SOPHIA CASTILLO POV
It's been over two weeks since I started schooling at New York University and things have been going fine. Every Friday I go back home and spend time with Adrian.
It's just impossible to stay away from him for two minutes as he'd come to me immediately. He said he was taking advantage of the days I'd be with him.
I fell more and more in love with him. Whenever I think of how we started and how we are now, I am amazed by it.
I disliked the color blue because each time I looked at Adrian's eyes I was terrified but now it is my favorite color again.
Adrian had not failed to shower me with love and care and each time, it made my heart melt. If there was a word stronger than love then it would be what I felt for Adrian.
I've been staring at my phone for a while now as a text or a phone call has not come from Adrian today as he is always checking on me almost every hour but today it's different and it sent an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach.
I have been tempted to call him but I didn't because I felt he might be in an important business meeting and so I do not want to disturb him.
I sighed while biting my lips. I haven't been able to concentrate on my assignment because I have been waiting for a call or text from Adrian.
Since I couldn't call him, I sent a text message to him two hours ago and he was yet to reply.
Sighing, I decided to send another text message to him.
TO THE LOML: Hi baby, how is your day? I hope you are fine. Call me as soon as you see this text.
I sent the text message and turned my phone off so that I could concentrate on my assignment.
Some minutes later, my roommate, Annabella entered the room. "Hi," she said.
Annabelle is the same age as me and also my coursemate. She has red hair and she's beautiful and tall too. She just started modeling but she's more of a face model.
"Hi," I replied to her.
"How was today?" I asked her because she told me she had a shoot for a make-up company and so she left this morning.
"It was great. I'd sent the picture later to you to see. I'm exhausted," she said, taking off her shirt.
Annabella didn't mind being naked in the room. She felt the clothes were too much and so in the room, she was mostly in her panties and bra.
"I'm going to take a shower and I'd join you later," she said before heading to the bathroom.
She knows I'm married but she doesn't know my his and she has been pressing to see a picture of him but I refused to show her. I'd show her soon but not now.
A smile crept onto my face when I finally saw a text message from Adrian.
FROM THE LOML: I'm so sorry for not texting or calling you today. There was an emergency so I went on a business trip to France. I slept all through the flight and I just got to my suite. How are you?
I couldn't believe it. He went to France and I wasn't informed.
TO THE LOML: And you didn't tell me? Really?
FROM THE LOML: as stated in my previous text, I mentioned it's an emergency. It happened and I had to leave today. It wasn't planned but impromptu but I'm sorry I didn't tell you before leaving.
I sighed.
TO THE LOML: How long will you be there and what's the purpose of the business trip?
FROM THE LOML: It would take like two weeks. It's for the conclusion of the dealing the Monteiro company. Since we are partnering or more like buying their company, we will have to do a little changing and coming to terms so it would take like two weeks for me to finalize that but trust me, I'd do that as soon as possible go back to you.
I wondered how I'd be able to cope for two weeks without Adrian. This means that I won't be spending my weekend with him and also next week because of this.
I've never really thought of this and now that I thought of it, I've realized that I've gotten very clingy and I'm unable to stay away from him for long.
TO THE LOML: So we are spending this weekend away from one another right?
FROM THE LOML: sadly and trust me when I tell you that I am not happy about it at all but this is good for you. You will get to go out with your friends and hang out so that's something good.
TO THE LOML: I'm surprised you are saying this. That's true, I'd get time to spend with them but I only have one friend and that's my roommate.
FROM THE LOML: Well, hang out with her. You have your card and you have mine but I'd love it if you used mine. Go spend some time with her and enjoy yourself. I'd miss you so much but I want you to have a good time.
I felt my heart melt. The fact he always puts me first is something I cannot get used to.
TO THE LOML: I was expecting you to handle this bad but it turns out you are handling it well and I'm handling it bad. I'm going to confess. I don't think I'd be able to survive without you this weekend and the next weekend.
FROM THE LOML: I want to record myself laughing right now. Trust me when I tell you I'm trying to be a better man to you. But it's fine. We will meet in three weeks and trust me when I tell you that we will be covering up for the two weeks we spent apart and the beds might end up breaking from the dirty things I want to do with you but that won't be all we do. There will be a lot more and more memories to make. Enjoy my love.
