Found Again

“No, not now.”

Andrew’s lips settled in a thin line before he pursed it. He looks displeased with my answer. He didn’t say anything.

I sighed and shooked my head. “I want to talk first with Lieo. I want to hear that from him.”

“Why do you need to hear it from him? Don’t you trust me?” Andrew asked a bit offended.

I held his hand and caress it. “Of course not! I trust you, baby.”

He still looks pissed with me.

“I trust you but I still need to hear his side before I act. Baby, please try to understand that Lieo is a good friend of mine. He was there with me when I was in pain. If you think that he has a plan to steal me from you, then I will be the one to say disagree with what you are thinking right now.” I said calmly.

“If he had a plan o win my heart or steal me from you, he has already done that two years ago when I was so vulnerable, but he did not. He was just there for me as a friend. He never took advantage of my vulnerability.” I added.

Andrew Look away from my gaze as he was trying to think about it. He nodded as he understand my point.

“Fine. But what will you do if he confesses his feelings for you? Will you give him a chance?” Andrew asked quietly.

My lips parted. Is he being real with his question?! He was already my boyfriend! Why will I give Lieo a chance if I’m in love with him?!

“Are you being serious right now?! Why will I give him a chance if you already owned my heart?!” I hissed.

Andrew’s eyes widen a fraction from the shock of my frankness. Then his face reddened. I enjoy watching him blushing from what I said. He looks so cute and hot at the same time. I want to take a photo of his face right now and showed it to the group. I bet he will earn a good teasing from them.

“Is Andrew Lopez, the hottest singer in the country, blushing right now?” I teased him.

His face reddened even more. He was trying to look cold but his face betrayed him. I really love this man!

“I love you, Andrew Lopez,” I said and smiled sweetly at him.

Andrew looks at me more calmly now. “I love more, Allison Alonzo.”

My first week in the country is my busiest week for the past two years. We need to redo our plans because of my sudden decision. But no matter how busy Andrew and I were, we always make sure that we see each other at the end of the day. We both wanted to make up for the two years that we are not together.

Now is Liah’s birthday, she is Andrew’s beautiful niece. She turned four years old this year. It will be my first time celebrating her birthday. I hope that she still remembers me.

“Ms. Allison, Sir Andrew is already in the living room.” One of our house help announced.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

I nodded at her and grab my bag and my gift for Liah.

Andrew looks dashing in his crisp white button-down shirt, khaki chino pants, and brogue shoes. It was a simple outfit but his handsome face and great physique make him more outstanding.

“Let’s go?” He asked while offering his hand.

I gladly nodded and received his hand.

“Do you think Liah still remembers me?” I asked as Andrew drives to the event’s place.

“You still remember you. She was a fan of your vlog. She always brags you to her classmates in her school.” Andrew answered.

All my nervousness vanish from what he just said. I’m glad that she still remembers me. I love that girl so much. She became close to my heart the first time I met her.

“Auntie Alli!” Liah run towards me as soon as she saw me at the entrance of the venue.

Liah’s birthday was held in one of the rising five-star hotels in the country. Laertes Hotels are known in Europe, they expanded their hotel in Asia and US. I was familiar with this hotel because Noah introduce me to Kaela Escarrer, she was the daughter of the owner of LHI.

I smile at her and hugged her. “I miss you, sweetie!” I whispered.

“I miss you too Auntie!” She said and release me.

I smile at her and gave her my gift.

“Wow! Thank you, Auntie Alli!”

Andrew was carrying Liah while he introduce me to the family. They requested LHI to make the party as private as they can since Andrew will be introducing me again to his family. The hotel also let us use their private elevator so that we can avoid the public.

“I’m glad you are finally back Alli!” Auntie Gwen, Andrew’s mom said while she hugs me.

Andrew told me that his parents doesn’t know what happen to our relationship. What they only know is that I will be staying in the US for a while because of the great opportunity that was offered to me. He also told them that we both decided to keep our relationship a secret from the public.

“Thank you, Auntie! I’m also glad to be back. I miss all of you.” I said to her.

“When are you planning to announce your relationship in public? You can’t keep your relationship a secret to them forever. Also, I want to introduce you to my friends as my son’s girlfriend. Their children were a fan of yours.” Auntie Gwen said looking proudly for me.

Auntie Gwen’s love and support warm my heart. I feel sorry for them for hurting his son. I hope that they can still love and support me even when they found out about me and Andrew for the past two years.

“Can you just announce your relationship in public? I’m not comfortable when people link my son to some singers I don’t even know and to his manager. My friends even believe the rumor that Andrew’s girlfriend is his manager.” I could see the disgust on her face.

I get her point. Since Andrew keep mum about his love life, people became more curious about it.

“Auntie, can I steal my friend for a while?” It was Iya. She just arrived.

Iya grabbed my hand as soon as Auntie Gwen agreed to her request.

“Alli, how’s the meet and greet with your future in-laws!” Mike teases me as soon as we came close to them.

“It was good. May I ask why you guys are here? Does Liah even know you guys?” I asked.

“Of course! We are Liah’s favorite uncle!” It was my ever cocky cousin.

While the rest of the group was busy chatting, I asked Iya to take a photo of me that I will post on my social media account.

I was wearing a white tweed jacket as a mini dress, I partnered it with a bald belt to emphasize my tiny waist. I also accessorized it with a black mini bag and black stilettos. This outfit was sponsored by Lush. I needed to post this look to promote the brand.

“Auntie Alli are you done with your photoshoot with Auntie Iya? Can you come with me now? I want to introduce you to my friends.” Liah grab my hand and pulled me to where her friends are as soon as I said yes to her.

The guest at this party are mostly relatives of Liah’s mom and dad. Andrew already informed them about us. Even the parents of Liah’s friends were informed about us. It was not difficult to ask this favor from them since they are all family close friends.

“Friends, I’d like you to meet my uncle Andrew’s girlfriend, Auntie Alli, she’s a well-known vlogger. Remember the vlog I showed you before? That was her!” Liah sounded so proud as she introduce me to her friends.

They all greeted me with a smile on their face.

“But I thought that girl is your uncle’s girlfriend.” One of Liah’s friends asked while pointing at Anne.

“Of course not! She was just my uncle’s manager.” Liah hissed.

“But she was always with your uncle in all your family events.”

My brow furrowed from that statement. “Is that true Liah? Is Anne always with your uncle at all your family parties?”
