Sweet Revenge
Chapter 1
Paul is standing outside in the sun waiting for Sadie to finish with her wedding shoe shopping. Really how difficult can it be to just get a pair of shoes. i have been here waiting for 3 hours. Well i rather be here then there looking at soooo many shoes. Sadie is my fiance. We will be getting married in 4 months time. We been together for two years now so 3 months ago i decided it must be time to settle down with Sadie. Before Sadie and me i was dumped cheated on and simply ghosted. i really wasnt lucky in love department before Sadie so thats why i propose to her so she can be my future.
As i sat on the bench drinking a coffee from my favorite coffee café , i was day dreaming. Hello is somebody home. I see a hand infront of my face. Hello Helloo welcome to earth. Yes Michael i see you here. How are you bro? i asked him.
No what is up with you dude you were miles away. Michael question me. I was thinking about me and Sadie thats all. Oh i see wedding jitters i guess. Michael ask me.
i pulled my hand through my hair and stare at the sun.
What were you doing on the bench outside here anyway ? Micheal ask me.
I'm waiting on Sadie shes been shoe shopping for the wedding the whole morning. So i choose to wait here rather to be inside bored out of my skull. I told Micheal.
He started to laugh so much he almost trip over my feet.
i really don't see the connection between you and Sadie. You both so different. Michael stated as a matter of fact.
Listen here i love Sadie and im marrying her in 4 months time, i really think we will have a good future together. i told Michael. Ok Ok bro Michael lift up his hands in surrender. Do you really have to wait here or can we go to the Coffee Café. Michael ask me. Let me just phone Sadie and ask her how long she will be.
Hi sweetie
Hello babes
I just want to hear if you almost done or still going to be awhile.
No i want the chicken salad. i heard her speaking to someone in the background.
Sadie
Sadie
Sadie !!!
Yes babes im here. uhm no i will still be awhile. Sadie tells.
i was starting to get angry as im been waiting outside for 3hours just to hear she ordering lunch and tell me she will still be awhile.
But with Michael next to me i cover up my anger and be sweet to her.
Ok baby then im going for coffee and lunch with Michael.
i told Sadie.
Ok whatever babes like i care and she hung up the phone.
Rather then put the phone down i speak to myself in the phone. ok thanks baby yes i will enjoy it and will tell Michael you say hello. ok love you baby. Yes i lied to make her look better in Michael eyes because i can see he doesn't like her much.
But i really dont know what is up with Sadie lately. As me and Micheal make our way to the sweet revenge Café. I just love this place coffee and not even to talk about there pastries. The person that bakes it do it with so much love i think you can taste it especially the almond square. Its so sweet ,flaky and sticky its to die for. i know i sound like a chick but really its the best in town. As we stand in the que waiting to order . i was thinking this place must make loads as its always busy. Michael do you know who own this Café? Uhm no but i know its not you Micheal joked.
Yes i know because i would eat and drink it all up and won't have anything left for the customers . I gave Michael a slap on the shoulder. With a dagger look. Micheal just shakes his head and smiled because we are next.
Micheal order for us.
Two grande hazelnut lattes,
two almond squares
and three brownies please.
i paid for our order and went and find a table.
There was a table open at the window so i ran to it. Michael just followed me and shakes his head.
What made this table so special that you had to run to it . Michael mocked me.
You never usually get a table the window. i told Micheal.
We sat there and talk then our order came. i toke a bite out of my delishes almond square with the syrup al over my face but i didnt care as i was enjoying it so much.
Michael do you enjoy the brownies as much as i do the almond squares. Michael burst out laughing .
I was abit confused as to why Micheal was laughing at me. He just shakes his head and handed me a wet wipes to wipe my sticky face. No i dont think as much as you but i enjoy the brownies. Michael answered.
Why did you order three by the way ? i asked Michael. No i wanted two for me and one for my mom.
Micheal mom is very sweet lady. Yes your mom love the sweet stuff. i told Micheal.
As we finish our coffee and pastries Brad walked in.
Yo Brad i said out loud. Brad saw us and came to sit with us. Why oh why didnt you guys let me know you were here.
