Cupid
The blaring sounds of the alarm clock woke me up. I groaned in pain as I reached toward the bedside table for my phone to turn the alarm off.
Fuck, my head is hurting. A night full of partying would surely be much more fun if it didn't come with hangovers.
I looked at the phone with squinted eyes and let out a sigh of frustration when I realized that I had to be at work today.
Today was Monday. My least favorite day of the week, similar to the majority of people. Monday means that I had to go back to my dreaded work and finish unending tasks.
As I closed my eyes and prayed for time to move slowly, I felt a cold arm slide over my abdomen, and that's when I realized that I wasn't alone in the r

Gillian I looked at my reflection in the mirror and let out a nervous sigh. I smoothed down my pencil skirt and made sure that there weren't any loose threads in my outfit. Today was my first day in my new workplace, and I needed to make a good impression. Since I was too nervous looking at myself in the mirror, I didn't realize the warm arms that had made their way around my waist.I jolted in surprise when I saw my boyfriend's reflection in the mirror along with mine. I glanced at him swiftly and placed a kiss on his chin. "Jared, why are you up so early?" I asked in a soft voice. "Weren't you studying until late last night?" He hummed and pressed his chin against my shoulder. "Yeah," he said in a tired voice. "But I woke up early because I wanted to see you go." I smiled. "You don't have to do this anymore, Jared. I want you to get as much sleep as you need." He groaned and placed a kiss on my neck. "I

CupidAfter recovering from the initial shock of finding out that my new assistant was a beautiful woman, I went back to confirming appointments on my laptop.We were engulfed by awkward silence, but I didn't care. I didn't want to work overtime today, so I can't waste even a couple of minutes talking with this new secretary.Cyrus cleared his throat to air out the awkwardness. "Right," he said, clapping his hands and walking to where I was."Let me introduce the two of you to each other. Cupid, this will be your new secretary, Gillian. Gillian, he will be your new boss."Gillian bowed her head. "Pleasure to work with you, sir.""Yeah, yeah," I just waved her off and went back to work.The room had turned silent once again, not until Cyrus' phone went off. He looked at the caller ID and cursed under his breath. He then turned to the two of us with an apologetic look on his face. "Sorry, I have to take this impo

Gillian I impatiently tapped my foot on the floor as I waited for the coffee to finish brewing. This was sir Cupid's third coffee of the day, and I had been going back and forth between his office and the first floor because the coffee machine in his office was yet to be replaced. Today was already Thursday, but the new coffee machine hadn't arrived yet. For some reason, this cup of coffee seemed to be taking longer than usual, and I was getting more and more impatient by the minute. As I waited for the cup to finally get filled, I heard someone chuckle from behind me. I turned around and saw a handsome man and a beautiful woman looking at me with amusement. I stood there with my mouth agape while looking at the two of them. Damn. Is everyone in this office supposed to be attractive? I quickly straightened my back and bowed my head in respect. "Sorry, were you going to use the coffee machine? Don't worry. I'll only brew one cup." The woman smiled and shook her head. "No, go a

GillianToday was only my fifth day at work, but I already feel like I've been working here for an entire year. It was a good thing that today was Friday, meaning that I'll finally be able to rest for two days after this day ends. I just finished organizing the last patient's data, and I was now waiting for sir Cupid's current online consultation to finish. I looked toward the clock and saw that it had been more than thirty minutes since the consultation started. Usually, consultations only last up to 20 minutes, so I was already getting sleepy while waiting for them to finish. I rested my head on one of my hands and tapped my fingers on the table, hoping that time would just go faster. "Gillian!" Cupid screamed. I didn't even realize that I had already fallen asleep. If it weren't for sir Cupid calling my name, I would have dozed off into deep sleep by now. I quickly got up from my chair and smoothed out my clothes. Afterward, I went out of the room and greeted sir Cupid with a p

GillianI closed my eyes for a second to clear my vision, and when I opened my eyes, I didn't see the familiar silhouette anymore. I nodded to myself. I must be seeing things because of what sir Cupid told me earlier in the day. There's no way that Jared would be here. He said that he was at his groupmate's house for a project. "Gillian! You coming?" Claire called out for me. I snapped out of my trance and looked in the direction of the voice. Claire, Liam, and the others were already seated down at the table, so I quickly hastened my steps and followed after them. I sat down next to Claire, and only then did I realize the three new faces on our table. I made eye contact with all three of them, so I smiled politely while bowing my head. "And who might this be?" one of them asked. "Oh, right. You guys haven't been introduced to each other yet. Guys, this is Gillian—sir Cupid's new secretary. These three are Olivia, Rain, and Emma.""Hi guys," I smiled. "Nice to meet you all.""D

