《Secretly Married To My Professor》 Chapter 1 - Prologue It was a sunny summer and the sky is as clear as a crystal that it gives some peaceful and calm feeling to the person who is watching it. In the Gonzales Mansion, it was very opposite to how calm the sky is, it was very very lively, the servants were literally running around the house, as they were cleaning every inch and every space of the house making sure not a speck of dust must be seen or touch. For today, is a very important day for the Gonzales Family. They will now introduce to their one and only daughter, Ayesha, her soon-to-be husband. The young man''s family will arrive at the evening so they still have the whole morning and afternoon to prepare for a small the party that will only be composed of the Gonzales and Salvador Family. "I''m so excited to meet our son-in-law." Mrs. Gonzales exclaimed while she is personally arranging the flowers. "It has been so long since we saw that child. I bet he have grown to be fine young man now" she added. "Since that incident happened we never saw him come to our place, beside Ayesha also doesn''t remember him." Mr. Gonzales said in a sad voice "It has been eight years yet the two of them were still stuck with him. I too miss him so much but we can''t do anything about what happened but we are still trying our best to know who their kidnappers are." He added. Mrs. Gonzales pinched Mr. Gonzales side, "Ay yah you old man stop making the lively room gloomy. Let''s just talk about our future grand children." Mrs. Gonzales suggested. Then the two elder were chatting happily in the living room. On the other hand, their daughter, Ayesha was planning on escaping this so-called arrange marriage which is somehow a tradition for some elite family. She wanted to break and go against that tradition because she believe that she must only marry the man he loves. "Should I tell my parents that I have already found a boyfriend?" she thought to herself because her parents have told her that once she didn''t find herself a boyfriend at the age of nineteen, they would introduce her fiance when the perfect time comes and that perfect time is today. Ayesha have been listing all the possible reason she could think of just to break the marriage alliance. While she was thinking on what to do just to break the marriage alliance and the Elder Gonzales Couple were busy arranging the small party. In the soon-to-be groom''s family was in chaos for the young man is no where to be found. "How could your son do this to us? He already knew that today is the day where he would meet his fiance." the young man''s father angrily said. The young man''s mother is also angry and at the same time worried. They didn''t know where to find their son who was just hiding in one of his private house. He knew who is his soon-to-be wife. He was actually delighted by the fact that the girl he loves will be his fiance but at the same time he is afraid because of the reason that he will be her English Professor and homeroom teacher. And it is a big no no for a teacher to have a relationship with one of his student. And he also don''t want to tarnish the girl reputation in school. Well yes maybe some people will understand but there are still some people who are really close minded and they prefer judging people without understanding the situation properly. And he also wanted to give some freedom for the girl while they still haven''t meet each other in person. While thinking about the situation, he felt his head and eyes aching. So he decided to close his eyes and just take a nap, he was also tire and exhausted from a four hours drive from his parents house to his private place. ------ Gonzales Mansion The Salvador Family had been apologizing to the Gonzales Family as soon as they arrived at the Mansion "We are very sorry, our son went missing this morning. I should have tied him on his bed of I have known that he would do this to us." Mrs. Salvador told Mrs. and Mr. Gonzales "It is okay, we understand him. Maybe he just needed some time to think about this marriage." Mrs. Gonzales said as she tap Mrs. Salvador''s shoulder. "There is still plenty of time for both our children to meet each other" Mr. Gonzales said "Let us just eat some dinner, we have prepared so many dishes." Mrs. Gonzales guided the Salvador Couple to the kitchen. Ayesha was really happy about what she had heard from Mrs. Salvador. She was really grateful and thankful for what the man did. She didn''t want to meet him yet. She still have so many things to do and achieve before engaging herself to the married life. She should enjoy herself of being free because while she was planning her "How to break the Marriage Alliance" she realized that she really couldn''t break it because it was a marriage alliance done by her Grandpa and the young man''s Grandma. Even though she is doted by her Grandpa she still knew that her Grandpa''s mind won''t change once she would bring this topic to him. As long as her Grandpa lives no one could defy his orders because he is still the leader of the Gonzales Household. Chapter 2 - Goddess Ayesha The weather is calm and the fresh wind is blowing gently. It blew the long shiny hair of a young girl who is walking towards the school gate. Every student were mesmerized by the maiden''s beauty. She was like a goddess who had came down from heaven. Ayesha placed some hair strand that were covering her face at the back of her ears. "Senior Ayesha is so beautiful." A first year student commented as he was looking at his Senior Goddess with eyes full of admiration. "She really is the epitome of beauty." Another student said. and everyone agree to what she said. "She is not only beautiful but she also is very smart and kind, well it must be expected because she is the only sole heiress of the Gonzales Family." Another student said and many agreed to her also. Among the students who were praising Ayesha''s beauty are also eyes that shows jealousy and hatred. Sabrina along with her subordinates where eyeing Ayesha as a prey. Sabrina was Ayesha''s rival and also her mortal enemy. Well Sabrina was the only one who ?ssumes that she is Ayesha''s rival for Ayesha didn''t know Sabrina''s existence at all. Ayesha didn''t care about the other students who were praising her, she hurriedly made her way towards her classroom. It is the first day of a new school year and she is now in her last year in this university. Once she arrive at her classroom, a small person was hugging her. "Ayesha, I missed you so much." said the small person who was hugging Ayesha. Ayesha then patted the head of her only best friend and sister-like, Aria Ventura. They were already best friends since fetus, Aria''s mom and Ayesha''s mom were best friends during their younger days. So it was also the same for their daughter''s to be bestfriends. "I missed you too Aria, you didn''t even grew an inch." Ayesha teased as she walks towards her seat. Aria glared at Ayesha and pouted. It is true that she didn''t even grew and inch during their summer break. She tried every method that could possibly make her grow but to her dismay none of it work. "Yesha don''t tease me, I have already accepted the fact that I won''t grow any taller now." Aria said to Ayesha. She stared at Ayesha, "Hey! Have you already met your fiance?" she ask her. Ayesha also stared at her and shook her head, "We didn''t met, he actually didn''t came and I''m very thankful of what he did." she said as she took her journal out from her bag. Ayesha was really thankful to him, she''s not yet ready to marry someone. And she also like someone already. He also came from a very prestigious family. Just thinking of his face made Ayesha blush. While lost in her own day dreaming, she didn''t realized and felt that someone is now watching her from a far. His pair of green eyes full of admiration as he was watching the girl''s red face, "Is she blushing?" he thought to himself. Just thinking of the fact that someone is making her blush made his blood boil, he is the only one who has the right to make her blush. "Mr. Salvador it is now time for you to go to your class now." a teacher interrupted his thoughts. He was spacing out and didn''t even heard the bell rang. He then immediately nodded and excused himself after gathering his things and made his way to the classroom. As he was walking along the corridors, the eyes of the students, specifically the girls were watching him full of admiration, some were even shrieking because of giddiness. When he arrive at the Class 4-A''s classroom, his eyes immediately wandered, looking for her. He then introduce himself as soon as he spotted her in her sit. "Good Morning everyone, I am Mr. Knight Liwei Salvador. And I will be your professor in English and your class adviser for this whole year." He said in a very baritone voice. The girls where constraining themselves not to scream because of the handsome man in front of them. The boys greeted him though. "He is so handsome." one student said dreamingly. "Is he a new teacher?" someone curiously asked. Knight heard what the student have said and he answered her. "Yes I am a new teacher at this school so I''m expecting everyone''s cooperation and help." he said while glancing at Ayesha''s table. "Mr. Salvador, my we ask how old are you? If it''s ok with you Sir." one student shyly asked. "Well I''m already 25 years old." he answered them. "Are you single Sir? Or do you have a girlfriend Sir?" a student asked. And it was quite a personal question but Knight still answered her. "I am still single and I don''t have a girlfriend... but I already have a fiance." Knight said while glancing back at Ayesha''s table. It is true that he is still single and he doesn''t have a girlfriend at all. The girls were disappointed after hearing his answer. Ayesha on the other hand didn''t even glance at her homeroom teacher, she was still busy day dreaming about the face of her long time crush. Chapter 3 - Supreme Student Council President Ayesha was busy writing and doodling in her journal she didn''t even noticed that someone is already standing in front of her. She had only notice the person when her desk was tapped gently. She slowly look up and saw that it was her homeroom teacher. She was star struck for a few seconds. "What a handsome man?" she loudly said. All her classmate giggle at what she had said. She was surprised when she realized that she actually said out loud the thought in her head. She then stood up and bow to her teacher, "I''m sorry Mr. Salvador!" she apologies. Her homeroom teacher just smiled to her and said, "I forgive you. Just please keep your journal, I didn''t instruct you to write something. And thank you for your compliment." then he wnet back to the front and continue discussing the rules and regulations for their classroom. Ayesha nodded and keep her things inside her bag and she took a glance at Aria who was focusing her eyes in front. Ayesha just saw her bestfriemd drooling over a very handsome creature. She then brushed her thought about how handsome their homeroom teacher because for her their is only one handsome man, their Supreme Student Councl President and also Ayesha''s crush. They were dismissed after all the important things had been said and were clarified. Aria hurriedly approached Ayesha. "Yesha let''s go to the cafeteria, I''m so hungry." Aria said while holding at her tummy while slightly dragging Ayesha who was still arranging her things. "Ok! Let''s go to the cafeteria but first we must go to the S.S.C office, I need to see him." Ayesha requested. They passed by the S.S.C Office and they didn''t saw the President. Ayesha was very gloomy because she didn''t saw him. She was expecting to see him there busy reading but to her dismay he was not even around. When they arrive at the cafeteria, Ayesha became alive again. She just saw him sitting alone at the back near the window. But to her dismay again, he was not actually alone. He was with the Vice President who is actually also pretty. She was supposed to be the person beside him. If only she was permitted by her parents to run in the Supreme Student Council. Her parents wanted her to focus on her studies because it will be her last year in college and they don''t want their precious daughter to be pressured with both school works and as an officer. "Ayesha let''s just get our foods, they maybe went here to just eat and nothing else." Aria said and drag Ayesha towards the line. "Let''s sit at that empty table next to theirs." Ayesha suggested. As soon as they got their food they hurriedly went to the empty table and sat there. -------- Meanwhile in the faculty office, someone is actually very satisfied on his first day of work. He just spoke to her and she even called him handsome. And because of what she said, actually made Knight''s heart go wild and he can''t just stop smiling. "She just called me handsome." He thought to himself again for the tenth time. A co-teacher approached him, "Happy are we Mr. Salvador." she said shyly and in a very sweet voice. The teacher in front of him has the same age as him, she is also beautiful and has a nice body figure but Knight won''t be fooled by his co-teachers cheap antics, she was clearly seducing him. "Ah yes my fiance just sent me some very sweet and encouraging message." He said proudly while thinking of what Ayesha had told him earlier. The co-teachers face became gloomy and she then said her goodbye to Knight. "Oh good for you Mr. Salvador. I''ll go know because I might have disturbed you. Goodbye Mr. Salvador." She said then went out of the faculty room. Knight grinned at the his co-teacher''s reaction, then he started thinking again of what happened earlier while smiling from ear to ear. If only Knight''s secretary is around he would have thought that his boss is going crazy from being madly in love to the girl who had even forgotten him. On the second thought, Knight''s secretary is actually thinking right now that his boss is actually crazy because of the reason and fact that he have just left his big company under his secretary''s care just to be an english teacher. Who would do that? Leaving your position as the CEO of a multibillion company just to be an english teacher and take note WITHOUT informing your own parents. The only person who could do that is his boss, Knight Liwei Salvador. Knight''s secretary is now crying inside his heart because of how his boss have turned from being ruthless to being careless just to see his fiance everyday. He decided to set aside his real work. Chapter 4 - Confession Ayesha was looking at her journal. "The days had passed by so fast and today is already Friday." she thought to herself. She then started scribbling and writing in her journal. This is one of her past time when she is bored or she has nothing to do. She would do some sketches and she would write one her journal. She initially wanted to take a Fashion Designing as her college course but then she realize that she needs to take the place of her father''s position as the CEO of their company so she just choose to take a Business Course and set aside her dreams. She can always study again since she is still nineteen and she is already at her last year of college. "Senior Ayesha!" someone said in front of Ayesha and interrupted her from what she her sketching. Ayesha looked up and saw a guy who she guess is a Second Year student. "Yes? How may I help you? she politely asked and stopped what she was doing. "I have been admiring you since I was a first year student." The guy confess as he hand a love letter and then he bowed and hurriedly left. Ayesha look at the love letter and she sighed. This is already her 60th love letter and she heard her 50th confession. For this past few days she already recieve so many confessions and love letters from her junior schoolmates and some of her classmates. She really don''t care if this student''s would call her The Campus belle or the School''s Goddess because she really don''t give some attention to it. She knew that there are still students who look beautiful than her. She again looked at the letter and keep it in her bag, she will place it in the box under her bed where she kept all the love letters that she have recieve when she was still a high school student. Sabrina saw the whole scene and was utterly jealous by how popular Ayesha is without even exerting any effort. She have already made so much effort for the students to appreciate her and also look at her but her efforts where still not enought to beat Ayesha. Sabrina and Ayesha have a big difference, Ayesha doesn''t need any attention because the attention of her love onse are alrrady enough for her even if her crush doesn''t give her attention she is still ok with it. And she also doesn''t care about wheather she is popular or not but Sabrina is somewhat a bratty and an attentiom seeker. "Senior Ayesha please take this love letter" one guy said and he rushed out from the classroom. "Senior Ayesha we love so much so please accept this box of handmade chocolate." two girls were handling her a box. Ayesha accepted it and she politely thanked them. It is not yet valentines day and it has only been four days since the new school year start. So why were this students giving her love letters and saying their confessions. ----- Ayesha''s day was full of love letters and confession. After her last period, Aria asked her out to eat something in the restaurant near their school. "Yesha can we eat something in my favorite restaurant." asked Aria. "Aria I can''t come with you, I have something to do. I''m so sorry." Ayesha said. Then she bid farewell to Aria before she made her way to the opposite direction. " Calvin, I have been in love with you since we where still in first year." Ayesha actually froze as she heard the familiar voice of the woman and the familiar name of the mqn. She hid in a corner where she can perfectly her their conversation. She knew that eavesdropping is bad but she can''t help herself. Well it is the Vice President of the S.S.C and the President which is at the same time her crush. "I wanted to be your girlfriend for a very long time. I hope you would accept my confession." the girl added. Calvin looked at her with so much disappointment. "I''m sorry but I still can''t engage myself into some sort of relationship." Calvin said in a cold voice and left the girl all alone. Ayesha was so shocked. Because first of all she didn''t expect to hear a confession and second, his long time crush just turned down the vice president''s confession. Ayesha went home directly, she even forgot to buy some ingredients for her chocolate cake. Because on tommorrow, will be Aria''s birthday and she wanted to make a birthday cake for her bestfriend. As soon as Ayesha arrive at their house, she went straight to her room and sat at her bedroom for a couple of minutes, still processing the event that happened earlier. Chapter 5 - Meeting her Fiance It was a cold Saturday morning since it rained last night. Ayesha is busy preparing her gift for Aria when her father entered her room and told her that today is the day that she well meet finally meet her fiance because the last time they arrange a small party for both families, the young man didn''t arrive. "But father, I cannot meet him today. You know it''s Aria''s birthday today. I need to attend her birthday party." Ayesha reasoned out because she is still not yet ready to meet his soon-to be husband because she new when the time they would meet each other. The wedding will be held as soon as possible. "You can just text Aria that today you will be meeting your fiance and that you cannot attend her party. Ayesha this will only be the first time that you cannot attend Aria''s birthday, I know she can understand you." Ayesha''s father said. Ayesha is very upset to his father but she knew that she cannot defy his orders. And besides this supposed to be meet up with his fiance was already postponed for too long. And she is also very curious who might her fiance be. She can just go against this marriage once she new who he was. Ayesha just nodded and grab her phone to send Aria a message. "Aria, I''m sorry. I cannot attend your birthday party. Father set me up to another "meeting the fiance" but I think this one would be successful. I will just ask Butler David to send my birthday gift today." Ayesha texted and she then went to the bathroom to prepare herself. Aria saw the text of her best friend and was a little bit sad because she cannot attend her party but at the same time she is happy for her because she will finally meet him. She can''t wait to ask her Ayesha who the guy is. "It''s okay Yesha and thank you for your gift." she texted back. After Ayesha had finished her dressing up. She then went out to go to the dining area. She had already read Aria''s message. "The Salvador family called and they said that they will arrive at around 1 o''clock this afternoon." Ayesha''s father said. "Ayesha we know that you are not yet ready to get married but this is your Grandfather''s wish." Ayesha''s mother said. Ayesha just nodded and played with her food while thinking of Aria''s party. She badly wanted to go because it is her best friends birthday party. ---- At exactly one o''clock in the afternoon, the Salvador Family arrive amd they were personally welcome by Mr. Gonzales. "Welcome back to our humble abode." said Mr. Gonzales said while shaking the hands of Mr. Salvador and Mrs. Salvador. "And you must be Knight?" he asked Knight and also give him a manly hug and he then lead them to the living room. Ayesha was busy texting Aria thus she didn''t notice that the Salvador Family had arrived. "Ayesha stop texting where are your manners." Mrs. Gonzales scolded her. Ayesha lifted her head up and she was shock when she saw her homeroom teacher. Then she remembered that his family name is Salvador. "Maybe he is the brother of my Fiance". She thought. Ayesha stood up and greeted the Salvador Family. "Good Afternoon Mrs. and Mr. Salvador. And to you also Mr. Salvador." she politely said and bowed. "Ah this child, just call me mother from now on because you will be my daughter-in-law soon" Mrs. Salvador said and gave Ayesha a kiss in the cheeks. Knight''s eyebrow twitched, "She just greeted me like I''m old man" he thought to himself. "Good Afternoon to you too, Ayesha." Knight replied. "Do you know each other?" asked Mrs. Salvador as she observed that Ayesha was shocked after seeing Knight. "He is my homeroom teacher and professor in English." Ayesha replied politely. Mr. and Mrs. Salvador were shocked when they heard Ayesha''s replied. Mr. Salvador look at Knight, and he understood what his father''s look means. He needs some explanation. "Uhmm where is my fiance?" Ayesha asked. Mr. Salvador and Mr. Gonzales looked at each other so does Mrs. Salvador and Mrs. Gonzales. Ah right Ayesha doesn''t have a clue who is her fiance. "Ayesha dear this is our only son Knight Liwei and he is your fiance." said Mr. Salvador. Ayesha''s jaw drop, she is completely shock, this handsome man is her fiance. "But he is my professor." Ayesha said while looking at Knight who is now very serious. "Yes he may be your professor but you still can keep it as a secret that you two are married." Mrs. Salvador pointed out. "But I am not still at the right age to marry." Ayesha said again and she hoped that this arrange marriage would be break. "Ayesha you are perfectly at the right age to marry. You are already nineteen." Said Mr. Salvador "But we two don''t know each other." Ayesha uttered again to her father. "Silly child you can have all the time to know each other before and after your marriage." Mrs. Salvador chuckled. Ayesha felt defeated from arguing and making excuses and reasons just to break this marriage that was made by her Grandpa and Knight''s Grandma. "So we should discuss now when will the wedding be held. You two can register your marriage on Monday, so that we could held the wedding as soon as possible." Mr. Gonzales said while looking at Knight and Ayesha. Ayesha felt devastated from what she heard while Knight is actually very happy and glad by his father''s and Ayesha''s father''s decisions. Chapter 6 - I love her since that day As soon as the Salvador family arrived at their house, Mr. Salvador look at his son, Knight with a questioning look. "Care to explain why you entered as a professor in the University where Ayesha is studying?" Mr. Salvador calmly said. He is not angry at what his son had done because he knew that his son had love that little child for so long. "I just wanted to see your future daughter in-law everyday that''s why I applied there" Knight explained to his father. "And to also see if there is someone who is pursuing her and I was so surprise when I saw that there were so many students who admire her, even the girls look up to her." Knight''s face became grim when he remembered the scene he saw for 7 days straight. She received so many confession and love letters. "You do really love her." His father commented. "Yes I do, I have been loving her since that very day. She had stolen my heart long time ago and she forgot to return it until now." Knight said as he remembered the day he first meet her. ---------- It was a sunny morning, the smell of fresh flowers lingers in the surrounding. The young Knight who at the time was only sixteen years old, was waiting in the Gonzales Family''s garden, he was patiently waiting for his friend, Spade Ezekiel Gonzales, Ayesha''s older brother. "Sorry to keep you waiting." a young man who was holding two towels in his hand said to Knight. He gave Knight the other one who was sweating so much, they had just finished jogging and playing basketball. They have a sleep over because Spade asked Knight to play games with him. "It''s okay" Knight replied and wipe his own sweat. The maids were placing Spade and Knight''s breakfast on the small table. The two decided to have their breakfast in the small pavilion located at the garden. "Why are your maids so busy today?" Knight asked as he observed that the servants were running around the house. "Oh them? They were just preparing because my sister will arrive today from France." Spade said while placing some foods on his plate. "She spent her summer vacation with our grandparents that''s why you haven''t seen her when you went here for the first time." he added. Spade and Knight had just became acquainted two months ago because of the reason that Knight also had just come back from New York at that time and it was also the time when Ayesha flew to France. So the two didn''t had the chance to meet each other. "I''ll introduce you to her later. " Spade said and he start eating his breakfast. Knight did the same. The two of them where busy chatting about the game they had played last night when suddenly a maid came interrupting their talk. "Sir Spade, your sister have already arrive." the maid said politely while bowing her head. Spade immediately stood up and drag Knight towards the front door. "Come quick Knight." he said as he drag Knight to the front door. He is so excited to see her sister again after two months of being away from each other. "Big Brother!" the young girl shouted as soon as she spotted her brother, and she ran towards his direction. "I missed you so much." she added while hugging her brother. As soon as Knight saw the young girl who was probably just ten years old, everything around his surrounding became slow. The girl''s smile had captured Knight''s heart, he wanted to see that smile everyday and he wanted to be the only reason for that smile to appear in the young girl''s face. "Knight Liwei! Knight Liwei! Hello! Earth to you bro." Spade called him for so many time because Knight was spacing out. Knight look at Spade as soon as he came back to his senses. "This is my sister, Ayesha Myne Gonzales. She is just six years younger than me." Spade introduce his sister to Knight. "Ayesha this is Knight Liwei Salvador my new found friend." Spade added. "Nice to meet you Big Brother Liwei " little Ayesha happily exclaimed and extended her hand for a hand shake. Knight took her hand and shook it, Ayesha''s hand is so soft. "Let''s go inside, you must be hungry. Let''s eat together." suggested Spade suggested. Knight took a glance at Spade, "Didn''t we already had our breakfast a while ago." he thought. "Knight come on, let''s have our breakfast, I bet you are already hungry." Spade said without looking at Knight. ------- Knight smiled as he remembered the day when they first met. And because of that he would visit Spade everyday so that he could see Ayesha and her radiant smile.

Love lots, XuJinLi Chapter 7 - Shocked "Brother don''t go... don''t leave me please, please stay awake" a little girl was begging her brother to stay awake. "Ba..by girl. You must... you must stay alive and please tell mom and dad that I love them so much. I love all of you and I don''t want to leave you all but I can''t endure it anymore." the guy said as he coughed and blood came pouring from his mouth. The little girl just cried as she saw her big brother closing his eyes and giving up before she too closed her eyes and let herself fall asleep. ------ Ayesha woke up from that dream of hers again and she wiped the tears from her eyes and then she stared at the small calendar near her bed. "Today is Sunday" she thought to herself. She is still feeling sleepy, she didn''t feel asleep because she was thinking of the accident that happened to her when she was thirteen years old. She start spacing out and memories of yesterday''s event came like a flood into her mind, she then remembered that yesterday was Aria''s birthday and for the first time she weren''t able to attend. She also remembered that she had already meet his fiance and it was his professor in English. Because of the memory, Ayesha screamed on her head. "PROFESSOR KNIGHT IS MY FIANCE! I AM GOING TO MARRY MY ENGLISH PROFESSOR!" She screamed inside her head. While she was still in shocked, her phone rang, it took her a couple of minutes before she finally answered it. "Hello" she lazily answered the phone call without even looking at the caller''s name. "Yesha let''s go out, I want to hear every part on what happend yesterday during your so called meet up with that mysterious fiance of yours." Aria said while brushing her hair. She had finished taking her morning shower unlike Ayesha who is still sitting at her bed with her bed hair. "Hmm.. Ok let''s go eat at your favourite restaurant, the one located near our school." Ayesha replied as she stood up. "No, let''s go together, I''ll pick you up at your house." Aria said. "Fine with me." Ayesha replied and she ended the call. She then went straight into her bathroom. As she was taking a shower, Aria was on her way to Ayesha''s house. After a 20 minutes drive, she arrived at the Gonzales Mansion and was greeted by the servants. "Aria what brings you here?" Mrs. Gonzales asked as she soon as she spotted Aria who was sitting in the living room. Aria stood up and went over to greet her Auntie Sandra, "Auntie Sandra, Good morning, I''m her to fetch Ayesha, we planned to eat outside." Aria said. "Where you busy planting some flowers again?" she asked when she saw that Mrs. Gonzales was holding a gloves and a shovel. Lucia Gonzales, Ayesha''s mother loves to plant flowers. It is her favourite past time when she won''t go to work. "Ah yes, I was just finishing the remaining flowers that I forgot to plant last time." Mrs. Gonzales explained. "I''ll go upstairs now Aria, I need to get ready cause I will go to the office. And enjoy your day" Mrs. Gonzales added before she went upstairs. "Good Morning mom." Ayesha greeted her mother. "Good Morning too dear. Take care and enjoy." Mrs. Gonzales replied to Ayesha. "I will mother." Ayesha said and she went straight to Aria. The two of them went inside to Aria''s car and off they go. The two of them where caught in a traffic and Aria was bugging Ayesha to spill the news on who is her fiance. She just couldn''t wait to know who was the mysterious guy that was arranged to her best friend. "Yesha please tell me who the guy is. You know I''m dying and itching to know his identity." Aria is begging Ayesha to spill the beans. "Aria I''m also dying and itching to put some duct tape on your mouth. I''ll tell you who the man is once we arrive at the restaurant. On the other hand, just tell me how was your party yesterday. I wasn''t able to attend because of that meet up. I was dying to enjoy that party but it was all shattered by my father" Ayesha said in a calm yet irritated voice. She was irritated because of her father and because of the traffic. She already wanted to eat some delicious sweet and sour pork and some dessert now. "Well the party went very amazing and superb, I also didn''t expect my brother to be there and it was one of a hella memorable party ever." Aria stated as she began driving again. Ayesha looked at Aria, "Your brother was actually there?" He actually went home just to attend your birthday party?" Ayesha asked in an amaze voice. Who would have thought that Aria''s brother would actually go home after so many years of staying in New York just to attend his sister''s nineteenth birthday party. "As I remember your parents were nagging and bugging him to visit your house just for a couple of weeks but he didn''t grant them." Ayesha added. "That''s why my mom was actually shocked when she saw brother yesterday. She even beat him a little." Aria chuckled as she remembered how her mother beat her brother and she even pinched his ears. While her father just gave his brother a manly hug. "I would definitely visit your house and ask him for my present." Ayesha jokingly said. "Yes you should visit him, I think he"ll stay here for good." Aria said. Her brother would be very excited to see Ayesha, she knew that her brother had a crush on Ayesha when they were still little. ------ They have arrived at their destination, Aria parked the her car and they went out and started walking towards the entrance of the restaurant. A waiter was guiding them to their seat, Aria have already reserved one for them. "Here''s the menu Miss Aria, Miss Ayesha." the waiter politely said has he handed the menu to Aria and Ayesha. Both of them are already well known customers here. Aria just love it here, they would sometimes eat here for lunch when they where still in third year. Ayesha order a Sweet and Sour Pork and a Spring roll. She also ordered some chocolate cake which she was craving for earlier. While Aria ordered some pancakes, vegetable salad and a mango shake as her dessert. The waiter listed their orders and he went back to the kitchen to give the orders of the two ladies to the chef. "Now tell me who is your fiance." Aria asked as soon as the waiter was out of sight. Ayesha still hesitated at first because she also can''t still believe who her fiance was. "Uhmm... you knew who the guy is, actually you already saw him in our school." Ayesha said. Aria looked at her and she eventually guess who the man is for herself because Ayesha didn''t directly spill the man''s name. "Is he uhmm Calvin" she said in a lower voice as soon as she recognize the man who is sitting at the back of Ayesha. Calvin just arrived and he choose to sit in the table next to Aria and Ayesha''s table. So he is actually facing Ayesha''s back. "No he is not the one and how I wish he is the guy." Ayesha immediately said. "It''s our Professor in English." she added in a low voice. Aria''s eyes widened as she remembered their English Professor. "WHAT? HE IS YOUR FIANCE?" she shouted. Jinyue immediately covered Aria''s mouth, "Shhhhh! You are so loud." Ayesha said and took her hand from Aria''s mouth. "Unfortunately yes, he is my fiance and he is that mysterious guy whom you are dying to know." she added. Aria was still in shock and she was still trying to process into her mind the information she had just learned today. "Oh my god you-" Aria didn''t finished her sentence because their order came at last. As soon as their order were placed in the table, Ayesha started digging her favourite food, the sweet and sour pork while Aria is still talking. "Oh my God, you actually caught a good fish you know. And I still can''t believe that Mr. Salvador is your fiance. He is just every girls dream man" Aria said and she also started digging at her food. "A fish?" Ayesha thought. "He is more like a Greek God who travelled in our time today." she added in her thought. "How can you say I caught a good fish?" she asked Aria who is now munching her favourite vegetable salad. "And why do you always eat that vegetable salad, you look like a rabbit or more like a cow." Ayesha added. "You caught a good fish, on the second thought he is not actually a fish but a Greek God so you caught a Greek God because Mr. Salvador is not only super duper handsome, he is also very smart, he speaks English very well with his american accent and he also have that baritone voice." Aria said dreamily. "And I just love to eat this vegetable salad because they are healthy and it is good when paired with Kung Pao Chicken" she added while munching her food. "Yeah whatever, you are just complementing him. Just finish your food because after we will go to your house, I wanted to see your parents and also your brother cause I''m going to get my present from him." Ayesha said then she start digging at her food again, specifically her dessert. Aria just nodded, her brother would be very delighted to see Ayesha again. Ayesha was busy munching and talking to Aria that she even didn''t notice a pair of eyes looking at her back. Those pair of eyes are looking at her intently. Chapter 8 - Ive missed you too As soon as Aria and Ayesha were done eating and paying their bills, they immediately went out. Ayesha didn''t even noticed Calvin who was sitting at the table next to theirs. "Aria give me the car key, I''ll drive the car." Ayesha extended her hand to get the car key from Aria. Aria''s eyes widened as she heard what Jinyue said. "No.. no no I''ll drive. I will not definitely let you drive the car Ayesha" and the Aria immediately and hurriedly went inside the driver''s seat. She didn''t want Ayesha to drive because instead of going to her house they might end up going to the hospital. She knew how reckless her bestfriend is when it comes to driving a car that''s why her parents insist of having a personal driver for her whenever she would go out. Ayesha just shrugged her shoulder when she saw Aria''s reaction. "I still can''t believe that you will marry that hot professor.. I mean Mr. Salvador" Aria commented as soon as Ayesha got herself inside the car. "And Yesha did your parents and Mr. Salvador''s parents already talked about your wedding?" she added. "Well yeah maybe, I think so. They just told us to register tomorrow." Ayesha lazily said. "I''m pretty sure that your wedding will be held next month. Because as I obeserved Auntie and Uncle wanted your wedding to be held as soon as possible." Aria said. "It''s just a simple and private wedding, no paparazzi or media will be there, and besides we don''t want to attract the attention of the Netizens and I must also keep this as a secret because it might be a big disaster for Mr. Salvador if the school would know that he''s married to one of his student, his career might be damage because of my carelessness. And of course you will be my maid of honor." Ayesha said while looking at Aria. "Didn''t you dream of having a grand wedding when we were still little?" Aria asked. "There''s no need for a grander wedding, this is just a marriage of alliance, we don''t love each other. I would probably have a grander wedding if I am married to the man I love but unfortunately he doesn''t even look at me." Ayesha added, she was referring to Calvin whom she ?ssumes that he might even not know that she exists but Ayesha was wrong how can no one know her, she was the famous goddess of Class 4-A. Everyone knew here and that includes Calvin who is intently admiring her from a far. "Well yeah you are somehow correct that this is just a marriage of alliance but what of one day you would fall for Mr. Salvador, let''s say who wouldn''t fall for him. He is just the guy that every woman dreamed of marrying, Yesha." Aria said while looking at Ayesha. "And that would be impossible Aria" Ayesha said in a monotone voice. She would never fall in love with that guy because she already have Calvin inside her heart. Aria just nodded at what Ayesha said because she already knew that her best friend would just swallow what she have said today. After a couple of minutes Aria''s car entered the massive gate and she then parked her car in their parking lot. They have already arrive at the Ventura Mansion. And as soon as Aria and Ayesha had step out from the car. Someone who came from the garden''s direction is already running towards their direction. "Baby Ayesha!" a man exclaimed as he was running towards Ayesha and already spreading his arms to hug her. Not even taking a glance at his sister. As the man was running, he looks like a prince and he was also surrounded by sparkles everywhere. Aria just rolled her eyes as she saw her brother approaching towards their direction. "He is very childish when Ayesha is around and when we are alone he is like a lion ready to devour his prey." Aria thought to herself while looking at her 20 years old brother who is very happy to see Ayesha. "Big Brother Kier I''ve missed you. You look really handosme now." Ayesha said as she hug Kier. Kier was still holding a shovel so he tossed it anywhere and hug Ayesha. "I''ve missed you too so so much Baby Yesha." Kier hugged Ayesha very tightly and give her a kiss on the forehead. Kier usually give kisses to Ayesha''s forehead when Ayesha would visit the Ventura Family Household five years ago. For Ayesha, she thought that Kier was just treating her as a little sister but for Kier it already have a different meaning. "Where is my present?" Ayesha asked immediately as soon as they got separated from hugging each other. "It''s in my room, come I''ll give it to you." Kier said as he dragged Jinyue inside their house. Aria was left dumbfounded as she just witness some one-sided sweet moment and her own brother didn''t even took a glance at her. She shook her head as she saw how bias her brother is. "Am I really his sister or is it Ayesha?" she thought to herself as she also walked inside their house. Ayesha was waiting in the living room for Kier while Aria went upstairs to change her dress. She wanted to wear something comfortable already. "Here is my present for you. Just open it when you reached your home" Kier handed a big paper bag to Ayesha. And as soon as Ayesha held it, "It''s heavy! Did you actually bought some gold bars for me?" she exclaimed and she looked at Kier and she asked out of curiousity, "Why is this heavy?" Kier just smiled at her, he actually have over bought so many gifts for Ayesha while he only give Aria some money. He''s really bias when in comes to treating Ayesha. Well she is the woman whom he had love for so long. "So how was New York Big Brother Kier? Did you enjoyed your stay there for Five years?" Ayesha asked Kier. "New York is fine, but I still prefer staying here if I have too. But I also don''t want to waste the opportunity of establishing and making my career bloom in New York." Kier said while pouring some jasmine tea on Ayesha''s tea cup. "Well you really did fulfill your dreams Big Brother Kier, you are now a famous model and you had also build your own modeling agency." Ayesha complimented Kier. "Did you find a girlfriend while staying their in New York Big Brother Kier?" she added. "Nah, I was so focused on my career and I don''t have anytime for relationship beside the girl I love is here not in New York." Kier said while looking at Ayesha. "Who might that unlucky girl be?" Ayesha teased Kier. "You know her very well and I will not tell who she is." Kier said with a determined voice. He will not spill the beans that the girl she like is the one in front of her. "Ayesha just stay here for lunch and dinner. Just call Auntie and Uncle and tell them that my parents have insisted in letting you stay for dinner because brother is now here." Aria suggested when she went close to Ayesha and her brother. "That''s a good idea, we have so many things to catch up." Kier instantly agree, well he would take any opportunity to let Ayesha stay for a while and have a talk with him. As soon as Ayesha was done speaking to her parents, they went to the garden to have some catch up. The garden was filled with laughter as Kier was narrating the funny things he had experienced while staying in New York. It was the best day for Kier because he actually got to see Ayesha''s smile again. Chapter 9 - Rooftop The sun is beaming and shining so bright as it reflects at the glass window and the fresh wind gently blew Ayesha''s curtains. She inhale the fresh air as she slowly opened her eyes. She slowly got up and tidied her bed, even though she came from a very wealthy family and she is the only sole heiress of the Gonzales family. Her mother still taught and told her that she should tidy up her own bed and she should not always rely on the servants. The Gonzales Family is not like the other prestigious family that would show of their wealth and power to everyone. The long lineage of the Gonzales Family once came from a very humble family before they acquired all their wealth and power today. And Mrs. Gonzales also came from a very humble family before Mr. Gonzales married her. After Ayesha tidied her bed, she then went to prepare herself for school. ---------- University When Ayesha arrived at the entrance of their school, all students where immediately staring and looking at her with eyes full of admiration . She didn''t mind them, she went straight to her classroom and look for Aria but to her surprise, Calvin was the one who is standing outside her classroom''s door. She was thinking that maybe the Supreme Student Council President is just waiting for someone so when she was about to enter her classroom she was startled to hear Calvin talking to her. "Ayesha can we talk later during lunch break? I''ll wait for you in the rooftop." Calvin said in a low voice that only Ayesha could hear and withput waiting for her reply, he immediately left. Ayesha was still standing at the same spot and she was still staring at the spot where Calvin was standing earlier. "Calvin finally talked to me! He actually noticed me, and he wanted to talk to me later during lunch time!" Ayesha was screaming at her head as she was feeling so giddy because of what happened. She can''t believe her long time crush had taken the initiative to talk to her. While Ayesha was spacing out, Aria have been looking at her best friend for almost 3 minutes. When she arrive at her classroom she saw Ayesha standing at the door and was looking at nowhere. "Ayesha? Hello earth to you" Aria called Ayesha but she didn''t recieve any reaction from her best friend. "AYESHA MYNE GONZALES WHY ARE STANDING AT THE DOOR AND SPACING OUT?" Aria shouted Ayesha''s fullname to get her attention. And she succeeded because Ayesha looked at her. "Aria!" Ayesha call Aria, she was still in daze. "He finally noticed me! He talked to me and he wanted me to meet him at the rooftop during lunchtime." Ayesha uttered happily. "Ah who''s He?" Aria was puzzled by how happy Ayesha is. She was like about to cry from happiness. "Calvin finally noticed me." Ayesha said in a low with a happy tone. "Oh that is why she is so happy" Aria thought to heself. "If Calvin would confess to her, then my brother loves her and she also have a handsome fiance. What the... I should cut my bestfriend''s hair, it''s already to long." Aria thought. How lucky of her bestfriend to have three handsome men. "Okay.. Okayy.. let''s get inside, our first subject is about to start and it will be english." Aria dragged the happy Ayesha to her seat. After a minute, Mr. Salvador arrive and he was greeted by his student except for Ayesha who was spacing out again. Knight looked at her, "She is blushing again and she is also spacing out, this girl really have the guts to space out during my class." he thought. So he called Ayesha''s attention, "Ms. Gonzales please read the poem in page 8 on your textbook." Ayesha didn''t heard him. "Ayesha Mr. Salvador is calling you." her classmate called her. Ayesha then came to her senses. "Oops I did it again." she thought and look at the man in front of him and stood up, "I''m sorry Mr. Salvador can you please repeat what you said?". Knight just looked at her, "If you are not interested in joining my class you are free to go out Ms. Gonzales." Knight said as he looked at Ayesha intently, he doesn''t want to do this to her but he can''t bear to see her spacing out while blushing, just thinking that she was blushing because of someone makes him so jealous. Ayesha just bowed her head and said sorry. Knight let her sit and he then proceeded in reading the poem with his american accent. As soon as their class was over, Knight asked Ayesha to see him in the faculty after her last subject this afternoon. "Ayesha why where you spacing out earlier?" Aris asked as soon as she reacher Ayesha''s table. "I was just thinking about what happened earlier near the door." She honestly told Aria. "You know it''s already lunch time, I was so hungry beacsue of our four hours class with Mr. Salvador." Aria said and took her lunch box out, her brother made her some lunch and also Ayesha. "Oh my Gosh, I need to go to the rooftop now maybe he is waiting for me there. I''ll just eat my lunch later." Ayesha said and rushed into the rooftop. When she arrived there she saw Calvin standing near the railings. "Sorry to made you wait." Ayesha said while catching her breath. "It is okay I just got here." Calvin said while looking at Ayesha who is still catching her breath. "What do want to talk about?" Ayesha asked first when she noticed that the atmosphere was really ackward. "I knew that you where there when the V.P of the student council confessed to me." Calvin said in a serious tone. "Ahh ehhh" Ayesha was shocked, she didn''t know what to say. "I''m....I''mreallysorryforeavesdroppingintoyourconversationIdidn''tmeantoIjustwantedtopassbybutthenyouwillnoticemesoIjusthidinthecornersothatIwon''tdisturbthetwoofyou." Ayesha explained really fast with out any spacing or pause in her words. Her heart is pounding really fast right now because of nervousness. Calvin looked at her with full of admiration and he suddenly laugh because of her fast explanation. "I really don''t mind that the girl I have been crushing on would hear someone confess to me." He said while smiling. Ayesha looked at him as her eyes widened, What did you just say?" she wanted some conformation if she heard it right. "I said, I really don''t mind if the girl I have been crushing on would hear someone confess to me." Calvin repeated. "You.. you have a crush on me?" Ayesha again confirmed. Calvin shyly nodded as he realized that he just confessed to Ayesha. Ayesha was so happy that she began to cry. "Hey why are you crying? Did I said something wrong? Calvin asked in panicked. Ayesha just shooked her head as she hug Calvin. The two of them stayed like that for a while, not knowing that some evil miasma is already surrounding someone''s body who could anytime kill someone because of jealousy. Chapter 10 - Marriage Registration Calvin and Ayesha were still hugging at the rooftop. Ayesha still can''t believe that the man she like also likes her back. "I thought you don''t want to engage yourself in any relationship. Why are you confessing to me now?" Ayesha asked as she remembered the day when the V.P Student Council confess to Calvin. "I just said that because I don''t want to tell her that I have already someone I like and I''m confessing to you know because I am so jealous during the first week of the new school year starts there where already so many students confessing and giving you so love letters." Calvin said while ??r?ssing Ayesha''s face. He had like this girl in front of him when he was still in first year. She was so kind to everyone and she doesn''t care about popularity, and she was also pure and simple. Ayesha was so happy about Calvin''s confession. "Would you like go on a date with me?" Calvin asked her. Ayesha smiled and said yes. Both of them went back together to Ayesha''s classroom. Many students were shocked and they started gossiping when they saw Ayesha and Calvin who were holding each other''s hands. "Why are they together? And they both came from the rooftop." one student said while looking at Ayesha and Calvin. "Are they dating?" one student asked. "I saw Senior Calvin went to the rooftop earlier." a student said to the other. "I also saw Senior Ayesha ran towrds the rooftop. She was likely in a hurry." another student said. "Our Senior Goddess is already taken but I am still happy for her even if I don''t have any chance." one guy said. "You really don''t have any chance from the beginning" his friend teased himand the students laughed. Other students where quite happy for their Senior Goddess and Senior President. They didn''t imagine that the two of them would click with each other. While the others were happy, one of the student was jealous. "That bitch really wanted to compete with me." Sabrina said when she saw that Ayesha was so happy holding Calvin''s hand. "I should be the one who is beside Calvin not her." she thought while fumming with anger. The Vice President of the Student Council also saw the seen, she was jealous and at the same time sad because she knew that she had already been turned down by Calvin and she would also not cause any scene that could make Calvin hate her more. "Hey don''t forget about our date okay." Calvin said as soon as they arrive at Ayesha''s classroom. Ayesha nodded and Calvin gave her a kiss on the cheeks before he went to his own classroom. Ayesha''s classmates were shocked from what they saw. "Wooooaahhhhh Ayesha are you in a relationship with the Student Council President?" one of her classmate asked. "No we''re just friends." She said while waving her hand in the air. "Don''t lie Ayesha, I heard him said that you should not forget about your date, when I passed by at your back." a girl said while eyeing her suspeciously. "Uhmm.. we''re not yet in an official relationship." Ayesha shyly said while playing her fingers and hurriedly went back to her seat. "Did he confessed?" Aria asked in a low voice. Ayesha nodded as she blushed. "Finally.. that coward finally confessed what he truly feels for you." Aria said out of no where. "What do you mean?" Ayesha asked. "Well yah know when you are not looking at him, he would take some glances at you." Aria said as she remembers how Calvin would look at her best friend everytime they would be in the same place. Just like when they went to the restaurant, Calvin was looking at Ayesha intently and his eyes were full of admiration. "So you knew" Ayesha asked Aria again. "Ahhh hehehehe." Aria just smile at her while slowly going back to her seat. While Ayesha was feeling happy and giddy in her classroom, someone in the teacher''s faculty room wanted to murder someone. Knight saw what happened in the roofto, he followed Ayesha and he was surprised to see and hear how that Calvin Guy confessed and how happy Ayesha was. He knew that he needed to do something so that Ayesha and Calvin won''t see each other anymore. Ayesha is his fiance and she will be the mother of his children in the future, so he will do anything in order for that Calvin guy to stop pestering his beloved. He will make sure that the wedding would be held as soon as possible, it may be a selfish request but it is the only thing he could do so that she could keep Ayesha for himself. Knight''s phone rang and he answered it quickly when he saw that it was his mother. "Hello Mom!" he said while playing the pencil at his hand. "Hello son, don''t forget that today you and Ayesha needs to register your marriage." his mother remainded him. "Yes mom, I will inform her later after her last class will end." Knight said and he hung up the call. He then thought of a plan to separate Ayesha and Calvin from seeing each other. -------- After the Ayesha''s last class he went to the faculty room when she remebered that Mr. Salvador asked her to see him. She knock ay the teacher''s faculty door and she opened the door. And she saw one teacher. "Yes may I help you Miss?" the teacher who tried to seduce Knight but didn''t succeed asked. "Is Mr. Salvador here?" Ayesha asked politely. "Yes he is, his staying at the last cubicle near the window." the teacher answered Ayesha and she left. Ayesha went to Knight''s cubicle. "Hello Mr. Salvador?" Ayesha called out. Knight looked at Ayesha, "Oh you are her Ayesha." Knight smiled. He stood up and walked towards Ayesha. "I just wanted to tell you that we need to register our marriage." he s?xily whispered into Ayesha ear, which made her shiver. "Oh.. Oh ri..right we will get it today. I''ll ju..just wait for you at the Registration Office. If that''s all Mr. Salvador, I.. I''ll take my leave now." Ayesha said as she keeps on stuttering. Knight looked at her, she was so closed to him right now and he could clearly see her beautiful face. "I love you" Knight suddenly said and it made Ayesha froze. Knight also realize what he said and he composed himself and told Ayesha that there is nothing more he wanted to say. Ayesha then bowed and quickly made herself out from the teacher''s faculty office. Knight on the other hand was smiling to himself. He just blurted out the words that he wanted to say to her for so long. Chapter 11 - Contract Ayesha arrive at the Registration office earlier than Knight who is still on his way. He was preparing something that might make Ayesha happy. Once he arrive at the Registration office they immediately proceeded with the registration, they give their requirements and after a couple of minutes they were done. "Let'' have a dinner first, I have something to discuss with you." Knight said while facing Ayesha, who on the other hand cannot directly look at his face because she could still remember what he said in the faculty room, she thought that even though she was not the girl whom Knight was thinking while saying those three magic words, she still felt a little bit giddy. Like who wouldn''t? Knight is also handsome, every girl would feel giddy when they would hear him say "I Love You". Ayesha is just like those teenage girl but she would just control her feelings, except when Aria is the only one who is with her. Ayesha just nodded and went inside Knight''s car. She could smell the Orange Flavor scent from Knight''s car. It made her feel relaxed because she also likes the scent of oranges. Ayesha looked at Knight who is busy reading some papers. She find him very mysterious and quite familiar. "Where do you want to eat?" Knight asked her when he felt that she was staring at her. Ayesha turned her gaze outside when Knight spoke. She could actually stare at him if she want, he won''t mind at all. "You decide Mr. Salvador." Ayesha said without looking at Knight. "You can call me Liwei when we are alone together." Knight suggested. She would often call him Liwei in the past. "Liwie." Ayesha in a low voice uttered out of know where and then a flash of memories came that made her head ache for a couple of seconds. "Brother Liwei come with me." a boy was running towards the direction of little Ayesha. Ayesha just closed her eyes and waited for the pain to be subdue. She was quite having some head aches this past few days. "Let''s just eat at the Royal Restaurant." Knight suggested because it was Ayesha''s favorite restaurant. Ayesha just nodded. When they arrive they were greeted by a waiter and they were lead into a private V.I.P room. "Let''s order first so that while we are waiting for our food, I could talk to you about some important things." Knight suggested and gave Ayesha the menu. Ayesha ordered her other favorite food which is beef stake and a special chocolate cake for dessert. Knight ordered a beef stake also and some wine. After they had said their order, Ayesha was asked Knight, "What is the important thing you wanted to say to me?" Ayesha was looking at Knight. Knight laid a brown envelope infront of Ayesha. "Open it." he said to her. Ayesha pick the envelope and opened it, and saw a piece of paper that has a Bold Arial Font printed on the upper portion that says "CONTRACT". "What is this?" Ayesha said as she was looking at Knight, her eyes full o f confusion. "I saw you with that Calvin guy in the rooftop." Knight honestly said. Ayesha was taken a back at what Knight said. "Why didn''t you tell your parents that you have someone that you like?" Knight asked her. "Even if I would tell my parents that I like someone, I still cannot be with him. Yes! Both my parents would support.my decision but my Grandpa will not agree because he would just say that I am his only grandchild and that he would make sure that he would find the right and suitable man for me and he would not also break his promise to your Grandmother, Grandfather is a man who would really stick to his words. And also I made a promise with someone that I would always follow my parents decision for me because they knew what''s right for me. I don''t want to break that promise because I don''t want him to be disappointed at me" Ayesha said in a low voice. She also new that her parents would support her but her promise to someone and her Grandfather is the one holding her. They were like chains to her, as an obedient and honest child she would keep her promise and obey her Grandfather''s orders. Knight was just looking at her. He knew how obedient she is when she was still a little girl. "You may read the contract" Knight just said. Ayesha read the contract that has only two rule in it. 1. You may date the person you like as long as he will not hurt you while you are still dating. 