Currently I'm glaring at the old telephone in front of me , I've been staring at it for the past half an hour. It's 3 pm and I am in the shop alone working, but today there is only few people who passed by so it's empty .

Do it maddy , call him .

No wait . What if something bad happens ? what if they treat us like shit ? What if they made Ameila feel bad about herself ? Dominic looked at her with anger in his eyes , how is he gonna stand her when she's living under the same roof as him ?

You'll never know if you don't try , that's what life is about , take the chance .

But there is alot of ' what ifs' runing though my brain .

Just do it .. seriously , don't think about it again , you've been thinking for the past 11 days . You can't keep Ameila from the world forever .

Ughh I'm  literally talking with myself right now .. is that even normal?

Groaning, I picked the old telephone and dialed Rick's number from the card the mom gave me .

I took a deep breath to calm myself down . Then after few seconds he answered.

" Hello , this is Rickard hills " he said the moment he answered.

"Umm yeah I know,  it's me madeline collins , Ameila's mother , I cal-"

"Ohhh hey princess ! How are you ? I'm really glad you call " he said cutting  me off .

" can we like  .. meet or something,  because I wanna ask you something qustions about that deal "

"Are you asking me on a date?! Woohoo hell yeah "

Well that shocked me , " no no nononono ! That's not what I meant , I was just saying - " then I stoped when I noticed that he was laughing really hard .

" what are you laughing at ? " I asked .

" calm down women, I was just kidding , I wanted to see your reaction , and for the record I have a girlfriend. ... Well kind of "

" kind of ? Blah anyways your romantic life is non of my business so back to the deal , we have to meet but not in the village , I really don't want any rumours spreading around here so I am gonna take the bus to the city and you can meet me at the bus station at 7 pm okay ? "

" great ! Sounds like a plan " he said .

" Umm okay bye " I said as I hung up on him .

*********************
Getting out of the bus , I looked around searching for one particular face . But he'd nowhere in sight.
I jumped when someone placed I hand on my shoulder,  I quickly turned around , ready to punch whoever touched me .

"Wohoo calm down women!  It's just me " Rickard said with a huge smile on his face .

"You scared me ! "

Ignoring my comment Rick started walking toward a fancy car , Damn ! This car is like the ones you see in movies .

The ride was silent until I said " so ... where are you taking me ? "

" definitely not a fancy place .. your outfit is not appropriate for that . So I'll take you to a restaurant near the beach, it's usually empty so yeah "

"Hey ! What do you mean? My outfit is okay   ... you know what?whatever"

After that the ride returned its silence
Again  .

13 mins later we were inside the restaurant,  and in fact it looked fancy but I had to keep the comment to myself,  I don't want him to know that I barely go out .

"So maddy did you agree to the deal ?" He said while shoving a spoon full oh god-knows-what in his mouth,  I honestly don't know what are we eating and I'm pretty sure that the menu wasn't written in English,  but hey .. this tastes really good and plus , I am starving .

" oh yeah " I said with a mouth full of food , I probably look like a fish right now but who cares ?!  I don't .

"Well yes I will agree but I have some questions first " I continued after I emptied my mouth  .

"Okay , shoot "

"Huh ?" I asked confused .

He looked at me weirdly for few seconds and then he smiled " I meant go ahead and ask "

"Oh okay , so who's gonna live with us in the house. I'm not agreeing to this if it's just Dominic, I won't like to be alone with him ."

"First , your not alone you have Ameila with you . And secondly , Mr and Mrs Vandermir lives in the mansion as well , you and your daughter are gonna share the 2nd floor with Dominic , while Mrs and Mr Vandermir are gonna be down stairs,  don't worry! the mansion is huge " Rickard said .

I stayed quite , because I honestly don't know what to say.

I'm sacred that I'll make the wrong decision,  but I've been thinking about it for a long time now , so I quickly agreed before I change my mind .

I just made a decision that will change my life .
