EP 1; Placing the coffee mug on the glass table, "you know what darling, girls like you who always try to run away from dating and relationships, always end up falling in love at the end." 

Letting out a brittle laughter, "grandma I think you're under the influence of fairy tales. Or did you watch Cinderella cartoons before coming?" 

"Huh? I can't even remember the last time I watched fairy tales movie." 

"Then why are you talking bout dating and relationships? Because I know am not interested in them" 

Raising her eyebrows, granny Mathilda burst into laughter.

Scowling her face, "grandma what's funny? I didn't say something funny" 

Slightly pinching and pulling bianca's cheeks, granny Mathilda chuckled, "yes dear, you just said something funny." 

Frowning confusedly, "how?" 

Taking a deep breath, "first of all, let me tell you something." She sat up properly and faced her. "Do you know that old men and women of my age  still goes into relationship?" 

Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, Bianca threw her hands in her mouth and gasped. "Ahh, you gat to be kidding me grandma" 

Nodding her head, "no darling, am not kidding, am talking legit." 

"But why do they have to go into a relationship when they're old and weak?" Shrugging her shoulders, "weird" 

Flicking her forehead, "oh you haven't heard of old people dating sites?" 

Frowning confusedly, "old people dating sites? No I haven't and why is it?" 

Chuckling, "okay I'll tell you" she whispered and explained. "Every woman needs a life partner, whom will watch over her, protect her and support her till the end of time. So no matter your age or who you are, you still need a partner." 

Sitting up properly, Bianca helplessly shook her head. "But it's not in my gene to date anyone right now, because–" placing her hand on her chest, she gave a doleful look and added, "I don't wanna suffer another heartbreak, please feel my pains" 

Patting the top of her head, she chuckled. "I do feel your pains too dear but heartbreaks are also part of life" 

Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, "huh?" Bianca shouted shockingly.

"Uh huh, if you didn't date someone then how do you experience heartbreaks? Or do you just watch them happen in the movies?"

BREATHLESS [A story that will touch your soul]

Grabbing the pillow from the floor, Justin dashed out of the room annoyingly. 


"No I think this one is better" drawing a particular design on a jotter with a pencil. "And it's gonna look much better on brighter colors" 


"But boss don't you think brighter colors will be too much for this particular design?" An employee said. 


"Yes ma'am, I think we should use not too bright and not too dull colors for this design, because it's going out once it's made and it's also gonna be used in Claro's modeling industry, remember." another one said. 


After thinking for some time, Bianca nodded her head in agreement. "Hmm you guys are making sense. Okay you know what's gonna happen? Inform the others, we are gonna make two thousand dresses from this Design, okay?" 


Vigorously nodding their heads, "yes ma'am" 


"Now everybody get back to work" Bianca said and left the department. 


"Boss, boss" an employee approach her. 


"Ma'am you have a meeting with my department in ten" 


"Alright but why didn't you pass the message through my assistant? She could have passed it directly to me instead" 


"Am sorry ma'am" the employee lowered her head. 


"It's alright, I'll be with your team shortly" 


"Yes boss" the employee lowered her head and left. 


Flipping the pages in the documents, "so what do you want me to do" Elsa adjusted her reading glasses. 


"Mom can't you talk to Justin? His wants to wed that cheap thing, that good for nothing Lorena" gritting her teeths, "Arrghh how much I hate that girl" 


Lifting her eyes from the documents, "really, you want me to end my son's wedding? Nelly like seriously?" 


Rolling her eyes, "no mom that's not what am trying to say" 


Slapping her forehead, Nelly leaned her back on the chair and sighed. "Mom am telling you the truth, Lorena does not love Justin, she love him only for his wealth and property and nothing else" 


Tossing the documents aside, Elsa adjusted her glasses and relaxed her hands on the desk, "Nelly I understand what you're saying, I know how it feels for you to see your brother getting married to a woman you don't like." Placing her hand on her chest, she explained. "Justin is my son too and I am his mother but honey there's nothing I or anyone can do about it. We've already talked about this before and I don't want to talk about it again" 


Widening her eyes, "Huh? Mom are you for real right now? Justin's wedding is two days from now and all you have to say is you can't do anything about it?" Crossing her hands in the front, she pouted her lips, "alright then, let's see how she's gonna be my sister in-law" 


Pointing the blue pen at her daughter, Elsa warned, "Nelly don't try anything stupid on my son's big day. Don't do anything silly, you get that?" 


"Am not planning anything stupid for my brother's wedding, all am saying is that I can't accept Lorena as my future sister in-law" she turned her face sideways.
