She saw her talking to some of the guests with that wide smile of hers plastered on her face.
Pixie noticed that she was waiting on her and politely excused herself to get to her.
"I'm not going to apologize for earlier. Because I'm not like you who dash smiles on a gold platter to strangers. But I am thankful that you left them for me."
"It's okay." And there was that smile of hers again. So huge that it showed her entire thirty-two set. Maybe she should call her Miss Smiley instead.
"I was coming to call you before meeting them."
"Call me? For what?"

"That was part of the game." She lied."You riled her up. You caused the wrestle after all.""What's teasing if it doesn't provoke any kind of feeling?""You're right." He gave her the drink and this time she took it and handed him the empty glass."But would you have...Uhm..done it if I were serious about it?" She couldn't look him in the eye."I would jump at any chance to bed a gorgeous lady like you.""You perv." She made a disgusted face at him.He laugh

Karen went on. "It's not just about work, is it? You wouldn't fight for him just because of the work, would you?"She looked around suspiciously even though she didn't have to because no one lived with Karen. Richard only comes to visit when he deems it fit."I don't know what you're talking about.""Don't act dumb. Can't you see that you've changed?""This is how I've always been. Maybe you didn't know because you never crossed me until now.""That too but what I mean is that you've changed. You as a whole. Just look at yourself." She waved her hands over her body."I still don't know what you're talking about, Karen." She replied innocently."Then you should just enjoy it." She poin

Mondays are famous for being long, and super tiring but Destiny's Monday turned out differently. Well, except for the duration part.The day didn't drag on. It flew by quickly unexpectedly.Perhaps it is because she reported late or because Wilhelm has been out the entire day and she had to bury herself in a book she was reading when she didn't have anything to do and also to not feel his absence.A distraction seemed to be the best plan.Wilhelm had told her that he would only return to the office if his meeting ended early. And she had hoped that he'll get to finish in time and come.Getting a distraction was a bit impossible and trying to be busy was a challenge she was trying to hold up. Even though she might be engrossed in whatever she w

Today was different. Once she stepped down from her car, he also drove in and parked.He used to always be in before she came.When he looked at her, there was that familiar rush that ran through her. Her heart rate increased and she wished she had worn something nicer like she'd been wearing lately.She left without looking back and when she got to the office, she ordered tea and donuts.He came in soon after. "Hi.""Hi." She responded stiffly but as he moved to his desk, she couldn't help stealing a glance at him.He wore a dark shade of

"First of all, you're all welcome." All eyes were on him."To save time, I'll dive right in. Mr. Todd, as the financial officer, can you tell me the duties of an accountant?"There were indistinct murmurings between them."With all due respect, Mr. Grey, I know my job." The middle-aged man answered."If you do then are you aware that the company's funds are outrageously being embezzled?!"They whispered among themselves. Realization dawned on the faces of some."I got to know but before I could do anything about it, you called for the meeting."Okay.

Without a word, he grabbed her by the wrist, matched her to the elevator, and pressed the top floor button."What are you doing?""What did you think of going to do down there?""To show Richard his place. If I didn't have any reason to fire him earlier, now I do and even then I did. I am not God to overlook all that, Mr. Grey. He needs to be punished." Her body shook all over. The thirst to see Richard suffer consumed her."I agree with you but I want us to catch him red-handed then you can punish him anyhow you want.""What makes you think the others won't cover up for him? That they are not going to give him a fucking headup?""They won't dare. Trust me, I have it all under control. And

"I uh.. I..." She stuttered. "This shouldn't be happening. I'm not supposed to do this." She massaged her forehead slowly."Why not?""The corporation is falling apart. So many things are happening to it and I just found out. I should be doing something to bring it back. Not this. And especially not now." She began to pace. "I'd be selfish if I...""Then be it." He cut her off."What?""If this would calm your nerves for now, then be selfish.""The heck are you saying?" She shook her head, turned around and began to walk away.Her nerves.Does she need it?'Do I need it?'