Brad and Michael both grow up with me. We all knew each other from grade1. So the three of us was the best of friends. We do alot together. Brad sit at the tables and phone his order in with extra coffee for us because we were in no hurry as i got nothing from Sadie i will see her tonight at home. Brad why are you here? Thought you were working today. i ask Brad.
i did catch up with my admin as my PA is on leave so i have to do the admin. i just hate admin but atleast i just have to do it once a year when Olivia is on leave.
Just then our order arrive. i just love this place it feels so homey. i really feel at home when im here. i was thinking.
Just then Brad bite in to a Almond square and choke the the flakes of the pastrie .
Me and Micheal fell of our chairs from laughing at Brad. All the people in the café was watching us .
Trust Brad to make a scene when he chokes. Brad just rolled his eyes at me and continue to eat his sweets.
Brad ask out of the blue i wonder why she called the café sweet revenge .
Maybe because if you eat her sweets you gain weight and thats her revenge Micheal suggested.
i wonder why would Brad say it like he know the owner of the café but i didnt put more thought in to it as it was getting late and i still need to walk Rocky.
i excuse myself from the table went outside sent a text to Sadie that im going home only to get a reply with 'ok'.
i drove home turn of the radio because i wasn't in the mood for music.
Got home saw rocky he was so happy to see me. Rocky is a blue nose pitbull i rescue from dog fighting. Rocky is very loveable and friendly not at all like when i rescued him.
i put on the leash on Rocky and we went to walk on the beach. Oh i live close to the beach got my own private access ro a private beach. After awhile of walking i sit on the sand toke off rocky lease and let him run for abit while i just sit here and stare at the sea.
After about 30min i get rocky and we head back home.
Chapter 2
Sadie pov
I guess i wasnt the nices person with Paul today. just dont know why i feel so irritated with him today He cant even leave me in peace for shoe shopping with my girl although he didnt know the girls was with me. When he left to sit outside i phone them to come and help me to look for the perfect shoe. Christie arrived first. she is a model just me and Ansu. i had long blond hair with blue eyes skinny figure like most models. Christie had curly red hair with green eyes also skinny figure. Ansu had dark brown long hair with hazel eyes abit more curves then us but not fat at all. Just she had boobs and a butt we didnt.
As i greeted Christie Ansu arrived to. We are the best of friends because we understand what it takes to be a model and sometimes its lonely.
Atleast i have Paul he is also very good looking guy very tall briad shoulders square jaw got muscle but not to much. dark brown her tanned skin grey eyes that i love to get lost in.
Ansu squal i can't believe your wedding is in 4 months that around the corner. All three of us scream in excitement. i was really excited for the wedding.
ok girls lets go look for my wedding shoes. We walk to another exclusive shoe boutique. We went and look at alot of shoe i tried i couple pairs on but nothing that i really wanted. It was lunch time already so we went to a restaurant for lunch close by. while the waiter arrived my phone rang it was Paul.
Hello babes i answer. he spoke but i didnt hear a word that he said as i was listening what the girl are ordering.i want the chicken salad i chip in. oh i must answer him. ok whatever i dont care babes and hang up the phone.
Whats wrong Sadie Christie ask
i just zone out on my fiance and then just said whatever don't care and hang up on him.
oh no im sure Paul will understand because you are a bridezilla sometimes.
Geeez thanks Christie.
You welcome what are friends for. Ansu just rolled her eyes at us and not saying much.
As we sit in restaurant eating our salads that i must add is the best salad i had in awhile.
This salad is so delishes and the chicken yum.
the girls agreed that it was a good salad. i just hope the dressing dont have alot of calories. No Ansu i really don't think so and stop worrying you look way to awesome to worry over calories.
Awe thanks bestie i told Ansu. Hey what about me Christie chirp in. Christie you both are my bestie. i love you both very much. We sit and talk while we finish our lunch.
when we were done the waiter came with a note to me. This is for you and handed me the note. On it stands you are a real beauty heres my number i will make more salads for you any day just call me. Rick the chef.
As i turn to look at the kitchen he was waving at me. He has a very charming manner that really appeals to me but im with Paul i reminded myself. I'm going to marry him in 4 months.
The girls ask me what is in the note. i showed the note to them and Ansu just stared at me. Christie say i know that look you having second thoughts are you. Christie can always read me as a open book cant hide much from her. No never i love Paul and will marry him in 4moths. Hopefully i will get the right shoe before the wedding.
