Family (Part 2)
Huling Na-update:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Anthony walked toward Chocolate Kiss Inn. It was already dark and the streets were quiet, which was usual on the east side of the island. Here, people prefer the idyllic paradise lifestyle where they put a premium on rest, relaxation, and peace.
Night life was not a regular occurrence here; those looking for something more lively at sundown were directed to the west side where, as locals would joke, no one ever sleeps.
For the east side, night life was more drinking beer and having quiet conversation while watching the waves crash at the beach than anything else.
Anthony knew that the investors’ meeting was this afternoon so he brought a six-pack, knowing that Vivi would probably like to unwind after dinner.
He went straight to Vivi’s office, knocki

“Hey wait, wait... babe…!” Leo made a face to them and went after Vivi.Vivi went to a corner of the garden and folded her arms.She doesn’t know why exactly, but she is fuming mad. Not at Leo per se, but on the idea that she was forced to act out of character.She refused to look at him.“Come on, babe,” he said with insincere sweetness.“No one can hear you but me, idiot,” she gritted her teeth.“They might. Besides, this is good practice. Our first argument as a couple. How exciting!”The errant wind constantly blew her hair, and it was framing her face beautifully.

The first thing that came to Vivi’s mind when she came to work the next morning was that something didn’t feel right.It first crossed her mind when she greeted those working the front desk good morning as she passed by.It happened again when she passed by two housekeeping staff who were on the morning shift.Finally, she spotted several employees congregating at the front desk. Noting that they were acting suspiciously, she immediately walked to them.“What’s up?” she asked.Everyone glanced at each other, waiting for someone to talk first.“Well, Boss…” Isabelle, one of the receptionists, spoke up. “It’s just that som

He tapped impatiently on the table, glancing constantly at the counter as he sat in a booth at a secluded part of the cafe. It didn’t take too long before a girl came and placed a steaming cup of coffee on his table. “Thank you.” “Enjoy, sir,” the girl replied, bowing before she backed away and left. He sighed, a frown forming on his face, which he immediately shook away. No use getting disappointed so early. He turned to his side and laid a hand over the guitar case placed on the seat beside him. He has enough time. He removed his face mask and raised the cup to his face, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filling his nose. He took a tentative sip, careful not to burn his t

The red-orange light of the sunset was slowly covered by purple, then black, as the night sky descended on the sea. The cries of the seagulls became drowned by the chirping of the crickets. Vivi Willows breathed in deeply, savoring the salty, fresh air as it poured into her lungs. She liked sitting by the beach and watching the sunset after a long day. Twilight was her favorite time of the day. It was the only time when she could allow herself to rest and be calmed by the gentle waves on the beach. It’s been five years since she decided to move back to Foxgrove with her little sister to be with their grandmother, who was already in her retirement age. The Chocolate Kiss was a family business, one that has been passed on for generations. At first, Vivi never wanted to inherit the business. She wanted to live a gla
Chocolate Kiss Vol. 1: Forgotten Love Song Wrong Place, Wrong Time (Part 1)
It’s been a few days since the VIP at Cottage 2 arrived at the inn. Vivi was helping at the cafe when she gave such a long, tired sigh that caught her co-worker’s attention. “Bad day, Boss?” Selene asked. “I don’t know if I can take any more of this.” “How about taking a seat?” Selene offered an empty chair beside her. “Old Boss making you run a lot of errands again?” “It’s not that, this time. It’s just that Grandma put me in charge of the VIP at Cottage 2.” “Difficult customer, eh?” “Not really. But I always get bad luck whenever I get close to him.” “What do you mean?” Vivi proce

Vivi ran to their living quarters and went straight to the bathroom, where she tried to calm herself down. She splashed some cold water on her face in an effort to cool it down. That man was the bane of her existence! She looked at herself in the mirror. She was still panting; water dripping from her chin and the faint tinge of pink on her cheeks. “It would do you well to stay away from that man,” she said to her reflection. She needed to break the cycle of bad luck he had brought upon her. She wiped her face with a towel. Elena could be the one to serve him instead of her. The old lady was a loyal employee who worked at the inn for decades.

