CHAPTER FOUR: A DAY IN HER LIFE
THE NEXT DAYS PASSED TOO QUICKLY. No matter how hard Christine wished that the time would stand still, it simply wouldn't. And before she knew it, it was already the weekend and ready to go to Boston.
After what happened, Ian left her in the room and no sign of anything that happened in that bar remained closed. She only knew that he was Isaac's brother. Nothing more or less. The whole weekday she felt so numb and in pain. Because of what they do, and she loves every second of it and now her body is wanting more. She wants him.
“Are you okay?” Isabella asked when she saw her leaning on her condominium. She is staying on it and doesn't want to go home. She wants to avoid them in the meantime, for the sake of her peace. And she was afraid that her father would rush the wedding. She receives a message saying that she had dinner at 7 in their favorite restaurant with her fiance.
“Not at all. Are you sure you don't have any contact with him?” Christine asked, and Isabella gave her a hopeless answer. She wants to see Ian but she thinks it is the last time and Boston might lose her in a wander. She wishes.
Ian gave her something that no one could get. The attachment. So she decided to do something before she got done. “Let's go to the bar,” Christine said, and Isabella just gave her a look. “ Oh no, don't tell me you're in love?”
“I'm not.. I just want to get laid by him. Only him.” Christine said, and prepared for the night.
Christine wears only a top and a pair of high waists that can make her body curve. Then a pair of heels and red lipstick that can match herself. When it comes to having beauty, Christine had it all. She had it all that all of the men are drooling over her when she walks on.
Isabella is so happy knowing that her friend is looking forward to something but she knows how complicated it is. But she is staying no matter what. The two ladies walk into the bar and get wasted and it was three hours, but no one came. Even Isaac, no one could reach him. Sounds, loud music and hard liquor made their way to their noses as they felt those people getting nasty things.
Christine is always new to this, so she is fascinated by how people do their things, getting happier, sad, and doing everything that they do to forget how life should be. But for now she wants to see him. Only him.Ian.
That's why Christine feels something in her.
Sadness.
“Let's go home. I need to go to Boston first thing in the morning,” she said, and Isabela knew. That's why she was glad to have him. “But let's go to the coffee shop first.” She said and smiled.
“Beautiful” as Christine walked on the rooftop of the coffee shop wherein she saw a dazzling panorama of stars. It is blinding and flashing on her. Saying that everything will be alright. I will be fine. The coffee was served and they were having asip. Isabella is just observing her all throughout the time and he seems so quiet.
“What happened?” Christine asked and Isabelle ventured out. She is her friend and she knows it. “It's just that I am happy to see you bloom and find something.” She answered and Christine just laughed at her. And later on she became quiet. It's been a week since she met Ian and she is afraid that it is something bigger.
“I'm not in love and never will be.” Christine said and they all just laughed at their foolishness.
—
Morning came and Chistine was already in Boston. For her weekends, to relax and just forget everything. She played her favorite song when she settled in her apartment. She noticed the changes and, as well, her old stuff. She was once a girl who wanted a normal life but because of her parents. She seems to have forgotten who she was.
Her apartment has a touch of pink and it seems so old. That's why she brought some paintings and got ready to go to the store to buy some new decorations. Christine spent from morning to afternoon. Painting the room as well as organizing some things to make her at ease. She likes doing that. Having a new life makes her want to stay here, but she knows that she has a company to run on.
Boston never failed to amuse her. As she started to roam around the city, she took a bakery shop and got some cake. And grab her favorite drinks as well as buy a new set of coffee machines for her new home. It was the only thing that she wanted, to have her own life. Without people looking at her. A normal one.
And the last of her destinations was the supermarket. She needs some ingredients for her recipe. Christine can live her own life but no one knows that she can. Even her parents are so possessive of her or might be scared that Christine is doing something or such. She rides a taxi when she gets home and that happiness inside builds up when she sees her apartment. And that feeling was something that Christine wanted.
Christinetine organized everything that she bought and put something on the fridge and started to take a shower. Even if it is hot water. She feels that Ian is touching her. Making her want more. But even her soul knows that Ian would want her.
She scrubbed her body at rest and used a big shirt to dress up and another laptop to check the emails and such. When she was done doing it, she made herself dinner and watched a movie. She likes to watch steamy movies because she has no romance in life and that's why she watched Fifty shades of Grey from season one to three. And Christine's reaction was nothing but reminiscing. On how Ian Made her complete and full.
Christine wants nothing, just to escape. And she found her escapade.