Yes you will Ansu said to me.
I'm just tired as i been looking all day for something but haven't even find anything that I remote like. Do you want to go to italy with me my dad is flying me out for a week there. You can always come with me and then we can look for shoe in Rome. Christie you can come awell. We can make it a girls vacation of it.
We both said Yes in together and is so excited to think we going to Italy.
It's strange as i feel more excited to go to Italy for a week with my girls then the wedding to Paul. Hello earth to Sadie. I shake my head to clear my negative thoughts and just put it off as wedding jitters. As I'm to Italy for my shoe we dont have to walk around here looking for them anymore.
Although i dont think there much shops left that i didnt went in to look for shoes. So we went outside and got a taxi. Ansu wanted us to visit her at her apartment for the rest of the afternoon. i got a text from Paul say that he is going home to walk Rocky. i just send ok back. Just dont think i want to talk more to him. I'm going to let my hair downfor the rest of the day.
Ansu has a beautiful apartment so modern with a patio that looks out on the sea.
Who wants cocktails Ansu ask?
We do!!! me and Christie answer in unison. Ansu made Cosmo yum its my favorite cocktail. Yes i know it is said Ansu thats why i made it. You two is the best bestie i could ever ask for.
As we drink the afternoon away i had abit more then i think would so im really feeling it. Christie went home but i lay down on Ansu couch and before i knew it i pass out .
Chapter 3
Paul pov
After i came back from walking Rocky i had a swim and then i sat down to watch a game to past time. i was starting to wonder where Sadie could be so i tried to call her . What the use of having a phone when it off. I really started to worry now so i phone Ansu.
Hello
Hello Ansu its Paul. Do you perhaps know where Sadie is? I tried to call her but her phone was off so i worried that something might have happen to her.
Don't worry she came over we had cocktails and she passout on my couch.
Sho what a relief.
Thank you i will come over to get her if its fine with you.
Yes thats no problem with me. You more then welcome to come over. I will cook some supper for us.
You really dont have to.
But i insist.
That would be great thanks alot.
See you soon.
Bye
Bye
As i drive to Ansu apartment to get my fiance and have supper there. i still have this nagging feeling that something is not right and my feelings are normally spot on. Maybe its time to go see that Meduim again to settle this feeling. Yes i know its normally a girl thing to go see meduims and spiritual people but im into the stars and believe in stuff like that.
I arrived at Ansu apartment. Sadie is still pastout on the couch. Ansu open the beautiful artsy door. Hello Ansu thank you for calling me, glad that she have you as a friend.
Awe come on i didnt do much, actually I'm the cause of this. Ansu said point at Sadie.
Let me guess Cosmos right. i ask Ansu with a smirk on my face. Because i knew Sadie couldn't resist Cosmos especially Ansu Cosmos.
Ansu look guilty. I'm sorry Ansu told me. No worries while i hug Ansu. She look like she needed a pick me up since she didn't find the shoes.
Oh i get that she wants everything to be perfect.
After talking to Ansu about 20mins Sadie decided to wake up. Hello sleepy head Ansu greeted the half awake Sadie.
Hello baby. Are you ok can i get you some water i asked Sadie.
Uhm hello babes. Yes please Sadie answered me with a yawn. I chuckle and went to the kitchen to get her water.
Ansu told Sadie he phoned me and was so worried about you. So i told him you were here to get him to relax and invited him for supper.
Thank you Ansu that was really nice thing of you to do. Sadie told Ansu with a smile of appreciation.
Here your water baby. Paul handed me a cold glass of water. Thank you babes just what i needed. i gulp the whole down so fast i started to choke. Ansu wacked me on the back. Are you ok baby? Yes cough im fine cough or i will be.
Ansu stand up. How about Chinese food Ansu ask. That would be lovely we both answered her. Great stuff Ansu said and toke her phone to order. Awhile later our food arrived we were watching a movie so we enjoyed the Chinese with the movie. After movie me and Sadie went home. Thank you Ansu it was a real nice evening.
It was a really quiet drive home. Sadie was staring outside the window. I was concentrating on the road but was wondering whats really up with Sadie.
Are you ok baby?
Huh? Sadie ask.
I asked if you are ok baby?
