DING DONG!!
I was at the kitchen, preparing for breakfast until I heard a doorbell. I just finished making the breakfast. I put the plates on the dining table and opened the door.
"Morning Bella. Hmm.. I smell food. You made breakfast?" Stephanie just came in my house walking all the way straight to the kitchen.
I rolled my eyes. "Ya. I bet you want to eat." I let the door opened as always. I sit down at the dining table, so do Steph. Steph took a sandwich that I made and munch it in inside her mouth. Oh god, why do I have a friend like this.
"Hmm babe, where did you go last night? Neymar told me that both of you will not come to have dinner with us. Where were you?" She asked with a full mouth.
"Didn't Neymar told you anything? Or maybe anyone else?" It's impossible that no one told her anything.
She shook her head just before she swallowed her sandwich. "Nope. They only told me that Kylian might have something that he want to talk with you. But they did not mention what it is." She shrugged while munching the sandwich. This girl, she's like a cookie monster whenever she sees food.
"Well, he actually did talk to me about something." I took a deep breath before I told her. I must be readily prepared by her reaction.
I showed my right hand, resting it on the table, Infront of Steph. "What is it?" She seriously can't see it. I pointed my other hand to the right hand. She looked at it and "AHHHHHH OH MY GOD BELLA, DID HE PROPO-"
"Don't even think about it. Of course he did not proposed to me. We just known each other for just a month." I knew she will freak out and I knew that she will mentioned the word 'proposed'. She was looking at me, finally finished her sandwich. She was impatiently waiting for me to continue.
"Well ermm he confessed to me yesterday. This ring is a promise ring. He promised me that he will not cheat on me, lie to me, and he will be with me forever." I looked down. My emotion suddenly changed. I was so touched at what Kylian promised.
Steph saw that I was tearing. She stood up from the the dining chair and hug me. "I'm so happy for you Bella. Please don't cry. Finally, you opened the door of your heart to accept him as your boyfriend. After 8 years." She patted my back to make be calm, stopped from crying. I looked up, facing her. "Thank you Steph." I stood up and hugged her. I feel so grateful to have her as my best friend, even though she might be annoying sometimes. "Well, I guess I need to call you Mrs Mbappe." I smacked her back as we both laughed.
After we have finished our breakfast, she stayed here for a while, before she went out with Jose. We seated at the couch, browsing for any TV shows that we find interested.
"Bella, so you are now Kylian's girlfriend. Have you told him about who you really were? I know it's your past and all but don't you think he should know about it?" I looked at her. Totally disagree with her.
"Not a single thing Steph. I seriously do not want Kylian to know. I'm just an ordinary girl that Kylian met at the cafe, that's all."
"Know about what?" I heard a voice from distance. I looked at the door and saw Kylian. s**t. I stood up from the couch and walked towards him.
"Kylian, when did you come? I thought you are having training today." I welcomed him to come in.
"I bought you flowers." He gave it to me. It's so beautiful. I love it. "Aww thank you Kylian. It's so lovely."
He saw Steph and he greeted. He seated at the couch while I was preparing drink for him. "Here you go." I placed a cup of orange juice on the table and seated next to him. I saw Steph was awkward. I was too. I'm scared if he heard everything and will asked me. I really hope not.
"Bella, just now I heard you mentioned about something that you want to tell me. What is it?" Oopsie. He looked at me with a lot of question mark in his mind.
"Bella, I will leave the two of you here. I need to go back home because Jose is on his way. Got to go bye!!" Oh great. She left.
Kylian still looked at me, waiting for my answer. Oh no. Should I tell him. Or should I not tell him. As what Stephanie have mentioned, he's my boyfriend now, I guess all about my past, he have the right to know.
I released a deep breath. "Kylian, I have something to tell you. Well, you are now my boyfriend and we promise to have no secrets with each other."
Here you go. "All this while, I'm not just Bella that you met at the cafe. I- I used to be a celebrity's girlfriend. I know it sounds rubbish and all but it's true. I used to be a celebrity's girlfriend at a age of 17. I met him when my best friend asked me a go to a concert. His name is Adrian Noh. Eventually, he's my best friend's friend. We get to know each other and he asked me to become his girlfriend. He's older than me, 5 years older." I paused. I was afraid to look at him.
"Then what happened?" he asked. He was eager, wanting me to continue.
