~~~
I woke up early just like any of the other days. Ever since Shantal feel better, I always made sure to wake up early than my usual schedule to allow more time for myself to prepare her food. However, just as when I was on my way to her house, I got involved to a small traffic accident; I lost my consciousness as a result of it and ended up sleeping for the most part the day but when I woke up, I was good to go.
The nurse that assisted me told me that I should be thankful that all I get was a sprained ankle out from that accident.
Thank Goodness
After they let me out of the hospital, I went straight to Shantal's place. It might have took me longer than usual, adding the fact that I was now having a hard time moving due to my injury, but at least, I still remained true to my words about coming to see her on a daily ba

Author's P o V~~~Shantal walked away as soon as she was done telling Alex all that she wanted to say to him. But Alex ran after her."I have a lot to tell you, will you listen to me now?"He asked as soon as he caught up to her."No. Besides, what more should I listen to in this situation?"Shantal, on the other hand, asked Alex back with a scoff. Then she gave him a once over before adding,"But I must say, you really have a lot of guts. I mean, how can you even keep coming back here after all of what you have done to me? What are you, really? Do you still consider yourself as a human? Ohh.. I see.. Maybe you are that not much of a human and that is why you made a great robot?""I'm sorry."That was all Alex managed to say after hearing Shantal. He knew that the other party was in pain just

SHANTAL's P o V~~~Yes, I hated Alex more than words could say. But it was also just as painful to me as it was to him whenever I see him hurting. So before I could even hurt him more than I already did, I decided to keep my distance from him by running away, just like what I would always do. However, what I did not expect was when, this time, he ran after me. He pulled me back by my arm as soon as he caught up to stop me and in between his labored breath, he asked,"I have a lot to tell you, will you listen to me now?"But right at this point, I still don't have the open mind necessary to give him a chance to explain himself let alone put myself in a position where I could understand him with empathy. So I gave him a big 'NO' right to his face."No."Plus there was this fact as well t

ALEX's P o V~~~Shantal made it clear for all ears to hear how much she hated me and to be honest, I could not bring myself to blame her. I deserved all her hate after everything that I have done to betray her trust."But I must say, you really have a lot of guts. I mean, how can you even keep coming back here after all of what you have done to me? What are you, really? Do you still consider yourself as a human? Ohh.. I see.. Maybe you are that not much of a human and that is why you made a great robot?"She said all those things within one breath yet all I could say in return was that I am sorry because I could tell even just by looking into her eyes that she was also in pain just as I was hurting."Do you want to know what I did before you arrived? Shall I tell you?

SHANTAL's P o V~~~~"Shall I tell you what I did before you arrived?"I wanted to laugh at my own foolishness the moment I recalled how I made myself a clown today."I waited for you. I waited for you like a lunatic! I waited for you all day while disregarding my pride and that is why I hated myself for doing that. Because again, I let you to make a fool out of me."The more I speak, the louder my voice became to the point that I already felt like I was about to go deaf because of the sound of my own voice. Every words I said was laced with equal amount of pain and hatred enough to put anyone's mind in distress. Yet all I get was a sheepish reply from Alex."I am so sorry."He already tried to apologize and humbled himself before me but for some reason, that only

ALEX's P o V~~~~"Enough with your useless sorry. That was just another word for shit in disguise because that thingwon't change the fact that you deceived me once again. But more than anything, I hate myself for anticipating and worrying why you did not show up. How silly must you think I am? Did you say that because you knew."Shantal was becoming breathless the more she spoke that when she asked her last question it only sounded no louder than a whisper."No."I answered her back in the same manner and tried to speak as soft and low as my deep voice could muster."Then why did you not just disappear when you are robot? Or if you are going to lie at least don't get caught."She suggested under her breath while

SHANTAL's P o V~~~I am both laughing and crying at the same time and I feel like at this rate, I am so close if not about to go insane. Alex and I were also shaking hard as a result of bawling our eyes out. But I no longer care about his pain; all I know was mine.I am in deep pain and I am hurting in the worst possible way. I am angry and I am really, and badly mad. I hate Alex, but more than anything else, I hated myself for being affected and feeling all of these."Why are you crying? To prove to me that you are indeed a human? That is both despicable and disgusting. Get lost!"My heart was in so much pain, it hurts. I wanted him to feel my pain. I wanted to hurt him too! So I pounded my fists against his chest as I said those words, yet he remained unmoved. I saw his effort to stop himself from crying but his shoulders were still shaking. Slowly, my eyes were starting to see his pain. The pain that was
Boyfriend for Sale Nothing but imagination
Shantal has no recollection of falling asleep at all because she passed out drank; plastered by the amount of alcohol she consumed the previous night but when she tried to open her eyes again, the first thing that greeted her eyes was Steve standing in front of her while his eyes bore into hers. Shantal, on the other hand, was not surprise at all and instead held his gaze and stared back at him."What are you doing here?"She asked him with a nonchalant face. But the other party only asked her back."What do you think I came here for? To see your face? I don't think so."Then after clicking his tongue he added,"I am actually here to give and then take away the gift of your life. Once I leave, you will feel very upset. I guarantee that."Shantal, on the other hand, replied with an air of indifference."I lack the patie

AUTHOR's P o V "Oh, I thought so. It is nothing but a dream." Shantal thought to herself as soon as she woke up in the living room. "GEEZ! Why do I have to keep dreaming about Steve lately?" She thought out loud in dismay and to forget her annoyance, she decided to turn the TV on. "Tonight there will be a minimum of 70 meteor showers during an hour and they are expected to fall later this night at around seven in the evening. According to the National Astronomy and Space Science Institute, the Alpha Centaurids meteor shower will become visible starting tonight in our country. This phenomenon was believed to cover the entire night sky once it hits the peak----" However, the media announcer was still in the middle of her report when Shantal decided that she was not in the mood to watch the news and so she turned the TV off.

Jodi on the other hand who was watching all of this farce unfold right before her eyes, could not help but let out a sigh."You sure are made for each other."She said to no one in particular and it was also as seemed she was only talking to herself."Anyway.

"In other words, she wants me to become director and cover up all his shortcomings?"Mr. Takashi insinuated after his contemplation. He did not exactly declined the offer this time, unlike before. Although he also did not directly implied that he would do it.Nonetheless, Secretary Ye considered his response as a good sign. At least, the other party was no longer adamant at turning them down.So with the same insinuating manner, she answered him back."That would make it easier for you to do your duties once you become a director. All that was left for you now is to leave Ms. Shantal Nordstrome no other choice but to step down and abdicate the position of board directory to your hands.""Ousting her is not enough.

"You told Jodi about everything?"Mathilde asked her secretary as soon as the two of them were finally allowed to have some private conversation within the prison hall where she was currently detained. Panic was noticeably present on the other party's face when she raised her question. Meanwhile, the secretary remained silence yet that was all enough for Mathilde to guess her response and not long after that, her shoulders dropped on the side when the realization hit her."I guess she was bound to find out about it sooner or later."She muttered under her breath with despondent undertone.An exasperated sigh escaped Mathilde's lips afterward. But then, she suddenly tenses up when she recalled about something else.Leaning towards the other party all the while grabbing a hold to the iron bars, Mathilde looked around her warily first to make sure that no ears were on them.Only when she confirmed for the umpteenth time that no one was listenin
