I was getting ready for the day in my closet when I heard Roza getting out of the bathroom and leaving the room.
"Rose wait."- I said to her and she turned towards me. She raised her eyebrows in a questioning manner.
"Rose, don't you think that you are taking this silent game too far."- I said to her but she still doesn't say anything and I run my fingers through my hair getting frustrated. This girl sure does know how to push my limits I thought.
"I think we should sit down and talk."- I said to her.
"About what?"- She said crossing her arms over her chest. Thank God for making her reply if she stayed silent this time I will definitely lose control.
"About us, about our relationship."- I said walking towards her.
"There is no us."- She said and started walking out of the room. But I caught her arm and turned her around. She looked towards me where my hand was holding her arm and then looked at me, gesturing me to remove my hand but I am not going to do that if I want her to listen to me.
"Rose, please give me five minutes, I promise I will not take more than five minutes of yours. Please."- I pleaded her and she shrugged my hand and sat down on the couch in our room.
"I am waiting and you already wasted your few seconds."- She said which broke me from my trance. I walked towards her and sat opposite to her.
"Rose firstly I want to apologize; I was too harsh on you on the other day. I am sorry for that. I know the circumstances we got married doesn't do me a favor. But we are married now and I think we should try to make it work. I know it's not going to be easy and you are new to this community doesn't help either but at least we should try to make it work after all we have to spend our whole life together."- I said.
"I can't."- She said.
"Why not?"- I asked her.
"Dimitri answer me why you married me?"- She asked me.
"I married you because you are my soul mate."- I replied.
"How do you know I am your soulmate?"- She asked me.
"Because Yeva told me."- I said to her.
"Exactly Dimitri you believe in what Yeva said. You married me because of Yeva not because of you love me."- She said.
"But we can try and fall in love with each other."- I said and she snorted.
"I believe in getting fallen in love first and then getting married. And we are from different worlds doesn't help either in our case. Our thinking is so different that we are going to clash at every point and we don't know each other at all."- She said.
"That is the thing I am trying to say that we can try to get to know each other and try to understand each other worlds."- I said.
"It doesn't matter if we try to know each other and after a year or two Yeva said that I am not the one for you then what, you do whatever Yeva said and you will get married to the girl she chooses for you then what about me."- She said.
"First of all Yeva will not do such a thing because she knows that you are my soul mate and it's not like she selects a new soul mate for me every year. This is the first she said something in that matter. She chooses you and said to me that I have to spend my whole life with you. And do you really think so low of me that I choose different girls as my wife?"- I asked her.
"It's not that Dimitri, I am worried about my future."- She said.
"Come with me, Roza."- I said and stand up offering my hand. She took my hand hesitantly and I take her to my study. I opened the door of my locker where I put all the papers of my property.
"Here are all the papers of my property, select one."- I said to her.
"What? Why?"- She said confused.
"You are worried about your future and I want to ensure you about that."- I said.
"Now I ask you Dimitri Belikov do you think so low of me that you think I want your property or your money?"- She said angrily.
"It's not that Roza, you are misunderstanding me I want that so you can be sure about your future and try with me without worrying about anything and it will give me peace of mind knowing that if I am with you or not your future will be secured."- I said cupping her face in my hand.
"Now will you please select one of the properties, for me? Please."- I said looking into her eyes and she nodded.
"I will take this one."- She said and handed the papers of the property to me.
"This is the cheapest property I have. Are you sure you want this one?"- I asked her and she nodded.
"Okay. I will register this property with your name but it will take a month or two for registration."- I said to her. "Now can we forget all the past things and start getting knowing each other."- She nodded again.
"Promise me you will try with your heart, Roza."- I said.
"I promise that I will try to work our relationship with all of my heart."- She said.
"Thank you, Roza."- I said and kissed her forehead.
"But you are always working, how we get to know each other that way."- She said and I chuckled.
"Don't worry I will find a way. You are more important than work."- I said and started walking out of the study but I turned and said before walking out- "and one more thing, get ready you are coming with me to my office today."
