Alexander looked at the girl in his arms who whispered her question.
He wondered what the deal with her is asking for a one-night stand at every turn when drunk. Was it because of how her parents met? Doesn’t seem so…
He kissed her because he wanted to, and she wanted too. The moment, the time was sure right that day, but she was moved too, and he wanted to kiss her too.
His lips touched those slightly wet lips, and he felt the current that passed through him, it did whenever her lips touched his. She made him go crazy and still brought him ashore when ever he ventured far.
She kept her grounded with her talks but swept him away from her rationality. It wasn’t his first meeting someone rational, he met many such women in his field of work, they excited him to work, never to give them space in his life.
He wanted to have her in a way that nobody can, he wasn’t willing to admit just how much she interests him but the idea of
In every novel, there comes a stage when everything goes into disarray and same thing happened to me. I looked at the arm still slung over my shoulder and remembered how I whispered my heart out many times over and over last night. I remembered how he didn’t react even once but still, I remembered what we did on the dance floor. He kissed me, leaned in, and took me in his arms. I looked at his calm face and wondered what I would do if he said something to break my heart. I wasn’t in love but this like was enough to break my heart. This was the most I’ve ever liked a person. I smiled as a tear fell from my eye and I wanted to run away. I was embarrassed, so, so embarrassed. I didn’t want to like him at all. He doesn’t even know how much food I eat in breakfast. He doesn’t care what I do in a day, we don’t talk over the phone, he isn’t a reliable boyfriend. Nothing about him matched what I thought I wanted in a guy, then why, why I want to be with him.
‘Questions are creative acts of Intelligence.’Whoever spoke that nonsense definitely wasn’t in love or anything close. Because if he were, he definitely wouldn’t say that. Questions are stupid acts of intelligence when drowning in love.You ask them, not to know the answer but rather to fuck with people’s head.One such situation is going on right here.“why?” I asked as I looked at the nice invitation to an engagement that is going to happen in the Alexeev’s mansion and there was my name on it.Printed in pure gold with the stylish font.Wasn’t the engagement supposed to be an only family event, why is it so high profile when it’s only family event?!“Wasn’t it supposed to be only family event?” I looked at him incredulously and he smiled and touched my cheek again.This time it was a different kind of touch, one that can’t be called normal. I
I finished my word and threw some stuff in the cardboard box I readied to leave with my things. Leaving this job just after three and a half months made me surprised over how attached I was to this place in just a brief time.It also reminded of a line my mom said and repeated over so many times.‘Doesn’t matter how fleeting time is, you fall for even the smallest thing and loves everything about it.’According to her, that’s why she ever loves dad.She fell for the smallest habit of his, every part of her came to love him.She fell in love with her job of homemaking, even though she always wanted to work, be employed in a big fat company but she chose my dad and his school over everything else, helped him with it. Without mom, dad says he is nothing and that was the kind of love I look up to.I always remember the regrets they had, of not being the firsts of each other but they were just regrets and they say with tim
His hands wrapped around me as he leaned his head on mine, snuggling into my hairs keeping no distance whatsoever and his hands kept tightening.“What happened?” He whispered as I closed my eyes at his unintentional doings. My insides were jumbled while he was just calming his friend.“Nothing.” I said as I opened my eyes and looked straight, it doesn’t matter what happens now. Broken heart or not, I regret this contract for all of me, for all my heart.“Why are you so sad?” His voice fell as an unintentional puff of air touched my skin and caressed it causing me to shudder once again and I looked at him.I chuckled suddenly before the smile fell and I said, “Is it bothering you?”When did my smile became any of his business?I was being out of line but right now, all I wanted to do was hurt him enough to shatter him while I also wanted to be away from him to stop my own hurt that was sla
“So cute!!!”Click!Click!Click!I turned around and snuggled, covering my ears and slept while my arms pulled my pillow closer.My pillow almost turned around before I grabbed it again. I mean, you are my pillow, what are you bending for?I pulled on the pillow tighter when the pillow hugged me back and I felt all the warmth of the world as the temperature was just right. I want back to sleep when another sound of shutter fell into my ears, and I yawned before I tried to snuggle more into the pillow.“She is looking so adorable…” My mom’s voice rang in my ears as something covered my ears and finally, a nice silence.My sleep went away though…I turned to look at my mom who was still smiling at me and I smiled and opened my hands to hug her, but the hug didn’t come, and my mom was looking behind me as two hands encircled my waist, and my sleepy self was pulled back as I
