Isabella received a call from her mother
"What's wrong, you don't look happy"
She told her everything that was happening
"Mom I want him to talk to me, I have gotten used to him and his antics" she said
And Abril heard her, he went to his room
"Ok mom talk to you later" she said and hung up
"Mom what's wrong?" Alice asked
"I talked with your sister"
"Is she alright?"
"Yes she's but what you said is right, your sister has started falling without even realizing"
"Are you going to tell her?"
"Let fate take it course" Amanda said
Matilda was ready with the list and Isabella was about to enter into the car when Abril came there
"I thought you said you were busy"
"I was but I can do anything for you, to see you happy" he said
"Flirt!!" Isabella said with a smile and he smiled
"Ok I was going to meet someone but that person is busy" he said and they went to the market
She was really good at negotiating with them on the price and value
"You're really good with this" Abril said
"Of course I buy fruits and other stuffs for our business" she said and smiled
She told him all about her family and her business and her buying and selling experience
Abril asked Isabella to wait for him as he loaded the stuffs
"Please ma'am reduce it for us"
"Come on your husband seems rich" the seller said
"Husband?"
"Yh the one accompanying you"
"Yes but ma'am the car is for the company he works for and he just got the job we can't be spending outside our budget but i really want this" she said
Abril came back
"Are you done?" He asked
"Come husband let's go the woman doesn't want to sell it to me" she said and wrapped her one hand around his waist
"Husband??" Abril whispered and she winked
He wrapped his hand around her neck
"Oh sorry wife, I wished I had enough money to get you everything you want" he said
"Alright come I'll sell it to you" the seller said
"Thank you" Isabella said
"You see love there're people who understands" Abril said and kissed her cheek and Isabella felt warmth and shocked
Abril took the things as she paid for them
"Stay happy always and may you Always be together, bonded by love" the seller said
"Such lovely couples" another seller said
Abril smiled
"Why did you have to put on an act just to get a discount I could have paid for you"
"Oh Abril you don't work, that money is the same as your mother's, I bought everything on the list I just bought some fruits to make juice and i couldn't overspend the money is not mine" she said and they drove home , on their way they stopped to eat ice cream, they had fun.
They arrived and Abril helped her unpack as she planned to make juice Abril helped her out
She was done and started serving the workers
"What about me" Abril said
"200 for a cup" she said
"Really?!"
"Yes" she smiled
"After all the help and pretending to be your husband?" He asked
"I never asked you to"
"Indeed you didn't but I loved that role today Please give me some" he said before realizing what he said, he expected Isabella to call him out but she just laughed and gave him a cup
"Thank you for today it was fun" she said and he nodded and tasted the drink
"Mmm"
"You like it?" She asked
"Very much" he said
They walked to the garden
"Sorry to ask but the first time I met you why didn't you just come home when you were stranded?"
" I was a prodigal son, who wanted to make it on his own"
"So did you make it?"
"Not really, I enjoyed life of freedom though"
"Freedom?"
"Yes freedom, I felt suffocated maybe because I was a bad son" he said
"What happened? Care to share" she asked
"I fell off with my mom, I always did things that made her ashamed to call me her son and she was right not to"
"What did you do?"
"It started when I did something bad really bad" he said and laughed
"Tell me what did you do" she asked because she was curious as to why a rich son was living like that, he told her about the issue that got him expelled
"Drugs???!"
"It doesn't surprise you right?" He said and scoffed
"Are you sure that's how the story goes"
"Why?" He asked
"You might be naughty and stuff but not to that extent, I thought it was because of you always causing minor problems so tell me did you do it or not"
"What do you think?"
"I don't think you did" she said and he smirked
