Paradise in My Eyes *DISCONTINUED*

Chapter 9

Maria's POV

I stepped into my office with smile on my face feeling confident, but the thing is, I WASN'T.

I walked into my office and sat down on my chair. I can't believe I said and I quote "I love you too Michael." I can't believe this and now I don't even know how I actually feel, hello people its called being into the moment. With his sweet, soft lips and rough hands.

A buzzing sound came from the intercom, "Ms. Santiago, you have a visitor. "Alright, send them in." I said into the intercom and waited. A few minutes later and my door finally opens, I say "Whoever is inside my office better have my paperwork or tell me someone is dying." "Is that anyway to talk to your mother?"

"Mom? What are you doing here, shouldn't you be in Rio or what other place you visit?" I said hugging my mom. "Well as it turns out I am visiting your father and I remembered I have a daughter, so I came to visit you and see how you are doing." she said. She has that face that she doesn't normally have, more like she's unhappy. "Mom can we please just talk some other time like at dinner?" I asked and she actually said yes, very surprising for my mother in the first place.

Few hours Later

I'm sitting on my couch and its finally dark out, and I realized I have nothing to do. Might as well just call Megan. "Hello?" "Hey Megan, listen what are you doing later tonight?" I asked her. "Am I dreaming or is The Maria Santiago wanting to go out.?" I start laughing "Yes I am asking you smart ass." I chuckle.

"Well I'm sorry hot shot but I have plans that involve family not partying until we have bad hangovers and don't remember who's house we are in." she said very fast paced. "Well just let me know ok, cause I am feeling different and who knows when I'll want to go out again." I smile and hang up. I take a sip a wine and exhale wondering what I'm doing with my life.

I put my phone down and look up at the ceiling, until I hear a ringing sound from my phone. I pick up the phone and look at the screen what surprised me was who was calling me, someone who I never want to see again.