“Okay, so you want me to tell you why I am angry at you, right? First of all, I am really not in the mood to discuss it but since, you are so interested in this, let’s hear it, you freaking—”And his ringtone blared at the highest octave making me want to bang my head on the wall.Just why are we in this situation where I do not even want to talk or discuss anything and yet have to talk about it?He hurriedly picked his phone, rejected it, and looked at me as I started speaking again when as soon as I started, I was interrupted.This was interesting as he fumbled with his phone before looking frustrated and looked at me with eyes full of whining, so unlike the CEO who always seems so perfect.“Amy, I, I really want to talk and know why you are angry at me but this, this is so–”He looked frustrated as his eyes pinched in straight lines while his temple squeezed with his eyebrows scrunched.I s
After a hot dinner with ice-cold air, three people stood in my room, including me, as we all looked at the queen-sized cute bed and then the size of our body.“I think, one of you should sleep in the guestroom.” I said and moved inside deciding to not point out who should because I felt if I did, I might be shot. With a gun. In the gut.“You decide.” Alisha said and I turned to look at her.“What?” I said as I looked at her and a terrifying thought came to me.She is here to mess with Alex.Oh, this really won’t end well.Let’s watch till the end.The excitement of watching the fight between two extremes lightened my spirit to see who will win and who will lose.“I think you should decide which one of us will sleep by your side. Afterall, you’re the owner.” Alisha said as she smirked and looked at Alex who lo
Again, in the crumbled sheets laid a beautiful girl saving herself from the cruel sounds of fighting and smells of nice-nice coffee with caramel and surely, there’s one cup of espresso as well.I, the beautiful girl still kept her eyes closed and wondered when will my alarm set off so that I wake up but I still feel so tired and don’t want to wake up, yet this damned smell of caramel coffee was so nice that all I wanted to do was wake up and take a sip…I really want to take just one sip and be back to sleep.Finally, after a lot of infighting, I opened my eyes and looked at the damned cup swinging under my nose while I laid in Alexander’s arms who was looking amused, and I just kept my head laid and looked at the coffee cup swinging and opened my mouth. The coffee cup had conscience, came to my mouth, and touched my lips knocking a little down making a little sip of coffee enter my mouth and I fell in
Nik looked at his father working on a file and opened his own toy laptop that he got after a lot of begging from his mother. His mother is a nice woman but surely, a strict mom. She loves watching all kinds of drama and she believes that help only when you can, otherwise just sit on the sidelines with a snack to watch. Even Nona believes so. Nona definitely taught Mom well. She is exactly like her. “Hey dad, what do we do now?” Nik asked as he tried to copy his father as he worked on files and other things. Today, he was in his dad’s office as his dear mother had to go for some promotions of her books and also, his little sister went to attend her play school while he, who had his holidays because of exams was left here to work with his father. “You can go and ask Sib to give you games.” Dad said with his eyes still on the screen causing Nik to almost say ‘how rude’ but he stopped because he didn’t want to get smacked again for talking nonsense. Though, Nik felt that those smac
"Dad, you think it's good?" My seven-year-old son asked as he checked the gift I bought for his mom and my wife."Dad, why do I feel you are cheating on mom?" Nik asked as he touched the necklace and I looked at him incredulously."What are you speaking about?" I don't understand how exactly he reached that conclusion."Well, me and mom were watching this nice drama and–""You and your mom? She let you watch with her?" The woman who is usually shouting all the time about not letting these kids watch drama because they ask questions that are way mind-blowing than anything, let him watch with her..."She didn't let me, I watched myself. These are my eyes, dad." This little twit actually rolled his eyes at me as I kept looking at him and suddenly, he flexed himself and said, "I know I am handsome, no need to stare."I am sure my smiling lips suddenly twitched when I calmed down and said, "You were telling me about why you think I am cheating.""Oh yes, you interrupted me." He said and I
"Mom!!!!" A loud cry sounded as I let go of the spatula and it felt with a loud clatter, and I hurriedly moved away as I looked behind me to see my daughter of four running towards me with the very expression as if her world has shattered."Pia, what–" little Pia ran to me as her hands wrapped around me and I smiled as her hands wrapped around me knowing whatever she was going to say is going to make me laugh without limit."I think–" her sobs hardened as she reached the part and I wondered what happened to make her cry so much."Baby, calm down, shush now, no more crying." I said as I kept petting her arms and kissed the side of her head and switched of stove leaving the kitchen with her in my arms."Mom, dad–" okay, what did that man do to make her cry like that with no end?"What did he do? Did he shout because you touched his folders and draw on them?" I asked her as I kissed her forehead while wiping her face and cuddling her on the sofa.She shook her head as she denied every sp
