Filthy Rich by Atarah Yvaine (ereader ebook TXT) 📕

"He entered the room last night using the window. He startled me. I was shrieking and was so loud. We are almost shouting in front of you last night and you are there sleeping like a log." I said while rolling my eyes.

"Gosh!!! so he did see me sleeping? How's my hair? I bet is it's like a witch hair and please don't tell me I'm drooling last night. OH my gosh my reputation!" she's overreacting and she's cute.

"I should've stayed till the morning. I want to meet the other members of Cavelli's Golden Trio too. I only seen Deus and he is the grumpiest handsome man on earth I am looking forward in meeting the two." her face turned into a scowl remembering her first encounter with Deus.

"Tres is here to get me in the first place." I continued and she stop, look at me and giggle.

"Oh, My G!!! I knew it. Deus will never let you go. I can see in his eyes how he cared for you and how he really wants you. I am expecting this already. I am not really that serious in keeping you here. I just want to test him if he really wants you then he will search the world to find you and he did. Oh, I want a man like him too. " She is still giggling and is hitting me on my shoulders. She is even teasing me by trying to tickle me.

"Ouch stop that." I keep on stopping her hand from hitting me.

"When are we leaving? Will Deus personally go here to get you? Or will he send us a helicopter or a big ship?" she said while daydreaming.

"Tres will bring us home three days from now." I said ruining her fantasy.

"Oww, I thought he misses you that much that he is willing to cross the ocean for you. I'm a bit disappointed though. “She pouted.

"Your overthinking things. He is a busy person and he spending a lot of money and time to look for me is enough. And besides it's an additional burden for him to personally go here. He will miss a lot of work and meetings that might cause a loss of lot amount of money. I am causing him too much trouble. After this I'll behave" I said feeling remorse with what I did.

"No! Don't tell me you will let him control you just like that. You have a life of your own and he needs to understand that. Everything is not about him all the time." she said seriously.

"Yeah, you know I was really thinking about that. I need to carve my own path. I don't wanna be define just by being his girlfriend. His success is his and I need to make myself successful on my own." I said while picking pebbles and throwing it as far as I can.

The calm sea and life realizations.

"I understand you but don't pressure yourself too much. Just do what you love and everything will follow. Just be you because you are already a treasure with no efforts exerted at all."

"You too." I complimented her back cause it's true. Everyone is a treasure.

After we stayed in the shore for almost an hour we planned to prepared for tonight. We are going to camp outside and wait for sunrise. We go to the mansion's storage room in the attic and get the things we needed.

The huge tent, the bed bags and the lamps.

"We need some pillows and warm blankets too." Ali don't want to forget anything. She is starting to pack everything we need.

"Yes, we might need insect repellant lotion. Food and drinks and some flashlight." I reminded her.

We pack some chips and a basket of fruits. A bottle of water and some vitamins.

It's around three in the afternoon when we finally got everything ready. We eat our late lunch and afterwards sit in the living room trying to go on the list of movies. We can't just simply choose. Actually, when we are together, we can't easily decide things. We keep on asking each other of what we personally want and we always ended up forcing each other to choose for the both us that will result to some random pick that we will either regret or enjoy.

"Maybe I'll bring my laptop with us later so we can watch some movie or Japanese anime when we get bored." Ali suggested and I nod.

"That's a good idea. Let's enjoy our last days here. I can already hear our think accounting books greeting us welcome from the other side of the ocean." her face becomes distorted with what I said.

"Ahhhhhh, stop it!" she throws a pillow towards me and covered her ears.

"Accountingggggggg" I annoy her more and she is shooting daggers at my direction.

"I hate it! Know what? Let's just skip college. I don't want to go back to school anymore" she start whining and acted like crying. She's even wiping her fake tears off her frowning face.

"Sure, we can skip college but we can't skip life. One way or another we will face difficulties and we can't turn our back anymore. School is a training ground to real life you know. We need to enjoy the privilege of going to school because a lot of unfortunate kids are out there dreaming to continue college but sadly, they can't. Before, I am one of them but God is so good that He gave me an opportunity. I'm lucky" I said and she stayed silent.

"I wish I have the same mindset. Sometimes I know I am feeling so entitled and I always wanna thank you for reminding me to bring back my feet on the ground. You're such a blessing to me." she come close to me and pulled me for a tight hug.
