"Are you sure you can drive us back? I can take over."
"I prefer killing us than you doing it."
She chuckled humorlessly. None of them are completely fit to drive each other but if she has to, then he'd manage right?
"Should I be scared?"
"I'm not so weak and sick, Destiny. I wouldn't start what I can't finish by driving us in the first place."
"Well, I'm glad."
"Forgive them." He said.
"Forgive? Who?"
"I know your heart is burning out because of the things she said to you but please, let it go."
"Let it go?" She chuckled. "She fucking broke up with me, Grandpa. I want to hate h
Bright long strawberry hair, adorable big blue eyes, slightly bushy eyebrows, long lashes, and pouty lips. It's the picture she took secretly of the girl she met at pointe des arts months ago.The girl who called her goldie because she's a blondie.It never occurred to her to watch the pictures but as she sat on the bed after she had been stitched back yesterday, glancing through her gallery was the only thing that seemed to make sense.The only thing that didn't make sense was when she stared at Berry's picture. The more she stared at it, the more she saw a bit of her mom, her dad, brother, and herself in her.They are a family of blondes and blue eyes with French as thei
Now alone after Karen came in to say goodbye, she called Dennis."Can I not see anyone for now?" She asked."Not even Arabella?""Yes. Not even her." She replied in a heartbeat."What about her brother?""I don't want to see anyone." She stated strongly again.And so that was how it was.********It's been three days of not seeing anyone. Dennis made sure of that by warning all the workers to not let anyone in.In as much as she'd love and at the same time hate to not hear from him, she has to because he needed to update her on how the corporation was fairi
Another three days passed by. The wait and frustration turned into anger but what can you do? Her No will always remain No but there should be a way right?There always is.After standing outside the grocery store for more than an hour, he decided to go in.He roamed the entire store as if looking for someone.Then he saw her standing at where the fresh vegetables were sold.Maybe he was looking for someone after all.She was chubby and cute with short red hair. In her small hands was a small notebook containing the list of things she came to purchase.Her left hand let go of the paper and went up to her lips. She bit a finger gently as her eyes went over her list again.
She had just slipped a silky dress over her head after coming from the shower when suddenly the door to her balcony creaked then began to open.Her wounds have improved over the last six days so she didn't do much with a crutch though it was still a little difficult to stand upright for long.She went for a baseball bat behind her door and strategically moved forward. When the door opened wide, she was ready to knock the thief down but he was no thief."Whoa whoa! He jumped up and dodged the bat from getting to him. "Of all the things I imagined you would do when you see me, getting my head fractured wasn't part. But seriously, with a bat?" He chuckled, panting.She heaved heavily as she stared at him furiously. When Wilhelm saw how mad she was, he instantly composed hi
"Let me know if you feel any pain.""Just do it already." She said impatiently.He chuckled and closed his mouth around her, swallowing her gasp when he drove inside her wet tight heat."God!"He paused for a second to get her composure and to savor how good it is to just be inside of her."You're the best." He moaned as he continued to fill her.She moved her hips against him, telling him to move. He found her neck and devoured her as he began to move."God Wilhelm! You're heaven." She moaned in ecstasy.It was hard. So hard to not go harder, faster and rough especially not when she was screaming his name but he couldn't risk it. So instead, he we
"Since you let the other sibling in then this whole thing of keeping them away is not necessary. I'll let Ara in if she comes again.""No Grandpa.""Why? I like her more.""She doesn't want us together." She crossed her arm over her chest defiantly."I don't care about that.""Then what do you care about?""Fairness. You can't let the other one in and leave the other.""Ara is bent on breaking us apart.""At least hear her out.""You're on her side aren't you?""If I were you I wouldn't be bedding my best friend's brother." He s
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
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.
“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
For sometime now, before he left, she had seen him ignore calls and disconnect them with a grunt and frown on his face.Anytime she asks, he'd immediately plaster on a wide smile and tell her it was nothing but she saw it in his eyes.When he said he was leaving, it didn't really shock her but she was scared he'd lose him.If she had known that it was his business that wasn't doing well, she wouldn't have tried keeping him around.That is why she's taking this decision now. It will be difficult but since when did Destiny depend on someone to live?A bad habit she needs to rid off.Once she arrived at the corporation and entered the office she shared for an unbelievably long time with Wilhelm, she realized it was time to shoulder everything.A lot has changed. Dislike quickly turned to immense likeness then, love.Thinking back to it, they've already been through a lot. He should understand when she finally tells him that he no longer needs to work for her.He never agreed but she hope
..........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. She avoided it but when it kept ringing and she lo
"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." She whispered, her voice threatening to break."I will."She dropped her thumb, tightened their entwined hands, and leaned into him, resting her head against his arm.Sooner or later, she'd have to say goodbye and she's not ready for that.
They only had tonight and tomorrow until he leaves.After practicing, she watched him prepare dinner for them and in the night, they made love over and over again.She woke up with him trying to get her off his body."No." She whispered with eyes closed while clinging onto him like glue to paper."Hey, I need to...""Shhh." She placed a finger on his lips."Please.""Let me sleep for a while.""I gotta pee
