Linda's Music room..i know right?.I'm also jealous.
Bridget's POV.
It has been several day's since the ugly incident.I kept myself very busy to avoid the thought of a particular asshole but it still did not work.I was constantly thinking of him and that only made more angry.I thought of taking a sick leave but i thought about it and decided against it.I also avoided Linda because i knew she would try to talk me out of my decision.She was a hopeless romantic and yes,she doesn't know of my real feeling's for harris and i intend to keep it that way...He has also tried contacting me from bugging my phone all day,coming to my work place,showing up at my house femanding i speak with him but i just wouldn't give him the light of day.
Thankfully,it was saturday and instead of staying at home all day,i had somewhere else to be.Mrs Smith's driver arrived at precisely 12 to pick me up and on that note,that was how i ended up sitting on a couch in a massive living room.She has a mouth dropping mansion if i may add.
I stood up immediately i saw Mrs smith walk into the room with a handsome man dressed impeccably in a black suit as he walked by her side.He should be around his early 50's.
"Bridget,i'm sorry for keeping you waiting.I'm glad you could make it.Please have a seat" she offered with a small smil on her flawless face.
"Thank you and i'm glad to be here" I said as i took my seat.
"Forgive my manners.This is my husband Adam Smith".She introduced him and i stood up as we shook hand's briefly offering a small smile.
"Nice meeting you Mr Adam.You have a lovely home" I appreciated his home because it was truely amazing.
"Hahaha..Thank you my dear and please,make yourself at home..I'm afraid i have to be on my way,i have an important meeting to attend to" He gave his wife a kiss while i stood there awkwardly admiring the lovely couple,they weren't newly wed's but one could clearly tell they were still very much in love with each other..If only i could have that.
My thought was interrupted when she spoke up "Not to worry,i'll take care of this.Stay safe".They waved at each other as he left the house with a well built man escorting..His bodyguard i assumed.
We both had our seat's while she called for someone who showed up dressed as a maid.
"Samantha,please go tell Linda to come downstairs immediately will you?" The maid made her way upstairs before she disappeared out of sight.
"Yes madam."The maid by name Samantha gave a curt bow before leaving.
"How odd,you haven't been offered anything to eat or drink."She made an attempt to call for someone when i interrupted.
"No,I'm fine.Thank you" She eyed me suspiciously.
"You don't look well..Is something wrong my dear?"She asked with concern laced in her voice.
I lied."I'm fine honestly..I just.." Before i could finish my sentence,a beautiful girl showed up.She ran to her mother and kissed her on the cheek.She should be around 13 give or take.
"My love,this is the new tutor i told you about.She is very talented and i am positive you'll learn alot as well." She grinned widely at me.
"Your very beautiful Miss" she said sheepishly..I already love this girl.
"Thank you sweety,your also beautiful and please call me Bridget." I smiled warmly at her.The first real smile i've had all week.
"Ok.i'll leave you guyz to do what it is you do and i'll be in my room if you need me..Please dont hesistate to ask for anything you may need" She said as she stood up heading for the stairs.
"Before i forget,Linda,show Bridget to the music room will you?" She said before she finally disappeared out of sight.
"Yes Mom".I stood up as Linda led the way.Soon we were in a room that was bigger than my living room and kitchen put together.There were alot of instruments,Recording equippments,i could die in this room"
"Linda,you play the guitar correct?" She nodded as she made her way to where beautiful guitar's were mounted proudly.
"This is my favourite and i think i'm going to name it"She started striking the strings as she chatted non-challently.
"That's good.Have you come up with a name yet?" I asked with sudden interest.
"No i'm thinking but it'll be a great name i promise"She smiled at me and i just knew i would have a blast training this princess.
"That's ok..So back to your talent show..We dont have much time becauae summer will be over in a month's time and i want you to be ready.So to start off,i want to know what you plan on doing for the talent show". We sat down on a comfortable sofa while she told me of her plans.
"I want to sing and play my guitar but i'm not too sure" She said with saddness in her voice
"Why is that princess?" I asked concerned.
"Well because,i'm not the best singer in school and i'm not perfect with the guitar either and there's this girl Ashly,she thinks she's better than everyone and she likes making fun of me" I could tell she was sad because i could see her eyes tearing up.
"Princess,no one can make you sad without your permission.You know,my best friend's name is Linda and although is a little crazy,she is one heck of a fighter and that mean's she follow's her dream's and doesn't give up.I want the same from you Princess and i'm here to help you..Now wipe those tear's and lets get to work."
I taught her how to hold the guitar properly and how to remember some hard chords.I also listed down some thing's she could take to improve her voice quality.It is safe to say i started from scratch because i wanted her to succeed.Her mom would check in on us once in a while bringing snacks and drinks.
After about 3 hours of tutoring,i finally left the house but not without promising Linda a surprise package on our next lesson.I got home completely exhausted.I raided my fridge for something to drink while i listened to my answering machine for any important messege's.One was from Linda who sounded really urgent so i mentally reminded myself to check up on her before i deleted that message but the next voice i heard made my heart beat even faster.
Bridget,we need to talk.i know you must be mad right now but if you give me the chance,i'll explain everything.pls call me.
***
Bridget where are you.i just left your apartment and you weren't there.im so worried right now.please stop avoiding me.we need to talk..i really miss you.
***
Bridget you have every right to be angry with me but please i need to see you.im going crazy.please bridget.dont do this to me.I l**e you.Wait what,i couldn't hear his last words becausethey were muffled.Definitely my ears must be deceiving me because it sounded like he said he loved me but i knew better,i only heard that because my heart desperately wanted him to say that to me.
I was tired of crying and thinking endlessly of him so i decided to go to bed even if it was still too early.
