What if I'm wrong again?

-Too bad, we'll go on Thursday otherwise, I replied.

-Yeah, my manager told me before adding, don't forget your tour in Paris next week

-Time flies so quickly, smiles Meridia

-Yeah, confirms his manager

After this discussion I look at them with an excited look. I had to tell them.

-I have to tell you something, I said to them suddenly, smiling.

We sat around the table for breakfast, a simple but comforting routine after such an eventful night. The aromas of freshly brewed coffee and warm croissants filled the kitchen, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance.

-So, tell us everything, said Meridia with a smirk, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

I smile, happy to share the details of my crazy night with them.

-It was incredible. The nightclub was sumptuous, the atmosphere electric. Koen and I danced all night, it was… intense.

I told them about the highlights, from our sensual dance to the way he'd kissed me with raw passion against the car. They listened to me attentively, Meridia nodding and her husband giving me knowing glances from time to time.

-I'm glad you had a good evening, said my manager smiling, but...

I could feel the rest of his sentence hanging in the air. I knew them well, and I knew they couldn't help but worry about me.

-But you have reservations about Koen, right? I asked softly, anticipating their concerns.

Meridia put down her coffee cup and looked me straight in the eyes.

-We're worried about you. You are our priority, and we want to make sure you don't get hurt

Her husband nodded.

-Koen seems charming, but we don't know him very well yet. We just want to make sure he's worthy of your trust.

I completely understood their concern. But it hurt my heart to know that I was so unlucky in love. Why some manage to find love on the first try and others after numerous failures.

-I understand, I replied. "And I thank you for caring about me. I'm taking things one day at a time. I just want to give him a chance to prove that he's different."

Meridia smiled softly.

-We will always be there for you, no matter what. And maybe this charity event will be a good opportunity for all of us to see what he's really capable of.

I nodded, appreciating their support and wisdom.

-THANKS. You are the best, truly.

We continued to eat, discussing various topics, but the prospect of the charity event remained at the center of our thoughts. After breakfast, Meridia and her husband went back to work to check the details of the orphanage announcement. For my part, I decided to take care of a few tasks and get ready for the day.

The sun was now high in the sky, but I was feeling mixed. My manager's words kept coming back to me.

What if I was wrong again?

However, the previous night had left me with unforgettable memories. How could it not be him when I feel all these wonderful emotions towards him.

Come on Huyn don't start getting sad in front of them, I thought as I pulled him together, not now