“I think I’m pregnant.” Amelia said as she looked right at the line that proved she was pregnant, and I stilled.“You were on birth control, weren’t you?” I whispered though I was trying to talk.It’s been six months since I married this beautiful woman but all I can feel right now is confused with what is happening right now after I heard what she was talking about.“I am on birth control but this,” she stopped to look at me and came to me to hug after she washed her hands and threw the sticks she used to confirm. “It could be a fake alarm too, you know.”“Right, it’s fake. I don’t want a baby right now and you know it. You want to further your career and I will be leaving for Switzerland in a few days and will only come back after a month or so, we can’t care for a baby right now. We will not take a chance with this. You understand me, right?” whatever I was speaking were the exact thoughts that are clashing in my head but the fear that we will be killing a life was also there.“I k
I looked down the aisle as we rehearsed the last time before I was really going to be here all dressed in perfection and will be given to the very guy who was standing in front of me.It really isn’t going to be perfect because of how his cousins and my best friend had a lot of things to do in this function yet all of it, in its chaos and imperfection was just so… so perfect.“Nervous again?” I said looking at the guy who was unknowingly moving his legs with nervousness poring out of his every move.“I’ll be nervous until I really have you in my arms.” Surely, even his nervousness couldn’t make his flirtiness go away.“Aww!” our cute and blessed supporter, Miss Sophia Alexeev came with her hands on her cheeks doing her own aww moment…Why? Why can’t we just practice this by ourselves than be here in a fanfare?“Are you done?” Alexander asked Sophia who finally put her hands down and said “No!”Her hands again cupped her face and she blinked her originally big eyes while making a moment
It was interesting how I wanted to fall in love and marry with my first boyfriend, and none of it had anything to do with my first boyfriend.I just wanted a love story worth sharing and something that was simply perfect…I didn’t realize that anything could be perfect and even my clumsiness can’t destroy it. All it took was a uh- few months that I fell in love, and that’s too with a guy who made me sign a contract (fine, I did break a vase but still!) and that guy is the guy who was practicing the dance with me now.Our very own wedding dance.Oh, I wish I break a leg or at least hurt it enough to not dance at all.Who would like to fall face-flat in their own wedding that was being considered a flash wedding in the media?I looked at my very dear boyfriend and fiancé who was enjoying himself and resigned myself to the fate of falling in my own wedding.Move left, twirl, a step right, then hand in his, a fall…And this continued till I was weak in the knees while the boy who had more
I looked at the feast on the table wide enough to hold food to feed more than ten people at once, then I looked at the guy who said it was a date and was even looking at me pretty expectantly.What are you expecting? It is a wonderful place to have a date!?A place that places more than a mile distance by just this long table!?That forbade us to hold hands or anything?Where is the sensual touch on each date I wrote for my lead is?“Why aren’t you eating?” he questioned, and I again looked at the feast that was laid out and saw how most of them were my favorites and some his.“This is a date?” I said or questioned and looked at him as his eyebrows frowned and he nodded his head albeit a little slowly as if doubting his own agreement.I again looked at the décor of this insanely fancy restaurant and wondered just how my lips have been twitching to tell him just how nice I feel about this place.What is up with people here?Why are they dressed like some royal drama with eyes having ro
“I am so sorry that I kicked you?” I said as I looked at him being all whinny about something that has already happened.“Amy, is it fun to do this? You don’t like me, I know this.” He said sternly and I was thinking about all the time that we have been missing because of this mess.“No, I like you, why won’t you just believe me?” I took a sip of my cola and tried to look serious but still, the giddy feeling from having my crush liking me made me look crazy.“You don’t even look serious right now!” he snapped and my eyes widened a little but as I controlled my expression and said “That is because I am so happy that you like me.”“I know you don’t! I heard you telling someone that you like ‘em!” okay, so when did he do that?“And who is this person?”“You don’t know?&rdquo
“He was your cousin and that’s why I spoke to him otherwise I am surely not dying to have a conversation with any of them. I am lying to them that I am your love but hey, surprise, I am not but at least I am I cared enough to respect whatever we have here.”“Respect? So, you know you have to respect what we have here!”Okay, this is getting on my nerves…With a twitching eyebrow, I said “Well yes, in fact I think I have more respect than you.”“Really, having interest in my brother is very respecting to whatever we have here.”“Shut up! I didn’t know he had such a past with you and even if he did, so what? Why is that my problem and how am I supposed to know that you have such interesting people around you! You have a lesbian girlfriend who cheats on anything or anyone, your brother might just be the victim here.”&ld
