My body is in complete soreness and so do my legs as I could feel the throbbing muscles all over my now sweaty body. I stink of sweat and I grimace in disgust at myself. Oh my, I need a shower. I haven't been going to the gym for a long time due to the busy schedules and having a little exercise here and there sure did something to my unproductive body. Rosa inviting me with her had made me go to the gym today in which I was left in complete remorse. And I never regret coming with her as much as I regret it today. She keeps whining at me because I refused to accept her offer at first. I mean, can't she tell that I'm lazy? and it's the weekend, no one wants to spend their only free time going to the gym! or at least not me, and she asked me the night before. In the end, I gave up and with a happy scream of her that almost make my ear deaf, she hung up on me and of course, after thanking me multiple times. I sighed at her childish behavior. The next day, I had woke up extra early
I was expecting to see Rosa still sleeping beside me as I was woken up brutally by the sudden coldness sipping through my skin, the once comforter that covered my whole body now is tossed to the side of the bed leaving me with nothing and exposed to the cold air. I look over the room in blurry as my vision is adjusting to the light. What time is it now? Once realizing that I was alone in the room and not at my house, I let out a tired breath before deciding to check on the time. Oh, I hate this. I close my eyes to think of today. I really don't want to see him, Not even in a thousand years. I don't wish to even cross paths with him if I were to choose my fate but I'm tired of him trailing after me like prey. I need to get this done. • • • I keep looking for Rosa around the big and empty house leading to one way from another which almost makes me lost in the confusing hallways. Don't judge me, I don't come here often, only when Rosa asks me. I stood in the middle of the big kitc
I get dressed shortly after the encounter with Vincenzo and the rage inside me which I don't know why It still there. Honestly, I don't know why I'm angry in the first place. Isn't like what he said is wrong. In fact, I am troubled. Only if I could just let this out to someone but it wasn't as easy. Sighed. My thought shift to meeting him today. This is so hard. I should have gotten ready now and made a move. I've been dragging this out so many times, he wouldn't be so happy if I skip today. Only God knows what's coming to me if I didn't see him today. That crazy psycho is unpredictable. I texted Rosa to inform her of my leaving but she seems busy as it shows one tick to the message that I send, indicating that she's not yet received my text and her status shows offline. I don't bother to pack all my stuff to bring it with me as I will be staying here for a little while. Once prepared, I take a look at myself one last time before leaving Rosa's room to take my leave carefully as
I spend a night at Rosa's place and I was relieved to find out that Vincenzo is not staying around tonight or I don't know how am I going to act around him. He makes me act like a teenage girl with unstable hormones. Rosa said that her father had asked him to accompany us for the night but due to important work he couldn't stay any longer than a day. My mother come home earlier than expected because she said that work end quickly as it went well. I'm glad that finally, I'm able to see my mother after a whole week of not seeing her. We spend the night together, just the three of us. Although the house seems quiet despite the lack of people around but the two people whom I know by heart are enough to light up this quiet place. I excused myself after long hours of talking and watching a movie that was only displayed as background music. Pretending to be sleepy because, if I don't do that they will not let me go anywhere and for once I need a break from all the gossiped that they have
The next day comes as quickly and although I only get to sleep for 6 hours I woke up with a fresh sensation surrounding me. I look to my side to see if Rosa was still sleeping on my side but I find it empty and unoccupied. This has somehow become my habit right after I woke up to see if someone was beside me or not. My only guess is that she was sleeping downstairs. I shrugged the thought off before quickly getting myself out of the bed only to be pushed back by the sound of the door creaking open on my left. As quickly as the sound makes it to my ear my head turns automatically to look at the subject of the unknown presence. I let out a squeak of surprise by him almost naked standing in front of the bathroom door followed by the smell of his man cologne making its way out of the bathroom that's been occupied just a couple of minutes ago and going through my nostril. Did he use up all his shampoo or what? "What are you doing here?" I almost half-shouted at him if not because of m
