His Rectifying Graze [COMPLETED✔]

CHAPTER 38: Armando's Death [✔]

KATE’s P.O.V.

         A week has passed, and I’m not yet sure if I’m going to accept that deal of my director to went home to the Philippines. Though I also wanted to grab it since Dad is sick and I wanted to be with him. I’m just too afraid to face the hurtful reality again. My life here in Paris became a fairytale that would make me feel hard to believe about everything that happened back in that country.

“So, what are we going to have for dinner?” Fiona asked enthusiastically.

        I’m very thankful that she’s here. She never failed in lighting up anyone’s mood. I’m sure that she’s going to be a good wife someday.

“Uhm... Anything? You can chose whatever you want,” I stated, too lazy to think of something that we should eat.

“How about brownies? What do you think?” she asked, smiling from ear to ear.

“Really? For dinner?” I chuckled to myself.

“What? You told me to choose anything, and I want brownies, Kate...”

“Psssh. Whatever. Then go ahead and bake some.”

        She clapped her hands like a kid before pulling out the instant mixture of brownies in our cupboard.

“Here... You're definitely gonna love this one.”

“Yeah, yeah, whatever.”

           I sat down on the couch, turning on the television before I took a deep breath. The film playing on our television is the same movie that Elijah and I watched before we did that thing... The first time I surrendered myself to him. I smiled, then blushed. I miss him so much. I just don’t know where to start again.

“Fiona?” I called her name.

“Yeah? I’m busy here, you know.”

         I looked at her direction, and she’s currently mixing the instant mixture of brownies with water. I glared at her, and she put on a peace sign at me.

“Sorry...  I’m just joking. What is it?” She raised both of her brows, wanting to find out what my question is.

“Where did you get this film?” I asked, pertaining to the romantic movie currently playing on the television.

“Uh, that one? I bought it to the movie store nearby. Do you like it?”

“No. I love it... Very much.”

          I looked away, but before that, I saw her shook her head several times before chuckling to herself. I’m definitely in the mood to watch this kind of film while eating some brownies.

         Fiona sat beside me, maybe waiting for the timer of our oven to stop. She looked at me, and I stared back at her.

“What?” I asked.

“You remembered something, don’t you? It is Elijah?” I looked away, blushing. “You know, maybe I was destined to bought that film...” she stated and I laughed.

“What?” I tried to suppress my laughter, but I failed miserably.

“You know, maybe fate made me chose that film for you to remember something... Or maybe, it’s a sign that you should come home to him...”

        A sign? That’s not impossible at all, I guess. But maybe she’s right. Fate is making a way for us to be together again. It’s doing everything it can just to lead me back into his rectifying arms.

        I was about to say something when we heard the oven’s timer. Fiona instantly stood up to get the brownies, and I just shut my mouth up. A few moments later, she came back, holding a plate of brownies in her hand.