Uhm yes im ok nothing to worry about. Sadie told me but sounded very unconvincing. But i left it there.
As we got home i open Sadies door for her we got inside. I'm going to take a shower. Sadie told me. Enjoy it baby i think I'm going to go sleep. i really feel tired and drain.
Ok babes enjoy it i wil join you as soon as i finish my shower Sadie said while getting her Pjs from the cupboards.
I went and get sweats to sleep in. When i finish putting on the sweats i climb in to bed as my head hid the pillow i fall in a restless slumber.
Chapter 4
a month later
Sadie pov.
I really can't wait to go to Italy. its just around the corner. I get out of bed and go to the bathroom to shower and get ready as im meeting the girls at the mall. We having a girls day today. Me and Paul have been ok since that night i pastout on Ansu couch. I figure he does really cares for me thats why he worries about me. So from my side i really tried to be more kind to him. i figure that i was a real b***h to him and he didnt deserve it at all.
As i dry my hair after my glorious shower i was thinking i need to go to salon and get my hair cut abit as its abit to long now. Well we can work that also in the schedule today at the mall maybe abit more streaks aswell. It's 9:15am i phone for a cab because i don't feel like driving in all the traffic. The taxi arrived, i got in and we drove to the mall. Outside i already see Christie and Ansu waiting for me. The taxi stop i paid him and got out. The girls got me in a group hug when they saw me walking to them. Whats the plan of action today Christie ask me as i normally have to plan our days out. Well first of all i think breakfast first then we need to go Patti Salon to get our hair. Christie eyes was round from shock. Please dont tell me you going to cut off your long hair it suits you so well. Christie stared at me waiting for a answer. Ansu just rolled her eyes at Christie reaction and whisper drama queen. I started to giggle but answered Christie. No just the tips with spilled end and i thought abit of streaks.
That would really look good on you Sadie. I also think i will get a cut and blow to. Me to Christie adds.
We got to a restaurant for our breakfast. I was really hungry so this morning i wont worry about calories as we will walk around the mall the whole day. I declare no calorie worries breakfast today. i second that Ansu said and i third that Christie shout it. i burst out laughing because she start to blush as she saw everyone looking at her. She's a awesome model but shy as hell dont know how that combo works but it does. Me and Ansu giggle so hard at Christie poor girl.
While we wait for our breakfast i sent Paul a message.
Hi babes
Just reminding you its girls mall day today so won't be home until late. Whats your plans for today as you not working today?
Sent.
i hold my phone waaited for a reply.
Hi baby.
Yes i do remember. You must enjoy it and send regards from me. I'm just going to walk Rocky and Brad coming over to come swim and watch the game and maybe have a bbq.
I read his message and pulled a face. Whats wrong both girl ask me. Brad is coming over. He really doesn't like me , So i really dont like him as he is a real tool. Well you won't go home early so maybe he is gone before you get there. Ansu reminded me. Oh true you have a point there Ansu.
i sent Paul a message back.
Well enjoy it with your friend. i wont be home early babes.
Got a message back.
i will miss you baby.
i read it and put the phone away.
So Christie will you do anything to your hair at the salon?
Uhm Christie twirl one of her curls between her finger while she thinks. Maybe just a cut and blown wave. i like the color of my hair Christie answered.
After we finished our yummy calorie loaded breakfast we head for the salon. As we get to the salon i told the hairdresser i want some copper streaks in my hair with a trim please. Oh honey the copper would look lovely with your blond hair such a good choice i cant wait to see how you going to look the hairdresser said exciting.
Yes i cant wait to think the change will do me good. Yes forsure it will honey. As she did my hair we chatted about my up coming wedding and my trip to Italy. When she was finish with my hair she did a big reveal for it. I was so surprised that it come out that great. I'm so grateful it look so beautiful i love it so much i told the hairdresser. Oh honey im just happy that you love it. I paid for our hairs. The girls also look good although they just had a trim and blow wave.
After the salon we decided to go watch a movie and just relax then we will go do shopping after our movie. We went for a romantic comedy. We bought popcorn and slushies oh and i got smarties. I really was enjoying our day so far with the girls. This movie looks good so far i told Christie and Ansu they both agree on it. Half way through the movie i had to give out tissues because all 3 of us were crying about the movie. I know its such a girl thing but i think we just more emotional and connected to our emotions more. That was really a great movie i would watch it again Ansu told us. We both agreed with her.
