10 Bad day

After hanging you the call, Ellie tossed her phone aside and took a deep breath.

The one thing that Ellie always thanked God was for blessing her with such supportive and loving parents.

Harry and Judith never forced any of their decisions on Ellie. Yes, they always guided her and showed her the right path but they always let Ellie take the final call.

When Ellie decided to move out, Judith and Harry were quite supportive even though they didn't want their little daughter to move out. But since she wanted to try something different, they supported her anyway.

Growing up with such loving and supportive parents was what made Ellie broad minded and more blissful. The positive family environment she grew up in was a reflection of her positive and fun loving character.

She never complained about anything, in fact, her parents had taught her to embrace everything that she has without complaining.

Her father, Harry Miller was a professor while her mother Judith Miller worked in an old age home. They didn't have a lavish or extravagant life but Ellie would have never wished for something better than what she had. They had a very sweet little peaceful family. They would go on frequent family outings, have at least two meals together, talk about how their day was, share their thoughts, they used to do the chores together and always supported each other in every possible way.

Scratching her head, Ellie sighed when she saw her messy living room.

Looking around, Ellie murmured, "Maybe tomorrow." before walking towards her bedroom to take a long afternoon nap.

...

Stewart mansion.

Running her fingers through her hair, Ava took a deep breath before stepping out of her room.

When the helper saw Ava, she rushed towards her. "Madam let me help me set your hair."

Stopping her, Ava politely rejected her, "There is no need for that Mura, you can go."

Mura pursed her lips and hesitantly said, "But madam said you have to tie your hair into a bun."

"Can't I even style my hair like I want to? Does everything has to be the way my mother or others want?" Ava asked.

When Mura lowered her head, Ava sighed and walked away.

Climbing down the stairs when Ava saw an unfamiliar man sitting on the couch, she pursed her lips.

This wasn't the first time her mother had arranged for someone to see her. This also wasn't the first time her mother had given her dozens of instructions and asked her to follow them so that she could impress the men which her mother thought were perfect for her.

When the man saw Ava, he quickly got up and approached her.

Extending his hand for a shake, the man smiled. "It's a pleasure meeting you Ms Stewart."

Giving him a weak smile when Ava completely ignored his hand which was waiting for hers, the man awkwardly retrieved it back.

"My name is Nathane, I am sure that aunt Rebecca told you about me."

"Maybe she did. My mom mentions a lot of names daily so I am not very sure whether she mentioned yours or not. Though your name sounds familiar but I don't really remember." Ava's words were clear enough for anyone to understand that she wasn't interested in Nathane. Infact, she wasn't interested in any of the men that her mother introduced to her. They were all too good to be true and felt very unrealistic.

Ava tried to sound as rude as she could to get rid of them but some men like Nathane were either too dumb to feel her disinterest or too shameless to ignore it and continue trying to start a conversation with her.

"Well, it's alright. I am sure that you won't forget who I am after today." When Nathan flashed a sly smile, Ava had to try very hard to suppress her inner desire to roll her eyes at him and smack his head against the wall.

When Ava did not say anything, Nathane added, "It seems like Ms Stewart woke up on the wrong side of the bed today."

Giving him a sinister smile, Ava said, "I don't know about the wrong side but I surely woke up to have a really bad day."
