CONGRATULATIONS!!!

“I cannot believe this!!!” I screamed as I threw my purse at my boyfriend who I had just seen rolling on his bed together with my bestfriend, Layla. “Vanessa omg, it’s not what you think,” Layla pleaded as she began to put on her clothes. Bart on the other hand remained on the bed, as if he didn’t care that I had just caught him sleeping with my bestfriend. “Explain all this to me right now!” I demanded. “How long has this been going on Layla?” I tearfully asked. “U-ugh, I-I,” Layla stammared. I rushed to her and grabbed her by her blonde hair. “Stop stammering and tell me when you started sleeping with my boyfriend you bitch!!” “Enough of this noise!” Bart demanded as he stood up from the bed and put on his robe. “We’ve been sleeping with each other under your nose for the past three months, all through summer,” He said with a smirk. I couldn’t even believe my ears. I had told Layla about all the troubles Bart and I had been going through and she kept on advising m

IT’S OVER

“Come on in Vanessa,” Antonio said as he used his hand to usher me in. I walked into his home and the house felt warm and cozy. “You have a nice place,” I said as I picked up a black vase and admired the inscriptions all over it. “Oh that, Blair got it for me on our third year anniversary,” He replied with a smile. “How thoughtful,” I said with a bit of sarcasm. How could she buy him a vase for their anniversary, I thought to myself. For a man like Antonio I would give him the world. “Here is your room Vanessa,” He said as he opened the door to a beautiful bedroom painted in pink with pink bed spreads and sheets. “Omg, thank you Antonio,” I said as I threw my arms around him to give him a hug. “A-hem,” Blair cut in as she watched me wrap my arms around her fiance. “It was Blair’s idea to make it pink themed actually,” Antonio said as he broke out of the hug to hold Blair’s hand. “Yeah, I figured it was best for someone your age,” Blair said. “Age? What does th

LET’S GET DRUNK!!

“What do you mean by you’re not engaged any more?” I asked with my eyes widened as shock was evident in my face. “Uhm, it’s personal kiddo,” He replied me with a warm smile. I took the opportunity to grab his hands and stared deeply into his eyes. “You know you can count on me for anything,” I said as I continued looking deeply into his eyes. “Come here kiddo,” He said as he pulled me in for a hug. This hug was different from the ones he had been giving me since I had moved in. His arms were wrapped around my waist while mine were placed on his shoulders. His palms grazed around my lower back which awakened this sensation in me. All I could think about at that moment was to kiss him, perhaps that was also what he thought. I looked at him as we were still locked in the embrace and the hug became more intense. We both looked at each other and our lips were slowly about meet when he suddenly pulled away. “Had any to eat yet?” He asked as he nervously brought out a ja

CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET?

I have never been as happy as I was today. I woke up in the arms of the first crush I have ever had in my life.I turned to my side and saw Antonio deeply asleep. Looking at him flooded my mind with the passionate night we had shared.The way he held, kissed and passionately made love to me was all I could think about.Just then Antonio started to awaken. I quickly closed my eyes so that he would think I had been asleep all this while.“Uhm, Vanessa?” Antonio called out as he tapped my shoulders and yawned.“Ugh,” I replied as I turned to face him.“Morning Vanessa.”“Morning Antonio,” I said with a smile but unfortunately for me my smile wasn’t reciprocated.“I hope you will keep what happened last night as a secret,” He asked with a straight face.“Uhm, sure yeah,” I replied as I sat up on the floor.“Thanks, it’s for the best. What happened must never repeat itself,” He said, then stood up from the floor and packed his things and went up to his room.I sat there looking and feeli

AN UNEXPECTED DATE

I stared at the email, my heart pounding in my chest. "I KNOW YOUR SECRET." My hands hovered over the keyboard as I tried to think of what to say back. What secret could they possibly know? Antonio and I had been so careful… or so I thought.I don't have a secret, I typed out, my fingers shaking slightly. You must have the wrong person.I hit send before I could second-guess myself. There was no way someone could know what happened between Antonio and me. It was just a one-time thing, and no one else was there.Maybe this was just a prank, someone trying to mess with me for fun. But who would do that? Antonio? Jenny? No, it couldn’t be them. They had no reason to.I waited for a few minutes, staring at my phone, hoping for a quick reply that would reveal this was all a joke. But nothing came. The screen stayed stubbornly blank, the email thread mocking me with its silence.I need to stop overthinking this, I told myself. It's probably nothing. I set my phone down on my bedside table a

THE BITCH IS BACK!