Leo sat in the lobby with his mask on. It was still early in the morning. The sky was still dark, and the sun wasn’t up yet, so there weren't many people in the area. He checked his watch. It was 4:45. He’s been up since four. “Should you decide to take the tour, your guide will leave at five in the morning, so please be at the lobby before then. Bring a jacket. It might get cold,” was what she said last night. He tapped a finger impatiently against the arm of the couch, wondering what he was doing there at such an early hour. He wasn’t really interested in going around the island, but something woke him up so early and he couldn’t bring himself to go back to sleep, so he thought he might as well give it a try. He nearly dozed off when he heard a familiar voice.

Leo and Vivi both heaved a sigh of relief as they found themselves back inside the café. After talking to Grandma Zeri, the two quietly escaped the conference hall while the rest of the people in the hall were busy sampling the platter of bread and pastries from the café.Selene served them a glass of water each, bowing her head a few more times in apology. Vivi forgave her immediately, but gave her a warning to keep the fact that their relationship was fake to herself, which Selene quickly promised to do.“I guess there’s no turning back now,” said Leo as he watched Selene walk back to her post behind the counter.Vivi watched him in silence for a moment, trying to assess their situation. While she felt a sense of gratitude towards Leo for getting her out of that mess, it appeared th

Vivi groaned loudly, cradling her head with her hands, after Mr. Morris left. Leo and Selene glanced at each other, wondering what to do next, when she suddenly sat up and looked in their direction.“Can someone please explain to me what just happened?” she demanded.Selene immediately bowed her head. “It’s my fault, Boss. I couldn’t leave Mr. Adams hanging in front of that awful woman so I ended up suggesting you as his girlfriend without thinking.”Vivi turned to Leo and glared. “And you,” she said. “I expected more from you. What the hell were you thinking?”“Kitty isn’t the type to give up easily,” he reasoned out. “I needed to give her a reason to give up.”

Leo came into the inn’s cafe in the afternoon, planning to get a few snacks and an iced coffee to bring to the beach to eat as he read a paperback he brought with him. He went to the cafe instead of calling for room service that day because he heard Vivi was busy with a meeting with some of their investors. He was just about to leave when he was suddenly attacked with a bear hug. “Leo! I knew it was you!” The culprit was a beautiful young woman wearing a skimpy body hugging mini dress. A younger girl carrying a backpack followed behind her. “Kitty?” Leo exclaimed, recognizing her. “What are you doing here?” The woman in question brazenly removed Leo’s mask and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He quickly removed her arms aro

The island of Foxgrove came alive as the festival started in full swing. A street parade began, which travelled through the main street up to the plaza. Young locals wearing colorful costumes and masks danced and sang as they walked through the street, pulling in tourists and inviting them to dance along to the loud, upbeat music.All around were smiling faces.Vivi was busy serving customers in her booth in the plaza when Uncle Mac and Leo arrived. He was wearing his mask as usual, this time pairing it with a black cap.She had asked Uncle Mac earlier to give Leo a tour around the festival area.“Let me help you,” Leo said, taking the loaf of bread from her hand and placing it inside a paper bag before handing it over to the customer.

Vivi rang the doorbell to Cottage 2 and waited for a few moments before using her key to enter. She wondered if Mr. Adams was still asleep. He must have been so tired after walking around town the entire day yesterday.She suddenly stopped after taking a single step. Something felt odd the moment she walked through the front door, like she was transported into an alien world. She looked around. Everything seemed to be in perfect order, but she could feel that the atmosphere remained heavy and it was unusually quiet.She carefully walked inside. Glancing around, she felt as if the air seemed particularly heavy in the vicinity of the bedroom door.She placed the tray of food on the table. Then slowly walked to the door. She placed a hand over the knob and gingerly turned it open.
