SOULMATES🦋

Chapter 6

Alex POV:

It has been 3years my parents moved to their house in small town located at the outskirts of Italy. I heard most of the people living in the town aren't born their, it is either they moved there for quietness, work or marriage. But my parent moved their because of the clash between Dad's business rival(which has been settled, he is now in jail for killing my beloved brother). I was told to stay with my Uncle, in case their are more rival that we don't know.

I got a text from Dad to come home after making sure there is no threat or whatsoever to attend a party for everyone that got admitted to Harvard for Masters. Who still throws a party for getting admission? Why should I be there? Can't I just stream it online? I hate party, it is always noisy, gosh!!!!.

I arrived home right in time for the party. Sighting my mum in our kitchen and I did what I never thought I could do, I ran up to her and carried her.

"Mummmm", I screamed "I missed you" why pecking her all over her face.

"Son, I missed you so much, I am sorry I couldn't come for once, I needed to be careful nobody knows your location", she said sadly.

"No prob, mum. Dad must have gone for a business trip again?", I asked.

"Yes Alex, but he should be back before you leave for school", she replied.

"But mum, you know I could run the Distance Learning program for my masters", trying my luck again if I can just stay at home and school.

"My baby boy, you have to go, so as to make more connection, you know you will be taking off the company after you are through with your masters and who knows, you might find your Soulmate that will be the woman behind your success, just like I am to your Father", she said with all smile.

"Alright, more, but can I at least not attend the party, you know I hate crowd".

"Nope, we are the organizer this time, nobody will know you, you just have to blend", Mum said, "moreover, there will be Chocolate cakes", Mum chipped in.

"Really, I'm all in".

Chocolate cakes are my favorite since childhood, ever since one of my female classmates I had crush on in Kindergarten, started sharing it with me. I could only remember her for something apart from the chocolate cake, she is always with an inhaler, but can't remember her name or face. She would have grown.

In less time, I was already at the pool side, trying to locate the cake stand but the pool is crowded. Getting to the stand I saw this pretty lady trying to snatch my baby from me because it is only one left. I decided to let it go because there is a note that says, "Bear with us, more cakes are coming" who wrote this nonsense, because I didn't know cakes now have legs.

"You can have it, I will wait for the fresh one", trying to sound cool and be a knight in the shining armor for a princess that wants to protect her cake. Damn!, She looks sexy in that bikini.

"Nope, you can have it", she said politely, but it could be heard in her voice that she is pleading I reject the offer.

"Nevermind", I really as I start to take my leave.

"Thank you", I heard her angelic voice says as I retreat.

I have walked 10 steps when I heard screams and turned to see the lady struggling to get out of the pool. I watched and noticed people closed weren't taking action. All of a sudden my leg started to work on it own, because personally I hate mingling in people's business.

Thank God, I was able to carry her out of the water and did CPR for her. But again, she started to gasp for air then she mutters.

"H...an, m...y inh...al..er", she gasped the more.

Like speed the lady she called for, which must be her friend brought her inhaler. With a puff she was better.

She looked at her and gave an appreciative smile and mutter "thank you, Han". She looked at the me and also said a shy thank you.

All of a sudden she stood with the support of her friend and faced another lady which I noticed was checking me out while I was with this mysterious girl at the cake stand.

"Betty, I can take any of your insult, but if you try this with me again at the determent of my health, I won't take it lightly with you" then she left.

It kicked in and everyone realized that, this girl called Betty must have been the one that pushed her. Well, I think I now know the number one person not to mingle with, her name is BETTY.

I tried looking everywhere for the lady, by the time I will sight her, I saw her entering a car with her friends and a guy.

Throughout, the day, I couldn't stop thinking about her. And oh, I never returned to the party after the incident but I got my chocolate cake brought to my room by one of the maids.

Who is that girl?
