Let Him Love You First

After leaving everything behind, Zoey needs to go home and face all she have left. She thought time can heal all wounds but after reuniting with her friends, she has to face her mortal nemesis as well as her ex boyfriend. Little did she know that there is a guy who is watching her from a far that will help her mend her shuttered heart. --- To: America Message: You know what? If you thought that Zoey was wrong for treating you badly, wouldn't it be better for the two of you to sit down, relax and talk? Remember that you've been friends since childhood. Reply: Earl it's easy to say but hard to do. Yes! We've been considering each other as best of friends but why did she decide to believe other people's hearsay? For their seven years of friendship, Zoey could say that America is a hard-headed person. Zoey pretended to be someone just to have a decent conversation with her. All she wanted was to know the truth. It started when one of her classmates saw both America and Michael, Zoey's boyfriend, at the mall. At first, when she heard about this, she thought that what was the deal of seeing them? What if they were buying some stuff together? She naïvely thought that it would be better than her best friend was on good terms with her boyfriend. In that way, she can help and understand them if they were fighting. But all of those thoughts disappeared in an instance when her classmate showed her a picture wherein they caught in the act of kissing and holding each other's hands while buying Cinema Tickets. She dialed America's phone number and tried to ask where she was last weekend when someone saw them together. America answered her calmly, "I was at home sleeping. Why? You knew that Mom was mad at me, and I grounded and forbad going outside last weekend, right?" After she had heard her reply, she thought that her response was like a big slap on her face; she knew that she was lying because her friend's evidence was authentic. The photo has a date on it, and it was impossible for anyone to edit or change the said photo because she used a film camera. Zoey thought of it before she called Michael and asked the same question. After Michael had answered her phone call and heard her question, his forehead instantly covered with cold sweat. Did Zoey found out about them? He tried to calm himself first before answering, "Babe I've told you that Dad was still mad at me and ordered me to stay at home and that was the reason I couldn't pick you up after your ballet lesson." Little did he know that his answer was exactly the same as what America has said to Zoey? Zoey started to have a doubt about them. After that week, Zoey found more about their illicit romance. They indeed are having an affair behind her. When most of her friends tried to convince to break it up with him, Zoey finally decided to do it. She then again called and asked him to meet her at the park near our village. When he arrived she immediately said, "Mike, let's end this." At that moment, she was already shredding her tears as she was asking him to end their relationship. Mike wanted to hold her hand but before he even had the chance to grab her left hand Zoey already stepped backward to avoid him. "Z I'm sorry. I know I'm wrong. I know I wronged you but please don't this to me. I was tempted, I seduced. I don't like nor love America. Babe, please don't say that." Who would have thought that Michael has the audacity to say that? Zoey was confused about what to believe; she didn't know if Michael was telling the truth or if it was another set of lies. But before she turned around and leaves, she took aback when she saw him kneeling and crying on the ground while asking for her forgiveness. She took them back her words.

Ribbon Cutting and Opening Ceremony (1)

The ribbon cutting for Asian-Sealed will be televised nationwide, being the talk of the town since the CEO of the head office announce his plan regarding the expansion of the corporation in an Asian region.

Reporters, cameramen, and spectators surrounded the entrance of the building. Even bystanders gathered around to witness the biggest collaboration of the year.

Nickel arrived at the venue an hour earlier because he needs to supervise the upcoming ribbon cutting to avoid any incident for today's event.

Wearing a navy blue suit with a white inner shirt, Director Fuentes looks so dazzling in the eyes of everyone. The way he flips his imaginary hair made the surrounding ladies explode their gonad from extreme arousal. It was just him flipping his imaginary hair, but women are gone crazy.

Nickel was reading the program for the ribbon cutting event when Zoey approached him.

"Director Fuentes, do you summoned me?" Zoey was standing in front of him.

Due to an unexpected circumstance, the assigned master of ceremony won't be able to come and be the emcee for this ribbon cutting because he needs to bring his kid to the hospital. When the HR officer phoned Nickel early in the morning to inform him about what happened, he only sighed and touches his forehead. Perhaps this just the beginning of all the problems he will be facing as the Managing Director of Asian-Sealed Corporation.

"Can you be the master of ceremony? Gelo won't be coming as he brought his child to the hospital for a fever." It was unnecessary for him to mention the condition of the kid, but he knew that Zoey would ask it anyway. To save him from answering her possible inquiries, he informed her of the reason for Gelo's absence.

"Err..." Zoey was scratching her nape as she was hesitating whether to say yes or no to him. "I can be but maybe there are more suitable candidates aside from me." Although Zoey is an outspoken person, this event isn't the right place for her to be outspoken because higher personalities attended this so-called historical event.

"I've already asked everyone and no one wanted to be the emcee. If we will not decide now, this ribbon cutting will be put in vain. It will also be an embarrassment to the company and disappointment to the administration."

Nickel wanted to give her a feeling of guilt once she declines his offer. As a matter of fact, he didn't ask anyone. As for his real intention was Zoey to become the master of ceremony.

A part of him was asking why you chose Zoey for this important event. Aren't you worried that she will mess it up today?

The only reason why he chooses her was that he wanted her to stay beside him during the ceremony.

---

Thinking that this event will be put in vain, Zoey agreed to be the emcee. "Okay then, if no one will do then I will."

Nickel secretly smirked.

Michael was asked to attend the opening ceremony and ribbon cutting of Asian-Sealed Corporation on behalf of the CEO because he is on Germany as of now for an important matter.

When Michael received the message of the secretary of the CEO, he wanted to throw a rage because this collaboration is actually a pain in his ass. It gave him a lot of problems, stress and sleepless nights just to settle everything for its documentation and processing.

"Why doesn't this ASC leave him alone? I already did my part, why is it still haunting me?!"

After Manager Baron closed this deal, all the paper works ended up to him.

Without given any choice to decline the order, Michael reluctantly attendees the said event. Standing at the guest area, Michael was scrolling his phone while waiting for them to start.

When America heard about this, she asked Michael to bring her with her. She thought with this event; she can meet an influential person to leech and help her to succeed, so her mom will perhaps be proud of her.

Michael dismissed her request because this is an official matter or event to his job. He doesn't want people from his work to judge him that he brings a partner to an important collaboration. Maybe after becoming the next COO, he can bring anyone he likes.

A mellow voice echoed to the area. People looked at the mini stage to see who owns that melodious voice.

"Welcome to Asian-Sealed Corporation Ribbon cutting and opening ceremony! Today we celebrate the grand opening of our business. We are so thankful to so many of you, who have been with us every step of the way so that this day would finally come. My name is Zoey, and I will be your host for today's event."

Unbelievably! Zoey performs so well as the host of the event. Due to the lack of time, she didn't prepare her script and just say whatever comes to her mind. With her bubbly personality and melodious voice, their once bored and sleepy guest was all awakened and energized with her voice.

Even Nickel who was standing near her didn't expect that she is this good. He can't help it but smile to her. In which makes the ladies around explode their ovaries from his seductive but radiant grin.

"I would like to introduce a few special persons to you." The HR officer gave her a list of attendees. Reading their names out loud, spectators and other guest applaud and welcome the persons.

"Next is Mr. Michael Cortez, head manager of Orb, the multi telecommunication partner that help Asian-Sealed Corporation. Let's give him an around of applause.

Before Zoey read his name out loud, she is surprised that Michael is working in Orb. She thought that there would be a greater chance for them to meet in the future.

Even Nickel was surprised that this guy was here in this event. He looked around and saw him looking at Zoey intensely.

Can you also spread me some words or reviews?

Hehehehe! ???
