19“Are you sure about this? I’m scared that her mom is going to scold us.” Blaine said.“We have to bring her home anyway. She’ll find her and I don’t want to lie to her mom.”I’m down together with Faye who’s laying her head on the table, the same as my position and I can very much clearly hear the two talking but I’m tired and I just want to stay here because my head really hurts and I’m sure my mom will blurt out when she sees me like this.“I’ll carry her. You carry your girlfriend.” I heard Asher said and the next thing I know I’m being carried. I’m holding on Asher’s neck tightly while my head is laying on his chest which I can hear the beating of his heart. We look at each other’s eyes and the next thing I knew my eyes fall and fell asleep.**“Oh, Fuck.” I hold my temple the moment I close my eyes but it widen when I saw my mom sitting in the corner of my bed with piercing eyes. She doesn’t speak but look at me. I bit my lips but the moment I try to get I feel like my puking
20“You know that Harry is an ass right? He just can’t do this to you. You two are acting like children for being so immature on how you handle your relationship.”“What I did was unacceptable too, Faye. I found comfort in another man’s embrace and he witness that. I’m at fault too.”“But if you two weren’t fighting you would’ve come to him but he was being a jackass and he didn’t care why you were sad, he just care about the part where Asher was comforting you.”“You’re just saying that because we’re friends but what will you feel when you see Blaine embracing someone else too? I bet you would be hurt and think that he’s cheating on you, and that’s Harry’s perspective.” I said that made her silent.“So, what are you planning to do? Are you just going to let your relationship with him slip? Tell me, does he really matter to you? Because right now I think he’s not important, you should be worried about the happenings of your family not him. You’re experiencing family problem and that’s
21“Mom, do we really have to do this? This is just absurd. I can’t believe this is happening.”Mom nodded and didn’t even look at me. “It’s the least we can do, Myles.”“What do you mean by that? Dad doesn’t deserve even the least mom and you know that! I hate this, don’t we have shame?”“Myles! He’s still your father and yes we’re going because he stayed for us even though we were divorce, for your sake.” She said and look at me through the mirror.I bit my lips and shook my head. “I know that mom but I don’t want to be there and act like this is okay for me because the truth is I’m hurting and going to his wedding will do more damage than good.”“I’m sorry, honey but I promise your dad and you know promises are sacred and I like to keep mine.”“Well, for dad promises aren’t sacred because the moment he chose someone else even after you got married all his promises were broken mom. I hope you realize that.” I close my eyes tight. “I’m sorry, that was out of line. I’ll be waiting in
22“Is it true?”“What’s true?”“That you were cheating and if you are tell it to me immediately.” Even if I had told Asher that I don’t believe him and that Harry wouldn’t do that to me, I still can’t help but ask him. It’s been bothering me for a while and we had a fight but that didn’t stop me from talking to him about it.“What are you talking about? I won’t do that to you. I know I was a jerk last time but I realize my mistake now. I cherish you and you’re important to me.” He said but his face looks gloomy and I’m scared because my friendship with Asher just ended and what if he’s right? Not only did I loose my boyfriend but I also lost my best friend.“Okay. Thank you for telling me.” I smiled and left him and begin to walk towards my classroom where Asher is sitting in his usual seat.When he saw that I enter the room he immediately look at me or maybe wait for me to sit on his side but I sat a few chairs from him that made some girl sit on my usual seat.I pouted and look awa
23“Miss Myles?”“Yes?” I stood up from my chair still can’t believe that I just saw Asher… again after the wedding.“Let’s go.” She said that made me confuse but still followed her. I didn’t really had the change to ask her where we’re going but I already had my speculation the moment we stop walking and stop at the door the boss’ office… Asher’s office.“What are we doing here?” I nervously asked. I don’t really know how to face Asher right now. I didn’t expect him to be my boss and years of being friends why didn’t he even mention that his family own this company? Is that why when I was overlooking this company his mom appeared out of nowhere? It’s all making sense now but even after realizing that I’m still not ready to meet him as he saw me in my lowest and it still hurt me every night how easily I threw our friendship away for Harry--Harry who doesn’t care about me and hurt me more than I can remember.“Oh, the CEO wanted to meet you.” She smile and knock the door before openin
24“I can go home on my own you know? I’m not a little kid anymore.” I said to Asher as he walk me outside.“My mom insisted I should take you home. Let’s just go, plus they would hate it when they’re not sure that you got home safe.”I pouted. He has a point but I hate that he has the last say.“Fine.” I said and walk to the passenger side of his car. “Open the door.” I said as I can’t open it. He didn’t and walk towards me before clicking something before opening the door for me. “I can do it you know if you had clicked it.”He just shrugged and walk to the driver’s side. We drove in silent after I told him my address and now that we’re here in my apartment I don’t know why he went down on his car too.“What are you doing? I’m already here, you can go now. Thank you for the ride.”“I want to walk you home. Just to make sure.” he put his hands on his pocket. Oh, did I mention that he;s still wearing his button down shirt with his slacks that perfectly hugged his biceps in place?“I c
