When The Rain Falls - Book 1 by N, Y. (feel good books .TXT) 📕

me. I don’t think they’ll do that since, i’m dressed up for once.

 

FARELLE wanted me to be on the front cover of the magazine, introducing me as a new writer on their team. Better than a spread.

 

 

Im known as the starstruck girl among them, it’s really a big deal.

 

I’ve officially been thinking about many things that I have to do and deal with.

 

Like going back to Rosewood and seeing my dad’s grave for the first time, call back to London so I can chat with Theodore and Carla.

 

 

 

"I really think my life’s coming together, I’m on my own and I think I've got everything on track. Except for my relationship with Jacob. I haven’t spoken to him in a few weeks, but I think it’ll be okay. He'll alone without me, I trust him to find use of the time. But luckily his birthday is coming up and i’m planning the biggest, well, smallest party for his birthday this April, when we met it was September and i had quit the 2nd year and 1st semester of college, and my life’s been a disaster since, but it’s getting better. I saw my mom a week ago and I spoke with Jacob, he still cares deeply about my well being. Well, I gotta go and see ya next time" -@SummerElleW_86

 

 

 

 I had dressed up in my best dress, well actually, the one I wore in Paris. It meant a lot and it was special.

 

Me and a few friends arranged a place nearby in New York, where Jacob is gonna meet up with me. And then we're gonna head to the party, there’s gonna be a big surprise for him and i think he’ll really be happy for once since we came to New York.

 

 

I met up with him at the apartment, he dressed up nice.

 

He walks out the entrance door and finds me on the sidewalk, in front of a taxi. He smiles.

 

 

"So how’s my boyfriend doing? Has he gotten in trouble or has broken a promise?"

 

He laughs and says back. "No I haven’t done anything to upset my girlfriend, i’ll stay loyal to her forever, no matter what."

 

 

He walk towards me and kisses me, then we both get into the cab. Eddy, the taxi driver takes us on our way to the party/.

 

"Hello Jacob, and his girlfriend, Elle. One of my loyal taxi riders is here again."

 

 

I say in a demanding but calmly voice. "Let’s go Eddy."

 

He drives off towards and then after a while, we were stuck in a little traffic.

 

I told Jacob about how my surprise was really gonna shock him and I hope he doesn’t get mad about the time, the distance, and flight I had to paid for this gift.

 

And I might say, he’ll be crying for sure when he see’s it.

 

Eddy gets us out of traffic pretty easily and we were on our way again.

 

When we reached the destination, I couldn't hold in my excitement, I was practically ringing Jacob's arms with my strength as we entered the set up.

 

 

Everyone was in their positions and ready to come out and yell happy birthday.

 

I turned on the lights.

 

 

"Happy Birthday Jacob!!!"

 

Everyone shouts and even I do too.

 

He smiles in surprise and thanks everyone once we got around the cake. Everyone passes out pieces, after getting myself I slice, I lead him towards a small area across from his birthday party.

 

 

"Okay Jacob, I know it’s been a while since I listened to anything you’ve had to say. Especially since I came to London, but i’ve got a surprise for you. I was thinking about it back in Paris where we stayed, and she’s right behind that staricase, go and see it." I say.

 

 

He walks slowly rounding the corner, I see him freeze then cover his mouth in excitement.

 

I squal in agreement behind.

 

 

I hurry him up to say something, but he gets down on his knees.

 

My smile begins to drop as I watch him closely.

 

I think he’s overwhelmed with the emotions, It's probably running through his head like crazy.

 

And his big surprise was his mother.

 

 

He gets up after realizing what he was doing, and he hugs his mom.

 

I see them squeeze each other tightly as my smile returns.

 

"I found her all the way down in Cuba, with a few friends. She didn’t want you to find her till you were safe and I found her easily."

 

I smiled as I watch their gaze reunite.

 

 

Today he had officially turned 19.

 

And he got the best present he could've asked for.

 

 

In surprise, the next day, I came across MaryBella from last year.

 

We met up on the New York streets and she took us out for ice cream. We went all round town with Lauren, my boss who met up with us and Marybella by my side.

 

 

We shopped until, none of us could climbe another flight of stairs to get to the next level. For one moment in a mall, me and MaryBella caught two guys staring at Rikki who had also joined us.

 

 

And Lauren, despite the fact that she is older then me , wanted to see what was up.

 

The guys looked like they were in their twenties. More specifically, 20 or 22.

 

But Rikki didn’t mind, she couldn't even look up to see them, she had her nose pointed down to her phone.

 

 

I could tell, the brown haired boy was looking straight at Rikki, and she didn’t notice till now.

 

And of course no guy would dare come up and ask me out, because I knew Jacob would come in a blink of a flash.

