No calls, absolutely no calls from his side, I was so so devastated.
But I still had to make a video, my weekly updates were already delayed, so I decided to put a smile on my face and did everything. Lunch was served in my room since everyone knew my situation. I had never been broken-hearted before, well as they always say "There's always a first time for everything". But I couldn't see myself this miserable, so I decided to put on the brightest of my smiles and call him for some explanations.
The call was received on the first ring "hello" said a female voice "umm, hi is Nicolai around?" I asked "no, he isn't, if there is anything you would like to tell him, I would be obliged to pass it on, I am Samara, by the way, Nic's girlfriend," she said, making my heart stop, " No, not much, just say that Everly called," I said "wait, oh my god, are you the Everly Mills? she squealed "yes," I said "I am a big fan of yours, oh lord," she said " great," I said and hung up.
Damon paid me a visit, soon after, I had to tell him everything. He didn't give many reactions, he just asked me to take care and informed me that there's a gala next week, and it was compulsory for me to attend as I won the Best Influencer award. He also asked me to be his date to which I happily agreed. He was a dreamy guy, I couldn't resist.
At night I decided to have dinner outside with my family without any apparent reason.
On entering, the first thing I saw was Nicolai with a girl, which I assumed to be Samara, our table was opposite to theirs which meant that he wouldn't be able to see me but Samara would. Without much thought, I took my seat. The dinner was going peaceful, until a very excited Samara, presented herself in front of our table and said " OH MY GOD, I can't believe it is you" to which I nodded with a smile "HI, I m Samara, we spoke this morning" she said "Nice meeting you Samara" I said and there came Nicolai, standing beside her awkwardly " we should hang out sometime" she said, I nodded. Sensing the awkwardness Evelyn spoke "oh dear lord, I forgot to feed Jojo", I looked at her confusingly "Jojo?" asked Samara "our cat" she replied, I smiled and nodded feeling thankful.