GillianI was tired out of my mind when I arrived at our small apartment. Claire and the others were still in the club, drinking the night away, so I just slipped away from them when I felt like things were getting too hectic. As much as I liked their company, I just opted to go home since I still have to cook breakfast for Jared tomorrow. It was already fifteen minutes past midnight when I arrived at our apartment since I had a hard time calling for a cab in front of the club. It was pitch-black when I entered the apartment. I moved slowly so as to not make any noise just in case Jared was already home. I peeked inside our room and saw that it was empty, making me release a sigh of disappointment. When he said that he might go home later than me, I thought that he wasn't being serious. But turns out he was. However, it's alright. I know that he has an important project that he's working on. I shouldn't pressure him too much. I took a quick shower and changed into my clothes. I t

GillianSir Cupid is ignoring me. He hasn't been giving me tedious work like last week. He hasn't been asking me to make his coffee. Well, the coffee machine finally arrived over the weekend, so I guess that's the reason. But! It's still very obvious that he's ignoring me because he avoids meeting my eyes any chance that he gets. It was only last week when he made it a pact to drown me with work and annoy me with his ideals, but now he's just ignoring me? That's fucking great! That's actually what I've wanted ever since I started working here! However, even if sir Cupid isn't being annoying like usual, I still can't be completely happy. It would have been great if only sir Cupid was ignoring me, but Jared has also been ignoring me for the past three days! I don't know whether I was being pushy the last time that we talked, but I was just concerned about his well-being. I mean, is it not normal to ask what your boyfriend has been doing when he comes home at 3:00 in the morning?I

Gillian The week passed by very quickly, and it was now Friday, the last day of the week designated for work. Usually, at this time, I would be much more relaxed since the weekends are coming, but I am more anxious than usual because of what sir Cupid told me yesterday. I finally finished arranging my bag, so I slung it over my shoulder and got ready to go out of the office. As I went out, I thought that sir Cupid would have already gone home, as he always went home by exactly 5:00 PM every day. However, I was surprised when I saw him sitting down on his office chair, carelessly twirling around. When he saw me get out of my office, he stood up from his seat and placed his hands inside his pocket. "Oh, great. You're there. Let's go," he said, playing with the car keys in his hands. I looked at him with raised eyebrows. "Umm, why are you still here, sir?" He stopped in his tracks and turned around to look me in the eyes. "What do you mean? Didn't I tell you yesterday? We're go

It has been exactly eight months since Axel and Cupid called each other to share that their respective wives were pregnant, and it has also been eight months since they’ve been seeing each other every month. Axel sighed as he packed his bags once again.“Are you ready, love?” Rosalind called out from the bathroom.Axel smiled and tried to sound cheery. “Yes, love. I’ll just load the bags in the car.”“Alright, I’ll come down after peeing,” she called out.“Stay here while I load our things, love. I’ll go back here to come and fetch you.”Rosalind flushed the toilet and moved out of the bathroom. “Wait, let’s just go together,” she walked toward her husband. She held onto her back as she walked since her stomach had gotten so big that her back failed to support her by itself anymore.Axel clicked his tongue and shook his head when he saw her struggling to walk. He placed their bags down on the ground and walked over to where she was. One hand held onto her back while the other held on

Axel excitedly dialed Cupid's number, ready to tell him about the unexpected news. As much as the two of them try to deny it, they both know, deep inside their hearts, that they treat each other as very good friends. "Yo," Axel said into the phone. "I have something to tell you." "Axel!" Cupid greeted in an equally jolly voice. "I was just about to call you too. I also have some great news." Axel became a little suspicious when he heard that Cupid, too, had some good news, but nothing could really take away from his happiness after the news that he had just heard. "You go first, then," Axel presented since he is in a good mood. "Nah, man. You go first. You're the one who called me first. Go ahead," Cupid responded. "No, you." "No, you go first." "No, YOU go first." "No, you're the one who should go first." They endlessly said to each other. In the end, Axel sighed in frustration. "Let's just say it at the same time, alright. Then we'll explain it individually afterward." "Fi

"Did you get it?" Rain excitedly said as she went out of her office. Liam looked up from his laptop and focused his attention on Rain. "Get what?" Rain sighed in frustration. "The invitation!" "What invitation?" he asked, confused. Rain walked closer to him and went behind his back. "I told you to check your personal email more often. Come on, open up your account." Liam quickly opened up his personal email account and clicked on the latest message. He read the contents of the email. "A high school reunion?" "Yeah," Rain nodded her head. "Let's go together." Liam smiled. In the course that they have been dating, he could feel that Rain had changed for the better. She had gained so much confidence over the past few months, and Liam feels proud knowing that she had grown to love and appreciate herself even more. "Yeah, let's go together. I also miss some of my high school friends." Rain smiled. "That's settled, then. Let's also buy our outfits together." *** Rain and Liam t

