Catching Dreams, Chasing You

CHAPTER 23

Another year had passed. I spent it with Seb being my man. I have a house but I'm living in his. I have money, but he's paying for my meals. I got head over heels crazy for him when he said "Just be happy, my girlfriend. Leave the rest to me. His money is our money, my money is my money."

The world gave me a greenflag. When boys were thinking that giving their instagram passwords are already great- he gave his bank account password.

We keep it a private relationship but not a secret one. My close friends know about it. My family have met him and they like him very much. There's a time that I came home and was surprised when Seb was there. My mom told me that she didn't ask me to come over so why did I show up? As if he's their son and not me.

I got invited on a television show. They were talking about a relationship because an actor's proposal to his non showbiz girlfriend became a really hot topic.

"What do I like in a girl? Well, I like.... someone like Asteria. She's one of a kind." Harry- an actor said.

"Too brave! She's our guest! Harry, count your luck." Grace reacted and teased him.

"Asteria... He said he likes you." Another host said, pushing the idea.

"What a perfect match." They teased us. The crowd was shouting and clapping. I looked at my man on the corner- he's showing his jealous face.

"Hey, don't do that. My man is overly confident but recently he's acting like a child- a jealous one." I said that shocked them all. I could see how shocked they were.

"Paparazzi don't do the job well! Asteria Suarez had a boyfriend and we never know?" A host reacted exaggeratedly.

I smiled as I held my microphone. "I never knew I'd announce it this way. I told a friend of mine that once I get a boyfriend I'll put our picture on a build board... Maybe next week?" I chuckled as I told a story.

After years, the world won't call me a pretty rich independent single woman. Just by having eye contact with Seb, we're already understanding each other. He smiled and nodded at me.

"See that man over there?" I asked. I saw the cameraman turn the camera in the direction that I'm pointing at.

When I saw on the big screen that he perfectly got my man's angle who's now standing proud wearing a dark blue suit, got his new haircut, a watch on his wrist, chains on his belt, and my tumbler on his right hand. He's also carrying my Channel shoulder bag, what a cute guy.

"That's my fiance." I simply said. He was there smiling at me proudly, not minding the camera and how people look at him.

"Well, we can't doubt it. Asteria is such a pretty lady. I won't question how he became a handsome and sexy man." He complimented my fiance and that made me chuckle. My fiance is a bit picky, he doesn't like compliments if it's not me.

"Who made the first move?"

"Of course, it's me. I chased her." I didn't expect that my Fiance would answer the question by himself.

"Sir... What do you do for a living?" Kiya asked, imitating a famous influencer.

A staff member gave my Fiance a microphone. "Loving her. Cooking for her. Making her happy..."

"Love!" I stopped him because I suddenly felt shy. They asked what he does for a living and he said something that implicitly says She's my life, of course everything I do revolves around her.

"What? Billion views? We're trending!" Grace said then loud music played. Sure, I'm on top searching once again.

I go home with my Fiance right after the show.
