"But you said you'd show me around." I pouted as I walk towards the kitchen counter, wearing nothing but Luke's button up from last night.

"I know, Babe but, I have work to do, This is like the first time ever this year of me being back here in Australia. The company needs their boss, right? I've always run the company whilst I was in Rosewood. I never got to visit the actual work place. Besides, I'll make it up to you tonight, and Australia is definitely better at night!" He winked as he grab an apple and a bottle of water in the fridge. "Make sure you go to your appointment later, I left the directions on a piece of paper underneath that cactus plant on that damned coffee table." He exclaimed leaning down to kiss me on my lips. "Take a cab, okay?"

I nodded being the obedient child I am.

After what seemed like a blink of an eye, Luke disappeared out of the door leaving me all alone here inside the flat.

I skipped my way towards the staircase.

I grabbed the piece of paper that was underneath the small plant pot and read it to myself.

Dr. Mary Chapman - OB Gynecologist / Pediatrician
1:30-2:30 PM appointment
Rm. 098 3rd floor. Chapman Clinic
Block. 11 Lot. 3, West of Sydney.

I looked at the time and it was 9 in the morning.

I guess I should start preparing.

I made my way towards the bathroom and took a quick shower.

I changed to comfortable clothes, some boyfriend jeans and a white shirt.

I didn't bother dressing up since its only a trip to the hospital. No point in wearing heels and a dress.

I grabbed some shoes to wear and made my way back to the bedroom. Staring at myself at the vanity mirror, I grabbed my make up kit and settled it on the table provided. I applied some mineral powder on my skin and a little pink blush on. Applied a little mascara on my eyelashes and some cherry Chap-stick on my lips.

I tied my hair to a high ponytail and made my way downstairs.

I was halfway down the staircase when I heard something vibrating.

"Shit!" I cursed under my breath.

I ran back up towards the side table drawer to grab my phone.

I have an incoming call and at least 47 messages and 21 missed calls.

It was Kate.

Fuck! Fuck it!

I shake both of my hands, panic rushing in my body, I can feel my skin heat up.

I hesitated but I answered the call.

"H-hello?" I stammered.

"Fuck! Finally? Where are you? Lisa is going all ballistic trying to find you! Are you okay?" My sister's voice was loud but she felt relied once she heard me.

"Yeah..yeah, I'm fine. I'm just-taking time for myself." I bit my lower lip. My voice was shaking.

"But where are you? When are you coming back? Tell me you did not runaway to avoid the wedding of the century?!" She bombarded me with questions.

"I'm in Australia, Kate. Don't tell our mother. I'm not coming back. And yes, this is the only option I figured out." I shut my eyes closed.

"Are you crazy?! Don't tell me you're not with Luke, please, please-"

"I'm with him and you have nothing to worry about. Just don't tell Lisa where I am. At least not this soon. You know I don't want to get married, Kate." I begged.
