I chewed on the rice Krispies while talking to Hannah on the video call.
" so you think he's going to propose, " I asked excitedly.
" I don't know....it feels like it...he asked my manager for my ring size and stuff," she said blushing hard.
" there's going to be a wedding in the family," I said excitedly the food spilling out of my mouth.
"No...what if it is just a present," she said handing her stylist the spray bottle.
" then you still get a ring....what about mom, dad, and Leo?" I asked. Leo is my mom's boyfriend they had been dating for about seven years now.
" hmm mom is happy that he's rich and famous, Leo I don't know and dad you know him he doesn't like anyone," she said tiredly. " what about you?" she asked as the foundation was being applied? " me...I like him teds fun...." I said smiling.
" how long are you going to stay in this new place? " she asked, I haven't told my family anything about the murder or that I was staying with Austin I told them I had shifted to this new place as there was painting going on at my new apartment.
" Once the painting is done ill go back...." I said trying to be cool.
" shawty! " Austin yelled, I quickly turned off the phone, almost falling off the couch in the process.
He looked at me suspiciously " I was talking to Hannah " I said leaning against the couch with my elbows.
He nodded his head in understanding walking towards me " still did not tell her about moving here " he asked tucking my hair behind the ear " naa... she'll start suspecting something is going on between us " I said sitting on the backrest of the couch my feet dangling in the air.
He gently brushed my cheek " Is nothing going on between us? " he asked. My head was running a marathon not knowing what to answer, what the hell is this man doing to me?
" Hazy " a high-pitched Eddie screeched entering the room.
He and Roland were wearing brown and black leather jackets their hair neatly gelled back looking like bikers.
" what the hell are you wearing ?" I asked weirded out, while Austin was busy laughing.
" This is cool right," Roland said excitedly, but we could see through Eddies face that he hated it.
" who's idea was this?" Austin asked trying to stifle his laughter.
" Roland," Eddie said grumpily. Austin and I started laughing not bothered about them feeling bad.
" bitch....stop and get dressed we are getting late," Eddie said annoyed, while Roland was busy eating an apple.
" where you guys going ?" Austin asked taking off his jacket.
" Clubbing.... she's got a date today," he said Austin stopped for a second looking at me with no expression, he ran his hand through his hair clenching his jaw, his eyes averting towards the floor.
" I'll be back in twenty minutes," I said running toward my room quickly.
I wore a black velvety short dress,with my grey thigh-high boots and my mini Valentino black purse that complimented the dress perfectly. I blow-dried my hair and applied a bit of mascara and some lip gloss I was ready to go.
I walked down placing my phone in my purse, hearing my footsteps Austin stood up looking at me, not having any plans to look away.
I could feel my entire body heat up under his stare "you're so beautiful " he mumbled gently holding my hand and placing a kiss on the inner side of it.

" Bitter Truth ".
Lãng mạnThe smile on his face, misleading. The innocence in his eyes makes you believe something that's not true. His laughter makes the brave hearts tremble. He was termed to be innocently cruel. He isn't your typical mafia. He is 'Austin Wilker.' ©️ Copy...
