Althea nearly choked on her drink, prompting her coworkers to rush to her aid.

"Take it easy, okay?" Milan, who was seated by her side, said, gently rubbing her back.

As Althea coughed uncontrollably, attracting attention from everyone around them, Aura and Katarina stepped in to reassure everyone that she was alright.

Katarina offered Althea her glass of water, and after a few sips, Althea's breathing began to stabilize.

"Are you feeling better now?" Aura asked with concern.

"Yeah," Althea managed to respond between breaths.

"Are you sure?" Katarina pressed.

"I am," Althea replied, her panting breath slowing down.

"What happened? Why did you choke on your drink?" Milan inquired, worried.

"Nothing," Althea lied.

"Come on, we're all in this together. We told you our secrets, so you should do the same and not lie to us," Milan urged.

"Well, technically, it's not your secret but the boss's," Althea pointed out.

"But we shared it with you, so it still counts," Aura argued.

    After having lunch, Althea felt more energized, ready to tackle on the remaining workload that stood before her. Diving right in, she was interrupted mid-task by Mr. Amos's secretary, a petite, red-haired woman with blue eyes. Dressed in sage green pants, a beige shirt, and black heels, her hair tied up in a neat bun, she approached Althea's desk. "Good afternoon, Mrs. Wilson," Corelle greeted Althea, her voice smooth and respectful, aware that Althea could easily take her position if she wanted to in the blink of an eye. "Good afternoon, Corelle," Althea replied with a friendly smile. "What brings you here?" She asked, closing the file she was working on. "Mr. Amos would like to see you. He'd like to review the JHS project file with you before the meeting, which is scheduled to begin in an hour. He requests that you meet him in the boardroom where the meeting will be held," Corelle relayed Mr. Amos's instructions professionally and politely. "The meeting is in an hour? I almost f

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   ALTHEA!

    Adam's gaze was icy as he entered the room, his eyes fixed on Althea. "I apologize if I interrupted something intimate between you two," he said, his tone dripping with sarcasm. Althea felt a pang of hurt, wondering why Adam would assume something intimate was happening between her and her boss. What did he think of her? "Intimate? Don't be ridiculous, Adam. We were just having a conversation," Amos replied, unaware of the underlying tension. Adam's smile was malicious as he took his seat, his eyes locked intensely on Althea. "A conversation, huh? It sounded kind of funny." he said, his gaze roaming over her body before resting on her eyes. Althea's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't understand why she felt nervous under his scrutiny Amos gestured towards Althea, "It really was. Althea is a jokester, Adam." But Adam's raised brow and curt smile only made Althea more uncomfortable. With a professional tone, Althea spoke up, "I'll leave you two to discuss. I assume you have

    Althea's eyes creaked open, only to shut tight again against the piercing light above. She groaned, rubbing her temple, and attempted to sit up, but a gentle voice urged her back down. "Stay back, dear, you're not stable enough to get up." The voice was faint, but Althea recognized it instantly. "Mom?" she called out, blinking rapidly to clear her blurry vision. "I'll go get the doctor, dear," Mrs. Ruiz replied, exiting the room. "Mom? Are you there?" Althea called out, hearing the door close. "I'm here, Althea," Bella's voice reassured her. "Mom will be back soon. Just rest now, sister." As Althea's eyes finally adjusted to the light, she turned to face Bella's worried expression. "I missed you so much, Bella," Althea confessed, reaching out to caress her cheek. "I missed you too, sister," Bella replied, concern etched on her face. "It hasn't been long since you left, and now you're sick? Is Adam a bad person?" Althea chuckled softly. "Adam isn't a bad person," she clari

