BREATHLESS [A story that will touch your soul]

EP 1; Placing the coffee mug on the glass table, "you know what darling, girls like you who always try to run away from dating and relationships, always end up falling in love at the end." Letting out a brittle laughter, "grandma I think you're under the influence of fairy tales. Or did you watch Cinderella cartoons before coming?" "Huh? I can't even remember the last time I watched fairy tales movie." "Then why are you talking bout dating and relationships? Because I know am not interested in them" Raising her eyebrows, granny Mathilda burst into laughter. Scowling her face, "grandma what's funny? I didn't say something funny" Slightly pinching and pulling bianca's cheeks, granny Mathilda chuckled, "yes dear, you just said something funny." Frowning confusedly, "how?" Taking a deep breath, "first of all, let me tell you something." She sat up properly and faced her. "Do you know that old men and women of my age  still goes into relationship?" Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, Bianca threw her hands in her mouth and gasped. "Ahh, you gat to be kidding me grandma" Nodding her head, "no darling, am not kidding, am talking legit." "But why do they have to go into a relationship when they're old and weak?" Shrugging her shoulders, "weird" Flicking her forehead, "oh you haven't heard of old people dating sites?" Frowning confusedly, "old people dating sites? No I haven't and why is it?" Chuckling, "okay I'll tell you" she whispered and explained. "Every woman needs a life partner, whom will watch over her, protect her and support her till the end of time. So no matter your age or who you are, you still need a partner." Sitting up properly, Bianca helplessly shook her head. "But it's not in my gene to date anyone right now, because–" placing her hand on her chest, she gave a doleful look and added, "I don't wanna suffer another heartbreak, please feel my pains" Patting the top of her head, she chuckled. "I do feel your pains too dear but heartbreaks are also part of life" Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, "huh?" Bianca shouted shockingly. "Uh huh, if you didn't date someone then how do you experience heartbreaks? Or do you just watch them happen in the movies?" P.S The cover page don't belong to me.

Nelly's backup

Widening her eyes in shock, her heart pound in fear. Bianca sat up quickly, pressing and holding her knees to her chest.

Sensing the frightened look on her face, Justin pulled back a bit and wanted to say something. But Bianca quickly stood up and dashed out of the room like a flash of light.

"Damnit! How cruel was I and now she's scared of me like a monster." Justin cursed himself and sat on the bedside, massaging his forehead while immersing in a deep thought.

He stood up from the bed when he finally got a brilliant idea of fixing things right.

Hospital

Nelly's cabin

Placing the report booklets on the desk. "Nelly these are the medical report. Take your time to scan it very well before bringing it to my office, okay?"

"Yes mom" she replied with her eyes not leaving the phone.

Placing her hand on her waist, Elsa scowled. "What are you busy doing?"

When Nelly did not answer, she slammed the desk. "Nelly!"

Nelly startled and slapped her forehead. "Yes Mom, were you saying something?"

"What are you busy doing?" Without waiting for her reply, she exclaimed. It's working hours and not chatting hours, so you better ask your boyfriend to excuse you for now, and get back to work."

Slightly scrunching her brows, "boyfriend? Hell no, am not chatting with Thomas–" widening her eyes when she realized she just spoke an unexpected statement. Trying to reframed her words, "umm, that was a slip of tongue, mom"

Raising her brows, "are you and Thomas dating?"

Vigorously nodding her head, "n–no–yes–oh shit I mean no" she stammered.

Crossing her hands in the front, Elsa helplessly shook her head. "Nelly, I know you're telling lies, just be candid with me, is not as if am going to kill you or something."

Lowering her head, "yes mom, Thomas and I are dating."

"For how long?"

Awkwardly scratching her neck, "for some couple of months now."

Rolling her eyes, "My dear" lifting Nelly's face up, "look at me, there's no need to be shy in speaking the truth, okay?" When Nelly nodded, she added. "Do you think, if you tell me the truth that am gonna ask you to stop dating him?" She chuckled, "no dear, I won't do that, because I want you to be happy." Pausing for a while, she added, "do you love him?"

Vigorously nodding her head, "yes mom, I do love him."

"Alright, it's fine. There's no need to be scared or worried over anything. Even if he breaks up with you, just know that I gat your back, okay?"
