VANI-POV
I had another sleepless night again and today is the 5th day in a row this week. Usually, I experience such condition during exam week and this is totally absurd. What is wrong with my body?
I scolding myself while standing at my balcony as I saw a shooting star passing by and immediately without a second thought I said "I wish to know who is my secret admirer, I want my life constantly filled with peace and quiet, I want Ivan to be less demanding boss and can cook for himself, hope that he doesn't scare my male colleagues whenever I'm talking to them and I wish I can sleep properly tonight".

STAR-POV
The star shouted "Girl, I'm a shooting star not a god that can create miracles"...
That night, the star landed on an unfortunate warlock's head. He literally screamed blood hell and wrongly casted another spell again.

IVAN-POV
I was silently standing behind her to hear her mumbling. I think she was making her wish towards the shooting star. мой котенок [1] can be adorable at times and I heard every single word that she said about me.
The next morning
For the first time in three months, I prepared breakfast for both of us. It was worthwhile as the look at her face was priceless. We enjoyed our quiet breakfast and headed to the cafe together. The entire day was not as easy as I thought.
It really was hard to restrain my enthusiasm to beat people with my pipe or not to glare at any men that tried to engage in friendly conversation with Vani.
I'm trying to be gentle boss to her as she wished for and it not as easy as I prepared breakfast for both of us this morning.
These were not so difficult part as I need to plan to disclose her secret admirer's secret. I felt butterflies in my stomach. I never felt like this before. I decided that I will disclose the secret to her after I'm confident that I have won her heart. Therefore, I postpone my plan to realise her first wish.

VANI-POV
First, I had my beloved sleep back. Second, Ivan made breakfast for both of us. Third, he did not push or be a mean boss today. My life utterly rocks today and I love the shooting star for it.
I even made crazy jokes and bets with my hero obsess friend. Life is so cool till I met my worst nightmare again.
I was surprised with a bouquet of 100 red roses being held in front of me by a familiar blond with striking blue eyes.
Today, I met the guy that made me to hate male population 2 years ago. I met Francis Bonifay again. He is the famous playboy of my college; whom I dump 2 years ago for cheating on me with my ex-housemate. He claimed that I'm too rigid and never allowed him to do any fun activities. This thankfully was true in my case, as I able to differentiate between love and lust from him.
How dare he show his face again today and what made him to come back today? I was thinking aloud to myself.
Francis said "ma rose jolie, comment vas-tu ... tu m'as manqué ... je vous ai manqués tellement ... vous revenez dans ma vie à nouveau" [2] smiling ever so confidently in front of me.
I had billions of questions flooding in my head till I spotted Ivan not far away from me and as if on cue again, he rushed to stand beside me like a tiger guarding its cup.
I realised that I need settle this as soon as possible so I told Ivan that I can handle him and I need to talk to him in private. Ivan said "I'll be in my office if you need anything" with that he left us alone.
Francis tried to hug me and I evaded him. After 1 ¾ hour of so called sane conversation, we concluded that I will not accept him back as my boyfriend and lied to him that I have Ivan Braginski as my boyfriend.
Francis told me that "Je ne vais pas renoncer à vous, je vais récupérer votre confiance et le cœur"[3]
I said "my heart already belongs to Ivan Braginski and I advise you to leave before my boyfriend decides to break your adulterous neck"
Francis was leaving the cafe and I saw Ivan in front of the reception. I noticed that both men exchange thunder bolts via their eyes and Francis left the cafe with rage.
Did I saw Ivan smiling like I first saw him...or is it just my imagination playing tricks on me again?
The rest of the day was less chaotic...except for excited Alice F. Jones was bombarding me with questions while Ivan was observing me with concern.
I'm just dying to go back to the comfort of my bed and sleep like no tomorrow.

IVAN-POV
I was planning for the perfect day for моя женушка[4] till I was interrupted by her damn ex-boyfriend. I still recognize the face that caused pain to my beloved. I shall make himpay for what he has caused her.
I told Vani to call me if she needed while I hid myself by the stair case.
Which fool would leave his loved one with a her ex-boyfriend alone?
I heard the entire conversation and I also heard her confession to Francis. My name seems to have nice ring to it when she says them with her lovely voice. I knew she wasn't serious about being in love with me but the thought alone made my heart burst with happiness. I quickly rushed to the front counter as I predicted their conversation would end soon.
I saw Francis walked pass me as I glared at him.
I thought everything was settled for the day and we can resume back to our peaceful life till I receive a call from Natalia today. She is coming here tomorrow...
I mentally told myself that "дерьмо, я резьбовым если вани узнает о своем прошлом"[5]
