541 Words
Although Ashton insisted for me to stay overnight as planned, I could not. I felt ashamed and pathetic. I felt like I have used him for my pleasure.
"Why didn't he let me please him too?"
I was confused. Maybe it was something wrong with me.
While different thoughts crossed my mind, I decided to resign as I couldn't see our relationship far into the future not that there was one.
I was a nobody while he was stunning, smart, and rich. He was the perfect man
chased by beautiful and rich women. What could I offer him?
I shake my head into negation and decided that certainly I will resign on Monday.
I wanted him; I was aroused by him, but I could not let my emotions to cover me.
I knew that everything was too good to be true and it was better to stop the feelings before they could develop further.
With sorrow in my heart, I went to visit my mother for the weekend. I needed a distraction to clear my head.
" Surprise! ! !"...I jumped behind my mom and hugged her tight.
" I missed you so much", I said.
" I love you too sweetie"...she said turning to face me and smiling.
" What's up with you? You almost never come to visit me here. " she asked
with concern in her eyes.
" Nothing..." I replied looking down.
" I just missed you so much." I hugged her again, kissing her on her cheeks.
" What's for dinner?" I asked rushing towards the kitchen to check the cooker as she used to cook daily. We never ate the same food twice.
She started to laugh... " Seriously? Now why should I tire just for myself. Thatwas for you darling." she replied poking at my nose with her finger.
I started to laugh "So that's the deal now, huh?"
She was my best friend as I was always busy studying or working. I never got
the chance to have real friends.The weekend was great as I managed to distract myself from my thoughts.
We went down the river where it was a small sand beach to sunbath. A lot of
kids used to go there in their summer holiday to swim and play. I helped her
cooking and cleaning the house. The weekend ended in no time.
I felt better, full of energy, my head was clear. I knew what I have to do!
Ashton's POV
" She is so perfect!" I thought. I could not content my happiness. Finally, we are one step ahead.
Even though she left Saturday morning I felt that she wanted me too. Maybe it was too much for her. That is why I controlled myself.
I wanted to make her happy, to show her how much I am in love with her.
I felt sad Monday when she did not show up in the morning. I wanted to hug her, kiss her, and tell her how much I like her.
I have only seen her briefly these past days as I was terribly busy. She appeared
a little distressed but I wanted to wait until the presentation was over so I can have a serious talk with her.