2. You can have your freedom for a month. You can do what ever you want while you are not yet tied with me for the rest of your life. This contract will be valid for one month. And there at the bottom was Knight''s Signature. This contract exist only for Ayesha, she can only benefit from it. Ayesha looked at Knight, "Do you really want me to date him?" Ayesha asked. "Yes! I want you to have your freedom" Knight said. "And besides we don''t really love each other." he added. And as he said those words, his heart hurt so much. "This is only a one sided love anyway" he thought. He could endure the pain because in the end he will still feel the happiness he wanted. "Thank You Brother Liwei" Ayesha said happily. Then their order came and they eat happily. The atmosphere of the two was really peaceful. Chapter 12 - Date Knight sent Ayesha home as soon as they were done having their dinner. "Thank you for sending me home brother Knight". Ayesha said as she got off from Knight''s car. "You are very welcome Ayesha." Knight said and revive his car''s engine. She then bid farewell while looking at Knight''s car fading from her view. Then she went inside their house and went straight to her room after greeting her parents. She is excited for tomorrow because she will have her first date with Calvin. -------- Ayesha woke up a little bit early than her usual wake up routine. She is just a little to excited that she had a hard time sleeping. As she went downstairs after changing into her school uniform, she saw her parents eating breakfast. "Good Morning Mother, Good Morning father." She greeted them and gave them both some morning kiss on the cheeks. "Morning to baby. You look so happy today." Her father greeted her. "I just felt happy today."she said while putting some pancakes on her plate and she start digging her food. She was happy because today is her date with Calvin plus Knight gave her permission to date him. But she doesn''t know that there is something big will happen and it is just waiting for her. After she had finished her breakfast she bid her parents goodbye and off she went to school. -------- University Ayesha went straight to her classroom as soon as she arrived at the university. There she saw Calvin who was waiting for her at the door. "Hey what are you doing her?" she casually asked to him. "I am actually waiting for you. Uhmm.. don''t forget our date later after your last period this morning." Calvin said as he handed a bouquet of red rose to Ayesha. Ayesha''s face instantly became red as she receives the beautiful flowers. Students who saw the scene were teasing them and even the students who are passing by had stopped to also see what is happening, and even Ayesha''s classmate who are pretty early had also began teasing them. Ayesha can''t help herself from blushing. "Thank you for this beautiful flowers. Uhmm. I''ll just go to the Student Council office later after my last period class so that we could go together." Ayesha suggested but Calvin said that he would fetch in the classroom. Ayesha just nodded and Calvin bis his goodbye. Ayesha was teased again by her classmates and even Aria who was also quite a bit early teased her. "Ah yah you can finally experience your first date." she said teasingly to Ayesha. Ayesha just smacked her best friends shoulder. She already had enough of the teasing, she can''t bear how hot and red her face is. In the the little corner outside Ayesha''s classroom, someone is watching her. "You can act happily today because later you will feel the pain that I would cause to you." that person thought and walked away from Ayesha''s classroom. --------- After Ayesha''s last subject in the morning Calvin was already waiting outside for her. Ayesha bid goodbye to Aria and she went to Calvin''s side and said, "Where are we going today?" she asked while they were walking towards the school''s exit. "It''s a surprise." Calvin said and opened his car''s door for Ayesha. Ayesha just went inside without asking Calvin anymore, she doesn''t want to ruin his surprise for her. After a couple of minutes, Calvin gave Ayesha a piece of cloth. "Cover your eyes because we will arrive now at the place where will have our date." he said as he handed it to Ayesha. She took it and covered her eyes witout saying anything. Calvin took her hand and ?ssisted her in going down as soon as they arrive at the place. He also took the piece of cloth that covers Ayesha''s eyes. "You may now open your eyes." He instructed. Ayesha opened her eyes and she glance at the place after she had adjusted her eyesight. "We are at the Amusement Park?" she happily exclaimed, the last time she went here was when she was twelve years old and he was with him and before that incident happened. "I booked the whole Amusement Park." Calvin said. "Do you like it?" he added. "I love it." Ayesha happily said and drag Calvin towards the rides. They first ride the carousel, they have tried so many rides and lastly they rode the Ferris Wheel after they were done experiencing all the ride they decided to eat some cotton candy and ice cream. While they were eating, Calvin spoke. "Ayesha I just wanted to tell you that since first year, I have like you and now this feelings that I have felt for you have already turned into love. I already love you Ayesh, just by looking at you from a far. I have fallen in love with you." He said while looking at the frozen Ayesha. "Maybe this is to early to ask but I just wanted to aske you if you also love me." he added. Ayesha just looked at him. She didn''t reply because she was still in shocked. "Well I can understand if you can''t answer my question." Calvin stood up but Ayesha drag his sleeves. "I... I also love you. I have love you for so long Calvin." she shyly replied. Calvin just looked at her. "Well well well good job Calvin. You won at our bet." A girl appeared from nowhere. She went to Calvin''s side and she place her both hands at his waist. "You made our dear Senior Goddess said that three special words. I knew it she really have some feelings for you." Sabrina said. Ayesha stood up and she looked at Calvin, "What''s the meaning of this? And what bet is she talking about?" She said calmly. "Oh sorry dear Ayesha, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Sabrina, your mortal enemy since Nursery days and this guy right beside me is my one and only fiance. We were just having some fun and we decided that you will also take part in this fun. I made a bet with him, that if he could make our dear Senior Goddess which is you Ayesha, say the three magic words. I would give him the most special things that he wants. And because you said that three words, he won our bet. Thank you because of you he could get what he want." Sabrina said and she looked at Ayesha''s pretty face and suddenly slapped it. "I really wanted to do that with you." she added. Ayesha just looked at her with a calm expression. She stepped forward closing her distance with Sabrina, and she slapped her twice. Calvin pushed Ayesha aside, "What right do you have to slap her." Calvin said in an angry tone. "I will never ever fall in love with you. All of those sweet things I have shown to you were all just an act. Thanks to you I could get what I want." he said. Ayesha just stared at the two people in front of her. She was calm as the sea on the outside but she was ranging in the inside. She badly wanted to hurt this two infront of her but that is not the person she was but she could ask someone''s help to destroy this two or maybe she could play with them first. She had just slapped Sabrina because she was slapped first. "I see so you two had a bet. Did you enjoy it? Because if not I wanted you to participate in my own game. It will be a surprise so be prepared" She said calmly and left the two alone. They should be prepared for she will double the pain they have made her feel. She was so broken in the inside. Chapter 13 - Back her up Ayesha went home with her heart torn into pieces, she can''t believe that she was so naive and she loved the wrong person. She went inside her room as soon as she arrive, and there she saw her best friend, Aria who was waiting for her at her bedroom. She went to her and cried. "What happened? Was Calvin''s surprise so amazing that you- that it made you cried." Aria said teasingly. Yes! His surprise was so surprising that it cause my heart to be broken into pieces. "Aria, I was so stupid. I actually believed that he also love me" she cried at Aria''s shoulder. Aria consoled her, "Shhhh! What happened you can tell me." She made Ayesha face her and wiped her tears. "He.. he was just using me. He made a bet..bet with his fiance, her name was Sabrina. And she also slapped me" As soon as Aria heared Sabrina''s name, she went into rage. "WHAT? THAT BITCH ACTUALLY SLAPPED YOU?" she said loudly and looked at Ayesha. And she then notices Ayesha''s right face, it was indeed a little bit swelling. "AND THAT BASTARD CALVIN WAS HIS FIANCE? I THOUGHT HE REALLY LIKES YOU BUT IT WAS ALL JUST AN ACT. HOW STUPID OF ME NOT NOTICING IT. AND THAT BITCH SHE ACTUALLY DARES TO HURT YOU." she added. She was in rage because her precious best friend was hurt because of that two cunning people. "You know Sabrina?" Ayesha asked while wiping the tears in her eyes. Aria is calm now but she is still mad on the inside. "Yes, she was the one who thinks of you as her rival but you on the other hand don''t give your precious attention to her. I always saw her getting mad when ever you would won the first place in any competition held in our school and I also heard a rumor that she thinks of you as her mortal enemy and that she wanted to destroy your image in our school. Just thinking of her face wanted me to punch her and slammed her to the wall." Aria explained and look at Ayesha calm face now. Ayesha just laughed at how Aria reacted. This best friend of her is a truly an amazon when she is mad but a cute little girl when she is not. "Ayesha are you planning something?" Aria asked Ayesha as soon as she saw how calm her face was. She very well knew that look and aura. Ayesha just smiled, "Nah I will not do anything to them but I will ask someone to do it for me." she said. Aria just wished Sabrina and Calvin''s family some goodluck and godbless. "Are you gonna sleep her?" Ayesha asked Aria. "Yeah! I''m gonna accompany you cause you just had experience your first heart break and I''m afraid that you would snatch some alcoholic beverage from your father''s collection and drown your self from drinking." Aria said in a monotone voice. "Ha ha ha very funny, I''m not that stupid to cry all night while drinking just because I was heart broken. I realized that he didn''t actually deserve my love and tears. I''ll was up first then let''s go to the dining area to have dinner." Aria just nodded and let Ayesha do her thing. "Mr. Knight you are correct, Ayesha was really used by Calvin and she would ask someone to do something to Calvin and to his fiance, Sabrina. And that Sabrina also slapped her in the right cheek. Can you back her up Mr. Salvador please? She was really hurt from what happened." Aria texted Knight as soon as Ayesha went inside the bathroom. Knight informed her that something might have happened to Ayesha after her date so Aria went to Ayesha''s house and waited for her to come home. Knight read Aria''s message and clenched his fist. His beloved Ayesha was actually hurt because of that bastard Calvin guy. He knew about Calvin''s plan because he accidentally heard it at the parking lot on the day that he and Ayesha would have their marriage registration, but he didn''t do anything to prevent it, he was just waiting for the right moment so that he could make him pay. And he will make sure that Calvin and Sabrina''s family would suffer. They dare to touch his future wife. "No need to ask for my back up cause I will always back her up no matter what happened." he replied to Aria''s message. When Aria saw his message, she smiled, how lucky her best friend is to have Mr. Salvador as her fiance. "Why are you smiling." Ayesha asked Aria suspiciously when she got out from the bathroom and saw her best friend smiling like a crazy person. "Oh nothing I have just read something very very sweet that it made my heart flutter and myself giddy." Aria said while keeping her phone at her bag. "Let''s go downstairs and have our dinner." Ayesha suggested. "Hey Ayesha I am just curious, who is the person that you will ask for help to get back on Calvin and Sabrina." Aria asked as they made their way to the dinning hall. "Just someone who gave me a good contract but now I cannot use it." Ayesha said casually and Aria was puzzled yet she didn''t further asked who. --------- At Knight''s Apartment After he had sent his message to Aria he called his own secretary. "Hello boss? Finally are you going back to the office tomorrow?" his trusted secretary directly asked. "No! I just want you to have a full investigation on Calvin and Sabrina as soon as possible. They dare to touch your future Madam Boss, I need to be prepared because I have a feeling that she would ask for my help." he said and ended the call. His poor secretary was cursing inside, his boss actually have no mercy in him, but still he would do what his boss have asked because he would also get some good benefit from it. Chapter 14 - Say please "Ayesha wake up, we still need to go to school." Aria said as she was trying to wake her best friend up. She was trying to wake her up for a couple of minutes already. "Hmmm five more minutes, his gonna kiss me now." Ayesha said while her eyes are still shut closed. Aria was shocked by what her best friend said. The heck, she is dreaming that someone is going to kiss her. Is this the after effect of being broken-hearted. Aria got a pillow and smacked Ayesha''s back. "YOUNG MISS YOU NEED TO WAKE UP NOW. CHOOSE, ARE YOU GONNA LET WHO EVER THAT MAN IS GONNA KISS YOU OR PREPARE FOR SCHOOL CAUSE WE ARE RUNNING PRETTY LATE NOW YOU KNOW." she shouted at Ayesha''s ears. Ayesha immediately stood up and rush to her bathroom, she peaked at her bathroom''s door and shouted at Aria, "THE MAN WAS FACELESS AND MY EAR HURTS." and she closed the door and do her thing. Aria just rolled her eyes, got her backpack and went downstairs to have some breakfast. She saw Ayesha''s parents having their breakfast, "Good Morning Auntie, Uncle" she greeted them and sat at her usual place. "Good Morning too Aria. Did you sleep well? And where is Ayesha?" Ayesha''s mom asked. "She''s still having her moment in the bathroom and yes I slept well Auntie, thank you for asking." Aria replied while placing some food. "Aria how was your father? We haven''t seen each other for a long time." Ayesha''s father asked. "Well he is doing well Uncle. He is so busy with our family business and he is often out of the country." Aria replied. "I''ll just tell him that you asked if how is he doing and ask him to visit you, so you two could have some bonding and I''ll also ask mom to visit you Auntie." she added while looking at the two elders in front of her. Ayesha came and sat at her usual seat. "Oh thank you Aria." Mrs. Gonzales said. "You two should eat up now, you still need to go to school. I and you uncle needs to get going now. We have so much things to do in the office. Goodbye girls enjoy your breakfast." she added and the two elders made there way to the car. "I thought we are running late but when I look at the clock it is still early, you little elf trick me." Ayesha said while looking at Aria. "Well my trick was a success though, I got to wake you up from you dream land." Aria said while slicing the pancakes and shoving it into her mouth. She munch her food before talking again, "You were practically sleep talking saying that the guy in your dreams was about to kiss you." she added while giggling. "Shut it." Ayesha shove some egg on Aria''s mouth. She couldn''t believe that she had said those words, she can''t really remember the guy because its faceless but the his body built looks familiar to her. "Ayesha, do you still dream about yhe accident that happened when you were very young?" Aria asked in a serious tone. "No." Ayesha immediately denied. She can''t tell Aria that she oftens dream of that accident. And she even would see some flashes of memories that could make her head ache so much. Aria just nodded, she doesn''t believe her because she actually witness it last night. The way her best friend screams and she could see the agony in her face. "Finish your food we are now going to school." She said to Ayesha as she drinks her milk. ----- There was a commotion in the school''s bulletin board. Students were flocking and wanted to see what is the big news all about. As soon as Ayesha and Aria arrive at school, the students who already saw the news where looking at Ayesha. "I cannot believe that she would actually slap someone." one student said. "She is the bitch here, trying to steal someone who already have a fiance." someone said. "Hey she didn''t know that Calvin have already a fiance." another student said. There were many students who hated her and there are also students who believe that she didn''t want to steal someone else''s faimce and they protected her from all the negative and harsh words from the other students. Ayesha just listen to the words of this students as they made there way to the bulletin board to see the news. And there were pieces of paper and typed in a bold letters that says: "YOUR SENIOR GODDESS AYESHA IS NOT ACTUALLY GOOD, SHE SLAPPED CALVIN''S REAL FIANCE" And there was a picture in it where Ayesha slapped Sabrina. Aria tore all the paper and Ayesha didn''t said anything, she just calmly made her way to her classroom not minding all those eyes who were watching her. The day went peaceful for Ayesha despite the commotion happened earlier. She didn''t mind it because she knew the truth. After her last period she went into the teacher''s faculty room, she knocked at the door and entered and she saw Knight left all alone. "Brother Liwei, I need you help." she said. "And what can I do for you young Ms. Gonzales." Knight said playfully. "I need you to take back the effectiveness of the contract, I don''t need it anymore and one more thing I need you to get back to Calvin and Sabrina, your little fiance was hurt because of them." Ayesha said cutely. Knight can''t believe what he is seeing right in front of him. He thinks that he might do something to this little creature in front of him. He seriously look at her, trying to hide something from Ayesha. "Say please and I''ll do what you said." He said while looking at her seriously. "Please Brother Liwei, give justice to you little fiance. I was bullied and my reputation is being destroyed, it''s not that I care about it but I have to hold unto my ego so pretty please help me." She said cutely and Knight was completely speechless. This little girl knows how to act. He drag her into his cubicle and without a second thought claimed her lips. Ayesha was taken a back by what he did and suddenly pushed him. "You.. you.." she didn''t know what to say, so she just run off away from Knight. Knight on the other hand, hold his own lips and thought, "She actually have a soft and sweet lips, I''ll have to taste them again." he smiled and got his phone. "Send me the file of your investigation now. My little fiance asked my helped." He sent the text to his secretary. Knight again watched the faculty''s door where Ayesha went out. Chapter 15 - Dare to touch her Ayesha was panting while holding her ?h?st. Her heart was beating really fast not because from running but because of what Knight did to her. "That old man dare to kiss me." She thought while holding her lips and remembering what happened in the faculty room. Her face became really hot and red that it looks like she was sick from having a high fever. "Ayesha are you alright? Why are you sweating and your face is so red. Are you having a fever?" Aria asked while touching Ayesha''s forehead. "No.. no.. I.. I''m actually and perfectly fine. I was just uhmm I.. just run because.. Uhmm I.. Uhmm." Ayesha don''t know what to say to Aria. She can''t just blurt out that Mr. Salvador kissed her. "I just run from the cafeteria to here cause I thought that the class is starting." she was hoping that her alibi would be a success but Aria didn''t believe her. "I saw you went to the teacher''s faculty room. What did Mr. Salvador do to you?" Aria said in a low voice. Ayesha gulped her own saliva as she looked at Aria''s questioning and curiouse face. "He just.. He just kissed me on the lips." Ayesha said shyly to Aria. "He did WHAT?" Aria said shockingly. Omaygod Mr. Salvador is doing a great job in making her best friend fall for him. Aria just remembered who Knight was, he was that boy who was always staying at the Gonzales Mansion when she and Ayesha were just eleven years old. She already knew that Knight had feelings for Ayesha and she didn''t expect that until now he will have the same feeling he had in the past. Ayesha just nodded and blushed. She will definitely have her revenge on that old man. That was her fisrt kiss for goodness sake. While Ayesha was still graving about her first kiss that was stolen. Knight is in a very good mood and his secretary came into the faculty room. "Hello good morning is Mr. Salvador around." he heard his secretary''s voice and went out from his cubicle. "You are here, follow me." He said to him and they went inside his cubicle. Standing in front of Knight is Louise Michaelle Severin he is Knight''s most trusted secretary and he is also like and older brother to Knight. "Boss!" his secretary exclaimed as soon as he saw Knight, he is on the verge of crying while looking at Knight. "When will you comeback to the office boss?" he added. Knight just looked at him and plainly said, "I trust your capabilities Louise." His secretary was dumbfounded while looking at the thumbs up his boss gave to him. What do he expect from his childish boss. "Where are the files that I needed?" Knight asked his secretary while playing at his pencil. "Here boss. I have done everything what you told me." His secretary handed him a brown envelope. "Ok you may leave now, I trust the company in your hands. And you can also go to parties whenever you want." Knight said as he pushed his secretary out from his cubicle. His secretary just left with all the worries that the CEO should have. Knight took the envelope and opened it. He started reading the concise and short written report of his secretary''s investigation about Calvin and Sabrina. He choose to read Calvin''s Profile first. Name: Calvin Sebastian Buenavista Course: Business Management Information: He is currently the President of the Supreme Student Council, he is quite excellent in his studies and also quite popular to some girls. The only son of Mr. and Mrs. Buenavista, they also own some businesses around the country. Calvin was a known playboy outside the campus and he is trying to hide that, in short he is a two face person. He is engage to Sabrina Montel and it was supposed to be a secret. He also manages some illegal businesses without his parents knowing. "So this Calvin guy have some dirty little secrets hidden in is sleeves" Knight thought and after Knight was done reading Calvin''s profile he then move to Sabrina''s Profile. Name: Sabrina Cassandra Montel Age: Nineteen years old Course: Business Management Information: She consider herself as Ayesha Gonzales''s rival and mortal enemy since she was still in her nursery years. She is also the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Montel who where also stockholders in one of the K.L company. She was raised by her parents as a spoiled and bratty child. She is quite an attention seeker and she looks down on people who don''t have an equal status with her. She also loves to go to some nights clubs and engage herself in some illegal drugs. Knight was amazed by his secretary''s abilities, he had manage to get his hands into the hidden little dirty secrets of this two wolves As soon as Knight was done in reading all the files, he again called his secretary who was busy finalizing all the important contracts that needed Knight''s approval and signature. "Hello Louise, find a way to bring the Buenavista and Montel family''s company to the brink of bankruptcy, I don''t care what method you used as long as I would be satisfied to the result and also I want you to kidnap Calvin and Sabrina and bring them to the old warehouse. I would personally teach them some lesson. And also prepare all the files that consists all Calvin''s illegal transaction, I could use that to make him." He said in a serious tone and ended the call. "They will surely pay hundred times of what they did to Ayesha. They have dared to touch and hurt her." Knight thought and looked at the photo that was hidden in his drawer to calm himself. It was a photo that consists of three people, Him, Ayesha and the person they both love and treasure. Ayesha on the other hand just wanted to double the pain she had felt because of the two but the person she asked for help wanted it hundred times. Chapter 16 - Went over board That night the news of the Buenavista and Montel Family''s bankruptcy is spreading like a wild fire in their city. "Who on earth would do this to them? Even if we are not that close to both families but I still pity them because we are just in the same corporate world." Ayesha''s mother said as she watch the news on the television. "Maybe they have offended someone really really powerful." Ayesha''s father said. Ayesha was also there listening to her parents, who on earth would do this kind of thing to Calvin and Sabrina''s family. She don''t want to think of Knight because as she know that he won''t go over board in taking revenge for her and beside even if there family is powerful he can''t just easily do this to two families in one night. Ayesha didn''t know that Knight is already an owner of a multibillion company, he built it with his own money and blood, sweat and tears at the age of twenty without asking for his parents help. And at that same night, Louise have already informed Knight that Calvin and Sabrina were already placed in the old warehouse. Knight wanted to bring Ayesha to the warehouse to get her revenge but he thought that maybe he would go a little bit over board so he decided not to bring her. He would just deal this with his own. He arrive at the old warehouse and he can already hear the commotion inside. "Let us go." Sabrina shouted at Knight''s men. "Hmmm go? And why would we do that?" Knight asked as soon as he arrive at where Calvin and Sabrina were seated and both hands and feet were tied. "Aren''t you Mr. Salvador, the new english teacher? You are just a mere teacher, you will go to jail if our parents will find us here." Sabrina shouted. "Aren''t we fiesty little one. Your parents are facing a big problem now they don''t have anytime looking for the both of you." Louise said as he faced his ??ptop to let Sabrina and Calvin watch what is going on in the news. Calvin looked at Knight and he realize something, "You are not just a mere teacher. You are Knight Liwie Salvador the owner of the K.L Conglomerate and the youngest CEO who build his own empire. You are very mysterious to the other company owners because you keep a low profile. Did you do that to our parents?" Calvin said, his voice is shaking. "Oh Ho someone knew the true me. And yes I did that to teach both of you some lesson but I think I went a little bit over board" Knight said and looked at Calvin. "A little bit over board?" Sabrina asked. "YOU LITERALLY WENT OVER BOARD. IT IS NOT JUST A LITTLE BIT." she added while shouting at the top of her lungs. "SHUT UP SABRINA" Calvin shouted at her. Sabrina flinched because of Calvin''s shout. "Mr. Salvador we don''t remember offending." Calvin said while looking at Knight. "Ah yes yes you didn''t do anything to me but to the person I love and cherish the most, you did something to her, to my fiance." Knight said and looked at Sabrina, his eyes looks like an eyes of a lion who is ready to kill his prey. "But I would like to say thank you because of what you did she asked my help and I was also rewarded." he added. "Who is she? We would like to say sorry to her." Calvin said. "Sorry? No no your sorry can''t do anything. You know what you did to her? YOU FREAKING USED HER, YOU MADE A BET WITH YOUR LITTLE BITCH FIANCE WHO SLAPPED MY FIANCE AND YOU.. YOU BROKE HER HEART INTO PIECES." Knight shouted at Calvin, he was so furious and wanted to kill this man in front of him but he is restraining himself. "Ayesha is your fiance?" fear is visible in Calvin''s face as if he had just saw a devil in front of him. "Yes! She is and I''m here to do her a little favor." Knight said and punched Calvin''s face. Sabrina shouted but she immediately when Knight looked at her. "Untie him and hold him properly." Knight said at his subordinate as he took of his jacket. He gave another punch to Calvin, "I really wanted to do this to you." And punch Calvin. Calvin spit some blood and his face is already swollen from Knight''s strong punches. "Let go of him." he said and face Sabrina who is now begging him. "Please Mr. Salvador spare my life, I''m sorry for hurting Ayesha. I''m already repenting on what I''ve done to her." but Knight didn''t listen to her. "Which hand did you use to slap her? And which side of her face did you slap her?" Knight asked her. "The..the ri...right hand and le..left che...cheek" Sabrina was stuttering and sobbing. She was taken a back when Knight slapped her so hard for so many times, her left cheek became swollen and it was turning grayish green. "I should have cut off your right hand but I won''t go to far. I''m still lenient to the both of you." He said and walk towards his secretary. "Expose Calvin''s and Sabrina''s dirty little secret." he said and made his way out of the old warehouse, his body is exhausted from punching Calvin''s hard face. "Boss is this what you called leniency." his secretary thought as he watched his boss''s figure disappear from his eye sight. Chapter 17 - Truth, Scandal and Sorry Ayesha and Aria were a little bit startled by the group of students who were waiting for Ayesha''s arrival. "Senior Ayesha we are very sorry for doubting you. You are not the bad guy about what happened last time. We already now the truth, we were also a victim of there schemes and good thing you slap that Bitch Sabrina." the group of students said as they were asking for Ayesha''s forgiveness. "You must remember not to believe in any rumor without knowing the whole story because you might not know that you are already hurting the person being accused." Ayesha said and forgave them. "We are very very sorry Senior Ayesha and Thank you, you are really kind." they said and many students who have wrongly accused her started saying there sorry''s to her. And she forgave them all. The other students were also busy chatting about something. "I didn''t imagine that he have those kinds of secrets. I really look up to him." a student said. "I know right, I really couldn''t believe that he have those scandals." another student said. Aria was curiouse about what they were talking about so she asked one student. "Hey excuse me, why are all student seems busy talking about something. Is there a big news happening at our school?" Aria approached a student and asked her. "Oh Good Morning Senior Aria. We were just talking about what happened to the ex-president of the Student Council." she answered Aria. "Ex-President of the Student Council?" Ayesha asked with a curious expression. "His little dirty secrets were exposed last night and the school president expelled him from our school. Also his fiance was expelled because of the same reason." the same student answered Ayesha. "They didn''t even come to school today. Maybe due to embarrasement" another student said. "Misuse of power could really harm you." a student commented. "Ok thank you for the information." Aria said and dragged Ayesha towards there room. Ayesha on the other hand was spacing again, she was thinking of Knight, "Did he do this?" she thought. "AYESHA LOOK." she was back from her senses when Aria shouted at her while pointing at her table, she could see a bouquet of blue rose and a box. "I knew it there is a surprise waiting for you here at our classroom." Aria commented while grinning at Ayesha. Ayesha took the bouquet of rose and saw a small card in it. Ayesha silently read the written letter in the small card. "I hope you like it. I''ll make you fall in love with me. Have a great day baby." -L Ayesha smiled and she again could feel the pricking sensation on her stomach. It''s tickling her. "Lemme see!" Aria was trying to snatch the small card but Ayesha was to fast in keeping it. "Personal, Privacy, Please" Ayesha said and Aria just rolled her eyes and pouted. Ayesha then took the small box and opened it. It was a Silver Angel Wing Necklace, the Angel wing was crafted perfectly and was designed with smaller gem stones and diamonds. Under the box was another small card. Ayesha opened and read it. "I will become your shield and I will always protect you. I hope you love it baby." -L "Psh! Someone''s giddy." Aria teased her. "How can you be so lucky finding a man like him, I hope I can also find a man like him, Mr. Salvador." Aria said in a low voice. She is just being careful not to be heard by there classmate who were know watching them because of Ayesha''s gifts. "Hey! hey! Class is about to start, go back to your seat." Ayesha pushed Aria towards hers seat. "Good Morning class" Mr. Salvador greeted them as soon as he arrive in front. He took a glance at Ayesha and he then started his discussion. All he did was to lecture them on how to have a good writing skills. After their four hours class in English, Ayesha was about to go out when she was stopped by two people, they were wearing some mask and wayfarer sunglasses. Even though they are in disguise, Ayesha could still recognize them. She just stood in her place and watched the two people who were blocking her way. "Ayesha." Sabrina called Ayesha''s name. She and Calvin went down to their feet. They kneel down in front of Ayesha will asking for forgiveness. "Ayesha we are very very sorry about what we did to you. Can you please tell you fiance to be lenient in punishing us? We have already feel how to be embarrased and be roasted by the people around us and even in the news." Sabrina said as she sobbed. "Ayesha please forgive us, we have already repented from what we have done to you. Please ask your fiance to help bring our parents company." Calvin asked as his voice cracked. "I have already forgave the two of you. And I also asked him to give back to your families there businesses because they are not supposed to be included in this play but I am not the right person whom you should ask to clean up your names because of your scandals. Ask him not me." Ayesha said and left Sabrina and Calvin who were still kneeling. "Brother Liwie really went over board in playing." she thought as she made her way to the teacher''s faculty room. She knocked at the door and opened it. "Hello Good Morning teachers, is Mr. Salvador around? May I speak to him?" she politely asked and one of the teachers said that he is in his cubicle. Ayesha went inside and made her way to Knight''s cubicle. She went inside and close the door. "Yes? Ayesha what can I do for you?" Knight asked her. "Calvin and Sabrina apologizes to me." She said. "Thank you for what you did but it seems that you went a little bit over board at what you did to them." she added. "I just want to get revenge for you." He stood up and closed the space between him and Ayesha. "By the way did you like my surprise earlier?" he asked her while touching her hair. "Ah yes! Thank you, I love the necklace and also the blue rose, they were my favorite flowers." she said while locking her gaze to Knight''s handsome face. "Good that you like it." he said in a husky voice before claiming her lips in a passionate kiss. Knight chuckled when he separate from Ayesha''s lips, his baby doesn''t know how to kiss, there are still plenty of time, he could still teach them before and after there marriage. Ayesha''s face was super red and she immediately bid goodbye and she dash out for the room, "Why didn''t I push him" she thought. "And it seems that I enjoyed it a lot." her face is as red as a tomato right now. She hurriedly went back to her classroom and hide her face in her arms. "Stupid Ayesha. He already snatched to kisses from you" She thought to herself and sighed. Chapter 18 - Going Home Weeks have already passed since all the dirty little secret of Calvin and Sabrina were exposed. Calvin was arrested by the police because of doing some illegal business and having illegal connection with some businessmen. And his parents didn''t help him because they want him to learn from what he did. Sabrina was also arrested because of suing illegal drugs but was bailed by her parents. They sent her to another country for her rehabilitation. So much have changed in Calvin and Sabrina''s life but for Ayesha it was still the same. She is still having nightmares, she still have her annoying best friend and Knight is still pursuing her and they are on the stage of getting to know each other in fact it is only Ayesha who is stuck in this stage because Knight already knew her very well. Ayesha is having a great time relaxing at her balcony as she leisurely and comfortably sits on her chair which is made of rattan, reading a novel and a cup of tea and desserts is place on the table next to her. She was so engrossed in reading that she didn''t immediately noticed her phone keeps on ringing. The caller kept on calling her until she finally noticed and she picked her phone and answered the call. "Hello" she lazily answered without even looking at the caller''s name. "Did I disturb you my dear Granddaughter." an old man''s voice spoke in the other line. Ayesha sat up as soon as she heard the voice. "Grandpa, no.. no you didn''t disturbed me, I was just reading a book." she answered. "Your timing is really great Grandpa, I was reading the most exciting chapter in the novel." she thought to herself while feeling downhearted. "By the way why did you call? And how are you and Grandma?" she added as she regain her cheerful tone. "Good I thought I have disturbed you. Me and your Grandma are doing well here. Oh I called because I want to have a little chit-chat with my only grandchild." Her grandfather said but Ayesha didn''t believe him, her Grandfather would only call her when he wanted to tell something to her very important. "Spill the beans Grandpa, you have something to tell me." she said while looking at her book. Her Grandfather sighed and said, "I want to tell you that your Grandma misses you so much and we will be going home, she have already book us a flight, and we are currently at the Airport right now waiting for our number to be called, and probably we will arrive there by night time already. She wanted to surprise you but I had the feeling that you might freak out when we arrive there that''s why I called you." her grandpa said in a low voice even though he is sitting all alone because his wife went to the comfort room. As soon as Ayesha heared that her Grandma will be going home she freaked out and she didn''t mean to shout at her Grandpa. "WHAT? Grandpa why didn''t you stop her? You know I don''t like being with Grandma because she would just drag me to go shopping with her and she would force me to dress up like a noble lady." she wh?n?d at her Grandpa. She shivered when she remembered how her Grandma would dress her up and drag her to the mall to by her new clothes. Ayesha is a little bit scared of her Grandma because she is strict when it comes to proper etiquette but also have a quite childish personality when it comes to Ayesha, she doted on Ayesha the most. "You know I''m also scared of her that''s why I didn''t dare stop her." Ayesha only sighed at what his Grandpa said. Her Grandfather may be ruthless when it comes to handling family matters and the business but he is most likely a puppy when it comes to her Grandmother. "And besides she wanted to meet the man whom you will be tied to for the rest of your life, I also want to meet him and talk to him personally." her grandfather said in a very serious voice. "Ok Grandpa, I know I cannot do anything, I would just tell mother and father that you will arrive this evening so that the driver could fetch you at the airport and we could also prepare your rooms and mother could also make some of your favourite dishes." Ayesha said. "Ok dear Ayesha, I need to hang up now because your Grandma is already coming here in my place, I don''t want her to know that I''ve inform you ahead." Her Grandpa said "Ok Grandpa take care." Ayesha said and ended the call. She place her book at the table and stood up, she went out from her room and made her way to the living room, there she saw her parents happily chatting and teasing each other, she could almost she the sparkles that surrounded her parents. "Mother and Father may I disturb you for a while, I have something to tell, a good news and a bad news." She said, "Which do you prefer to be first the Good News or Bad News." She asked her parents in a serious tone. "Good News" her parents said in unison. "Ok as you two wish, the good news is grandpa called and he said that they will go home." Ayesha stated. "And the bad news is they will be coming this evening." she added. Her parents looked at her for a minute, they were still processing what their daughter have just said, after they have processed everything they stood up and asked the servants to immediately clean the masters bedroom because the two elders will be coming home. Mrs. Gonzales have also asked some servants to buy the ingredients that was listed on the paper she have written. Everybody in the Gonzales Mansion are busy except for Ayesha who went back to her room and continue reading the chapter where she have stopped. Chapter 19 - Grandparents At the Airport The plane had landed safely and the pilot have announced that they have already arrive at their destination, the passengers stood up and got their luggages and went out. Two Elders made their way out from the airport with their two secretaries and bodyguards following them at the back. While walking, the two of them attracts the people''s attention because of the woman''s aura, she looks like a noble lady because of how sophisticated and dazzling her aura is, and beside her is a man who also gives off an aura of a strict yet gentle noble man, they are ended a perfect match. And the two may already look old on their outside appearance because of the wrinkles that is already visible on their faces but both of them are still strong. As soon as they are out from the airport, a man in black suit approached them, "Good Evening Madam and Sire." he said and bowed. "I am Antonio, your driver for tonight. Your son, Mr. Gonzales asked me to fetch you and safely drive you to the Gonzales Mansion." he politely said and guided the two elders towards the car. The bodyguards and ?ssistant secretary rode on the other car. While the other secretary was with the two elders. The elder madam looked at her husband with a questioning look as if asking him on how did there son knew that they would arrive tonight. The elder man just looked away, he cannot tell his wife that he have called her Granddaughter. As soon as they are inside the car, the elder madam spoke to her husband. "Did you call our grand-daughter?" she asked with a calm voice. Her husband nodded, he is quite scared of her right now, he could feel that she is starting to get mad. "How could you ruin my plan to surprise her." She said in a frustrated and angry tone. Their trusted secretary who was sitting at the front just shook his head as he watch the elder madam scold his boss. That night Ayesha prepared herself because any minute her Grandparents would arrive soon. She wore a white dress and tied her hair into a ponytail style. Her Grandmother is very particular when it comes to her fashion style. Ayesha heard a car''s engine died down, she took a peak at her balcony and saw that it was her Grandparents, they have already arrive. While Ayesha was fixing herself in her room, her parents welcomed the two elders. "Mother, Father, welcome back. I missed you both" Mr. Gonzales said to both his parents. "I missed you son." his mother said to him. "I missed you to my boy." his father said to him and give him a big hug. His father really treated him strictly when he was still a child and even when he was a teenager but all of that changed when he already had his own company and family. He was thankful for both his parents because they raised him to the man he is now. "Welcome back mother, father." Mrs. Gonzales also greeted to her in-laws. "You are still beautiful Lucia." her mother-in-law said to her. "You are also still dashing as ever mother." she also complimented her mother-in-law. And while they are busy talking. Ayesha went out from her room and strode down the stairs to greet her grandparents. Her grandma noticed her and when she arrive at the doorstep, she was immediately attacked with a hug from her Grandma. "Ayesha my dear, I am so happy to see you again, I missed you so much." Her Grandma said joyfully while hugging her tightly. "Oh I missed you too so much Grandma, your as dashing as ever." she complimented her and broke free from her Grandma''s hug. "I can''t wait to take you to the mall tomorrow, let''s go shopping, you may also bring your best friend, Aria with us tomorrow, I also missed that child, she is also like a grand-daughter to me." her Grandma suggested. "But Grandma we have classes tomorrow." she told her Grandma. "Oh dear! You can just present some excuse letter to your teachers, accompany me tomorrow okay. And besides I want to spend time with you, your Grandma is already getting older and older, I need some relaxation with my grand-daughter." her grandma said while acting pitiful. "Besides, I will then spend some grown-up time with your mother. I want to first have a quality time with you and Aria because I want to feel being a teenager again." her Grandma said while giggling and even found some excuses for her to come along and go shopping with her. "Grandma what a great shift on your personality, and besides also you''re maybe old but it is just your outside appearance, but your still very very strong on the inside." Ayesha thought to herself. "Hey don''t solo my grand daughter all by yourself." Ayesha''s Grandpa said to her Grandma. "I missed you so much Ayesha." he said to her and gave her a warm hug. "I missed you to Grandpa." she said and also hugged her Grandfather. "Let''s get inside first because the wind here is already chilly and you two might get some cold, we should be mindful on both of your health." Mr. Gonzales suggested while looking at his parents. "I''ve personally prepared your favourite dishes and I also made some healthy dessert for both of you." Mrs. Gonzales said. They all went inside the mansion, Mr. Gonzales instructed the servants to take the luggages to the Masters bedroom while Ayesha and her mother guided the two elders in the towards the dining area as soon as they arrive they saw that the table was full of so many scrumptious delicacies and it will be a long dinner for all of them. While eating, Ayesha''s Grandpa was talking his son about the business, while Ayesha''s mother was talking to her Grandma. Ayesha could see that it was a happy scene, but yet she felt a little sad, "If only you are here brother, you could also experience this." she thought to herself. "Ayesha dear why are you looking so gloomy?" her Grandma asked. "Oh I was just thinking of something Grandma, don''t mind me." Ayesha gleefully said. Her Grandma just nodded and continue talking to her mother. "Ayesha, I want to meet your fiance tomorrow." her Grandfather said. "Ok Grandpa I''ll tell him." Ayesha said and she started eating. After there dinner, everybody went to their rooms. The two elders needs to rest already. Ayesha went inside her room, she got her phone and also a piece of paper that contains Knight''s cellphone number. He purposely left it during the time he took revenge on Calvin and Sabrina. Ayesha typed the message and sent it to Knight. ----- In Knight''s apartment Knight was reading a contract when his phone vibrates, he put aside the contract and he picked up and saw that it was a text from an unknown number. He opened it and he read the message. "Brother Liwei this is Ayesha,sorry to disturb you if you are doing something, I just wanted to tell you that my grandfather wants to meet you, and this is my phone number, you may or may not save it. Goodnight" Knight smiled, "I knew that my number would become handy." he thought to himself. "Ok baby, I''ll meet your Grandpa tomorrow. And I''ll absolutely send your number. Goodnight, I love you." he type and send it. He then went back to reading the contract with a smile pasted on his face. As soon as Ayesha saw Knight''s reply she immediately blushed. "This man is really shameless." she thought. She also texted Aria that her Grandma wants her to come with them to go to the mall and do some shopping. After she had sent it to Aria, she decided to sleep because tomorrow will be a tiring day for her. Chapter 20 - Knight meets Grandpa It was a lovely morning, Knight was having his breakfast at his apartmeny, he was drinking his coffee with his secretary Louise, he already filed a one day leave from school because Ayesha''s Grandfather wanted to meet him. "Boss, I came here to let you sign this documents not to have a breakfast and coffee with you." Louise said as he sipped at his own cup of coffee. "Really?! Your word is really contradicting to what you are doing." Knight teased him. Louise just rolled his eyes and handed Knight the brown envelope which contains the important documents that needs Knight''s signature. "I''ll sign this later this evening. I will be going to the Gonzales Mansion, the elder Gonzales have arrived last night, he wanted to meet me today. And you will come with me." He said to Louise as he finished his own breakfast and stood up. "But I have so many things to do in the company, because my Boss which is supposed to be the CEO of a multibillion company has gone mad that he actually left me to manage his company on my own, just to become an English Professor in a prestigious university. I just cannot let those documents piled up, I also want to have some relaxing time Boss so I need to finish them all and besides you also have some meetings to attend but you can''t so on your behalf I''ll attend them all." Louise wh?n? at Knight. Louise is capable of acting as a deputy CEO because he also came from a very prestigious family in France but he still followed Knight. "If you accompany me today, I will give you a one day vacation. And I''ll go back to the company for one day." Knight proposed to Louise and his secretary immediately agree. "You wash the dishes, I''ll go prepare myself, we will go directly to the Mansion after I''m done." Knight said and made his way to his room. Louise just sighed at how cunning his boss is. While Knight was already having his morning shower, Ayesha on the other hand is still one with her bed. She is sleeping soundly that she didn''t noticed her Grandma and bestfriend looking at her. "Ayesha darling wake up. We will go to the mall remember." Her Grandma was trying to wake her up but it didn''t work. "Grandma Alicia that is not the proper way to wake Ayesha up" Aria said to Ayesha''s Grandma. "This is the proper way to wake her up." Aria went to Ayesha''s side and she shouted. "AYESHAAAAAA WAKE UP." Ayesha immediately woke up and she glared at her best friend. "You are always ruining my dreams." she lazily said. And looked at her Grandma who was currently shocked of what Aria did, that was not a proper lady should act. But still it was a success, her grand daughter woke up. "Good morning Grandma, just give me minute and I"ll be ready to go." she said to her Grandma. Ayesha stood up while her Grandma and Aria went out from her room. She don''t want to go but she knew her Grandma would find a way to drag her to the mall. She just went out and took her morning shower. After Ayesha was done from her routine, she went out from her room and went downstairs. "Baby Ayeshaaa!! I missed you." Kier immediately hugged Ayesha as soon as she went down from the stairs. Ayesha also give a hug at Kier. "Missed you to Big Brother." "I''ve brought Big Brother with me because he will be our driver and also he will bring some of our stuff." Aria said while watching her big brother who was already walking towards the car. His brother just wanted to have sometime with Ayesha even if grandma and her are around. "Ok let''s go, I have already told your Grandpa that we will have some bonding today and he can also do something with Knight." her Grandma said. And they started walking towards the car. Kier ?ssisted Grandma Alicia in getting inside the car. He went inside the driver''s seat and started the car''s engine, while the three ladies are at the back who are already talking. And off they go to the mall. While the four of them are on their way to the mall, Knight''s car have just entered the Gonzales Mansion''s gate. Knight''s car stopped at the main door. When he got off from his car, a servant was waiting for him. "Young Master Knight, the elder Gonzales is already waiting for you in the garden''s pavillion. I will guide you there." the servant said and he started walking, Knight followed him, and Louise was also following Knight. The garden was full of flowers, especially blue and white roses, it was still the same 8 years ago. Memories started flooding in his mind. This was the place were he and Ayesha''s brother always spend there time and Ayesha would always start bugging him to also play with her. "Elder Master, Young Master Knight is already here." the servent said and he guided Knight inside the pavillion. And Louise''s was waiting for Knight in the corner. "You must be Knight?" Ayesha''s Grandpa asked in a very serious and strict tone. "Yes, I am Mr. Gonzales" Knight said politely. He needed the old man''s approval so he needs to behave. "Please to meet you. Have a seat." Grandpa said, his strict and serious voice his still present. He took a sip and looked at Knight. "Pleased to meet you to Sir." Knight said and he sat down. The servant serve him some tea. "You must have an idea why I asked you to meet me." Ayesha''s Grandpa said. "Yes Sir." Knight replied. "I know you knew why I doted on Ayesha so much, ever since her brother died, she became different. The cheerful her was long gone with her brother, and I know my granddaughter still blames herself for her brother''s death. That incident was a trauma to her that she even forgot some of her memories and that includes you Knight, I knew that you personally knew Ayesha and her brother eight years ago. She would always call me and her topic would always be you and her brother, I felt that she was always happy whenever you are around. And then also that time I have known that you are the Grandson of my dear old friend, your Grandma Claire. Because your Grandma would always help our family when we are in trouble, I have proposed a marriage alliance to her, that when we have a grand-daughter or grand-son we would pair both of them, and that marriage alliance would be fulfilled through Ayesha and you. I don''t have any problem with you Knight because I know you came from a good family and you are also a good child. I just want you to make my granddaughter happy and be there for her whenever she needs someones help. Please be her light because she is still stuck in that dark past." Ayesha''s Grandpa said to Knight. "Don''t worry Sir, I will always protect her. I love your grand daughter so much." Knight replied. "Just drop the Sir and call me Grandpa from now on. I also heard from my son, that you actually became an English professor even though you are already a successful CEO of a multibillion company." Grandpa said with a calm and amaze voice. "Why did you risk your company just to be an English Professor where Ayesha is studying?" Grandpa added. "I became an English Professor to protect her and also guard her from being stolen away from me. Ever since I have known that she will be my soon-to-be wife, I was so happy that I have decided to risk my company just to be with her even if I disguise myself as her professor. I can risk my company but I cannot risk her, just thinking that other men would court her makes my blood boil. Even if my company would go bankrupt because of my carelessness, I really don''t mind because I can still have a my own new company, but there is only one Ayesha in this world, and she is all I need." Knight replied to Ayesha''s grandpa. "This young man is really dedicated to my granddaughter, he would wven sacrifice his company for her. But that multi billion company would impossible to go on the verge of bankruptcy. This young man infront of me is ruthless when it comes to handling his business." the old man thought to himself while looking at the Knight''s serious face. "Very well, I can be at peace knowing that Ayesha''s soon-to-be husband is very dedicated to her." Granpa said and the two of them started talking about business. Knight even introduce Louise to Ayesha''s Grandpa. The three of them where seriously talking about business, it was indeed a peaceful morning in the Gonzales Mansion. Chapter 21 - Spender and Miser While the three men were talking about business at the Gonzales Mansion, the four people who went to the mall have just arrived at the mall''s parking lot. "Grandma where do you want to go first?" Ayesha asked her grandma. "Let''s eat breakfast first, I''m already famished because I haven''t had consumed any solid food, I was looking forward eating here." Grandma Alicia said to the three. "Ok Grandma, I have a restaurant to suggest, they serve delicious food there." Kier said and went out to asisst the old lady out. Ayesha and Aria also went out from the car. Kier lead the way and they arrived at the restaurant where Kier have suggested. They sat down and the manager of the restaurant personally approach them. "Good Morning Mr. Ventura." He said as soon as he have reached the table where Kier is sitting. "We will take the special menu today. And also please prepare some herbal tea for my grandma." Kier said. "Alright Mr. Ventura." the manager said and made his way to the kitchen. "Are you a regular customer here dear Kier?" Grandma Alicia asked Kier. "I actually own this place Grandma." Kier confessed. Which made Aria and Ayesha''s eyes big. They don''t actually know that he had build his own restaurant. "Oh good thing, you are already very successful now. I bet many girls where head over heels for you." Grandma teased him. "Oh grandma it is actually the opposite, he have been head over heels to someone." Aria spill the beans and Kier just glared at him while Ayesha let out a giggle. "Who is that lucky girl." Grandma asked Kier. "You mean unlucky girl Grandma." Aria uttered as she continue teasing his own brother. "Don''t tease your brother Aria, I bet that girl is very lucky because your brother is not only handsome but also talented and successful." Grandma praised Kier. While they are happily talking and teasing, the food came in. There where various of dishes, from seafoods to meats and desserts. "Ok let''s eat." Grandma Alicia said. The three dig in