeans jacket."What?" Barra also had a gun! I was suspicious from the start with everyone in these fucking families. "What do you want me to do?" I screamed still with my cold, shaking hands.
Father.One person furthest away from Jazzlin.Their relationship was never on a good line. Since the divorce, her father still frequently visited Jazzlin. However, she refused to meet him.Jazzlin hated his father. Hate was a strong word for her, she never messed with the word if she didn't really dislike someone. So when she expressed hatred for her father. You know that she didn't lie, let alone play around when she said it.Based on what was sliding in my head, Jazzlin's father was rumored to be having an affair. It was likely that he was now married to another woman and had a new family.The relationship between father and daughter was fine at first. Her father loved her so much and always treated his daughter like a little princess.However, his relationship with Rose Ozza was stretched out for some reason. Every day, Jazzlin had to hear the great quarrels between her father a
After hours of lonely journey, we finally reached our destination. Getting out of the car, I exhaled.For me, it was now or never to finally meet Jeremy Ozza.In front of me there was a luxe penthouse that towering over other buildings. It was located right in downtown.I had got myself drooling when I was entering it. The design and interior were so magnificent. The color combination walked between elegant and simple way. Wow, apparently my father had been living there."This way." One of our guides directed our way to the lift. He informed us that we were going to the top floor. Just past the third floor my legs were shaking, sweat was streaming between my thighs.I pressed my eyes until a hand gripped my ice cold hand. Peeping, as always... it was Barra.He didn't even look at me in the slightest, but his grip calmed the turmoil of my soul. He knew the right time to calm me down
