Chapter 24: Operation Mitchie Part 1
Mitchie went to work early to start on her project. Then her brother came in after a few minutes.
"Hey Mitch…" Jason entered her office and kissed her temple. "How are you?"
"I'm fine. Hey, so you are going to accompany me at the opening of the model house of our new real estate project next week." Mitchie reminded her brother.
"That… right…" Jason became unsure.
"Jase… I asked you last week and you already said yes." Mitchie knew her brother well.
"Mitch, I'm really sorry. It's just Candice has a doctor's appointment on that day. It was just scheduled right after I said yes to you so I am telling you now that I can't come. Sorry." Candice is her brother's wife where he has a daughter and another baby on tow.
"Alright. It's just it's going to be quite pressuring since dad's going to be there." Mitchie pouted.
"Hey, you're going to be fine okay?" Jason assured her.
Mitchie nodded. "Okay."
Then a man entered the office and asked for Mitchie.
"I am Mitchie. What is it?" Mitchie asked the man.
"We have a delivery for you… You just have to sign here and you can have your packages." The man gave her a form and Mitchie signed it. Then the man signaled his people and a couple of men in white shirt entered the room carrying different sets of white flowers, in bouquet and in a vase. Then the last man gave her a very big bouquet. Then they left the room.
Mitchie smiled. She really love white roses.
"Who gave these? There is no name." Jason asked then he got the card on one of the bouquets and read the content. "Mitchie, have dinner with me at the View Palace. I'll see you tonight."
Mitchie smiled and told her brother that, "It's from Tristan."
Her brother rose one eyebrow. "Tristan huh? Right, the View Palace! That is your favorite restaurant."
Mitchie just smiled at her brother and stuck out her tongue playfully and continued to enjoy her flowers.
"With all these flowers, and with that smile pasted on your face, I say you are coming to the dinner, right?"

Mitchie dressed up well that night. A black spaghetti strapped dress with a red ribbon bow on the waist. She got her coat and headed for her car and drove to her and Tristan's favorite restaurant, The View Palace. The place had already stood way before they had stared dating. And when they did dated, it was one of the fancy restaurants that they prefer to go back to.
Mitchie arrived at the restaurant on time. She was approached by a waitress.
"Can I get you a seat ma'am?" the waitress asked.
"No. I'm with someone." She replied and went on without the help of the girl. Then she looked for Tristan.
She walked a few tables but she can't find him, instead she saw the one person in the world that she doesn't want to ever see again. Shane.
She can't believe it. She walked past through him and that was when it hit her. It wasn't Tristan who sent her the flowers. It was Shane. "Shit!" she mumbled to herself. Then she felt an arm on her shoulders. "Don't touch me." She said and turned around looking at him.
"Hey…" Shane started.
"What are you doing here?" Mitchie asked disgusted
"To have dinner with you…"
"And what made you think that I would want a dinner with you?"
"I was going to give you more flowers but…"
"Flowers? If I had known it were all from you, I wouldn't have accepted them." She said and stormed away the Palace.
Shane followed her. "Mitchie!" he called.
Mitchie ran to her car.
"Mitchie please! Let me explain!" Shane called to her.
Mitchie stood before her car and faced Shane. "Explain? What is there to explain Shane? Huh?" fresh tears started to roll down her pretty face. "You know what? Why don't you just go back to Santorini, Shane and never come back?!"
Shane went to her but stopped at his tracks when she threatened him of throwing her right high heeled shoes to his face. "Mitchie, please, let's talk. I'm so sorry!"
"No! You know? Before you say sorry, you must look like sorry first before I talk to you again!" she called and threw the shoe at him and entered her car and started the ignition. Shane went to her window and begged for her to stop. But she didn't budge and sped off.
Shane was left there on the street, with a shoe of the girl who changed him and helplessness.
--
Mitchie can't believe that Shane has the nerve to show up to her. She parked her car and ran up to her penthouse. She was still crying.
She sat on a high chair by her bar and cried with scotch on her hand. Then she looked through her kitchen and saw the thing that she needed. She got five porcelain plates and headed to her porch. She threw the first plate on the ground and it broke, "Ahhh!" she screamed releasing her anger.
Then she continued to break the other four plates and sat on the floor crying. Why do you have to come back Shane? Why?
