Only You by Medrin ADC (top 5 ebook reader .TXT) 📕

“Thank you Ms. Austen.” She said cheerfully

“You’re welcome. Have fun.” I said. I gave her a quick hugged.

Another one approached me. He came from the Loubourgh Cuz magazine, a well-known magazine because of its taste in lifestyle and how well they featured an artist.

“Ms. Austen what particularly of theme are you engaged?” he questioned

 “Well to be honest, everything depends on my mood and plans.” I said

“Critics told most of your artworks are gloomy. Would you deny it? ” he asked

“No I won’t deny it. In fact it was an insight of my past.” I told him

“Ms. Austen, are you in a relationship?” he questioned with curiosity

I chuckled before I answered. “No I’m single and happy.” I said

He thanked me for the interview and leaved. That was the funniest question I answered for today. He was asking about my relationship. Well I was 6 years single since my last relationship.

When the interviews were over I looked around and I went to my favorite artwork. I called this as the “Sunset” it was memorable for me. Memories were coming back, this was the first time I saw the sunset in Seattle and it was stunning. I was interrupted when a cold shiver passed into my spine I felt someone was staring at me. This feeling I felt this before. He went nearer to my place now this person was standing beside me.

“I love this painting.” A manly voice said which I could recognized

“Me too I remember something when I stare at.” I said anxiously

When I gazed him I was surprised it was Ted. He grinned at me which I became more uneasy. Why is he here? What does he wanted?

“Anne.” He said

“Ted” as I replied.

“Anne.” He said

“Ted” as I replied.  I was shocked that he was here.

“Why are you here? And don’t called me with that name” I snapped.

“Sorry. What am I supposed to do here? “ He smirked

“I mean are you also like the others want to be amazed or something?” I said. Irritation filled our conversation. He became more handsome the last time I saw him 6 years ago. But he didn’t change at all he was still the same the Ted I know. All the pains are coming back and somehow love.

“How rude…” He smirked

He’s smirking before I got furious I thought I should leave him. “Very well I hope you enjoy your staying here. Please excuse me.” I said and wore my fake smile. I turned my heels and walked away. Geez! It’s supposed to be a good show not like this. Anyway while I was walking someone called me a familiar voice that I could recognized, I turned around it was my very own friend Patrick.

“Ely!” he shouted. All heads turned around.

“Sorry!” I said. I returned my attention to the man who was running through me.

“Trick…” I giggled. He gave me a bear hugged which I was happy to take it. Patrick James Brooke my best friend since college. His features were a brunette with smoky gray eyes, well- built body and 6 ft. tall I guessed. He was known for his dazzling smile that captured women’s heart as they said and all in all he was handsome. He was popular in college not only he was attractive but also he was bright. We both graduated with honors. Our first encountered was lunch when I accidentally bumped him. All the food in the tray went to his shirt.

“You okay?” he asked seriously

“You’re kidding right? I was the one who hit you and mess out. Then you’re going to ask me if I’m okay?” I enraged. Was he alright how could he be so kind liked that? Mostly in US when you hit something you will received a punch from someone.

“It’s just only a shirt and besides your food is more important than my shirt.” He smirked

I’m fascinated. “Sorry… I mess out, and how rude I am...” I said embarrassed.

He chuckled “It’s alright! How about I treat you lunch since you don’t have?” he offered

I nod and smiled at him. He giggled while eating he asked my name which I answered kindly. “Ross Evelyn Austen, how about you?” I asked then continued chewing

“Me… Patrick James Brooke just called me Patrick” he said

“No. I would rather call you Trick or Patrick Star” I joked

“Really ha….Well I should call you Ely? Since Ross or Evelyn and it sounds old.” He teased

“Deal…” I said

We both chuckled and finished our lunch.  We were both surprised when we found out we were in one course. How unpredictable. He was the only person I could trust in college because I was afraid of being mess out and he knows that. Now he’s back he became more handsome than I expected.

 “How are you Ely? You seems more beautiful last time I saw you.” He said

“I’m good Trick. How about you seemed…” I examined him. “Change”

We both laughed. Uneasiness came through me blazing eyes staring at us. I suspected that it was him but it seems I’m assuming but only one thing to find out. I turned around my doubts were correct it was him. His eyes were icy like ice and he seemed furious. Why was he envious? I returned my attention to Patrick the man I trusted a lot.