I couldn’t believe my eyes. Blair was standing right in front of me, with that smug look on her face like she had something to prove. My brain was screaming at me to get her out of the house. Without thinking, I blurted out the first thing that came to mind.“Antonio isn’t here,” I said quickly, the words stumbling out in a rush. I stepped back, already reaching for the door.My heart was pounding, and I felt like if I didn’t get rid of her soon, something terrible was going to happen. “You should probably go—"Before I could finish the sentence and slam the door shut, Blair didn’t even flinch.Instead, as I tried to close the door, it stopped with a sudden jolt—someone was holding it open from the outside. My heart skipped a beat, and I looked up, only to see Antonio standing there.“Antonio?” I stammered, my voice shaking slightly. My stomach flipped as I met his eyes, and I quickly pulled my hand back from the door, unsure of what to do. Antonio pushed the door open wider and step

A GLASS OF WHISKEY

My mind was spinning as I walked out of the diner with Jason. I had tried to shake off the nagging worry from the text message, but it lingered like an unwelcome shadow.My thoughts were scattered, and the weight of the unknown mailer’s threat was becoming more suffocating by the minute.Jason seemed to notice my unease as we approached his car. “Hey, are you okay?” he asked, concern evident in his voice. “You look pretty shaken up.”I forced a smile, trying to mask my anxiety. “It’s nothing. I just… need to go home.”Jason didn’t press further. Instead, he nodded understandingly. “No problem. I can give you a ride.”I appreciated his offer, though I was torn between feeling grateful and guilty for cutting our evening short.As we drove through the quiet streets, I stared out the window, my thoughts a chaotic mess of worry and frustration. The steady hum of the car’s engine did little to calm the storm inside me.When we finally reached my house, I felt a wave of relief mixed with app

A GIRLFRIEND?

I stared at Antonio in stunned silence as his words echoed in my mind. My heart pounded in my chest, and I found myself unable to process what he had just said.“Say it again,” I moaned, my voice barely more than a whisper, but the words came out as a plea.Antonio didn’t respond. Instead, he slowly got off his stool, his movements deliberate and almost painful to watch.Without another word, he turned and headed upstairs, leaving me alone in the kitchen. The sound of his footsteps fading away only added to the emptiness that filled the room.I exhaled deeply, my emotions a tangled mess. I grabbed the whiskey bottle and took another gulp, hoping it would help numb the confusion and heartache.* * *The days following that night were a blur. Two weeks had passed, and the atmosphere between Antonio and me had become unbearably strained.We hadn’t spoken a word about that night, or to each other at all. The silence was almost louder than any argument could have been.I tried to push

BIRTHDAY CHAOS

I’d barely had any sleep last night, my mind still tangled with worries and unanswered questions. As I entered, I was surprised to find Antonio in the kitchen, wearing an apron and busily flipping pancakes.“Good morning,” I said, trying to sound cheerful despite the fatigue weighing down on me.Antonio glanced up briefly, his face impassive. “Morning,” he mumbled, his attention quickly returning to his pancakes.I hesitated, unsure if I should bring up the awkwardness from the previous days, but the silence between us felt suffocating. “So, is this how you want to keep being? Just ignoring me?”Antonio chuckled, a sound that seemed to lack genuine warmth. “Why would I be angry at you?”My heart skipped a beat at his casual dismissal. “You know, about me having a boyfriend and what you said that night...”Before I could finish, Antonio cut me off. “Oh, that was nothing.”Just as I was about to respond, Blair waltzed into the kitchen, her face lit up with a smile. She looked from Anton

HEARTBREAK

I stood up from the bed, hastily adjusting my dress, my heart pounding as if it were going to burst out of my chest. This wasn’t how things were supposed to happen. My fingers shook as I smoothed down the fabric, trying to regain some composure.“Jenny, I can explain,” I said, my voice trembling with desperation, but Jenny was already walking out of the room, her heels clicking sharply against the hardwood floor.I whipped around to face Antonio, my mind racing. “I have to go after her. I can’t let her leave like this.”Antonio’s jaw tightened, but he nodded. “Go. Talk to her.”Without another word, I hurried out of the room, my heart racing as I followed the path Jenny had taken. I caught sight of her near the bar, standing there like nothing had happened, but I could see the tension in her shoulders. She asked the server for a glass of champagne. I ran over just as the server handed her the drink.“Jenny,” I said, standing beside her, trying to catch my breath. “I know you’re shoc