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   HIS FAVORITE COLOR

    Althea retired to her bedroom, still reeling from her conversation with Hilda. Despite Adam's hurtful words, she refused to let them dampen her spirits. After a refreshing shower and settling into bed, she reflected on Adam's words and her heart raced with excitement. She reached for her phone, hesitating for a moment before deciding to call Timothy the next day. “Tomorrow. He might be exhausted. I'll call him tomorrow.” she said her hand hovering over Timothy's phone number. The next morning, Althea woke up feeling revitalized. She hummed a tune as she got ready, her beauty radiating in a stunning red gown. With a deep breath, she dialed Timothy's number as she sat on her bed, not hesitant like yesterday, her heart skipping a beat as she waited for him to answer. After two rings, Timothy finally picked up. "Timothy?" Althea called softly, her voice trembling with emotion, after a moment of silence had reigned. Althea waited with bated breath to hear a response from him. "I p

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   THE DINING ROOM

    Althea trembled beneath Adam's intense gaze, struggling to maintain her composure. "I-I didn't know," she stuttered in response to the question he had asked, her voice shaky. Adam's eyes gleamed with desire as he pulled her closer, his whispered words sending shivers down her spine. "Are you trying to seduce me?" he growled, his hot breath on her ear, his restraint on her hands unyielding "No," Althea whispered, her voice almost inaudible as she shook her head slowly. “I think you are.” Adam's purr was a low, husky whisper in her ear, his nibbles sending waves of heat through her. Althea let out gasp, heat rising from within her, her cheeks flushing to a crimson red as Adam inhaled her scent, his eyes darkened with longing. "Mhmm… you smell divine." He muttered, his voice a low rumble. “Adam, I don't think—” Althea tried to say but his finger on her lips silenced her protests. “Don't you dare say it. Don't make me get angry.” He warned seductively, his eyes gleaming

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   THE NOTE

    Althea retreated to her room, her body coursing with longing for Adam's touch. She yearned for him inside her. Unable to calm her thoughts, she paced back and forth, her mind replaying the intense moments they shared in the dining room. She scolded herself, "Forget him, Althea! Move on!" But her desire only intensified. She couldn't shake off the memories of his touch, his kisses, and his piercing gaze. She took a seat at the edge of her bed, shaking one of her legs as she placed her thumb on her teeth. “I can't forget about him, tea!” She said to herself in frustration as she stood up. “I want him. I want him inside of him. I want to feel his touch on my skin. How can I possibly forget about him after all that happened in there?!” She asked herself rhetorically, running her hands through her hair. A knock at the door made her heart race, and she froze, assuming it was Adam on the other side. Her reluctance to answer revealed the depth of her craving for him. She was afraid of

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   SAY HIS NAME

    Upon entering the apartment, Althea remained frozen near the entrance, taking in the dusty and disheveled space, a sight that surprised her. Timothy, unaware of her hesitation, had already settled on the couch. "Come sit, tea," he invited, but when Althea didn't join him, he turned to find her still standing, her eyes scanning the room. "Sorry, I haven't had time to properly clean up the house," Timothy apologized, sensing her thoughts. Althea forced a smile and approached him, sitting beside him on the couch. "That's okay, you only just got back yesterday," she assured him. “I know how much you're a neat freak.” Timothy acknowledged, taking a seat close to her. “Me? A neat freak?” Althea pointed at herself, a light chuckle escaping her lips. Timothy smiled, "It's good to hear you laugh. It's been a while," he said, his voice filled with emotion, as memories of his ordeal flooded back. "Being in there, I had almost forgotten the sound of happiness or what it looked like

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   SHE KNEW WITH EVERY FIBER OF HER BEING

    "What the fuck just happened?" Althea asked herself inwardly, staring at Timothy in disbelief, noting that it was the second time she was cursing that day, a rare occurrence for her. If she wasn't struggling to catch her breath and trying to think of an explanation to give Timothy for what had just happened while still grappling with convincing herself that Adam wasn't the reason she pulled away from the kiss, she would have probably been popping open a bottle of champagne and celebrating herself along with Kathryn for the bad girl she had become. Her deed; cussing twice in one day. It was such a great feat to her. But as much as she wanted to give into the thought of a possible party with her girlfriend for her new bad girl era, she knew she had to tend to the situation at hand. “What happened, tea? Did I do something wrong? Or did you not like it?” Timothy asked, concern etched on his battered face. Althea cringed inwardly at Timothy's last question. It was one of her irks. She