“No I don’t because I’m afraid you will beat out of the shit in me…” He teased

“You remembered ha.” I laughed

I remembered when he was saying his farewell before going to the airport. “Don’t ever change or else….” I wept

“You will beat the shit out of me. I won’t change.” He mocked

“Damn you… I’m crying already. I’m going to miss you a lot Trick.” I said

“I know same as you. I promise I will come back to see you again the only problem is I don’t know when?” he joked

We both laughed. Before he left he whispered something in my ear which I could not understood because of the honk.

“Farewell Trick…” I gave him my last hug before he leaves.

“No Ely. It won’t be a farewell.” He kissed my cheeks and left.

He gave me another hugged. It seems he really missed me so as I. He looked at me with his serious eyes.

“You okay?” he asked

“Yeah I’m fine. You know just nervous.” I joked

“Come let’s go out since you’re in here in hours.” He said

I nod at him. He hold my hands and we walked through the exit.

We went to the park nearby and sat in a bench. I could feel the rays of the sun in my skin, laughter’s of the children and birds chirping merrily a view of a happy spring. I placed my head in his shoulders and heard him chuckled.

“I missed this…” I started

“You are quit nervous. Just breath Ely everything will be fine.” He assured

He knows me well. When I’m doing this it means I would like myself to calm and breath. Self- confidence lacks to my personality as he said before which I was convinced.

He stood up and run. Where was he going? I waited and waited for minutes until he came back. He bought two chocolate ice creams. He gave me one and gestured his hands to the ice cream man. I plant a kiss in his cheek for my appreciation. We ate our ice creams quietly when our eyes locked we just burst into laughter. When we finished he asked me to watch a movie after that we would go to carnival until we were both satisfied.

As we walked I overheard people talking about us.

“Look at them is it the woman was Evelyn Austen?” said the woman

“Yes while the man with her was Patrick Brook the famous model.” Said the other woman

“What’s their relationship?” asked the first

“I don’t know…” answered by the second

Patrick squeezed my hands asking me to ignore it.

“I don’t know you entered modeling?” I asked

“So rude you didn’t know your best friend’s work?” he snapped. He was serious.

“Sorry…” I whispered

He began to laugh. Damn him! I stepped his foot, he groaned of pain.

“You deserve it.” I said

He came back from laughing. I couldn’t stop myself from laughing also. I embraced him which he was bemused.

“I forgive you.” He whispered

We were really close. Back in, college students thought we were in a relationship even grandma and Martin thought Trick was my boyfriend but I clarified to them.

When we felt our stomach sang we went to a restaurant nearby in the carnival. People were looking at us because of our sweetness. A waitress accompanied us to our table. We sat in different direction so I was facing him then the waitress came back together with the menu list. She handed us, after over looking at she asked us. I think the waitress likes Trick and she wanted to get his attention. Trick was looking at the menu list and he gazed at her and smiled.

“You, Ely what would you like?” Trick asked

“Wait… I would like some plain lasagna with matching garlic bread, and umm….” I said

He stared at me and smirked. “Add some 7 kinds of cheese pizza chocolate mousse and 2 bottles of soda. That’s all thank you.” He smiled at the waitress. The waitress took the menu list and she grinned like an idiot teenager. I glared at her and she went off. Trick gave a looked asking me for an explanation.

“What?” I snapped

“Nothing.” He smirked

“Come on Trick what is it? You’re not going to smirk if nothing amazes you.” I said cruelly

“You caught me. Is my best friend jealous? Is she in love with me?” he mocked

Am I jealous? Am I in love with my best friend? No it couldn’t be he was my friend he knows that why would he asked that. Yes we were close to each other but being in love it’s a doubt. I stared at him with blank expression and he got alarmed. He knows he said something sensitive. When we were in college I told him that I’m afraid to fall in love again with someone deeply after what happened to Ted and me.

He sat beside me and embraced me with his strong arms. “Hey Ely listened, don’t think of those questions I’m just joking. I’m sorry if I offended you.” He said softly

I stared at him and nod assuring him I’m fine. “I’m sorry did I worried you?” I