Once she entered, her face met directly with her grandfather's. He stood up when he beheld her."What on Earth are you doing here?"Dennis raised his brows at her sharply. She dropped her bag and folded her arms to her chest stubbornly.How long has he been waiting anyway? She thought."I heard that you were unwell so I came to check up on you." He dragged his eyes on her worriedly.Damn Karen.She bit her tongue from asking. "Why do you care?" Because she knows that even though Dennis is not in support of her decisions, he cared. He still does a lot for her."As you can see. I'm as fit as fiddle." She replied."Okay

“Hi.” She squeaked in a mixture of fake excitement and genuine nervousness. “I trust things are going well for you in London. What you went to do, how's it going?”After asking, she waited for his response and when it didn't come, she tapped on the dim screen to see if he dropped the call.But he was still on it.She sighed and leaned into the leather seat. “Look, I wasn't ignoring you. It's just…”“Just what?” He cuts her off.“Nothing.”“Nothing? Did you realize that you're ghosting me? How would you have felt if I was the one doing that to you?”“It's not me, and I know you don't give a fuck.”“Are you shitting me? How haven't you seen that I care for you?”“Care? But you don't love me.”“That's not what we're talking about.”“Really?”“You said you'll wait. You said you'll give it time.”“Oh, and then you expected me to have hope and wait when you're literally going back into the arms of your ex-girlfriends?”“What?”“ I don't want any heartbreaking surprises, and that's why I'm l

..........The buzzing of her phone woke her up. She blindly searched for it and when she finally got a hold of it, she answered without looking at the ID."I'm still in..." She was mumbling when she got cut off."Hi Des, it's...wait. Were you saying you're still in bed?"Destiny got up to a sitting position and begrudgingly rubbed her eyes. "Ara?""Yes, baby."Destiny rolled her eyes. "You sound cheery.""Of course. Wanna guess it?""You know I just woke up. My brain needs time before it starts functioning.""I'll buy your excuse.""So?""I'm going on a date.""Oh wow. You found someone or it's a man.""I found someone.""That's wonderful Ara. I'm really happy for you." Destiny got out of the bed, fully woken by Ara's good news."It doesn't mean I'm over you. I still love you, Des."Destiny sighed. It's been months and yet she's still saying that."My

.......After seven hours, her system automatically became restless. He started expecting a call or text from him.Slowly, the sun hid back behind its clouds and she was about to retire to bed herself.But could she sleep without talking to him?Her phone was beside her and she kept checking it every second. Every message tone, every incoming call sent her jumping up to reach her phone only to be disappointed.At eleven, she began to force herself to sleep as she was no longer sure he'd call her. Midnight and she was still struggling to sleep.She placed the phone on the bedside table and disappeared under the covers, shutting her eyes tight.It's not been a day since he left yet she miss him, so much. Even the bed she lays on keeps reminding her of him and how it had felt like with him on it.Just when she was really falling into slumber, her phone began to ring.

"Whatever you do, make sure you don't miss Christmas with me." She brushed her thumb over his beautiful lips while staring deep into his blue-green eyes.She feels so weak and helpless."I won't." He kissed her thumb."Come back soon."

The moment the elevator dinged, her heart leaped along with it but she didn't flinch and pretended to be engrossed. The closer his steps got, the more his fragrance filled her nostrils. Her insides tightened in excitement. He closed earlier than usual today. "Mmm...what is it you're reading?" He came around and kissed the corners of her lip. "Why do you wanna know? You never cared." She asked, smiling but never looking up from the book. "I've seen you go from scared to happy, in love and despair. More of despair. You've cried a bucket full already. I can't take it." He pitched in a sorrowful tone.

Destiny invited a waiting Ara to have breakfast with them. A very awkward breakfast.When it was over she asked Ara to her room but she declined."Outside then?""Is there not a seat on the balcony?""There is." Destiny breathed, clutching to the sides of her dress.When they got there, Destiny sat on the wicker chair, expecting her to join her but she didn't.The early morning sun of mid-July warmed Destiny's skin to the point of scorching. July weather in America has always been harsh. She looked down from the blinding sunlight while waiting for Ara to speak.Ara stood against the railings and placed her hand on it while her eyes remained below, taking in the