to there foods. "Grandma here is your herbal tea." Kier handed a tea cup with a herbal tea inside to Grandma Alicia, and the old woman accepted it. Ayesha was just quite the entire time, she is actually saving her energy because she knew that her Grandma would drag them after they have eaten. After they have eaten, they stayed for a minute while Kier is paying the bill. Even if it is his restaurant he still wanted to pay. "Let''s go to the boutique now." Grandma happily said. Ayesha just sighed, "Grandma don''t be to excited, how can you be so energetic even if you are already old." she thought to herself. As soon as they enter a well known boutique, her Grandma approached a sales lady. "Excuse me miss could you please get these two ladies here their sizes on every clothes that is hang on each rack. And let them fit it." Aria''s jaw drop, Grandma Alicia actually asked the sales lady to get every dresses that is displayed on these store that would fit to her and Ayesha. The sales lady did what the old woman told her. And give Aria and Ayesha the dresses that have their sizes. The two went to the fitting room and tried all of them. They would yry them and go out to see if Grandma would approve it or not. Aria and Ayesha realized that trying to fit some clothes can also be tiring. After Ayesha and Aria have tried to fit all the clothes, they felt so tired. "Okay I''ll buy every clothes that this two girls have fitted. Those clothes that I only approved." Grandma Alicia''s words sent Aria and Ayesha to shock even the sales ladies and store manager where shocked, there were a hundred clothes that where tried by this two young ladies infornt of them and both ladies have so many clothes that were approved by the madam in front of them. This is elder woman in front of them is not someone to mess with, she can actually affor this expensive clothings. The sales ladies immediately pack the clothes after they have recovered from being shock. "Grandma isn''t it a little bit to many, besides I already have so much clothes on my wardrobe" Ayesha said. This is what she have been fearing all day. Her Grandmother is a great spender when it comes to clothes, bags, shoes and many more. She won''t stop until she is satisfied. "Ayesha dear that was just a small amount of cash." Grandma Ayesha said as if she didm''t care spending to much. Ayesha just looked at her in dismay. "Grandma I know you are rich but don''t spend to much. There are still people on this country who are in need of money." she thought to herself because she knew that her Grandparents where also helping some kind of organization that helps the poor. And she knew also that she cannot win in any arguement with her Grandma. She was a renowned and ruthless lawyer after all. Aria and Kier on the other hand where just looking at the two ladies of the Gonzales family. One is an old lady who spends to much while the other one is a young lady who is actually a miser. They understand now why Ayesha hates being with her Grandmother, the two actually don''t match perfectly. "Ok let''s go to the next boutique, we should buy some casual clothes for you and Aria and some men''s clothes for Kier." Grandma cheerfully said. Kier immediately turned down Grandma Alicia''s suggestion and he just found a perfect reason for it. But the two young ladies didn''t escape from their Grandma''s plan. They came in and out from every botique that their Grandma would see and she would never fail to amuse the three youngters. She would actually buy all of the stuff that she would approve. After their shopping, they decided to go home since they have already bought so many stuff. As soon as they went inside the car, Aria was exhausted, she have never felt tired from shopping until she experience it today. "Did you enjoyed our bonding today?" their Grandma asked them. Kier just nodded as he started the car''s engine. "Yes grandma, we super enjoyed it." Ayesha said as she smiled at her Grandma, she was trying to hide the exhaustion from walking and trying to fit all the clothes. "Good! Because we will have our next bonding." Grandma uttered. The two young ladies were terrified by the idea. It was already a traumatic experience for Aria and a nightmare for Ayesha. "Let''s go to the Gonzales Mansion now Kier, you two would stay for dinner just call you parents." Grandma said and Kier immediately drove the familiar road to the Gonzales Mansion. Knight on the other hand was already bidding goodbye to Ayesha''s Grandpa, he still have to sign those documents he have left early this morning. As soon as Knight''s car went out from the Mansion''s gate, Ayesha''s car also went inside. The two were not destined to meet for today. Chapter 22 - Wedding Preparations It has been already a month and three weeks since Ayesha learned that Knight would be her fiance. There families didn''t held a proper engagement party knowing that Knight choose to become a professor in the university where Ayesha is studying, so as a professor he needs to follow one of the most important rule in the university which is the no teacher-student relationship. They need to keep Ayesha and Knight''s wedding as a secret. Currently, Mrs. Gonzales and Mrs. Salvador are having a meeting for the wedding preparation with the wedding organizer. The wedding will be held next month and it will just be a simple wedding, only the two families and some friends will be present on Ayesha and Knight''s wedding. Both Ayesha''s mom and Knight''s mom are the one''s who planned the whole wedding because Ayesha and Knight are both busy in school and the two men, Mr. Gonzales and Mr. Salvador don''t have any interest in planning the wedding. And the two elders are having a small vacation on some resort. Ayesha suggested that her Grandparents should have a vacation, fearing that her Grandma would actually prepare a huge wedding for her. "Well what do you think of this color?" Mrs. Gonzales asked Mrs. Salvador while pointing at a light blue color. Both women are planning on the motif of the wedding, Ayesha and Knight gave them permission since the two are both busy in school. "I like that color also and we could pair it with light purple." Mrs. Salvador said as she imagine the venue being decorated with the two colors they have picked for the wedding''s motif. "We will have a light blue and light purple for the wedding''s motif." Mrs. Gonzales said to the organizer and the wedding organizers nodded at the two women. She also thinks that the color motif is appropriate for the young lady''s wedding. As soon as they are done in choosing the motif, they then choose the flowers for the bride''s bouquet, Mrs. Gonzales choose a blue and white rose since it is Ayesha''s favourite flower. After they have picked the flowers, the two women had a cake tasting, and they choose two flavors, chocolate and mango flavor. Everything was already set, from the wedding venue to the cake and rings. The wedding organizer well just do her part in making the wedding perfect. "Ayesha''s designer will come to our house tomorrow for her measurement. I suggested that the gown would just be simple since the wedding is also simple, we could just let that two remarry again after Ayesha have graduated and have a grander wedding for both of them." Mrs. Gonzales as the two of them went out from the wedding organizer''s office. "I''m so excited to be your in-law, Ayesha is the right woman for my son. She is beautiful, kind hearted and very intelligent. The two of them would have a very very cute offsprings. I can''t wait to be a grandma soon." Mrs. Salvador said with excitement. The two women decided to go to the mall and bond since they were quite tired in the preparing the wedding which is only one month away. ------ Meanwhile in the University "Ayesha when are you going to plan for the wedding?" Aria asked Ayesha. "My mom and Mr. Salvador''s mother are already planning it with the organizers. It may be may own wedding but I''m busy in school." Ayesha said at Aria while doodling at her journal. Aria took a peak at what Ayesha was doing, and she smiled when she saw that Ayesha was actually designing her own wedding gown. "This girl is unconsciously designing her own gown." Aria thought. The bell rang as a sign that lunch time of over so Ayesha kept her things and Aria went to her own ?ssigned seat. The teacher came in and started her discussion, Ayesha was not listening through out the whole duration of the class, she was in a deep thought, "The wedding will be held in one month away from now." she thought to herself. She wanted to prepare her own wedding but she realized that this wedding is just an alliance wedding and even though Knight had told her the three words, she on the other hand don''t feel the same way for Knight. Meanwhile Aria''s phone kept on ringing, she took a peak on her phone and saw that it was her brother, she just sent him a message saying that she is still in class and her brother replied to her that he needed to talk to her about Ayesha. Aria just signed, she had a feeling that her brother already knew that Ayesha is getting married. Aria replied to her brother that she will tell him everything and looked at Ayesha''s who was still staring at her book. Chapter 23 - I will always be here for you That night Aria arrived at their house, her brother, Kier, was waiting for her in the living room. He was looking at her with his eyes full of sadness. He had only known today that Ayesha is already getting married next month. "Why didn''t you tell me?" he asked Aria as soon as she reached the living room. "Brother I''m.. I''m very sorry, I... I didn''t tell you because I thought that Ayesha would be the one to tell you but I was wrong. I think she had forgotten to tell you about her wedding." Aria reasoned out while looking at her brother. "I really thought that I could have a chance to say to her what I feel for her, I thought that I still have the chance to be with her but now she is going to be someone else''s woman." Kier said to Aria, he love so much but he was afraid that if he would confess what he feel for her, their friendship would be at risk and she would feel akward around him. Aria just watched her brother, she don''t know what to do because she personally haven''t even experience being in love with someone. "I will not give up my feeling for her but I will also not tell her about it. I will just be watching her from the distance. I will always be with her as a brother and a friend. I also made a promise to him." he added, sadness can be heard from his voice. "Brother cheer up, their are still many fishes in the sea. I know someday you can forget Ayesha." Aria said while smiling. All she can do right now is to cheer her brother and support him in his decisions. "Hey go wash up now, let''s eat something together after you are done." Kier said while patting Aria''s head. He walked towards the kitchen and Aria walked towards her bedroom. After Aria was done doing what her brother told her, she went to the kitchen and saw her brother cooking. "Aria I''ve decided to go back to New York tomorrow, my secretary have already booked me a flight. I cannot attend Ayesha wedding and birthday so could you two please accompany me to the airport tomorrow? I wanted to tell her something." Kier said as he still continue cooking. "I''m not running away from you Ayesha, I will just be keeping an eye on you even if I''m miles away from you." he thought to himself. "Is that what you want? Aren''t you running from her brother?" Aria asked Kier. "I''m not running away Aria, but if I also stay here, I may not constrain myself and I might confess to her that I love her, I don''t want her to be confused or pity me. I am already contented of the friendship we have, I don''t want to ruin it that is why I''m doing this. I will be her protector, I''ll be watching her even if we are miles apart from each other. Because I know someday something will happen to them." Kier said in a serious tone. "Are you some what a fortune teller?" Aria joked. Kier just looked at her sister. "Well if that will be your decision brother, I will not ask anymore." Aria uttered. Her brother would be hurt if he would still continue staying here. Maybe this will also be a good chance to let him forget her. "Also before I forgot to inform you, Mom and dad told me that they will be away for a month, they will celebrate there wedding anniversary somewhere out of the country." Kier said as he place the foods that he had cooked. "So I''ll be left all alone?" Aria asked. "Brother what if someone would abduct me because no one is around?" she dramatically said while acting being scared. "Aria stop being so dramatic. No one will abduct an elf-pig like you." Kiee joked at her sister. Aria was a little chubby and a little smaller than Ayesha so he usually teased and call her elf-pig. Aria just rolled her eyes. "Why did I have a brother like you?" She asked. "Well you are blessed to have a brother like me so just be thankful to have a brother like me. I''m handsome, talented and successful." Kier said. "And also a coward who cannot confess his feelings to the girl he like." Aria murmured. "What are you murmuring their elf girl?" Kier asked. "Nothing giant man" Aria said and she continue eating. The two of them continued eating while teasing each other. After they have eaten, Kier went to his room to pack his things while Aria went to her room and texted Ayesha that they will accomoany her brother to the airport tomorrow and Ayesha said okay with out asking anything. ---- The next day they are on their way to the Airport. Aria and Ayesha were talking about the dresses for the wedding while Kier was just looking at Ayesha and listening to them. "By the way Ayesha, what is your plan for your twentieth birthday party?" Aria asked. Ayesha birthday is on Saturday next week. "Mom wanted me to have a party and Grandma and her volunteered to organize my party. Just expect the unexpected birthday party of mine this year." Ayesha answered Aria''s question. She remembered how excited her Grandma''s face when they talked about her birthday party. As soon as they arrived at the airport, they walked towards the departure area. While walking Ayesha was talking to Kier. "Brother Kier I''m really really upset because you cannot attend my party and also the wedding. Is your work really that urgent?" Ayesha asked. Both Ventura siblings reasoned out that Kier is needed in New York. "I''m very sorry Ayesha but yes my work there is very urgent. And I''ll be also satying there for good." Kier said as he faced Ayesha. "Don''t worry I will always be here for you. Even if I''m miles away from you, I will protect you no matter what happens okay? And don''t forget to always be happy and smile." he added. Ayesha just nodded and gave Kier a hug. "Someday Ayesha, we will meet each other again. And maybe, just maybe I can stay by your side already. My feelings for you will never change." Kier thought as his heart hurt so much when she separated from his hug and her radiant smile was present on her face. Aria who was looking at the two was also in great pain, she wished that her bestfriend could have just love her brother but she cannot direct Ayesha who to love. "I''ll be going now, take care both of you." Kier said as he gave Aria a hug and said that he love his only sister. He again faced Ayesha and gave her one last hug. "I love you remember that always baby." he softly whispered into her ears. Ayesha just nodded not knowing and feeling that he really meant that he loves her not in a sister like feeling but as a woman. Kier slowly walked towards the gate and wave his hand as a last goodbye to both ladies. Aria was almost tearing up because her heart was like stabbed with a million knives for she knew what her brother''s real reason why he needed to go back while Ayesha also wave while she was smiling. Chapter 24 - Help me! It has already been a week since Kier flew back to New York, the days passed by so fast, but Ayesha''s daily routine is still the same. Nothing''s new to her life, she would wake up, go to school, arrive at school with gifts on her table and after the last period, she would either bond with Aria or go home and Knight would pester her at night. "Ayesha dear? Is your dress ready for tomorrow?" Grandma Alicia asked Ayesha. They are currently having their breakfast. Ayesha looked at her Grandma and nodded as a response to her Grandma''s question, Tomorrow is her twentieth birthday party and as always she doesn''t feel it. She hurriedly finished her and then stood up after she was done eating. "I''m going now." she simply said and walked away from the dining area. Everyone present in the table looked at Ayesha''s back "She still doesn''t like to have a party whenever her birthday comes." Grandma Alicia uttered as she watch her granddaughter who is now walking towards the front door. She just wanted her to feel happy that is why she had personally organized a party tomorrow. "It has already been eight years since that day happened to her and to her brother but she is still stuck to that day and still stuck to his memories." Sadness can be felt in Mrs. Gonzales''s voice as she uttered those words, she too can feel pain as she remembered what happened on that day. The two Gonzales men watched their wives who are already getting emotional in front of the foods. Grandpa Felix was also getting emorional as well and he spoke, "She love her brother very much. That she can hardly forget of the past. As I remember that boy also doted her sister so much. They were almost like twins if not for their age gap." His eyes showed sadness. Remembering that his only grandson lost his life on the same day as Ayesha''s birthday Party also make him feel pained in his heart. "Let''s not talk about it anymore, it just makes me feel sad." Ayesha''s father said when he feel that the three are starting to tear up. As a father who also lost his only son, he also feel hurt but accepting his death is the only thing he could do. His son''s life will never be returned again. They just dropped the topic because it made the atmosphere gloomy. The class 4A''s classroom was a little bit lively, every student where roaming around and talking to there friends. Midterm exam is already approaching and they are already asking for notes. "Ayesha are you ready and excited for tomorrow''s event?" Aria asked as she reached Ayesha''s table. She was the only one who is always very calm when exams are approaching because Aria is always listening to the teacher''s discussion, and she always take down notes. "Not so!" Ayesha answered while she was busy typing something on her phone. Aria also picked at her bestfriend''s phone. "Who are you texting?" Aria asked while trying to read the content of Ayesha''s message. She is a little bit far from Ayesha, she''s quite struggling reading the message. "Flower Shop, I''m going to visit his grave." Ayesha answered while not looking at Aria, and when she''s done in sending the text, she then faces Aria, "Wanna come with me?" she asked. Aria just shooked her head, she have something to do also after the last class that''s way she needs to decline Ayesha. One of Ayesha''s classmate came in and called Ayesha''s attention, "Ayesha, Mr. Salvador wants you to go to the faculty office, he have something to tell you." Ayesha nodded and said thank you. She then stood up, "I''ll go to the office." she said to Aria and went out. Aria just watched Ayesha''s back getting further away from her, "Something''s off with her today." she thought still looking at the door where Ayesha just went out. As soon as Ayesha arrive at the faculty office she directly went to Knight''s cubicle as soon as the other teacher permitted her to go in. "Good Morning Mr. Salvador, my classmate informed me that you have something to tell me" She politely said to Knight when she entered the cubicle. Knight frowned, he observed Ayesha for a couple of minutes and he felt that something''s off with her today. He stood up and walked towards her. "I just wanted to give this to you." He handed Ayesha a box, she opened it and saw that it was a wing shaped bracelet. "Tomorrow is your twentieth birthday right? This is an advance gift for you. Happy Birthday baby." he added and gave Ayesha a kissed in the forehead. "Thank you." Ayesha replied and look at the bracelet again. Knight just watched her looking at the bracelet. "I finally gave your birthday present for her. I have been keeping that present of yours for eight years." He thought to himself. "I have to go now Brother Liwei. Thank you again for this gift." she said and immediately made her way out the office. "Ayesha what did Mr. Salvador said?" Aria immediately interrogated Ayesha when she arrived back at the classroom. "Nothing much, he just gave me something." Ayesha replied and went back to her seat. The whole afternoon Ayesha was just listening to the teacher''s discussions, she tried her best to focus on the lesson because their midterm exams is already approaching. After the last period, Aria and Ayesha immediately went out from the classroom and they bid goodbye to each other as soon as they reach the school gate where their drivers are waiting for them. Ayesha went inside the car. "To the usual flower shop please." She said to Antonio, her personal driver. Antonio just drove the car and when they reach the flower shop, Ayesha went out from the car and went inside in the flower shop. She was greeted by the owner. "Good Morning Ayesha, here is your order and I also made another one, this one is free. I also want to give him some flowers." She gave the bouquet of fresh sunflowers and chrysanthemums. "Thank you. I''ll come back next time." Ayesha said and she made her way out. The driver helped her in bringing the bouquet of flowers and he placed it in front. He then revive the car''s engine and drove to the cemetery. Ayesha was the only one who went out from the car when they arrive at the cemetery, she brought the bouquets and walked towards her brother''s grave. She stopped at the grave and spoke "Brother, tomorrow is your death anniversary and also my birthday." she placed the bouquet of flowers on her brother''s grave. She sat there and just stared at the name engrave on the stone. Spade Ezekiel Gonzales is the name that was perfectly carved on the stone tomb. "It has been eight years already since you passed away and left me, us your family. Yes, eight years have already passed by but still when I recall that very day... the day you sacrificed your life for me, I cannot stop blaming myself that day would still haunt me in my sleep every night. I always asked this question to myself, Why did you sacrifice your life for me? Why?, I wasn''t a good sister to you because I didn''t listen to your warning. I followed my instinct that lead us both to danger." Ayesha said and asked the grave in front of her even if she knew that she couldn''t get an answer, a tear escaped from her eye and rolled down to her cheeks as she read his name. "I... I should be the one buried in... in this grave not you, it should be my name engrave in this name, not yours. You are a very good person and a good brother to me, you don''t deserve to die early brother but because of me, you did." her voice cracked and she started crying as she remembered his face, he would instantly smile to her whenever he sees her, his face that was full of fear when he shouted at her to run away, his pained yet happy face when he finally gave up his life just to save his dearest sister. "Forgive me brother, I missed you so so much, please... please help me let go of your memories. Please help me ease this pain I''m feeling whenever I remember you. Please help me accept your death brother." Ayesha was trying to control her sobs even if her throat hurt. She is now willing to let him go but she don''t know how. A sudden gust of wind blew and made Ayesha felt cold as if someone is hugging her, and she heard a voice softly and sweetly whispered to her ears. "You can let go of me now baby Ayesha, I don''t want to see you suffer and feel guilty anymore. I don''t want you to blame yourself because I also don''t blame you, it is not your fault why I died. I was not strong enough to protect both of us that''s why I chose to protect you first because you are my baby sister and your life is much more important than mine, I willingly died because I knew that I have protected my baby sister in exhange of my life. I wish I could still meet you in another lifetime. Forgive yourself already. And always remember that brother loves you, I love you so much. Happy twentieth birthday baby, I hope you like my gift for you. Be happy and always remember I am still watching and protecting you. Goodbye baby sister, I love you." Ayesha closed her eyes when she felt cold in her forehead, it feels like someone just kissed her forehead and then the coldness disappeared. Ayesha cried hard, her throat aches from trying to control her sobs and also her heart, she looked up into the sky, she smiled and said, "I love you to brother and thank you." She took a last glance at the tomb, she wiped her tears and made her way back to the car, she felt a little better now. Chapter 25 - Ring Ayesha woke up with a very pleasant feeling, she didn''t have any nightmare last night. She was just sitting down at her bed with her bedhair, she stared at her balcony when she heard a knock from the door. She looked at the person who knocked, it was her grandma, and beside her Grandma is her Grandpa, they are both holding a box. "Did we woke you up Dear?" Her Grandma softly asked as she entered Ayesha''s bedroom. And her husband did the same, they both walked towards Ayesha. "Oh no Grandma, I just woke up." Ayesha uttered as she fixed and combed her bed hair with her hands. "Happy Birthday Ayesha. Here is my first gift for you." Her Grandpa said as he sat down at Ayesha''s bed and handed her a small box. "Thank you Grandpa." Ayesha replied as she took the small box and opened it. It was a ring, the design of the ring is suitable for a man. Ayesha looked at her Grandpa as if asking why would he give her a ring that is suitable for a man. "That is my wedding ring. I want you to use that on your wedding day and give it to Knight." Her grandpa answered her unspoken question. He wanted Ayesha to use his wedding ring because when he would not be around anymore, Ayesha could still remember him when she would see Knight''s wedding ring. Ayesha hugged his Grandpa and said her thanks to him, her Grandpa kissed her in the forehead. He really love this grand daughter of his. "Hey hey! You are having a solo moment with your grand daughter, it my turn now." Grandma Alicia shoved her husband away from her Grand daughter and she sat down on Ayesha''s bed. Ayesha just laughed, her Grandma is very vicious when it comes to her Grandfather. "Ayesha dear, happy birthday. I know today is your birthday but as you know Grandma is already getting older and older and my body is getting weaker and weaker, I just want you to know that Grandma already wants to see her great grandchildren so after your wedding could you please already make one with Knight." Grandma Alicia dramatically requested that it made Ayesha''s face became red and hot. "Grandma!!" Ayesha shouted that made her grandma giggle. "Oh my granddaughter is shy." she thought to herself. Ayesha''s grandpa''s face became sullen, he don''t like the idea of Knight touching his granddaughter, he slightly regret arranging this marriage earlier. "I''m just joking, you two still needs to know each other more. I want you to love him first and he also needs to love you first before you two could finally have a big family. You, my granddaughter, you are not hard to love, I bet Knight already loves you. You are the only problem here, you fall inlove so slow." Her Grandma joked again. Ayesha just rolled her eyes. "Grandma today is my birthday, not my wedding day so please just greet me a happy birthday and give me my present." Ayesha uttered and she took a glance at the box on her grandma''s hand. "Okay Okay! Here!" Her grandma handed her the box. She then took it and opened it, and again she saw a ring but this time the design is for a woman. "That is my wedding and just like your Grandfather said, I want you to use that on your wedding ring." Her Grandma spoke. Both wedding rings were designed perfectly. "Both your wedding rings looks expensive, maybe I could mortgage them." Ayesha joked and both her Grandparents glared at her. She just let out a giggle as she looked at her Grandparents. "Stop joking you child and get down now from your bed and have a morning shower. You smell awful." Her Grandma joked at her and then she stood up from sitting on Ayesha''s bed. "I smell wonderful Grandma." She said and stood up, she tidied her bed. The two elders made there way out so that Ayesha could prepare herself for breakfast. While Ayesha was picking a dress, her phone suddenly rang, she took a glance on the caller''s name and it was Aria. "Hello?" She answered as she grab a yellow dress from her closet. "Oh Good Morning to you too Ayesha." Aria sarcastically replied to Ayesha. Her bestfriend didn''t even greet her a good morning. "What do you want?" Ayesha didn''t mind her bestfriend''s sarcastic replied. "I''m on my way to your house, and what''s for breakfast?" Aria asked, she didn''t have time for breakfast at their own house that''s way she decided to invite herself to the Gonzales Mansion, she also wanted to give her brother''s birthday gift to Ayesha, she didn''t prepare any gift for her bestfriend because she knew that her presence is already enought for Ayesha. "I don''t know, I just woke up, have a little chat with Grandpa amd Grandma a while ago and now I''m about to take my morning shower." Ayesha replie, she went inside the bathroom. "Okay I''ll be there by five minutes, go take a shower now, I can smell you from here." Aria joked. "Okay bye drive safely" Ayesha ended the call and took her morning shower. The Party will start at exactly seven in the evening, it will be held at the Gonzales Mansion, Ayesha didn''t know who are the invited guest but she don''t actually care. Ayesha still have plenty of time to relax and have a bonding with her family and her bestfriend. ------ A man is sitting on his chair, he was playing with a knife on his right hand and on his left hand is a portrait of a very beautiful girl, he was staring at the picture when his secretary entered the room. "Boss, we are invited to her birthday party and it is held in the Gonzales Mansion and will start at exactly seven." his secretary said politely to him. "Prepare a very expensive gift for her. And also my suit." He uttered while still staring at the photo. His secretary bowed and went out from the room. "I''ll finally see you again." He thought still staring at the picture. Chapter 26 - Expensive Gift "Boss, I''ve already prepared the gift and also your suit. And it''s already five-thirty, do you want to change now?" the man''s secretary asked. "Send the gift now to the Gonzales Mansion, I''ll change later. There is no need to rush to the venue, she wouldn''t recognize me anyway." the man said as he sip his tea. He was reviewing some important documents that will be sent to France. "By the way boss, we have acquired five percent share of the K.L Conglomerate, Mr. Shawn was willing to sell his share." The man''s secretary informed his boss. The man just nodded and signal his secretary to go out from his office. He then went back on reviewing the documents. ------ Meanwhile at the Gonzales Mansion, everyone is busy preparing for the party tonight. Aria was mesmerize by her dress, it was a beautiful blue knee length dress with a simple yet elegant design. "Grandma did you asked the designer to design a dress for me?" Aria asked Grandma Alicia who was already done dressing herself up. Grandma Alicia wore a Champangne long sleeve dress. She is still as elegant as she was in her younger days. "Yes of course you are also my grand daughter even if we are not blood related." Grandma Alicia said and dragged Aria to have a seat on the vanity mirror. "Make her more beautiful." Grandma Alicia told the makeup artist. The makeup artist started Aria''s make over. On the corner of the room, Ayesha is having a light nap when a servant knock at the door and looked for her. The servant who was holding a box walked towards her direction, and instantly Ayesha opened her eyes. "Sorry to disturb your nap Ms. Ayesha but someone sent a parcel under your name." the maid uttered as she handed Ayesha the box. Ayesha took it and the servant bowed down before going out the room. "What is that? Another gift? Who is the sender?" Aria asked when she saw the box. Ayesha shooked her head. "There''s no sender''s name written, only my information." she answered as she opened the box, and there she saw an necklace made from diamonds and the pendant was a heart-shaped blue sapphire gemstone, it was crafted perfectly and also look very expensive. "Who on earth would send her this gift? It really looks expensive." she thought to herself and she then took a peak at the box again and she found a letter, the message was well-written. Ayesha read the message. "To the most beautiful woman who is celebrating her twentieth birthday today. I hope you like my gift for you." -Anonymous "Wow! What a beautiful necklace. Who sent that? And is that a letter? What does it say?" Aria asked so many question as soon as she reached Ayesha''s place. Ayesha kept the letter back inside the box and also the necklace, she then look at Aria without answering her bestfriend''s question. "Woah, you look like a human now Aria." Ayesha joked, immediately changing the topic. "Hey! I''m already a human, but now I looked like a goddess. I love how light this dress is. Grandma''s designer is really a genuis." Aria said as she twirled around like a kid who got her first ever hand-made dress. "I wish Brother Kier is here." Ayesha said softly. "Don''t worry he didn''t forget to prepare a birthday gift for you." Aria uttered. "I''ll give it to you later." she added as she took a glance at herself in the mirror. "Ayesha it''s your turn now." the make up artist said and Ayesha immediately stood up and walked towards the vanity mirror. It is already six-fifteen, the whole glam team only have a couple of minutes left. The make-up artist then start putting some products on Ayesha face while Aria was sitting on the chair and texting her brother. Her brother was reminding her about his gift and Aria said that she will hand it to Ayesha later after she''s done with her make up. While the glam team are busy beautifying Ayesha in her room. Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales where already at the front door, greeting the guests which were composed of their business partners, their family''s closest friends and relatives. And the two Gonzales elders are at the garden talking with their close and old friends. The guests are already many and some of Ayesha''s classmates where also present because of their families who have good relationship with the Gonzales Family. The Salvador Family are also on their way to the Gonzales Mansion, Knight''s Grandma was also with Mr. and Mrs. Salvador. Knight on the other hand was also heading to the Gonzales Mansion along with his secretary. The mysterious man who also gave Ayesha the expensive necklace was also getting inside his car and also he is on his way to the venue. In any minute the party will start and Ayesha will also witness Knight''s special gift for her. Chapter 27 - Fireworks and Flowers with a box of chocolate and ring "Is she already done?" Mrs. Gonzales asked one person from the glam team when she entered Ayesha room. The party well start five minutes before seven. All the guests have already arrived and they are just waiting for the birthday girl. "Yes, she is already done Mrs. Salvador. She''s good to go." the person who was being asked answered. Ayesha''s mother walked towards her daughter who was now watching herself from the mirror, seeing her gorgeous daughter made Mrs. Salvador tear up. "Mother how do I look?" Ayesha asked her mother when she saw her walking towards her direction. "Very lovely, just like your mother." Ayesha''s father was the one who answered as he walked inside his daughter''s room and wrapped his arms on the waist of his wife. He looked at Ayesha, his baby girl is already a woman, she is not a teen anymore. "Thank You father." Ayesha took a step forward and gave both her parents a hug. "Okay let''s go now, the guests are already waiting for our beautiful birthday celebrant." Ayesha''s mother said as she separate from the hug. Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales walked first downstairs and signaled the Emcee to start the party. "Ladies and Gentlemen, let us all welcome our birthday celebrant for tonight, Ms. Ayesha Myne Gonzales." the emcee spoke and all the guests stopped what they are doing as they followed the spotlight, and there they saw standing at the top is a beautiful and gorgeous woman. As she gracefully walked down, she emits an elegant aura of a young heiress. Her turquoise sleeve lace dress is perfectly fitted to her body, it emphasizes and hugged her thin waist perfectly. Knight was watching her with full of adoration and admiration in his eyes. As soon as she reached the last step of the stair, a hand was extended before her. She glance at the owner of the hand, it was Knight. She smiled at him and gladly took his hand, he ?ssisted her towards the stage in front. Ayesha sat down at the center right beside Aria and on her left is Knight and beside Knight is his Grandmother. At the very corner of the mansion, a pair of eyes is intently gazing at Ayesha, longingness and sadness are the emotions that can be seen in his eyes but it was immediately change into admiration and full of love. He then gazed at the person beside her, his gaze is like of a lion''s who is ready to kill his prey. As he was looking at the two people in front a woman approached him. "Are you alone?" the woman asked. He just stared at the woman with his cold gaze, his secretary immediately went to his said. "Excuse me Miss, my master don''t like to be disturbed when he is alone." his secretary politely said to the woman, the woman immediately leave without saying a word. And the man once again gaze at Ayesha. "Please let us all welcome the Grandfather of the birthday celebrant to give us all an opening speech." the emcee spoke, Grandpa Felix stood up, he still look strong despite his age and appearance. He walks towards the emcee and got the microphone from the emcee''s hand. He spoke in a very autocratical yet quite gentle voice "Good Evening young ladies and gentlemen, I just want to welcome you all to my granddaughter''s birthday party, this party is the first ever party that my wife and Ayesha''s mother have organize since eight years ago. Our dear Ayesha despise having a party when her own birthday comes but because she now a fully grown woman, not a teen anymore, her Grandma blackmailed her to have this party. Grandpa Felix turned to Ayesha''s direction and he spoke softly, "Ayesha, Grandpa would like you to know that I love you so much and happy birthday once again." he then looked at the guest, "And thank you for coming to my granddaughter''s twentieth birthday party. Dinner will be serve first and please enjoy the party after the dinner." Grandpa Felix lastly spoke and handed the microphone back to the emcee. Dinner was first serve, Ayesha and Aria are quite starving already. Aria was definitely drooling at the serve food in front of her. "You look so beautiful today." Knight whispered as he complimented Ayesha. "Thank You Brother Liwei." Ayesha replied as she dig in to her food. "Happy Birthday, I will just give my birthday present after the party if it is okay for you." Knight again whispered to Ayesha''s ear. "Oh no. It''s definitely okay for me. No need to rush in giving me my gift and beside I already receive an advance birthday present from you. Remember when you gave me the wing shaped bracelet yesterday." Ayesha said as she looked at Knight''s face. "Oh that bracelet, it was a present from someone else, he told me to give it to you." Knight uttered without saying Ayesha''s brother''s name. He was trying to hide the nervousness of his voice. Fearing that Ayesha might suspect something. Ayesha frowned, she was curious of the givers name but she didn''t further asked for more questions, she just went back to eating her dinner. While Ayesha and Knight were talking to each other, they didn''t know that some of Ayesha''s classmate are eyeing the two of them. "I didn''t know that Ayesha personally knows Mr. Salvador." one of Ayesha''s classmate uttered as she looked at the two people talking in front. "Look they look like a sweet couple, aren''t they perfect for each other?" another classmate said. "They could be a thing if only Mr. Salvador is not a professor in our school." another girl said while chewing her food. The other girls agreed. All the guest went back to their places for the blowing of the birthday cake. The emcee called Ayesha, and aske her to make a birthday wish before blowing the candles. Ayesha closed her eyes and wished, "I wish that I could live a happy and peaceful life along with my love ones." after she have said her wish she then blew the candles. All the guests clapped their hands. The cake was cut and was distributed to the guests, while they are eating Mrs. Gonzales gave a speech for her daughter. "Ayesha as you turn twenty today, I just wished that you would be more responsible on your action, you are not a teen anymore darling. I hope that as you open a new chapter in your journey as fully grown woman, you could be more optimistic and that you will always accept the mistakes that you made because you can never change them the only thing you can do is accept them, because these mistakes can make you more stronger. And I hope that you would forgive yourself, it was not your fault on what happened that day. I love you baby always remember that and Happy Birthday again darling" Ayesha''s mom said as she wiped the tears that are rolling in her cheek. Ayesha stood up and gave her mom a tight hug. "I love you to mommy, thank you for everything." Ayesha whispered to her mom''s ear as she was also trying to control her tears that are attempting to escape from her eyes. The emcee spoke again and this time Ayesha'' father will give his message to his only daughter. "Good Evening everyone, thank you for coming to my daughter''s twentieth birthday party. Ayesha, daddy loves you so much and I will always be here for you, you will always be daddy''s little girl even if you are already a fully grown woman and if ever you will get married someday, nobody could change the fact that you are my baby girl. Happy birthday again baby. I love you." Ayesha''s father said and he looked at Ayesha''s direction. "I don''t want to shed a tear today because I know for sure that your mom won''t stop crying if I would make my message longer." he added and gave the mocrophone back to yhe emcee and walked his way to Ayesha and gave her a hug. He then wiped the tears of his wife and gave her a peak in the lips. "That was so sweet, now it is time for our birthday celebrant''s bestfriend to give her speech for Ayesha." the emcee said and Aria stood up and got the microphone. "Hi! Ayesha, wow this is just like you are having a second debut." Aria joked around that made the guest laughed. Aria then spoke seriously this time, "Happy Birthday to you, my one and only bestfriend since fetus days. I am very grateful and thankful that both our mothers are best friends since their college days, because of them we two meet each other. Thank you for being their always for me even if you would tease me about my height and you would pair up with my lion brother just to tease and make fun of me. Thank you for all those sad and hapoy memories that we''ve shared together. Remember always that I will forever be your gorgeous and stunning best friend, I''ll make sure that no one can replace me. For better and for worst I will always support you and your love life is one of that. Happy Birthday again Ayesha. I love you." Aria ended her speech and she run towards Ayesha and gave her a tight hug. "That was so sweet of you Ms. Aria, you were actually making a vow earlier." the emcee commented. "And now to formally end the party, let us hear our birthday celebrant''s speech." the emcee uttered as Ayesha stood up, Knight also ?ssissted her in getting up. Ayesha then took the phone as soon as she stood at the center. "First of all I would like to thank my mom and Grandma for organizing this amazing party" Ayesha looked at her Grandma and her Mother''s direction. "To my glam team for making me look like a human for tonight." Ayesha joked as she looked at the table across her, where her glam team seated. "And to all of you for attending and coming to my birthday party." Ayesha looked at her guests. She then spoke again, "Eight years ago, I told my parents that whenever my birthday would come, I don''t want them to organize a party for me, because during my thirteenth birthday, my brother also died." Ayesha voice cracked as she was narrating why she stopped having a partu whenever her birthday would come. "For eight long years, I have blamed myself but then I realized that my brother won''t forgive me if I can''t personally forgive myself from what had happened. To my family, thank you for always being there for me in times of my difficulties and trials in life. To my bestfriend, Aria, thank you for being my clown and energizer whenever I''m down. To my friend out there, thank you for not judging me. And to those people who also judge me, thank you because without all of you, I wouldn''t be a strong person. I thank all of you for becoming the source of my strength. I formally now end this party. Thank you once again. Good Night and have a safe trip." Ayesha ended her speech, everyone clapped there hands. Some of the guest where already going out because it was also past midnight and some gueststayed for a while to talk to the Gonzales family. The Salvador family where guided to the guest room, Ayesha insisted that they should stay because Knight''s grandma also needed to have some rest. Aria also went to Ayesha room, she was already sleepy. While no one is watching, Knight grabbed the chance to bring Ayesha to the place where he planned to give his birthday gift to her. "Where are we going Brother Liwei?" Ayesha asked as she let Knight dragged her gently towards his car. Knight didn''t answered her question instead he revive the car''s engine and drove towards a bridge. They stopped there and Knight went out from the car and he ?ssissted Ayesha in going out. "What are we doing here?" Ayesha asked and then exactly a firework made a "boom" sound. Ayesha turned around and saw the a fireworks display was happening. She looked at Knight''s direction who was now holding a bouquet of red rose and a box of chocolates, he then handed it to Ayesha. "Is this your birthday present for me? Ayesha asked as she receive the flowers and chocolates. Knight hugged her and he spoke softly and sweetly into her ears, "Yes, did you like it?" he asked. Ayesha nodded and Knight separated from her hug, he then bend down to one knee and opened a small velvet blue box. Ayesha''s jaw dropped as she saw a blue sapphire ring and in front of her is her english professor bending down his one knee, she was totally speechless. "Ayesha Myne Gonzales, I know that you still don''t have feelings for me but I just want to formally propose to you. Will you marry me Ayesha even if this is just a marriage alliance?" Knight asked Ayesha who was still frozen and speechless. It took three minutes for Ayesha to respond. "Yes Brother Liwei, I will marry you, I also don''t have a choice but to say yes." Ayesha jokingly replied and Knight stood up and slid the ring on Ayesha finger, he then gave her a hug. He was so happy on the inside that he couldn''t help kissing the woman in front of him. The two were so indulge in kissing each other that they didn''t even notice that someone was watching them from a far. The man just clenched his fist as he was witnessing the sweet scene that his two eyes saw. His heart ached as he saw her being cuddled and kissed by another man. Chapter 28 - 3 Gold Bars Morning came, the sun is already beaming brightly, everyone have already eaten there breakfast and the Salvador Family also went home with the two Gonzales Elders who tagged along with them. Everybody where already doing there work excep for the two ladies, Aria and Ayesha who are still inside Ayesha''s room dressed in their pajamas with their morning bed hair. Aria keeps on holding and touching Ayesha''s hand. She didn''t let go of it when she saw a ring on her best friend''s finger. "Did he really proposed to you last night?" Aria asked for the fifth time as she keeps on touching the ring, Ayesha just nodded and retracted her hand from Aria''s grip. Until now she also can''t believe of what happened last night at the bridge. "Did you to uhhmm.. like kiss each other last night?" Aria asked in curiousity. Ayesha''s face became bright red as she recalled the feeling of being kissed by him. "Oh God! I kissed him back." she thought and covered her face. Aria''s eyes widened and she was about to speak when someone knock on the door and interrupted her. "Ms. Ayesha are you already awake? Sorry to disturb you, I just wanted to give you a parcel, it was delivered early in the morning but I didn''t give it directly to you because I''m afraid that I might disturb your sleep." the person who knocked explained. Aria immediately stood up and opened the door, she greeted the servant and then took the parcel. "Thank you." Aria said and closed the door. "Who is it from?" Ayesha asked while combing her hair. "No sender''s information." Aria answered and she went back to her place, she gave the parcel to Ayesha. "Open it." Aria uttered and handed a cutter to Ayesha. "Where did you get that?" She asked while looking at the cutter on Aria''s hand. "Drawer" Aria replied while pointing at Ayesha''s drawer. "Just open it." she demanded Ayesha. She is excited to see what''s inside because the parcel is a little bit heavy. "Okay Okay! You''re so excited." Ayesha took the cutter and opened the box. Her eyes widened as she saw what''s inside. "Holy Angel! It''s a gold bar." Aria took one gold bar and looked at Ayesha. "Do you have someone you know who is freaking super hella rich?" she added. Inside the box are three gold bars. She immediately opened the envelope and took a piece of paper, the message was written in a very neat and precise stroke. She read the messgage, "Good Morning Asha! Do you still remember when you were still a kid, you would always tell me that you have wished on holding and touching real gold bar, for a kid like you having that kind of wish is pretty amazing. So there right in front of you are three gold bars, that represents how real and true my feelings are for you. Don''t worry I didn''t steal or got them from illegal transaction. I hope you like them, you can do whatever you want, you can sell or keep them. It''s up to you. I have fulfilled one of your wishes, so wait for the others to come true. I Love You! -Anonymous Ayesha was still staring at the paper not even noticing Aria behind her back, peaking at the letter. "So Ayesha let me cut your long hair." Aria whispered on Ayesha''s ear and Ayesha was startled, she looked at Aria''s direction who is now holding a pair of scissors. "You already have Mr. Salvador as your fiance and now you also have a super rich secret admirer? So come here I''ll cut your hair." Aria uttered as she went closer to Ayesha. "Hey stop, put that down!" Ayesha shouted and she closed her eyes and hold her head, she was so pale and she was sweating to much. "Ayesha are you ok? Hey why are you so pale?" Aria immediately went to Ayesha side. "My.. my head hu...hurts so much." Ayesha stammered and she passed out. Aria panicked that she immediately called Ayesha''s parents. "Auntie, Uncle Ayesha passed out." She nervously said. Mr. Gonzales run towards Ayesha''s room while Mrs. Gonzales asked the one servant to immediately call an ambulance, she then faced Aria, "What happened?, she asked. "We were just opening a parcel and she was reading a letter, and I was joked that I would cut her long hair because of her secret admirer. And then she just suddenly shouted at me, she was holding her head and she was so pale. " Aria was shaking as she narrated what happened. "What Parcel? What letter?" Mrs. Gonzales asked again, worry is visible on her face. Aria didn''t have the chance to talk about the parcel because the ambulance came and Ayesha is immediately sent to the hospital along with Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales even Aria who was still in her sleeping attire tagged along. Chapter 29 - Forgotten Memories As soon as they arrived at the hospital, Ayesha was immediately brought to the emergency room. The doctor told Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales that they could only wait outside. Minutes have already passed and Mrs. Gonzales is pacing back and forth, she was so anxious and worried for her daughter. "Calm down Lucia, Ayesha will be fine." Mr. Gonzales said as he guided his wife to sit down. He too is worried for his daughter but he knew that she is a strong woman, while Mr. Gonzales was staring at the emergency room his phone suddenly rang. He answered it. "How is Ayesha?" Grandma Alicia anxiously asked his son. When they arrived back at the mansion, one servant told them that Ayesha was brought to the hospital, they immediately drove their way to the hospital. "She''s currently inside the emergency room, we are waiting for the doctor to come out." Mr. Gonzales answered and then the doctor also came out. "Mom the doctor is here, I''ll hung up now." he added and ended the call. "Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales, your daughter is safe now, she may now be transfer to the VIP ward. We have done some test and found out something, I would like to ask, did she hit her head somewhere?" the attending doctor asked as he looked at the test results. "Yes! She was my patient eight years ago." a man spoke behind Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales. He walked towards the doctor and took the medical sheet and test results, "I will take care of her Mr. Clint, you may go now." the doctor said and he faced Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales. "I think you already know the reason why she passed out, Am I right Auntie Lucia and Uncle Felix?" the man said as he looked at Ayesha''s medical sheet and test result. "Vladimir." Mrs. Gonzales uttered the man''s name. While Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales are talking with Doctor Vladimir Gonzales. Aria was the one who accompanied the nurse in transferring Ayesha into the VIP ward. Aria was just staring at her best friend''s face, she still looks pale and she was frowning. "Let''s talk in my office." Doctor Gonzales said as he walked towards his office guiding his Aunt Lucia and Uncle Felix. "Did Ayesha saw something familiar which has a connection in her past that trigger her to use her brain excessively just to recall some of her memories?" Ayesha''s cousin and personal doctor asked. "We don''t know if she saw something." Mr. Gonzales replied. "I think I know! I asked Aria earlier on what happened when they were inside Ayesha''s room. She told me that they were opening a parcel and Ayesha was reading a message and then Aria joke about cutting Ayesha hair because she have a secret admirer. I think the parcel and the message have something to do with what happened to her." Mrs. Gonzales said and looked at her husband. "Well, I need to observe her for a couple of days. Just be prepared because her forgotten memories will eventually come back and you two should do something about it before he finds out." Doctor Gonzales said seriously and he excused himself. "We need to see that parcel and also the message of that letter. I have a feeling that he is already back." Mrs. Gonzales uttered, the couple stood up and left Doctor Vladmir''s office. They went straight to Ayesha''s room, the two elders where ready there even Knight was there. "What did the doctor say?" Grandma Alicia asked her son. "She just lack some sleep mom, Ayesha''s fine now. Don''t worry about her she will wake up later." Mr. Gonzales replied, he didn''t tell them the truth. Everyone present in the room believe him except for Knight who is holding Ayesha''s hand tightly. "We will go home for now, Knight can you please take care of Ayesha first. We will be back later." Mrs. Gonzales said and Knight just nodded. "Auntie can I also stay here?" Aria pleaded Ayesha''s mom. "Aria you need to take a bath first and we also have something to ask you." Mrs. Gonzales replied seriously and grab Aria''s hand and they all went out. The room is now quiet, Knight was just staring at Ayesha''s pale face. "Please wake up now." he said and kissed her hand. Ayesha was dreaming that she was looking at a younger version of herself who is sinking deeper and deeper into the water and a young man''s figure was trying to rescue her. "You are not yet allowed to die, not until I say so." the young man spoke in a very stern voice. "You only belong to me Asha." he added. Chapter 30 - Jealous At the Gonzales Mansion. "Aria can you please show us the parcel and the message?" Mrs. Gonzales asked Aria. "I''ll get it Auntie Lucia." Aria replied and she went to Ayesha''s bedroom to get the parcel and the letter. She then went back to the living room to give the it to Ayesha''s parents. "Here Auntie, I''ll go take a shower first." she said and went back to Ayesha''s room. Mr. Gonzales took the parcel and opened it, "Gold Bars?" he uttered and looked at his wife who was now reading the message. Mrs. Gonzales looked at her husband, fear and worry is visible in her eyes. "He is here. He gave her that three gold bars, he is trying to let her remember again." she uttered. "Ayesha will marry Knight in a four weeks after her midterm exam. Should we tell Knight about Ayesha past before he meet her? I think that would be the best way in order for him to protect her." Mr. Gonzales said and looked at the gold bars and letter for the last time. ------ "Young Master, you are requested to go back to France. One of our transaction was tampered by someone and we have lost millions from the what happened. They need your opinion about what happened" the man''s secretary said. "And also madam is on the line, she wants to talk to you about something." he added and left the room. The man answered the telephone, "What is it that you wanted to tell me Mom?", he said. "When will you come back here? You were supposed to meet your fiance but you ditch her, you choose to go to that country just to see her again. You already know that she can''t remember you, but it was your own fault thought. You were so obsessed with that girl." his mother spoke. He just pinched his nose bridge, "Mom! I''ll be back there not because I want to meet her but because of the company. I still have something to do so I''ll hung up now." he firmly said and ended the call. He pressed a bu??on and the door opened, his secretary came in. "Prepare a private plane for me, I''ll go back to france. And prepare another gift for her." he uttered as he looked at his secretary. "Copy young master. Young master I wanted to inform you that Ms. Ayesha was admitted to the hospital this morning." his secretary said and the man looked at his secretary. "Send her a bouquet and make sure to attached a letter to it." He uttered while looking at some documents. "Alright Young Master." his secretary said and left the room again. The man went back to what he is doing. He was constraining himself not to visit her and show his face. At Ayesha''s VIP room in the hospital. Knight was peeling some apple when Ayesha spoke with a raspy voice, "Where am I?" she asked. "Hospital, you passed out." he answered and gave Ayesha the apple. Ayesha shook her head, "I want water." she said and Knight obligingly pour water in the glass and gave it to Ayesha, she then took the glass and drink the water. Someone knock from the door, and Doctor Gonzales, came in. He nodded at Knight and walked straight towards Ayesha''s bed. "Ayesha you''re a wake." he said. Ayesha looked at the man who spoke. "Cousin." she happily uttered as soon as she was done drinking. "When did you came back? You didn''t went to my birthday. Where is my gift?" she added. "I just came back today from New York and then I receive a call from Grandma and Grandpa, they informed me that you were admitted so I hurriedly went here from Airport. And has for your gift, I''ll give it to you tomorrow." he answered Ayesha''s question. And he spoke again. "How are you feeling now?" Doctor Gonzales asked as he adjusted Ayesha''s IV drop. "Fine! But my head is still throbbing." she answered honestly. Knight was just listening to the conversation of Ayesha and her cousin. Doctor Vladimir nodded, "Ok, I''ll visit you again later." her cousin said and left the room. The room became quiet again. Ayesha didn''t speak because she also didn''t know what to say, she still feel a little bit shy because of what happened on the bridge. "Is this Ms. Gonzales''s room? the delivery man asked. Knight nodded. "This is for her." the delivery man again said and handed the flower to Knight. Knight signed the receive portion and closed the door. His face can''t be painted. He was curious who the sender is and also he is jealous knowing that he got a rival. "Someone sent you flowers." he spoke bitterly and gave the flowers to Ayesha. Ayesha took the flower while looking at Knight, he was obviously jealous, it is really visible in his face. She took the letter and read the message inside. "I''ll be gone for a few months Asha, I can''t fulfill some of your wishes for the meantime. I also hope that you will get better. Don''t miss me to much" - Anonymous "Who is it from?" Knight asked curiously. "From a ghost." Ayesha answered and throw the letter into the trash bin. Knight just looked at her. "I''m hungry, buy me some food Brother Liwei please." she was cutely looking at Knight. "Ok fine, I''ll be back, so stay there." Knight uttered and he went out to buy food for Ayesha and for himself. Ayesha was left all alone in the quiet room, she just stared blankly at the window. Chapter 31 - Mobile Legends That night, Doctor Gonzales came again in Ayesha''s room to check on her. He saw his cousin seriously playing some games on Knight''s phone. He approached her bed, and asked her. "Ayesha does your head still throb?" he was looking at his cousin, Ayesha who was seriously playing using Knights phone. Ayesha shook her head and said, "Not anymore." "What are you playing?" he asked again. Seeing her seriously playing makes him curious. "Mobile Legends cousin so don''t bother me I''m playing a ranked game using Brother Liwei''s account. He taught me how to play and he is also in the elite level so I''m trying to win this in be in a Grandmaster level." she uttered while her gaze is still glued to the phone. Vladimir looked at Knight''s direction, gesturing him to come over. Knight also stood up and went to Vladimir''s side. Vladimir seriously spoke to Knight in a very low voice, "Don''t you know that whenever she sees or learn something interesting and her face looks like that." Vladimir pointed to his cousin''s serious face. "She won''t let go of that game you introduce to her. She likes exploring new discovery. And she won''t let go if she won''t reach the level she wanted. Goodluck to you later bro." Vladimir patted Knight''s shoulder. And he turned to Ayesha''s direction. "I''ll go now Ayesha, you can also be discharge tomorrow, and don''t forget to eat your dinner." he lastly said and went out. "What do you want to eat? Knight asked Ayesha. "You decide." Ayesha replied without looking at Knight''s direction. Knight just went out to buy their dinner without asking her anymore. After a couple of minutes, Knight went back in the room, he is bringing two paper bags. "Ayesha, it''s time to eat now." he said as he place the bags on the table. "You eat first Brother Liwei if you are already hungry. I''ll finish this last game first." Ayesha is still playing, it''s her fifth game already. Knight strode towards Ayesha''s direction and he snatched the phone away from her. "Brother Liwei, give me back your phone. I am about to win that game. It would be a waste if I won''t win and then you won''t reach the grandmaster level." Ayesha pleaded, she is about to cry. Knight just looked at her, unmoved by the sight of her pleading face. "You will continue playing this game later, after you finish eating your dinner. Your health is more important for me than this game." Knight firmly and strictly uttered. Ayesha blushed because of what Knight said, she immediately stood up and Knight was pushing the IV drop stand. "You seat there" Knight pointed at the chair near the window, and Ayesha obediently sat. Knight handed Ayesha, her food. And she started eating. Afraid that he might scold her. "Can I play again later?" Ayesha asked and Knight nodded while looking at her. Ayesha''s mood lightened up and she happily eat her food. The for three hours Ayesha was just playing Mobile Legends while Knight was reading a book for his lessons. "You sleep now baby, stop playing now." Knight said while extending his hand to get his phone from Ayesha and Ayesha obediently gave it to him, she was already satisfied in playing for three hours straight. Knight tuck her in, "Good night." he said and kissed her forehead. Morning came and Doctor Gonzales is looking at the people inside Ayesha''s room one by one. "Why are you all here?" He asked them. "Ayesha just fainted yesterday and she is ok now. She can also be discharge today." he added as he looked at his Grandma, Grandpa, his Aunt Lucia and Uncle Felix. He can''t believe that these people are his relatives, they worry to much. Even Aria and Knight are present. "I''ll go to your house everyday. I''ll give you a check up." he uttered as he turned his head to Ayesha''s direction and took the needle on her hand. Ayesha just nodded and she stood up. Finally she can go home, she still needs to do something on those gold bars. "Ayeshaaaa! Finally you are discharge. You know I was so worried that I even told my parents that I needed to extend one more night in your house so that I could visit you today. Aren''t I sweet?" Aria dramatically said. Ayesha just rolled her eyes because of her best friend''s reaction. "I want to go home now." she uttered and went out first with Aria who was clinging at her arms. The two elders followed them, while Ayesha''s parents is still inside the room with Knight and Vladimir. "If you want her to be protected by him." Doctor Gonzales pointed at Knight, "You should tell him about her past." he seriously said. He excused himself and went out from the room. Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales stared at Knight. "We will tell you but not now." Mrs. Gonzales said and went out from the room, Mr. Gonzales is behind her. Knight was left in the room puzzled. Chapter 32 - Where are my Gold Bars? Ayesha is closed her eyes as soon as she was comfortably seated in her chair, her head is leaning on Knight''s shoulder. Mrs. Gonzales looked at her daughter in the mirror. "She looks tired." she uttered while staring at her daughter. "She slept late last night because of that game she played." Knight honestly answered, it was his fault for introducing that game to her. He then holds Ayesha''s head to prevent it from falling. The sight of him doing that gesture made the single Aria to feel giddy at the same time a little bit jealous, she too wished of meeting a man like him. When they arrive at the mansion and the car stopped, the two elder Gonzales immediately went out from the car, they were ?ssisted by Aria and Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales also followed. Knight carried Ayesha all the way to her bedroom, she was in a very deep slumber that she never woke up when he picked her up in the car. He gently place her in the bed and cover her body with the blanket which have a pikachu design. He then went outside after tucking her properly, while he was walking along the corridors, his phone suddenly rang. He took it from his pocket and looked at the caller''s name. "Hello Louise?" he answered as he strode his way to the living room. "Boss can you come to the office right now?" Louise asked his boss. Knight frowned because Louise''s voice seems odd. "Okay I''ll be there in a minute." he replied and ended the call. He saw Mrs. and Mr. Gonzales, sitting and talking in the living room. "Auntie Lucia, Uncle Felix," he called their attention. "I need to go now, I still have something to do." he looked at the two couple as he was trying to bid goodbye to them "Oh okay! Thank you for taking care of Ayesha last night." Mrs. Gonzales uttered and Knight made his way out. "Auntie and Uncle would you like to eat something?" Aria came out from the kitchen and asked the two elders, but they just shook their head. "You can prepare something for yourself there Aria, me and your Auntie are still full." Mr. Gonzales said and the couple continue talking while Aria went back to make herself something to eat. -------- Knight arrived at the company building, his employees greeted him. They were quite shocked to see their boss visiting the building for the first time again, they knew that he decided to become a professor for an unknown reason. He walked straight to the elevator, he pushed the top floor bu??on and the elevator went up. The door opened and he walked towards his office. When he opened the door, he saw Louise sitting on the couch, he was staring blankly at the table. "What the matter with you?" Knight asked when he got inside the office. "Boss, I... I think I''m in love." Louise said as he looked at Knight. Knight looked at his secretary, "Did you ate something? Is this the reason why you asked me to come here?" he asked Louise. "Boss I just saw the most beautiful girl in the entire world." he dreamily uttered again. Knight just shook his head. "I probably gave him to much pressure and responsibility." he thought. "You can have a one week off, I think you are just to exhausted that it already affected your brain." Knight once again said and he went to his chair and sat down. Louise was just staring at Knight who is now reading a document. "Stop staring at me. It''s creeping me out." he uttered without looking at Louise. "And where did you find the girl whom you think you''re in love with." he asked, he is also curious because this is the first time that Louise declare that he is in love. "I saw her in the hospital this morning. I went to buy some medicine for Auntie Wanda before I went here in the office. Boss she was so cute and so beautiful." Louise said and he again stared at Knight. "You have one week vacation so go find the love of your life, I can''t let you be a single man forever." Knight said and he drove his secretary away. After Louise left the office room, Knight decided to go home and bring all the documents to his house. -------- Ayesha woke up at the sight of her bedroom and Aria''s face who is until now munching and stuffing some food on her mouth. "You''re awake." Aria uttered when she saw Ayesha sat down on her bed. "Yeah, how long have I been sleeping and who carried me here, I remember I was sleeping in the car." Ayesha asked while she rub her eyes. "You''ve been sleeping for hours already and Mr. Salvador was the one who carried you." Aria replied. "He also mention that you were heavy despite your petite body." Aria jokingly said to Ayesha. Ayesha just rolled her eyes. She then remembered her Gold Bars. "Where are my Gold Bars?" Ayesha asked while looking around her bed and table, she then looked at Aria who is still munching. Aria also looked at her, "It''s with Auntie Lucia" Aria replied and munch again. Ayesha immediately went out from bed and run towards her parents room. "Mom where are my Gold Bars?" she asked her mom. "I''ve kept them." her mom just leisurely said. "I want them back mom, it was a gift." Ayesha calmly said. "No it was not a gift Ayesha. It was an instrument to-" Mrs. Gonzales didn''t finished what she said because Mr. Gonzales handed Ayesha a box which was the same box where the Gold Bars where put. Ayesha took it, she said thanks to her dad and went back to her room. "Why did you gave them back?" Mrs. Gonzales asked her husband. "You don''t want her to get mad don''t you?" Mr. Gonzales also asked back. "You can''t do anything about that Gold Bars Lucia, it''s hers now. The only thing we need to do now is to prevent Ayesha from receiving any gift from him. Mr. Gonzales said and hugged his wife. Chapter 33 - Donation As soon as Ayesha went back inside to her room, she was instantly asked by Aria who is still munching her food, "What are you going to do with that Gold Bars? Will you give me one?", Aria asked while pointing at the Gold Bars on Ayesha''s hand. "No, I''m not giving you one, I''m afraid that you would just use the money to satisfy your own tummy." Ayesha stated as she looked at Aria''s direction, she had the urges to pinch her best friends chubby cheeks but she is also restraining herself because Aria hates to be pinched, "I will sell them and donate the money." Ayesha uttered again and she turned her back from Aria and walked towards a cabinet where she could placed the gold bars inside the vault. "I''ll take a bath first and we will go somewhere. You should also prepare Aria, you have ate so much already." she stated and went inside the bathroom. Aria also finished her food and also prepare herself. ----- "Young Master, Madam is here to see you." the man''s secretary informed him and a woman came inside the man''s office. The woman still looks younger than her actual age. She doesn''t seem to age at all. The man''s secretary went out from the room giving the two people the privacy to talk. "Mom" the man uttered as he stood up from his chair. "What are you doing here?" he asked as he stride towards his mother''s direction. "I just wanted to see you son. You didn''t went directly to the mansion when your plane landed instead you went directly here, in your company''s building. Didn''t you missed me?" the woman asked her son and gave him a tight hug. "I need to immediately solve this problem so that I could attend her wedding." he said as he guided his mom towards the sofa. "You really want her, don''t you?" she camly asked while looking at the man who is now pouring some tea for his mother. "You definitely know the answer to that mother." he replied and gave the tea cup to his mother and went back to his own table. "Why can''t you just give up on her, she is getting married to the man that her Grandfather have choose for her." she is still calm while talking to him. "That is the reason why I will never give up on her, mother. That is just a marriage of alliance, she doesn''t love that man. I still have a chance to let myself enter to her life once again. She is my everything, she is my world, mother. I have always been looking at her from a far. I don''t want her to be happy with someone else besides me." he was surpassing his anger as he talk to his mother. "Let go of her son, you can still find a better woman that you can compare to her and besides you did that thing to her, it was your own choice in the first place to take yourself out from the picture and then what? Now you wanted to make yourself enter in the pictur, to...to enter in her life again? You are really disappointing me." his mother clearly and calmly said and she stood up, "Meet your fiance when you are done solving your problem." she clearly added before going out from the room. The man lean his back on the chair and placed his hand on his eyes trying to surpress the tears that is about to fall from his face, as he remembered the bitter memories from the past and also what his mother have said a while ago. He had regretted what he have done to her in the past. All he wanted to do now is to make her happy even if she could not remember him. ----- "Where are we going?" Aria curiously asked Ayesha, they have been traveling for almost 2 hours now. "It''s a secret, just eat and be patience Aria we are almost there." Ayesha uttered as her gaze is fixed on the road. Aria just looked at Ayesha when her phone rang. She took it from her bag and and answered the call. "Hello Auntie Lucia?" she said as she looked at Ayesha who''s eyes are still fixed on the road. "Where are you and Ayesha?" Ayesha''s mother asked. She is worried sick because Aria and Ayesha were gone for almost three hours and they didn''t even asked for permission on where are they going. Aria covered the speaker of the phone and asked Ayesha on where they are. "Yesha where are we going? Your mom called me." Aria whispered to Ayesha, she was trying to lower down her voice. "Tell her that we are going to a foundation and we will donate some money using the gold bar." Ayesha replied and Aria told Ayesha''s mom the same way what Ayesha have told her and she ended the call. Her Auntie Lucia didn''t asked for more details knowing her and Ayesha are completely fine. The car stopped in front of a huge gate and there were so many kids playing around the front yard along with some nuns. Aria looked at Ayesha, she didn''t know that Ayesha is helping a foundation on her own. "You hide to many secrets from me Ayesha." she thought to herself. Chapter 34 - SEAM Foundation Ayesha stared at huge gate and above it is the name of the foundation. "SEAM Foundation" she read the name silently. "Brother, I have been properly taking good care of the only place you have built when you where still alive." she thought to herself. "Aria we have arrived, you may go out now. We will just walk from here." she uttered as she faced Aria who is still looking at her. "Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked, Aria was looking at her weirdly. "Nothing, I''m just amazed that you have keep this secret from me for so long." Aria answered her before going out from the car. "What is the meaning of SEAM?" Aria asked as they walked through the gates of the Foundation. "Well it stands for our names, Spade Ezekiel-Ayesha Myne, this foundation was built when I was still 9 years old. My brother was the one who initiated to build this foundation without telling mother and father. But we asked for Grandpa''s help and he helped as keep this as a secret. I didn''t know why he wanted to build this and I didn''t asked him anyway." Ayesha and Aria where welcomed by the head mistress of the foundation. And some of the kids who are playing in the front yard also looked at their guests. "Miss Ayesha welcome back." the head mistress greeted Ayesha with joy and she gave her a hug and then she looked at Aria. "It seems that you have brought a friend with you today." the head mistress said. "It''s nice to be back here head mistress, oh this is my best friend Aria." Ayesha introduce Aria to the head mistress. "Good Afternoon head mistress." Aria greeted and the head mistress smiled at Aria. She guided both Ayesha and Aria inside the foundation. "The other kids are playing in the back yard. The kids who are playing in the front yard where newly rescued by our people. They are still adjusting to their new environment." the head mistress said and she called one of the nuns to call the kids so that they could meet Ayesha and Aria. "Head mistress, we are not going to stay for to long, I just came here to give you this." Ayesha handed a cheque to the head mistress. The head mistress looked at the amount and she looked at Ayesha and spoke, "Miss Ayesha this is to much." she said. "You can use it to repair the whole foundation and buy some new appliances materials for the kids. I want them to live here like this is their home. And also I want to send some of the kids to school, they also need proper education." Ayesha stated and the head mistress thanked her a lot. The two continued talking while Aria is just listening to them, amazed by how Ayesha cared for this kids. "Sister Ayesha!" a kid shouted that it took the attention of Ayesha and even Aria. The kid runs towards Ayesha''s direction, he was followed by so many kids. "Michael" Ayesha stood up and gave the young kid a hug. "I missed you so so much. You grew up pretty fast." she stated again and separated from the hug. "I missed you to sister Ayesha. I''m a big man now." the young kid bragged to Ayesha. "Yes yes you are a big man now." Ayesha agreed and looked at the other kids who are at the back of Michael. "All of you didn''t you missed me?" Ayesha said as she spread her to arms to hug the kids. "We all missed you Sister Ayesha." all the kids said in unison and run towards Ayesha to give her a tight hug. "I missed you all too." Ayesha hugged all of the kids. She''s trying her best not to cry. "Everyone, this is my best friend, her name is Aria. You can all call here, Sister Aria." the kids where happy to meet Aria and Aria was also the same. "Sister Ayesha are you gonna sleep here?" Michael asked Ayesha. "I can''t Michael, I still have to go to school tomorrow. But I can stay for a few more hours if you want to play with me." Ayesha suggested and the kids jump with joy as they all headed towarda the back yard dragging Ayesha with them. Aria and the head mistress of the foundation where the ones who are left inside. "I know you have so many questions in your head right now Miss. Aria, I can answer some of it if you want." Aria was a little but startled when the head mistress spoke and she looked at the head mistress who is now warmly smiling at her. "Head Mistress I just want to know how long has this foundation was built?" Aria asked out of curiosity. "This foundation has been standing for almost 12 years already, Ayesha was still 9 years old at that time while her brother was 15 years old. I was also shocked at first when I knew their age. Their grandfather asked me a favor and that is if I could take care of a foundation built by his two grandchildren and I immediately said yes without even thinking of any payment or what. I am just moved by how thoughful Ayesha and her brother was towards other kids who are being neglected by their parents or relatives." the head mistress answered Aria''s question, but she didn''t told her the truth of what is the purpose why Ayesha''s brother built the Foundation. They walked towards the backyard. Aria could see how genuinely happy Ayesha is. The kids and Ayesha were just playing for one hour already. Aria called Ayesha, she told her that they should get going because it is also getting dark. Ayesha bid farewell to the kids, saying that they would visit the foundation. Aria also bid farewell to the headmistress and to the kids. Ayesha drove the car back to the main highway. Chapter 35 - Baby, dont you missed me? "Ayesha let''s grab some dinner first, I''m actually starving. The dragons in my tummy are starting to eat my intestines" Aria dramaticaly suggested, they are still on the road and it''s already past 7 and she''s hungry as hell. "Okay let''s eat first and then I will drive you home. Where do you want to eat?" Ayesha asked as she looked at Aria. "Let''s just have a drive thru in McDonalds, I want to eat chicken fillet, just order five chicken fillet and don''t forget the additional rice please. And you can decide on the drinks." Aria said that made Ayesha drop her jaw. "Are you a man Aria? An Athlete? Can you really finish all five?" Ayesha was so amazed by her best friend that she even asked her if she''s a man. Aria just rolled her eyes and continue tapping her phone. Ayesha found McDonalds and she drove through the Drive thru towards the cashier, she says her orders, paid and waited for their orders. "Hey bring me again to that foundation of yours okay, I''m gonna feed all those kids. Say let''s have a sleepover there." Aria suggested and Ayesha agree without any second thoughts. Their order came, Ayesha grab it and drove in the drive thru exit back to the highway. "I''ll just eat those when I arrive at home. I''ll take a nap first" Aria uttered and she easily fall into a light slumber. Ayesha''s phone also rang and she answered it immediately as soon as she saw the name of the caller. "Ayesha where are you?" a deep voice said through the speakers. It made Ayesha''s heart skip a bit, "Road" she plainly answered Knight. "Okay be safe." Knight said and ended the call. Ayesha was a little bit dumbfounded of what Knight did, he just simply ended the call. Ayesha woke Aria up when they arrived at the Ventura Mansion. She gave the paper bags to Aria, she bid goodbye and drove back home. "Where have you been?" Ayesha''s father said in a very deep voice. They were worried sick because she is still not home at seven p.m. Ayesha looked at her watch, it''s already 8:30 p.m. "We just visited a place father. I''m sorry for not texting you that I will be late in going home." Ayesha said as she looked at her father with a pleading eyes hoping that he would be lenient on her. "Next time you properly ask for permission, we know that you are already an ?du?t but as long as you are staying here, in this home we are still responsible for your safety Ayesha. Keep that in mind. Your mother was worried sick of you." Ayesha''s father said. "Go see your mother, she is in our room and after go to your room, you wash up and eat your dinner." he added and continue what he was doing earlier. Ayesha did what her father told her, she apologize to her mother for making her worry and then she immediately went to her own room. To her surprise someone is sitting on her bedroom. "How did you get in here?" she asked the man who is looking at her intently. The man stood up and grab her waist, he then hugged her tightly. "Baby? Don''t you missed me? Cause I missed you so much." the man said and hugged her even tighter. "Stop being so dramatic Brother Liwei, we just meet each other last night in the hospital and you already miss me that much." Ayesha separated herself from the hug. "Of course, I already missed you even if we have saw each other last night. I can''t wait to marry you and be with you every day and night." Knight said and again gave Ayesha a hug and even gave her a kiss in the forehead. "Hey Mr. Salvador you still have to go to work tomorrow and I on the other hand needs to wash up, eat my dinner and go to sleep." Ayesha uttered as she pushed Knight to her balcony. "Okay! Okay! Baby you don''t need to push me." Knight said while giggling a bit. "I have to go, see you tomorrow. Bye. I love you." Knight added and he climbed down on Ayesha''s balcony. Ayesha just shooked her head, she called someone to deliver her dinner, she decided to eat her dinner in her room. She then went inside the bathroom, after washing up and changing into some comfortable clothes, she sat down on her bed and she start munching her own food while reading her notes. After Ayesha''s done eating her food she decided to sleep early. She was in a very good mood today, she enjoyed her visit to the foundation and she even had the chance to see Knight, she closed her eyes and a smiled was plastered in her face. She let her self be taken over by her dreams. Chapter 36 - Business Card Morning came, the sun is beaming brightly that its rays reflects the clear glass of Ayesha''s windows. Ayesha woke up when a gust of wind blew into her face. She sat down on her bed, rubbing her eyes, she then took her hair brush and comb her hair after combing her long hair, she took her phone on the table near her bed to see the time, it''s still six-thirty in the morning. "It''s to early." Ayesha thought. Her class would start at eight o''clock in the morning. She also saw a two text message, she opened her messenger. A smile was formed on her lips as she read the message. "Good Morning baby, you wake up now." "How was your sleep? Did you dream of me?" Ayesha tap the reply box and she started typing. "Good Morning, I''m awake now Brother Liwie, please bring me some breakfast please." she sent her reply and then stood up to have a morning shower and prepare herself for school. Knight have already arrived at the school and he is on his way to the faculty room when he received Ayesha reply. He opened Ayesha''s message and read it, he then type his reply. "I''m already on my way to the faculty room, I woke up early so I also came early today. What do you want to eat for breakfast? I could buy it for you." he replied as he entered the faculty room, there where already teachers present. Knight also greeted them and he went to his own cubicle. While he was waiting for Ayesha''s reply, he organized the things he would use for his lecture later. Ayesha came out from the bathroom, she was drying her hair when her phone lit up. She took it and saw the Knight have replied to her. She start typing again for a reply. "I''ll just eat here Brother Liwei, I thought that you are still in your apartment that''s why I asked for you to bring me a breakfast." she sent her reply, put her phone back in the table and went to her closet to change for he uniform. Knight immediately took his phone when it lit up, he read Ayesha''s message. "It''s okay for me to buy you a breakfast, I also haven''t had my breakfast yet." Knight lied to Ayesha, he have already eaten his breakfast because Louise was there to prepare his breakfast. "I want to eat McDonalds Brother Liwie, just order me anything please. Let''s just eat in the rooftop. I''ll be there in a few minutes." Ayesha replied and Knight immediately went out to buy some breakfast for him and Ayesha after reading Ayesha''s reply to him. On the other hand, Louise is also on his way to the university, he forgot to give Knight a document which was his purpose why he went to his boss''s apartment early in the morning. Even though Knight gave him a one week vacation, he still needs to look at the content of the documents before Knight would review and affix his signature. He was about to drove his car inside the school''s gate when he almost hit someone, he went out from the car and went to the girl who was now sitting on the ground. Louise was starstruck for a bit when he saw the girl''s face. "She was that small girl I saw in the hospital." Louise thought to himself as he stared at the girl. "Hello, won''t you help me here?" the girl spoke and her voice is like an angel to Louise''s ears. Louise immediately bend down to help the girl, "I''m so sorry Miss, are your hurt?" he asked as he help her stand up. The girl retrieve her hand from Louise''s grip and she spoke, "I''m fine, thank you for asking and please be careful in driving next time, you almost hit me." the girl said as she dusted her skirt. "You were the one who just cross without looking at the side if there''s a car coming." Louise thought to himself, he wanted to say what he was thinking but because this girl is so cute he just kept his mouth shut. Louise spoke again when he remembered the reason why he came to the university, "I''m in a hurry so I can''t compensate you immediately. Here, this is my business card. You can call me if you need anything, my I now your name?" Louise grabbed the chance to now the maiden''s name that took his heart away from him and made him believe in the saying "love at first sight". The girl took his business card and started walking away, she then shouted her name, "Aria Ventura". "Aria Ventura." Louise uttered Aria''s name again as he just watched the girl''s back for a minute as she walked away from him. Louise went back to his car after a few minutes and drove his way towards the parking lot. Knight came back to the faculty room, in his hand are two plastic bags from McDonalds. As he entered his own cubicle, he saw Louise sitting in his chair and staring at his hand. "What are you doing here? And why are you staring at your hands? You look like a dog who just saw his first love" Knight uttered as he placed the plastic bags on a separate table and took his phone to send Ayesha a text message that he will be on his way to the rooftop. "I saw her again Boss and I even got to know her name. And I also came here to give you this." Louise stood up and gave Knight a brown envelope, before he went out, he said something to Knight, "Boss I don''t need that one week vacation you gave to me, I can start working now and I''m also willing to travel from the office to here when you need to sign a document. Bye boss." Knight just shook his head and placed the brown envelope to his drawer and he went out again bringing the two plastic bags. There are only few student who are roaming around in the school since it''s still early. Knight made his way towards the rooftop, he was being careful not to get the students attention. Chapter 37 - Breakfast Together Ayesha have arrive at the school when she receive a message from Knight, saying that he is on his way to the rooftop. She was about to walk when someone called her, she immediately knew who the person is. She saw Aria whose skirt is quite disheveled but she was also smiling. "What happened to you?" she asked her best friend as soon as Aria was in front of her. "Oh I almost died and the place of the crime scene is in front of the school gate." Aria exaggeratedly replied as she looked at her skirt and then she faced Ayesha. "Why are you so early today?" she asked her best friend who is unbelievably early today. "I will be having a breakfast in the rooftop together with my fiance." Ayesha replied without hiding the fact that she will have a breakfast together with him. "You still call him "fiance" even though you two have already registered for marriage? Isn''t that a bit weird Ayesha?" Aria questioned. She don''t understand her best friend, she''s supposed to call him darling, hubby or sweetheart when they are alone with each other. "I''m more comfortable of calling him my fiance or Brother Liwie." Ayesha clearly replied. And besides she is still knowing him, and they are not yet living in the same house. Aria just grinned and spoke, "Okay you can go now. I''ll just go the classroom and finalize our notes for the midterm exam and I also need to review for the test later. So bye I''ll go first, enjoy your breakfast together." Aria said as she bid goodbye to Ayesha, she then run towards their classroom''s direction while Ayesha went to the rooftop. She opened the door and saw her Brother Liwei sitting in a bench, he was waiting for her patiently. He didn''t feel Ayesha presence that he was startled when she spoke. "I''m sorry I''m late Brother Liwei." Ayesha apologizes as soon as she was standing beside Knight. "Are you hungry now?" she asked. "It''s okay baby, I just got here and I''m not yet hungry" he lied to her so that she won''t feel guilty of being late. Ayesha sat down beside her Brother Liwei. "Let''s eat, I think you are hungry now." Knight handed Ayesha her own food and utensils. "Thank you." Ayesha said as she receive her food. She opened it and started eating silently, she doesn''t know what to say. "Where have you been yesterday?" Knight broke the silence between them. He was also curious where Ayesha went yesterday. "Oh we just visited a place, I was with Aria yesterday." Ayesha answered and again they were surrounded by silence but Knight again spoke, he can''t stand the silence between them. "Ayesha don''t you think that this feels like our first date, but it''s not that fancy at all." Knight said with a chuckle. Ayesha looked at the person beside her, she got the chance to stare at his perfectly structured face, as she stared at him she observed that his lashes are even longer than hers and his brows are much more thicker than hers also, his nose was perfectly on point and even his lips are more redder than hers. Ayesha can''t help compare herself to him. "God? Did you really made this person a human? Not an olympian God?" Ayesha thought to herself. She was startled when Knight was also staring at her, their eyes meet and she got to see his green eyes up close. "His eyes are quite beautiful, I also wish I have does green eyes." Ayesha thought to herself as she stared at Knight''s eyes, she was mesmerized by those eyes. Knight retracted his gaze from Ayesha, he was a bit nervous and at the same time trying to constrain himself from doing something to her. Ayesha spoke, "Well even if I came from a wealthy family, I really don''t mind being on a date with a set-up like this, I prefer simple and unique dates Brother Liwei." she said and began eating again. Knight keep that in his mind, that he should only prepare simple dates for Ayesha. He then started eating his own food, letting Ayesha peacefully eat her breakfast and not bothering her anymore. After finishing their breakfast, the two of them talked for a while about the wedding before Ayesha decided to go back to her classroom because it was almost time for her first subject. She went down first and then Knight followed. Some of the students where suspicious on why the two came down from the rooftop. But because their are students who knew that Knight and Ayesha where acquainted because of their parents, they immediately said that the two of them are acquainted, so those suspicious students didn''t bother making false statement and gossips anymore. Ayesha went inside her classroom and was interrogated by Aria while Knight went back to the faculty office to prepare for his first class. Chapter 38 - Can you accompany me? Days have already passed when Louise almost hit Aria in front of the university''s gate. Louise took a peak at his phone for the tenth time already for this day, he was anticipating that an unknown number would call him and it might be Aria but to his dismay, he didn''t receive any call. On the other hand, Aria was holding her phone and the business card that Louise gave to her. She look at the card and read the name printed on it, Louise Michaelle Severin. She was having a second thought whether, she would call him and ask him for a friendly dinner tonight or not. Aria was dying to try the newly opened restaurant that is not far from their house. She already asked Ayesha if she could accompany her tonight but she was turned down and Ayesha''s reason was, she will have an advance study lesson for the midterm exam with Knight in their house and Aria being a single woman was poorly left out by her best friend who is already married to their english professor. She is currently pacing back and forth, faning the business card and practicing on what to say to him. She then type the number written in the business card. Aria was a bit nervous, aside from his brother and father, this is the first time she would call a man which is also a stranger to her. Louise face lit up when an unknown number popped on his phone screen, he answered the call immediately. "Hello." he said in a very deep voice. "Uhmm hello Mr. Louise, this is Aria Ventura, do you still remember me? I was the girl whom you almost hit in front the school gate few days ago." Aria said in a very small voice. She was a bit shy to ask but she was quite desperate to bring someone with her so that she could try the new restaurant''s menu. Louise didn''t answer for a few seconds, his heart was pumping so fast that he felt that it was about to burst. Aria spoke again, "Hello Mr. Louise are you still there?" she asked when she didn''t receive a reply from Louise. Louise cleared his throat, "Yes I still remember you Ms. Ventura. May I asked why did you call?" Louise was trying to hide his excitement. "Uhmm are your free tonight?" Aria asked and Louise immediately check his planner, he have a meeting with someone, it was supposed to be Knight''s meeting but his boss have also some plan with his dear wife and he gave the responsibilty to Louise again. "Yes, I am free tonight." he lied, he cannot let this opportunity slip away. He can just cancel his meeting and move it in another day, it''s not an important meeting anyway. "Why did you asked?" he innocently asked. "Uhmm can you accompant me somewhere tonight? I was just thinking that this might be your compensation for me." Aria said, she was hoping that he would say yes to her. "Okay I''ll accompany you. Are we going to a fancy party? Am I going to dress up or fetch you?" Louise asked. "No no you don''t need to dress up just wear something that you can be comfortable and you don''t need to fetch me. We could just meet at this place at seven sharp." Aria said the address of the newly build restaurant. "Okay I''ll meet you at seven." Louise said. "Okay, I''ll hung up now Mr. Louise. Thank you again for saying yes. Goodbye." Aria said and she finally ended the call. Louise was amiling from ear to ear because this is the first step in knowing her. He then texted his boss. "Boss, I''ve cancelled the meeting tonight. I have an important matter to attend to. I''ll just call Ms. Shan that we will reschedule the meeting." he sent his message and not less than one minute he receive a reply and the only reply he got from Knight is "Okay". He then called the person whom he would supposed to meet this evening, he informed her that they will cancel the meeting and that they will just reschedule it. And of course Louise didn''t forgot to tell the reason why the meeting is cancelled. He set his phone''s alarm clock to four p.m so that he could go home early and prepare himself and he then went back on working and reading some documents that Knight of course gave to him. ----- In the garden''s pavillion, the Gonzales family are all present except for Ayesha who is still in her bed sleeping. Knight was talking happily with Ayesha''s Grandpa, while the other elders where listening to them. "How are you Knight?" Ayesha''s Grandpa asked. "I''m doing good Grandpa, how about you?" he asked the old man back. "I''m doing well. How was your father''s business? Do you have any plan on starting your own business?" the old man asked while pouring some tea for himself. "The business is doing well Grandpa." he answered. "For the mean time, I have no plans on starting a business on my own." he was reffering on exploring a new business, the K.L conglomerate is doing well as for now. The two men continued talking while the others went inside the mansion. Chapter 39 - Just a friendly date. In K.L company''s building, Louise is sitting in the President''s chair, busy checking some documents, when his phone rang, it was the alarm he set earlier. He took his phone and turned the alarm off. He then place all the documents inside his briefcase before he stood up he made sure that all the important files are locked inside the vault which is placed inside in a very special compartment in Knight''s desk. After inspecting and making sure that he keep it well, he then strode towards the door and went out. While he is walking along the corridors of the secretary department, the ladies are looking at him through the window. They were actually talking about their head secretary who is also the substitute president of the company for the meantime. "Mr. Severin is so handsome. I bet he is more handsome if he would just smile a little bit. He is so serious about his work and whenever his with the president, the two of them looked like strict tycoons." one of the ladies said. Louise don''t usually smile when their are to many people around, he would onky show his bubbly personality to his boss which is also his best buddy when they are not working. "I am really curious if Mr. Severin is in a relationship. He is just as mysterious as our Boss." another lady commented. "When our two bosses would fell inlove, their partners are very lucky to have them." another one said. And they continued talking about the two young men. Louise went inside the elevator and he pressed the UG bu??on where the parking lot is located. He immediately went out as soon as the door opened and he strode towards his car and got inside. He place his briefcase at the back and he revive the car''s engine and drove to his own apartment. When he arrive at his apartment, he directly went inside his room not even bothering taking his shoes off. He went to his closet and choose some casual clothes, after he is satisfied with his outfit, he decided to take a long shower and make himself more handsome. Meanwhile in the Ventura Mansion, Aria is talking with her brother, they where like arguing over something. "Brother it is just a friendly dinner, and beside I think he is a good and decent man. He actually works as a secretary in the K.L conglomerate. Isn''t that the company which bloomed in just two years since it became public." Aria said, she was trying to make some good points for Louise to her brother and so that Kier would also permit her to go to the newly built restaurant. "Yeah right, just a friendly dinner and what happens next? He well eventually court you because you are beautiful, you are good looking just like me Aria. I will not permit you to go with him without baby Ayesha by your side." what Kier said made Aria rolled her eyes. "What a narcissistic person" Aria thought to herself. "Why are you so protective of me? I''m already nineteen brother. I''ll be turning twenty next year. Can''t I do what I want? I just want to try the foods in the newly built restaurant not far from our house." she reasoned out still hoping that her brother would say yes. "You are my baby piggy-elfy sister, its normal for me to be protective towards you." Kier reasoned out. "Besides people would also think that you are not a teen because of your height." he joked. "YAHHHHHH" Aria shouted. "I DON''T HAVE A BROTHER LIKE YOU, YOU COWARD." she added. Kier just laugh on the other line, how he loves teasing his sister. "I''m just kidding don''t take it by heart Aria, this is how I express my brotherly side to you. And you will not go to that dinner of yours okay." Kier uttered. "Fine I will not go but you must pay me. Just add it into my bank savings thank you." Aria lied, she will not let this opportunity to try new dishes and beside the side dishes of that restaurant are free. "Okay, I trust your words Aria. I''ll hung up now, tell mom and dad I love them. I love you to baby sister. Bye" Kier said and he ended the call. Aria stood up from her bed and she rushed towards the bathroom, she will have a dip first in her bathtub before taking a shower. She''s very excited to go to the restaurant, just thinking the foods made her mouth water. ----- Meanwhile in France, the young man was busy reading some documents when he heard a knock from the door, a tall man wearing a glasses and holding a planner came in, it was the young man''s secretary. "Young Master, the madam called, she told me if you could possibly meet her later." the young man''s secretary said. He placed his pen down and looked at his secretary. "It''s still early, why is she awake already. Inform her that I will meet that girl later." the young man said. His secretary bow down and was about to go out when he spoke again. "How is he?" his secretary turned to face him and he spoke. "He is doing well Young master but there is still no sign of him waking up." "Continue monitoring him and make sure that he will wake up someday." he uttered and gesture the man in front of him to go out. The young man look at the picture frame placed on his table. "I''m so sorry." the only word he could utter while looking at the person in the picture. Chapter 40 - Study Session Louise arrived earlier at the restaurant first, he looked for a table and waited for a couple of minutes before Aria popped inside the restaurant''s entrance. Louise waved his hand when he saw that Aria was looking around. Aria approached him and apologize to him for being a bit late. "Did I made you wait for to long Mr. Severin?" Aria asked as she sat on the opposite chair. "No no I just got here Ms. Ventura and you can call me Louise. Mr. Severin is to formal for me." Louise lied. "Oh thank you for accompanying me tonight Louise, shall we order now." Aria said and being a gentleman, Louise called the waiter. The waiter approached the two and gave the menu. When Aria said her orders, Louise was utterly shocked that it made his mouth hung open for a couple of seconds while listening to Aria''s orders. "Sir may I take your order?" the waiter approached the stunned Louise. "Just give me your best dishes tonight" he said and closed the menu book and handed it back to the waiter. He glanced at Aria, "How can this little girl in front of me eat so much, does she not care about her figure?" he thought to himself and as if Aria heard his thought, she spoke. "I really don''t care about my figure, if I''m quite chubby or not as long as the people around me, loves me because I''m me. I don''t care if they would judge me cause I''m still a nineteen and I''m a student. I need to feed my body with foods cause I''m using my brain everyday. I don''t want to change myself just to please others. " Aria spoke. "But don''t get me wrong, I still take care of my body, I make sure that I''m still healthy and normal and not over weight. And I do some exercise sometimes when I feel doing it cause I''m afraid that my brother would nag at me." she added. Louise just stared at Aria''s cute chubby cheeks. He wants to pinch those cheeks. "Well I don''t mind you being chubby." he suddenly blurted out. Aria was about to comment when their food arrive and her eyes sparkled when she saw the delicious and tasty foods in front. Louise just let out a small giggle as he watched the adorable woman infront of him. "Let''s dig in cause I think you are really starving." he uttered and Aria just nodded and started munching her food. While Aria and Louise are enjoying themselves eating and talking to each other in the restaurant. Ayesha and Knight were also arguing about what to study first. "Brother Liwie, we should study finance first." Ayesha said as she placed her notes for finance in front. "Let''s study english first baby because it''s much easier and we could finish it in no time." Knight uttered as he pick the book and place it on top of Ayesha''s notes. "But, I want to study finance first." Ayesha said again as she tried to get the notes but Knight is just to strong. "No more buts let''s study this first. I''m your tutor tonight so listen to me, don''t be stubborn Ayesha." Knight strictly said as he put his reading glasses on. "Okay fine teacher." Ayesha just pouted her lips which is a temptation for Knight. They started studying the english subject, from time to time, Ayesha would ask Knight some questions that she don''t really get and Knight would patiently answer her. In the middle of the study session, Ayesha put down her pen and she faced Knight and asked him. "Are you going to sleep here?" she asked without thiking of any malice on her question. Knight looked at her with amusement, "Yes I will sleep here in your room, I want to cuddle with you tonight, its quite cold." he joked but to his surprise, Ayesha said okay and Knight just flicked Ayesha''s forehead and instructed her to go back in studying her notes which she obliged while touching her forehead and massaging it. He''s trying his best not to do anything on Ayesha that''s why he just focused his attention to the book his reading. "This study session is a torture for me." he thought. Chapter 41 - Waffles Eight-thirty p.m, it''s been one hour and thirty minutes since Ayesha and Knight started their study session. "Brother Liwie can we move to finance now?" Ayesha asked, her head is spinning because of reading some english novels that have deep words. "Have you finish doing what I told you?" Knight asked her. "Uhmm not yet but my head spinning already because of this words" Ayesha reasoned out. Knight just let out a sigh and spoke "Okay fine let''s go to your favorite subject now." Knight gave Ayesha her notes in finance and also some questionnaires that Knight made while Ayesha was studying the English subject. "I''ve made some pointers here and here and also answer that questionnaire after your done reviewing, don''t take a peak on the questions understand?" he strictly asked and Ayesha just smiled at him. "Are you hungry?" he asked the woman who is sitting beside him. "A bit, I want to eat chocolate waffles." Ayesha uttered while she was concentrating on her notes. "Okay, I''ll cook for you." Knight said. "Don''t peak at the questionnaires okay." he added before going out. As Knight, strode down the stairs, the elders are still wide awake and are talking in the loving room. Ayesha''s mother saw Knight and asked him. "Is your study session done already? Are you going home now Knight?" Knight stopped when he step on the last stair case. "Not yet Mom, I''m just gonna make some waffles for Ayesha, she''s hungry." Knight replied in a very polite tonight. "You can ask the servants to cook the waffles." Ayesha''s mom said. "No need mom, I want to cook it by myself because my wife will be the one who will eat it." Knight''s reply made Ayesha''s father laugh. "Oh hahaha my son-in-law is really capable and thoughtful." Ayesha''s father uttered proudly. "And I''m going to stay here for tonight." Knight declared and excused himself. "I wonder if they will make my a great grandchild now." Ayesha''s grandmother uttered while she is looking at the young man''s back who just entered the kitchen and Ayesha''s mother became excited except for the two men whose faces can''t be painted. After a couple of minutes, Knight came back with a plate on his hand. He placed the plate in the spot where there is no papers. He then keep all Ayesha''s notes and gave the waffles to her. "Eat first before you continue studying." Knight said and he sat down to his chair. "Are you not hungry?" Ayesha questioned him when she saw that he only got one plate and there are ten waffles in it. "I''m also hungry." Knight lied, he had already eaten so many waffles while he was cooking a while ago. "But if my wife would feed me, I''ll gladly accept it." he added while still looking at some papers. Ayesha''s face became red and hot for a bit because of what Knight said. She slice a big waffle and dip it into the sauce. "Say ahhhhh." she said and faced Knight, she shoved the waffle into Knight''s mouth. "It''s tastier and delicious when you feed it to me." Knight''s comment made Ayesha''s face redder and hotter. "But it would be even tastier and more delicious if you would use your mouth in feeding me." he added not minding Ayesha''s glares towards him. "Are you flirting with me Mr. Salvador?" Ayesha asked as he face Knight. "Why? Can''t I flirt with my own wife?" Knight asked. "But I''m your student now."Ayesha reasoned out. "Yeah you are my student and you are also my wife that''s why I can flirt with you and nobody else." Knight commented and Ayesha just looked at him with her eyes wide open, she cannot believe his words. "Arrgghhh I can''t stand this man. I won''t ask him to cook waffles for me in the future." Ayesha thought and she just went back to munching her food. Knight let out a giggle. "Say you want me to flirt with other women?" Knight suddenly asked. Ayesha just looked at him and spoke "You can flirt every woman you want." her words made Knight laughed even more. "You said that I could flirt every woman I want but you are already killing the waffles. I didn''t now that my wife is a jealous woman." Knight commented as he wipe the tears in his eyes because of laughing to much. "I could kill you now using this fork Mr. Salvador if you won''t stop teasing me." Ayesha stated as she held the fork up towards Knight''s face. But the young man just laughed at his wife''s gestures. "You are so adorable my little wife." he stated while pinching Ayesha face and once again opened his mouth indicating that he wants to be feed again by his wife. Chapter 42 - Pillow Fight "Baby feed me some more waffles." Knight pleaded but Ayesha just took the plate away from him. "No more waffles for you Mister! I only have two more left and you wanted to have some. You have already eaten five of my waffles a while ago. Go to the kitchen and make some for yourself." Ayesha glared at Knight while she is protecting her waffles. Knight just looked at her in amusement. "I didn''t now she could be this greedy when it comes to waffles." he thought and let Ayesha eat the two more remaining waffles. He just can''t offend his wife, she might go wild if he would steal her waffles away. After Ayesha finished eating the two remaining waffles, Knight stood up and got the plate, he instructed her to go back in studying her finance subject before he went out to go to the kitchen to place the plate and to get some milk for Ayesha. The elders are no longer staying at the living when Knight went down. He just proceeded to the kitchen and prepare some milk for Ayesha, he then went back to the room and saw that Ayesha is frowning while looking at the questionnaires. "Is it hard?" Knight asked as he close the door. Ayesha looked at him and nodded. "Here drink some milk." he handed Ayesha her milk. He waited for Ayesha to finish drinking the milk while he looked at the questionnaire. Ayesha place down the glass and she looked at Knight, as if saying that she needs help. Knight sat on his chair and drag his chair closer to Ayesha. "You can find the answer for this in your notes." he took Ayesha''s notes and look for the answer. "Here." he pointed when he found the answer. "Ohh!" Ayesha exclaimed. "Thank You baby" Ayesha uttered when she saw the answer. Knight looked at Ayesha, "What did you just say?" he asked and then he realized that he is very close to her right now. Ayesha realized what she have just uttered, "Nothing. You didn''t hear anything." she stated without looking at Knight, afraid that he might see her red face. She went back in answering the questionnaire. Knight could feel that his wife is a little embarrassed, which he find so adorable. He stood up, "I will take some shower first. You finish that." he said and got his duffle bag and went to the bathroom. He came prepared, of course he had already planned that he would stay for tonight. Ayesha just focused her mind on the questionnaire, "You didn''t uttered those word Ayesha. You only said that out of nowhere because he always call you in that endearment." she thought to herself. "Now clear your mind and focus on studying, this is for your midterm exam." she added and tried to clear her mind but she failed, she kept on thinking of the word she just blurted earlier. Inside the bathroom, Knight who is under the shower is also thinking on the words Ayesha said and how adorable she looks when she''s shy, a smile formed on his lips. He rinsed the soap from his body and he then turned the shower off. He took his towel and dried himself. He went out from the bathroom. Ayesha looked at him, her face became red again. "You.. you... you. Wear your shirt mister." Ayesha blurted when she saw that Knight was only wearing his pants, and his topless, showing off his perfectly toned body. Her eyes wandered on the young man''s body, "Done checking me out? My wife." Knight teased. "Who said I''m checking you out." Ayesha denied. "Oh you weren''t checking me out? But you were drooling and your face is saying that you wanted to molest me." Knight stated as he jokingly covered his upper body and teasingly looked at his wife. "I''m not drooling and I don''t want to molest you." Ayesha protested and throw the pillow which was placed on her ??p towards Knight and Knight had the time to avoid the pillow. "Oh you want some pillow fight." he uttered and took a pillow on Ayesha bed and throw it right unto Ayesha face. "Yahhhhhhhh!" Ayesha shouted and stood up, she also got a pillow and hit Knight so many times. "Hey! Hey that hurts." Knight wh?n?d but still he hit Ayesha on the back and Ayesha hit him back on the arm. He laughed so hard when he hit her on the face again. The two of them had a pillow fight for a couple of minutes before Ayesha surrendered because her arms are already aching. "You put some shirt on." she clearly said with authority and went back to the study table. "Yes Boss." Knight made a salute and put a shirt on. He then took the pillows which was scattered on the floor and arranged Ayesha''s bed. He sat down and stared at Ayesha''s back, thinking that he felt so contented being with her, and doing some childish things with her, that once in his life he had never done and experienced. He got his phone and texted Louise, "Check the house tomorrow if it is already fully furnished." he sent the message and went back to Ayesha''s study table. Chapter 43 - Only a Towel Ayesha yawned and Knight saw it, he then checked his watch. It''s already ten-thirty in the evening, she have been studying for too long now. "Let''s sleep now, you are already sleepy and beside we have already studied two of your subject." Knight suggested as he collected the notes. "But we still have time, I can still study." Ayesha uttered as she yawned again. "No baby! You need to sleep now, you are already sleepy, I can see it from your eyes. We can finish this tomorrow baby, tomorrow''s Sunday, I don''t have anything to do." he said not knowing that there''s a pile of documents waiting to be signed by him. Ayesha just nodded and stood up, "I''ll just washed up for a bit." she said and went inside the bathroom. Knight neatly organized Ayesha''s study table. He then took the glass which was used for Ayesha''s milk, and went out to go to the kitchen. He washed the glass and poured some water for