Hey guys. Just to correct something. If any of you Bradley cooper fans are angry because I chose Theo
James ,I'm sorry. I apologize. But still...I still love Theo James and no one Can change that.
I went to work the next day with a smile on my face. I was going to give Scott an answer today well,
that's if the offer still stands. I greeted feli and left to the office. I saw Scott wasn't here yet. I'll just wait
for him. I did the work in my office and saw Scott hadn't come. I didn't know if he was going to come to
the office. I proceeded to go downstairs for a break and get something to eat. I left to the cafeteria but I
saw Scott standing downstairs. I think he heard my footsteps and turned to look at me. He smiled at me
but I could see the fear in the smile. Give him another chance. Michelle's voice rang in my head. Well, I
think its time to give you another chance Scott. I smiled back at him and his face lit up. I started walking
towards him and he was grinning from ear to ear. I almost reached him if not a lady stepped in front of
me.
"Scott! How are you? Its been so long. I've missed you." A familiar voice said. It sounded so familiar but
I couldn't quite put my finger on it.
"Jasmine, oh my god. Its been so long. I've missed you so much. How have you been?" Scott said and Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
hugged her. Jasmine! That's the name. She was the lady who helped me the time Scott kicked me out
of his house. I felt awkward so I turned to leave.
"Emilia?" Scott called and I turned to meet his eyes.
"Do you remember Jasmine? The girl who took care of you when I...uhm, kicked you out. " he says
nervously.
"Yes, yes. Its a pleasure to see you again Jasmine. How've you been?" I greet and she looked at me
and I felt intimidated by her beauty again. Her beautiful brown hair was tied up in a ponytail and she
was wearing a blue jumpsuit and paired it with silver heels. She gave me her million dollar smile.
"Hey, its been so long" she says and hugs me and I hug her back. She pulled back first, the smile still
evident on her face.
"So, are you two like dating now?" she asks.
"No. We are not"
"Unfortunately, no" I and Scott say at the same time. I looked back to jasmine and I could see relief
pass through her eyes. What is she relieved from? .
"Mia, did you want to talk to me?" Scott asks and I remembered why I actually came.
"Yeah, I did but I can talk to you later. You guys have to catch up. Nice seeing you again Jasmine." I
say and smile then leave. I went to the cafeteria and met feli. She smiled at me and I smiled back.
"So...how's our hot boss treating you?" She asks smirking and I just rolled my eyes. I had my lunch and
left back to the office. I saw Scott was there already. Well, its now or never.
"Scott" I called out and he looked up and saw me. I gave him a small smile and he smiled, a mix of
shock, happiness and surprise mixed on his face.
"Yeah?" He answered.
"About that valentine dinner. I never gave you my answer so I want to give you the answer." I told him
and he looked nervous.
"Yes Scott. I will like to go to dinner with you." I told him with a smile and he smiled back. I loved that he
smiled. I love his smile. It makes me happy.

"Happy valentine day Mia !!!" Beth screamed in my ear with a balloon on my face.
"Happy valentine day Beth" I replied back with a smile and then she hugged me startling me by
surprise.
"Thank you Mia for everything. Thank you so much. I love you. Best sister ever." She said and I felt my
shirt getting wet and knew she was crying. I also had tears in my eyes and hugged her back so much.
"I love you too Beth. Best little sister ever." I replied back and hugged her like if I released her, she
would disappear. After our little sister bonding time, we stayed in and watched a marathon of 'friends'
and 'ugly betty' and had pizza with some sugar filled goodies and then it was time for my date. Scott
said I should just wear what I would come be comfortable in. Great answer right..... Not. I settled for a
blue flay gown and a black denim jacket and black flats. I put my hair up in a neat ponytail and put on
some powder mascara and pink lip gloss. I looked nice. It was already eight o'clock and Scott wasn't
here yet. Maybe, its the traffic. It was already eight forty five and he wasn't here yet so I decided to call
him but looked like he started calling me so I pressed the 'accept' button.
"Hey Scott. Your not here yet. What's wrong?" I asked.
"Yeah. Emilia, I'm so-"
"Scott, who's that?" A familiar female voice said in the background.
"I'm so sorry. I told Jasmine about our date and she was really happy but then she got sick. I have to
stay with her because she couldn't go back to her friend's place today. She will be going next week so I
said she could stay at my house but now she's sick and I have to stay with her at home. I'm sorry Mia
but....I can't make it." He apologized. I felt empty. I dressed up for nothing.
"Mia? Are you there?" Scott said and I cut off the phone. He stood me up. Wow. Why am I even
surprised? I let out a bitter laugh. Beth asked how the dinner went and well...I was blunt. I told her Scott
stood me up and she insulted him. I went to sleep with only one thought.
He chose me over Jasmine.
Hey guys. What's up? I can't believe Scott did this. Well please read on.. it gets better.
