Chapter one
"Hey Amy, don't be too hard on yourself!"Gracie my closet friend and confidant complained as she entered my office.I let out a sigh and leant back on my chair.Every thing was moving on smoothly except my life I barely had time for myself ever since his burial all those painful memories still played like it was just yesterday.Over four years had passed from that tragic day.His smile was still registered in my mind, how could I possibly forget all the time that we had and only sitting in this huge lifeless office with burying my head in paperwork could take my mind off him.I could still picture his perfect jawline,his set of clean white teeth when he laughed,those full lips when he...
"Are even listening to me"her angry voice pulls me from my trance as I lift my eyes to look at her.
"Sorry I was thinking of the proposal Mr.Alfonso show..."Before I could even finish my lie, she cut me off slamming the table hard which made me jump in surprise.I had really touched her raw nerve. Lying to others was easy but not to Gracie even though she tried her best not to yell at me because she knew what I was going through but maybe I had gone overboard this time.
"Now listen to me!..."she said sternly looking deadpan at me before she continued"I am not letting you ruin your life just because you think you alone hurt.DO you really think je would have loved to see you like this? "
"I know he wouldn't but I can't seem to move on and the worst is we had barely s ..."I try to justify my actions but i know she won't believe me.
"Amy don't give me that! you can't move on because you don't let yourself.I love and care for you but if you keep this up, I am afraid I will lose you too.He was a friend of mine too and I still miss him but you have to open up to a new life and learn the beauty of it."
"But I can't forget him.."I interject but she doesn't lose a fight for all I know.
"I didn't tell you to forget him you moron! I just want you to live the best of your life like he would have wanted."she suddenly stood up preparing to leave but she stopped and looked at me."I am done persuading, next Saturday you have a date with Christopher whether you like it or not."
"But..."She pointed a threatening finger at me letting me know that it was not oppen to negotiation so I just shrugged.
"And before I forget, your new assistant is coming on Monday. Don't worry you will definitely like him." She said grinning at me while I looked at her in confusion.
HIM!!!!!
When did the company hire male assistants!
That was so not good news on my side.So I decided that whatever it was I was going to do my job.
I finished going through all documents and headed home as usual me being the last to leave.
Reaching home,I took a quick shower and fell exhausted on the bed awaiting the usual boring weekend.
I wake up the next morning from the nightmares that had become a part of me.I am so sick of my programed life so I decide to take myself out to have a heavenly breakfast at Brittany's but as I made my way to the entrance,I bump into someone and as I raised my eyes,I was astonished by what I saw...