RPOV
I was just walking out of the room when Dimitri stopped me and said we need to talk and I didn't even guess the result of the talk will be so productive. He asked me to choose a property which he is going to transfer on my name. I choose my bakery from his properties, I came here for my bakery but I do not know why I feel like I should not except it in this way it feels like I am here just for his money that why I said no in the first place but then I think that he cheated us so I think I should accept it and it's not like I am stealing from him, he offered it and I accepted it but everything comes with a price and in this case he makes me promise that I will try working on our marriage and get to know each other and I never back out from my promises and it's not like I am going to fall for him in these one or two months.
When he left the study I went downstairs for breakfast and sat on the table opposite to Dimitri.
"Mama, I am taking Rose with me to my office today."- Dimitri said to Olena and Sonya's folk fell from her hand.
"You never took anyone with you to your office."- Sonya said.
"I am surprised too but I think it's a good idea. Both of you need to spend some time together so that you will get to know each other and taking her with you will help in that matter."- Olena said.
"But he never took anybody with him."- Sonya said.
"Well, some changes are a good thing."- Olena replied.
"I have a question."- Victoria raised her hand and everybody looked at her. "If Dimka is taking Roza with him does that mean that I do have a chance to work at our company?"
"Vika I am taking Roza so that we can spend some time together and get to know each other and not because I am going to make her work, so."- Dimitri said.
"Okay, I got the point."- Victoria said and her shoulders fell.
"Cmon, Rose go get ready."- Olena said to me, I nodded and left the room.
I changed into black skinny jeans and white shirt which I tucked into the jeans and I wore black leather jacket above my shirt, I wore minimal makeup and black wedges and left the room. Dimitri and I climbed into his car and left for his office.
"You look good."- Dimitri complemented me.
"Thanks."- I replied pushing a strand of hair behind my ear and rest of the journey pass in the silence.
We reached his office, and the building of his office was so magnificent, the building was made of glass from the outside and at the top of the building 'Belikov Enterprise' in Italics was written.
"Wow."- It slipped out of my mouth.
"I am assuming you like the building from your expression."- Dimitri said from behind me.
"Yeah, it's… it's so…. big. How many floors are in it?"- I asked turning and looking at him.
"It's the headquarter of Belikov Enterprise and it contains fifty floors."- He replied.
"Fifty?"- I asked him surprised.
"Yeah, fifty. Shall we?"- He said to me gesturing towards the entrance, I nodded and I thanked the God that he doesn't offer me his hand.
We enter the building and I saw Eddie there at the reception.
"Good morning, Mr. Belikov."- He greeted Dimitri and his eyes got wide when his eyes fall on me but he covered his expression immediately.
"Good morning Eddie. How are you?"- Dimitri asked him.
"I am good, Mr. Belikov."- Eddie replied.
"Eddie, meet my wife. Rose Belikov."- Dimitri said putting his hand behind my back.
"Hello, Mrs. Belikov, it's nice to meet you."- Eddie said and nodded towards me.
"It's nice to meet you too, Mr. Mazur."- I replied and Dimitri looked at me confused.
"I didn't think I told you the last name of Eddie."- Dimitri said. Shit, shit, how can I slip up like this? Stupid Rose.
"Yeah, you didn't it's written on the nameplate on his desk."- I replied calmly.
"Yeah, I totally forget that."- Dimitri said. Whoops, that was close.
"Let's go to my cabin."- Dimitri said and we entered the elevator and he pressed 28. His cabin was simple but it showed that it is a cabin of multi-billionaire. There is a well-organized desk with expensive leather seats and on the left wall there are bookshelf and expensive paintings on the wall, there is a coffee machine on the right side, the wall was painted with pastel color and there is a couch on the right side of the cabin.
"Uhh, where do you want me to sit Dimitri?"- I said and he looked at me confused.
"You have a company and I think I should wait outside until you are finished."- I said and looked behind him where a slim girl with blonde hair and grey eyes wearing a white shirt, black pencil skirt and black blazer and black pencil heels was standing.
Dimitri looked behind him and a grin plastered on his face.
"Roza, she is my personal assistant, not my client. And I already told you that the things that belong to me also belongs to you and if I want to meet some client I will meet them in the meeting room or any other room you do not need to worry about that. You can sit wherever you want."- He said.
