Are you better? ( He asks and I groan )
I'm alright...God where are they? It's 1:00am
I think Jessie has a good head on her shoulder she'll be fine
Oh it's not her I'm worried about ( the doorbell rings and Josh opens the door to see a very worried Zach)
Hey man didn't expect to see you here
Yeah...
Yvette where my wife?
Mm she went dancing with my baby sister ( he massages his temple)
Don't worry though I know the bartender there, he'll pick a cab for them
She told me she was gonna be out but not this late( they brag into the house with Ellie extremely drunk)
Oh..it's my husband ( she says smiling)
Okay come here( he carries her)
Jessie how much did she drink!
I think the question is what did she drink, some nutcases made a concoction and she drank it( I smile at Zach)
I'll take her home now
Wait...I want my husband
He's right here dear( he says kissing her forehead)
Hubby ( she drifts off into sleep)
Bye guysWell I guess I'll leave then bye Yvette ( he says and leaves)
Ahhh Ohemaa that handsome man is Soo into you
Go to bed young lady ( she frowns and goes to her room)The next morning I woke up energized I went for a jog, I wore a cream v neck dress with a white coat and tied my hair in a ponytail.
Jessie since you don't know what to do now, you'll be working at the shop, you will help Rosie and Giselle with their work and handle the finance of the shop, at the end of the month I'll pay you like an employee
Thank you thank you thank you, I won't let you down
I know you won'tThird person pov
In the weeks Yvette kept working non stop, she barely ate anything and sometimes she'd even sleep in the office overnight. It paid off though, the profit kept increasing but she was slowly losing herself, she barely spoke and thoughts of her childhood and mother kept eating her up.
All over the country people were buying the cupcakes, biscuits and making orders from the shop. Ellie was working hard too, she made sure no miscalculations we're made as she is the finance head and the COO of the company, Yvette was another case she kept her head in the game. Getting herself busy with work was good for her..so she thought.Yvette's pov
Ms Yvette should I order lunch for you
Yes please...wait have the paperwork been done
No( I look at the time and sigh)
Get me a bagel and bring them so I sign
Miss Yvette you've not eaten anything it's 3 :00 pm
Renee!!( She smiles and does as I say)My last meeting was with the information team and Ellie was waiting for Zach to come pick her up.
You both almost kissed??
Yeah...also Victoriano seems to still be in love with me
Ooo honey two hot guys like you..but it's been years since Mr Mexicano I thought you two were friends now
Yeah so did I until(I felt dizzy so I held Ellie)
Hey you good?
Yeah..I guess so
Zach!( He kisses her)
Hey Yvette
He...hey( everything was looking black I was losing my balance then.....)She's gonna get from me when she wakes up
Ellie be quiet ( I hear Ellie and Jackie talking in my sleep)
Wait she's opening her eyes( I open my eyes to see that I'm in the hospital)
What's going on here?
What's going on is you fainted
I what?
Oh surprised what did you expect ( Ellie said angrily and Zach holds her)
Yvette!( Josh enters with a very worried look)
Okay was is that serious that you had to call him here
Yvette you scared us..a lot( Jackie says)
I'm finee
I don't think so Miss Yvette ( the doctor enters saying)
Your blood sugar is extremely low and you developed anemia
And you say you're fine
Well it's not in the sever cases so she'll be fine by resting well and eating well
Okay so I'm fine right ( I start removing the niddle from my hand)
Yvette..stop! Do you have any idea how worried I was( Josh says looking in my eyes)
Why worry I'm fine.
Yvette ( he holds my hand)
Well we'll leave you guys to talk( Jackie says pulling everyone out)I'm sorry for scaring you
Now please take better care of yourself
Josh I want to be better but I keep letting things that happened in the past hunt me
What things( I look down knowing I can't tell him yet)
Sometimes I just want to escape from reality
Well then let's escape together, go to Spain with me and my best friends
Jo..Josh
We will go say friends and nothing more
I'll think about it..go to work I'm fine
Okay see you soon
