...GENEVIEVE The morning sunlight streamed through the large glass windows of the cozy café, casting a warm, golden hue over the room. I sat at a small table, stirring my coffee absently, my expression distant as I stared out into the street. Janice, sitting across from me, watched me with a thoughtful gaze, waiting for the right moment to bring up the topic that had been on my mind.I had left Roman’s house early because I did not want to face his grandmother. After a few moments of silence, Janice set her coffee cup down with a soft clink and leaned forward, her voice gentle but direct. "So... what's really going on with you and Roman?" She asked, her eyes searching Genevieve’s face for any hint of emotion.I sighed deeply, my shoulders slumping slightly as I shook my head. "It's... complicated," I replied, my voice tinged with frustration.“ he gave you a ring after an hour of him realizing that he did not give you one. He must have called someone to arrange it or else he
IT was all my fault. My fault for trusting him and believing him. If i had known this would happen , i would have never done that. A bitter sigh escaped my lips as i looked over to the bartender before signaling him to make me another strong drink. Leaning against the wall , I looked at him wanting him to make me a drink quickly. A sigh escaped my lips as suddenly the darn scenes flashed inside my mind which caused me to come here in a bar for the first time. The bar was filled with people , enjoying themselves for different reasons while i was here to celebrate my disappointment, seeing my bastard boyfriend of three years cheating on me. It was supposed to be our third year anniversary. I wanted to surprise him. Preparing the homemade food he likes , the flowers he was fond of and a gift which i bought for him with my whole heart , everything was perfect. I should have known that something was wrong when he didn’t come to the airport to puck me up one day ago saying he was busy
...GENEVIEVE I woke up with my head banging. It felt like someone was hammering my skull. A sigh escaped my lips as i struggled to open my eyes. A groan escaped my lips as i rolled over and …… falling off of the bed with a thud. I opened my eyes , clearing the vision before rubbing my knee which hurt against the marble tiles. I ruffled my hairs as all of a sudden , the flashbacks from last night flashed in my mind as my eyes widened in horror. I looked around and found myself in an unfamiliar room. Quickly standing up , i stumbled a few steps back as i looked around the room but my nostrils were filled with the same addicting scent. His scent. A sigh escaped my lips and my eyes fell down on my clothes. I was …… in a white tee shirt. A lump formed in my throat as i struggled to gulp it down. Damn it. I should have gotten drunk. I closed my eyes and pushed my hairs back before taking a deep breath. It’s fine. Letting out a deep sigh , i looked at myself in the mirror and walke
...GENEVIEVE I don’t know how long i stayed in the shower. Honestly , I didn’t even care about anything now. My eyes ached from crying for so long. I didn’t think it would affect me this much but what did i even expect. He was the guy i gave my heart to. He was the guy i spent my teenage years and grew up with. But it all came crashing down.I took a deep breath before finally stepping out of the bath. I wrapped the towel around me and stepped out only to find a few shopping bags on the bed. A smile appeared on my lips as I walked over to, finding the best outfit for the day before getting changed into it. As i was busy doing my makeup , all of a sudden my phone buzzed with several notifications popping up making me ignore them knowing exactly who it was. Getting annoyed by continuous texts , i finally picked up the phone staring at the screen. [ talk to me , babe ] [ I can’t live without you ]The messages repeated themselves for several times making me fed up. [ it’s not w
...GENEVIEVE Roman looked at with a serious expression. He didn’t like what i just sad from his face. It was visible he wanted to take my life for saying but i just …… asked him for help. “ are you fucking out of your mind ? “I rolled my eyes , crossing my arms against my chest making my cleavage to bounce forward out of my top. I noticed him shifting in his place as he sat up straight , throwing daggers at me with his eyes. “ I want to lose my virginity- “He shot me another look making me stop from completing my words but i was also me and I listened to no one. “ i mean , you might know someone cool and of your class “I could see Roman trying so hard to control his anger and i loved doing that. I was well aware of him and he never liked getting teased. “ stop acting like I’m some kind of a psycho “He glared at me and i pouted , edging him. “ because you are acting like one “He taunted me but it had no effect on me. I asked him something so reasonable and he was making i
The car ride was quiet. My mind was still in haze about what happened in the plane and I couldn’t seem to get my mind off of what happened. I pushed my hairs back and looked at Mr. David , my driver. He came to pick me from the airport. “ everyone is waiting for you “A smile appeared on my lips as i thought of my father and my sister. After my mom passed away , it had been hard but going on. “ has Janice been good ? “He chuckled making me smile at the thought of Janice and i couldn’t wait to see her. The car came to a halt and i looked at my home in front of me but my eyes fell on the specific figure standing at the entrance , waiting for me. I jumped out of the car and i could see a wide smile spreading across her lips. “ baby ! “She was dressed up in a beautiful white dress and her black hairs perfectly falling over her shoulders. Soon i felt her arms around me as she pulled me in a tight hug. “ i missed you babe “I chuckled , feeling so happy after finally being home. “
...Genevieve My eyes burned with a fiery determination as I stepped forward, my gaze locked on the bracelet encircling Olivia’s wrist. It wasn’t just any bracelet; it was my mother’s, a precious keepsake that had no place on my stepsister’s wrist. Olivia’s smug smile only fueled her anger."Genevieve!" My father's voice rang out, stern and commanding, but I didn’t care. Nothing was more precious than my mom’s memories. With a swift, harsh motion, I seized Olivia’s wrist, ignoring her startled gasp. My fingers worked quickly, almost viciously, to unclasp the bracelet and wrench it free. My eyes burned with rage and I glared at Rosalind. She must have done it and she thought I wouldn’t create a scene. Heck no, Was I gonna sit back and watch it. Olivia's eyes widened in shock and pain, but before she could say anything, Rosalind’s voice cut through the tension. "Genevieve, how dare you treat Olivia like that!" she scolded sternly, stepping forward. I turned on her, eyes blazi
...ROMAN As Genevieve laughed at something the guy said, she felt a shift in the air and turned to see me striding toward her. My eyes burned in rage and I felt my vein throbbing in Her eyes widened in surprise, and the guy, noticing the change in her demeanor, followed her gaze. My glare was icy, and the guy quickly backed away, realizing Genevieve wasn’t available.The guy went away and I turned to Genevieve. She seemed to be so drunk but tried to hold her consciousness. I let out a deep sigh and grabbed her arm, my grip firm. "We’re leaving," I said, my voice low and controlled. I was not in the mood after seeing the guy and she flirting. How could she ? Suddenly Genevieve slapped my hand away, her eyes flashing with anger. "Get your hands off me!" she shouted loud enough to gain the attention of the bartender. I gave him a stern look and he started focusing on his work. "Go back to your fiancée, and leave me alone!"Ignoring her outburst, I grabbed her again, this time