himself. After drinking he went back to Ayesha''s room, and when he opened the door, he saw his wife came out from the bathroom, and only a towel is wrapped around her body. Both of them were stunned for a while. Knight''s eyes wandered throught Ayesha''s face to her neck and the to her shoulder, he gulped for three times and Ayesha managed to speak. "I forgot my clothes, can you please go out for a sec? I''ll just changed" Ayesha shyly said in a low voice her face became redder and Knight immediately went out from the room. His heart is beating so fast, he remembered how shiny and clear Ayesha''s skin is, by just thinking of it made him feel hot. "Fuck Knight, control yourself." he thought to himself and he thought of many happy things just to calm his self. "Brother Liwie you can come in now." Ayesha shouted and Knight slowly opened the door and entered. She saw that Ayesha was already tucked in her bed. "I can sleep on the sofa bed." Knight uttered and Ayesha just looked at him. "We can share in my bed, it''s big the two of us can fit in hear. The sofa is to small for you and besides I can''t let you sleep in the floor or in the guestrooms, they are still dusty cause you didn''t informed me this morning that you will sleep." Ayesha muttered and she place a pillow between them. "There, I place a line for us, so this serves as our boundery. I know you are not comfortable sleeping with someone." Ayesha added. "You don''t know how much I wanted to cuddle with you right now Ayesha." Knight thought to himself. Brushing off what he is thinking, he just laid beside Ayesha. "Good Night brother Liwie." Ayesha said as she closed her eyes. "Good night baby." Knight replied as he went closed and gave Ayesha a good night kiss in the forehead before he went to sleep. ------ Morning came and Ayesha felt comfortable hugging her pillow. Knight on the other hand is enjoying what he saw when he woke up. The pillow that serves as their line is already gone now and Ayesha looks like a koala as she tightly hugs the young man beside her. "She even looks adorable while sleeping." Knight thought as he looked at Ayesha face. He also wrapped his arms around his wife''s waist and he continue staring at her face, memorizing and familiarizing every inch. Ayesha opened her eyes, still adjusting her eyesight to the brightness. "Good Morning baby. Did you enjoy cuddling me?" Knight''s question made Ayesha finally woke up. She looked at the man who is already and inch closer to her. She looked at their position, "Oh my gosh, I''m so sorry." she was about to separate herself but Knight hugged her even tighter. "Uhmmm... Brother Liwie you can let go of me now." she added. "No! I still want to cuddle with you. Let''s go back to sleep, it''s still early." Knight uttered and he closed his eyes again, pretending to be asleep. Ayesha slowly took Knight''s arm hoping that she could be free but to her dismay, Knight is much stronger than him. She didn''t have a choice but to grant what his husband and professor wanted. "It''s just a simple cuddle." she thought to herself. She stared at Knight''s face, this is her second time seeing his face upclose. "You were still the same when you where younger Brother Wiewie." Knight opened his eyes when he heard what Ayesha just uttered and Ayesha was shocked when she saw him opened his eyes and stared at her. "Did he heard me?" she thought trying to hide her nervousness. "You''re not asleep?" she asked as she was trying to calm herself. "You just called me Brother Wiewie." Knight suspiciously said. "Oh you just heard it wrong Brother Liwie." Ayesha lied, she don''t want him to know that she have recovered some of her memories where Knight was part of it. "What I heard is right Ayesha, you called me using that nickname you gave me when you where still eleven. Do you remember me now?" he asked her. Ayesha just nodded, there is no use of hiding him the truth that she actually remembered him. Knight gave her a tight hug. "Baby thank God you actually remember me now. When did you regain your memories?" he asked her again. "When I was hospitalized, I just remebered the memories which you are part of it." Ayesha honestly answered and Knight gave her a kiss in the forehead and hug her tightly. He is just happy that she finally remembered him. "Can we separate now Brother Wiewie?" Ayesha asked. "Not yet! I just want to cuddle with you knowing that you remember me makes me happy. I love you so much baby." Knight uttered and the two of them stayed for a few minutes just hugging each other, well it was only Knight who is hugging Ayesha. Chapter 44 - Do what? A luxury car is parked in front of a five star hotel. The owner of the car went out and tossed his car key to the valet. He then entered the hotel and wandered his eyes. He strode his long legs towards a table near the piano, as he walked, he is giving off an aura of a superstar. "Did I made you wait for too long?" the young man asked the beautiful woman as soon as he reached the table. "No you didn''t I just got here also." the woman replied. "Please have a seat." the woman added and the man did what she said." "Shall we order first." the young man said and called the water. "Just serve me your special dish today" the young man said to the waiter and he face the woman, "You can order anything you want." he muttered. "I won''t be staying for to long. I just wanted to tell you that I don''t want to marry you, I already have someone I love." the woman stood up. "Just tell your mom that both of us don''t agree to this arrange marriage, I know you also have someone you love. If you''ll excuse me, I still have a flight to catch up." the woman walked away from the man. The waiter is still standing at the side, "Sir would you still consider your order." the waiter asked politely. "Yes please." the young man acted naturally as if nothing had happened. The waiter bowed to him and walked away. The young man felt relieve when the young woman said that she won''t agree to this marriage. ------ Ayesha was struggling from Knight''s embrace, "Brother Liwie, do you have a plan to get up?" Ayesha spoke as she looked at her wall clock, they have been staying in her bed for almost two hours now. "Let''s do something" Knight said in a husky voice as he whispered in Ayesha ear. "Do what?" Ayesha asked nervously as she imagine some wild things that made her face blushed. "Why are you blushing? What are you thinking baby?" Knight was grinning as he asked her. "I''m blushing because it''s so hot. The comforter is to thick and your hugging me tightly." she reasoned out. "Yeah your right it''s totally hot, let''s make it even more hotter." Knight blew her ears. He is teasing her again. "Let go of me you pervert" Ayesha struggled and she successfully broke free from Knight''s embrace. She stood up and immediately run towards the bathroom and locked herself in. Knight was laughing to his heart content. "I was just teasing you. I didn''t know what you were thinking when I said let''s do something, I only wanted to imply is that let''s do something, like a picnic later." Knight shouted as he continued laughing. "It''s not funny you pervert." Ayesha shouted back. "Baby let''s go to a picnic later okay. Now take some morning shower, I''ll just bring your breakfast here." He said to Ayesha and went out. When he arrived at the dining table, Knight saw the elders still eating while they are talking. "Today is Sunday, let''s go to the church and attend a mass." Grandma Alicia uttered. Knight approached the elders and he spoke. "Good Morning." Knight happily greeted the elders. The elders where wondering why Knight was so happy. "Did you hit the jackpot last night? Am I gonna expect some grandchildren?" Grandma Alicia asked. And the two Gonzales men looked at Knight, they are almost trying to kill him with their dagger like gaze. "No Grandma! Nothing happened last night, we just went to sleep." Knight answered the old lady as he prepared his and Ayesha''s breakfast. "How I wish something had happened last night." he shamelessly thought. "Why are you so happy?" Grandpa asked as he looked at Knight. "Oh I was just teasing Ayesha and she got mad." Knight casually replied. "I''ll go back now to Ayesha''s room, we will just eat there. And I will also take Ayesha to some picnic later." Knight said and excused himself. The elders just looked at the young man''s back as he disappear from the dining area. "Kids this days." Ayesha''s father said and they all went back to eating their food peacefully. Knight went inside in Ayesha''s room, not seeing Ayesha roaming around he thought that she was probably still in the bathroom. He took his phone and texted Louise, "Before you look at the house, please prepare some dishes and place it on a picnic basket. Also don''t forget the picninc blanket. Just asked one of my bodyguards to deliver the basket and blanket here in the Gonzales residence." after typing he immediately sent the message. And Ayesha also went out from the bathroom, only wearing a loose shirt and a short. "Let''s eat now." Knight said and gestured Ayesha to sit beside him. "I''ll feed you right now cause you fed me last night. I want to experience feeding my wife." he uttered and the two of them eat, Knight is feeding Ayesha while still teasing her. Chapter 45 - Rain "Ayeshaaaaa!" Aria shouted on the other line. "Hey don''t shout. I''m not deaf you pig." Ayesha said as she massage her ear. "Sorry! Can I come to your house right now?" I have to tell you something." Aria asked while cutting her nails. "Sorry, I''ll be on the road any minute now. I''m just waiting for Brother Liwie to finish loading the things we need." Ayesha uttered as she went inside the car. "Where are you going without me?" Aria questioned. Ayesha could imagine Aria''s pouted lips right now. "He asked me to have a picnic with him and I don''t know where are we going." Ayesha answered as she wear her seatbelt. "Okay enjoy your pre-honeymoon with your husband. I''ll just tell it to you, tomorrow morning in the classroom. Bue Ayesha. I love you." "Bye. I love you too." she answered the door in the driver''s seat opened. Knight went inside and sat down, he looked at Ayesha, and mouthed, "Who are you talking to?". Ayesha answered him, "Aria." Knight just nodded and started the car''s engine and he drove off. "Where are we going Brother Liwie?" Ayesha asked curiously. "It''s a secret. You can sleep first, this will be a long ride. I''ll just wake you up when we arrive." Knight said to Ayesha, his eyes were fixed on the road. He needs to be careful in driving because Ayesha is with him. "I''ll sleep later." Ayesha said and took her phone from her bag. "I''ll play for a bit." she added as she tap on her phone. "What game are you gonna play?" Knight asked curiously. "Mobile Legends." she replied. "I had it downloaded and I also made my own account. It was a thrilling game." Ayesha added and she began playing. Knight didn''t bother talking to Ayesha, he don''t want to disturb her. After two hours of playing, Ayesha doze off. Knight place a blanket on Ayesha''s ??p cause she was only wearing a short, he also lowered down the aircon''s temperature for her. It took them four hours on the road, and finally Knight parked his car in front of a very simple house. He got off from the car and opened the passenger''s door. "Ayesha wake up we have already arrived." Ayesha opened her eyes and rub them. "Where are we?" she asked when she saw the house behind Knight. "Welcome to my private house." Knight said as he ?ssisted Ayesha out from the car. "Brother Liwie, you have a house in the mountain?" Ayesha was amazed, all she could see is trees and mountains which surrounds the only house standing. "I guess so." Knight just answered and took all the things out from the car, Ayesha also helped him. They went inside the house, Ayesha was more amazed when she saw what''s inside the house. All the interior are made from wood even the things from the furnitures to the kitchen utensils. "Where do you cook? Do you use any gas? Cause I can''t see any electric stove here." Ayesha said. "No! I don''t use gas or electric stove to cook, I purposely built a small dirty kitchen over there." Knight pointed on the window and Ayesha saw another house, but it''s little bit smaller than the first house and it also have a terrace on it with table and chairs. "I have to do some fire building in order to cook my own food." Knight added as he place all the things in the living room. Ayesha was amazed on how simple her professor is despite being raised in a rich family, the both of them have and share some similarities. "Come I''ll bring you to the picnic spot." Knight said as he grab the picnic basket and blanket on his left hand and the grab Ayesha''s hand. They went out using the back door, Knight and Ayesha walked for ten minutes before they arrived at the picnic spot. The place was filled with different kinds of flowers and there is a stream down, it is a very peaceful place. Knight laid the blanket and placed all the foods that Louise prepared. He sat down and he grabbed Ayesha''s hand, Ayesha was startled for a bit because of what he did. Now Ayesha is sitting between Knight''s legs and Knight snaked his arms on Ayesha''s waist, he is now back hugging her. "I love you." he whispered to her ears. Ayesha could feel that somethings is stirring inside her. She could feel some tingling sensation on her stomach. "I will wait patiently for your reply Ayesha. Just take your time." Knight whispered again. Knight is feeding Ayesha with so many foods and Ayesha also feed Knight with some grapes. The two of them sat in that position for a while, just feeding each other. Knight stood up and dragged Ayesha towards the stream, Ayesha protested but he is just to strong for her. When they arrived at the stream, without any warning Knight splash Ayesha some water, "Brother Liwieee!" Ayesha shouted. "How dare you." she added and also had her revenge. Both of them are now wet when it suddenly rained, "Oh may gosh!" Ayesha exclaimed and Knight dragged her again towards the house. "Brother Liwie we left the picnic basket and the foods." Ayesha uttered. "There are wild animals here, the bunnies would probbaly eat them, we can just get the basket and blanket back tomorrow. I don''t want you to catch some cold and fever because you were drenched in the rain." Knight replied and he opened the door. Knight looked at Ayesha, she looks adorable in his eyes just like a little bunny shivering from the cold. And he could clearly what''s inside her shirt, it made him his lose control of his d?s?r?s because of the woman in front of him. "Just this once" he thought and grabbed Ayesha by the arm and claimed her lips. Ayesha was taken a back by what Knight did, she was stunned. Knight''s kisses was slow and passionate at first and then it intensifies, as if pouring all his frustrations and d?s?r?s into it. Ayesha was drawned to his kisses, all she could do is closed her eyes and respond with the same intensity. She could feel all his feeling through that kiss. Chapter 46 - Clothes Ayesha woke up in an unfamiliar room, she sat down as she tried to remember where she was, "Oh right, I''m here at Brother Liwie''s private house." she thought and roamed her eyes aroung the room. The room was designed perfectly, the walls where painted in a mint green color and the furnitures are plainly white. "How did I end up here?" she said out loud as if asking herself. "As I remember, I was with Brother Liwie in the kitchen and we were drenched because of the rain and we were.... Oh may!" Ayesha exclaimed loudly when she remembered the kiss part and she immediately checked her body thinking that they might have done "THAT" thing. "But I''m not uhmm." Ayesha didn''t finish talking because the door was suddenly opened by someone, and that someone was no other than Knight who was bringing a tray. "Good Morning Baby" Knight greeted her. "How was your sleep? Did you dream of me?" He asked as he placed down the tray full of foods in the table next to Ayesha''s bed. "My sleep was fine and oh yes I dreamt of you, I was murdering a pervert." Ayesha exclaimed and Knight just laughed. "Uhmm by the way Brother Liwie, how did I end up here, in this room?" Ayesha shyly asked. "Ohh that well while the two of us were passionately kissing last night and I was about to go wild when you suddenly passed out and I carried you here while I was feeling a sharp pain somwhere in my body." Knight shamelessly said that it made Ayesha cover her face when she got where he felt pain and she just can''t take how bold this man''s words are. "And I also changed your clothes." Knight playfully said while grinning at Ayesha. Ayesha just looked at him with eyes wide open and so as her mouth. "You...you.." Ayesha uttered as she wrapped the blanket around her body. "Oh don''t worry baby I didn''t touch anything, I only looked at it." Knight shamelessly teased Ayesha. Ayesha''s face became very red like a tomato. "YOU PERVERT!" Ayesha shouted and throw a pillow on Knight. "Hey baby calm down, I was just joking. I didn''t see anything, I closed my eyes while changing you. I don''t want you to catch a fever or a cold that''s why I didn''t have a choice but to change your clothes. But baby I swear I didn''t took a peak, I still respect you." Knight said as he avoided the pillow that Ayesha is throwing to him. "Really you didn''t see anything?" Ayesha already calm down. "Yes baby I didn''t see anything. I swear to God." Knight said. "Now eat you breakfast, I already called Aria and said that you will be absent today. We were supposed to go home last night but it rained and you pass out." Knight muttered as he placed the tray on Ayesha''s bed. Ayesha looked at the foods in front of her, her tummy started to grumble and she started munching her food. "This is heaven." Ayesha thought, like Aria, Ayesha is also a fooddie but she didn''t like to show it to others but she shows it only if she''s with Aria. "I''ll just take some shower." Knight said and was about to enter the bathroom when Ayesha spoke. "Bring some clothes Brother Liwie. I don''t want to see your fats." Ayesha said as she finish off the meat on a bone while looking at Knight. "Hey baby this is could Abs." Knight uttered as he pointed on his stomach. "Yeah yeah whatever just bring some clothes inside." Ayesha uttered as she rolled her eyes. But Knight didn''t listen to her instead he continued speaking, "And this is could muscles." He added while showing off his biceps. "And you look like a Chow-chow dog while biting that bone. And you really look adorable." Knight immediately went inside afraid that Ayesha might throw some pillow on him again. "What Chow-chow? Did he saw me as a lion in a cute version?" Ayesha gritted her teeth in annoyance. "Speaking of dog, let''s adopt one later." Knight''s head popped out in the bathroom''s door as he suggested that they would adopt a dog. "Okay fine with me." Ayesha said and glared at Knight. "Okay okay" Knight said and closed the door again. And Ayesha went back in munching and savoring the flavor of the food. "He really cooks well." Ayesha thought and looked at the bathroom''s door as her face became red. -------- Aria on the other hand was answering her classmates questions. "Hey Aria where is Goddess Ayesha? It''s her first time being absent." one boy asked. "Oh she is somewhere but I don''t now where exactly is she." Aria boredly answered. "Mr. Salvador is also absent. Are they together? Because I saw during Ayesha''s party they were talking sweetly together." a girl suspiciously said. "Oh no no.. You saw wrong." Aria denied. "I think Mr. Salvador is handling some matters on his family''s business, you know his the only child of the Salvador family." Aria said and another student was about to ask her a question when someone called Aria. "Aria someone''s looking for you." the student said and Aria excused herself and stood up. When she reached the door, she saw Louise holding a box. "Louise, what are you doing here?" she asked the man who look so dashing in front of her. "Oh I just wanted to give you this." Louise handed Aria the box and Aria receive it. "Open it when you reached your seat, I''ll go now." Louise said and bid Aria goodbye. Aria also wave her hand and watched the man''s figure getting far away from her. Chapter 47 - Got you a bunny Aria sat back to her chair and she opened the box that Louise gave to her a while ago. "Chocolates?" she thought when she saw what''s inside the box. Aria flipped the box cover hoping that there is a written message and her hope is right. "I hope you like it. It''s a personally hand made chocolates, I made so many last night and I thought that I should give you some." - L Aria smiled when she read the message. She took one chocolate and shove it into her mouth, the chocolate melted and she could taste a caramel flavor in it. "Not bad it''s actually delicious." she thought and keep the box to her bag. Mean while in Knight''s private house which is located somewhere in the mountain away from the city noise. Ayesha is munching and savoring the last waffle she had when the bathroom''s door opened. "Are you done?" Knight asked Ayesha as he went out from the bathroom. He was already dressed up, a plain black shirt and a short. Ayesha nooded, "The food was so delicious especially the waffles." she commented. "I''m much more delicious than that baby." Knight jokingly commented and Ayesha just glared at him, he just let out a laugh and spoke again. "You should take a shower now. I''ll just washed this." he collected the tray and was about to go out when Ayesha spoke. "Brother Liwie, let''s get the basket and blanket back after I''m done showering." she uttered. "No need baby, I already went back there when you were still sleeping soundly. I got the basket and blanket safe and sound." Knight said. "Oh okay. I''ll just take a cold shower." she uttered again and stood up. "No! You should take a warm shower not cold. And I''ve prepared the bathtub for you to have a short dip." Knight stated and he went out while Ayesha went inside the bathroom. Ayesha''s brother once told Knight about her weird style, that''s why he knew that Ayesha loves dipping in the water with blue roses not red but blue. "He''s quite thoughful." she thought and took a shower and dip her body in the bath tub and closed her eyes feeling a bit relaxed. While Ayesha is taking a bath, Knight is now busy catching some bunnies. Earlier while he was washing the dishes, he took a peak on the window and saw some bunnies roaming around his backyard trying to enter his little garden. An imaginary light bulb lit above his head, he quickly finish washing the dishes and silently went out from the kitchen trying not to make a sound, he approached the bunnies and the catching and running begin. "Hey.. Hey you bunnies could you please leap and run slower." Knight uttered while panting and still he continued chasing the bunnies around his back yard, he''s been running for ten minutes now and he still didn''t catch one. "Come on bunnies, I want to catch one of you so that I could give you to my wife." If Knight''s secretary, Louise would witness how his boss is so passionate in chasing some bunnies, he would be probably dumbfounded and would go berserk that he will throw all the documents to his boss''s face and would shout at him, "HOW CAN YOU BE SO PASSIONATE AND PATIENT IN CHASING BUNNIES BUT YOU CAN''T BE PASSIONATE IN TAKING CARE OF YOU OWN BUSINESS". After twenty minutes of running around and chasing the bunnies who runs and leaps so fast, he finally caught one brown bunny and its quite fat. "Aren''t you a little to cute and to fat. Did you steal your sisters and brothers food?" Knight spoke to the bunny as he ??r?ss its back. "Let''s go see your mommy" he muttered again and then went back inside the house, not minding his disheveled look he went straight to the room and opened the door. Ayesha was combing her hair when she saw the door opened and Knight''s reflection in the mirror popped. She face him with eyes wide open, "What happened to you? You looked so messed up." Ayesha is shocked to see Knight''s messed up look, she got up and went to Knight. "Oh I got you a bunny." he said innocently and gave Ayesha the bunny who still looks scared. Ayesha stared at the poor little bunny. "You look like that" Ayesha pointed Knight''s disheveled look. "Because you were chasing bunnies for me?" she added while taking the bunny from Knight''s hand. Knight just nodded innocently. Ayesha just stared at Knight while feeling the tingling sensation in her stomach. "This man never fails to amuse me. And I never thought that he could act so childish despite strict appearance when he is in school. " she thought and turned her back, trying to hide her giddiness from him. "You should go and change your clothes now. You said that we will adopt a dog today. And let''s also go to the vet, so that this poor little bunny could have a check up." Ayesha walked towards the bed, "And thank you for the bunny." she shyly uttered while looking at Knight. Knight just smiled at her and immediately followed what Ayesha instructed. "Aren''t you the cutest little thing." Ayesha is now petting the bunny and it has calm down a little. Knight saw how happy Ayesha is, his hard work have been paid off because he saw her smile. Chapter 48 - You shameless pervert "Did you place everything in the backseat?" Ayesha asked Knight when he got inside the car. "Yes" Knight replied. "Did you not forget anything." he asked Ayesha back as he revive the car''s engines, Ayesha shook her head, "I didn''t forgot anything." she answered and Knight drove. "By the way Brother Liwie, I''ve obeserved that your house was clean when we arrived yesterday. Do you have a caretaker?" Ayesha asked. "Yes I have, they just live down the road. You didn''t see their house yesterday because you were asleep." Knight answered as he looked at Ayesha. "You can now watch the scenery, you missed it yesterday." Knight added as he look back at the road. Ayesha watched the scenery outside, she even open the window. The fresh breeze of the wind gently touch her face, she could smell the fragrance of the flower when they passed by a field full of flowers. Ayesha raised the bunny she was holding and both of them are feeling the freshness of the air. "I could live here forever." Ayesha said out of nowhere. "Well we could have our honeymoon here." Knight replied. "Who said we will have a honeymoon? In your dreams." Ayesha said and turned her back from Knight. "Why can''t we? Isn''t that what couples do after there marriage, they would go on a honeymoon. Don''t they go out of the country to visit other places for their honeymoon?" Knight stated. "Are you thinking of other things when I said the word "Honeymoon" Ayesha" he asked her suspiciously. "I''m not!" Ayesha defended and denied. "Why are you so defensive?" Knight asked Ayesha who is still facing the window and trying to keep a very large distance to Knight. "I''m not defensive. I only said that we can''t go on a honeymoon after the wedding because I still have class and you need to work." Ayesha reasoned out still looking at the window. "But the wedding is held on a Saturday baby, we have a day to "EXPLORE" some other "PLACES" here." Ayesha''s face became red when she heard Knight emphasizes the words explore and shameless. "What are you thinking Ayesha? Have you gone mad or did you actually get infected by this man beside you?" Ayesha thought as she looked at Knight who is acting as if hid words don''t have double meaning. "I prefer staying at my room after the wedding." Ayesha uttered not thinking that her words made Knight''s mind work. Knight is grinning from ear to ear as he took a peak on Ayesha who is watching the scenery outside. "Perfect suggestion baby, we could stay in your room all day instead of going out. Right let''s spend our honeymoon inside your room. You are really smart baby, we can also save money." Knight uttered and it made Ayesha turn her head to look at him. "Excuse me Mister Salvador, Me, Myself and I is the only person who is allowed to stay in my room for that they." Ayesha clearly stated as she grit her teeth in annoyance. "Can his shamelessness be upgraded into another level?" she thought while stroking the bunny on her hand. "Why can''t I be allowed inside your room? I''m your husband! And besides we will only play some games." Knight uttered. "Well if you want a game that could make us both feel exercise, I don''t mind doing "that" thing with you baby." he shamelessly added while grinning at Ayesha and it made Ayesha freaked out. "You damn shameless pervert. How can you freely utter those words in front of me." she said while hitting Knight using a bottle of water she got from somewhere. "Hey hey stop! I''m driving, I don''t want us to die. I still want to experience doing it with you." Knight said as he parked the car on the side of the road. Ayesha freaked out even more. "Shut up you shameless pervert." she uttered and hit him again. "I was just teasing you, you don''t need to exert so much effort." Knight said as he took the bottle of water from Ayesha''s hand and tossed it in the back seat. "You only need to make some effort when we are in bed baby." in a husky voice he whispered into Ayesha''s ears , he is teasing her again and he only receive a brain wrecking hit from Ayesha, well she only used her shoes to hit him. "Fuck did I got myself an amazon wife?Knight thought as he rubbed his head. "What material is used to make her shoes, it was actually hard. God my head hurts" he looked at Ayesha who is actually glaring at him. "If onky looks could kill, I''m probably died now." he is still rubbing his head. "Wife please have mercy on your husband. I was just kidding but also honestly I want to do that with you." he uttered and Ayesha only glared at him. "Your illness is really hopeless Salvador. You damn shameless pervert." Ayesha said and she just turned her back again and closed her eyes. She doesn''t want to talk to Knight because she could already feel that something''s changing within her. "Fuck I''m a poor husband here." Knight thought and started the car''s engine again and drove. Chapter 49 - Jealous The car stopped infront of a pet shop store, Knight looked at the woman beside him, "Ayesha we have arrived now." Knight is pinching Ayesha''s cheeks, trying to wake her up. She actually feel asleep and also the bunny is sleeping soundly on her hand. Ayesha opened her eyes and saw that Knight is pinchind her cheeks, "We have already arrive" Knight uttered. Ayesha yawned and spoke, "Wipe my face Brother Liwie" she requested and Knight got a bunch of wipes on his car''s compartment and gladly started wiping his wife''s face. "Do you put some make-up on your face?" Knight asked Ayesha when he saw that their are no make up prducts on the wipes. "Nope I don''t put any make-up on my face! I''m perfectly comfortable when my face is b?r?. I only put make up when there are ocassions that I need to attend to. But don''t get me wrong I do like make-up just like the other girls around my age and I know how to apply them because of Aria. It''s just that make-up makes me feel uncomfortable," Ayesha answered while she let Knight wipe her face. "All done" Knight uttered as he stole a kiss from Ayesha. "That''s my reward for wiping your face." he added and throw the wipes on the small trash bin. "Whatever Salvador!" Ayesha said and rolled her eyes. "Is that how you say thank you to me?" Knight acted as if he''s hurt. "You should reward me with another kiss. I''m hurt now baby" he added and touched his heart. "Psh! Stop acting Salvador, let''s go get a puppy now." Ayesha uttered and she went out from the car first. "I''ll work harder." Knight said to himself and also went out from the car. Together they got inside the pet shop. All the pets from this pet shop are for adoption only. They don''t sell the animals they rescue or the breeders would deliver to them. A girl approached them, "Hello, Good Morning. How may I help you?" she said as she looked at Knight. "We want to adopt a chow-chow" Ayesha said to the girl who is still looking at Knight. "Sorry Sir our last chow-chow was adopted yesterday." the girl answered yet she only had here eyes fixed on Knight''s figure totally ignoring Ayesha''s prescence. Ayesha looked around the pet shop and saw a baby Alaskan Malamute looking at her. "Excuse me Miss, could you please take that dog out?" Ayesha caught te girl''s attention and she pointed at the cage. "Right away Miss." the girl said and got the dog out from its cage and gave it to Ayesha. Ayesha handed Knight the bunny who is already awake and she took the dog. "Aren''t you the cutest thing?" the dog howled as if agreeing to what Ayesha just said. The girl who is taking care of the pet shop is still looking at Knight and it made Ayesha feel annoyed. "Your sister is very lucky to have you as a brother Sir, you gave her a pet dog. I bet the girl you will marry someday is even more luckier." the girl tried to flirt with Knight and it even made Ayesha feel more annoyed. "Hubby we are going to take him." She said sweetly to Knight who is stunned because Ayesha what she just said. Just like Knight''s reaction, the girl was also stunned and even shocked. Knight recovered from being stunned, "As you wish wifey! Miss please immediatekt take care of the papers for the dog adoption, we can wait there." Knight uttered as he pointed the waiting area and the girl finally recovered and said "Right away Sir." She immediately went to the office to release the papers for adoption. "You called me hubby." Knight happily uttered and he looked at Ayesha. "Because she was looking at you Salvador. It made me feel annoyed." Ayesha said while playing at the dog. "You are jealous. Are you know inlove with me?" "Of course not. I''m not jealous, and I''m not inlove with you." Ayesha muttered still looking at the dog. "You are jealous baby." Knight said. "My wife is jealous~, My wife is jealous~" he repeatedly sang while poking Ayesha''s side. "Salvador you''re annoying me. I said I''m not jealous." Ayesha said in an annoyed voice and she went back to look and play with the dog. "Aren''t you the cutest thing. I should name you Kuro" Ayesha said and Knight looked at her and then to the dog. "This dog is stealing my wife''s attention away from. I regretted suggesting to her that we should get a dog." Knight glared at the dog, he is feeling a little bit jealous because of the dog and Ayesha is giving him free kisses while he needs to steal some from her. "You should name him Night as in N.I.G.H.T. so that you could remember me." Knight said and he even spelled it so that Ayesha won''t be confused. "Oh I like that." Ayesha uttered and raised the dog. "Oh God you''re heavy! From now on your name is Night." she kissed the dog''s cheeks. "Fuck I''m getting jealous over that little dog." Knight thought and glared at the poor little dog who might experience his wrath because of jealousy. The girl came out from the office and gave the papers to them. They bid goodbye and went out from the pet shop. "When can I meet a handsome man like him." the girl said dreamily as she watched Knight''s back disaapear from her vision. "Let''s go to the vet Brother Liwie, Night and Light needs to be check." Ayesha is so excited that she hoped in the car first and she took the bunny from Knight''s hand. The alaskan malamute sat properly on Ayesha''s ??p while Ayesha is holding the bunny carefully. "Now I got two rivals for her attention. I regretted catching that bunny and suggesting to have a dog." Knight hopelessly uttered as he went inside the car and drove to his friend''s clinic. Chapter 50 - Sister-in-law They arrived at the clinic and saw that it is closed. Knight took his phone out and dialed a number. He put it on speaker. "Hey Clint buddy! Where are you? I saw that your clinic is closed." Knight asked over the phone. He called his friend who is actually a vet. "I''m at home. I didn''t go to work today. Do you need anything?" A man spoke on the other line. "Yeah! I need a check up for my two new pets. Can I come over to you house now?" Knight said and looked at Ayesha. "Yeah sure! I can spare some time to check on your new pets." the man uttered on the other line. "Okay Good. Thanks buddy." Knight said and ended the call. "Okay let''s have another road trip" Knight exclaimed and drove off. After a twenty minutes drive, they arrived at their destination. Knight parked his car outside his friend''s gate. The house is simply built and there are plants all over the place and the yard is so big. "Knight! Bud!" someone exclaimed and there Ayesha saw a man with a blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes, who just come out from the nowhere and is coming towards their direction. The guy opened the gate and let the two in, Knight and the man hug each other. "Miss you Bro." Knight uttered and separate from the hug. Clint glance at Ayesha, and spoke, "Who is this beautiful lady with you? Clint asked, and glance at the two animals wrapped in Ayesha''s arms, "And what do we have here, a healthy pup and a healthy bunny" he added and looked at Knight. "This is my wife, Ayesha." Knight introduce Ayesha to Clint. "And that two pets are Light and Night." he added. "Ayesha this is Clint my bestfriend slash Brother in New York since birth." Knight introduce Clint to Ayesha as well. Ayesha put Night down and face Clint again, "Pleasure to meet you Mr. Clint" she politely said. "The p???sur? is mine. And please call me Clint. Knight is like a brother to me so you are my sister-in-law. I''ll just call you Ayesha is you won''t mind?" Clint asked Ayesha. "Oh I wouldn''t mind at all." Ayesha replied. Clint bent down and touched little Night. "Did you just adopted this dog?" He asked and Knight answered him, "Yes we just got him and also this bunny." Knight pointed at Light the bunny. "Pepper and Salt come here." Clint called and two Alaskan Malamute came out from his house. "Oh my what a huge dogs." Ayesha exclaimed when she saw two more Alaskan Malamute who came out from the house. The four dogs went to Clint''s sode and they say down, lining up. Little Knight approached the four dogs, as if he was so amazed seeing huge dogs. "This are my dogs, Pepper, Salt, Chilli and Spicies. I got tired of thinking some names for them so I named them like that." Clint said. "They have beautiful amd unique names." Ayesha commented and Clint just smiled at him. "Let''s go inside, I cook some foods because it''s almost lunch time. Let''s eat first before I would check this two up." he started walking towards the house and the two, Knight and Ayesha followed behind him. Even the dogs followed them inside, Ayesha took little Night because there is a stair and his little legs can''t reach them. Ayesha was amazed when she saw how simple Clint''s house is and it all painted in white even the furnitures are all white. "Please have a seat. I''ll just prepare some food for this five dogs and one bunny." Clint uttered as he went inside a room and brought out a cage and five dog bowls. He placed each bowl in a corner and put some dog foods in it. All four dogs started munching their food and little night also followed what the elders are doing. "May I?" Clint asked Ayesha. "Oh sure". Ayesha gave the bunny to Clint and he place him in the cage. He then gave the bunny some vegetable that he have freshly picked a while ago from his garden. "Now it''s time for us to eat our food. Come follow me to the kitchen." Clint said and walked to the kitchen. Knight went to Clint''s side. "How did you manage to live on your own here? As I remember your mom would freak out if you don''t have your bodyguards around you." he started the conversation with Clint. "Well I beg and fooled her." Clint replied and he took a pot a placed it on the table, he opened it and the aroma of the food lingers immediately to the whole kitchen. "How did you fooled her?" Knight curiously asked. Ayesha was just listening to the two, as she inhale the fragrance of the dish that Clint her mouth started to water. "Let''s eat. Ayesha please start digging in." Clint said and he looked at Knight. "Well you know I told her that I will bring my girlfriend when I would go back to New York. And she agreed to me." Clint said and started digging his food also. "Didn''t your mother arranged someone for you already?" Knight asked. "Nah, I''m not gonna marry someone I don''t love and besides I still don''t want to be tied down. I still want to enjoy being a bachelor." Clint replied. "I heard from Louise that you actually transferred to your wife''s school." Clint was referring to Knight as a teacher. They were still trying to hide the fact that Knight is a successful business man. "Yes, so that I could guard her." Knight stated and looked at Ayesha who just rolled her eyes because of what Knight just said. The two men were chatting as they eat and Ayesha was just silently eating her own food. She''s having a feeling that she is in heaven, Clint''s cooking is just superb, just like Knight''s. "How can two man be very talented in cooking. I can only eat but not cook." Ayesha thought to herself as she looked at the two man who''s happily talking. Chapter 51 - Our own babies When they were done eating, Knight volunteered to wash the dishes so that Clint can already check little Night and Light the bunny. "I''ll go with you" Ayesha said and stood up. The two of them went back to the living room while Knight started cleaning the table by putting the leftovers in a container and let it cool-off, he then started wiping the table and putting the dirty plates and utensils to the sink. Then he started washing the dishes while singing. When Ayesha and Clint arrive at the living room, they saw that little Night is sleeping soundly on Pepper''s back. "Well we got a sleeping doggo now." Clint commented and took the bunny on his small room which is a clinic, leaving and not yet disturbing the sleeping puppy. Clint took the bunny out and check started checking it up. "This bunny is healthy, did you also adopt this?" He asked Ayesha as he continue checking the bunny. "No! He actually catch that when we were in his private house." Ayesha answered. "What? He just caught this bunny? Now that''s something unsual for him to do." Clint laughed when he heard that Knight caught the bunny. "This bunny was scared at first, good thing he didn''t die from stress, he will be better if you would pet or cuddle it from time to time so that he would know that he is safe around you and you can talk to him. Animals are intelligent they can understand us" Clint said. "Okay thank you. Can I also bathe him?" Ayesha asked. "They are good at groaming themselves but yes you still can give him a bath. Just put a small amount of water into the tub and put the bunny in." Clint said and put the bunny back into the cage. "Now let''s check that little puppy. Oh and the cage is all yours it''s my girft for the bunny." Clint said and went out from his small clinic. Clint came back, he is now carrying little Night and the three dogs are also following him behind. He started checking the little doggo. "He is also a healthy one. I will list all the things you need for him." He said and wrote something on the paper and gave it to Ayesha. "You can visit me again for Little Night and Light''s check up. I''ll schedule his vaccination and when he will be injected." he added and organize his tools back to it''s shelves. "Okay" Ayesha replied as she took Night and put him down to play with the other dogs. After Clint have finished making his clinic tidy, the two went out and saw Knight sitting on the floor playing with Salt. "You''re a huge d????." Knight said and scratch Salt''s tummy. "Isn''t he adorable?" Clint asked Ayesha while pointing at Knight. "No he is not adorable, he is so annoying." Ayesha said with annoyance and walked towards Knight''s direction. "Oh my someone''s inlove with the childish tycoon." Clint said and laughed, he then walked towards the two lovely couple. Knight stood up when he saw Ayesha and Clint approaching. "You done?" he asked. "Yes, I got you some list for Little Night you can buy it in the pet store." Clint said and looked at Ayesha who looks annoyed. "Okay we will buy that today. So let''s go baby" Knight said to Ayesha as he took Light''s cage, Ayesha carried Night again. Knight faced Clint, "We will not stay for to long buddy, thank you for checking this to up and you sure are invited to the wedding." Knight said. "It''s my duty as a veterinarian Knight, and besides this is not free service you need to pay me." Clint joked. "Sure no proble, I''ll just wire the money to your bank account." Knight said. "Okay, Let me escort you to the gate." Clint walked first and the two couple followed him, even the dogs followed behind. "Say goodbye now to Little Night." Clint said to his dogs when they reached the gate. The dogs howled as if saying goodbye and the little doggo also let out a cute howl. "Thank you so much for the lunch Clint, the foods were so delicious. See you next time." Ayesha said and then she went to the car first, she is still feeling annoyed because of Knight''s prescence. "Thank you buddy, I''ll see you when I have time, let''s bond with Louise." Knight was about to turn around when Clint spoke. "Hey Knight, please don''t keep some secrets to her. I think she is already falling for you but she is still on the stage where she is figuring it out. Once she figured it out, please don''t make decisions that might dissapoint her." he said in a very serious voice. " I know that Clint. I''ll go now. Thanks again buddy." Knight uttered and walked towards the car. Ayesha waved her hand while saying goodbye to Clint. Knight started the car''s engine and drove off. "Now we have two babies." Knight said as he glance at the two animals. Ayesha looked at him. "What babies?" Ayesha asked. "Light and Night! They are now our babies and we are their parents. Or would you rather prefer if we make our own babies?" Knight asked innocently as he took a glance at Ayesha. "You know I''m willing to donate some sp?rm to you." he added. "You... you how can you be so shameless and so bold with your words Salvador." Ayesha glared at Knight. "I can be only shameless and bold towards you my wife." He uttered and wiggled his brows. "Don''t talk to me, I don''t want to talk to you Salvador so better shut your mouth and keep quiet." Ayesha said in an angry voice. Knight just looked at her wondering, "Why is she acting like an angry lioness?" he thought to himself and was about to asked it to Ayesha but decided to better keep his mouth shut. He don''t want to experience another hit from her. Chapter 52 - That time of the month It was already four in the afternoon when they arrived back at the Gonzales Mansion. Ayesha went out from the car first, she was carrying little Night who is asleep again. Knight also went out from the car, he took Light''s cage and made his way inside the mansion. "How was your picnic?" Mrs. Gonzales who just came out from the kitchen asked when she saw Knight coming in. "It was fine mom, I caught some bunny for Ayesha." he said as he raised the bunny for Mrs. Gonzales to have a better look. "What a cute little bunny!" Mrs. Gonzales exclaimed when she saw the brown bunny soundly sleeping. "Are you going to have some dinner here?" Mrs. Gonzales added while she was looking at the bunny. "Yes I will mom but I''m not going to sleep here because I still have to work tomorrow and besides Ayesha''s midterm exam is fast approaching, I also need to make my questionnaire." Knight replied. "Okay I''ll tell the cook to prepare some of your favourite food." Mrs. Gonzales looked at Knight. She''s lucky enough to have him as her son-in-law and a best friend to her late son, Spade. "Mom could I ask some servant to get the plastic bags in the car and there was also a sack of dog food there." Knight asked Mrs. Gonzales. "Dog Food? But we don''t have any dogs here" Mrs. Gonzales was wondering why Knight mentioned a dog food. "Well actually we adopted an Alaskan Malamute, I think Ayesha brought him inside her room. You didn''t see them walked inside." Knight said and Mrs. Gonzales just looked at him and she called the servants to get the bags in Knight''s car. "Thanks mom, I''ll just put this cage inside Ayesha''s room." he uttered and excused himself. Mr. Gonzales came in from the garden, "Why are you standing there?" he asked his wife who was just standing in the living room and was looking at the second floor. "We have two more addition in the family." Mrs. Gonzales said out of nowhere and Mr. Gonzales was just watching his wife wondering what she is talking about. "I don''t know what you''re talking about but let''s go to the pavillion now." he said and grab his wife''s arms and they walked towards the pavillion. When Knight arrived at Ayesha''s room, he saw little Knight sleeping on Ayesha''s bed while Ayesha is sitting on her rattan chair, she looked annoyed, "Did someone annoyed this woman?" Knight asked himself, he placed Light''s cage and approached Ayesha. "Why do look annoyed? Did someone annoyed you when we went shopping?" he asked her, his voice is full of concern. "Someone annoyed me. Well his face is annoying." Ayesha grumpily said. "Who annoyed you? I''m going to punch his face." Knight uttered and bumped his fist into his palm. "Go punch your annoying face." Ayesha uttered and look at the tree near here balcony. "Did I annoy you? When? Where?" Knight asked innocently. "Your face is annoying me." Ayesha mumbled still looking at the tree. Knight gasped that it made Ayesha looked at him, "Did he realize something.?" Ayesha thought. "Are you perhaps experiencing "THAT" time of the month when you girls have a super moody attitude." Knight blurted out and a pillow hit his face, "GET OUT YOU MORON!!! YOUR FACE AND YOUR PERVERTNESS IS REALLY ANNOYING ME." Ayesha yelled and throw one slipper to Knight. Knight just teased Ayesha more, "Oh my baby is starting to like me because she is annoyed when she sees my handsome face." he uttered "Fuck! I don''t like you... you moron." Ayesha uttered and throw her other slipper to Knight but he caught it and he walked towards Ayesha and crashed his lips into hers. Ayesha was caught off guard, she didn''t have time to react and something is messing with her mind. Knight depend their kiss and Ayesha was about to respond when Knight parted and looked at Ayesha''s eyes intently. "One curse word, one kiss" he uttered and spoke again, "So I encourage you to curse more so that I could taste and punish that sweet lips of yours." he added with a smile plastered on his lips. Ayesha looked at him, still stunned of what he did and when she recovered, he gave him a painful kick in the part where it hurt the most. "Ouchhhhh..... fu?k!" Knight ?r??n?d and his face became red while he was suffering from a severe pain down there. "Serves you right you pervert." Ayesha muttered and she ran off towards the bathroom and locked the door. "Ayesha... aww comeback here! Aren''t you.. ouch.. afraid that.. that we might not produce any baby because you directly kicked me hard... so hard right in... in between my legs? Damn it hurts so much baby, help me ease the pain." Knight had a hard time uttering his words, it still hurts so much. "I really go myself an amazon wife." he thought still enduring the pain. Ayesha who was inside the bathroom, her hand was holding her ?h?st, "Why are you beating so fast?" she asked her heart which was beating abnormally. "I''m just guilty. This has no other meaning" She thought to herself feeling a bit guilty of what she did to him. She only did that because she was stunned and was caught off guard AGAIN because of what he did. Chapter 53 - Dream of Me After a thirty minutes of staying inside the bathroom and trying to calm herself, Ayesha decided to go out from the bathroom. She first peak at the bathroom door, she saw Knight in her bed. She went out and approached him. "Is he asleep?" she asked when she saw that his eyes where closed and pain is still visible in his face. "I''m sorry, I didn''t mean to kick your buddy." Ayesha apologies and she was shocked when Knight opened his eyes, "Just give me kiss on the lips and the pain will go away in an instant and my buddy will for give you." he uttered. "No way pervert, you still deserve that." Ayesha said and made a distance between her and Knight. "But that was so painful baby." Knight uttered and he was about to speak when they heard a knock and the door opened. "It''s time for dinner, you two should go out now." Mrs. Gonzales said as she looked at Knight and Ayesha. "We will follow you mother." Ayesha said politely and Mrs. Gonzales just nod and she walked away from Ayesha''s room. "Let''s have some dinner so that you can go home." Ayesha said and she went out first, Knight followed her while little Night followed his father. Knight looked at his back when he felt that someone is following him, and there he saw little Night, "Oh you''re awake!" he exclaimed. "Are you hungry now?" he asked and Night just wiggle his tail. "Come follow your daddy, I''ll give you some food." Knight walked again and little Night just followed him. He carried the dog when they were about to go down on the stairs and on the last step, he put him down. The two of them went inside the dining area. "Oh may what a chubby looking puppy." Grandma Alicia exclaimed when she saw little Night. "You adopted a dog?" Ayesha''s father asked her. "So that''s what you mean when we have two additonal family?" Ayesha''s father looked at his wife and Mrs. Gonzales just nodded. "Yes father, it was Brother Liwie''s idea and I also want a puppy." Ayesha replied as she looked at little Night who is now sitting beside her chair. "Amelia" Ayesha called one of the servants. "Can you please prepare some food amd water for Little Night. The dog food is still on the living room and even his personal things, you can just get them and organize them on the other room next to the storage room. Thank You." Ayesha instructed the servant and Amelia immediately followed what her young miss have instructed her. They started eating when everyone have already taken their seats. The elders where talking about business while Knight and Ayesha are just eating their dinner quietly. Ayesha was the first one to finish her dinner, she excused herself and went out from the dining area. "Knight are you going to sleep her again?" Grandma Alicia asked. "No Grandma, I''m going to go home because I still have work to do tomorrow." Knight explained and Grandma Alicia just nodded. Knight finished his food and excused himself. Little Night also followed his father again. He was already full and ready to sleep again. Knight carried little Night in going to Ayesha''s room, he placed her gently on her bed. "I''ll be going now." Knight uttered and took his duffle bag with him. "Okay drive safely" Ayesha replied with out looking at Knight. "Where is my goodbye kiss?" Knight asked and Ayesha just gave him a middle finger sign. "How rude of you baby. Someday you will experience that with me"he uttered and started walking fast towards her door, "Don''t miss me to much baby and dream of me. Bye, I love you. Daddy also loves you both, Light and Night" he added and he closed the door not giving Ayesha a chance to speak. When he arrived at the living room, he saw the elders sitting and relaxing. "I''ll be going now mom, dad" Knight said as he looked at Ayesha''s parents. "Grandma, Grandpa." he then looked at the two elders. "Okay be careful in driving Knight. Drive carefully." Grandma Alicia reminded him. "I will" he replied and wave goodbye to them and his figure disappeared from the elders sight. "He is really a good child." Grandma Alicia commented and the three agree to her. ----- "Young Master, are you going back to that country now? Since we have already solve the problem here, I can book you a flight this evening." the young man''s secretary said. The young man looked at his secretary, "No just wait for my orders andI''ll stay her for a few more days. I will visit him and see how his condition is. Besides, I also want to prepare my gifts for Ayesha. while I''m still here" the young man replied. "Alright young master." his secretary uttered and made his way out from the dining area. The young man then started eating his breakfast again. Chapter 54 - Tired Morning came and Ayesha was already awake before the sun show itself. She was just staring at the ceiling, she just couldn''t sleep last night that she was so envious of little night who was sleeping soundly beside her. She got off from her bed and went out from her room quietly, afraid that Little Night would wake up. "Why do you look like a zombie?" her mother asked her when she entered the dining area. "You''ve got some bags under your eye and you look so tired." she added. "I had a hard time sleeping last night mother." she answered her mother and sat down on her usual place. "Oh someone is inlove." her Grandma said out loud and looked at Ayesha. "Grandma I don''t love Knight." Ayesha retaliated. "Did I said that you''re inlove Knight? And dear Ayesha I didn''t mention your name. That someone could be your mother, father, me or your grandpa." Grandma Alicia uttered and Ayesha just rolled her eyes, "Yeah whatever Grandma." she said while putting some food on her plate and she start eating. "Ayesha were is that dog you adopted yesterday?" her Grandpa asked. "Still sleeping and also the bunny that Knight caught." she said as she continued chewing her food. "You also have a bunny?" Ayesha''s father asked. "Yeah" Ayesha replied briefly. "Can I take that dog for a walk later? I will also teach him some tricks." Grandpa said and Ayesha just nodded, she continued eating when she heard a bark from the second floor. "Amelia please get Little Night and give him some breakfast. And also give little Light some fresh carrots or lettuce" Ayesha said to Amelia. Amelia went to get some fresh vegetables and she immediately went upstairs. She went back to the dining area with Little Night who is following behind her. Little Night immediately went to Ayesha side and looked at her while Amelia is preparing his breakfast. Little Night let out a cute bark and Ayesha looked at him. "Good Morning to you to little buddy." Ayesha greeted him back and Amelia called the dog. "I''m done, I''ll prepare now for school." Ayesha said and excused herself and went up back to her room to freshen herself up and prepare for school. On the other hand, Knight is already closing his apartment''s door. He had a good sleep last night that''s why he woke up so early and decided to go to school early since he was absent yesterday. While walking towards the door, he took his phone and dialed Louise''s number. "Boss?" Louise spoke in the other line. "Did you visit the house?" he asked as he push the elevator''s open bu??on and went inside, he then pushed the UG bu??on. "Yes boss everything is already done and it is well furnished. All the furnitures are already arranged." he answered Knight. "Good because the wedding is already fast approaching. By the way, if you have some documents that needs my signature you just give them to me in the faculty office." Knight uttered. "Copy boss." Louise happily uttered and Knight ended the call and the elevator''s door opened. He went out and walked towards his car, he was about to open the door when his phone rang. "Clint what''s up?" he asked and opened the door and went inside. "Knight, she is coming here." Clint uttered, his voice is shaking. Knight frowned and asked, "Who is coming here?" "My mom is coming here, in this country." Clint uttered. "Clint it is just you mom, why are you afraid of her?" Knight asked even if he already knew what''s his reason. "I know you already know the reason Knight, hey buddy please help me find a girl who could pretend to be my girlfriend, please buddy. I really don''t want to marry whoever that brat my mother arrange for me." Clint pleaded Knight. "Okay okay, I''ll find someone for you. I''ll end this now, I still need to go to work." Knight said. "Okay buddy thanks." Clint said and he ended the call. Knight just shook his head, started the car''s engine and drove off. ------ Ayesha arrived at her classroom, she sat at her own chair and she looked extremely in need of sleep. "What happened to you?" Aria asked her best friend who she have not seen for three days. Ayesha just looked at her with a sleepy face. "Ayesha you look like a zombie with that bags beneath your eyes" Aria commented and she went closer to Ayesha and whispered, "Did Mr. Salvador did something to you that''s why you look so..." Aria looked at Ayesha''s face again before saying the last word, "tired?" Aria''s question made Ayesha''s face blushed. "Of course not. How