At the Cabello apartment,
Rome city_ Italy.
Lalisa sat on the cushion that was situated in a section in her room
she had a pad in her hands as she played video games
After some minutes, she got a text, logging into her WhatsApp a smile curved on her lips as she realize that it was her boyfriend Manuel that had texted her
Manuel:
I and my friends are in the xoxo club down your street and its actually boring without you here
she smiled
Lalisa:
I'm also bored here at home as usual my parent aren't around and my sister is outta town
Manuel:
Why don't you come and join me also bring Esmeralda with you
That got her frowning
Lalisa:
I don't think she would actually agree to come with me after the little stunt you and your friends pulled on her, in fact I won't even let her come
Manuel:
Common you and I both know the reason why you actually befriended her, you did it to get her to do your assignment and help you out with your test
Lalisa:
well that was before I got to know her, if you don't want to change your opinion about bringing Esmeralda then I ain't coming, I hope you have fun without me
And with that she tossed her phone on the cushion, racking her hands through her hair, she resumed playing
"I don't need him to have fun"
She said
At the Makessa mansion,
Rome _ Italy.
It was weekend and as usual Esmeralda was left to do the house chores with the fellow maids while Viktoria and Alyssa tour the city and great beyond.
It was usually stressful, in fact her week as been stressful due to the preparation of the Reggani family visit
After several hours, she was finally able to rest and was now laying on the bed that was situated at the edge of the room
She held her phone login into her WhatsApp, she was actually surprised to see a message from an unsaved number
The unknown sender:
Hi
She sighed and replied
Esmeralda:
Hello
After waiting, she decided to view Lalisa status when a message pop in
The unknown sender:
You finally replied to my message after it seems like forever, how was your day
Esmeralda:
it was nice though but who I'm I chatting with
The unknown sender:
Ouch, that hurt my feeling, its me primo
she tried recalling the name but it didn't seem to ring a bell in her memories
The unknown sender:
wow, you hesitating to reply means that you clearly forgot about me, its fine, I guess I have to remind you
I'm the guy that approached you in college and the one who almost ran you over
a smile crept her lips
Esmeralda:
I actually forgot and I'm sorry about that, I have been so busy lately, I'm really sorry
primo:
its not a problem as long as I'm chatting with you right now, I'm fine with it
Esmeralda:
Thank you
primo:
Are you still busy, I was hoping that since its weekend and I'm less busy and bored staying at home and my sister isn't helping matters, maybe we should hang out
Esmeralda bit her lips as her cheeks was pink
"O my God, is indirectly asking me out for a date"
She squealed with excitement as she rolled on the bed and throwing her legs in the air
Esmeralda:
Okay then
She found her hands typing
Primo:
I will come and pick you up, send your address
Esmeralda typed the Makessa mansion but stop Midway
"What do you think you are doing, don't you know you'll be in trouble if mother, Viktoria and Alyssa sees a car in front of the mansion, even father will be angry"
Esmeralda:
I will be waiting for you at the park close to Domino's estate
Primo:
Okay
She tossed the phone on the bed as she stood up walking towards her wardrobe
Opening it, she dragged out a railing of dresses
She placed it on the bed and pulled her standing mirror closer
She wore all the dresses one after another wanting to know the one that suit her best, she settled for a mid thigh lacy flay gown that gun her upper body.
"Its not that I want to please him, no I do not, instead I do not want him to think I'm old fashioned"
She assured herself trying to push the feelings she was harboring towards him
At the park,
Domino's estate
Primo leaned on the car as he patiently waited for Esmeralda who seem to be taking time than expected
"Are you waiting for someone sir"
A voice asked and he turned to see a man and with the way he was dressed he seem to be the security in charge of this park
"Yes "
He responded
"I'll advice you to call the person to hasten up, the park will close in five minutes"
The man informed and left
"Where are you Esmeralda"
He said and wanted to open the door to his car but stopped on sighting her
He had a smile on his face as his gaze lingered on her
She got to where she stood and smiled
"I must say you are very beautiful Esmeralda"
He complimented and her cheeks became as red as a tomato
Their moment was caught short when the door came open revealing Natalie who alighted looking at her
Esmeralda stood there with jealousy although she didn't show it
I wonder why he'll bring another lady when he's meant to be on a date with me"
Primo stared at her shocked but Natalie ignore his glaring gaze as she faced Esmeralda
"Hi, I'm Natalie Martino" She introduced "Primo have told me so much about you, now I realize why he's so into you, you're so beautiful, can we be friends"
Natalie brought oh her hands to Esmeralda who shook it reluctantly as a smile appeared on her lips
"I can't believe I was jealous of his sister, Primo what at you doing to me"
