7Fuck, I should've never asked that question. I feel my hands getting clammy all of a sudden when I don't even have clammy hands and my armpit feels like sweating underneath this blazer. Damn it.I pull my shit together as I look at him and his eyes makes me lose it. His eyes can't let me focus. His answer still bothers me but I have to act like he's not making me blush from my cheeks up to ears. God, can Benedict see me getting red from where he's sitting?I gulped.Act professional Thea. I scolded myself."How do you..." I paused then clear my throat, I feel like the need of having small placards on my hand to keep myself busy with it but I'm not holding anything but my stupid phone.I look up to him and his grinning as he placed that forefinger under his nostrils."How do... Ummm... you.... chill out... after a busy schedule or... Uhhh... after a tiring day?" I stammer on my words.He smile. "I've already answered that.""Right." I shyly speak.Oh geez he's making me blush even mo

8I stare at my laptop and I'm almost half way through finishing my article. For some reason, my mind couldn't stop thinking about that curly man named Benedict Styles and how mesmerizing and striking he is. He has this huge impact on an individual just by being himself and that's crazy. Even the thoughts of him still send shivers down my spine.Though he's not with me anymore, I feel like he's still here. I know it's plain stupid. But I still feel his green eyes looking at me from the corners of the room, like he's observing me from afar. And the things that happened inside his office a while ago are still stuck in my head.Focus Thea, you need to focus on the article not the person about the article.But on the bright side, I'm glad that tomorrow's Sunday, I have another day to finalize and edit my article before I could finally pass the finished full story about Benedict Styles to my boss.Argh, even his name gives me thrills.A part of me would be extremely happy if my article wou

9"Hey man." PJ greeted him and they began to shake hands as a greeting.My world literally stopped when Benedict was shaking hands with PJ. Shit they know each other. Shit he's friends with Benedict. Shit he might think that I'm stalking him. Shit?But Benedict kept his eyes on me after shaking hands with PJ and asking him what took him so long. He sat down on the couch just on the spot right across me. He blinks, and I swear to God he was blinking really slow, while he kept glaring at Khaleel and PJ who I assume are his friends"Why do you know each other?" PJ asked while he points at me and then at Benedict.Khaleel smirks in the corner. "We always know that Ben always gets the beautiful women first."Benedict chuckles. "It's not like that lads." He turned his face back at me. "Is this for the article again miss Thibault?"I slightly gaped and shake my head quickly."Wait. Article? What's that supposed to mean?" PJ looked puzzled when he asked."Is she some kind of a reporter? A p

I looked up and wasn't really familiar with this building or this street or maybe it was just too dark. The engine begins to fade and Sebastian looks at me over his shoulder."You can let go now." He instructs as he glares at my arms still wrapped tight around his body and my cheeks were still pressed against his back.Shit."Sorry." I quickly pulled myself away shyly.I got off his motorbike with a little help from him and he gets off next. I look up at the tall building and I couldn't tell how floors this building had."My helmet?" He calls out."Oh. Right. Sorry." I quickly tried to take it off but it seemed stuck. "Shit it's stuck."He chuckles and stands right across me a little too close making me dizzy with his perfume. He smells too good that he makes me wanna dump my nose on his chest."There's a button." He says and it clicks. "Before you take it off."I pre

I say to him as we head back to the front door of the building.Sebastian smiled and said, "Me too Thea.""And you still owe me $10 for cursing a lot a while ago." He adds.I laughed softly. "You are really a cheater. But fine, since I am a fair player. I will pay you that."He nods. "And you owe me pizza too. You lost the bet a while ago."I face palm and just laughed while shaking my head. "Damn. I owe you a lot tonight."We bid goodbye to the security guards who were so cool about what we just did and then we got back to his motorbike. I look up to the sky and noticed that we have been playing golf for hours since the sun is about to shine. We haven't even had any sleep at all and this night was just spectacular. It was less worrisome and just plain simple. I had a great time with Sebastian even

You should be thankful thay I applied here. Yes Victoria keep those words coming. I love it too. Thank you, you're too kind."I will have this published on the next issue for sure.

13I dragged myself to the mall to buy myself some groceries since I have no stocks left at home. It was already almost eight in the evening when I finished my little celebration with Kylie and Jonah.I was still bothered about how I was going to ask Benedict about having a photo shoot with us. I mean, even the thought of it is already impossible. I still don't get it why Veronica asked me to do this. Why me? Why do I have to ask him? Who the hell am I? I'm just an intern. Argh! It just makes me mad, thinking about being neglected bg Benedict. Plus, his sexy secretary named Coral hates me.I shove some foods into my cart as I kept on looking around for more cheap ones that would help me survive the next weeks. Lately, I have been on tight budget since I was running low with my money. I just wish that I could pay for all of these inside my cart or it would be too embarrassing that I would have to choose on what to leave and what to buy.By the time I saw a two customer line cashier, I