could you ask me that bold question. I just couldn''t sleep last night." Ayesha was so defensive that Aria looked at her with a suspicious face. "Really?" Aria asked still not believing her best friend. "I swear he didn''t do something outrageous to me" Ayesha said. "Just go back to your seat because the class os about to start." Ayesha whispered to Aria when Knight entered their room. Knight looked at Aria who was just going back to her seat, he then looked at Ayesha and his beows meet. "She looks tired, what the hell did she do last night? Was she thinking of me?" the thought of her thinking about him made his day more even brighter and because of that Knight discuss his lesson full of smiles, he even joked to his students. The whole class was so lively that the students wh?n?d when the bell rang, it was time for Knight to go out but before he went out, he spoke. "Don''t forget to study for your midterm exam on Thursday and Friday." he remainded his class and took a last glance on Ayesha before going out. Ayesha''s classmates went out to have their break while Aria and Ayesha where the only ones who were left in the room. "Where did you two went last Sunday that you even havd to be absent yesterday." Aria started her interrogation. "We just went to his Private House located somewhere in the mountains." Ayesha answered. "And what did you two do?" Aria asked again. "Nothing much we just had a picnic that was destroyed by the rain and we sleep during the night." Ayesha narrated, living out the part where they kissed passionately. "Nothing wild happened?" Aria asked with a disappointed voice. "Oh there is, Knight actually chase a bunny and we adopted a dog." Ayesha answered and eat her home-made sandwhich. Aria just looked at her best friend, she was expecting of a sizzling hot and tiring session between Knight and Ayesha but to her disappointment nothing happened between the two. "Ayesha, I''ll sleep in your room tonight. I want to see your new pets and let''s study together also." Aria said as she munch one of Ayesha''s sandwich. Ayesha just nodded and said okay and then continue eating while doodling something on her journal. The day went by so fast and all their subject teachers were just discussing the remaining lessons and then remainding them to study for the upcoming midterm exam on Thursday and Friday. Ayesha is currently sitting inside the car, she is on her way home and was scrolling throught her phone when she receive a message from Knight. She click the message and read it. "I''ll be coming over to your house tonight, I''ll continue to tutor you." that was Knight''s message for her. As soon as she was done reading it, she then started typing her reply, "Aria will be sleeping over, is it okay if she would study with us?" she then hit the send bu??on. She immediately receive a reply from Knight, "Okay baby we still have room for one and I also need to talk to Aria." She didn''t bother replying him instead she decided to send a message to Aria, "Hey Aria, Brother Liwie will come to the house later and he will tutor the two of us this evening.", she send her message and put her phone back inside her bag, she didn''t waith for Aria''s reply and decided to just take a short nap for a while. Chapter 55 - Sleep over Both Aria and Knight suddenly popped in the mansion''s door. "You''re both here?" Mrs. Gonzales was shocked when the two just suddenly came in and appeared in the living room. Aroa was carrying two bags while Knight is carrying his duffle bag. "Good evening Auntie Lucia, I will have another sleep over here Auntie and Mr. Salvador here will tutor me and Ayesha." Aria explained while pointing at Knight "Good evening Mom. I''ll also stay here for tonight" Knight politely greeted and Aria looked at him with her eyes wide open. "Good evening to you both. Ayesha is in her room, I think she''s playing with little night." Ayesha''s mother uttered. "I''ll just call the three of you if dinner''s already done." she added and the two, Aria and Knight, raced towards Ayesha''s room. "Why didn''t you tell Ayesha that you will also stay for tonight?" Aria asked. "I was planning to have a girls sleepover with her but you came and decided to also sleep here." she added. "She would freak out if I would tell her. And don''t worry you two can have your sleepover, I''ll sleep on the guest room." Knight replied. When they are near Ayesha room, Aria slammed the door open. Little Night barked when he saw an unfamiliar face. Ayesha was nowhere to be found. "Oh my God what a cute little puppy." Aria exclaimed and run towards Night who is still barking at her. Aria carried little Night, not afraid of being bitten, and she coaxed him gently that the little puppy is starting to smell her. "Oh I think he likes me already!" Aria exclaimed when little night started ???k?n? her face. The bathroom door opened, Ayesha came out and frangrance from her bath soap lingers in the whole room. "You''re both here already!" she uttered while wiping her hair. Knight tossed his duffle bag on the bed and approached Ayesha, he took the towel from her hand and wiped help her wiped and dry her hair. "Hey you two stop being so lovey dovey there. Can''t you see that someone is single over here." Aria commented because she has been feed with dog food because of the two couple. "You won''t be single for long. Can I ask for your help Aria?" Knight said and looked at Aria, he is still drying Ayesha''s long hair. "What kind of help? And do I get a payment for that?" Aria asked. "Well I have a friend and he needs someone to pretent to be his grilfriend because he had a bet with his mother that once he would find the girl he loves, his mother won''t marry him to the girl she chooses for him." Knight explained. "And yes, he will pay you Aria." he added. "Are you talking about Clint?" Ayesha asked Knight and he nodded and said, "Yes baby". "Aria all I can say is just say YES because Clint is such a good cook and you can ask him to cook for you as a sign of his payment, you don''t need money all you need is food Aria." Ayesha said and took the towel from Knight''s hand. "Okay I''ll agree." Aria said, she was so happy when she heard that Knight''s friend can cook delicious food. "Are you going to sleep here also?" Ayesha asked Knight when she saw his duffle bag. "Yes but I''m going to sleep in the guest room, the one next to your room" he uttered and Ayesha just nodded. "Are we gonna start studying now?" Aria suddenly uttered when the room was wrapped in silence. Knight was shockingly behave tonight that it made Ayesha wonder why he didn''t do his usual annoying gestures and teasings. Ayesha was about to speak when the door opened and Mrs. Gonzales appeared, "Dinner is ready, you three should fill your stomachs first before studying." she said and Aria immediately stood up living the little dog on the bed, she have noe choosen food over the cute little puppy. Ayesha place little night down who was whimpering, asking for her help, and both Knight and her followed Aria, even Little Night followed them. "Oh you''re both here!" Ayesha''s father who was sitting in the living exclaimed when he saw Aria and Knight. "Good Evening dad" Knight greeted. "Good Evening Uncle." Aria also greeted and proceede to the dining area. When they arrived, Aria''s face glowed when she saw the delicious dishes on the table. "You are really the best Auntie Lucia." Aria uttered and took a seat. "Where is Grandpa and Grandma?" Knight asked when he saw the two empty seats. "They went on a three days vacation." Ayesha''s mother answered Knight''s question. "Help yourselves now, we have already eaten our dinner. All the food here are for all of you." Mrs. Gonzales uttered and she went out. Aria immediately dig in, she''s wat more hungry than the two. Little Night was barking at Ayesha, asking for his own dinner. Knight immediately stood up and called Little Night, "Come here baby doggo, I''ll feed you." he said while filling little night bowl. The little puppy went to his side and Knight gave Little Night his bowl full of dog food. "Is he like that?" Aria asked when she saw how Knight acted like a child and Ayesha just nodded and started eating her own food. After they have eaten there dinner they went back to there room to start studying. "I''m so full." Aria said while massaging her stomach. "Time check, it''s already eight fifteen, let''s start now." Knight uttered and took out the things he need in tutoring this two ladies beside him. Ayesha and Aria looked each other and sat down on their own chairs. They also took their notes and the tutoring session began. After three hours of studying, Knight decided to end it because the two of them still needs to go to school tomorrow. Aria was already laying down on the bed, she gave up on studying two hours ago and just choose to sleep. "You go sleep now baby." he said to Ayesha and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "Good night" he uttered and went out. Ayesha pushed Aria on the other side of the bed and she then lay down and went to sleep. Chapter 56 - Midterm Exam (Day 1) The car entered in a huge gate and stopped right in front of a huge house. The young man''s driver spoke, "Young master we have arrived." The young man took a glance at the house and went out from the car. When he got off, he was greeted by a doctor, "Good Morning Young Master." "How is he doing? Any signs that he is about to wake up?" the young man asked the doctor as they walk inside the house. "He is doing well Young Master but still there is still no sign that he will wake up for now." the doctor honestly answered the young man. They arrive at a room where a man was laying down and was only supported by a machines, tubes where placed on his body and mouth. The young man looked at the man''s appearance, his body was so thin and despite his long long hair, one could still easily tell that the man is so handsome when he was still healthy. "Take all risks and chances just to keep him alive and if possible awake." The young man said before taking a last glance at the person inside the room and he then left with his body guards behind him. "Why is the young master so eager to make this man alive? He would even take any risks and chances just to keep him alive and if possible awake. This man has been in coma for to long now. It would be God''s miracle already if he would be awake someday." one of the nurse''s asked and commented. But no one could answered her question because they too don''t know the reason why their Young Master is so eager to make this man alive. They are also wondering what is his relation to the man inside the room. ----- The midterm exam days finally arrive, both Ayesha and Aria are very confident that they could answer every questions in the test paper because for two days also Knight spent his night sleeping in the Gonzales mansion just to tutor the two ladies. And because of it, Ayesha and Aria also experienced and witnessed how strict and cruel Knight could be when he is dead serious in what he is doing. "I didn''t know that your husband can also be strict and he was even cruel when he gets serious." Aria uttered. The two girls just arrive in school and are one their way to the classroom. "I also didn''t know that he could do that." Ayesha weakly said, she still wanted to sleep on her bed but Knight woke them up early so that they can review for today''s exam, they will have three subjects to take for this morning. Aria remembered what she just experienced last night made her shiver. "That was so gross." she thought and sat down at her own chair and reviewed for a few minutes. Ayesha did the same, she wanted to win the secret prize that Knight said this morning. It was her only motivation that could help her stay focused and at the same time awake. Ayesha intently glared at him, "I''ll surely answer all your questions." she thought. "Good Morning everyone, please pass the test papers at the back." Knight said as he placed the test papers on each table in the front row. "You only have one hour and twenty minutes to finish that exam. You may now answer it." he added and sat down on his own chair. Through out the whole duration of the exam, he was just looking at one person who is so focused on answering the test. After one hour and twenty minutes, the students passed all their test papers in front and Knight collected them. "Good Job, you all did well. You may all go out now. Class dismissed." Knight said and he went out. Aria immediately approached Ayesha, "Did you answered it all?" she asked. Ayesha just nodded and took out a container, she opened it and took one sandwich. Ayesha''s mother would always prepare sandwich for her and Aria. "Let''s start reviewing now because I want to win the secret price that Mr. Salvador said earlier." Aria is so determined to review and get the high score. The two reviewed again while eating their snacks. Break time ended at it was time for their second subject which is finance. Their instructor came in and started distributing the test paper, the students where given one hour and thirty minutes to answer the test. Ayesha answered all the questions confidently because she have already reviewed this subject for four time already and besides it''s one of her favourite subject. After the given time ended the instructor collected the papers and congratulated the students for answering the test quietly. Ayesha took her notes for the last subject and spend her fifteen minutes reviewing. And after fifteen minutes, the instructor for the last subject came in and distributed the papers. "This is your last exam for today. You will be given one hour and forty-five minutes to answer the test. Good luck everyone, you may start now." the instructor said and Ayesha immediately took her pen and read the question. One hour and forty-five minutes have already passed. The instructor spoke, "Pass your papers now." she said and collected the papers when it was all in front. "Have a good day. The results will be given on Friday afternoon. Please do will on tomorrows test." the instructor said and she went out. Ayesha let out a sigh, she was relieved that she answered all the questions without any blank answers. Aria approached her, "Let''s go home now I want to sleep so that I could review on the subjects for tomorrow''s exam." she said and dragged the sleepy Ayesha. Chapter 57 - A Vivid Dream As soon as Ayesha arrived at her room, she immediately lay down on her bed and closed her eyes, she then fall into a deep slumber. ----- "Let go of me." a little girl shouted when she was dragged by two bulky man towards a black van. "Young Miss please just come with us. We don''t want to hurt you." the man who is holding her said gently but the girl continued kicking and shouting. She was so scared and on the verge of crying. The men successfully got her inside the van and they put a blind fold on her. " The young master said that we should not let this young miss get hurt." one man said and the van started to drove away towards its destination. When they arrive they gently lead the girl out from the car and they walk towards a beautiful house. "Where.. where are you taking me?" the young girl asked, her voice cracked and she shivered. "We will not do anything to you young miss. Our little young master just wanted to see you again." the man said and push the young girl lightly into a room and they gently closed the door making sure not to make a sound. "Hello are you still there?" the girl asked when she didn''t heard any noise. "You are here!" the young little girl heard a cold yet cute voice that it made her stood frozen in her place. A young man was standing in front of her, she just couldn''t see him because of the blind fold. "What do you want from me? My parents are rich they can give you some money." the little girl said, her fear is taking her body now. A young man approached and took her blind fold off. "Oh don''t worry my parents are also rich, I only want you not your parents money." the young man spoke again. His voice was cute but it has something in it that could make a person shiver just by hearing his voice. "Please let me go, my mommy is waiting for me." the young girl begged. But the young man who was with her just let out a sinister laugh. "No! I will not let you go out in this house never, you will be with me until you get old." the young man spoke angrily that it startled the young girl and she let out a loud cry, she was pleading and shouting her parent''s name. "Please let me out please." the little girl said as she continued cry. "Don''t you dare leave this place ever or I''ll hurt one of your family. You only belong to me. You are my property from now on." the young boy said and the young girl just cried and cried, she''s so scared. ---- Ayesha woke up and she was sweating and panting heavily. Her dream was so vivid and she could see the little boy''s face. "Was I kidnapped by a little boy when I was little?" she thought to herself. "That would be ridiculous how can a cute little boy kidnapped me? Maybe I''m just tired from studying and or maybe I''m just hungry." she added and looked at the time, it was already seven in the evening. Ayesha stood up and decided to take a quick shower first before going down to have her dinner. While Ayesha is taking a shower, both Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales are discussing something in the living room. "Did she receive any gift from that man again?" Mr. Gonzales asked. "No, she didn''t receive any gifts from him again. The last gift she receive was the three gold bars." Mrs Gonzales answered. "I wondered what she did to those gold bars" Mr. Gonzales wondered. "Let''s not talk about that anymore, the only thing we need to focus on is the wedding, it is fast approaching and we need to make sure that the wedding would be successful." Mrs. Gonzales said to her husband. " I know, I have already ?ssigned people that will guard the place in case he would appear." Mr. Gonzales said as he sip his tea. "We can let her now about it." Mrs. Gonzales said and both of them were startled when Ayesha suddenly spoke. "Are you both hiding something from me?" she asked. Mrs. Gonzales was about to speak when the servant approached them. "Master, Madam, Young miss, dinner is ready." the servant''s timing was a great help for both couple. "Let''s eat first Ayesha, right you still need to study for your last test tomorrow." Ayesha''s mother dragged her completely changing the topic. The three of them went to the dining area, little Night was already sleeping beside his bowl. He had his share first. "Did you feed him?" Ayesha asked when she saw little Night. "Yes and we also fed Light the bunny with some fresh carrots. You were sound asleep when I went to your room." Ayesha'' father uttered and Ayesha just nodded. The three of them peacefully had their dinner, Ayesha had completely forgotten of what she heard a while ago. Chapter 58 - Midterm Exam (Day 2) When she was done eating her food, Ayesha stood up and carried little Night who is still sleeping. "Oh gosh you are getting heavier Night." she exclaimed when she finally carried him. She then excused herself and went upstairs. Ayesha opened the door and placed Little Night on his large bean bag, Ayesha also looked at Little Light who is also fast asleep. "This two really loves sleeping after eating, probably I got myself two pigs, not a dog and a bunny." Ayesha thought to herself. Ayesha then decided to review for her test tomorrow. While she was reading her notes, her phone lit up indicating that she has just receive a message. She looked at her phone, the message was from Knight, she read the message, "What are you doing baby?". Ayesha typed her reply, "Studying, I cannot be bothered tonight because I''m willing to win your secret price." she sent her reply and she only got a, "Okay baby fighting. I love you", reply from Knight. Ayesha went back to what she was doing. After reviewing for a long time, she decided to sleep because she is already sleepy and besides her eyes are already giving up. Ayesha crawled into her bed after turning the lights off and in a second she was already transported into her dreamland. ------- The next morning, Ayesha woke up feeling groggy, "I think my sleep is still not enough." She thought as she holds her head, she felt dizzy and still stood up to prepare for school. When she came down to the dining area and she saw Little Night being feed by her father. "You''re awake." her father exclaimed when he saw his daughter. "And you look pale. Did you sleep late last night?" he asked her. "I was up for to long last night." Ayesha said as she sat down on her chair and got herself some food. "Where is mom?" she asked when she didn''t saw her mother. "She''s in the garden, planting her new collection of flowers." her father replied to her her. " Drink your medicine after you finish eating. I will head now to he office, good luck on your exam baby." her father added and give her a peck on the cheeks. "Say goodbye to mom before you go." she shouted to her father who is now leaving the dining area. Ayesha finished her own food and asked one servant to give her some medicine that could prevent her from having a fever. Ayesha took her medicine and she said goodbye to Little Night, she instructed her servant, Amelia to take Little Night on a walk later because the dog is getting fatter and fatter, he needs some exercise. Ayesha was on her way to the university when her phone suddenly rang, she answered the call and right away she heard Aria''s cute yet sharp voice, "Where are you?" Aria asked. "Still on my way to school." she answered. "What''s wrong? Where are you?" she asked Aria, "Nothing just tell your driver to drive fast and I''m at the classroom right now." Aria said. "Okay were almost there. Bye." Ayesha ended the call and told her driver to speed up. Ayesha arrived at her classroom, she directly went to her desk. She is still feeling unwell and was about to take a little nap when Aria approached her. "Are you okay? You look pale." Aria said when she saw Ayesha''s pale face. "I''m fine just a little bit sleepy." Ayesha said. "What do you want?" she asked. "May I borrow your notes?" Aria uttered while looking like a cute puppy. "Where are your notes?" Ayesha asked wondering why Aria needs to borrow her own notes, "I.. uhmm." Aria scratched her head, "I left it at the restaurant last night and I was so lazy to get it back." She muttered in a low voice. "What were you doing in the restaurant last night?" Ayesha raised one eyebrow while waiting for her best friends'' reply. "I eat there of course, they had a special dish last night and I don''t want to miss it out." Aria reasoned out and Ayesha just sighed. "So you choose to eat instead of studying?" She asked again. "Not so, I did study for a little bit before I lost my composure and just enjoyed the foods." Aria said in a low voice. "Please Yesha let me borrow your notes." Aria pleaded. "I really want to win Mr. Salvador''s secret price." she added. Ayesha just sighed and gave her notes to Aria, "Next time you should stay in your room and study, stop thinking about foods if you''ve got some exams on that week. Go now and review, you only have ten minutes to review." Ayesha said and Aria thanked her and happily skipped towards her own desk. Ayesha just placed her arms on the desk and she took a quick nap. Ten minutes have passed and the school bell rang. Ayesha woke up and rub her eyes and she also wiped her face. Their instructor came in and just like what happened on yesterday''s test, The instructor distributed the test papers and instructed the students that they only have one hour and thirty minutes to answer the test. Despite being unwell Ayesha still answered her test confidently until the third and last subject for the morning. The students were immediately dismissed after their last test and all of them sighed and felt relieved that they survive the three subjects today. They started going out and Aria immediately went to Ayesha who is now feeling dizzy. "Are you sure you are okay Ayesha?" Aria asked. "I''m fine." Ayesha answered, she stood up and was about to get her bag when she suddenly felt that her surrounding is spinning and Aria was shocked when Ayesha just fainted in front of her. "Oh my gosh. Ayesha!" Aria exclaimed. "Help somebody help me!" Aria shouted and a tall man came in, it was Knight. "Mr. Salvador Ayesha fainted." Aria said when she saw that it was Knight. Knight immediately carried Ayesha into his arms and brought her to the infirmary. "What happened to her?" the school doctor asked. "She fainted" Aria answered and the school doctor immediately checked Ayesha''s condition as soon as she was laid in the bed. "How is she?" Knight asked when the doctor was done checking Ayesha. "She''s fine now. She just need to have some sleep because she''s anaemic. So don''t let her stay up for too long." The doctor said. "Just let her sleep here for awhile" he added before excusing himself. Knight looked at Ayesha, she is so pale, probably it was his fault that she didn''t had enough sleep. "Mr. Salvador, may I trouble you for a while.?" Aria spoke and Knight looked at her. "Go ahead take your lunch, I''ll watch her." Knight knew what will Aria say. "Thank you Mr. Salvador." Aria said and went out from the infirmary, she''s already hungry and she was also planning on bringing some food for Ayesha so that she could eat something when she would wake up. After Aria left the infirmary room, Knight grab a chair and he sat beside Ayesha''s bed. He took her hand and spoke, "I''m sorry baby. It''s my fault why you fainted. If only I didn''t let you study until morning you would have probably had enough rest. I''m so sorry baby." Knight said to the sleeping Ayesha. He just looked at her pale face for the whole time until Aria came back. Chapter 59 - Top One Ayesha woke up after three hours of sleeping in the infirmary, she felt that someone is holding her hands. She looked at the person and saw that it was Knight. "Brother Liwie?" Ayesha said and Knight woke up. "Are you alright? How are you feeling?" he immediately asked Ayesha when he saw her awake already. "I''m fine. Why am I here? Did I fainted?" She asked. "Yes. Why did you went to school when you feel unwell?" Knight asked he, his voice was a little bit loud yet a hint of concerned is still there. "Sorry. I just want to take the test on the day it is scheduled. And I also wanted to win your price." Ayesha answered. Knight gently said, "The teachers can still let you take the test baby. And besides I still have a special price for you in case you won''t win so don''t do that ever again okay?". Ayesha nodded and said "Okay." "And I''m sorry because I think it''s also my fault why you are feeling unwell. Sorry baby." Knight uttered and he gave Ayesha a kiss on the forehead. "It''s okay Brother Liwie, I''m fine now." Ayesha reassured Knight that she is already fine. "Here, have some lunch. Aria bought that." Knight gave Ayesha her lunch. "Where is Aria?" Ayesha asked when she didn''t saw Aria with them. "She said she would look at the result of the midterm exam." Knight said and suddenly the door opened. "Here she comes." he added when they saw Aria who is amiling from ear to ear coming towards their direction. "Ayesha you''re awake!" Aria exclaimed when she saw that Ayesha is already up. "Good because I have some good news for you." she cheerfully added. "And Mr. Salvador prepare your secret price because Ayesha and Me both got the top one." she happily said to Knight and Ayesha. "Good Job girls! You both did well. Don''t worry I''ll prepare the prizes for both of you." Knight uttered. He had already expected that the two ladies would get the first place. "Hey tomorrow is Saturday and Clint asked me to come to his house. And I thought that it would be the perfect for both of you to meet each other." Knight uttered as he looked at Aria. "Okay let''s go." Aria said. She''s excited to see who his pretend to be boyfriend is. "Let''s also bring Little Night and Little Light with us tomorrow. So that they could have there check up." Ayesha uttered as she ate her food. "You''re awake already." the schoold doctor said. He just came in when he saw that his patient for today is already talking with her friend and homeroom teacher. "You can go after you''re done wating your lunch. And also have some check up so that you can be given some medicine for your anemia." the doctor added. "Thank you Doctor Kim." Ayesha said and she finished her food. After eating, the three bid goodbye to Doctor Kim and Knight went bavk to the faculty room because it is still his working hours while Ayesha and Aria went to their cars and bid goodbye to each other. Ayesha asked his driver to directly deive home. She wanted to sleep more that''s why when she arrived at home, she directly headed to her room and went to sleep. ------ Morning came and Ayesha woke up sweating and panting, "What a weird dream." she thought. She was staring blanky for a couple of minutes, trying to remember every detail of her dream. As she was staring blankly, Ayesha''s door opened suddenly and both Aria and Knight are already there, standing at staring at Ayesha. "What''s wrong with her?" Aria said as she continued staring at her best friend who is also staring at her study area. "I think she''s still asleep." Knight answered. His wife is sleeping with her eyes open, "Now that''s something pretty impressive" he thought. Aria walked towards Ayesha, Little Night is already up and he went directly to his daddy Knight, while wagging his tail. Little Light is also already up and he was just grooming his self. "AYESHA MYNE GONZALES WAKE UP" Aria shouted in a very high pitched voice. "What the heck Aria?" Ayesha asked when she saw the person who just shouted in her ears. "You were sleeping with your eyes open." Aria innocently said. "Uhmm excuse me, I am not sleeping, I was just thinking of something." Ayesha said and looked at Aria and Knight who were casually dressed. "Why are you both here? And why are you dresses like that?" She asked the two. Aria just looked at her best friend, she was totally dumbfounded. "Gosh Ayesha! Did you hit your brain to hard on the floor yesterday that you actually had a short term memory now? Girl we are going to my pretend-boy friend''s house. Like I''m going to meet him and you are going to have little Night''s check up. Did you really forgot it?" Aria said in a sarcastic voice. "Oh shoot! I totally forgot. Oh my Gosh! I''m so sorry! Give me a minute, you both can have some breakfast downstairs while I would take a quick shower. And bring Light and Night with you." Ayesha immediately stood up and ran towards the bathroom. "Let''s go Mr. Salvador." Aria is hiding her excite when Ayesha said that they could have some breakfast. Knight just followed Aria, he was bringing the cage while Night is walking behind him. Chapter 60 - Mistaken It only took twelve minutes for Ayesha to have a shower, three minutes in changing into her outfit and two minutes in combing her hair and she also puts some lotion and perfume on. She rushed into the dining area, "I''m done let''s go." She uttered but Knight only grabbed her hand and forced her to seat down. "Have some breakfast first. I cannot let you go without you eating breakfast baby. You should always eat breakfast whenever you start your day." Knight shoved some bread toast into Ayesha''s mouth. Ayesha took the remaining bread from her mouth while she started chewing the bread that went inside her mouth. "Here have some milk." Knight gave Ayesha her milk. "Hey you Mr. Salvador stop being so sweet to Ayesha when you are in front of me. Can''t you see I''m freaking single here?" Aria uttered as she continued chewing her food. "Aria its just natural for a husband to take good care of his wife. Ayesha is my wife and I''m her husband so it is natural for me to be sweet towards her. And don''t get jealous, you will also meet you boyfriend later." Knight uttered and continued feeding Ayesha. "Excuse me Mr. Salvador he will be my pretend boy friend." Aria corrected Knight. "Nah you will eventually make your pretend relationship into a real one someday." Knight uttered. "I wouldn''t dare to think about that Mr. Salvador." Aria said and went back to eating her breakfast. After the three finished there food, they immediately head out to go to Clint''s house. Aria looked upset of being a third wheel in this relationship, she doesn''t want to experience just watching this two do all their lovey dovey gestures in front of her. After a couple of minutes of driving, they arrive at Clint''s how, and the three saw someone grilling outside the house. Knight and Ayesha went out from the car and Aria followed them, she was carrying little Night while Ayesha took Light''s cage. "Clint!" Knight called his the person who was grilling. Clint looked at the gate and saw that it was Knight and Ayesha together with their pet and they also have one little small chubby girl with them. "Just open the gate Knight" Clint shouted as he continued grilling. Knight opened the gate and the three of them walked towards Clint''s direction. Aria place Little Night down and exactly four dogs came out running from the backyard towards their direction. Little Night let out a cute bark and played with the other dogs. "Hi Clint." Ayesha greeted Clint. "Hey sis-in-law welcome back." Clint uttered as he gave Ayesha a hug and a high five to Knight. "We brought Night and Light with us, is it okay if you could check them up again?" Ayesha said, it has only been four days when Clint check the two up but Ayesha wanted to make sure that night is not overweight because he is getting fatter and fatter. "Oh sure, I''ll also give him an injection today for the anti-rabies." Clint said and looked at Aria. "Is this your sister, sis-in-law?" Clint asked and pointed to Aria. "Oh no this is my best friend Aria." Ayesha immediately introduce Aria to Clint. "Oh I''m sorry Ms. Aria." Clint apologies. He had really thought that the girl is Ayesha sister because of her height and how young she looks like. "It''s okay." Aria just smiled but deep inside she annoyed by him what he said. "Did he really have mistaken me as Ayesha''s sister? Is it because of my height?" Aria thought as she tried to calm herself down. "I''ll just finish grilling this one and were all set for breakfast. You can get inside the house and relax for awhile." Clint uttered and went back to grilling. "You two can go inside. I''ll just help Clint here." Knight said to Ayesha and Aria. "Go make yourselves feel at home." Clint said and the two ladies headed inside the house and left the two men. "Didn''t you say you wanted someone to pretend to be your girlfriend." Knight said and took the plate filled wit meat from Clint''s hand. "Yeah and did you find someone?" Clint asked and looked at Knight who is now slowly eating some meat. "You already meet her." Knight said. "Huh? Do I know her already?" Clint said with a confused look. "Yes a minute ago and you have mistaken her as Ayesha''s sister?" knight uttered and shoved another meat on his mouth. "You mean that girl agreed to pretend as my girlfriend?" Clint asked and Knight just nodded and eat another meat again. "And hey stop eating Knight. You childish businessman." Clint added. "Lower down your voice buddy, my wife still doesn''t now that I''m a business man." Knight uttered. "Back to my question, Did that girl really agree to pretend as my girlfriend?" Clint asked once again. "Yes she agreed because of what Ayesha said and all you need to do is cook for her, you know she loves eating and it''s your payment for her effort on pretending to be your girlfriend." Knight said. When the two men were done grilling, they went inside the house. Clint prepared the other dishes and Knight prepared the utensils, while the two ladies where playing with the dogs. Knight called Ayesha and Aria as soon as they were done setting the table and dishes. "Time to eat again Aria and Ayesha." Aria immediately stood up and helped Ayesha stand, they then walked towards the table and took a seat. "Ms. Aria, I''m really sorry that I have mistaken you as sister-in-laws'' sister." Clint apologies again. "And also thank you for agreeing to be my pretend girlfriend, you are a great help for me." he added and Aria looked at him and then she looked at Knight. "You told him already?" Aria asked. "Yes awhile ago, this is the purpose why we went here remember Aria? For you to meet each other." Knight said. "Don''t worry, I''ll cook some delicous food for you." Clint said to Aria and she just nodded. "Let''s start eating now." Clint said and the four of them dig in. Knight and Clint were talking while Aria and Ayesha who are both foodies are enjoying themselves as they savoured the dishes in front of them. Chapter 61 - Wedding Dress After Clint checked the two animals, he and Aria went to the and they didn''t realize that the sun is already setting. Clint also asked for Aria''s number before Knight''s car drove off. It was already six in the evening when they arrived back at the Gonzales mansion. Ayesha went out first from the car. So Knight had the chance to ask Aria on what she thinks of Clint. "Aria what do you think of Clint?" he asked. "Despite the incident happened earlier when he had mistaken me as Ayesha''s sister, made me feel a bit annoyed. But when I had the chance to interact with him, I think he is a good man and the fact that he is a great cook, he can be a boyfriend material or a husband material." Aria answered and got off the car. "Well that''s an interesting answer." Knight thought and also got off from the car. As soon as the two got inside the hous, they say Ayesha''s parents and Grandparents sitting and happily takling in the living room. The two elders just got back from their vacation and they are all eaiting for the dinner to be ready. "Good Evening Grandpa, Grandma, Mom and Dad." Knight greeted them politely. "Good Evening Grandpa, Grandma, Auntie and Uncle." Aria also greeted them cheerfully. "Good Evening to both of you too. Where have you been?" Grandma Alicia asked. "Oh we just went to my friend''s house and had this two checked." Knight pointed at Night who is now laying on the floor near Grandpa''s feet and he raised Light''s cage. "Are you two gonna stay for tonight?" Mr. Goznales asked as he sip into his tea. "I will stay uncle." Aria answered. "I''ll pass today dad, Mom asked me to go home tonight because I need to fit my suit again tomorrow." Knight answered. "Oh right! I forgot to tell Ayesha that she also needs to fit her own wedding gown tomorrow also. And Aria you will come with us because you will also get your dress tomorrow." Mrs. Gonzales said and she stood up to go to Ayesha''s room to remind her for tomorrow''s fitting. The wedding is just one week away from now and even thought it''s just a simple and private occasion, Mrs. Gonzales felt excited about it because finally her daughter will be married to a responsible and good man. Knight looked at his watch and saw that it''s already six forty-five in the evening. He gave Light''s cage to Aria. "I need to go now Grandma, Grandpa and Dad. I promised mom that I''ll be home by seven o''clock." He uttered. "Okay we won''t stop you from going. Take care and drive safely." Grandma Alicia said and Knight excused himself. When he got inside into his car, he took his phone and sent Ayesha a message. After sending he revive his car''s engine and drove off. In Ayesha''s room, Ayesha is currently listening to her mom who is talking about the fitting for the wedding gown tomorrow. If her mom didn''t remind her about the wedding gown she would have forgotten that she get married next week. As she is listening, her phone vibrated, she took it out and saw that she got a message from Knight . She read Knight''s message, "Baby, I''ll go home now. Bye Love you." "Drive Safely Brother Liwie", Ayesha replied. "Hey are you listening to you me?" Mrs. Gonzales said. "Yes mom, I''m listening" She answered and looked at her mother. "If you are really listening to me could you repeat what I just said" Mrs. Gonzales uttered. "Tomorrow we will go to the boutique for the final fitting of my Wedding gown and Aria will come along because she will also get her dress. After we will go to the boutique, we will meet the organizer for the final preparation and lastly we will have some relaxing massage in the spa that you always go to." Ayesha narrated as she looked at her mom. "Very good, now go wash yourself before the dinner''s done. Aria will also sleep here." Her mother said before going out from her room. Ayesha stood up and went to her bathroom. Aria also came inside with Little Light''s cage in her hand. She saw that Ayesha was not around, "She''s probably in the bathroom." Aria thought. She placed light''s cage in it''s usual spot and she took Light out and placed him in the bed. "So are you excited for tomorrow?" Aria asked. "Not so." Ayesha denied. She''s actually excited to see her own wedding gown, she haven''t saw the design, she let the designer decide the wedding gown''s design, she wanted him to surprise her on the design. "Well I''m a bit excited Ayesha, finally my best friend is getting married next week. You will officially be Mrs. Salvador." Aria uttered happily. "I can see that Mr. Salvador will be a good husband to you." she added. Ayesha just smiled at Aria, hoping that she could also reciprocate what Knight felt for her. Chapter 63 - Sleep like a Steel Aria woke up and saw that it was already seven thirty-five in the morning, she was about to close her eyes again when she heard a knock from the door and it suddenly opened, Mrs. Gonzales came in. "You two are still sleeping? Don''t you remember that we have plans to do today?" Mrs. Gonzales uttered. "Auntie I''m already awake the one who is still sleeping is Ayesha." Aria uttered and pointed at Ayesha. "Wake her up now and when you two are done getting ready go to the dining area and have your breakfast. We will leave at eight twenty, I don''t want us to be late in our first appointment for today." Mrs. Gonzales uttered and close the door. Aria immediately woke Ayesha up, she doesn''t want to see her Auntie Lucia get mad, Ayesha''s mother is known for her strictness when it comes to time management. She doesn''t want to make other people wait for her well except for her husband though, she also doesn''t want that people would make her wait. In short, she is very particular with time and punctuality. "Ayesha! Wake up we need to get ready now." Aria said gently as she shook Ayesha''s body, she tried waking Ayesha up but it was no use, the only thing she got to do now is to use force. Aria took a pillow, she got out from her comforter and from the bed. She then inhales and yell, "AYESHA MYNE GONZALES! WAKE UP!" and hit Ayesha straight in the face using the pillow. "What is wrong with you Aria?" Ayesha asked as she massaged her nose. "I tried waking you up because your mom just came in and she said that we will leave at eight twenty and it''s already seven-fifty Ayesha." Aria calmly said. "Gosh why didn''t you wake me up." Ayesha jumped out from her bed and immediately went inside to the bathroom. Ayesha knew how particular her mom is when it comes to punctuality. "I tried waking you up but you sleep like a steel." Aria murmured as she neatly arranged the pillows and the comforter. After a couple of ten minutes Ayesha went out from the bathroom and it was Aria''s turn to take a shower. Ayesha went inside to her walk-in closet to find a simple short and a tee shirt as her outfit. When Ayesha was done changing and is now combing her hair, Aria came out from the bathroom, she is now wearing her knee length white floral off shoulder dress. "Wow! You are always prepared Aria." Ayesha said when she saw her best friend wearing a dress. "Of course, I''m always prepared when it comes to unexpected event Ayesha. I really had a feeling that we will go out today so I packed a dress, I my feeling was right." Aria uttered as she approached Ayesha''s vanity mirror. She combed her hair and put some light make-up on, unlike Ayesha who just simply combed her hair, sprayed some moisturizer on her face and sprayed some perfume all over her body. "Let''s go down now, my mother would surely get angry if we don''t hurry up." Ayesha uttered and went out first as Night followed her. "I''ll follow you after I''m done" Aria said, she is still putting some highlighter on her face. "Faster Aria, and please bring Light''s cage down. He will have some fun in the garden after his bath." Ayesha uttered and she went first to the dining area. After Aria was done putting her lipstick, she grabbed her purse and Light''s cage and she went out from the room. She was greeted by some servants who are cleaning the furniture in the corridor. "Good Morning Miss Aria." they greeted. "Good Morning to you all" Aria greeted and smiled back at the servants and she proceeded her way to the dining area. She gave Light''s cage to Amelia and went to her usual seat. "Good Morning Uncle" Aria greeted Ayesha''s father and she got some food for herself. "You only have ten minutes to eat and brush your teeth." Ayesha''s mother came in, she is all dress up in a casual outfit and she looks like a teenager, not a mother of one. "Where is Grandma and Grandpa?" Ayesha asked. "They are in the pavilion having their tea time." Ayesha''s mother answered. "Your Grandpa wants to walk Night around later" she added. "Night''s leash is in my room, they can ask Amelia''s help later." Ayesha said and finished her food. She stood up and went to the bathroom near the dining area, she brushed her teeth and went out after she was done. Aria did the same thing. "We are ready mother." Ayesha uttered and Mrs. Gonzales gave her husband a peck on the lips and bid goodbye. "Bye father" Ayesha said as she gave him a kiss on the cheeks and followed her mother. "Bye Uncle" Aria said and followed Ayesha. The three ladies went inside the car and the car drove off. Mrs. Gonzales took her phone and dialled a number. "Hello Tiara! Just deliver the documents that I need to review today. I will not go to the office today. Thank you." Mrs. Gonzales ended the call. "You have work today Mom?" Ayesha asked when she heard the conversation. "Yes, I have but I can just review those documents later when we arrive home. I want to accompany my daughter in her wedding gown fitting and I also want to spend time with you and Aria." Mrs. Gonzales said and Ayesha just nodded. ------ "Young Master, are you really not going back to P Country?" the young man''s secretary asked. "Not yet." the man answered. "But Ms. Ayesha''s wedding will be held in a week from now." the young man looked at his secretary and he spoke. "Prepare a gift for her, the best gift that she will not forget aside from the gift that I will give to her when the right time comes" the young man said and went back to reading the documents. The young man''s secretary just bowed and went out drom the room to pick a perfecr gift for the woman whom his Young Master have fallen in love to when he was still young, he had witnessed what his young master did for that girl. The only thing the young man''s secretary can''t understand is why his young master won''t go and stop the wedding by himself. Chapter 64 - Perfect The car stopped in a boutique building and Mrs. Gonzales went out first. Ayesha followed her mother and she was followed by Aria who was talking to someone in the phone. Ayesha looked at the man who is approaching towards their direction, the way he dress up makes him so very manly and he got those beautiful blue eyes. "Good Morning Madam Lucia" Ayesha''s brows frowned when she heard the man spoke, "Why are all handsome men competes with women?" she thought. "Good Morning Clem, are we not late?" Mrs. Gonzales asked. And the man named Clem said, "You are just on time Madam Lucia." The two walked ahead, the man was leading Ayesha''s mother into a very spacious room. Aria went to Ayesha side and whispered, "I thought I''m going to find my first crush but it turns out he is one of us. And he have some similarities to your facial structure Ayesha. "You are just seeing thing Aria." Ayesha just tapped Aria''s back and dragged her as they followed the two people who went ahead of them. When they got inside the room, Ayesha''s mother introduce her to the man named Clem. "Ayesha this is Clem Williams, he is a well-known designer in New York and he have been designing for me for so long and this will be your first time meeting him, he was the one who designed and made your wedding gown. The one who got your measurement was his asisstant Ms. Claire" Mrs. Gonzales uttered and pointed at a young woman near the door. "Clem this is my daughter, Ayesha." she again said as she face the designer. "Pleasure to meet you Ms. Ayesha. You are more beautiful in person. Your mother always talk about you." Clem said in a very girly tone and he held his hand. "The p???sur? is mine Mr. Williams." Ayesha shook Bernard''s hand. "Just call me Clem. Mr. Williams is to formal." Clem said and Ayesha just nodded. Mrs. Gonzales also introduce Aria to Clem. "Clem Aria will fit her gown first." Mrs. Gonzales said and Clem called his ?ssisstant to bring out Aria''s gown. Mrs. Gonzales gently pushed Aria to the fitting room and the ?ssisstant went in to ?ssisst Aria in wearing. Amd after a minute Aria went out from the fitting room. "Auntie how is it?" Aria asked. "You look like a human now Aria." Ayesha joke and Aria just rolled her eyes on her best friend''s comment and looked at her Auntie Lucia. "It''s perfect for you Aria, you look pretty." Mrs. Gonzales commented as she looked at Aria. The gown with a blue-purple gradient color made Aria look more younger. "You did well Clem." she praised the man beside her. Aria went back and change into her dress. She then went out after changing and gave the gown back to the asisstant. "Now, can we have the final fitting for Ayesha''s wedding gown?" Mrs. Gonzales asked Clem. "Yes Yes of course." Clem called someone to get the wedding gown in the secret room. As soon as the wedding gown is out from the room, Ayesha and Aria''s jaws were wide open. The gown''s designed is simple, it was an off shoulder lace wedding gown and unlike the traditional white wedding gown, the wedding gown is perfectly higlighted with maybe hundreds or thousands of Meridian Blue Swarovski crystal rhinestones. "Mother that is too much." Ayesha was refeering to the rhinestones. She just want a simple white wedding gown but the wedding gown infront of her may look simple but it is quite to much because of those rhinestones. "Ayesha baby, I want to give you the best wedding because you are my only daughter. I asked Clem to alter the design and put some Blue Rhinestone on your gown. It still looks simple though. Go try it on now." Mrs. Gonzales said to Ayesha and pushed her to the fitting room, Clem''s asisstant also asissted Ayesha in putting her gown on. Aria excused herself when her phone rang, she went out from the room and answered the call. While Ayesha is fitting her gown and Aria is talking to someone, Mrs. Gonzales and Clem are talking about the expansion of the boutique, both of them are actually business partners. Clem''s employees are watching as the two of them are happily talking and laughing as they were discussing something. People might see that the two are just close because they are both business partners but for Clem he thinks of Mrs. Gonzales his mother. Seven years ago, he actually ran away from home when his family learned that he was actually gay and it was Mrs. Gonzales and Mr. Gonzales who accidentally found him fainting on the street and they learned that he actually ran away from home and went to the C country using his savings and because they pity him because he came to a foreign country, they gave him an apartment so that he could have a shelter. The couple didn''t bother to inform Ayesha about this. Mrs. Gonzales even gave him the chance to study two years fashion designing in France. And it was Mrs. Gonzales who supported him while he was still starting in the fashion industry three years ago, and she was also the one who encourage him to open a boutique store. Clem is very grateful for what Mrs. Gonzales did for him. Aria came back when she was done talking and Ayesha also came out from the fitting room. She looked at the people in front of her. "How do I look?" Ayesha ask when she saw that all of them were just watching her. "Baby you look so amazing in that wedding gown." Mrs. Gonzales was the first one to comment. Her daughter just look so stunning and elegant in the wedding gown. "Gorgeous" Aria commented still looking at her best friend. "Stunning! Very Stunning" Clem commented after he had recovered from being mesmerized by the maiden''s beauty, he looked back and forth to Ayesha and to the gown. He didn''t imagine that the wedding gown he made could look so perfectly beautiful when worn by this woman in front of him. "She can only be the one who can pull-off the elegantness of this wedding gown" he thought to himself. "What do you think Mother?" Clem asked Mrs. Gonzales. "Perfect" Mrs. Gonzales uttered and looked at Ayesha again. "Well done Clem" she added. Chapter 65 - Spa Massage After Clem made sure that there are no more adjustments for the wedding gown, he looked at Mrs. Gonzales and spoke, "I will personally bring this gown before the day on the wedding" "Okay Clem." Mrs. Gonzales said and the three ladies bid goodbye and went out from the building. "That wedding gown was sick. It perfectly fits on you Ayesha and those rhinestones are so gorgeous" Aria commented as they went inside the car. The driver drove off. "Where are we going Madam?" the driver asked Mrs. Gonzales. "To the mall." Mrs. Gonzales answered. "I also didn''t expect those rhinestones Aria." Ayesha uttered and look at her mother "Mother have you known Clem for along time?" Ayesha curiously asked. "Yes, I have. He is my designer for along time already." Mrs. Gonzales casually answered. "But he called you mother earlier." Ayesha stated. "Well actually, I have known him seven years ago. Well your father and me accidentally found him on the street, he fainted and then we decided to give him one of our apartment and I helped him study as a fashion designer and I was also the one who helped him when he was still starting in the fashion industry. We didn''t told you about him because you were still recovering from the trauma that happened 8 years ago." Ayesha mother said. "I want him to be my friend. I think he is a good person." Ayesha said. Mrs. Gonzales just looked at her daughter. "Let''s have our lunch first. I''m quite hungry already." Mrs. Gonzales said and the three went to Kier''s restaurant. Mrs. Gonzales actually knew that Kier had his own restaurant built in this mall. After they had their lunch, the three of them walk and stroll the mall, they went in from store to store and Mrs. Gonzales bought some stuffs for the girls and when they were tired they walked their way in to the spa, where Mrs. Gonzales would usually have some relaxing massage. And they got inside, they were greeted personally by the manager. "Good Afternoon Madam. Do you want to take the usual service?" the manager asked and she looked at the two ladies beside Mrs. Gonzales. "Yes please" Mrs. Gonzales said and followed the manager. Ayesha and Aria both followed behind, they were looking at the store, it has quite a peaceful ambiance and it made them relaxed a little bit. The three ladies were guided into a room and both Ayesha and Aria saw a three massage beds, the three of them had a body massage. While the three are enjoying their bonding, both Mrs. Salvador and Knight are also having their own mother and son bonding. They just finished their appointment with Knight''s designer and they decided to have a stroll in the mall. "Mother where are we going next?" Knight patiently asked and followed his mother who is now walking and searching for another store. She has been strolling for a while now, buying the things she wanted to give to Ayesha. Knight didn''t argue anymore because he also wanted to give something to Ayesha. His mother bought so many gifts already using his money. "That''s enough Son. I think Ayesha won''t like if we gave her to much gift, I see her as a simple girl. Let''s go home for now, I''m also tired from walking." Mrs. Salvador said and dragged her son back to the parking lot. The mother and son duo went home and it was also the time that the three ladies where done with their relaxation time. "My body felt so light." Aria uttered. "Let''s go" Mrs. Gonzales said and the three went to the parking lot and the driver immediately opened the door when he spotted the three of them. He also got their shopping bags and placed it in the trunk. He then entered the driver''s seat and started the car''s engine and drove off. "Back to the Mansion." Mrs. Gonzales said and looked at Ayesha and Aria who immediately dozed off when they got inside the car, both of them are already relaxed but their eyes are already tired. "I hope you enjoyed our bonding." Mrs. Gonzales thought and she looked at the scenery outside. ----- " I have finally met her." a man''s manly voice echoed as he watched the sunset on his apartment. "Have you spoken to her?" a man spoke in the other side. "Yes I have. We actually have the same facial structure." he said as he remembered how the same their facial structure is. "She will be married soon and I''m invited to her wedding. I was also the one who made her wedding gown." he added, he remembered how beautiful she is when she went out from that fitting room. "You must take good care of her, okay." the man said and the man ended the call. Chapter 66 - Trip Monday morning came, Ayesha woke up and freely stretched her body when she realized that she was laying on a soft bed, she then roamed her eyes around and saw that she is in her room. "Why am I here?" she thought. The last thing she remembered is that she was inside the car and she fell asleep. While Ayesha was thinking, the door suddenly opened. "You are awake" a man spoke. Ayesha look at the person who owns the voice and saw that it was Knight. "You? Why are your here?" she asked. "I was the one who brought you here last night." he said and gave her the tray full of food. " Actually I went here last night because I missed you so much but to my dismay my wife actually feel asleep in the car, so I presented to brought you here in your room because I do not want other men to touch you, except for Grandpa and Father of course. Good thing I was here last night because I got the chance to eat your lips while you were sleeping like a steel." Knight casually uttered. "You sleep here in my room last night?" Ayesha asked. "Yes but I first sent Aria back to the Ventura Mansion, both of you were sleeping soundly. We could not even wake you up." Knight said and he took the spoon from Ayesha mouth. "Let me feed you baby." he uttered and scopped some food and shoved it to Ayesha mouth. Ayesha chewed her food first before speaking again. "Why didn''t you go home last night? After you placed me in my bed." She said while looking at Knight. "It was raining last night and I thought that you would wake up when you realized that I was molesting your face." Knight pouted and Ayesha hit him in the head. "He is still shameless as ever" Ayesha thought. "Here eat some more." Knight shoved some food on Ayesha mouth again. "Still early but you don''t need to go to school for one week. I already asked permission from mother and father. They also made an excuse letter indicating that you will be absent for a week because you will have a family trip which is just actually a lie. It is not a family trip but a honeymoon trip, we will spend some time before the two of us will get married on Sunday." Knight narrated. He was actually the one who planned all about this, he just wanted her to realized her feelings for him. Ayesha''s jaw dropped when she have processed into her brain what Knight had just said. "A honeymoon trip? And only the two of us will go on a trip?" Ayesha confirmed and Knight just nodded. "But our semi-finals is just a corner away from now. I need to personally listen to the discussion" Ayesha reasoned out. She actually doesn''t want to be alone with this man beside her. "Don''t worry about it, I already asked Aria to take down notes for you and she will also tutor you." Knight said and feed Ayesha again. "And besides I already packed your clothes last night when I was done molesting your lips." Knight pointed at the two lagguage beside the door. "Well you stop saying the word molesting? Its creepy." Ayesha uttered. "I was just teasing you baby." Knight said in sweet voice and gave Ayesha a hug and he