When she turned back to his direction, the strange man was gone.
And till it was time for her to leave the club she didn't see or hear of him.
She was disappointed, but then left in a taxi with Ivy.
But she still couldn't stop thinking about the strange man at the club.
...
Part One (
The taxi came to a halt, then Stella and Ivy, came down from the taxi.
They paid the cab man and immediately went into their apartment.
Immediately they arrived at their apartment, Ivy feel on the small sofa and dozed off immediately,
Meanwhile, a hungry Stella ran into the kitchen, for anything to mumble on.
She sighed, as she ate the last bag of chips that were in the refrigerator.
"Well at least I will resume work tomorrow, as get some money at the end of the month to go grocery shopping" she said to herself.
"I hope we don't die before then, but well I got some tips from some asshole billionaire's" Ivy would had woken up to get from cold water from the refrigerator, moved to sit opposite Stella on the dinning table, as she said those words.
She stood up to get the water from the refrigerator, then she brought out some cash from her bag.
"Oh my" Stella blurted out when she saw the huge amount of cash, Ivy brought out of her bag.
"Where the he did you get this, Ivy" Stella questioned with a bewildered expression.
"I told you that I got some tips from some of those idiots" Ivy said, as though it was just nothing..
"God.., so you got this all for what" Stella questioned again,
"Tell me Ivy, what did you do" Stella asked with concern and clear curiosity.
"Ok fine.. I'll tell you the truth" Ivy sighed, then she began.
"So we'll.. there's this billionaire, who I met last night.." she paused for a while trying to get any information from Stella's fixed expression.
"So he gave me all this to come meet him at a club down town, tomorrow night" Ivy finished as she bent her head a little bit ashamed.
"Gosh..I can't believe you would hid this from me.., so what if you went to see that man and you get kidnapped, what then would I do" Stella barked angrily.
"It's not fault okay, we really needed the money, and..even if I know that it's not safe for me to go see a stranger alone, what exactly do u expect I do?, do you want us to keep living in this dump of an apartment, eating garbage everyday" Ivy paused for a while, as the hot tears rolled down her eyes.
"I can't take this suffering anymore Stella, am tired of all of it, I want a better life, I mean who doesn't?" She added.
"I understand Ivy, but you don't know who this man really is, but if you want to go it's fine, I won't stop you" Stella sighed and replied, as she drew ivy closer for an embrace.
"I love you so much Stella, and if anything happens to me when I go to met with him, I want you to move on with your life, don't worry about me all the time, you still need to care for yourself",
"And I want you to know that you are such a great person, kind and sweet, Steven doesn't even know what he has got, he truly doesn't deserve you, stella" Ivy couldn't withstand the sadness, her tears poured out like ran.
"Don't say that Ivy, nothing's going to happen to you, I promise you that"
Stella shunned, then she added.
"And I love you too, cupcake"
"Let's go to bed now, it's already so late, and you have to resume work tomorrow" Ivy said, as she sat up straight and cleaned off her tears with the back of her hand.
"Yeah.. that's true" Stella yawned softly.
"You are sleepy already" Ivy giggled, as she pulled Stella to the bedroom.
"It's time to sleep, Grandma" ivy added
"Am not your grandma" Stella retorted pouting slightly.
"Whatever, you need to wake up early, so get to bed" ivy replied, as she sat on her bed.
"Well as for me good night" ivy said, as she positioned herself in her best sleeping manner.
"So you can just doze off like that..."
Stella chuckled when she saw the way Ivy pushed her butt out.
"Silly girl"
Stella chuckled again, and laid on her bed.
She smiled as she remembered the handsome face of the stranger.
How handsome he was.
Her grew bigger as she imagined herself being in the arms of that stranger, finally enjoying the life that she deserves.
How she wished - could wishes really come to pass, and if they could, then she really wished that he would wish, the wish, she wished.
She sighed and closed her eyes.
And in a quick second, she dozed off.
...
Stella was woken up by Ivy's gentle touches, she opened her eyes to breakfast in bed.
Surprised, she asked.
"Wow! How did you get all this"
"Trust me babe, I ordered, you know I can't cook" Ivy replied, as she arranged the dish in front of Stella.
"Yeah I know" Stella laughed out, and positioned herself in between the tray.
She sniffed the meal and couldn't help but say happily,
"Wow, I wouldn't in my next twenty years, believe that I would eat such a delicious meal like this, thank you so do much Ivy"
"It's okay, eat up quickly so you can prepare for work" Ivy perked her on her cheek and left for the kitchen.
After eating, Stella got dressed in a black business suit, a blouse, and a long side cut skirt, which brought out those excessive curves.
She said her good byes to Ivy, and got on a public bus to her new workplace - Raven industries.
This was to be her first day at work, and she was sure to impress her new boss.
