Jasmine Everly's P O V
"Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" I whispered in frustration, banging my head on the table at the memories of my embarrassing situation assaulting my head.
What the hell was I even thinking?! Kissing him like that and even rejecting him after?!
He must have thought that I was crazy, right?
I closed my mouth and shouted in my head, "Ahhhhhhgghhhhhh!".
What should I do now? How should I face him?! We are going to see each other for the entire month.
I sat there for a few minutes, staring at the designs, trying to work on them so I could get out of this, but it didn't help.
I can't focus on anything but the memories of his lips on mine and his hand all over my body.
*Ding*
My eyes turned to my phone, and a little smile curled up to my lips, seeing the wallpaper of my little girl. My Cece.
I grabbed the phone and stared into the picture, ignoring the message completely.
My memories flew back to the time of my pregnancy, and the time I gave birth to my beautiful daughter, Cece. I was in a lot of pain, and he was nowhere to be found. There were only 2 people by my side, my little Cece and Stacy.
He left me thinking that I cheated...
He left me when I needed him the most.
The pain and the struggle I went through when he abandoned me hit my heart harder.
Not only me, but my Cece went through a lot of pain because of him.
These memories completely blocked the one from before, and I felt so terrible to even give in space for those things!
Didn't I promise myself only to work and get the contract for Asher and nothing else?! Then why the hell am I giving in to those desires?! Why the hell am I even feeling guilty for rejecting him?! He... he was the one to kiss me, and I didn't start anything! .... Right!
I should keep my distance from that bastard from now on!
My lips curled into a small smile as I stared at my Cece's face, feeling the warmth in my heart.
"I miss her so much," I whispered, bringing the phone to my heart.
Then I called Ms. Martha and waited impatiently for her to pick up the call.
After a few rings, she attends the call and asks in confusion, " Hello, Ms. Everly...?".
"Sorry to call you this early, but can I talk to my daughter?".
"Oh yes, I will get her on the line," she said with a smile and a sigh of relief.
"Cece, your mom wants to talk to you." She called out, and within a few seconds, I heard my Cece's voice filled with excitement "Mama!".
"Baby!" I smiled at her excitement and asked, "You seem so excited.".
"You are the first parent to call today!" She replied in excitement, pressing each and every word like she was saying it to everyone around her.
I laughed a little and then asked, "Did you eat?".
"Yes, mama, Ms. Martha gave me a special dish, even though I don't know the name, but it still tastes good!" She replied with a huge smile.
"Really? Then I will get the receipt and make it for you too, baby," I replied as I smiled like an idiot.
"Thank you, mama! You are the best." Her voice kept increasing as she talks and I can say that, she wants everyone to know that.
"I miss you, baby. When are you coming back?" I said, getting up from the seat, and walked to the huge glass frame and leaned against it with a smile.
"I miss Mama too," she replied, like my Cece now. Small and cute.
"Now you want to have this cute and small voice, ahh?" I asked, even though I didn't complain.
"I LOVE MY MAMA THE MOST AND MISS HER SO MUCH TO THE POINT THAT I WANT TO GO BACK AND SEE HER NOW!" My eyes widen, when I hear her shout in her cute voice.
I am so sure that everyone in the camp can hear this.
"Baby, you don't have to shout," I replied, smiling from my ear to hear as I felt so happy.
"I have to, mama! BECAUSE I MISS YOU SO SOOOOO MUCH!" She shouts the last sentence again with that huge smile on her cute face.
I laughed this time, feeling too happy, and said, "When are you coming back? Let's go out and spend the day.".
"Soon, mama, soon. Just wait for your little girl for a day, and I will be there with you," she replied like a big girl now with that proud smile and her cute voice.
I talked for a few minutes before Ms. Martha took the phone, saying, "They are going to start their trip," and I thanked her again for her help.
I miss talking to my daughter, but now it feels so much more better.
I felt so lite and nice as I got back to my seat.
I promise myself that I won't get distracted and will focus on my work and nothing else.
He can't seduce me anymore! I am so fucking strong! I will beat the shit out of him.
Then I turned my eyes to the rough designs and smiled.
Then I started to work on them, focused, with lots of ideas flowing in.
I won't let him mock me or my designs this time. I will prove that my designs are so good that he can't take his eyes off them!
"Come on, Jess! You can do it! Show him your worth!" I whispered as I started to work.
On the other side :
Sabastian Donovan's P O V
"Mark, why can't I hear anything?!" I asked, as I stared at her smily face after talking to God knows who.
She was frustrated and banging her head like a crazy woman after I left the room. I was happy that she felt the same, but the moment I saw that one message popping up on her phone.
She called someone with all the smiley faces, forgetting our little make-out section!