whispered into her ears, "I love you." Ayesha then felt the twitching and tingling sensation in her stomach. " This feeling again." she thought and she relaxed her body and looked at Knight. "Yes I will be willing to wait for you Ayesha. I love you that''s why I will wait for you until you are ready to say the three words that I have been dying to hear those words to come out from this mouth of yours." Knight claimed Ayesha''s lips, he kissed her passionately and hungryly. He missed her so so much that he even left his documents in his office just to be with her last night. Ayesha could feel so many emotions on the way he kissed her. Ayesha responded to Knight''s kisses, she gave the same intensity. The two were so indulged to what they are doing that they would just grasped some air when they feel that they are out of breath and back to kissing again. Knight laid Ayesha into the bed as they continued kissing, he was about to do the next thing when they heard a knock on the door. Ayesha immediately pushed Knight and she ran towards the bathroom. Knight just laughed and he opened the door. "Dad?" He said when he saw Mr. Gonzales. "Your timing is so great dad." Knight thought. "Where is Ayesha?" Mr. Gonzales asked. "She is in the bathroom." Knight said calmly. "I just wanted to say that be careful on your flight later and please don''t do something while you two are on the trip. You can only kissed her Knight but don''t go to the next level, I want the two of you to get married first before the honeymoon." Mr. Gonzales said and tapped Knight''s shoulder. "I know it''s hard to supress the feeling of doing it but please Knight, marriage first before honeymoon." Ayesh''s father lastly said before walking away. "I almost did father, thank you for interrupting us." Knight thought and he closed the door. He went back to the bed and sat down. "Knight control yourself." He thought again to himself and looked at the bathroom. Ayesha was also thinking about what happened earlier, "Ayesha you two almost did it, who ever interrupted us, Thank you so much." Ayesha thought and she just covered her face usung her palm because of embarassement. Chapter 67 - Private House "Where are we going?" Ayesha asked Knight. The two of them are already inside the car and they are on their way to the airport. Knight is currently holding Ayesha''s hand. "We are going to Switzerland." Knight answered and looked at Ayesha and smiled. Ayesha just rolled her eyes when he saw Knight''s smile. "Uhmm.. Why Switzerland?" Ayesha asked. "We can just stay in your private house and stroll the land and mountain there." Knight looked at her. "Drive to the my private house, we will not go to the Airport." Knight said to his driver. Ayesha looked at him, "Why are we going to your private house?" she ask. "Because you said we can just stay there. So we will stay there for five days and maybe after five days and when we go back to Gonzales Mansion the baby is already developing in your tummy." Knight raised his brows up and down and Ayesha became speechless. "Where did you get all you shamelessness Salvador?" He will be the cause of her death, she just can''t go along with all his shamelessness and jokes. "What about the plane ticket? It will be a waste if you cancel it." Ayesha asked again. "From myself." Knight answered. " Abouth the plane ticket, I have already cancelled it while we were in your house. You sleep first baby, it will be a long ride." Knight said as he placed Ayesha''s head in his shoulder. Ayesha just closed her eyes and sleep. Knight also took a nap. ----- "Aria where are you?" Kier asked her sister in the phone. "I''m at school brother" Aria answered. Her brother is calling her frequently asking if she is still seeing the man, which is Louise. "Are you still seeing the man you asked out for a friendly dinner?" Kier asked. "No, I haven''t saw him." Aria honestly said. She haven''t saw Louise after he gave her that box of chocolate. "Erhh no? Why are you asking me if someone''s courting me?" Aria ask. "Nothing just making sure that my baby sister is still single. You tell me if someone is courting you okay." Kier said. "Okay I will." Aria uttered as she rolled her eyes. She didn''t tell to her brother that she actually agreed to pretend to be someone elses'' girlfriend in exchange for food. "I will go now. Just tell me if someone is courting you okay, he still needs to pass through me before he can finally court you." Kier said and Aria ?ssured him that she will tell him. "Bye baby sister. I love you. Say Hi for me to Ayesha and tell her that I will just send my wedding gift to her. Bye baby my girl friend is already here." Kier said and ended the call. Aria was shocked at first when Kier told her that he actually found himself a girlfriend and he eventually have move on from Ayesha but he will still take Ayesha as his real sister so he will still keep his promise and that he will protect her even if he is still far away. Aria is happy for her brother that finally he had move on from his long time first love. Aria look at her phone when the call ended, she was about to keep it when it rang again. "Hello?" she answered nervously. "Aria, can we meet today?" Clint uttered on the other line. Yes, Aria was expecting that Louise was the one who called her but it was actually Clint. "What time? And what''s the ocassion? Did your mother arrived already?" Aria ask directly. She is still adjusting to Clint''s prescence. "I just want to invite you to have dinner with me in my house." Clint said. "Yes I will." Clint answered and Aria said okay but she will bring her body guard with her, it was actually Kier''s order, that Aria will have her own bodyguard with her whenever Ayesha is not around. "You can bring your body guard with you" Clint said. "Okay Thank you." Aria said and ended the call. The bell rang, indicating that break time is over. Aria placed back her phone inside her bag, she was hoping that he would call her again. ------ When the car arrived at Knight''s private house, Knight immediately opened the door and went out. He asked his driver to carry all the things they have and place it inside the house as he carried Ayesha in a bride-style way. He went inside in the gate first and saw that his house''s door is open. He took a step inside and saw that it was own care taker. "Good Morning Sir Knight." the caretaker greeted as soon as he recovered from being shocked after seeing his boss. "Good Morning also." Knight said and made his way to his own edroom to place the sleeping Ayesha in the bed. After tucking her in, Knight went out again from the room. "Just palce that there." he said to his driver when he saw that all there things are all inside the house. "You can go back now to the Salvador Mansion and please pick us up after five days." he added and his driver just nodded and went out. "Yes I will, my wife suggested that we should have our honeymoon here. She wanted to have a look here." Knight said and smiled. "I''ll prepare and stock some foods on the fridge that will be enough for you for five days." the care taker said. "Thank you Auntie." Knight uttered and his care taker continued what she was doing before living the two alone in the house. After locking the door, Knight went to the room and he laid down beside Ayesha and he just stared at her for a few minutes before he doze off. Chapter 68 - Pretend Evening came, Ayesha opened her eyes, she saw that it was already dark outside. "Was I asleep for to long?" she thought to herself. She immediately sat up when she realized that the room is not familiar to her. She roamed her eyes around and saw a figure beside her. She slowly went close to the figure beside her and saw that it was Knight. Making sure that she won''t wake him up, she carefully close the space between them. She scrutinize his looks, "How can you be so handsome." she said out loud thinking that he is still asleep but Knight is already awake and he is just listening to her. As she looked closer to him, she could feel something building in her heart and a tingling sensation in her stomach. The person beside her is just to much, to handsome and to perfect. "Will you really wait for me? Will you really wait for me to love you back Salvador?" Ayesha asked in a sweet voice. Hearing her voice sounding like that, Knight wanted to hold her and tell her that he is willing to wait no matter what happen. "I''m still accessing my feeling for you but I think that I''m almost there and when the time comes that I would say "I love you", I hope I am not yet to late." Ayesha uttered again as she gently comb his hair using her fingers. "You will never be late baby" Knight thought while he is enjoying what she is doing to his hair. While he is enjoying and feeling the moment of what Ayesha is doing, he felt something soft being damped in to his lips. "Lips?" Knight ask himself as he was feeling the soft object damped in his lips. Because Ayesha was looking and admiring him for a long time she couldn''t restrain herself from stealing a kiss from him. It was just a short and light kiss. "Why am I stealing kisses from you? And why am I the one who is initiating it." Ayesha thought to herself as she stared at the man who is still asleep. "You wouldn''t mind if I steal more?" Ayesha asked Knight even though she knew that he is still asleep. But the man who is pretending to be asleep is already giving Ayesha a permission to steal more kisses from him. "Of course I wouldn''t mind baby. Steal more kisses from your husband." as much as he badly wanted to utter this words out loud, he choose to pretend to be asleep and sadly he could only thought of this words. Ayesha again stole a kiss from Knight and she accidentally bit his lower lip. It was as id Knight''s que for him to stop pretending. "Awww" Knight said as he opened his eyes and looked at Ayesha whose face is still close to his, her eyes is wide and her mouth is open. "What are you doing?" Knight ask Ayesha while he is holding his lip. He could have been an award winning actor because of how good he acts. "Ohh! Was the mosquito big?" Knight ask innocently and curiously. "It was just small." Ayesha answered. "I bet that the mosquito really likes my lips. That she even dare to steal a second kiss from me." Knight uttered. Ayesha looked at him, shocked is visible in her face. "You are awake this whole time?" she asked. "Ohh! No! I was asleep, but the big mosquito bit me that it even made me wake up from my slumber." Knight said, still acting innocently. "You are actually awake this whole time Salvador." Ayesha correctly accused Knight. "So how is the taste of my lips? Did you like it?" Knight''s question made Ayesha feel embarrassed and made her blush like a tomato. "Just forget what I did." Ayesha said as she was about to stand up when Knight grabbed her in the hand and pinned her in the bed. "I want to be intimate with you baby and I didn''t expect that you would actually make the first move." Knight seductively whispered to Ayesha''s ear. "The mosquito''s lips also taste sweet." Knight uttered as his face slowly draw closer to Ayesha''s. Ayesha didn''t utter a word instead she just stared at the man above her. "His breath smells like mint." Ayesha thought to herself while staring at Knight. The two of them just stared at each other, their faces are only inch apart, that Ayesha could smell Knight''s breath and manly fragrance. They are so indulged in their staring contest when someone''s stomach growled and it interrupted them. "You hungry?" Knight ask his wife who is now blushing from embrassment. "Uhmmm.. a little bit." Ayesha confirmed. She is so damn hungry a while ago but because of the food in front of her, which is Knight, her hunger slowly vanish. "Come I''ll cook for you." Knight helped her in getting up. He also helped her in wearing her slippers and coat. After Ayesha have worn her coat, the two of them went out from the house and they went inside Knight''s dirty kitchen, where he cooks his food using only woods. Chapter 69 - Ill teach you "What do you want to eat?" Knight ask as he went closer to a small refrigerator to grab some ingredients. "I want chicken soup with potatoes and carrots in it." Ayesha said as she also walked towards the small center island near the refrigerator. Knight nodded and took the ingredients, Ayesha roamed her eyes around the little house, the dirty kitchen is located a bit far from the center island and the refrigerator, there''s a small sink and a container where all the utensils are neatly arranged. Ayesha didn''t expect that the dirty kitchen would be so neat, it was her first time to see a dirty kitchen and she literally thought that it would be dirty, but the reality is way more better than what she expected. Knight started washing the ingredients and Ayesha watch what he is doing. "Can I help?" Ayesha asked, she felt a little uncomfortable just sitting there but at the same time she enjoys watching him. "Do you know how to cut some carrots?" Knight asked as he looked at the lady infront of him. Ayesha shyly shook her head, she actually have never try cooking any other dishes aside from frying hotdog and egg. "I actually have never tried cooking any actual dishes." She honestly confessed. It is so weird that a lady like her don''t know how to cook and the man in front of her can actually cook delicious foods. "Come, I''ll teach you" Knight said and Ayesha immediately stood up and went to Knight''s side. She is willing to learn on how to cook. "First you should peel the carrot and after peeling, you will slice it into cubes." Knight first demonstrated on what should Ayesha do. "You can just slice it into medium sizes and then you can do the same to the potatoes." he added and gave Ayesha the plastic knife. Ayesha took the plastic knife and she did what Knight had demonstrated earlier. Knight was very satisfied that his wife is a fast learner. "Can you finish that all by yourself?" Knight asked and Ayesha nodded. "I''ll just lit the fire and I''ll start cooking the rice. Be careful on handling the knife." he said before going to the real dirty kitchen where in he would cook. The two of them worked harmoniously, they actually look like a real and loving couple. As Knight was putting the cauldron near the fire, he heard a tiny scream from Ayesha and he immediately went to her. "Nothing, I just cut my finger. But I''m fine now." Ayesha said. She was about to sip the blood from her finger when Knight tightly grip unto her wrist. "You should wash your finger, don''t sip the blood that is coming out. What if it might get infected." Knight worriedly scolded Ayesha as he gently place Ayesha''s finger into the water. "And besides I told you to be careful in cutting the vegatables." he added. Ayesha just rolled her eyes because of Knight''s reaction, she just cut herself and the wound is so small, but because of his reaction, she still felt something that she should not be feeling towards the man in front of him. "Does it hurt?" Knight worriedly ask, Ayedha just shook her head, he then carefully drag Ayesha towards the island counter and he took a small box from a hidden compartment. Ayesha saw that the box was actually a medical kit. "How can this man in front of me be so worried over a small wound. He even got a medical kit hidden in a small compartment." Ayesha thought to herself as she just stare in amazement at the man who is walking towards her. "Give me your hand I''ll treat your wound." Knight demanded. "I''m fine Brother Liwie, this is just a small wound and besides it doesn''t even hurt at all." Ayesha uttered but Knight still insisted in treating her wound, he is afraid that it might get infected. After treating Ayesha''s wound, Knight placed the medical kit back to the compartment and he face Ayesha again. "You just sit there and watch me cook, I cannot let you hold a knife again. So just sit there and wait." He commanded the lady in front of him. "Just sit there and watch me, I cannot let you get wounded again." Knight said in a very authorative voice. "But I wanted to help you and I also want to learn how to cook." Ayesha uttered as she pleadingly looked at Knight. "You can help me by just sitting there. This will only take a couple of minutes so just sit their and watch me, but please don''t strip me. Okay?" Knight playfully uttered. Ayesha just rolled her eyes because of what Knight said, she was about to retaliate but she decided not to and she just sat there, silently as she glance at the man in front of he Chapter 70 - Movie Marathon (1) "Are you just gonna stare at me while I cook?" Knight asked when he caught Ayesha intently staring at him. "I am not staring at you." Ayesha rolled her eyes, "I am staring at the pot. Is it not done yet? I''m quite hungry now." Ayesha added with an annoyed voice. "My wife is a little impatient now. It''s almost done. You can now prepare the utensils." Knight uttered as he took the pots'' lid, Ayesha could smell the delicious aroma which made her tummy to grumble. Knight chuckled when he heard her stomach grumbled, "You are really hungry. The dragons in your stomach started fighting." he teasingly uttered. "Shut up!" Ayesha angrily stood up from where she is seated and stormed out from the place. But she immediately went back inside, "Are we going to eat here or in the dining area inside your house?" Ayesha shyly asked. "Let''s just eat here, I bet the dragons in your stomach will eat your intestines if I would delay your food any longer. Just seat back in your chair and I''ll be the one to serve you." Knight said as he placed the hot pot in the table and took the utensils out. "Let me help you." Ayesha was about to stand up but Knight stopped her. "Let me serve you baby. I want you to be familiar on the way I serve you. You will forever be my queen and I will be your king slash servant." Knight uttered. "So cheesy Salvador." Ayesha felt giddy as she listened to what Knight said but his words are so cheesy and she doesn''t know how to react to it. "I can be cheesy and shameless for you Ayesha." Knight seriously said. "Well can I start eating now?" Ayesha asked when her stomach grumble for the second time. "Yes you can eat now baby." Knight chuckled as he handed the rice to Ayesha and he also sat down. "Do you like it? Is it delicious?" Knight immediately asked when Ayesha started eating. "It is very delicious. Thank you for cooking." Ayesha said as she started munching her food again while Knight just keep staring at her every move. "What are we gonna do for the four remaining days?" Ayesha asked as she glances at Knight who is still staring at her. "Well we can go to the mountains and do fishing in the streams, or have a picnic and catch some bunnies. But I prefer staying here at home and just spend the time cuddling with you." Knight answered. " I also prefer having some exercise with you." he added. "If stares could kill, I am probably laying on the floor and bathing in my own blood right now." Knight uttered as he shivered from what he thought. "I prefer you being dead." Ayesha heartlessly said. "Wife why are you being so heartless and cruel on your own husband? What have I done in my past life to be a battered husband?" Knight dramatically asked. "Why did you pursue teaching? You can be a successful actor if you just pursue acting. And hey you are not even a battered husband, did I even beat you? And you look so gay when you are being so dramatic" Ayesha said as she had a spoonful of rice into her mouth. "What did you say?" Knight seriously asked. "I said so much which line do you want me to repeat?" Ayesha asked. "The part where you said I am gay" Knight said. "You look so gay when you are being so dramatic" Ayesha repeated what she said and Knight stood up. "Let me show you if you can still call me gay." Knight picked Ayesha up from where she seated and carried her in a bridal style. "I''m taking you back inside the house and I''m gonna show you that I''m not gay." Knight seriously uttered and walked towards the door. "I believe you, you..you are not gay. I was just kidding, please put me down now." Knight halted when he heard her cracked voice and looked at the woman who is now starting to tear up. He immediately place Ayesha back on her feet. "Ssshhh why are you crying?" Knight immediately asked when he saw her tears flowing down to her cheeks. Ayesha started sobbing, "You...you scared me, I am not really serious when I said that you are gay but it was also partly true that you look gay when you acted so dramatic. ", she muttered between her sobs. "Baby please stop crying, I will not do anything to you. I am just joking, Please stop crying now." Knight coaxed the woman in front of him, he embrace her tightly. "And I won''t mind if you call me gay." he added. "I''m sorry." Ayesha apologise as she tried to calm herself down, she was just startled when he said that he is taking her back inside the house with his serious voice. "Sorry baby if I startled you. I will not do anything to you without your consent and without you being married to me." Knight sweetly said. "Can I continue eating now? I''m not yet full." Ayesha separated from Knight''s cuddled and look the man in front of her. Knight chuckled, he wiped Ayesha''s tears and mess her hair, "Let''s continue eating, the dragons in your stomach is not yet fully satisfied." Knight said and the two went back to the table. "What movie do you want to watch?" Knight asked. "I want to watch After, Aria has been recommending that movie to me but I don''t have any spare time to watch it." Ayesha said. "Are you sure you wanted to watch that movie? Have you even seen the trailer of that movie?" Knight asked the woman in front of him. "Nope not yet but Aria told me that it was a romantic comedy movie so I didn''t bother watching the trailer." Ayesha honestly said. "You pick another movie." Knight said. "Baby just pick another movie as long as it is not After." he thought and drink some water because he could feel that the atmosphere is getting hot. Ayesha took her phone and started reading, "What about fifty shades of grey? Fifty Shades of Darker? Fifty Shades of Freed? Longest Ride? What about Pride and Prejudice?" What Ayesha said cause Knight to choke from his drink. "Who the hell suggested that movies to you?" he asked despite the difficulty of talking. "Uhmm Aria" Ayesha innocently answered. "Let''s just watch how to train your dragon. It is much better than the movies you mention." Knight said. "Okay fine let''s watch it, but let us not get close to each other." Knight said seriously. "Shit, she just called me baby." he happily thought in his head. "Okay" Ayesha happily answered and she continued eating her food. "Let''s also watch fifty shades later." Ayesha added happily. "Aria, how dare you suggest this movies to your innocent best friend. I might let Louise punish you after this five days vacation. O God Almighty please help me control myself later." Knight said silently. ---------- "Achooo" Aria sneezed again for the third time. "This is the third time, is someone missing me?" she thought to herself. "Aria are you still there?" a man''s voice spoke. "Yes I''m still here Clint." Aria answered. "So let''s have dinner tomorrow evening, my mom would like to meet you and I want to introduce you to her as my girlfriend." Clint said on the other line. "No, I''ll pick you up at six, just text me the address of your house." Clint said. "Okay, I''ll just text it to you. I''ll hung up now, bye." Aria uttered and ended the call. "Tomorrow is the start of my job as his pretend girlfriend, what a chaotic situation did I enter myself into?" Aria thought and closed her eyes when sleepiness pulled her to the dream land. Chapter 71 - Movie Marathon (2) A young man is blankly staring outside his window, thinking about the girl whom he had just a conversation a few minutes ago. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn''t even feel the presences of the person walking towards his direction. "Clint darling why are you still awake?" an angelic voice woke Clint back to his senses. Clint turned around and saw a beautiful face owned by a middle-aged woman. Clint stared at the woman in front of him and smiled. He picks a blanket from his bed and then walked towards the woman and gently place the blanket on her shoulders. "Mom, why are you still awake? It''s cold here in my room, you should wear more clothes since your body is so s?ns?t?v? to the cold surroundings, you should be mindful on your own health and you should be in your bed fast asleep now, I know that you are tired from your flight earlier." Clint uttered as he faced his gorgeous mother, the woman''s face looks young, you can never guess her real age because of her young appearance. "Well I cannot sleep." The woman stated as she looked at his young sons'' face. "Do you want to drink some tea before you sleep? I''ll go ask the servant to prepare some tea for you." Clint was about to go out when his mother halted him. "No need, I already ask someone to prepare a tea for me." The middle-aged woman uttered and stared at his son. "So why are you still awake?" she asked again. "I spoke with my girlfriend a while ago and I told her that you wanted to meet her tomorrow" he answered without any hesitation. Clint is trying his best to hide his nervousness, he knew that his mom would do something once she finds out that the relationship between him and Aria is fake. The middle-aged woman is staring intently at her son, "You better make sure that your relationship with that girl is genuine and that you truly love each other. You know better what I can do to you and that girl, and once I learn the truth that you two are just pretending, I will immediately arrange your marriage to my Mr. Williams daughter, Morgan. You know me Clint, I don''t want you hurting other girls'' feelings because that is not what a real man would do and that is not what your late father has taught you." Clint''s mother said seriously. "Rest ?ssured mother, I love my girlfriend and I am sure that she is the woman I want to wait at the altar and will be the mother of my children and your grand-children." Clint''s words made her mother feel ?ssured. "Very well, I will now go back to my room. You should drink your milk first before you sleep. Good night my baby, mommy loves you." the woman gave her son a kissed on the cheeks. "Good night mom, I love you too." Clint responded and gave a kiss on his moms'' forehead. Clint watched her mother as she went out from his room, as the door closed, Clint let out a heavy sighed. "Aria I''m very sorry for dragging you into this mess." Clint thought while looking his bedroom door where his mother just went out a couple of seconds ago. --------------------- Knight was busy setting up the ??ptop and the projector for their movie marathon when he heard a soothing voice spoke behind him, "Is the movie ready?" Ayesha asked Knight, she just went out from the shower, the whole living room was enveloped by the fragrance of the shower gel that Ayesha used. Knight was stunned for a minute and he was trying to control himself from doing something to Ayesha. "Control yourself Knight, you already knew that your wife is so alluring but you must control yourself." Knight thought to himself while still looking at his future wife who is now drying her hair. "What movie do you want to watch?" Knight asked the lady who is now walking towards his direction. "Fifty Shades of Grey." Ayesha said and sat beside Knight who is also slowly moving away from Ayesha. Ayesha secretly smiled when she saw what Knight did and an idea popped into her mind. She slowly moves closer to Knight. "Baby can you please move a little bit farther away from me?" Knight asked hoping that the woman would do what he asked. "I''m very comfortable with my position here." Ayesha uttered which made Knight to let out a sigh. Ayesha is staring attentively at the screen and Knight on the other is trying to control himself while looking at the woman whose attention is fixed on the movie she is watching. He dare not to have a glimpsed on screen. "Baby do you want to eat some popcorn?" Knight sweetly asked the lady who is still laying on the sofa, using his ??p as her pillow and staring intently at the screen. Knight just wanted to escape from his future wife''s alluring face and figure because instead of having the wedding first, he might do the thing that comes after the wedding. "I''m good baby! Christian Grey is so handsome." Ayesha blurted out. "She called me baby again" Knight thought to himself. "Hey baby! I am much more appealing and much more handsome than that guy!" Knight said to Ayesha. He is quite jealous when she said that Christian Grey is handsome. "You are JUST handsome brother Liwei." Ayesha teased Knight. "Oh by the way Aria told me that there is a book for this movie, can you buy a set for me baby? I want to read it." Ayesha added as she looked at Knight who is also looking at her. "Are you sure you want to read the book of that movie?" Knight wanted to confirm if Ayesha wants to read the book. "Uhhm I didn''t finish the whole book." Knight honestly confessed, he didn''t finish reading the book because he thought that it was just to much for him. "So you have the whole set?" Ayesha asked again and Knight just nodded. Ayesha immediately got up and faced Knight. "You don''t need to borrow and read the books of that movie, we can just perform what they are doing." Knight teased Ayesha. Ayesha rolled her eyes, "Shameless" she uttered and Knight just laughed at her. "So! may I pretty please borrow your books?" Seeing her pleading eyes and innocent face, without thinking Knight grabbed Ayesha''s face and claimed her lips. Ayesha was stunned for a minute and before she could react, Knight had already deepened the kiss. His kisses where aggressive as if telling her that he had been longing to claim her lips again. Drowning from his kisses, Ayesha eventually responded, following his lead. Knight separated when he felt that Ayesha is having a hard time breathing. He lean his forehead to Ayesha''s forehead, Ayesha is still catching her breath. Her face is red as a tomato. "I love you baby." Knight said as he ??r?ssed Ayesha''s face and plant another kiss on her lips. "I love you so much" he added and gave her a hug. "Ahem" Knight cough when he saw the screen, "Do you still want to continue the movie?" Knight asked when he realized that the movie was on the part where Christian Grey and Anastasia Steel are doing something. Without looking at the screen, Ayesha knew what they are doing and her face is as red as a ripe tomato. "I want to sleep, please carry me to my bed." Ayesha said, she even raised her arms like a baby which made Knight smiled at his little wife. He happily obliged to his wife''s request and carried her in a bridal style towards their room, not even caring if the movie is still playing. "Young Master" the servant bowed to the young man. "He is still not awake and according to the doctor, his vital signs are doing well. He might wake up soon." The young man raised his head and looked at his secretary, "You may go now" he briefly stated and continued reading the documents. "I''ll leave now young master." The young man''s secretary was about to leave the room when his master spoke again, "Where is she now?" the young man asked without looking at his secretary. "Young master, Ms. Gonzales is on a vacation with her soon-to-be husband." The secretary uttered. "Do you want me to send a gift to her?" he asked. "No need, I want her to enjoy everything she had for now. You may go now." The young man said coldly and the his secretary immediately went out from the room. The young man stood up and went closer to a big portrait. He stared at the portrait, "Enjoy and cherish everything that you have for now my love." Chapter 72 - Red and White Roses When Knight reached their room, he immediately laid Ayesha into the bed, the young lady had fallen asleep in his arms. Knight is staring admiringly at his woman, if he hadn''t controlled himself earlier maybe this woman is laying down in the bed right now fully n?k?d and he is probably worshipping her. "You can really sleep immediately huh." Knight thought as he covers Ayesha''s body with the blanket, he took a glance at the lady and gave her a kiss in the forehead, "Good Night baby. I Love You" "Hmmm" Ayesha groan as she changed her sleeping position. Knight stood up and went near the window, he took his phone and dialed a number. After several rings the person finally answered the call. "Boss why did you call?" Knight could hear his secretary''s drowsy voice. The poor secretary is already fast asleep when his devil boss made a call. "Please order a bouquet of five hundred red and five hundred white roses and deliver them here early in the morning." Knights'' order made Louise to be fully awaken. "YOU CALLED ME JUST TO ORDER SOME BOUQUET OF ROSES?" Louise shouted because of frustration. "YOU CAN JUST PICK SOME ROSES THERE AND YOU CAN ALSO ADD SOME TULIPS IF YOU WANT. YOU HAVE A FIELD FULL OF ROSES YET YOU STILL CALLED ME TO BUY A BOUQUET OF ROSES? YOU ARE REALLY RUTHLESS AND EVIL BOSS." Louise added. Knight''s left brow twitched when he heard his own secretary shout at him. "And why are you shouting at your own boss?" Knight asked in a cold voice. "Do you want to have another vacation?". Louise quivered when he heard the word vacation. "But boss I''m really serious about what I said earlier, you should be the one to pick some roses for her. It is more romantic than buying a bouquet from a store, besides you own a big field there. Don''t just use those field as your source of income, use it also for your blooming love life. And I swear that Ayesha will love and appreciate if you do what I said about you picking the roses yourself." Louise said in a serious yet playful tone. "Fine! I will just bring her there tomorrow." Knight uttered and ended the call. He placed his phone on top of the table and walk towards the bed and laid beside Ayesha. He wrapped his arm around her waist and hug her tightly, he shut his eyes and let his body rest. On the other hand the man who has been disturbed from his sleep just sat down on his bed, frozen. Louise still can''t believe that he had survived a life and death experience from his Demon Boss. Being with Knight''s side for so many years, Louise exactly knew the real personality of the man who just called earlier. "How can I go back to sleep now?" Louise thought as he looked at the time on his phone. "He actually called me at twelve midnight just to order a bouquet of roses for her future wife. When can stop seeing my boss being so head over heels to his future wife? He is really doting on her." Louise sighed as he got up from his bed and went to his office. He sat down and looked at the stack of papers on his desk, Louise sighed again as he feel so down. "Since I cannot even go back to sleep, I will just finish this paper works. Soon you will get yourself a girlfriend, Louise." The young secretary cheered himself as he started reading the papers one by one. --- The sun is still hiding, yet Knight is already wide awake. He shifted his sleeping position and face the woman who is still sleeping soundly beside him. Knight looked at Ayesha, his eyes is full of love and admiration for the young lady. He then gently ??r?ssed her face, "She is so cute when she is asleep." Knight thought and carefully stole a kiss from the young lady''s lips, afraid to wake her up. After a couple of minutes of staring at her wife''s face, Knight decided to cook some breakfast for Ayesha, he gently stood up and made his way out from the room. "I guess I woke up to early" Knight thought when he saw that it is still dark outside. He went to the living room to keep the ??ptop and the projector that they used. Knight smiled when he thought about what happened between him and Ayesha in the sofa last night. After keeping all the things and tidying the living room, Knight made his way to the kitchen. He took some ingredients from the refrigerator and placed them on too of the counter island. He took his phone from his pocket and dialed someone''s number. "I will be going to the field later. Please prepare everything for me, I will bring my wife with me so tell your subordinates that today is their day-off." Knight said firmly. "Copy that boss". The man answered and Knight ended the call. He placed his phone back to his pocket and started cooking their breakfast. After a couple of minutes, the dishes are ready. Knight placed them in the tray, he then walked towards their room, when he opened the door, he saw Ayesha sitting on the bed, fully awake and she was catching her own breath and was covered in her own sweat. Knight place the tray on the table beside their bed and he immediately went to Ayesha''s side. "Hey baby what is wrong?". Knight asked but the young lady didn''t answer him instead she just sat there and hug him. The two of them just stayed motionless for a five minutes. Knight is just ??r?ssing Ayesha''s hair and it made Ayesha feel a little bit more relaxed. "What''s wrong?" Knight asked again when he noticed that Ayesha is relaxed. "I just have a scary dream, but I''m alright now." Ayesha said as she looked at Knight and smiled. "Here I made you some breakfast." Knight took the wooden tray and place it infront of Ayesha. "Also drink that milk." Knight pointed at the glass of milk. "Eat up. I''ll bring you somewhere later." Knight said and gave Ayesha a peck on the forehead. He stood up and went to open up the curtains. The bright sunlight illuminated the whole room. Ayesha started eating and Knight went inside the bathroom to take a shower. Chapter 73 - Virgin Eyes While Knight is busy taking a shower, Ayesha is also enjoying her food. "He can really cook delicious foods." Ayesha thought as she looked at the bathroom''s direction. She just stared at the bathroom''s direction. "Are you now gonna accept that you have already fallen for him not to long ago?" Ayesha''s good conscience asked. "Me? Have already fallen for him? I am still accessing myself whether I have feelings for him or not." Ayesha thought. "You must not develop some feelings for him, you don''t even know if he is showing his real true personality when you two are together." Ayesha''s evil conscience stated. "Why can''t she have feelings or can''t be in love with Prince Knight, he is the most handsome man I have ever met and besides he took care of Ayesha very well. He prepare delicious food for her." The good conscience pointed out. "Still she can''t possibly have feelings for him and be in love with him, maybe he have some evil motive that is why he is so caring and sweet to Ayesha." The evil conscience retaliated. "Another in-denial girl is hiding her true feelings. You have already developed your feelings for him, you just need to accept it. You two are getting married, he will be happy if he will know that you also love him." the good conscience said. "I can''t be possibly in love with him. Not now that I have my memories back." Ayesha is so lost in her thoughts while drinking her milk, she didn''t even noticed Knight coming out from the bathroom. "Can you please where some clothes." Ayesha uttered as she cover her eyes. "How can he come out from the bathroom without wearing anything. And why is it getting hot in here." Ayesha thought to herself as she wiped her sweat using her other hand. "Oh my baby Yesha is shy. Well you don''t need to be shy, you can look at me freely you know. You can even touch them, I won''t mind at all." Knight is at his teasing mode again. The young lady picked a pillow and throw it right into Knight''s direction. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Ayesha shouted on top of her lungs. "YOU DIDN''T EVEN WEAR YOUR UNDERWEAR? FUCK MY VIRGIN EYES. OH MY GOODNESS MY EYES!" Ayesha shouted hysterically. Knight''s towel just fall to the ground. "Shit! I''m sorry baby." Knight uttered and hurriedly went inside the bathroom, he didn''t even have the time to pick the towel. Ayesha''s face is as red as a ripe tomato. "He-he is.. He is.... he is actually.." Ayesha is totally frozen on the bed. She was so shocked from the view she had seen just a minute ago. --- Meanwhile in a place where Ayesha''s bestfriend is being cornered and interogated by some students. "Miss Aria, why is Goddess Ayesha still absent?" one student asked. "Sorry to inform you my dear classmates. Your Goddess Ayesha will be absent for five days, she is on a trip with her parents." Aria said cutely. "How am I going to live? I will not see Miss Ayesha''s face for five days?" One student uttered and he even held into his ?h?st as if it hurts so much. The other students were also overreacting and it made Aria feel annoyed. "HEY ALL OF YOU! YOU ARE ALL OVERREACTING!" Aria shouted and all of her classmates keep their mouth shut. "The dragon is angry" They all thought as they looked at the young lady infront of them. "She will be back on monday, you will not all they by just not seeing her." Aria have already calm down, all the students went back to their seats, afraid that the dragon might be angry again. "This students really love my bestfriend. Ayesha you really have a complicated life." Aria thought, "I am so bored without you, I am feeling a bit sleepy again." Aria was about to take a nap whenshe heard a familiar ringtone. It was her phone''s ringtone, she picked her phone and answered the call. "Hey, am I disturbing you?" The man on the other line asked gently. "No! I was just about to take a nap, our class teacher is not yet here." Aria replied. "Oh yes yes, I haven''t forgotten about it. I was also thinking on what should I wear." She is indeed a professional lier. "You are already beautiful, you don''t need to dress up in a fancy way. So I''ll fetch you later at six." What Clint said made Aria blush. "Okay" She briefly replied and the phone call ended. Aria didn''t even bother thinking of what she would wear, just hearing Clint''s compliment boosted her overloaded self-confidence. Aria just close her eyes and take a nap, not even bothered whether the class teacher have arrived or not. Chapter 74 - It can still grow bigger The atmosphere inside the car feels so awkward, Ayesha is staring at the scenery outside, the beautiful green color helped her forgot the scene she saw earlier, while Knight take turns in glancing at the road and to where Ayesha is sitting, he also let out a few heavy sighs. The young lady hasn''t spoken a single word to him after the incident in the room happened. They are on their way to the rose field and Knight couldn''t take the silent and awkward atmosphere, so he initiated a conversation. "Baby, about what you saw earlier, uh I''m so sorry. I didn''t-'''' Ayesha interrupted Knight, "I''ll pretend I didn''t saw anything." She said coldly. "Baby please forgive, I really didn''t mean to show you my uhm you know." Knight said in a low voice. He too was so embarrassed about what happened earlier, he didn''t expect that his towel would fall off. "I forgive! Please don''t open that topic anymore." Ayesha said in a low voice as she hid her face in embarrassment. Seeing her reaction, Knight had the urge to tease her, "So is it big? Does it suit your preference?" He asked suddenly and it made Ayesha glare at him. "SHUT UP!" Ayesha shouted and she covered with the pillow on her hand. Knight let out a loud laugh when he saw how red Ayesha''s face. His wife reaction is the cutest reaction he would never get tired of watching. Knight stopped the car in the middle of the road, he still wanted to tease her a little bit. "Why did you stop?" Ayesha asked when she realized that they are not moving anymore. Knight just smiled at her, "You didn''t answer my question." He said. Ayesha just glared at him, "You shameless, pervert old man." "You don''t need to be shy wifey." Knight said in a sweet voice as he leans closer to Ayesha, he could smell her breath, "She used my mint flavored toothpaste" he happily thought. "Hey you are to close" Ayesha pushed him away from her. She was afraid that he might heard her own heartbeat. Silence enveloped the atmosphere again, they just stared at each other''s eyes. "I know baby! Let us just go back home and start making our first baby. But I''m afraid that we are too far from home, let''s just do it here in the car." He added and it made Ayesha gone pretty mad. "ARGHHH YOU SHAMELESS PROFESSOR, HOW CAN YOU SPEAK LIKE THAT IN FRONT OF YOUR STUDENT." Ayesha hit him with a pillow. Using one hand, Knight grab the pillow and tossed it at the back of the car. Without breaking the eye contact, he leans slowly towards her again and grab her body towards him. Knight looked at Ayesha, his eyes are filled with so many emotions that Ayesha couldn''t even identify. He went closer and closer; Ayesha closed her eyes as she waits for his lips to touch hers. Knight smiled when he saw her reaction, he whispered softly into her ears, "This shameless professor in front of you can speak shameless things in front of you because you are not my student anymore, you are already my legal wife and you will also be the mother of my children." He leaned back away from Ayesha, seeing her still closing her eyes, he asked in an innocent voice. "Are you expecting for my kiss?" Ayesha immediately opened her eyes and opened her mouth to say her excuse, "Me? Expecting for your kiss? Of course not, I closed my eyes because some dust went inside my eye and it''s painful." Knight just giggle, "Oh really?" he asked as he raised his eyebrow. "Just drive already old man. Where are you taking me by the way?" Changing the topic was her last chance to escape his question. "You will see it later." Knight uttered as he started the car''s engine and continue driving. "Baby, let me remind you again, it can still grow bigger." He teased again when Ayesha was about to take a nap. "When we get home later, I will really do what you just said, we will do it until morning." Knight stated and let out a laugh when Ayesha gave him a middle finger. "Where did you learn that?" Knight asked but Ayesha is already asleep. He just sighed, "My little wifey is getting vicious and wild every day. I should teach her a lesson." Knight took a glance at Ayesha before focusing his eyes on the road. Their destination is not that far from Knight''s private house but it took them thirty minutes before reaching the rose field location. Knight drove straight inside a tall gate and parked the car in a spacious parking lot, he turned the car''s engine off, took a glance at Ayesha and went out from the car. He didn''t bother waking Ayesha since he still need to finalize his surprise for her. As soon as Knight closed the car''s door, someone shouted his name. A man in his forties came running towards Knight direction. "Boss Knight you came late. Ricci told you that you must be here before 9 o''clock." The man uttered as he stops right in front of Knight and gave Knight a cup of coffee. Knight took the cup and gave the man a hug, "Uncle King, you don''t need to call me boss. I''m sorry that I was late, I have some business with my wife earlier." What Knight said made the man laugh. The two of them started walking where the rose field is located. "You should take it slow, you''re a healthy young man, your wife must be tired. You should just have postponed your surprise for her." The man uttered and gave a meaningful look at Knight, who on the other hand choked at the coffee he was drinking. "Hack! Hack!" Knight coughed, "It''s not what you think uncle. I was teasing her earlier in the car that is why I was late in coming here." Knight explained. "No! We haven''t done "that" thing. Actually, she is my student and I''m her professor." Knight confessed to his uncle. "Professor? Aren''t you a wealthy tycoon?" The man asked. Knight narrated the whole story why he became a professor. "Wow, you are really serious towards that young lady." The man commented. "I am very serious towards her uncle, she is the only woman whom I have love all these years and I want to spend my life with her. That is why I am selling this rose field to you because I want to donate the money to the foundation, that my wife and her late brother have built." Knight looked at the wide field full of beautiful roses. When he was still in New York, he asked Louise to hire someone to look after for Ayesha. He knew where she was going and that was the time, he learned that both Gonzales siblings own a foundation. He also asked Louise to investigate about the foundation, and he learned that Ayesha was the only one who is supporting the foundation. That is why he wanted to also help his wife, because he could feel in his heart that Ayesha truly values the foundation more than her life. That is why he would do anything just to make her happy. "Before you sell this land to me, I would like to make your surprise successful first. I have already settled and finalize the last touches for your surprise." The man uttered and gave a tap on Knight shoulders. "You have grown into a responsible man. Make her happy and treasure her Knight." "I will uncle. Thank you so much and please don''t call me "Boss" later. Please pretend that you are my good friend who lent me this whole place." Knight replied and he went back to the car after he confirmed that everything is in place. Knight arrive back at the car, he saw Ayesha staring at him. "Where have you been?" Ayesha asked. But Knight didn''t answer her instead he also asked her a question, "Did you just woke up?". Ayesha gave him a poker face. "You supposed to answer my question Salvador, not asked me with another question." Ayesha stated. Knight just laugh at her, "What am I going to do with you, I''m falling very fast, will you catch me?" Knight asked again. "I am already in position to catch you, so are you ready to fall?" Knight uttered. "That was so cheesy Salvador." Ayesha shivered as she pretended that she felt the cheesiness of Knight''s words. "Here wear this, I''m going to take you somewhere." Knight handed Ayesha a blindfold but the young lady just turned her back, signaling Knight to put the blindfold on her eyes. Knight smiled as he gently places the blindfold on Ayesha. "Where are you taking me?" Knight guided Ayesha out from the car. "It is a surprise." The young man guided his wife gently and carefully until they have arrived to were Knight''s surprise is located. "Can I take this blindfold off?" Ayesha asked when she felt that they have stopped already. "No not yet baby." Knight let Ayesha''s hand go. "Hey brother Weiwei don''t let go of my hand. Hey where are you." Ayesha asked as she extended her both hands to feel Knight''s presence. "Relax, I''m right here behind you. I''m going to take your blind fold now. I hope you will like it." Knight whispered gently into Ayesha ears as he finally removes the blindfold. Ayesha opened her eyes, her vision is a little bit blurry, she has to adjust her vision first. "You prepared all of these for me?" Ayesha asked the man who is just staring at her. Knight didn''t reply instead he asked her back, "Did you like it?" "I didn''t like it. I super love it. Thank you for preparing all of this and thank you for bring me here" Ayesha''s voice was so gentle and her smile, her smile made Knight''s heart to beat faster, he is falling for her harder. "I am glad that you love it." He smiled and pulled Ayesha closer to him. "Did you own this place also?" Ayesha asked out of curiosity. "No, my friend owns this field, I asked his permission to borrow this place to surprise you. I was supposed to give you a bouquet of roses this morning but I remembered that this place existed so I decided to take you here." Knight lied, he cannot tell her that he actually owns this land and that he is also selling this land today for her foundation. Ayesha didn''t ask more questions instead she just enjoyed the scenery in front of her. The thought of receiving a flower from him makes her feel giddy already but seeing him doing this surprise just for her made Ayesha''s heart skip for a bit. "Are you hungry? It is almost lunch time." Knight asked. "I''m not yet hungry." As soon as Ayesha gave her reply, her stomach growled. "You really came prepared this time Mr. Salvador." Ayesha commented. "Hey I am always prepared." Knight retaliated as he helps Ayesha sit on her chair. "Let''s eat your stomach might growl again later." Knight teased and Ayesha just glared at him and both of them let out a loud laugh. Seeing both of them happy, Knight''s uncle was the most satisfied among all the people who are secretly watching the scene. Chapter 75 - Meeting the Uncles and the Mother "Sir aren''t you gonna show up? You said you would present your gift to that couple over there. Besides you have travelled so far, don''t you want to introduce yourself to young master Knights'' wife?" The mans'' trsuted staff questioned him, the man was so busy staring at Ayesha and Knight. "Yes yes, I almost forgot the reason why I''m here today. Prepare the dessert, I want to introduce myself to Knight''s wife." The man uttered as he took off his apron and fixed himself. "Am I presentable?" The man asked the other man who is also staring happily at the two couple. "Yes yes, you look presentable." The man replied without even looking at the man who asked for his opinion. The man turned his head to speak to the man who is also looking at Knight and Ayesha, "King, Am I presentable?" he asked. "You look presentable with that Chef attire Rook. You look quite professional." Uncle King replied trying to hide his laugh. The man didn''t noticed anything different from Uncle King''s replied. The man patted Uncle King''s back and said his thanks. The staff immediately went back to the kitchen and pushed the tray towards the man''s direction. The man once again fixed his clothes and walked first as the staff followed right behind him. The two couple, Ayesha and Knight, were laughing happily as they were teasing each other. "Am I interrupting your lovely date?" The man with a baritone voice spoke as soon as he stop right beside Knight. "Uncle Rook!" Knight exclaimed as soon as he saw the person who just spoke. Knight stood up and gave the man manly hug. Ayesha also stood up to show some respect for the man who just arrive. "What are you doing here?" Knight asked in excitement. "Well, I''m here to give you your wedding gift. I''ve heard from my brother that you are getting married. And this must be your future wife." The man uttered as he went closer to Ayesha''s place. Knight went to Ayesha''s side and wrapped his arm around her waist as if marking his own territory. "Correction uncle she is already my wife. We have already registered our marriage, I want to hold a wedding for her so that the people would recognize her as my legal wife." Knight said firmly. "Ayesha this is Uncle Rook, Uncle Rook this is Ayesha my wife." he added as he introduce the two to each other. "Pleased to meet you lady Ayesha." The man extended his arm and Ayesha took it and politely replied, "The p???sur? is mine Mr. Rook." "Oh! Just call me Uncle Rook, you are also my nephew from now on." the man uttered and Ayesha just gave him a sweet smile. "So you already introduce yourself to Knight''s wife and you didn''t even bother to ask me if I also want to introduce myself?" A man suddenly spoke. "I thought that you don''t want to introduce yourself." Uncle Rook said without even turning his back around to see who the person is. "Well I''ve change my mind."the man said and walk closer to Ayesha. "Did you enjoy Knight''s surprise for you, young lady Ayesha?" The man with a British accent asked. "I love his surprise Sir." Ayesha replied politely. She didn''t even wonder who the man is as soon as she saw him. "You are also here Uncle Bishop?" Knight asked. Surprised is written all over his face when his other uncle showed up. He only asked one of his uncles to be part of this surprise but he didn''t expect that the two were also present. "I wouldn''t miss this chance to see my nephew being a sweet and spoiled husband to his wife. And beside I can''t wait to see this young lady who is an addition to the Salvador family." Uncle Bishop uttered and gave Ayesha a smile. "Well, we are just here to introduce ourselves to Ayesha and I want to give you this present to you also." Uncle Rook said and pushed the tray beside the table. He opened it and a delicious looking dessert made Ayesha''s eyes twinkle. "Thank you for the gift Uncle Rook." Ayesha thanked the man politely. Her eyes were filled with excitement as she can''t wait to taste the dessert. "So we will go now. We can''t disturbed your date anymore. Pleased to meet you again Ayesha." Uncle Rook said as he pull his brother out from the place. He can already sense that his nephew needs more time with his wife. "Why did you drag me?" Uncle Bishop asked in a low voice. "Can''t you sense that your nephew is damn bored with your face." Uncle Rook teasingly replied. "Hey! We have the same face you bastard." Uncle Bishop replied and the view of the two man who is obviously fighting over something vanished from Ayesha and Knight''s sight. "I didn''t know that you have two uncles. And they are also twins. Their facial features are the same." Ayesha immediately uttered as she sat down and Knight on the other hand place the cake on the table. He can see his wifes'' happy face when she saw the dessert. "Well now you know, they aren''t actually related to me. They are my fathers'' best buds when he was still in college. They treat each other as blood related brothers. They were actually triplets. Uncle King is the eldest, you haven''t meet him yet, he is a businessman. Uncle Rook is the second, well obviously he is a chef. And Uncle Bishop is the youngest and he''s a doctor." Knight looked at Ayesha as soon as he stopped talking. "Why did you choose to be a professor?" Ayesha asked out of nowhere. "I want to look after you." Knight honestly replied and Ayesha just smiled at his reply. "Can you please atleast tell a lie. Argh! My heart won''t stop pounding. Am I feeling giddy from what he just said?" Ayesha thought to herself. "Here''s your cake, I know you wanted to taste that." Knight place a slice of cake in to Ayesha''s plate and the young lady delightly said her thanks and started eating the cake. Knight just stared at his wife, he is thankful for his uncle''s present because it made his queen happy. "It''s getting dark, aren''t we gonna go home yet?" Ayesha asked out of the blue. "After you finish eating your cake we will go home." Knight said and Ayesha just nod her head. ------- While Knight and Ayesha where having their moment somewhere in the mountains, another couple where also busy communicating with each other. "Are you done preparing?" Clint asked Aria on the other line of of the call, the young lady is busy looking for her bracelet. "Where did I place that thin?" Aria said out loud. "Are you looking for something?" Clint asked. "Ah there you are." Aria uttured again. "I was just looking for my bracelet but I''ve found it. I''m already done. Are you already near?" Aria asked as she looked at herself in the mirror one last time. "I''m already here at your front door." Clint said and Aria heard the sound of the doorbell. "Alright! I''ll go downstairs" Aria said and ended the call. While Aria is looking at herself at the mirror for one last time, her mother is already at the front door. Mrs. Ventura opened the door and greeted the young man, Clint. "You must be Clint?" Mrs. Ventura asked. "Good Evening Madam Ventura, I''m Clint p???sur? to meet you." The young man greeted Mrs. Ventura politely. The Mistress of the House had taken a like at house polite the young man is. "The p???sur? is mine. Please do come in." Mrs. Ventura invited Clint and the young man gladly accepted the madams'' invitation. "Please take a seat, would you like to drink something, a tea or juice perhaps?" Mrs. Ventura asked. "Thank you for the offer Mrs. Ventura but I''m fine." Clint said. "Okay, please call me if you need anything. I''ll go back to the kitchen now. My daughter will be here in a minute. If you''ll excuse me. " Mrs. Ventura said and left Clint alone in the living. The madam was doing something in the kitchen and she just left it to attend to the person who rung the doorbell. Clint who was left alone in the living room, roamed his eyes around the house. The house was styled in a modern way but it still had the touches of a vintage vibes because of its furnitures. There were musical instruments placed in a corner near the grand piano. "Does she play music?" Clint asked himself when he saw the instruments. He stood up when he saw some frames that were placed in a cabinet and there is also a big family portrait hung in the middle of stairs. He didn''t notice it earlier even though the frame was really huge. "She''s so cute when she was still a baby." Clint