Chapter 17: New Friend
Spread love wherever you go.
Let no one ever come
to you without leaving happier.

"So what are you planning for today? You know since you'll only start baking in the evening and your designing will start only when Terry comes back from his office. So what're you gonna do?" Tristian asks, taking a sip from his cup of coffee.
I shrug. "I don't know, maybe I'll just for a walk," I tell him and he smiles.
I never ever imagined a day where I'll sit simply without any work and take rest. Until yesterday I was running to finish my work on time but today it's very different. I have my own home where I just prepared a cup of coffee and pancakes for boyfriend. Boyfriend. Being Tristian is so new but it feels like I have been with for years.
"I have to go, Love," Tristian tells, placing the cup on the kitchen table. He stands up and presses a kiss on my forehead before he walking out. I smile brightly seeing him go. I wave my hands at him when he settles in his car. He winks and I blush.
Today morning, when I was preparing the breakfast, Tristian sat on the chair and told me all the stories of his first day. He even explained me about the surgery he's doing today, he tells that he feels confident when he explains the procedure to someone. And that someone is me today. I couldn't help but jump in joy knowing that I'm a part of his life. Waking up in the morning, pressed against him is definitely not new but it's one of the thing I love.
Terry had to go early as his board meeting is tomorrow and he has to prepare few things for it. I don't know anything about such stuff, I never entered a designing company.
Now that everyone has gone, it's time to take a walk. Maybe a small shopping. My advance for baking has already been transferred to my account so I can start buying the incredients. I still didn't decide on the cake I was baking as Terry told that the first time I can decide the cake.
I brush off my thoughts. I have to change first.
"Oh my God! I'm so sorry," the girl tells, when her eyes catches the sight me on the sidewalk. "I'm really sorry," she mutters, helping me to stand up. "You okay? I'm really sorry. I was in a hurry and I didn't notice. I swear, I didn't mean to push you like that. It's just that I came from this direction...and..you from..that direction and..I..I..God, I'm so sorry," she tells and a small smile tugs at the corner of my lips.
She has a pair of brown-colored eyes and a stunning face. She's wearing a blue dress which ended till her knees, her blonde hair loose and ended till her waist. She looks beautiful.
"It's alright. I'm perfectly fine," I assure her and her face relaxed. "You okay? Do you need any help?" I ask and her smile turn into a wide grin.
"By chance, do you know any flower shops? The one I knew is closed," she drawls and I nod my head.
"Come with me, I'll show you," I tell her and she smiles. She holds my hand.
"Let's go," she tells and I chuckle slightly.
After one hour, the girl is finally relaxed as she hands the bouquet of yellow roses to a boy who accepts it and listens to her instructions. I notice that she still had a hold of my hand. She didn't leave my hand even once throughout the time we walked and booked the flowers.
She turns towards me with a smile and then pulls me for a hug. I reciprocate the action and then she pulls away from the hug. "How about a cup of coffee?" she asks. I nod my head in approval. A cup of coffee definitely will not harm anyone
We settle on our seats in the restaurant and order our coffees. "I'm Laura, twenty-six years old, I'm a wedding planner. Today is the first wedding I'm planning and everything went well until the bride shouted that she needed bouquet of yellow roses so I had to run in search of yellow roses. You became my savior and the wedding is done. All the arrangements is being done by my assistant and it's all good. Thanks to you," she finishes and takes a deep breathe. She grins. "I'm a bit talkative, don't mind me."
I chuckle hearing her. "I'm Mia, twenty-four years old and I have two jobs. One as a designer and other as baker. Today is my first day of work," I tell her and her grin widens.
"What a coincidence? We both are on our first day of work but very free too." I laugh hearing her.
"Where do you live?" I ask, trying to bring up a conversation. I tuck my loose strand of hair behind my ear.
"I settled here since past few months. No parents as they died when I was twenty. I'm staying with a friend of mine who's being a bitch at times. My pay is already in my account so my first work is to find a house," she tells and a sudden thought pops into my mind.
"Do you mind having a roommate? I mean maybe two or three roommates at times."
She shakes her head immediately. "I don't mind unless they're serial killers," she replies and I laugh.
Look like I got a new friend!
"What the fuck is going on?" is roared, and I look at Laura with wide eyes and feel my heart lodge itself in my throat.
"Oh shit," I breathe, and my stupid best friend has the audacity to point at me and laugh.
"Mia?" he calls, and I duck down. Why? I don't know; it's not like he can't see me. But I feel safer hidden behind Laura, who is now laughing like a hyena. "Why're there so many shopping bags spread in the hall? Did you really buy so much?" Tristian asks, walking to the bedroom.
When Tristian catches the sight of me, I slowly move away from Laura and give him a nervous smile. His eyes widens when he sees my new style. "You..you?" He looks shocked and I feel more nervous. He doesn't like it, oh God, I shouldn't have listened to Laura.
"She looks beautiful, ain't she?" Laura asks out of nowhere and Tristian's gaze move towards her.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Laura, Mia's new friend. We'll talk about it later. Now tell whether you like it or not," Laura orders, her hands on her hips.
Tristian turns his gaze towards me and steps towards me. He pulls me into his arms and hugs me. "You look gorgeous," he whispers in my ears.
Laura winks at me. Apparently, her choice is amazing.
"Now introduce me to your new friend," Tristian tells and I smile.
