《ORPHANAGE GIRL》Chapter 11

Advertisement

Right now I'm lying on my bed, not able to sleep, thinking about the only one guy who has been constantly in my mind from last few weeks.

Today I got to see a different side of him, a side that he hides from everyone but his close ones.

Even though I have not known him for so long but after the second encounter I checked him on Google. He was often known as a ruthless CEO and a womanizer.

And I also saw him with that woman at club but the Mr. Maxwell I saw today, he was soft, vulnerable and caring. He should me this different side of him, does this mean?

Whoa! Wait there brain. Don't go further.

Sighing heavily I grabbed a pillow and placed it between my knees and clutched it with my hands.

Time to sleep

"Good morning" Freya came inside the kitchen dressed in her work attire.

"Very good morning" I smiled brightly at her

"Mhhmmm someone is in a really good mood this morning" she grinned at me.

"Ahh, I'm always in a good mood"

She raised her eyebrows with her nose slightly crunched

"Hey" I hit her arm, making her laugh.

"Seriously. What's with all these smiles?"

"It's nothing. A week are left for the annual orphanage program. I'm just excited about that" it's partially true and this reminds me to visit orphanage today.

"Can I come?" freya asked, sipping her coffee

"Of course you can"

"Okay I gotta go now" she hugged me and rushed out of the apartment.

When she left, a big smile appeared on my face.

"I knew it you were lying" Freya leaning against the door making me jump slightly in surprise.

"You" I throw my leftovers apple at her, but she ran before it could hit her.

Her laughter echoing through the hallway.

Shaking my head, I went up to my room to get dressed.

I don't know why, but every time I come to this place, this warm feeling fill up my heart.

Smiling I went inside the orphanage carrying a bag full of cupcakes.

I saw some small kids playing and the bigger one are studying.

"As everyone is busy, I think I have to eat this cupcakes all by myself" I said loudly as I approached the kids.

"Olivia" all kids came running laughing and giggling. It makes my heart warm. They are so precious.

"I want a cupcake"

"Me too"

"Yeah I need the big one"

"Okay okay everyone will get one but first I need my hug" I smiled at them

They all came and hugged me.

"I'm squeezing" a muffled voice came

We pulled away and saw that Lily was squeezed between the hug.

She scowled at everyone, patting her head to settle the messy hair.

Other kids laughed at her,

"Hey, hey come here" I grabbed her wrist making her sit on my lap.

"They are making fun of me" she pots cutely

"No they are not. Are they?" I looked up at other kids to which they shake their head no.

"See?"

Lily smiled wiping her tears with her small hands

"Okay now cupcakes"

I gave one to every kid and they sat down in a circle.

I gave Lily two cupcakes which she held in both of her hands.

"Yummy. When I'm a big girl like you, I will make this yummy cupcakes too" Lily told me licking the frosting off the cupcakes.

"Sure, I will teach you how to make" I kissed her cheeks

"Taste it" she said raising her cupcake towards my mouth.

I took a small bit from it.

Lily started laughing at me pointing at something. I furrowed my eyes at her.

"Hehehe oli you go-" she stopped talking as Mrs. Williams approached us.

"Olivia" Mrs. Williams call my name behind me.

I stood up as soon as I heard her voice, I turned around to face her but there's someone standing with her.

My eyes instantly landed on his sophisticated suit with this hands in his pocket and his eyes covered with blue shades.

"Hello Mrs. Williams" I hugged her.

When I pulled back from her I looked at Mr. Maxwell,

"Good morning, Mr. Maxwell"

I had no plans on visiting orphanage today, but somehow I knew that Olivia would be there.

I remember Mrs. Williams telling me about the annual orphanage program is in about a week, so I thought of helping her out with some suggestions and also to see that girl who is wandering around my mind from past few days

Usually I don't really care about how I look but today I have some extra time to choose my dress myself.

After going through all the dresses inside my closet, I settled for dark blue suit with white button down shirt.

I took a quick shower and then got dressed.

I looked at myself into the mirror, I don't look sulky today. Actually from the day met her, I have always been in a good mood.

I remember how she lectured me on the first day we met. Seriously, if it was someone else I would have shown who they were talking to.

But when I looked into her warm green doe like eyes, I just couldn't. Her confidence surprised me, no one has ever talk to like that before but something about this girl made me more curious. I didn't except to her again that day but my anger slowed down when my eyes landed on her. It was like I don't want her to see this side of me.

And the other day when I was with her inside the library, seeing her smile when she looked at all those books, I couldn't take my eyes off.

And when I carried her for the first time, she fitted so perfectly in my arms. And how she wrapped her arms around me while resting her head on my chest, I felt something different.

And at the party when I was in the meeting with some investors I saw her through the glass window, drinking and talking to Brandon, I don't know what happened but there was a sting of jealousy. She was laughing with him

When she felt sick I couldn't just stand there and do nothing, so I took her back to her apartment. And there again she was in my arms.

And now, I can see her from Mrs. Williams's office's window, sitting on the grass with children surrounding her.

That light pink floral sundress, with like long her brown hair left down reaching her waist. And that smile playing on her lips.

She look so angelic, wearing......

"So, ahem" Mrs. Williams interrupted my thought.

"Yeah?" I looked at her not knowing what she was talking about.

She stared at me for a minute then looked outside the window and then again at me.

"Thank you for your help Mr. Maxwell, we could really use an organizer for this program" she said smiling.

"No problem, Mrs. Williams. This place matters a lot to my mom and I want to help as much as I can" I replied as I got up from the chair, buttoning my blazer.

We walked outside were the kids and Olivia are sitting.

We can hear them laughing and giggling about something.

"Olivia" Mrs. Williams called her out.

She ruffled the little girl hair who was sitting on her lap, then she stood off wiping the dust from her sundress and turned around with a smile.

Then her eyes fell upon me, her smile dropped making my heart crunched but within a second she smiled more brightly.

She came towards, Mrs. Williams and hugged her.

Then she faced me,

"Good morning Mr. Maxwell"

But something else caught my eyes, slightly making me chuckle.

She furrowed her eyes at me, confused.

I shake my head smiling and took out a handkerchief from my pocket and gave it to her.

"Here, you have icing on your nose" I told her pointing at her nose.

Her eyes widen when my words registered to her.

She took the handkerchief from my hand and slightly rubbed it on the top of her nose.

"I didn't know you were a messy eater Miss Evans" I teased her. Since when I started teasing someone?

"I-i " she shuttered. Her face turning red

She looked at me and glared when she saw that I was teasing her.

"Lily told me to take a bit of the cupcake, I didn't know" she explained now looking at Mrs. Williams.

"It's okay child" Mrs. Williams placed her hands on her cheeks.

She smiled at her.

She reminds me so much of her.
