Perfect Handsome Coworker
chapter1 :the party
Isabella
I introduce myself
my name is Isabella ,and this is how it began I was diagnosed with brain tumor,after I was rushed to the hospital in high school, I inherited the disease from my mother.I was trying to live a good life,I have a bucket list,I had dad, but I wanted more before I died,I wanted to fall in love as I watched in movies.
Isabella
I worked in an orphanage as a teacher,I loved the children, I was beautiful, kind,and gentle a proper lady but sometimes it is just not enough.....I had a best friend named gift,she was the woman ,you would want when you needed help.
Isabella
she forced me to a party, held by her rich cousin, Eric,Eric was a gentle man,he had all a woman wanted in a man but he was a womanizer. a talented one at that.
eric
it's an honour to see such beautiful woman,please enjoy yourselves.
gift introduced me to her cousins, there so many I had even lost count, finally I sat down...
gift
I go get some drinks, don't go anywhere.
it's been an hour ,she isn't back, a waiter comes to the table and drops a class of water,I think.....
I drink out of it ,thinking it was sent by gift.
Isabella
it burns, it burns.. water!water!,I said while fanning my tongue.
the waiter rushed to get a glass of water.
Isabella
I gulped it down ,all at once....much better
before she could fully recover,a surprise awaited her.
eric
Isabella is that really you....it's been ages..you still look as beautiful as before, he grinned.
Isabella
the way ,his looking at me ,gives shivers to my bones....I thought.
we didn't talk for something that akwardily felt like forever...
eric
we haven't talked since the moment you... rejected me..it should be.. three years now ..right.
Isabella
I felt nervous, worried and panicking.
eric
Isabella..were known each other for a while now, and unknowingly I had fallen in love with you.. would you be my girlfriend? .........🤗😊
eric
I promise I take good care of you...
her head looking down away from his eyes..hiding the tears that were about to fall
Isabella
am sorry, I can't accept
before he could speak, she was already gone...never seeing her until now, here of all places.
A wolf in sheep clothing
Isabella
it wasn't that i didn't like Eric, he was one of the nicest people I had ever met but what really was the use of building a relationship that would cause pain, I had already seen how much sadness dad was suffering everyday as he looked at the sky every night ,so why would I want to cause someone such pain,i swallowed hard as I remembered
eric
it's okay ,it's in the past now but I always found myself wonder, WHY?
her hands were under the table, fighting each other, she didn't want to tell him she was dying, she didn't want to get that pathetic look everyone always gave her, when the found out she was dying, but she needed to catch her breath.
Isabella
please excuse me,i need to use the ladies restroom, I said rather uncomfortable.
but as she stood, ready to leave, he grabbed her hand harshly, there was this evil ,wicked look in his eyes as she looked down at him, that she had never seen before to believe but just for a minute, it disappeared immediately.
Isabella
Eric, let go, your hurting me.. let go
eric
am sorry..(he let her go), I got carried alone.
Deep down, she didn't know what exactly it was, that was telling her to grab her bag and run maybe she was being too cautious but that part of her, was scared and worried of this man in front of her, that look in his eyes still scared her as she hurried to the ladies restroom.
(staring at the mirror in front of me,i picked up my phone, maybe she was over reacting but there was nothing bad about being too cautious
Isabella
where was she?....she should have been back by now!!,(I began calling her phone but suddenly I heard her ringing tone coming from my bag,)why did you have to leave your phone 📲!!.
Isabella
maybe this is all in my head, yes that's it.
Then suddenly the restroom door was opened, I thought it was just another girl that's why I didn't bother to look but turned around when I heard the person, lock the door, I turned around to see Eric but his once friendly smile disappeared replacing it with a twisted, wick, evil😈look as he looked at me from head to toe sending a cold shiver to my spine as I stepped back.
