The digital numbers on the bed side clock indicates that first light of the day would start in an hour.

Colin hitches himself down the bed, although it's Sunday he decides to walk towards 'Half Moon Bay', a very popular destination among boating and fishing enthusiasts and one of his favorite places in Melbourne, which is only about 30 minutes away from where 'Essence of Love' lies. And not only because he has a yacht there, Colin actually favorizes the quietness of the crescent shaped shoreline of 'Half Moon Bay', so it's a perfect place for his weekend's routine.

He sits near the edge, enjoying the feel of the calm morning air while slidding into his morning meditation, reminding himself as he often did of the components of affirmative prayer.

When he returns to his consciousness, the sky is still midnight blue in the west, however, the eastern sky is bright heralding the arrival of a beautiful sunrise. The blue eyed brunet has been meditating for over half an hour. His inner voice let him calm and confident about the day, and many things he hopes to get done.

Back to his house from his morning meditation, he decides to snuggle back into his bed with 'Knuckles', his black Doberman dog, which is still asleep on the large space of the bed. The young tycoon falls asleep again until he's awake with moist on his mug, after adjusting his view he realizes it was only Knuckles licking his face, trying to wake him up.

'Hey cookie monster.'

He whispers, petting on his dog's skull and playing with his ears. He wants to stay laying all day long with Knuckles since its his free day, however, he has to run couple of errands, recalling Liam's talk last evening.  He must move fast to save himself from the unwanted marriage before its too late

As the morning of the new day comes, I drag my tired ass out of the house by sheer force of will. I haven't slept well, I'd just laid awake most of my night thinking about everything happened in this short period of time, and how my peaceful life has turned upside down.

From the auction and losing all our belongings, my soon marriage from someone I barely know, the opportunity I have lost to be in Vienna orchestra and now this guy from Miss Fox.

Thinking of all the things I should have said and done but I didn't. It was my first time thinking of someone else but Colin.

There was something about him that I am still not sure how to take. I've seen bigger men than him in my life, and I've seen smaller. But there is some kind of power about him that I guess threw me off.

Still his dark intense eyes, chasing me and disturbing my peace of mind. I don't know how to put this into words, the least I can say that, I've always loved Colin ever since my childhood, but since yesterday my rosy world exploded into small atoms like the big bang the moment I run into Mr.Arrogant, and it gives me an awful feeling.

I'm torn between Colin and my supposed love for him and the new guy. It feels kind of wrong by thinking of the stranger whilst my engagement is going to be held tomorrow evening.

A voice deep inside keeps telling me it's only a crush, my subconscious keeps reminding me of Colin and my father's promise. Now I don't know what to do. The spa journey should have been only for preparing myself for the ceremony, but it gives me anxiety instead.

As soon as the sun rised, I made up my mind and decided to put aside my sudden, strange feeling for the stranger and go out, willing to buy a new violin. I don't want to lose every opportunity coming my way, solely of my incapability to play on another stringed instrument than Mahogany, so at least I'll be able to resume what left of my semester.

Still Jessica's talk ringing in my ears, maybe she's right in some point of our discussion last Friday, maybe as she said, I've some sort of Atychiphobia when it comes to playing on another instrument.

Breakfast is over after I've got a hurried one with no taste in it although the dining table was decorated with delicious and colorful plates make mouth watering, but I was in hurry heading to downtown to inquire and seek for a suitable violin.
