Cupid

“Gillian,” I said, trying to keep myself together.

“You still love her, hmm?” Cyrus said, circling around the love of my life.

“It’s obvious, really,” Maeve intercepted. She side-eyed Gillian. “But I don’t understand. She doesn’t look like she’s worth fighting for.”

“I agree,” Cyrus said. “You’re much more of a catch than she is.”

I could see the sadness in Gillian’s eyes, and I felt in despair, knowing that I couldn’t do anything.

“Let her go, Cyrus,” I said. “I already told you—I don’t love her anymore, so don’t involve her in any of these.”

“If you don’t love her, then it would be easy for you to let her go, right? If you really don’t love her anymore, then it wouldn’t be a big deal for her to die right now,” he said in a cold voice.

I sighed and looked up to the sky, feeling desperate. “Why?” I couldn’t help but ask.

“Hmm?” he hummed.

I looked into his eyes and clenched my jaw. “Why are you even doing all of this? What the hell did I do so wrong?” I burst out.

“Woah, Woah!”

    Gillian“Remember, Gillian. Don’t fret. We’ve already deposited the money, and we’ve also promised to help his family, so he’ll most likely keep the promise,” Rosalind said.I nodded my head. “I know. I’m not afraid. I’m willing to do anything for the plan.”“Good,” she nodded her head. “But if worse comes to worst, we’re just right behind your back.”Today was the day of the plan, and we were already at the meeting place set by Cupid. We were hiding behind some tall trees while Cupid was out in the opening. Cyrus had just arrived, and I was dying to find out what they were talking about.When I saw that Cupid was already being aggravated, I took that as the go signal to start walking in their direction.Cyrus and I made eye contact from a distance, then he smirked while looking at Cupid. The next thing I knew, Cupid had already turned around, shaking his head and urging me to go back to the hiding spot.However, I kept on walking until I made it beside Cyrus. Cupid called out my name

    Gillian“Are all the bags in the car already?” Cupid asked as he closed the trunkI nodded my head and went to the passenger seat. “Yeah. Everything’s settled.”We both entered the car and started driving to our destination. I turned on the radio to liven up the atmosphere for the long drive. “Do your parents know that we’re going to visit them?” I shook my head. “Nope. I was planning on surprising them.”Cupid chuckled while ruffling my hair. “Your parents are going to be frazzled. We haven’t even contacted them ever since we made it to the Faerie kingdom.”I smiled sheepishly. “I kind of forgot. We were just so busy with plotting the plan that it didn’t cross my mind anymore. They must be very worried right now.”He nodded his head. “Let’s hurry up so we can show them that we’re okay then.”After a long drive, we finally made it to my parent’s house. We haven’t even made it out of the car when my mom bursted out of the door and started fussing around. She quickly called for my dad

I thought that he was joking at first since he asked so casually. I jokingly agreed with him that day, but I was surprised when he took me wedding dress shopping the moment I woke up. He continued to take me to different appointments all throughout the week, and now we’re here.I sat down on my seat and looked around the reception area. We decided to have a small gathering in a secluded garden, and it couldn’t be more beautiful. We didn’t invite many people—just those who are dear to us.My family was sitting at a table near to us, and I could see Ren overloading his plate in the buffet area. Rosalind and Axel also came, d

    Nothing could be more unfortunate than having the same anniversary date. Unluckily for Axel and Cupid, it just so happened that they picked the same day of the month to get married—the 28th.“I’m so excited to go to the beach! I haven’t been to one for such a long time,” Rosalind gushed as she packed her bags. Axel mustered up a fake smile while grumbling under his breath. “Stupid Cupid.”One time, when Cupid and Gillian visited the castle, Axel mentioned that he and Rosalind were planning to go on vacation for their wedding monthsary. Cupid, being the curious lad that he is, asked about the date of their marriage, to which Axel innocently answered. So, that is how they came to the point where the two couples would be celebrating their milestones together.“Love, there’s a much nicer beach nearby our castle. I can take you there if you’d like,” Axel coaxed, hoping that Rosalind would change her mind. However, Rosalind shook her head as she zipped up her suitcase. No need for that! I’v

    The word “shock” couldn’t encapsulate the feeling that Liam felt when Cupid told him that he’ll be taking over the company. At first, he couldn’t even believe it. Cupid and him never really interacted much. The only time he was able to talk to him casually was when Gillian came to the company.Everything feels so surreal. Yet here he was, sitting on the very chair that Cupid used to sit on, getting ready to meet his very first client.He’s nervous, anxious even. He wonders if he could get the job done as well as Cupid. But as the clients came in, and as he spoke to them one-on-one, he began to feel a little bit more at ease. He still thinks that this isn’t an easy job, but matchmaking his coworkers when he was a mere employee definitely helped in making him feel more experienced in the job.Time flew by quickly, and it was now his break time. He sent out his last client for the morning and leaned back against his seat, closing his eyes for a second to take some rest. However, his rest

    That’s right.Rain has been harboring feelings for Liam for the longest time—probably even longer than Claire ever did. She and Liam entered the company at the same time. Actually, they went to the same high school together. Although it seems as if Rain was the only one who remembers it.She has always been a little rough on the edges. She liked hanging around with the same crowd, and she never really liked bringing attention to herself. That’s how she always lived—on the sidelines.But when she first met Liam, she suddenly wanted to be in the spotlight. Liam has always been the popular type. Like the typical leading man you see in movies, he was part of the football team, hung out with the popular crowd, and his name was known all over the school. However, unlike those cliche characters, Liam actually had depth. Aside from excelling in sports, he also excelled in his academics. He wasn’t afraid to speak his mind, and he always called out his friends whenever they were crossing the l

    “What the fuck, Claire?” Liam said as he pushed Claire away, roughly wiping his lips with his sleeve.Claire tried to go in for a kiss once again, but Liam placed his hands on her shoulder and gently pushed her away. He heard a small thud from outside of the door, but he was still too surprised with what happened that he didn’t pay attention to it anymore.“I thought you wanted to talk,” Liam sighed out in frustration.“I did!” Claire exclaimed. “But it seems like you’re not listening to me.”“That’s why you decided to kiss me?”“Because you keep dismissing every word that I say!” she retaliated. Liam massaged the bridge of his nose. “Why are you even talking to me in the first place when you haven’t even apologized to Gillian?”“Gillian! Gillian! Why does everybody keep telling me to apologize to Gillian?” she bursted out.“Isn’t it obvious?” he asked incredulously. “It’s because you wronged her. That’s what decent people do when they do something wrong—they apologize.”“What did I

    “Are you not coming with us?” Olivia asked as she packed her bags. Some of her co-workers invited her out to go to the club, and she was wondering if Rain would also like to come. Rain shook her head. “Sorry, rain check. I have somewhere to go to today.”Olivia smirked. She heard Rain and Dallas speaking to each other yesterday and knew that they had plans on going to dinner together. “It’s fine. Have fun, okay?” she smiled.Rain nodded her head. “Yeah, you too.”Olivia went on ahead with her other co-workers while Rain continued fixing her things.“Hey,” Dallas said, walking up to her. “You ready for that dinner?”Rain shook her head and chuckled. “It’s only 4 o’clock in the afternoon, Dallas. I thought our reservation’s not until 8.”“I was just asking,” Dallas sheepishly said. Then, he brought out a card of some sort from his pocket and gave it to Rain. “Here. Just meet me here at 8 o’clock sharp. Sorry I can’t come pick you up. I have to go get some groceries before I go.”Rain

    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.