"Ohh."- I said.
"Hello, Mr. Belikov, Mrs. Belikov."- The girl standing behind him said.
"Rose meet my P.A Miss. Alexia Szelsky. If you want something and I am not here you can tell her, she will help you."- He said and the girl nodded.
"So what is the schedule for today, Alexia?"- Dimitri asked the girl.
"Sir, first of all, there are files which need your attention and I already placed them on your table. Then there is a meeting related to the new project in the afternoon."- Alexia said.
"Okay then just let me know when the meeting starts. You can leave now; I will call you if something came up."- He said and Alexia left.
"Rose, I need to go through some files until then you can do whatever you want, you can read the books, those are some interesting books."- He said gesturing towards the bookshelf and I scrunched up my nose.
"What?"- He asked.
"Reading is not my cup of tea."- I replied.
"Okay. What about I finish these files as soon as possible and then we will talk and go for lunch in the afternoon?"- He asked.
"Okay." - I said.
He sat on his chair and I walked around the room looking at the paintings. After that I sat on the couch scrolling down my facebook id, after an hour, I got bored. Sometimes around that hour I feel Dimitri's eyes on me few times.
"Dimitri?"- I said and he looked at me. "I am getting bore, can I take a tour around?"- I asked.
"Yes, Roza you can, take Alexia with you."- He said.
"No. I will go on my own."- I said.
"Roza, you may get lost around here and Alexia knows the ways around."- He said back to me.
"Do you think I am a child who will get lost and if I do get lost I will find my way and if I don't then I will call you but I don't need anyone with me."- I said and crossed my hand in front of my chest stubbornly and he sighed.
"Okay, just call me if you need me."- He said.
I entered the elevator and pressed the ground floor button. Actually, it's a good thing he brings me here, now I can talk to Eddie. I walked towards Eddie's desk when I reached the ground floor.
"Hey! bro."- I said.
"Rose, how are you? What are you doing here? Why didn't you call us?"- He said.
"Woah, woah one question at a time brother."- I said.
"How are you, Rose?"- He asked.
"I am good. How is everyone at home? How is Jill? How is my niece or nephew?"- I asked.
"Everyone is good. Jill is doing fine, the baby is doing fine. Why didn't you call us? You scared us when we didn't receive any call or message from you. I had barely stopped Mason; he was coming to your house."- He said.
I told him the whole story. "So he put a tracker on my phone and banned me from going outside alone. I don't want to take any risk that why I didn't call you guys and remember that I won't be able to call you in the future."- I said.
"Okay. I can't believe he will do something like that."- He said.
"Forget it and I have news which will make your day better."- I said.
"What is it?"- He asked excitedly.
"Dimitri is going to register our bakery in my name. It will be done in one or two months, then I will come back home."- I said happily.
"Just like that. How?"- He asked confusion shown all over his place.
"No, not just like that. He wants me to work on our relationship and don't worry nothing is going to happen between us."- I said.
"Yeah, just be careful."- He said and then his phone started ringing.
"Yes. Okay."- He talked on the phone.
"Who is it?"- I asked when he put his phone down.
"Belikov was calling me to ask about you, you were out from past one and a half hour and you were not picking up your phone so he called me and he really sounds like he cared. Alexia is coming to take you."- Eddie said.
"Oh, my phone is in silent mode and I didn't even notice it's been an hour and a half."- I said and then the elevator door opened and Alexia walked out of it.
"This way Mrs. Belikov."- She said to me and I walked into the elevator with her.
When I was in the elevator I was thinking what Eddie had said about Dimitri caring about me. It's so confusing sometimes it feels like he really does care or sometimes it feels like he just wants to work our relationship to maintain his reputation in the community.
"Where were you?"- Dimitri asked when I entered his cabin.
"I kind of lost and I forget the floor number of your cabin so I went downstairs to ask Eddie about the floor number and I was just coming up when you called him."- I replied.
"Why didn't you call me? Why didn't you pick up your phone?"- He asked me.
"My phone is in silent mode and I can solve all of my problems by myself that why I didn't call you."- I replied.