I was holding my tears. I do not want to cry about my past relationship. "We didn't last forever. We had been together for 1 and half year. I- broke up with him." s**t. I couldn't control it. My tears was running down my cheeks.
Flashbacks
"Hi!! May I know if there's anyone named Adrian Noh checked in at this hotel?" I asked the receptionist.
I was so excited to meet him. Today is his birthday and I wanted to surprise him. He stayed in a hotel because he told me he was so tired to go home after a long concert.
"Yes. He's at the 6th floor. The room is 606." I thank the receptionist as I went up to level 6.
I was searching for room 606. "Found it." I was outside the room, ready to knock.
I knocked the door twice and the door was opened. "Yes? Are you the room service?" I saw a girl was standing inside. I was curious. Is this really Adrian's room. I was about to leave because I thought that I might knocked on the wrong room until I heard a voice inside.
"Baby, who's there?" I was familiarised with the voice. Without asking a permission from the girl and walked in. Oh my god!!
I saw Adrian was naked, lying down on the bed. I shook in disbelief. "Bella!! It's not what you think. I've been trapped. Please believe me." He got off from the bed putting his pants on. I couldn't hold my anger. I took out the promise ring that he gave me and threw it on the floor.
I went out from the room and exit the hotel.. I saw paparazzi was standing Infront of the hotel. "Bella, what is wrong? Is it true that Adrian Noh is sleeping with other girl? Did you know about it? Are you and Adrian still together?" A lot of questions was asked by them. I ignored. There's a lot of emotion running through now. I got in my car and leave the hotel. My relationship with Adrian is over.
End of flashbacks
I told Kylian everything. From A to Z. I wasn't looking at him as I know that he might be angry at me for not telling him before. I do not want to tell him because I thought he should not know about it but Steph brought it up.
"I'm sorry Kylian. I know I should have told you. You have the right to be angry at me. I do not tell you who I really am. Please forgive me. I promise I won't keep any secrets anymore." I rested on his chest.
He rubbed my back. "Baby, please don't cry. It's not your fault. Don't be sorry. I know it must be hard for you to tell me about your past." He called me 'baby'. I feel more relaxed, more calm.
I looked up at him. "You're not angry at me?"
"Of course not. Bella, I love you so much. I do not care about your past. I want your presents and your future. Let the past be the past ok. I do not care if you're a celebrity's girlfriend or what. Now, you're my girlfriend." He wiped my tears from my cheeks. I'm grateful to have a boyfriend like him. He was so caring to me. I feel bad. I smiled a little. He hugged me to make me calm.
"So that's why you do not want to tell the public about our relationship? It's because you're scared if your ex boyfriend know where you are." I nodded my head.
"Where is he now?" He asked.
"Ever since I broke up with him, he migrate to other country. I knew because he's been contacting my family. I don't even know why are they still contacting them. But I have warned my family not to tell him where am I, where I stay and all."
He released a deep breath and calm me down. He then change the topic.
"Do you want to watch some movies?" He asked as he was playing with my hair. I nodded my head. We choose a thriller movie. While we were watching, I rest my head on his chest. I felt calm, relaxed and safe. He rubbed my hair as we watched.
After a few hours
"Bella, I need to go. I have training to go to. Are you ok to be alone?" He asked as he got up from the couch.
I nodded. "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine." He looked so concerned. "Just go to your training. Your coach will be angry at you if you skipped your training."
He smiled. "I'd rather get scolded than leaving you alone at home." Aww!! So sweet!!
I cupped my hands on his face. "Just go. I'll call you later " I kept convincing him to go. He kissed my hands and he agreed to go. "Love you baby!! Remember call me." I nodded while smiling. I waved my hand and he left.
At that point of time, I already felt lonely. No one to talk to. Steph's not at home. I decided to go to bed and take a nap. I dived onto my bed. I felt relieved. I had let out my past life to the person I love most and the respond was positive. I'm glad I made the right decision.
...............
The next morning I woke up. Feeling fresh to start the day. Kylian stayed at a place where all France players will stay before a match.
Today I have no plan. Just me and Steph going to the supermarket to buy groceries. Other than that, no plan.
"Carefully bro!! It's fragile." I heard a voice from outside my house. What's all this commotion about. I want to know what's going on outside. I exited the room and walked towards the door to open it. Damn!! What are these?