14Me, Thea Thibault, sitting on the passenger seat inside Mr. Benedict Styles' Hummer together with him in it.What was I feeling? I don't know. I couldn't explain a single bit of it. It's a mix of feeling nervous, scared, happy, anxious, and constipated. Yes, I feel like I'm having constipation and it seems like my hands are getting clammy and my armpits too!Just breathe Thea. You're just mentally having constipation, it's not true.The roads were packed with cars and we were slightly stuck in traffic for a bit. I wanted to ask him, if he even waited for me to leave the store or if was it just pure coincidence that he was still around. But then I think I swallowed my tongue because I couldn't speak to him. It was awkward, because he was helping me and it just feels so wrong because it's Benedict Styles.I kept glaring at him from the corner of my eyes as the car slowly begins to move now and he still looked intensely beautiful, even in the dark. His jaw clenched as he looked straig

87 T H E A Sebastian committed suicide. He ended his own life with a gun in his head. No one even knew how he had a gun in the first place and no one had any idea he was going to do that. He was supposed to meet Ben and the others tomorrow for a reunion. He was supposed to live a new life after being sentenced in prison for seven years. He was supposed to live in a tropical place and start a new life for himself. He was supposed to live a life filled with dreams now that he is out in prison. Sebastian was supposed to live. I was supposed to forgive him. The autopsy report stated that it happened around twelve midnight which means just a few hours after he left our home. I have never felt so depressed in my entire life that I wasn't even able to tell him a lot of things that I wanted to say. I didnt know what I was exactly feeling, completely lost in my thoughts and emotions after Sebastian's passing. I knew that there was something wrong in his eyes when he talked to me becaus

86T H E A"How have you been?" He asks.Sebastian wore blue, white and light pink plaided top, a pair of faded jeans and a dirty white sneakers. He looked older than the last time I saw him and his hair has gotten longer too. He looked different, but those eyes still frightens me.Those merciless eyes.I couldn't stare at him longer and I had to look away from his gaze. I clear my throat, "I have been well." I answered."I'm really glad that you are." Sebastian tells me."Um, do you want to drink something Sebastian? Tea?" Ben offers.I quickly held his wrist, stopping him from leaving me alone in here and stared into his eyes as I said to him. "Please don't leave me here."Ben stares intently at me before he turns to Sebastian who speaks, "You dont really have to offer me anything."I bite my inner cheek and breathe in some confidence before I faced Sebastian. "What are you doing here?"Sebastian stares at me eagerly."What do you want?" I asked firmly."I came here to see if you ha

85T H E AI couldn't sleep the entire night as I was bothered about Sebastian's release happening in just a few hours.Thoughts were filling and piling inside my head one over the other and I don't know if this was going to let me sleep at all.So I slipped out of the bed where Ben was sleeping soundly and headed out of bedroom to get myself a glass of wine from downstairs. I hate myself when I turn to alcohol every time my thoughts are fogged up and fucked up. I hate when there are questions left unanswered and my solution is alcohol.I hated it.I hated it so much I hate myself too.I finished two glasses of wine and spent almost thirty minutes just sitting on a chair where I tried to drown and sort my troubled thoughts. I finally pulled myself up and headed back to my bedroom only until I saw Xavier heading out of his room, crying. I rushed to his side and wished that he wouldn't smell the stingy scent of alcohol from my breath."Xavier." I cooed. "What happened?""Mommy I had a n

84T H E A“Why didn’t you tell him?”Benedict's question still lingers in my mind.Why didn't I tell Sebastian back in the day?I have been asking myself that same question over and over again for the past couple of years. I used to tell myself that I wasn't ready and I know I wasn't ready. I lied to myself when I said I was ready to confess to him about our child but I was absentmindedly denying the fact that my mind was filled with so many thoughts as soon as I faced Sebastian.When I saw him, I was reminded of how he raped me mercilessly. When I saw him, I was reminded of how dirty of a woman I was. When I saw him, I was reminded of how I didn't want this baby to be born if only it hadn't been for Ben.Ben has always been my rock and my strength after everything that happened to me. All these years, he accepted me no matter what and I have been beyond blessed to have a man like that in my life.That kind of love and care he showed me is going to be something I didn't want to waste

My eyes travelled down to my baby bump and as I turn to my side, I feel more anxiety building in the back of my head. I am not confident enough that I will be a good mother to this baby once it’s out when I know this baby came from a man who I trusted so much but just raped me. My bump is starting to show now and I know I have a lifelong responsibility waiting ahead of me. I just hope I will be responsible enough.I rub my hand over my small tummy then smiled at myself.“You will be fine.” I told my baby.Ben is here for me and for us. He always has. He made everything feel better. He made me better and happier without asking too much in return. He is a very selfless man and I owe him my life.

I wish I could take some from her restless bothered thoughts and I wish I could help her with what she is going through.Thea is strong but I don’t want her to have another breakdown. I hope I can share the pain and confusions she is going through right now.

I know she still has a lot of things in mind with what has happened lately and I’m sure she’s tired of thinking about it too. She has talked to Khaleel and I have had talked to him too. Despite her past, we wanted to keep it to ourselves than letting the others know about it. They wouldn’t understand what she went through to survive and it isn’t our story to tell.I have asked myself a couple of times why she had to choose such job but then I didn’t have the courage to ask her. I don’t want her to feel bad about herself and the more I ask about her past, the more she would think it bothers me.Honestly, it has been in the past and we all have had done crazy shit a thing or two. All of us deserves a second chance and women like Thea who strives hard to change herself to become a better woman deserves more than that.
