Chapter 11

Falling Already

"General Jin pulls Churong closer to his chest making the cake to fall off from her hand, her cheek flusters with hot blushes"

"Rong"

"When you need a pillar to rest on, I will lend you my shoulder"

"When you need a pillow to cry on, I will lend you my body"

"If you want to fly, I will give you the sky"

Michael lies on his bed scrolling his phone gradually as he read "Beyond Words: Episode Six by Bob-Manuel Ibiso (July).

"She is too fanatical, no one has written this great masterpiece" Michael mutters cheerfully to himself as he votes on the chapter dropping an encouraging comment.

He exhales in relieve and continues reading the historical novel when a call pops into his phone, he pauses for some brief seconds and accepts the call while sitting upright on the bed.

"Good morning Dr. Michael" someone greets politely over the phone.

"Speak, I'm listening" Michael commands politely.

"There is an emergency at the hospital ..." the caller tries to explain the situation but Michael ends the call abruptly and hurries into the bathroom.

July perfectly applies the makeup on her face and stands up gradually, she approaches the mirror.

"Where is he taking me to?" the though runs through her mind as she admires her skimpy red gown and black wedge heels, July winks flirtatiously and leaves her apartment approaching the Lamborghini with confident strides.

"You look gorgeous Miss" the driver compliments with a smile immediately July sits in the car on the back seat.

"Thank you" July appraise softly thus the driver starts the engine and drives out of the quiet neighborhood.

"Honey" Sarah calls happily walking to the living room where Thompson is sitting.

"Our debts have been paid" Sarah exclaims with a bright smile while Thompson nods his head slowly.

"Finally you can haven a sigh of relieve" Thompson teases sarcastically, Sarah laughs softly and pauses.

"But honey... about July" Sarah said sadly.

"Let her be, she will call whenever she needs us" Thompson said vividly and Sarah nods her head gradually in response as she leaves to the kitchen. Thompson flips through the page and continues reading the document in his hand attentively.

Tex Emporium, one of the famous and expensive mall in London. July highlights from the car with a small smile and approaches handsome looking Damien, he stands patiently at the entrance of the mall.

July stares at him in admiration whence she walks closer, Damien clears his throat awkwardly blinking his eyes while facing her.

"Let's go in" Damien said politely, July nods her head sheepishly thus they walk into the mall confidently.

The shopping spree was fun as Damien purchases any outfits or likes of July, they steal shy glances at each other's side view while moving the cart along the shopping rack. July smiles brightly in Joy as Damien lovingly selects the best things for her, soon they walk together with their shopping bags into the limousine waiting outside the mall.

"Where are we going to?" July asks impatiently as soon as the driver starts the engine.

"It's a surprise" Damien said politely, July blushes while nodding her head slowly.

"Thank you so much babe" July said lovingly and Damien nods his head nervously while pulling out his phone from his pocket.

The afternoon turns cloudy making the city looks perfect and loveable, cafés on the street open up their big umbrella to create shades for the satisfaction of the customers need.

Rose walks confidently into the café holding a small beautiful basket with her precious pet (cat) in it, she sits gradually on the chair at the outdoor terrace as a waitress immediately walk up to her table with a small smile.

"Welcome Miss"

"What can I get for you?" the waitress asks politely with a bright smile, Rose turns to the waitress sadly.

"One chocolate coffee, medium size" Rose said slyly and faces the table hitting her fingers on it anxiously in desperation.

"Why did father freeze my accounts?"

"How am I to survive with just fifty dollars?" Rose mutters anxiously and sadly to herself I a low tone, the pet meowed softly thus she turn her gaze to it with a sad smile while caressing it slowly.

"For gods' sake I'm lady Gerber!"

"Why are they treating me this way?" Rose asks annoyingly still facing the clueless pet.

"Here is your order Miss" the waitress places the coffee courteously on the table and leaves to welcome new customers, Rose scoffs sadly as she snatches the coffee off the table and gulps it impatiently.

Rose hits the coffee hardly on the table with a mischievous smile.

"Nice idea" Rose said with an anxious smirk as she turns to her pet smiling brightly, the pet meow in happiness.

"Wow!"

"This is beautiful"

"Damien!" July runs over to Damien embracing him tightly and smiling in happiness.

Damien's surprise to July was taking her to a fabulous and expensive aquarium, July runs back and forth happily admiring the ocean animals.

"I love this babe" July said lovingly with her hands on the wall separating them from the magnificent view.

"Glad you do" Damien nods his head slowly standing next to her.

"Babe, can I add moving in to your mansion on the contract?" July asks anxiously with a mischievous sad facial expression.

"Not possible" Damien said vividly with his eyes fixed on the displaying aquatic lives.

"But you are my..." July stutters nervously as blush flusters all over her cheek, Damien turns to her annoyingly.

"Don't get carried away by all these" Damien walks gradually to a distance, July faces his direction anxiously.

"All these are part of the contract as the dominant, hope you are not mistaking my kindness for love?" Damien asks apathetically making July to fall silent.

"Don't fall in love with me"

"All these are just part of the drama" Damien said vividly and walks out of the aquarium hall heading to the exit, July exhales sadly as she watches him leave in pain.

"I'm sorry, I love you"

"I have already fallen for you, Mr. Damien" July mutters sadly to herself while placing her palm gently on her chest, her heart throbs slowly.

The door made a pleasant sound as Damien walks into the living room sadly, Rose on seeing him sits upright on the long soft armchair with a mischievous smile.

Damien roughly sits on the armchair and Rose adjusts closer to him, she pauses anxiously.

"Brother"

"This is unlike you"

"Are you okay?" Rose asks sadly staring deeply into her brother's eyes, Damien pushes her away playfully and faces another direction.

"I'm okay" Damien replies in a low tone, Rose smirks mockingly under her nose.

"Why are you here?" Damien asks annoyingly.

"I have no cash to lend you at the moment" Damien snorts annoyingly while standing up, he walks to the kitchen slowly.

"Brother ..." Rose stumbles sadly as she follows him to the kitchen.

July stands upright at the door of Michael, she knocks gently and anxiously.

"July, is it Michael?" a neighbor asks her slyly, she nods her head nervously in response.

"He has been away for days now" the neighbor informs politely and goes back into her room.

July exhales sadly as she unlocks the door of her apartment and walks into it staggering. Some minutes of redressing, July sits on her living room couch as she slowly opens her diary. She smiles helplessly as she touches the written words gradually and lovingly.

"Half of my debts have been cleared" July said excitedly and her mood changes slightly.

"But the remaining are too much to be cleared instantly" July mutters sadly to herself and immediately a hard knock comes from her door.