blurted out. "I know that I''m cute when I was still a baby." A sweet voice spoke right behind Clint. Clint turned his body around and saw a beautiful woman in simple midnight blue dress. "I didn''t noticed your prescenes." Clint said. "Because you were busy looking at my pictures. Are you falling for me now?" Arias'' questioned gave Clint a shock. "I was just joking." Aria immediately said. "Let''s go, I bet your mom is already waiting for us." Aria said again. Clint offered his arms and Aria immediately place her tiny hand. "Mother I''ll go now." Aria shouted from the kitchen. "Take care and enjoy. And Clint please bring my daughter back home before midnight." Mrs. Ventura said, she was standing in the kitchen door. "I will Mrs. Ventura." Clint said and the two went out. "Why is your mom so messy?" Clint asked out as soon as they got inside the car. Mrs. Ventura was covered with flour when she bid goodbye to the two. "Oh! She''s a pastry chef. I think she was trying to make some desserts again. My mom is bit clumsy but she''s a great baker. My dad loves her desserts so much. Sorry if you saw her like that." Aria explained. "It''s okay." Clint uttered. "You look pretty tonight." He finally said it. "Just for tonight?" Aria asked jokingly. "Well everyday." Clint stated. "Just start the car Mr. Clint. I don''t like to keep ypur mom waiting for us because of you." Aria said in a bossy manner yet it was cute to hear. Clint let a little chuckle because of how bossy and cute Aria is, and yet he gladly followed Aria''s demand and the two went off to see Clint''s mother. Chapter 75 - Daughter-in-Law "You should inform your mom that we might get a little bit late." Aria suggested. There was an accident that have caused a little bit of delayed for all the vehicles to move. "It''s okay. We won''t be stuck here longer, I think it is just a minor accident." Clint said and then the vehicles started moving again. "See I told you" Clint uttered again and started to drive slowly. As soon as they got outfrom the traffic, Clint drove a little bit faster and soon they reached the venue where his mother is patiently waiting. Clint parked the car in the reserve parking spot infront of the restaurant and as he was about to go out, Aria spoke. "Do you think your mother will like me?" Aria asked nervously, even though she is just pretending as Clint''s girlfriend, she still want his mother to like her. "You look lovely Aria. My mom will surely love you." Clint replied and went out first from the car and went to open Aria''s door. Aria took one last deep breath before going out from the car. Clint offered his left hand and Aria gladly took it and the two made their way to the the restaurant. As soon as they were inside, Clint immediately found his mother. Clint carefully ?ssisted Aria towards his mother''s direction. There are only few customers in this restaurant since it is only exclusive for its members. "Mom! Did you wait for to long?" Clint asked his mother as he kiss her on the cheek. The middle-aged woman just glare at his son and look at Aria''s direction. "Wow! Is she really Clint''s mother? She looks like his sister!" Aria thought as she just stared at the woman in front of her. "You must be Aria?" Clint''s mother asked Aria who just came back to her senses when she heard the woman''s soft voice. "Her voice is also very calm and mesmerizing" Aria thought before she answered Clint''s mother. "Good Evening Madam, I am Aria. It''s my p???sur? to meet you" Aria said in a very calm voice. She is just trying her very best not to look so nervous in front of this mesmerizing woman. Clint''s mother gave Aria a hug, "Oh dear please don''t be nervous. I will not bite you.Come please take a sit." She then gently grab Aria''s arm and ?ssisted her to the table, and gave another glare to her son when Clint didn''t pull the chair for Aria. "Clint be a gentleman, pull the chair so that your girlfriend can sit now." Clint''s mother said and Clint immediately followed his mother''s orders. Aria sat down, she is still staring at Clint''s mother, she didn''t believe what she just saw. " I thought that she is a very strict woman" Aria thought and drink some water to ease her nervouness. "Please don''t be nervous around me dear, soon you will be daughter-in-law." The madam said happily and Aria almost choke because of what Clint''s mother said. "I believed that you are the one for my son. So tell me more about yourself dear and please don''t call me Madam, just call me Mommy Claire from now on." Clint''s mother said. "Uhm mom should we order something first, I bet Aria is already starving, aren''t you honey?" Clint said sweetly to Aria who is still quite grasping what Clint''s mother just said earlier. "Oh yes yes, I have already told the chef to prepare the dishes." Clint''s mother said as she called the waiter to serve their food. "Are you still nervous?" Clint whispered into the young lady''s ear. Aria just shook her head and she smiled at Clint. "You two really look perfect for each other." Madam Claire commented. "Aria please tell me more about yourself as we wait for the food to be serve, I want to know more about my future daughter-in-law." The madam added. "Mom! It''s to early for you to call Aria as your future daughter-in-law." Clint bu?? in since he only wants Aria to pretend as his girlfriend in order for his mother to stop areanging him to marriage meetings with her circle of friends daughters. "But I really like Aria for you son, she is really beautiful and very polite. She will be a good mom to your kids and I also want her to be the mother of my future grandchildren. So I want you to marry her." The madam uttered. "Mom! We are here because I want you to meet my girlfriend. It''s a bit to early for you to think about our marriage." Clint said. As the mother and son are talking, Aria is left in her own little world, "Daughter-in-law? Marry? Wife? Kids? Grandchildren? Wait I''m just here to pretend as a girlfriend, why is madam claire getting all excited about this? Besides I already have someone I like, even though I don''t usually see him but still I like him." Aria was so lost in her thoughts that she didn''t even realize that the mother and son pair are already arguing about her future with Clint. Clint was about to speak again when his mother cut him off. "So Aria dear, I still don''t know your fullname." Clint''s mother said to Aria who is just sitting quietly on her chair. "Uhm well, my fullname is Aria Ventura." Aria shortly replied. "Hmm Ventura? I think I have heard that family name before. By any chance are you the daughter of the famous pastry chef, Chef Arianna Ventura?" Clint''s mother asked. "How did you know my mother, Auntie Claire?" Aria asked back. "Oh my! What a small world. Well! As you can know, I''m quite a fan of your mother. She owns a cafe in New York and I''m a regular customer there and your mom and I were also classmates in college. We both took up Culinary Arts. She is really a talented baker. And I told Aria dear to call me Mommy Claire." Madam Claire said happily. Aria was a little bit surprised because Clint''s mom knew her mother. "Oh! I think I would prefer calling you Auntie Claire for now. If you don''t mind" Aria said politely, she prefers calling Clint''s mom that way because she not yet totally comfortable calling her mom specially it''s their first time meeting. "And I also didn''t know mom owns a cafe in New York. But I''m glad that you knew my mother, Auntie Claire." Aria uttered again. "Oh well if you wants to call me that, I wouldn''t mind but soon if you''re okay and comfortable to call me mom, I would be very happy." The madam said. "The food is coming, let''s eat first before you two continue taking." Clint said and all the dishes where place on the table. "Aria I didn''t know what you like so I just told the chef to cook all their specialty in this restaurant." Clint''s mother said and Aria just smiled. "Well, I''m not picky with foods so I''ll try every dishes here, Auntie Claire. Thank you." Aria said politely. "What do you want to eat first honey?" Clint asked Aria, he knew that she is quite fond with foods. "Lobsters please. Thank You" Aria said calmly, she''s hiding all her excitement after seeing so many variaty of dishes. Clint immediately took a lobster and started peeling it. Madam Claire smiled when she saw his son''s actions towards Aria. "I''ll definitely make you two marry each other." She thought while staring at the couple infront of her. Chapter 76 - Interrogate "Do you want to eat some shrimp, honey?" Clint asked Aria who just gave him a nod. Happiness is visible on the young lady''s face which made Clint smiled. "Okay I''ll peel some for you." He uttered and started peeling the shrimp. While Clint is busy peeling, the two ladies continued chatting. Clint''s mother looks like she is really enjoying Aria''s presence. The two were mostly talking about fashion. "Do you have any plans on studying fashion designing?" Clint''s mother asked, she is just curious if Aria wants to study fashion designing since the young lady seems to have some knowledge and talents for fashion designing. She might become a successful fashion designer in the future. "Well, I do have some interest in fashion but I would like to become a chef" Aria answered and ate the shrimp that Clint placed on her plate. "Oh! If you want to be a chef, why did you took a business course, dear? Why didn''t you just took culinary ats instead?" Madam Claire asked again. "This is like a job interview." Aria thought before answering the question. "I just took up a business course now because of my best friend. I don''t want to leave her and besides, I still can use the things I learn when I too will have my own business someday." Aria answered again. After eating, the two ladies keeps on chatting. "Hey honey, shall we go now? I promised your mom that I''ll return you before midnight." Clint stated, cutting the conversation of the two. If he didn''t interrupt them, their conversation won''t stop. "Oh right! It is getting late now. I didn''t even sense that it is getting late. I really had fun talking with you Aria dear. I can''t wait to call you my daughter. I hope we can chat again but I''ll be back to New York tomorrow. But I will come back here again if I have sometime." Clint''s mother stood up and so does Aria and Clint. Madam Claire gave Aria a tight hug and kiss on the cheek. "Be careful on your way home. I''ll see you soon again dear. Thank you for coming." Madam Claire uttered before letting Aria go. "Thank you also Auntie Claire for meeting me. I had so much fun chatting with you." Aria smiled and the madam turned her head to her son. "Now you young man, please be gentle with your Aria. Don''t make her cry and if ever you two got into a fight even if it is just small matters, sort it, Okay? You are the man and you are older than Aria, so you should never let her sleep with a heavy heart. Do you understand young man?" "Yes mother, I will do my best to make her happy." Clint gave her mother a kiss on the cheek and he held Aria''s hand. "So, shall we go now honey?" Clint asked and Aria just nodded, she then faced Clint''s mom, "Auntie Claire we will head out now. Be careful on your way home. Goodbye Auntie." Aria uttered. "I will! So you two go now." Madam Claire said and the bid their goodbyes again and went ahead. Clint opened the car''s door, Aria immediately went inside and Clint made his way to the shotgun. He started the engine and drove to the main highway. "Uhm Aria, thank you so much for today. I really appreciate your help and you did well in pretending" Clint started the conversation. "Oh you''re welcome. You were also a great actor. And besides I also enjoyed talking with your mom. Like she is so cool except for the part where she was like interrogating me." Aria laughed a little when she remembered how Clint''s mother asked her those questions. "And also the dishes were so good that my belly was so full. Thank you for letting me met your mother today. If you want me to pretend again, I''ll be willing to help you again. And you know what the payment is." Aria jokingly said. " Well! My mother just got so excited and you did well answering all her questions." Clint praised Aria. "You can rest for a while, I will wake you up once we arrive at your house." Clint added. Aria just gave a nod and closed her eyes. Clint use his jacket as a blanket and covered Aria''s shoulders to avoid her getting cold. All throughout the ride, Aria was asleep and Clint would sometimes glance at the sleeping young lady. Once they arrive at the Ventura Manor, Clint turned the car''s engine. He went out from the car and opened Aria''s door, he then gently wake her up. "Hey! Aria, we have arrive at your house." He gently shake her shoulders. Aria opened her eyes and then she realized that they have arrive at her house, "Oh! I''m sorry for sleeping all throughout the ride. And thank you for getting me home safely." She said and went out. She then handed Clint''s jacket, "Thank you for letting me use that" she stated again. "You''re welcome and also thank you for accompanying me tonight. You should go in now before you will catch a cold." Clint said. Aria just nodded and bid her goodbye and said her thank again. Clint didn''t went back inside his car, he waited for Aria to got inside the house. And when the young lady was out from his sight, he then went inside his car and drove away. A big smile is visible in his face. As for Aria, she locked the main door and was about to go upstairs when a person suddenly pop out from the kitchen that made her jump a little. "So how was your date?" Her mother suddenly spoke. "Mom! You almost gave me a heart attack." Aria said while grabbing her ?h?st. "Why does your steps don''t have any sound? And why are you still awake?" she questioned her mother. "Well I don''t know and I was just getting some tea for your father" Madam Ventura shrugged her shoulders and asked Aria again, "So how was your date with the young man, Clint? I like him for you baby." Madam Ventura uttered as she sips the tea. "It was not a date actually, I just met his mother." Aria answered. "His mother was pestering him to have a girlfriend but instead of a girlfriend, she was always sitting him up for arrange marriage so he asked for some help. And so I pretended to be his girlfriend." Aria gave an explanation so that her mom won''t asked her some weird question on why she have to meet Clint''s mom so early. "Oh is that so? Well, i hope you had fun tonight. You should get some rest now. Goodnight baby." Madam Ventura uttered. Aria said her goodnight and went upstairs. As soon as she got inside her room, she immediately went to the bathroom and washed up. After a couple of minutes she went out from the bath and threw herself to her bed. She stared at the ceiling, "I didn''t expect that Clint''s mother is so easy-going. I also got to eat a lot." She thought before letting her self drown into sleep. ------- "Hey baby! We will be going back tomorrow! Aren''t you going to sleep now?" Ayesha asked Knight who is still wide awake. "I can''t sleep. I''m too happy to fall asleep." Knight said. He grab Ayesha''s hand and gave her a tight embrace. When they got home from their simple date, Ayesha has been calling him baby. And he was just so happy that his sleepiness didn''t even bother to come. "Well if you want to sleep, just sleep. I''ll watch over you." Knight uttered and Ayesha gave him a suspicious look. "I won''t do anything to you. I know you are not yet ready." He said and Ayesha just look at him before closing her eyes and feeling the warm embrace from her husband. "Good night baby" Knight whispered to Ayesha''s ears and gave her a kiss on the forehead. All throughout the night, Knight was just watching the sleeping Ayesha and he would sometimes steal some kisses from her. Chapter 77 - Inlove Two days had already passed since Knight and Ayesha came back from their trip. And during those two days, Aria kept on asking Ayesha on what happened during their trip, and until now she still keeps on pestering Ayesha to tell her what happened. "Yesha! Why won''t you tell me what happened on your trip with Mr. Salvador?" Aria asked. "Are you hiding something from me, your best friend?" Aria said as she grabs her ?h?st while looking at Ayesha like she feels hurt because Ayesha is keeping secrets. Ayesha sighed and grab Aria''s shoulder, "I am not hiding something from you Aria. I can''t tell you what happened during the trip because it''s just there is nothing to tell Aria." Ayesha uttered and she continues arranging her things. Their class has just ended, Ayesha stood up and dragged Aria out from their classroom. "Are you sure you are not hiding something from me?" Aria asked again and Ayesha reassured her that she is not hiding something, which is a total lie. "Let''s go to the cafe nearby, I want to eat something sweet." Ayesha''s paced became so fast that it looks like she is running away from someone, which is true. She doesn''t want to bump and sees her fiance on the corridors. She still remembered what he did on the day, that they were so supposed to go home. "Hey why are you so fast? Are you that hungry?" Aria asked as she tries to keep up with Ayesha. The two young ladies arrived at the cafe, Aria was the one who ordered their food while Ayesha went to look for a table. She found a table near the window and sat there. While waiting for Aria, she took her phone and saw some messages and miscalls from Knight. Ayesha opened the message and read them all. "Hey baby! Where are you? Let''s have some snacks together!" "Are you still mad at me?" "Baby! Please answer my call!" "Ayesha where are you? Let''s talk!" "Baby, please talk to me. I''m sorry! Promise I won''t do it again ????. I swear! Please forgive me baby! After reading his message, Ayesha didn''t bother replying and she even turned her phone off. She looked at the counter''s direction and saw Aria walking towards her direction. "The food will be served!" Aria uttered and sat down on the chair across Ayesha. "I''ll come to your house later. I''ll teach you about the lesson. I can''t believe that Mr. Fiance took you on a trip during the most crucial days of your student life." Aria just shook her head, thinking about what Mr. Salvador did make her head, ache. Ayesha stared at Aria, "Are you in love?" She asked her best friend. "Me? In love? Yeah maybe I''m in love, I''m in love with foods" Aria jokingly said. "Not with foods Aria. With someone! Are you in love with someone?" Ayesha asked again as she eyed Aria suspiciously. "How can you say I''m in love?" Aria asked. "You look blooming! Your skin is glowing" Ayesha pointed out Aria''s obvious reasons. "Ayesha I think you need to get your eyes checked. I''m not in love okay?" Ayesha was about to say something when the waiter came and serve their food. Ayesha keeps on staring at Aria, "I know she''s a little bit childish but somethings have changed. Is she in love with Clint? Maybe something happened between the two of them while I was away." Ayesha suspiciously thought. "Stop staring! I''m not in love with someone and if you are thinking of Clint, I am not in love with him. I think he has someone his in love with." Aria defended. "Okay okay! You are not in love with someone but you are in love with food. But if ever your heart would beat for someone, tell me okay?" Ayesha said and Aria nodded. Even though Aria is older than her for just a couple of months, Aria is still like a baby, she''s childish and her maturity would depend on the situation. "Wait before I forgot! You should also need to tell me what happened when you meet Clint''s mother. It should be detailed Aria." Aria nodded and tried to change the topic. "Let''s not talk about me anymore. Let''s talk about you now Ayesha." Aria said and she went closer to Ayesha. "Your wedding is coming, are you excited?" She whispered in a very low voice. "Oh! Sh*t! I almost forgot about the wedding" Ayesha honestly said. The wedding was scheduled a few weeks when she had fit her wedding dress and when the schedule of her semi-final exams was out, she forgot about the wedding. "You forgot?" The shock was written all over Aria''s face. Her best friend just went on an advanced honeymoon-trip with her husband and she forgot about her wedding. "I was thinking about the exam. We will be very busy now you know." Ayesha uttered and sips from her yogurt shake. "You have a point! I''m having doubts about my grades during the two major exams last month" Aria worriedly said. Aria and Ayesha are both smart it is just that Aria doesn''t review that often. "Let''s not talk about the wedding anymore. I still have a few weeks left before that day would come. I must first focus all my attention on the exam" Ayesha stated and Aria just agreed to her. -------- "Why can''t I reach her? She is still mad at me" Knight thought, his losing all his motivation to work for today. "Mr. Salvador are you alright?" One of his co-teacher, Mr. Takashi asked. The teacher seems worried about him because his aura is so gloomy. "I am alright Mr. Takashi! Thank you for asking" He politely replied to the P.E teacher. "Oh! Good to know! Are you not going to have some snacks? Break time is almost done" Mr. Takashi asked. " I have already eaten something" Knight replied. Louise made some snacks for him and Ayesha but she is still mad at him so he ate it all. "Very well! I''ll head now Mr. Salvador" The P.E teacher went out of the faculty room and Knight was the only one left in the room. He buried his face on his desk still waiting for Ayesha''s reply. "I shouldn''t have done that to her" Knight sighed deeply. He was just teasing her that day, he didn''t expect that "down" there would react when he saw his wife''s reaction. Chapter 78 - Butterflies and Sorry The sun has gone to rest, the moon and stars take its place as the whole sky is painted with black and darkness surrounds its environment. The young lady of the Gonzales family just arrived from school, after greeting her parents and grandparents, she immediately made her way to her room. Feeling tired, her body gladly surrenders itself to the soft and comfy bed. "What a day!" She said to herself and stared at the ceiling as she remembers what Aria mentioned when they were having snacks in the cafe. "So I''m totally getting married to my professor a few weeks from now huh! Do we have to live together?" She can''t help thinking if she and Knight would live together or live separately. Just thinking of the possibility that they would live in the same house-made Ayesha''s face burn from embarrassment. "Wait! Ayesha why would you feel embarrassed when you two would live in the same roof. It''s not like your gonna do what married couples do. You don''t need to worry yourself about that matter. Besides he can only give you simple kisses, he won''t do anything without your permission." She pointed out for herself. "But that old man is so shameless that I cannot let my guard down when I''m with him and his kisses are far more dangerous for me also" she worriedly voices out. Ayesha lost herself from her surroundings that she didn''t even realize that someone is already standing at her balcony, smiling while listening to her monologue. "So did my kisses gave you bu??erflies on your stomach?" The mans'' baritone voice made Ayesha jump from her bed. "Did you hear what I said?" She asked when she saw the person she has been avoiding since this morning, standing at the glass window on her balcony. Knight just smiled at his wife, "Yes baby and I''m glad that I''m giving you bu??erflies on your stomach." "Who said you are giving me bu??erflies? You are not giving me bu??erflies Salvador and what are you even doing here in my room? This is trespassing Mr. Salvador!" Ayesha glared at Knight as she tried to distance herself from him. "Trespassing? I''m just here to make love with my wife. I think that instead of giving you bu??erflies, I''ll just give you a baby. So let''s make the baby now so that when the wedding comes our child is already developing on your belly. Sounds great right?" Knight jokingly said. "Stop joking Salvador!" Ayesha said in a firm and cold voice. "Baby!" Knight move towards Ayesha and because of his long legs, he immediately reached her before she could open the door. He grabs her hands and embraces her tightly. "Let go, you old man!" Ayesha struggles to free from Knight''s hug. "I don''t want to let you go! I was just joking. I''m here to say that I''m really sorry about what happened during that day. I didn''t mean to do that, I was just... I just lost my control when I saw you uhm.. when you don''t have your clothes on. And when I saw how beautiful your embarrassed face is and when you had that reaction on your face when I pinned you down on the bed. Baby! Wifey! I''m sorry that I lost my control and that I let my d?s?r?s take over. I almost did that "thing" to you without you getting ready and without your permission." Knight''s voice is full of sincerity and regrets. Ayesha closed her eyes as she tries to remembered what happened that day. -A few days ago- Knight was busy putting their baggage inside the car, it''s time for them to go home since Ayesha needs to ask Aria for the class notes. After making sure that there is nothing left he went back inside the house. Not knowing that Ayesha just came out from the bathroom, and without knocking, he opened the door and went inside. "Baby Wifey! I just-" Knight didn''t have the chance to finish speaking when he saw her appearance. Ayesha who was just about to grab her clothes was frozen on her place when she saw Knight. The sight of his wife standing in front of him, n?k?d, lit a fire on the torch that has long been forgotten and his beastly d?s?r?s are trying to surpass and overtake his body. "Oh my God! Please get out!" Ayesha shouted as she tried to cover her body. Knight, who has been holding himself to not touch his wife, lost his control when he saw his embarrassed face. With his long legs and a big stride, he pinned Ayesha down to the mattress. Seeing his wife''s alluring appearance, all his thoughts were clouded by his d?s?r? to take her, Ayesha struggled but Knight was so strong. He ravished her lips like a hungry beastman and roamed his hand on her waist. Ayesha let out a groan when Knight bit her lower lip and Knight took the chance to slid his tongue inside her mouth. Living her mouth, he passionately gave wet kisses on the neck and when he was about to go down, a faint sob made him stop and was taken aback when he saw and realize what he just did to Ayesha. "Oh shit! Baby! I''m sorry!" Knight apologizes as he extended his hand to embrace Ayesha but the young lady slapped his hand and ran towards the bathroom. It took Ayesha an hour before going out of the bathroom. All throughout the ride, Ayesha was asleep, avoiding to hear and have a conversation with the man beside her. Knight just keep silent because he knew that she won''t listen to him or let him speak to her. "Why didn''t you restrain yourself more? I know that you could do that" Ayesha asked. "I have always been restraining myself not to touch you, baby. But seeing you in that situation without clothes and your ?r?t?? expression just argues me to want you. I am your husband but I cannot still touch you. I want you to be mine and mine alone. I want to be one with you, body and soul." Knight explained. "Just thinking that another man would have the chance to see you in that situation made my heart throb in pain and this burning d?s?r? to be possessive to you is just so overwhelming. I want to be possessive, I want you to look at me, only me but I''m also just a human being, afraid of losing you" he tried his best not broke his voice as he is on the verge of crying. He tightened his grip on Ayesha''s waist. The two stayed for a couple of minutes, embracing each other. Clearing her mind, Ayesha broke the silence between them, "I forgive you!" she said. Knight let his hand go and face Ayesha. "Thank you, baby! I love you so much" Knight happily said and gave Ayesha another hug. "I will wait until she would willingly let me do it." Knight thought and embrace Ayesha tightly. ------- "Make sure to prepare all the things I need. I change my mind! I will attend her wedding." A man in a black suit told his secretary about the changes that he needs to prepare. "Yes, young master!" The secretary bowed his head and excused himself. The man took his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose. "I''ll introduce myself to you on your wedding day, My beloved Ayesha!" he thought as he stared at the big portrait across his table. Chapter 79 - Grandchild "Well! Are you gonna stay here for tonight?" Ayesha asked the man whose arms are still snaked around her waist. "Do you want me to stay here for tonight?" Knight asked back while showering kisses on Ayesha''s forehead. "Aria is coming tonight, she will teach me about the lessons that I''ve missed when we were on a trip" she uttered and buried her face on his ?h?st. "You smell great!", she added. " Do you like my smell?" Knight asked and Ayesha just nod, Knight kissed her on the forehead again. "I''ll give you my perfume so that you won''t miss me that much". he added. He will be delighted if Ayesha would also use the same perfume that he uses. " And baby, sad to say but I will not stay here for tonight. I''ll let you focus on studying. Your exam is approaching." Knight said as he let go of Ayesha and face her. "After the exams, you will officially be my Mrs Salvador in the eyes of our family members and friends" Knight added and gave Ayesha peck on the lips. He was about to kiss her but was interrupted by a knock outside Ayesha''s room. "Young Miss, dinner''s ready!" A servant informed Ayesha. "I''ll be right there" Ayesha answered and a footstep is heard indicating that the servant has already left. "Let''s have dinner first before you leave" Ayesha suggested but Knight declined the offer, "I would love to have dinner with you but I have to decline, I still have some work to do." "Oh! It''s okay there are still so many days that you can have dinner with us." Ayesha smiled at Knight. Knight lightly pinched Ayesha''s nose, he can feel her disappointment. "Don''t be disappointed baby. After our wedding, you will live with me and you can see my handsomeness every day and every night" "Who said I''m disappointed? I''m not disappointed okay?" Ayesha asked in a defensive voice. "Okay! Okay! You are not disappointed. Baby, I should head home now. It''s getting late and I bet your parents are already waiting for you." Knight uttered. "Okay, be careful. Drive slowly." Ayesha kissed Knight on the cheeks and the shameless man pouted. "I want it on the lips" Knight pouted his lips more and Ayesha just gave him a tap on the cheek. "Not a chance," she said and went out from her room. Knight just smiled and made his way out from the balcony. He still needs to walk back to the front gate, Louise who became his driver is waiting for him. Ayesha immediately sat down on her chair once she entered the dining area. "Eat now dear. Your grandma was the one who cooked for tonight." Ayesha''s mother uttered. "I will mother! Grandma''s cooking skill is extraordinary." Ayesha said with a big smile on her face. "You silly child. Now eat up before the food gets cold." Ayesha''s grandma handed her the rice. While Ayesha is busy filling her plate, the elders continued chatting about the business and Ayesha just help herself. She really doesn''t interrupt them when they talk about business matters. While the Gonzales family are having their lively dinner. A car stopped in front of the Manor. Aria who decided to have a sleepover came out from the car, carrying a big backpack. "Young Miss, do I have to fetch you tomorrow afternoon?" Aria''s driver asked. "No, you don''t need to fetch me, uncle. I''ll be staying here until our exams are over." Aria replied and her driver bowed and drove away from the estate. "Miss Aria! Young Miss Ayesha is having dinner with her family. Would you like to wait in the living room or in her room?" The servant asked Aria. "I''ll just go to the dining area" Aria uttered and was about to head there when she remembered that she still has her belongings with her. "Uhm! Can you please put these things in Ayesha''s room?" The servant quickly took Aria''s belongings, "Of course Miss!" the servant said. "Thank you!" Aria said politely and smiled at the servant and made her way to the dining area. "Hello! Good evening!" Aria greeted everyone as soon as she reached the dining area. "Oh! you''re here Aria! Please join us" Ayesha mothers said. "Your grandma cooked for tonight". " Oh may! I miss the dishes that you personally cook Grandma" Flattered by what Aria said, the old lady of the Gonzales Family laughed. "You and Ayesha are alike, you know how to flatter this old lady. I will cook again tomorrow if you want my dishes that much" Ayesha grandma said. "We love that Grandma! " Aria''s excitement is so obvious that Ayesha kicked her feet. But Aria just glance at Ayesha and smiled sweetly. "Grandma! Can we also have some desserts tomorrow? I want to taste your homemade chilli ice cream and sweet cassava cake" Aria requested. "Of course dear" The elder lady gladly uttered. A servant placed a plate and utensils in front of Aria. "Eat up Aria! Are you gonna stay tonight?" Ayesha''s mother asked. "Uhm Auntie can I stay here until our exams are over? I want to teach Ayesha the lessons she has missed when she went on a vacation. I already have asked my parents permission to stay here for a while." Aria looked at Ayesha mother as she asked for permission. "Of course! You can stay here. You don''t need to ask my permission, you silly child. You are not a stranger to us you know. Ayesha''s mother uttered. "We also love if you teach Ayesha some of the lessons she missed. I was really hoping that my grandchild is already developing on her tummy but I think those two haven''t done the deed yet." A bit of disappointment is noticeable on the madam''s voice. "Don''t worry dear! I know that our grandchild will be developing soon. I trust our son-in-law" Ayesha''s father uttered as he tapped his wife''s shoulder. "I also want to see a mini version of our dear Ayesha. We are already getting older and older before we want to leave this world we want to hold out great-great-grandchildren." The elder patriarch uttered. Ayesha''s head ached when she heard her family spoke about having a grandchild. She just shook her head to ignore the pain, she can''t believe that her family is already wishing for a baby, from her and Knight. The Gonzales family, along with Aria just continued eating after chatting about the topic of "wanting a grandchild" ended. After the dinner, the Elders along with Ayesha''s parents stayed in the living room to continue their chat about the business while Ayesha and Aria bid their goodbyes and went upstairs to stay in Ayesha''s room. "Hey! You flattered grandma so much plus you also requested for desserts. You know that once she is flattered like that she will cook so many dishes." Ayesha whispered to Aria as soon as they entered her room. "Oh don''t be worried. I can eat all the dishes that Grandma cooked" Aria ?ssured her best friend. Ayesha just sighed, "Can you please not make your gluttony be known to others" For someone who has a big appetite like Aria''s and never getting fat. Girls who have difficulties in maintaining their figures when they eat too much would curse her to death. "Yeah yeah, whatever!" Aria ran off towards the bed and throw herself on it. "We''ll start the lesson later. My brain can''t function yet. I ate too much and my stomach''s digesting it real slowly." Aria uttered as she rubs her belly. "Stand up! Don''t lay down." Ayesha pulled her best friend up. "So while we are waiting for your brain to function well. Tell me what happened during your meeting with Clint''s mother." "Oh right! Well as you know, I wasn''t expecting that Clint''s mother is so easy going like my expectation to her was a total opposite when I new and talked with her face to face. She was also expecting me and Clint to get married. She believes that I''m the one that is compatible with her son" Aria didn''t state the part where Clint''s mother order so many foods because she knew that Ayesha would just say that she''s a glutton. "I should meet Clint''s mother, we think alike" Ayesha suggested. "No way! You are also thinking that I and Clint are so compatible with each other?" Aria asked and Ayesha just nodded. "When I first saw you with Clint, I saw some spark." Ayesha honestly confessed. Aria''s mouth dropped when she heard her best friend''s reason. "I don''t think me and Clint will be an item in the near future beside I already like someone". Aria thought as she just stared at Ayesha. "So what else did you talked?" Ayesha asked curiously. "Uhm! Well, it''s more like of an interrogation than of a talked" Aria said as she tried to remember all the question Clint''s mother have asked. "I think all mothers would really ask questions from the girlfriends of their sons" Ayesha uttered. "Have Prof. Knight''s mother asked you some questions?" Aria asked. "No! I haven''t had a proper talk with his mother" Ayesha shyly confessed. "Let''s just study now, I don''t want you to ask more questions about why I haven''t talked with her". Ayesha said firmly. The truth is, she doesn''t have an answer to Aria''s questions. That''s why it''s much better for her to avoid her best friend''s curious mind. Chapter 80 - Just a quick announcement! Hi readers!

Over the weekend, Ayesha was so busy studying the lessons that she missed with Aria as her tutor. They also took the chance to review the lessons that were recently taught to them. Knight on the other hand was busy checking and signing the important documents, the other day,Louisse just came barging into his house, with him are pile of important documents that needed his signature. Knight could still hear his secretary''s wh?n? as soon as Louisse saw him. "Boss why are you neglecting your duties? I''m such a poor secretary having an irresponsible boss. I don''t have time to date now because of you." Louisse tossed the documents on his boss face. Knight''s brows twitched because of what Louisse did. "You-"'' Knight wasn''t able able to talk because Louisse cut him off. "Boss! You need to comeback now. I cannot act as your substitute for a long time. You know that I also need to have time to relax and date." Louisse said while thinking of someone he wants to see. "I am not you, who already have a fiance. I need to work hard to catch my girl before someone else would claim her." he seriously uttered. "Pack your things and go manage one of my company overseas. Don''t comeback until you solve the problem there." Knight immediately pushed his secretary out, giving him no chance to refute. Louissealways had this attitude where he become childish when Knight won''t focus on his office works. They have been together for so many years and he still can''t believe that Louisse is hiding that attitude of his. He also knew that Louisse have a severe trauma that cause him to be unable to get near to any woman. Did his illness got cured? Knight just pinched his nose bridge when he remembered what happened. It was already midnight and he is almost done with his work. He took a glance at his phone and is tempted to give Ayesha a call. God knows how much he wanted to hear her voice. "No! You must restrain yourself on calling her. She''s busy studying for her exams. And you on the other have things to deal in you company. You have only a week left before your marriage. You can still endure it." Knight reminded himself as he chooses to continue finishing his work. That night, Ayesha was also busy reviewing the last subject she had. Aria on the other hand is already asleep and loudly snoring. Every 5 minutes, Ayesha would check her phone. Hoping that Knight would send her a good luck message. She misses him so much. "Maybe he is busy right now." Ayesha thought, she continued reviewing but ended up closing her notes because she is distracted by Aria''s loud snore. ----- Aria who was an early bird, is standing at the side of Ayesha''s bed. Scratching her head while looking at her best friend, who sleeps like a rock. ''''Yesha! Wake up! We need to go to school early so that we''ll have time to review.'''' Aria said as she tried waking Ayesha up. This is her third time trying but she just sleeps like a rock. Aria climbed up into Ayesha''s bed, she decided to kick her since shouting at her is no use. ''''Yesha! Yesha! Wake up!'''' She kicked her bu??, Ayesha just glared at her. ''''Five minutes'''' she said and went back to sleep. Aria''s jaw dropped because of what Ayesha did. What on earth. ''''Wake up!'''' she started jumping on the bed when her second plan failed. ''''We need to review!'''' Aria uttered again as she jumps higher. ''''Oh! This is so much fun.'''' "Please stop that Aria, you are making me feel dizzy.'''' Ayesha ?r??n?d as she hit Aria''s fit using a pillow. ''''I will not stop until you get up and separate yourself from your bed.'''' Aria is still jumping. ''''Okay! Okay! I will get up now so please stop that!'''' Ayesha said in a groggy voice. Aria stopped when Ayesha stood up. She also climbed down from the bed and fixed her dishevelled uniform. Ayesha looked at her best friend who is now dressed in her uniform. She then glanced at the clock place on top of the small table near her bed. Ayesha''s jaw drops when she saw the time. ''''4:30 A.M'''' She then looked at Aria who was also staring at her innocently. ''''FOR PETE''S SAKE ARIA! You woke me up! Didn''t you see the clock? It''s says 4:30 A.M? It''s still my bedtime!'''' Ayesha shouted but enough to be heard inside the room. ''''Oh! I was looking at my wristwatch! I forgot! I did set this in advance'''' Aria innocently answered. Ayesha just sighed, ''''I''m going back to sleep.'''' she was about to climbed back to her bed when Aria grabbed her wrist and dragged her to the bathroom. ''''No! You will take a bath now. We should go to the school early'''' Aria insisted as she pushed Ayesha inside the bathroom. ''''The F! Who takes a bath so early in the morning! I haven''t had enough sleep today!'''' Ayesha sighed as she just took a hot shower. While Ayesha is taking a bath, Aria went to the kitchen and saw a servant preparing some ingredients. Aria went inside without making any noise. ''''Miss Aria!'''' The servant screamed in horror when she saw the young miss standing next to her. ''''Oh! I''m so sorry, I startled you!'''' Aria apologizes. ''''It''s okay young Miss! But why are you awake so early?'''' the servant asked curiously. ''Oh! Ayesha and I are going to school early!'''' Aria answered. ''''Can I use the kitchen?'''' She asked the servant. ''''Yes, you may, Miss Aria. What ingredients do you need? I will prepare them for you.'''' The servant asked politely. ''''I need three eggs and hotdogs. Could you please help me cook some rice?'''' Aria have never tried cooking rice, well she never really tried cooking. She would just watch her mother cook whenever day have family dinner. The servant immediately gave Aria the ingredients she needed and went to cook some rice. Aria is confident that she could fry some eggs and hotdogs, since this are the only easy dishes she could think of doing. After Aria was done cooking when Ayesha came in. ''''Perfect timing! I just finished cooking. Let''s eat!'''' Aria said as she placed the dishes she cooked on the table. ''''Is this edible?!'''' Ayesha asked as she looked at the egg and the slightly burnt hotdog. ''''It is edible! Try it, even though it''s my first-time cooking. I''m pretty sure it turned out tasty.'''' Aria said with confidence. Ayesha eyed Aria, not trusting her words but still she tried eating an egg. ''''It''s salty!'''' she commented as she spits the egg, Aria also tried tasting her masterpiece but just like what Ayesha did, she also spit it out. ''''It is really salty!'''' Aria said, her voice is full of disappointment. ''''Even though its salty, this is still edible. Just put many rice in it.'''' Ayesha said. She will still eat what Aria cooks. ''''I''m fit to be a professional eater not a cook.'''' Aria joked and tried to eat the eggs that she cooked. Chapter 81 - Spoon 500 Chapter 82 - Brother? " Young Miss, we''re already here.'''' Ayesha''s personal driver called out her attention. The young lady was spacing out when he glanced at her. "Oh! Thank you. Can you please wait for me. I''ll be quick." Ayesha told her driver and the man just nodded. She then went out of the car and headed towards the boutique. "It''s my job to wait for you miss!" The driver uttered as he scratches his head. Ayesha went inside and she was immediately guided to the office where her gown is waiting. "Mr. Clem! The young miss has arrived." The ?ssistant called out Clem''s attention. ''''Thank you." He said and the ?ssistant went out. "Come, dear Ayesha! How are you? It''s been so long since we saw each other. I''m sorry that I called you today. We need to fit this wedding gown of yours to make the final adjustments." Clem offered some tea to Ayesha but the young lady declined. "I''m doing okay. Thank you for asking." Ayesha politely said. She felt quite odd talking with the person in front of her. "Uhm! Can we please make this appointment quick? I kinda need to study for my exams tomorrow." Ayesha asks. "Oh! I''m sorry to hear that. I wanted to have a chit-chat with but if you are in a hurry then we should start the fitting then." Clem pressed a small bu??on and two women came in. "Can you please wear your gown Ayesha. You can use the fitting room over there. Claire will help you." Clem pointed out the fitting room. He handed the gown to the woman named Claire. While Ayesha is inside the fitting room, Clint took out his phone and he started typing something. After he had sent the message his phone rang. He hurriedly went to the soundproof room next to the fitting room. "I''m with her. She''s currently inside the fitting room next door." Clem uttered. "Yes! I know that I need to- No you will not come here. You know your situation there." Clem pinched his nose bridge in frustration. "You should listen to me and you should follow what I say. It''s for your own protection and safety." Clem ended the call without hearing the explanation of the person In the other line. When he got out from the room, at the same time Ayesha was also out. Clem stared at the beautiful woman in front of him. Her natural look flawlessly gave elegance to the gown she''s wearing. "How do you feel while wearing that gown?" Clem directly asked when he came back to his senses. "I think there''s no need for any adjustments. This gown perfectly fits me." Ayesha honestly answered. She didn''t have any problem wearing the gown. She also felt comfortable wearing it. "Are you really sure that there''s no need for adjustments? How about the length of the gown? The tightness of it on your body? Do you feel comfortable?" Clem asked Ayesha. He needs to make sure that Ayesha would feels satisfied on the gown she will be wearing. "Try walking from here to there!" Clem pointed the sofa near the door. Ayesha did what Clem asked her to do. When she got to the sofa she opened her mouth to say something. "The length is okay for me since I''ll be wearing heels and the gown itself really fits me well and I''m comfortable wearing it. Plus this gown is perfectly and beautifully crafted." Ayesha complimented her designer. Clem just bowed down. "If you say that there will be no more adjustments then you can now take that off. I bet you are also in a hurry. I will feel bad if I would take much of your time." Clem politely uttered and Ayesha went back to the fitting room to take off her wedding gown. After taking off her gown, Clem went to her to say goodbye. "I''ll see you on your wedding day." He uttered and gave Ayesha a peek on her forehead. The young lady was taken aback by what Clem did but the young man just smiled at her. "I''ll go now Mr. Clem. Thank you for your time." Ayesha said and she dashed off out from the boutique. "Oh! She got startled!" Clem just touched the back of his head as he watches the young lady went inside of the car. "Are we going back to the mansion, Miss Ayesha?" The driver asked. "Can we stop at my favourite cafe? I wanted to buy some cakes for Aria and a coffee for me." Ayesha requested and her driver just nodded in response. When they arrive at the cafe, there were so many customers. There were no vacant seats when Ayesha looked around. The manager spotted her and she was immediately entertained. She''s a regular customer in the store that''s why Ayesha is always entertained by the manager herself. Even though Ayesha doesn''t like to get some special treatment but she''s will cheat for this time. "I would like to order a chocolate cake and a mango flavoured cake also plus my usual order." Ayesha instantly told the manager her orders. "Right away Miss Ayesha." Before the manager could leave. Ayesha spoke again. "I''ll just wait outside" She smiled and walked outside the cafe. While waiting for her order, Ayesha wandered her eyes off to the other side of the street and there she saw a familiar face. The man was standing on the opposite side and was looking at her. Ayesha can''t believe who she just saw, it took her a couple of minutes before speaking the man''s name. "Brother Spade?" She uttered as she was about to run off to catch and confirm the man identity, but she was stopped by her driver. "Miss! You can''t cross the street. There is no pedestrian lane and the cars are still moving." her driver uttered. "But, I just saw my brother." Ayesha glanced back to where she saw her brother. But the man was no longer to be found. Chapter 83 - Must have mistaken! All throughout the ride, Ayesha was in deep thought. She was remembering the face of the man whom she wanted to see for the past eight years. ''''That was him, I''m sure of it.'''' Ayesha murmured as she bit her nail in frustration. Her mind is in mess right now. She had so many unanswered questions that need some answer and only that man she saw earlier could answer her. If only she had the means or anything she could use to find him. "Young Miss, are you really sure that it was your brother, young master Han?" Antonio, Ayesha''s personal driver asked. When Spade was still alive, Antonio has been working with the Gonzales household. He was still in his twenties at that time. "I''m really sure it was him. But there''s this unfamiliar feeling that I''ve been feeling when I looked at him, maybe because I have not seen him for so long." Ayesha explained. ''''You believe me right Uncle Antonio?" Ayesha asked without looking at her driver. Antonio just looked at her with so much worry on his face. He treats the young lady as his own daughter since he never had the chance to get married. When they arrived at the mansion, Ayesha immediately went out of the car living the desserts that she had bought from the cafe. "Please cut some slices from the two flavoured cake and bring it to the young lady''s room." Antonio asked a servant before parking the car to the parking lot. Ayesha hurriedly went to her room and Aria who was eating got startled by the loud bang from the door. "Hey! Are you okay?'''' Aria worriedly asked when she saw Ayesha''s facial expression. She looked anxious and confused. "I saw him!" She uttered to Aria. "I saw him standing on the opposite side of the street. He was staring at me. He was so thin and so weak-looking." Ayesha uttered again and she began pacing back and forth. "Who did you saw?" Aria asked curiously and she walked towards Ayesha who was already biting her nail. She knew Ayesha''s mannerism whenever there is something bothering her. It''s like having an adrenaline rush. "Hey, Ayesha! Calm down. Again who did you saw?" Aria asked again. She didn''t want to witness another episode of Ayesha fainting. It was also kinda an unforgettable experience on her part. "Brother Spade. I saw him Aria!" Ayesha answered as she began to calm down. "But he is already dead? You must have mistaken him for someone else." Aria pulled Ayesha towards her bed. "Are you still having nightmares? Answer me honestly." Aria asked. Ayesha just looked at her. Having doubts if she should tell Aria the truth or not. "I still do have nightmares from that incident. I do have nightmares of me and Brother Spade." Ayesha answered honestly. She was trembling. "Maybe you just really have mistaken him for someone else. You just missed him that''s why you are seeing things." Aria calmly said. "We will tell Auntie and Uncle about what you saw earlier and about that nightmare of yours. You can''t just keep that as a secret to them." Aria uttered. "Now you calm down ''cause we still need to study for our exam tomorrow. Don''t let what you saw earlier be your distraction Ayesha." Aria said again before going back to her place and she again started eating. Ayesha laid down on her bed. She closed her eyes for a moment. She wishes to see her brother again. That night, while they were eating, Ayesha just stayed quite. Aria kept on kicking her feet. Aria cleared her throat to get the attention of the Gonzales couple. "Aunti! Uncle! Ayesha has something to say." Ayesha glared at her best friend. "What is it?" Mrs. Zhou looked at Ayesha. "I saw brother Han." She blurted out. The Gonzales couple looked at each other. "Did your brothers'' spirit appeared to you?" Mr. Zhou asked. "No! I saw him! A real living person. I visited the cafe and I was waiting for my order outside when I saw him on the opposite side of the street. He was staring at me.'''' Ayesha narrated the scene that happened. ''''Ayesha! You must have mistaken him for someone else. Your brother is long dead." Mr. Zhou uttered. "Maybe you''re just stressed out from your exams." Mrs. Zhou said and asked the servant to brew some tea for Ayesha. "I knew it! They won''t believe me.'''' Ayesha just sighed. ------ In the other part of the city, a man was throwing all the expensive things inside his office. He looks so angry because of the person who is standing not too far from him. His plans where actually ruined by the person whom he saved from the incident eight years ago. "I told you to stay still inside this house!" He shouted at the person who just looked at him with an unfazed and lifeless stare. "But what did you do? You disobeyed my orders. You went out to look for her? And I''m even amazed by the fact that you instantly found her even though you were in a coma for eight years." the man uttered again. "Your secretary helped me to look for her." The man just simply said. "And you are not yet fully recovered." he scolded him again. "I told you that I''ll introduce you to her when the time comes and when you have recovered. You blew up all my plans because she already saw you." The young man uttered again. He pinched his nose in frustration. "Don''t go outside without my permission and until I say so." The man said and he strode towards a door connected to his office but before he entered he faced the man again. "Mark my warnings to you, Spade Ezekiel Gonzales. I can take your life in an instant.'''' The man said in a cold voice and he went inside his room. Spade just looked at him unfazed. Still wondering who the man is.

While Spade was in deep thought, the young mans'' secretary came inside the messy room. He ordered some servants to clean the room. The servants started cleaning, the pieces of broken glasses started making noises as they were being swept. The young man''s secretary took a glance at Spade and spoke, ''''I''m so sorry young master Spade. I didn''t know that young master would know that you went outside the house.'''' The secretary apologizes. Partially, he was also at fault why Spade was scolded. He only gave him information about Ayesha''s whereabouts and also took him to where she is. "It''s okay. I was only scolded not killed.'''' Spade smile. ''''Thank you for helping me see my sister again. I just can''t wait to for his plans.'''' Spade added and he bowed down to the secretary. He is no longer the proud young master of the Gonzales Family. He is just merely a dead person to them. ''''You don''t need to thank me, young master Spade. I know the feeling of not seeing your loves once for eight years.'''' The secretary said. Spade didn''t utter a single word. " Would you like to have some tea, young master?" The secretary asked but Spade just declined, saying that he wants to retire to his room. The secretary just bowed and Spade went to the room ?ssigned for him. He laid on his bed, his whole body aching. It was not too long since he had woken up from a coma. The young man stared at the ceiling. Thinking of the day when he had woken up from a very long sleep. -FLASHBACK- It was already midnight in France when the young man woke up from his slumber because his phone kept on ringing. Despite his sleepiness, he took his phone and answered the call without looking at the caller''s name. "Hello" he answered, his voice is still groggy. "Young Master, he is finally awake." the young man''s secretary''s words woke him up. "I''ll be there in a minute." he said and ended the call. He immediately stood up from the bed and took his coat along with his car keys, and hurriedly went out of his room. He ran towards the parking lot and he got inside the car, revived its engine and drove off not minding if he broke the speed limit and rules. "Finally you are awake." The man mumbled to himself and sped the car up. He arrives at a house far away from the city. "Is he still awake?" he asked immediately when he saw his secretary walking towards him. "Yes young master he is awake but he is in a daze." his secretary informed him. The two of them walked towards a room, the room was all white and there were machines all over the place, the young man went inside first and his secretary followed behind him. "Welcome back to the land of the living." he said to the man laying on the bed. The man just stared at him without blinking. "He was a fortunate man. Being able to wake up after a long years in coma.'''' The doctor uttered. ''''Can he possibly be able to regain his strength for a short span of treatment?'''' The young man asked the doctor. ''''All his wounds have healed, the only thing he needs to do is to regain his strength and it''s up to his will power.'''' The doctor answered and the young man glanced at the person who was just blankly staring at him. ''''Just make sure to help him recover all his strength." he said and looked at the man again and spoke, " I bet you would still remember her when you two would meet again, Spade." ''''Prepare all the things he needs for the treatment. Also gave him her picture. I bet he will remember her.'''' The young man uttered again and left the room. He also needs to go back to his house to prepare something. ------- ''''Eight years huh!'''' Spade mumbled. He spent eight years lying on the bed, doing nothing aside from sleeping. ''''If only you hadn''t kidnapped her and brought her to that place. I won''t be in this position that I''m in right now.'''' He mumbled again and took a piece of paper. It was a photo of the young Ayesha. "You surely did grow up into a beautiful woman. When I was asleep, I always dreamt of you in your little form. You were always calling my name.'''' Spade ??r?ssed the photo, when he saw her earlier, he wanted to rub towards the other side of the street and embrace his sister but all he could do is stare at her confused face. ''''I''m so sorry baby lili, brother was not able to stay by your side. I broke my promise to protect you.'''' Spade''s eyes started to water. Tears slowly glide down to his cheeks. Just thinking of the days that were wasted from being apart with his sister made Spade''s heart hurt like it was being squeezed and pierced with tiny needles. "I wasn''t able to fulfill my role as your brother this past eight years. I was not by your side when you got sick or when you had your birthdays specially on your eighteenth birthday. I even promised that I will be your last dance and I wasn''t able to scare the young lads who tried to hit on you. I wonder if you have someone you love already.'''' Spade started talking to the picture, he didn''t mind if he looks like someone who lost his mind. Besides he was the only one present in the big room. "I''ll make sure to protect you this time but first I need to regain all my strength and I need to gather information about the man who saved me that time. I''ll promise, I will introduce myself properly the next time we meet.'''' Spade ??r?ssed the picture and place it on his heart as he cried, letting out the worries, frustrations and longingness that he felt when he saw his only sister.