25“Hey! Wake up.” I scratch my eye and open it a little and when I saw mom I immediately sit on the bed and look at her in confusion.“Why am I here? And not my own house.”“Asher took you here.” She smirk when she mention his name. “He said he doesn’t know the pass code of your apartment.” She chuckle. “That only means he knows where you live.” She shook her head before going out of the room that made me more shock of what’s happening right now.It made me wonder how did she know where my mother lives, this isn’t the same house we used to live in the past, but when I saw the clock hanging in the wall of my room I immediately hurry and get ready for work.“Fuck.” I curse a hundred of words hoping it will move much faster so I could go to work in time but right now I doubt I have that chance given the circumstances. I’m still dizzy and I feel like throwing up but hell I need to work although I’m a little embarrass to go especially that I’m having a hangover.“You’re not eating” I’m st
26“Why did you do that? You could’ve said that in a nice way.” After Nicole left so angry about what happen Asher called me in his office and now his leaning back on his swivel chair and massaging his temple.“She was being rude and I don’t like being treated that way… I’m not like before… I change.” and so does you, I wanted to add that but I stop myself before I could say it, he’s still my boss in every angle I look at.“She’s has the second biggest shares in the company, and even though the company can handle without them some investors are going to question why they backed out and they will soon do it too.”I didn’t realize how that would affect the business. I look down on my feet and biting my lips. My tears are behind my eye and I refuse to look at his disappointed face, and also because I might cry in front of him and that would totally suck and unprofessional of me. “I’m sorry.” I gulp as my voice crack a little.“Myles.” He calls me by my name in a soft voice. If I wasn’t g
29I don’t know what to feel the moment I open my eyes. Asher’s arm are wrapped around my stomach and I can feel his breathe from my neck and every time he hit me with his warm breathe I get tingles on my toes and butterfly on my stomach.“That really happen?” I whispered to myself but I immediately covered my mouth as I realize that I said that out loud. I then look at Asher, he’s still sleeping peacefully and I can’t help but pout as I get a clear view of his face up close.I touch his cheeks to his forehead to his nose and to his lips and I can’t help but admire how really good looking he is, and he’s not Asher my boss who’s constantly scowling but seeing like this remind me of him when we were still in high school.“Do you like what you’re seeing?” I gulp as Asher suddenly move and open his eyes. He has this smirk on his face as he pull me closer to him while kissing me on the neck, with that move I can’t help but bite my lips and stay silent as he cuddle me.“We should eat breakf
28I look at Faye feeling betrayed and she just smile at me feeling sorry.“It totally slipped my mind especially that I wasn’t given a time to say that… and even if I did say it to you it will be to late and you’re going to see each other anyway.”“You don’t know that. I can run you know and I drive really fast just to avoid him.” She only shake her head as I said that.“You guys know that we’re here right? That we can clearly hear what you two are talking about?” Blaine said that made me realize another mistake and when I look at Asher he has this annoying smirk on his face that made me scowl at him.“I don’t think I can stay any longer.”“Oh you can’t say that now, I’ve already cook and ready the table while you stole my wife.” I rolled my eyes at Blaine and Faye laugh as she drag me together with the kids to the dinning area and Asher was just smiling at the scene.“I didn’t know you come here.” Asher suddenly said while Blaine and Faye are busy with their kids… and probably liste
27I don’t know when he’ll come back and for the past few days that he has been away I notice a change between myself. I notice that have been putting up extra care of how I look.I know I will not match up to Nicole’s luxury branded clothes but it’s doesn’t matter because I shouldn’t compare myself to her… we’re far from each other and there’s only one common thing about us… and that’s liking Asher.I smirk as I thought of that, I shouldn’t be smirking about that but the truth is I don’t know how I could say that to myself now. It felt weird, I used to disregard that thought but now I can freely think about it… even though it’s hardly impossible to his after I blew up my chance with him to be with a boy that only did dirty on me.“Good morning.” I said to Glen and she smirk.“It is a good morning, did you heard? Our boss is back.” My eyes widen and she smirk after seeing my reaction. “Just like I thought.” She chuckle as she sit on her swivel chair and I suddenly felt conscious as I