I sigh in contentment when finally my skin comes in contact with the water flowing down my entire body making me shiver in coldness when I realize that I have yet to turn the water heater. Switching it on with just one click I continue cleaning my once sweaty body and get my business done. I took my time in the shower before I step inside my room and get changed into something comfortable. A plain big t-shirt with a short come along with it. The best stay-at-home fits ever. I was contemplating with myself for about another half a minute whether I should put on my bra or not because honestly, I wasn't feeling like wearing it right now, especially when I'm at home but the thought that I wasn't alone was the problem here. The t-shirt is big enough to not stick to my body
I look at Luigi moving around his office with one hand holding a glass of whiskey in it, whiles in a while twirling its content before bringing it up to his lips.His shoe tapping against the recently polished tiles floor annoyed me to no end but I keep silent and watched him carefully from where I was seated."He will attend tonight's ball while his partner has some business to do- he will be attending alone, I want you to dig everything I wanted to know out of him. Do whatever you have to do, seduce him, get him into bed- I don't care what but all I wanted to know is what he is up to and where he hides all this time-" his body turn in my direction, eyes already moving up and down my attired before frowning, I almost rolled my eyes but keep it to myself and instead answer him in a monotone."I will get ready when I'm back and headed there before he did"Luigi didn't look convinced and narrowed his eyes at me."No I will ask one of my men to take you home and drop you off, wear the dr
I never asked Rosa what her family did because I respect her and her family's privacy and I never asked my mother about any of this but when a piece of the puzzle connects, it makes me dizzy.Who is Vincenzo? and why is he involved in all of this?For once I didn't want to believe what my mind started to believe.I never agree or like doing what I'm doing but when I discover all the truth about all these men, all these kinds of people. It always makes me sick.Politics, Drugs dealer, Human trafficking-List all of it, I was forced to deal with it. Why? because once upon a time I was good at being a puppet for Luigi and now I regret ever coming across all these people. Him.As a child, my parents were always busy and rarely spent time with me due to their work, at night I always listen to them bickering about everything, sometimes even at dinner.They thought that I was a kid I would never understand what they are talking about but as I grew older in my teens year my curiosity about al
Maybe this is a terrible idea. The loud rumbling sound from the sky above accompanies every drop of water pouring onto the ground where I'm seated. Looks like it's going to rain for a while. No one's around at this hour, and here I am, eating instant noodles with soda. I know it's not the healthiest dinner option, or maybe it's way past dinnertime, but I'm in a tight spot. As long as my stomach is filled with something that won't keep me awake all night, I'm good with it. I should leave now since the shop is about to close, but that's my problem – always unprepared. I forgot to bring an umbrella, and unfortunately, I spent all my money on food, so I can't buy one now. I curse under my breath at my stupidity. I should've just ordered takeout and stayed home, but now I'm stuck here, contemplating whether to make a run for it. My apartment isn't too far from the store, but maybe it's better to wait until the rain stops. I don't want to get sick now. The guy working here looks at me
"No Rosa I can't" I tried to explain to her the reason that I couldn't attend today's dinner with her family because I was busy but like usual she wouldn't even listen to me.My sigh fills the whole space inside my room while my hands keep roaming around the file lying in front of me. It was an awful sight for me the mess displayed after my eyes."But Angela! Everyone is here and they want you here!" I move away a little as her loud voice pierces my eardrum."Yes, I know just... I'm busy-"It was true that I'm busy but the real reason is still because of the one person who I know by heart will be there and probably... will be there.I couldn't see him. Not physically. Not only because of the night when we shared a kiss but also because of the night when I met him at the ball.I don't know how my reaction will be if I ever see him at this moment. It was all so messy and chaotic inside my head. I couldn't put one to one puzzle and gather all information in just a week-well 5 days to be
My body whirled around, trying to get away from him. Feeling uncomfortable with his action and the shock that I'm having right now. The shock that he did this.He places his lip on mine before sliding his tongue inside my mouth making me flinch away from that but his grip on my body makes it hard for me to move even an inch away from his towering body. I feel something touch my tongue and a weird taste of something that I couldn't figure out. The action was so sudden and fast before he finally shift his head away."Isn't this what you are trying to get hm?" He said while groaning, hand still roaming around my body, moving dangerously down touching my bare thigh.His touch sent a shiver through my whole body, especially in between my thigh. I feel something tingling down there and something stuck in my throat.When his nose brushed against my nipple and I almost let out a sound at the contact. My body flushes in heat and heavy breath left my slightly open mouth. Taking as much oxygen a
