Ruby sighed, sitting on her bed. She had been packing her luggages since morning and it seemed like it was never ending. She never knew she had so much stuff. Yesterday after signing the contract with Luke, Gabriel had entertained them a little before they had bid bye. Ruby had been to her part time work places and resigned right away. It was kind of difficult to resign from her job at the departmental store that she used to work at. It was not a problem with the owner but the memories of breaking up with her then boyfriend, Adam in that place made it difficult for her. She had left the place with tears in her eyes. Within a span of a month, her life was turned upside down. One moment, she had a boyfriend whom she thought it was a serious relationship and the next moment she had broken up with him and signed up to become a surrogate and then she was carrying someone's child and now she was even moving in with him and had signed to become his pretend g

12 Luke and Ruby had settled down quite well. Ruby felt like she was living in a whole different world. Luke had been a sweetheart and made her feel at home. He had a separate room arranged for her. It was like a princess room. And the attached bathroom in her room was not lacking any amenities. Ruby had to not worry about anything else. In fact, Ruby found herself having a lot of free time and she had no idea how to spend it. She spent her time at Luke’s penthouse, mostly exploring the place. And she found it hard to exquisite. She compared Gabriel’s independent house to Luke’s huge penthouse. The view from the penthouse was picturesque. And Ruby loved to see the sunrise and sunset from the huge window in the living room. Luke was getting ready for work. H

“What? Dinner? At your parents’ place?” Ruby almost screamed as she plopped down on the couch. Luke came home after a long day of work and told her about his father's dinner invitation. Ruby felt like she was not yet ready to meet the other members of Luke's family. She surely had met David. He seemed like a nice man but that was a very brief meeting. “Yes, dinner. At my father's house,” Luke said and took a seat next to her.Ruby pouted at him and Luke could not help but notice how cute she looked at this moment. But he did not dare voice out his thoughts. “You will have to meet them at some point. The sooner the better,” Luke said, trying to convince her. Ruby continued to pout. That wa

“Hey, make that baby shut its mouth,” screamed the young girl from her first class seat on the plane. The flight attendants came running towards her seat. “We are sorry for the inconvenience ma’am. But the baby is getting fussy.” “What can I do if the baby is feeling fussy? I can't sleep with such noise,” said the young girl. The flight attendant tried her best to calm down the young girl, “I will talk to the parent once again. Once again sorry for the inconvenience.” the young girl huffed and leaned back in her seat. “Get me some red wine,” the young girl said to the other flight attendant while the previous one went on to talk to the guardian of the baby. They tried their best to soothe the crying baby. Afte

Seeing everyone ignore her and leave her alone, Gia's anger only doubled and tripped in a matter of time. She immediately stormed out of the penthouse. And she grabbed her phone from her purse and dialed her Aunt Anna's phone number. “Hey, sweetie,” Anna greeted from the other side of the phone. Gia cringed at her aunt's greetings. Normally she would have greeted back with the same enthusiasm but today she did not feel like reciprocating it. “I wish I could greet you with the same sweetness, auntie,” Gia said as she got off the elevator. She walked out with such anger fuming away from her body. The guard from earlier did not even spare a look at her side. That pissed her off even more. Because when ruby had entered the building, he had given her a polite bow.

The early morning light beamed through the windows of Luke's bedroom. He groaned not wanting to wake up yet. While he stayed in the bed, convincing his body to get up, he heard some sound from the next door. In the next room, ruby lived. He wanted to make sure that ruby is doing well so he kept her close to his room. Luke stopped moving on the bed and listened carefully to the sound. But still he could not get the sound properly. So he immediately jumped out of the bed and went to her room. There, he found ruby in her bathroom. Crouched, emptying her stomach. Although he was hesitant at first Luke was now used to being the helper. He went towards ruby and held her hair behind her head. And he rubbed her back trying to soothe her pain. When she was done with the job, ruby went to the sink and rinsed her mouth, all the while Luke held

Gabriel hummed a song as he walked through the corridors of Luke's company. He had no plans of joining the company and taking things seriously. So here he was, to bug his best friend. Gabriel saw that Luke's secretary was holding a cup of coffee as she came out of the pantry. He walked directly towards her, “Is that for me darling Madeleine?” He asked her. Madeleine was a twenty something girl and she had been working as Luke's secretary as recently as four months. She was good enough for the job and Luke was in dire need of a secretary as he had fired the previous one because of a certain reason. Madeleine looked up at Gabriel. She gave him a million dollar smile and said, “I am sorry to say this. But this is for the boss. If you want coffee then I will ma

Ruby came to the kitchen. She had been in her room since she had come back from the college. She wanted to bring Mia along with her just to show her the place. But Mia seemed to have other plans and she promised ruby that she would visit her very soon. Ruby saw Rosa collecting good potatoes. Ruby had grown to love Rosa's cooking. In fact she loved the fact that someone is here to cook for her and she did not have to worry about anything else. “Are you preparing for the dinner?” Ruby asked Rosa as she sat on one of the barstools near the aisle. Rosa turned around to face Ruby and smiled, “Yes, I was thinking of making Beef and mushrooms with smashed potatoes. It is very healthy for you and the baby. What do you think? Do you want anything else?” She asked.

Next day, Luke had left for the company quite early. And he did not miss to say bye to ruby and tell her to take care of herself and the baby. Ruby was done with the breakfast and now she was laying kn the couch in the living room while listening to some melodic music. Suddenly her phone rang. Ruby looked at the screen. It was an unknown number. She usually does not receive the phone calls from unknown numbers. But she did it this time. “Hello? Who is this?” Ruby asked. “It is me, Anna,” said the voice from the other side. “Anna?” Ruby repeated the name. Hearing the word, Rosa came outside the kitchen. She went closer to ruby and sat down next to her.

Luke was arranging the files in order. He had gone through them all and was done with it. He had sided his anger from the Anna situation and concentrated on office work. This was equally important. He had tired out his secretary, Madeleine as well.   “I think your secretary has run away,” Luke up from the files when he heard Gabriel's voice.   “I won't be shocked if she did. Because I have made her work the most today than any day,” Luke said and got back to his file.   “She was not there in her seat to welcome me,” Gabriel said, taking a seat opposite to Luke's. Luke sighed, shaking his head. Gabriel chuckled and handed the medium sized bag that he had brought with them.   Luke took it and raised his brows, “What i