"This is it," Cupid removed his hands from Gillian's eyes, revealing a spacious yet cozy-looking infrastructure filled with antique designs. "Our new bakery." Gillian looked at the infrastructure in awe, and suddenly got teary-eyed when she realized that they were going to be having a new chapter in their life. Cupid chuckled as he observed his wife's teary eyes. "Why are you crying? This is supposed to be a happy event, love." Gillian wiped her tears with her sleeves and tried her hardest not to cry. "I know, love. I'm just so proud of the two of us." Ever since Gillian and Cupid had been married, they started thinking more about their future. They both knew that Cupid's investments would be more than enough to provide for their everyday needs, but they still would want to have a steady, stable income where the two of them can work together. And as someone who enjoys cooking and baking quite a lot, Cupid suggested that they open a cafe near Briana's restaurant. He thought that

No matter how many times Axel wakes up to Rosalind in the morning, he still can’t get over how beautiful his wife is. He smiled and leaned closer to her face, tracing her features from her eyes down to her lips.“Axel, stop that,” Rosalind swatted his hand away and scooted farther away from him.“Love, stay here,” Axel whined and pulled her closer, peppering kisses all over her neck.“I’m tired, Axel,” she grumbled and closed her eyes to get more sleep.“Why, my love? Didn’t you get enough sleep yesterday?”Rosalind clicked her tongue and glared at Axel. “Of course, I’m tired! You fucking ruined me yesterday.”Axel smiled with pride. “But you liked it, right?”Rosalind rolled her eyes and turned away from Axel, trying to hide her reddening cheeks. "Whatever. I'm going to sleep."Axel chuckled and placed a chaste kiss on top of her shoulder. "Rest well, my love. I'll be cooking some breakfast.""Mmh," Rosalind hummed, willing herself to sleep once again.

Olivia and Dallas gazed back and forth between Liam who was on stage and Rain who was sitting right next to them. Olivia couldn't help but let out a small chuckle when she saw Rain's flushed face as other people also started teasing her. "How the fuck did he know what I was going to wear?" she asked. Dallas shook his head. "I went with him. He definitely didn't know. He just grabbed the first sweater he saw at Target. Must be destiny or something." Rain knew that Dallas was joking when he told her about destiny, but she couldn't help but blush at the thought that they might really be destined for each other. Liam, who saw Rain from a distance, was also shocked to see that they were wearing the same sweaters. He smiled to himself as he watched Rain getting teased by her other co-workers. 'I knew that going to Target would be a good idea,' he thought in his mind. "Good evening, everyone!" Liam finally said into the mic. The crowd cheered and clapped their hands, ready to star

When Liam told Rain that he would show her how he truly feels, she thought that he was just joking. There was no way that the guy she has been liking for the past seven years would suddenly show interest in her and make the effort to prove it.However, much to her surprise, he wasn’t lying. Ever since that day, she would always see her favorite coffee on top of her desk. On the weekends, flowers would suddenly show up on her doorstep. And during the end of her shift, Liam would always be waiting for her to take her home.She arrived in the office and saw yet another coffee, accompanied by two blueberry muffins, on top of her desk.“Damn, girl. I’m jealous of this admirer of yours. You’ve been receiving free breakfast for the past week!” Olivia saidRain chuckled and handed Olivia one of the blueberry muffins before taking a sip from her coffee. Olivia smiled in delight before taking the blueberry muffin from Rain's hands. "Do you already know who this admirer is?" she asked. Rain st

“I like you, alright?” Rain bursted out.“I’ve liked you for so damn long that it’s killing me inside! I know that you don’t see me that way, and I also know that you have something going on with Claire, that’s why I hate myself for even thinking about you—for thinking we could be together. So, stop doing this—whatever this is that you’re doing. To you, this might only be an act of friendship, but to me who has liked you from the beginning, I am starting to misinterpret your actions. It’s so fucking difficult for me to act platonically with you if you keep doing these things. So, please. Stop. I’ll also stop bothering you from now on.”Liam intently listened to every word that Rain said. He never expected this, to be honest. To him, Rain was like an honest friend that always had his back. She would always be there to comfort him whenever he felt down, and even when he had problems with Claire, she’d always be there to listen. Looking back on it, Rain must have suffered a lot because o

Liam felt giddy as he parked his car in the parking lot. Even if he didn’t get much sleep last night, he still somehow feels energetic. It’s like there’s something, or rather, someone he’s looking forward to seeing to in the office. Rain, on the other hand, had a full night of sleep but she still felt like she didn’t get enough rest. She placed her things down on the table and sat down on her chair with a deep sigh. Olivia saw this, so she walked towards her and placed her hand on her shoulder. “Hey, you alright?”“Mmh?” Rain looked up at Olivia and smiled. “I’m great, Liv.”Even if Rain smiled, it somehow didn’t feel genuine. “Did everything go well yesterday?” Olivia asked, wondering if something bad happened during the dinner, causing her to act like this.Everything went well. Too well, if you ask Rain. Liam and her had the best conversation they ever had, but it only reminded her that their relationship stops at that. She hates herself for thinking that the two of them could ac
