Standing before their mirrors in two different apartments, one in the bathroom and the other before the floor to ceiling mirror in her closet. Both souls were lost in their thoughts hoping for the best out come for today. Today was like a very important day for the two of them, and they both felt very anxious.
Alex thought of seeing her today, he wondered what she looked like now, what her reaction to see him again would be. He was anxious and happy at the same time.
The thought of seeing Hazel again made him excited, no excited is not the right word, he was pumped up. He was sipping his favorite wine not his liquid this time in the bathroom without a care as he shaved the grown bush on his face. His stubborn Hazel, he was going to see her again he didn't care if she would forgive him instantly, no woman would for what he did.
Alex has been very happy since he arrived in London with Ben of course. He had asked the man to find out about her, Ben came with reports but he has been unable to go through the envelope the man brought in.
All he wanted right now was to see her. He wanted her to know he's no longer the man he used to be. She's changed him completely, he's learnt his lesson, and all he wanted was for this endless pain and torture to be over. He applied a moisturizing oil on his face smiling at his reflection in the mirror.
He hasn't changed from how he used to be except of course the little eye bag beneath his eyes. It's been so long since he saw himself smile this much. Why wouldn't he? When he's going to see his wife again.

I was anxious and could feel my hands shaking as I wore a white pantsuit but suddenly it won't fit anymore, Why the fuck won't fit anymore? Today of all days when I had an important business to attend to. This is so annoying.
What I couldn't understand was how the baby bump get this big in the space of a week, I got more upset thinking of wearing something else. I had nothing else to wear. I had deliberately gone for shopping with Falcon, and he even suggested I took larger size but I stubbornly refused.
He'd laugh so hard if he sees his predictions are coming through. I hated it when I'm this anxious, though Falcon had promised to join me for the meeting, I still felt very nervous. I don't think he'd even join me, not after our fight yesterday.
Thinking of Falcon, I recalled yesterday's event. How could he be inlove with me? It's just so stupid.
'Breath Hazel it's nothing, all you have to do is state the reasons why they should accept the company. We can't possibly crash for a task this simple'. I tried encouraging myself as I sat on my dressing mirror to apply little makeup.
I took in deep breaths, the started with the makeup. The organization I was to have meeting with were all humans, even if they weren't, I'd still have to make this deal. My mind had flashback of the board meetings the previous day, and I had to encourage myself to shut those people up.
They insulted, disregarded and disrespected me, at the meeting, saying I was not good enough. I clenched my hands into a fist at the thought of this.
I'll prove them wrong and get this most awaited deal no matter what it takes. I finished my makeup and fixed my earrings and necklace. Wore my wrist band and shoe as I left my room with my bags in my hands.
My hair was tied into ponytail almost touching my butt, it got really longer and hard to take care of lately. I should be visiting the saloon soon, cause this hair stress has added to my pregnancy stress.
I felt those three cut things kick all at once which gave me contraction and a groan escaped through my lips. If they were out, I swear I would have given them antitussives. I got down through the grand stairs to the lounge to see Bianca already sitted and waiting for me.
He seemed engrossed in a conversation with mum and mum seems fond of his silly jokes. I smiled. She looked less paler and was getting much more beautiful by the day. "Good morning ma'am!" Bianca greeted acknowledging my presence.
"Good morning!"
"Good morning mother!" She had a bright smile on her lips staring at my baby bump which has now gotten more noticeable, especially in this dress.
"Good morning my Love, you seem ready!" "Yes I am!" I smiled slightly. Mum was helpful to me last night. At least for the first time in a long time, I had a shoulder to cry on at my weakest point. I sauntered to her, for her usual good bye kisses which I always do give her even if we're fighting.
"We have an hour to the time and surprisingly, the president of the Comigo inc has decided to sign the contract himself. Isn't that the biggest news?" Bianca sounded so excited. "He said the signing of the contract would be done in his office!" Bianca continued,
"That man is the toughest person I know on earth. Make sure to charm him with your beauty Madam, I heard he's now single, he just got divorced!" Bianca stopped talking when he met my furious gaze. "I'm so sorry ma'am".
We got into the car and headed for Comigo inc where the meeting was to be held. Arriving at the large organization, which was ten times larger than Alpho inc, no wonder it is said to be the best. I noticed four bodyguards by the entrance of the organization. This is too much for a normal citizen of London, as they didn't have the time to carry much bodyguards around.
This Comigo boss must be as crazy as Alex, I chuckled. Stepping out of the car, I and Bianca headed for the organization, I didn't mind if Falcon wasn't here with me. Infact I would have tagged him, a psycho, or a freak if he was present.
"You would have told me, you didn't want me to come along yesterday!" I met his gaze. "Falcon!" His name came as a whisper and he smiled. I couldn't tell what I felt at that moment, Falcon's presence changed everything. I felt relaxed and happy. His presence suddenly calmed my anxiety.
"Are you ready?" His face was brighter than ever, taking in deep breaths, I nodded a yes.
He held my hands and took me in. The receptionist took us through the elevator, as we got to the last floor. These floor looked empty, having just a black door which held a guard in black suit. We stood before the door that was immediately opened by the guard.
Falcon's grip on me tightened as he gave me a reassuring smile before stepping in. I thought he'd let me go but strangely he didn't, which had me wondering why. This was a business meeting not a child's play.
But all those thoughts vanished the moment I saw who was sitted on the seat there.