"Roza, you know you don't need to do everything by yourself, sometimes it's good to ask others for help and-" – he said but I cut him off in between.
"Can we just leave it here?"- I asked him.
"Okay."- He said and started walking out of the cabin.
"Where are you doing?" – I asked.
"Did you forget about our lunch?"- He said and raised his one eyebrow.
"No."- I trailed off.
"You did."- He said smirking.
"No, I didn't."- I argued back.
"Yes, you did. Why don't you accept it?"- He said smirking.
"Why would I accept it when I didn't even forget it?"- I said.
"You are so stubborn, Roza."- He said. "I am getting my hands full."- He murmured shaking his head.
"I heard that."- I said.
He took me to some fancy restaurant and our seats were in the secluded area. The waitress put water on our table and handed the menu to us. I opened the menu and surprise surprise the menu is in Russian. I put the menu aside.
"You decided so quickly."- Dimitri said.
"Yeah, I think I will have a glass of water."- I said.
"What?"- He asked.
"The menu is in Russian, I am not able to understand a single word."- I replied.
"I thought you understand Russian as you never ask me why I call you Roza."- He said.
"Vika told me about that."- I lied. I know what Roza means because of the name of our bakery.
"I am sorry if I know I will take you somewhere where the menus are in English."- He said.
"It's okay."- I replied.
"I will translate it for you."- He said.
"But it will take time."- I said.
"You didn't need to worry about that."- He said and explained the dishes to me and we placed the order and talked about each other.
He told me that his father is his ideal and how he wants to be like his father. We talked about our likes and dislikes and I get to know how much he like western novels. I told him about my degree in culinary science and business management. After lunch, we went back to his office and he went to the meeting.
"Let's go. It's time to go home."- He said after coming from his meeting and we went home and I didn't even know when I fell asleep until he woke me up.
"Roza, wake up. We have reached home."- He said shaking me and I noticed my head was laying on his chest and his hand was on my shoulder. I jolted up.
"I am sorry."- I said.
"It's okay and I don't mind."- He said.
"How was your day?"- Olena asked when we entered the house.
"It was fine."- I replied.
"Yeah, it was fine except that Roza got lost in the office and forget about our lunch."- Dimitri said in a teasing tone.
"No, I didn't forget about the lunch."- I said turning and looking towards him.
"Yes, you did."- He said walking one step towards me.
"No, I didn't."- I said taking one more step towards him and narrowing my eyes.
"Yes, you did."- He said.
"No, I didn't."- I said.
"Yes, you did."- He said and our staring competition starts and we broke from our trance by hearing someone clearing their throat. I noticed that we were standing so close; I backed away from him instantly.
"What was going on here?"- Vika said wiggling her eyebrows at me.
"Yeah, I want to know too."- Karolina said joining the conversation, crossing her arms and I saw a slight smirk on their faces.
"Nothing was going on."- I said and left for our room, I heard them chuckling.
I changed into my comfortable clothes and went downstairs for dinner. In between the dinner Yeva said.
"So what's new today?"- Yeva said. And I saw Dimitri biting his lip stopping himself from laughing and I thought that's it.
"Nothing is new and nothing is going on and I didn't forget about the lunch."- I said.
"I was talking about the dessert."- Yeva said and that was the breaking point for everyone, everyone burst into laughter except Sonya. I blushed in embarrassment and lower my head to hide my blush and started eating my food.
After dinner everyone went to their room.
"You look cute when you blush."- Dimitri said to me.
"I do not know what you are talking about."- I replied.
"You do know what I am talking about."- He said.
"Shut up and I do not want to talk, I want to sleep. I am tired."- I said and fake yawned and lie on the bed pulling the duvet over me. He came and lie down beside me under the covers.
"So Roza I was thinking that you should come with me to my office tomorrow too."- He said.
"Good night."- I said not giving him reply to the office comment, thinking that he got the idea about my answer which is obviously no.
He chuckled and said- "I was kidding Roza, I do not want you to get bored because I always stay busy at work. Good night, sweet dreams."- He said and kissed my hair. His kiss fluttered something inside me but I ignored it and went to sleep.
