《I'm falling for my Ex Fiancé - (BOOK 2)》Part 28 - So are you guys getting back together?
Advertisement
The elevator door opened, i walked inside into Apollo Penthouse, the pent house looked so modern the floor covered with marbles filled with an expensive furniture with a monochrome color which were only white, gray and black. It was a two floor penthouse, which was so big for him to leave alone here. The smell when you walked inside smelled like a new house, I didn't know when he moved here but it always smelled like a fresh furniture fabric.
"Lanaaa!" The voice came from the grey stairs next to the living room, i looked up and found Alicia was running down the stairs. I could tell by her fast footsteps on the stairs.
She reached the end of the stairs by jumping and skipped the 3 last stares which made me kinda worried, she ran then she hugged me.
"Oh i missed you so much!" She said.
"I missed you too! It's been a long time" i said while hugging her back.
"What is this?" She asked me after she saw me holding a paper bag that had a brownies and ice cream.
"It's a brownies and a container of Apollo's favorite ice cream" i said smiling.
She smiled while grabbing the paper bag from my hand, "you're so sweet lets put it in of the fridge" she said then we walked into the dining room.
"Teresa?" Alicia walked into the dining room.
"Yes Miss Hamilton?" She asked and i could can see a strange face on Alicia's face.
"Uhm? Alicia?" She asked
"Okay Alicia" Teresa laughed because of her.
"Teresa, this is Avalana and she brought us this, well the ice cream is for Apollo but just save the brownies for us don't tell him" she said to teresa which made teresa laughs.
"We've met before" Teresa said before looking at me.
"Wait.., whaaaat?" Alicia said and her face was so funny.
"Ooow i got that" Alicia teased.
"I went here couple weeks ago with our friends" i said trying to clear up the information.

"Okay thanks teresa" Alicia said before her hand holding on my arm leading me into the dining room.
We waked into the living room, the room where Apollo, Sarah, Floyd and I spent our time together a couple weeks ago. It was a good time, i loved being there it was comfortable for us to chill and spending our time with friends. I didn't know what Apollo was doing alone inside of this big penthouse.
"So are guys getting back together?" Alicia shotted me a crazy question which made my eyes opened bigger because i was surprised with her question.
"No" i laughed.
"Oh you're with Ayden Irvine right?" She asked me with a sparkles on her eyes.
"Yeah probably" i said as we began to sit on the gray sofa in the living room.
She grabbed on the remote then she turned on the TV before started to talking to me again,
"This house is full of silent, i always bring a speaker every time i got here so i can make at least my room a bit noisy"
"The silent is killing me" she said and it made me smile.
"Apollo is so monotone and flat I don't know why" she said.
Yes, he always so flat and when you look at him it feels like there's a cold aura around him,
Especially with those stares which could kill and made people nervous sometimes. But i thought if we know him more and get into his space you would see him as a sweet carrying person, wait why did i have to be like that.
"So you guys are friends again?" She asked me and i slowly nodded.
"Cool it means both of you are mature enough to get over it" she said and she made me smile.
"Oh anyway you said you want to celebrate something what is it?" She asked me.
"I got a job from his hospital" i said smiling.
"Oh my god you're a doctor now, I totally forgot he told me that you were going to Oxford for your Med school which is very cool of you" she said.

"Thank you so much, i want to thank his family for letting me to get my job" i said.
"No you got it because your own potential Lana not because of them" she said and it was so sweet.

We spent the last one hour by talking and telling one another story and then we ate dinner together until the elevator door suddenly opened.
I saw Apollo walked out of the elevator with his black formal suit, he looked exhausted. I felt bad for coming I thought I was only going to disturb him.
"Welcome home Mr busy man" Alicia greet him.
He looked up from the floor and there was when our eyes met, his eyes met mine for a second while his hand was trying to take off the tie from his neck. He unbutton two upper buttons my eyes were stuck for a minute while watching him doing that but then I realized I shouldn't do that.
"Hey" he sigh and i could tell that he's pretty tired.
"Have you ate dinner?" Alicia asked her.
"No I haven't" he said then began to sit right in front of me.
"Here's your steak" Alicia said then he began to grab on a knife and a fork.
I watched him eating in front of me while i was sipping on a red wine that Alicia poured for me, Apollos seemed a lot quite when there was another person in the room rather when it was only me and him.
"By the way Lana has a news" Alicia said which made him looking up at me, his blue eyes looked brighter when it met mine.
"What is it?" He asked me.
"I got accepted" i smile.
"Really?" He asked.
"Congratulations" he said.
"Yaay" Alicia said trying to light up the situation but it seemed like he wasn't in the mood.
He looked pissed and exhausted since the first time he walked in, i thought something bad happened at the office. I wished everything was alright and i thought i came in a wrong time, maybe he didn't want me to be here.
Besides i had a boyfriend now and maybe he had a girlfriend which made him feel uncomfortable to have me around him.
I knew i should probably kept our gap stay still between us, i was hoping we were going to have a good friendship just like the old days.
Alicia started to talk about her new job which was pretty interesting, she told me she was working at some fashion brand company, it sounded pretty cool and amazing.
I throw a glance to Apollo who finally finished his dinner, he got up from the chair then leaving the both Alicia and i.
I thought it wasn't the right time for me to there that night, the way his face told me i could say he was super tired and needed a sleep.
Or maybe? He doesn't want to meet me?
"I'm sorry Lana i think he's just pissed because of work" Alicia said.
I thought she realize my expression when i looked into him who disappeared onto the stairs.
"That's okay maybe he's tired" i said.
"I should go home" i said.
"You sure?" She asked me.
"Yeah" i smiled.
"Just tell him thank you" i said to Alicia while looking into her eyes.
"Oh this" She stopped me from walking before giving me a piece of paper that had a phone number on it.
"What's this?" I asked her.
"My phone number" she smiled.
"Oh.., thank you" i said to her.
"Just call me if you need me, like anytime" she said.
"I will" i smiled.
I went home and i felt confused,
What happened to him?

War of Seasons
Dorothea Atlin is the young, apathetic leader of the neutral territory of Sirpo, a chilly land hovering above the continuously warring factions of Sacer and Ghuria, whose devastating magics have ravaged their people and lands time and time again. Following a shocking attack and a cruel deception, Dorothea grows her conscience and takes up arms, using her self-destructive ability to manipulate the flow of time to ensure Sacer’s victory. Her growing understanding of war and the two factions is guided by Iree Nobelis, the determined and enthralling commander of Sacer’s forces, Ariana Kingfisher, a steely swordswoman of mixed Ghurian and Sacerian descent, and Rhys Tamlin, a kind but haunted soldier who goes to challenge Dorothea’s self-imposed celibacy and join her on a mutual journey of healing from the tragic legacies of the Atlin family and wars between the nations. Meanwhile, Dorothea’s only friend and deserter from the Sacerian military, Shark Olyen, returns to their homeland to face the family that disowned them and finds more than they bargained for in meeting Cerid Creed, a noble whose duty to his people clashes with his desires in romance and in life, much like Shark’s did long before. As their developing or preexisting loves and differing convictions on how to achieve peace create rifts between these major players, Dorothea experiences a personal revolution that leads her to fight for what she believes is right, no matter the cost. A slow-burn story that takes time setting up the psychology and motivations of characters for explosive payoff later down the line.
