Be Your Own Spring novel Chapter 63

Zella, You goof!

He cut me off and said, "Hey, hey, I don't think you're a nut job, though you act like one" he laughed wholeheartedly and that made him seem like a Santa Claus cause his laugh was just like one.

Santa Claus.... Hilarious!

Kezr would totally laugh at that.

"And Iam sorry I scared you like a 'burglar'," he said raising his hands in air as quotation marks. "But I think you should really get ready cause Kezr expects you at 8pm and it's 7.15 already."

Dino-nuggets! Gotta hurry.

"Okay! Iam going to go get ready!"

I shouted as I practically sprinted to my room to get in the shower.

Wow! You didn't even ask him about Kezr.

Baloney!

I turned around and ran towards the driver in the living room.

Gosh Iam out of breath!

"W-wh-here? And why is Kezr taking me?"

"He is taking you at a business meeting, 'Why?'..... Well I think you should ask that to Kezr. Oh, and he said as the clients are informal so wear a dress or something casual."

Business meeting?

Yes, you idiot that's why we are in Greece aren't we.

"Okay, thanks... Give me 30!" I said repeating what I did earlier.

Took a hot shower, put lotion, picked out this pink dress which is a little flowy, wore black sandals, for makeup; eyeliner, mascara, lip balm. I pressed my lips together and rolled them.

I looked in the mirror and saw how this dress is clearly showing my chubbiness. Maybe I should change.

No, remember, Kezr thinks you're gorgeous.

And that was all the reassurance I needed.

Spraying my cheap butt perfume, wearing my glasses and messing my hair up a bit, I left my room.

Kevin laughed and looked at me through the rear view mirror and said, "You know you're just like my daughter, she is the same energetic person like you, I can never cope up with her energy."

Kevin is laughing at me because I took the vase and ran towards him. Iam a full blown tomato right now.

Right now, Iam in the car heading towards the restaurant that has this business meeting.

Kezr didn't ask me to bring any documents but I have them saved on my work phone so I bought my work phone.

I was telling him to stop joking when he literally stopped the car and said, "Bye."

"Wait, no I didn't mean for you to stop the car, I meant stop joking."

He laughed his Santa Claus laugh and said, "I know, but this is your destination."

I looked around and saw a deserted road.

"What? No, this is a deserted road, what am I doing here?"

"Okay here's what you do if you want to be safe. Do what Iam saying, okay?" He said and I nodded, scared that Kezr called me here to kill me and there is no meeting because he is angry at me for what happened in the morning.

"First, Open the door."

I did.

20...

21...

22...

And... 23...

I looked up and I gasped.

It was the beach indeed. I was standing on the sand and in front was the beach. I took off my sandals and wiggled my feet in the sand.

The waves clashed each other. I closed my eyes smiling slightly, feeling relaxed.

Suddenly, I was grabbed by my waist and I was pressed into a wall. I jumped and got scared, my heartbeat really fastened.

I looked behind my shoulder and saw Kezr looking at me with a big smile on his face.

I smiled like a big kid in a candy store seeing his favorite candy.

My heartbeat didn't slow down instead it fastened even more at the sight of him.

I looked up front and he put his hands on my eyes.

"Kezr, wha-?....I can't see, remove them" I whined while trying to clutch his hands off but he didn't budge.

I felt his hot breath hit my ear and cheek and my heartbeat started racing at each hot breath that hit my face.

He whispered really slowly in a deep-hoarse voice. "Darling, just wait... Think you can do that?"

I nodded absentmindedly as I couldn't hear anything but my heart and feel nothing but his breath.

Suddenly, he picked me over his shoulder and started walking.
