"What is it?" I asked, curious about what he had to say.
"Why did you decide to start working?" he asked.
I didn't want to start going back and forth, so I just told him everything that happened between Amanda and me.
"Please, you are going to stop that work. I don't even know what to spend my money on, and the love of my life is here stressing herself just to earn money," He said proudly.
"I don't want to have to rely on you, before I sort out my bills, plus it is not like you are my husband or anything," I said while rolling my eyes.
"As if you are not the one stopping us from getting married," he murmured.
I didn't even know what to tell him again, so I just shook my head.
"But baby, on a serious note, it's not like I'm against you working, but I feel like it's going to be very stressful for you to combine your school and then work. I feel it might affect your grades, so please stop the job and I'll handle the rest." He said with a serious look on his face
"I appreciate what you just said, but I will keep working for now, then if I feel I can't handle it, I will quit the job."
He didn't reply to what I told him, so I left it at that. We spoke for a while, then I asked him if he would be able to drop me off at school. He accepted, so we quickly dressed up and headed out.
When we got to the school, before I got out of the car, he asked me if I would like to accompany him to a party that night. I told him I was going to think about it. We said our goodbyes, then I left for my lectures.
After I was done with my lectures, I went to the cafe where I was working, and met with the manager. I told him that I am better now and I would resume the following week.
He agreed, then I left the cafe and headed back to my dorm. When I entered my room, I quickly freshened up, then I lay on my bed and reminisced about my day. I then decided that since I said I was going to give Matheo a chance, I'd accompany him to the party.
Later that day, I called Matheo on the phone and told him I'd accompany him to the party. He was overjoyed by what I told him, and then he told me he'd come to pick me up by 8 pm.
After the call ended, I realized I didn't even ask him what the theme of the party was, and I'm now stuck with figuring out what I was going to wear to the party.
I called Rita on the phone to see if I'd be able to get some inspo from her. After some back and forth, we finally settled for a High-collared, draped black top paired with a structured leather skirt that has an asymmetrical hem.
After we settled to dress, I decided to talk with her about what happened between me, Matheo and. I told that I've decided to give him a chance, but I haven't told him yet, because I haven't found an opportunity to tell him.
She told me I did well by accepting to giving him a chance, and that everyone could see how deeply in love he was with me. Then I told her I hope I don't regret it because he has done things in the past that shattered my trust in him.
She said, "You have not yet told me what he did to you, so I can't really say much, but from the ones I've seen, I believe you can trust him. Ava, this guy acts completely different around you. He becomes a better version of himself when he is around you."
Then I told her that I would tell her when I've forgiven him completely and move past it. We spoke for a while before I ended the call.
At around 6 pm, I decided to prepare, so I wouldn't keep him waiting. Then I freshened up again, did my makeup up and then dressed up.
At exactly 8:00 pm, I heard a knock on my door, and I knew it was Matheo, and I was already done dressing up. So I quickly opened the door.
"Omg!! Baby…you look so beautiful!" He said with a wide grin on his face
I immediately blushed, then told him, "Thank you, you look so good too."
After we exchanged other pleasantries, I closed the door of my room, and then we headed out. We got to his car, and he opened the door for me as usual.
We finally arrived at the party, and what happened at the party caused a stir in our relationship.
