"Seems like our time is up for now, remember to go through today's work and don't forget your assignment. If you perform well on this then I can proudly assure you a spot on the graduation seats." Their lecturer announced to the students as they all packed up their books and laptops and other equipment. Ivan took out his phone from his pocket and clicked on messages. Fishing out Vienna's name, he clicked on it and started typing. "Hey, are you busy at work? Can we meet up? I'd like to know if you're free to talk." As he sent the text, he made to return the phone to his pocket but it chimed and he immediately raised it back to his face. "Just got out of surgery, I could use a break. Let's meet up at the burger place close to the hospital if it's fine with you." A smile worked its way to his lips as he texted her back. "I'll be there in thirty minutes tops, see you in a bit." He tucked his phone back into his pocket and rose to his feet but a hand pushed him back to his seat force
The street was crowded with people of all heights and sizes. Ivan pushed his way through them and walked into the burger place where Vienna was waiting for him.She raised her hand and waved at him the moment she saw him walk into the place. A big smile played on her face as he walked over to her. He smiled back at her as he made his way to her table. "Hey there beautiful." He said with a smile. He leaned closer to her and placed a kiss on her lips before sitting himself down on the chair opposite her. "Oh I know I saw you a few days ago but I miss you so so much." She whined like a baby. Ivan let out a soft chuckle. "I know right? I should have tried to visit you earlier but I was so busy. I really have missed out on a lot of things plus, the school is extra busy planning our convocation ceremony and I'm so so stressed out by it." He groaned. She placed her hand on his with a serene smile on her face. "I understand what you're going through, I've gone through it too but I assure
He didn't know whether she was going to be embarrassed by his proposal or not so Ivan did his best to keep it on a low key. Vienna's eyes stared at the ring with so many emotions mixed together and her heart raced like crazy. "If you'd like me to keep it away for now, I promise you that I understand and I will do just that--""What? Are you crazy? Put what away?" She questioned him with wide eyes. Pushing her chair back, she rose to her feet and bellowed. "Everyone! My boyfriend is proposing!" Ivan was shocked by her sudden action and he felt even more awkward when all eyes fell on him. Some people stared at him and Vienna with admiration while others cheered them on. Vienna shrieked excitedly as Ivan, who felt like that was the only reasonable thing to do, fell on one knee and opened the box again while lifting it closer to her. "V... Uh... Will you marry me, Vienna Fawn?" He stuttered a little. She let out an excited shriek as she danced for a moment before screaming yes about
"A young man was seen yesterday entering a car known world wide as the property of the Wayne family, every single person is wondering who he is. Perhaps, could he be the missing heir that wind has been blowing past our ears about for a while now?" A young man wrote on his page before posting a video of Ivan's back as he entered the car plus extra shots of the car alone. The internet was flooded with posts like that and different pictures of Ivan, except no one was quick enough to get a photo of his face. Mr Andrews scrolled through the countless numbers of posts all having similar title and others that were just tagged "hash tag, heir of Wayne" "Why won't anyone show me a picture of his face?!" He growled angrily as he threw his phone across the room. He rubbed his face and heaved a heavy sigh before relaxing into his chair. He heard a knock on his door that brought him to sit upright as his eyes traveled quickly to where the sound came from. The door pushed open and a face that
The sky was as clear as crystal with the sun shining down brightly at each body that passed the busy road of the street.Ivan had woken up from Ned at exactly six that morning and got into his sports outfit to head out for a jog. Trevor too had insisted on going with him and Ivan made no attempt to argue. Their bond kept getting stronger every single day that whoever actually saw them and didn't know their history would immediately believe that they were children of the same mother if not both parents at least. Test week was coming up soon and every single student needed to read up and freshen up their brains especially those in their final year like Ivan. Ivan had missed a lot, but he wasn't agitated or scared for the test week that emerged rather quickly. Whenever he did study, he came out as the top student in his department, and whenever he didn't study, he still came out as the top student in his department. A level of intelligence that wowed a lot of lecturers and students
Trevor seemed lost in her beauty as his eyes glimmered in such a way that Ivan had never seen before. This reaction though just brought a smile to Ivan's face. He tapped Trevor on the shoulder slightly and the young lost boy finally looked back at him. "Do you mind if she tags along?" Ivan arched his brow as he asked. "No! I don't mind at all! Please join us, we are…" Trevor cleared his throat. "We are only just getting started."Ivan smiled. If he wanted to spoil his game for him, he would have mentioned the fact that Trevor had just complained about running for too long but he chose not to be that kind of big brother. "You know, I was just telling my brother here that ordinary water is the best thing to take after a short run and you ought to drink light especially if you are still going to continue the race." Trevor stated as he opened the door for Janet. Ivan, being the last to leave the convenience store, rolled his eyes at Trevor's words but didn't argue. "Oh really? Then
The time felt frozen as Williams stared at Ivan and he thought he might choke from the silent gaze of the little boy.Thankfully, his life was saved as the kid finally spoke up. "My name is Williams. Nice to meet you uncle ."Ivan felt a wave of relief wash over him in an instant. Finally! The kid had spoken up. "Yes, it is nice to meet you.""My mom says we'll be living with you forever in a few months time, will I have to call you dad then?" Williams asked.Ivan looked up at Vienna for a second not knowing how to respond to the boy's question. Would it be wrong if he asked him to call him dad? He couldn't force the boy to do what he didn't want.Ivan shook his head. "Only if you want to." The boy's small lips curved into a smile. "Will you be getting married to my mom very soon?" Ivan gave him a nod in response. "Are you okay with sharing your mom with me?" "As long as she is happy." Vienna knelt next to both of them now and her grip around Williams small hand tightened a little
A frown sat on Ivan's face as he heard the words that left Alfred's mouth. Why couldn't he just have a moment of calm and peace? "What is the problem? I am kind of in the middle of something." Ivan said to him. "Your aunt has--""Ivan?" His mother called out to him. "Yeah?" He removed the phone from his ear and turned around to face her with a smile on his face."Everyone is ready, are you busy?" She asked after noticing the phone in his hand."Oh no no no!" He shook his head. "Not at all, I'll be there in a few seconds." He said with a smile. She gave him a nod with a gentle smile before walking away to join the rest who were already waiting inside the car for him. He watched her walk away and enter the car before returning the phone to his ear. "Listen Alfred, I am very very busy right now, there is no way I can leave what I'm doing right now at least not with any excuse. My family is getting together for the first time in a very long time and I can't afford to be the one to r
