Be Mine (Will Be Continued)

AVA

I picked up the dress which was lying on my bed. A sweet pink floral dress which ends right under my knees. Picking up the dress, I put it in front of me and checked out myself from head to toe. It's beautiful. My father bought me this dress on my 18th birthday. The dress is very simple and my type. I put the dress on my bed again. This is for the party next week. Aunt Ellie and her husband is going to host the party. It's about their business.

I've moved to California right after my 18th birthday. So it's been 2 years. They hold so many parties in a year if I say. It's all about their business. All I know is, my uncle is a very rich businessman. There is no shortage of them.

I went downstairs after getting ready for my classes. Elizabeth was eating her breakfast but her eyes were still stick to her phone. Aunt Ellie was talking to someone on her phone. Probably inviting people for the party. I went inside the kitchen to make my breakfast. Maria, the maid always makes breakfast for everyone except for me. Actually I told her not to make breakfast for me. In this house, if I can share anything with someone, it's Maria. She is like my friend.

When I entered the kitchen, maria gave me a smile. A smiled back at her.

After having my breakfast, I looked at aunt Ellie who was texting someone now. Elizabeth was long gone after having breakfast. Giving a last look at aunt Ellie, I left for my classes. This is what happens everyday. They ignore me. As if I don't exist.

It's not like they torture me or something. It's like I'm invisible in the house. I literally walk around the house in front of them but they don't care to notice me. It's been 2 years since I'm here. But nobody asks me how I am in this house, except for Maria. I talk to her about everything. Whatever happens to me everyday, I say everything to her. We two eat dinner together and talk a lot. She also shares everything with me. She is the only maid for kitchen. But I sometimes help with doing her work. It's a good way to pass the time, working and talking. I feel good.

I can't wait for the party next week. I've been attending the only parties that they hold in this house since I'm here. I don't attend other parties which are held in big restaurants or somewhere else. As I said, they never stopped me from doing anything. But they just ignore me. They don't care if I'm sick or not. I remember one day. It was raining when I was coming back from my classes. I don't have a car. My aunt and her husband have cars but they never asked me to use it if I need. It's not like I want to use it anyways.. I got all wet by rain because I always walk home from my classes. That night, I fell so sick. I was lying down on my bed the whole time. My head was bursting in pain. I couldn't even close my eyes because of the pain. I didn't have dinner either. But no one in the house cared to check me out. Except for Maria. She helped me take medicines and massaged my head a little bit for the pain to ease. .

The parties they hold in house are the only parties that I attend. The reason is that I don't go out with my friends from my class. I don't have close friends just a few friends but we don't talk that much. So this business parties are the only ones I attend to refresh my mind. It's very nice to see so many people together.

The other reason for attending the party is HIM. The CEO of JEON company. Although he doesn't come to all parties but the parties that my uncle hold in house is kind of personal business party between them and a few companies. JEON company is one of them.

I saw him 2 years ago. I remember the day.

"Ava can you please wear something nice for tonight?" Aunt Ellie talked to me after a very long time. That was 2 months after I moved to California.
"Are we going anywhere?" I asked with a smile
"No actually we have a party. You don't have to join of you don't want. But if you want to, then please wear something good okay. Not your dirty cheap clothes please. And if you don't have clothes then ask Elizabeth to give one of her clothes. She has so many old clothes anyways."
Saying this she left, not even waiting for my answer..
Cheap clothes? Dirty clothes? Those are the clothes my father bought me with his money. Every single cloth that my father bought me holds a great meaning for me. They might be cheap but the my were still precious.

I thought I won't attend the party. But then again,I never attended any party when I was in Australia. I wanted to see what the rich people parties look like. I wore one of my favorite dresses for the party. Even if they are cheap,I would never want to wear Elizabeth's dress no matter how expensive they were. Putting on natural makeup , I went downstairs. The house looked beautiful. The big chandelier made the house look more gorgeous. At the corner, aunt Ellie was talking to some of her friends, more like showing off their necklace and expensive dresses and all. At the other corner, I saw uncle talking to some men, they all were wearing expensive suits. I couldn't see their faces properly.

Suddenly my eyes moved to the annoying noise of Elizabeth. She was wearing dark red dress which was hugging her body so tightly, revealing her every curves and showing more of her breasts. She ran towards where uncle was talking to those men. She hugged her dad tightly. They looked so happy. I saw uncle introducing her to those men. She was shaking her hands with them. That's the time when my eyes fell on the man. He was wearing royal blue suit. His beautiful brown eyes,brown hair,tall figure, small smile on his face, his royal blue outfit,everything about him screams power. Everything about him screams beauty. He was talking to my uncle. His lips were moving so beautifully. He looked drop dead gorgeous. I couldn't take my eyes away.

Suddenly a little jerk snapped me out of my dreams.
"Ava! What are you looking at ? Go and help Maria serve the drinks." Aunt Ellie said before I could say anything. I sighed and went towards the kitchen.

"Let me help you Maria."

"No no you don't have to. I can do that." Maria said,sending me a nervous smile.

"It's okay Maria. I'm getting bored anyways. Don't worry it's nice serving drinks to people." I said taking a tray full of drinks in the glasses and walked towards where all ladies were talking.

I served them drinks. But instead of thanking me,they all were giving me weird looks, as if I am am alien. Ignoring them, I went to where all men were standing.

I served them drinks too. My heart skipped a bit when I held the tray for that man to take his drink. He, with a small smile took the drink and started talking about business again. I didn't know since how long I was standing there until Elizabeth's annoying voice snapped me out.

" Are you gonna stand here all day or go into the kitchen and bring us snacks?" She said with disgusting look on her face, as if my existence disgusted her.
All men stopped talking and looked at me. Including the man that caught my eyes earlier.
My cheeks turned red with embarrassment. I left the place as soon as I could and ran towards the kitchen. But not before hearing the word I wanted to hear. The name I wanted to know.

I smiled at the memory. Since then,I always attended the parties that my uncle held in house. He sometimes used to come and stayed for few minutes. Those few minutes were enough for me. I served drink and he, as always used to give a thankful smile and take the drink from the tray before joining their business talk again. He never seemed to notice me. But it's fine. As long as I could see him from a far,it's fine with me.

I can't wait for the party!!