 

Chapter Twelve: Party'

 

"I love the end of spring, it’s when summer is on the brink and it gets warmer, I haven’t had the time to think about what my future with writing could be, but i’m thinking of going back to College and completing my degree. Even though i’m retaking courses at the University of New York City. I decided , that it'd be best for me to get my degree, so I can have a bright future ahead of me. Just think of me, working with more magazine companies and making tons of money. But other than that me and Jacob have been down in Brooklyn for a while, spending time together. iIm taking it one step at a time, every day, see ya next time.” - @SummerElleW_86

 

 

I’m planning to visit mom in Paris this summer, we’ve been talking on the phone and she invited before, so why not take it?

 

In about a few weeks, I had packed my things to go to Paris. And I was going with Jacob, he decided he wanted to come along and meet my mom for the first time.

 

Given that I breifly met his, he wanted to meet mine.

 

 

It was sort of embarrassing, to think and to tell my mom that I had a boyfriend. Mainly because I never really did, even before. 

 

But it’s worth the chance, we're leaving tomorrow morning and everything is almost set for my trip back. Maybe it'll be possible to meet Duboni again, since it’s almost summer and she vacations in Paris from June through September.

 

 

Being in Paris once again, will be a dream. Mom has a surprise for me when I get there, she said it would be the two things I haven’t seen in a while.

 

I didn't know what it was, but Iwas excited for going back to Paris.

 

 

 

Me and Jacob left early in the morning for our flight, it took hours before we could get on the plane, but it was worth the wait.

 

 

We got on the plane and it was lift off from then on.

 

 

I look out the window, the view from New York above was extravagant. And the skyscrapers looked like tiny buildings.

 

 

We arrived late in the afternoon and drove up to the Mansion.

 

It was under my name, I couldn't forget.

 

 

Mom was staying at a nearby hotel from the Mansion, she told me about her time and fun there, while I was back in New York the last time we met.

 

When we got to the Mansion, I introduced Jacob.

 

 

"Mom i’d like you to meet Jacob, my boyfriend."

 

She smiles eagerly, then replies.

 

"It's nice to meet you, Jacob. I never knew you had it in ya to date Elle, she can be such a meanie sometimes."

 

"I'm not a meanie!" I say back to her.

 

Jacob laughs.

 

I smile eagerly to my mom.

 

"Well i’m so honored to meet you, how long have you and Elle been together?" she asks.

 

 

"We’ve been together for 8 months now, and were going on strong."

 

He holds my hand and looks over to me.

 

I melt and blush, as he smiles at me.

 

 

When he answers my mom’s questions, I can't help but smile.

 

Jacob and I, both follow my mom into the living room, where Jacob grabs our bags and takes them up to our rooms.

 

 

I sit down with mom on the couch, sighing in relief.

 

"So mom, how’s it been since you came back, did you have fun?" I ask.

 

She smiles at me.

 

"Yes I did, when I came to Paris the time you left for New York, I noticed you had the place  under your name. So now, you legally own it."

 

I cringe and turn away.

 

"I was planning to stay here until I could go to New York again, and here we are."

 

She continues.

 

"Do you miss this place, because I miss it a lot. It's where you grew up the last year before we moved to Rosewood. But Iimiss rosewood the most, but not as much as Paris."

 

She sighs then continues again.

 

"Do you remember, that cherry tree in late April? And that accident that happened. What did we call it?"

 

"Paris Blossom Incident," i answer,

 

We both laugh at the memory.

 

 

"Remember when we went to the park and the cherry tree blew blossoms all over the ground, and we got fined with a warning for playing in the streets and throwing blossoms around like it was the forth of July!" she said.

 

We both laughed out loud, loud enough for anyone upstairs to hear. 

 

 

"Yeah, I remember that, I was so scared that I had begun to cry and he waved our fee so that I could be happy!"

 

We bothbreifly laugh again. It was the first time in years that I heard my mom laugh alongside me, she had a laugh that made everyone around her feel welcome.

 

 

Her laugh changes the way you feel about her, she has a laugh that you're willing to die for.

 

"What are you guys looking at?"

 

 

We look up at Jacob, as he comes in to the living room.

 

"Were looking at pictures of my mom , from when we first came to Paris," I reply.

 

 

"Oh! and look the picture I took in front of that cafe." I mentioned.

 

I point to a picture of a cafe , it was near but not far from the Eiffel Tower. We both smile and laugh.

 

Jacob joins in and asked me about a picture in the album.

 

 

"What’s that one, right there?"

 

I look at it, i’ve never seen the picture, but something just grabs me about it.

 

 

"Mom what’s this picture here? I don’t remember this one?" I  say.

 

She looks over to the picture and says.

 

"That was a picture taken years ago way before we moved here, when me and your dad was in Paris for one week so that um, I could promote my fashion line. That happened before I got my promotion. They wanted me to visit Paris, so that I could see what life I would be living, if