As we made our way to the shops i was thrilled to do abit of shopping. I actually didnt needed anything but just want to enjoy myself. So where are we going first? To that boutique i pointed out. In the window i saw a beautiful red dress i really like the dress so I'm going to buy it for our Italy trip. Both girls agreed that it would look lovely on me and i have to have it. Ansu ask me if she could buy it for me. i told Ansu ok but i could really buy it for myself. But thanks Ansu i would love it. i saw a green dress and a blue one i got one of each not for myself as they all think but the green was for Ansu and blue one would look great on Christie. Now just to look for matching shoes. As we walk to a shoe boutique my heel broke. Damn i cant believe my heel just broke. I walk cripple until we get to the shoe boutique. Well this call for two new pairs of shoe i said excited. I won't let a broken heel spoil my day with girls. I feel in such goid spiritsthat i won't cry over spilled milk. Ansu and Christie is looking at me. Are you ok they both ask ? Because they know normally i would freak out over stuff like this. i just smiled and said im more then ok i feel so happy being with you both today. Today is really doing me good. They both gave me a big group hug and we went in to look for shoes. We really love shoes i said and giggled. Yes we really do they both agreed with me. After the shoe shopping i atleast replaced my broken shoe with new heels.
Ansu suggested why don't we have a sleep over at her place tonight We could drink cocktails watch movies eat sushi eat more popcorn.
I'm so in and know Paul wont mind at all. Christie yes i would love it. Steven is away with work in anyway so nothing holding me back. Ok so we can go home pack over bag and meet at your place in a hour. That would be great Ansu agreed. We all catch a cab home.
i got home to see Paul and Brad swimming. i went outside to greet them and to tell Paul about our plans.
Hi babes.
Hi Brad.
Oh hi baby didnt expect you home so soon.
Hi Sadie Brad greeted with a smirk on his face.
i just ignore him because i dont want to mess up my good mood
Ansu ask if me and Christie can do a sleepover at her place so i just came to pack a bag and go over there for tonight. i told Paul. He looked at me funny and ask ain't you to old for sleepover baby. I rolled my eyes at him and walked in the house into the bedroom. i got a suitcase out the cupboard and set it open on the bed. i went back in the cupboard and get clothes , pjs, costume and underwear. As i turn around to put it in the suitcase i see Paul standing in the room. He arching his brow at me. Yes can i help you. I ask Paul sarcastic. No i just want to know whats wrong with you that you look so pissed. You pissed me off when you said we to old for sleepover. i throw my clothes into the suitcase and turn and went in the bathroom. Paul walk in after me.He put his arm around my waIst kiss me on my neck and said baby i was just joking with you. I pulled away and spin around to face him. I really don't think that was funny. Thank you for spoiling my good mood. He come closer and hug me i really am sorry i really didn't mean to upset you baby.Yes but you did and i really didn't need to be treated this way. Go and keep Brad busy im almost done then on my way. Baby i really am sory he kiss me on the lips. i kiss him back to let him know i forgave him. Is there something you need want a cider before you go baby ? Yes please with lots of ice and lemon will come drink it when im finish here. Ok baby will do. love you. Paul told me. Yeah me to i told him. I started to get my toiletries and hairbrush.
I just started to think he haven't even notice my hair that i changed it. Way to go fiance of the year i say. Well im not in the mood for more fights. I will just forget about it. My mom once told me choice your battles wisely. I finish packing my suitcase and rolled it to the lounge. Went into the kitchen to see my glass on counter. I grab the glass and toke a big sip of cider mmmmmm that is so good and refreshing. I went outside to the pool to thank Paul for my drink. As i hot outside i heard Brad told Paul why oh why are you taking her crap she a real spoiled b***h. Luckily i heard Paul coming up for me. Hey listen bro i know we been friends for so many years but please dont talk about my girl like that i really dont appreciate it when you talk about her that way its really disrespectful. I went outside and kiss Paul and said thank you for my drink i really appreciate it. I sit in Paul's lap until i finish my drink. Paul hug me closer to him. So what is your plan for the rest of the day?
Paul said we phoned Michael he will be joining us here to.
