SLS#4# Today's Cleopatra

Sweeter

Riley's POV

" She is inside." The nurse said and I nodded. I entered into the cabin and smiled widely seeing Mrs. Schwartz.

" I am back." I said and she turned to me. Then smiled widely.

" Where have you been?" She asked me.

" Went to LA for some work. " I said.

" Oh. I was waiting for you." She said.

" Sorry. I am late. But I got something for you." I said.

" What?" She asked me excitedly and I bring out a box of chocolates from my bag.

" This." I squealed and she chuckled.

" Why are you not getting excited looking at chocolate? " I asked her. She laughed.

" I am very very excited." She said patting my head.

" How are you doing?" I asked her.

" Absolutely fine." She said. "Now that I see you I am more than happy now." She said.

" Here." I gave her a chocolate and got another for myself. We started to have chocolate. We were talking about our plan.

" I have one more thing for you." I said.

" What? " She asked me.

" Wait." I said and bring out the file from my bag.

" What is this?" She asked.

" This is the weapon that we are going to use against Riley Schwartz." I said having my chocolate.

" Against your mom?" She asked me. I nodded.

" But what are these? " She asked me.

" Open it." I said. " You will find it out. "

" Alright." She opened it. She checked the papers and smirked.

" You can see. There's my parents wedding certificate, my birth certificate, their divorce papers everything are there. I have more evidences. I have strong proofs against her. You can do whatever you want to do with her now. Who cares about her anyways. I do not." I said.

" Really you don't? " She asked me and I stopped on my place and looked at her. I shook my head.

" Why should I care?" I asked her.

" Because she is your mother." She said.

" Does she deserve to be called a mother?" I asked her. She looked at me then sighed.

" Still a mother is a mother. I am feeling guilty for using you against your mother." She said.

" No. Don't. I am not fighting an war against my mother. I am trying to bring her to the right path. I am not using my tricks on her for hurting her I am trying to save her from getting destroyed." I said and she sighed.

" Still. It will bother me." She said.

" It shouldn't bother you when you know she is responsible for this state of mine today. I hate myself for being her daughter just for her. I want to show her that I haven't become like her. Even if I am not a good person but I haven't become the worst one like her." I said.

" You are a very good person. No wonder you are a wonderful woman." She said. I chuckled.

" Chocolate." I said and handed her one more.

I showed her my new sketches and the bridal collection : Wedding book. She appreciated every sketches and she liked Victoria's wedding gown the most because it was designed for a pregnant woman who was 5 months pregnant with her triplets. But it was designed in such a way that it can easily be fit on her even after her delivery.

" I like Stella's wedding gown as well." I said.

" Hmm.. Stella is your friend, right?" She asked me.

" Yes, know her from 6 years and she is amazing." I said.

" So, basically what do you guys do? " She asked me.

" You should know already." I said.

" I know but I want to hear it from you." She said.

" Well. We are trying to open a fashion house. If everything goes well then definitely later this year we will open it." I said. "Bella and Tasha are the investors there they are also founder of GS. I will work as a designer there, our Ann is the beauty consultant and makeup artist, Cindy works as the photographer and editor. Stella will be our brand ambassador and model for GS. I personally talked to Victoria about it as well. But she has got triplets so she needs some time to come back to the ramp but I am hipeful that she will overcome all the difficulties. She is amazing anyways." I said. She chuckled looking at me.

" What happened? " I asked her.

" Chocolate." She said.

" Yes, chocolate." I said confusedly.

" All over your face." She said.

" Oh!!! Who cares!!! Chocolate matters the most." I said and suddenly someone entered the cabin and I found Josh. He looked at us weirdly.

" Well!!" He crossed his arms over his chest. We gave him a guilty but toothy grin. Though I was gritting inside but I didn't want to react in front of his grandma. " This happens when we leave you guys alone?" He asked us. I pouted helplessly looking at Mrs. Schwartz. She chuckled. I suddenly found my files. I wiped my hands and quickly shoved them inside my bag.

" What happened?" Josh asked looking at me weirdly and I twisted my lips but didn't answer him.

He reached us. I ignored him. I was about to take my chocolate that I was having awhile back but he took it and started to have it. I looked at him totally shocked.

" Hey!!!" I said.

" What now?!" He asked me.

" It's mine. Give it back." I said.

" I already got it." He said. He got a call suddenly and walked out with my chocolate.

" My chocolate!!!" I whined. Mrs. Schwartz was laughing silently. I narrowed my eyes at her.

" Go, bring your chocolate back before Josh finishes it." She said.

" Yes. I will bring it back. How dare he take my chocolate!! " I ran out of the cabin and people was looking at me weirdly. Who cares!!! I reached his cabin and he was still having my chocolate while talking on the phone.

" Give my chocolate back." I shouted at him.

" I will call you back." he said as he turned to see me. He kept the phone on the table and smirked at me.

" Want it?" He asked me.

" Give it back." I said.

" Ok." He said and shoved the chocolate in his mouth. I looked at him with my mouth open wide. " If you want to have it now." He said. I glared at him.

" Urrrghh!!! " I clench my nails and gritted my teeth.

" Hmm... It's sweet." He said. "But... " He stopped and walked towards me.

" What?! " I asked him.

" I know something which is sweeter than this." He said.

" Then go have it." I said.

" Are you sure? " He asked talking a step closer.

" Do whatever you want. Why bother to ask me? " I asked him and turned to leave.

" Because it's you which is sweeter than anything else." He said and hold my hand. He pulled me closer and turned me towards him. Then pressed his lips on mine without letting me form a word.
