Sweet Caramel

He slid the papers to her, looking solemnly to her beautiful honey brown eyes, she stared down at the papers and back at his cold expressionless face.

"What's this paper for?" She asked not wanting to read out of it.

"It's a document to seal our deal, so sign it" she hesitated with lots of thoughts running through her mind.

Maybe it isn't a good idea and it wasn't too late to say no.

The cold morning breeze swept past Elizabeth's face making some strands of her hair cover her eyes, she angrily pulled her hair as it was almost the tenth time that was happening.

She walked into the school's cafeteria to get a cup of coffee to get her body warmed up a bit as she sat quietly at the end of the cafeteria sipping her tea and going through her phone's gallery.

The photos of Edde Loxley, a young handsome British businessman, rule her gallery. She literally does not have her own photos, just Edde and it sucks that she couldn't meet him for at least ones.

Well he is a business man and he is always busy with work and other things businessmen do, rumor has it that Edde Loxley is a full time playboy and she doesn't still care about his reputation, she just wanted to meet him.

"Hey! Not again!" Mel said as she pulled her phone from her hand, she knows how obsessed her besties was with Edde and it pisses her off all the time "You can't seriously still be falling in Love with a man you haven't met before, it's crazy and I'm becoming to suspect you have a mental issue, It'd be better we go see a psychiatrist before…"

"Shut the fvck up I am fine, you won't just understand what Edde is doing to me, you have a boyfriend and I don't because I am patiently waiting for Edde" Elizabeth Said as Mel laughed out making people turn to her staring at her like a crazy person.

"I guess Elizabeth Albie will die a virgin" She said, trying to take Elizabeth's coffee as Elizabeth yanked her hands off.

"You are so toxic Mel, just wish me luck for ones"

" I have always wished you luck babe, hope you meet your back stage lover soon… Let's go, we have a class in five minutes" Mel said as they walked hand in hand to the class.

Edde Loxley sat in front of his computer in a very large luxurious office, he had been busy going through business proposals from different companies which he rejected almost all.

"Broke ass companies" he muttered as he shut down his computer system as a call came in, he picked up the telephone and placed it on his ear.

"Sir, will you need anything?" That was his P.A Nelly over the phone.

"Get me a cup of cappuccinos please" he said as the call ended, just immediately the door opened revealing his dad, Nelly would have just told him to expect his dad.

He was sure his dad had come to remind him to get married and keep the business professional.

Edde Loxley is 25 and was in no way ready to get married yet, getting married means not having time for his business and lesser fun and he wasn't ready yet not now not in five years time.

"Good afternoon Dad" Edde greeted, staring blankly at his dad expecting the worst. He was already used to hearing his yelling about getting married and being more responsible but it seems that was far from why his father came.

"Well son, I came to tell you that I am going to Paris to see my mistress and I am not sure of when I am coming back so take care of yourself" His dad said surprisingly to Edde.

"Is that all? Like that's why you came?" Edde asked to be sure as his dad chuckled.

"What else were you expecting? See Edde I am tired of repeating myself about marriage, if you don't wish to get married then remain a bachelor and keep on fvcking all the women in New York" his dad said and walked out of the office.

Mr Loxley became a Casanova ever since the death of his wife who died ten years ago when Edde was fifteen, Mr Loxley being heart broken from the death of his sweetheart decided not to marry again with the fear that he might lose any woman he gets married to.

He never wanted a lonely life for his son and he never wanted his son to follow his step of Casanova life, he wanted his son to be happily married but Edde has refused to settle down.

His P.A Nelly walked in with his coffee, she knew that she wasted much time and that was because the cream finished.

"I am so sorry for the delay sir, it was…" She tried saying as he stood up, cutting her short.

"There is no need to explain further, you already delivered late and I need to go, so have the cappuccino yea, and take this files with you, record them into the system it's really important, Make sure you don't make a mistake because it can cause a whole lotta damage" Edde said and retreated out of the office.

He hopped into his Rolls Royce and drove into the city of New York, he needed to calm down and have some drinks with his friends as it's been a while he had a good time, he had tried to be serious with work this past weeks and he was already fed up.

He picked his phone and dialed Wyatt's number which was answered almost immediately.

"What's good man? Are you back from work? What do you think about having a drink?" Wyatt said from the other end of the phone, Edde could hear the loud sound of music from the background and he could tell that Wyatt was in a bar or maybe a club.

"Where are you now, I am coming over"

"Come to Dela cruise bar at the mainland, that's where I'm at, are you coming with…" Before he could complete his sentence Edde ended the call.
