2024-10-29 19:42:56The relentless east wind grew colder as it whipped past my face, distracting me away from my deep thoughts about Florian's departure. I heard him sighed beside me. When I glanced at him, I also caught him staring down at me.
I bravely looked back as I let my eyes wander around his facial features. His striking green eyes, which are my most favorite part of his face. His prominent and proud nose that enhances his manliness. The thick eyebrows, his soft and natural rosy lips, and his well-defined jawline. Everything about him is just perfect.
He held my chin as his face leaned closer towards me. His hot breath fanned over my face, sending tingles all over my body. I scooted closer, eager to close the remaining gap between us.
I sighed in anticipation. Finally, his soft lips crashed into mine. My mouth parted willingly for him, giving his tongue an access inside my mouth. I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me.&n

I looked at Florian in slight confusion when we stopped by at the waiting shed. He let go of my hand as we sauntered under the roof of the empty bus stop.“Sorry, can I borrow your phone for a bit? I just need to call my assistant for an update,” he said and I nodded in understanding before handing my phone to his waiting hand. I scooted a little farther to give him privacy.So Gaston is an assistant, huh? Is he like a secretary from their company? Like an executive assistant? Interesting.“Hello, Gaston…” his tone switched to being formal and stern. “Have you called the bank yet? I need an immediate access today… Alright, thank you so much. I’ll call again tomorrow. I need to go back home as soon as possible.”My heart sunk again as I mentally rolled my eyes at him. Why'd he have to mention that in front of me? As much as possible, I do not want to talk about his departure anymore. It'

"Florian! Are you serious?" I gasped in shock after seeing the many paper bags scattered all over our living room. I just got home that afternoon from the café. Ma'am Elizabeth stopped by at the shop today to check up on us. I had to remove Florian's name at the staff list immediately and instructed the guard to post the hiring poster again. We have yet to find a replacement for him. Florian quickly rushed towards me. I gawked at him after I noticed he's only wearing an apron without his shirt on! His biceps and chest were popping sensually! "What are these?" I gestured at the paper bags occupying half of our living room. Some of the logos plastered on them are familiar brands of expensive products I usually see on television! He smiled curtly at me. "I went shopping while you're gone for work. I bought you some dress and shoes, you can them out." I mentally face-palmed. Just how much did he spent on these? I d

"Based on a real event... huh?!" I stared wide-eyed at the screen as the movie ended. The names of the casts and production staff started rolling to herald its ending.Florian stood up to switch on the lights. We just finished watching a horror film and we had it done with the lights off to add up to the movie's eerie atmosphere. It was a good and superb movie! The plot and the acting was chef's kiss but knowing that something as disturbing as that was actually a real life event made my skin crawl."Florian..." I quickly shut off the laptop while he started cleaning up our mess. It was a fun movie night date! We bought so many snacks and he even ordered two boxes of pizza.I tugged his shirt and scooted closer to him. He raised his eyebrow at me."Sleep beside me," I pouted cutely, my grip on his shirt tightening as I move closer to him.He chuckled. "You look traumatized, Nina.""I am!" I crossed my arm

I am engaged.I couldn't wrap my head around that fact just yet when a few months ago, I was just planning to raise a cat alone and be single forever.It's easier that way. And although, I am not someone who was raised inside a non affectionate household, I still believe marriage is not for me. I believe in love, yes, as I grew up witnessing my parents' unconditional love for each other. But I don't know... I just feel like I am not destined for that.But Florian came. And he managed to bend all of those silent thoughts I used to have without lifting a finger.I exhaled happily. The diamond ring wrapping around my finger never fails to precipitate serotonin cells from me whenever I would take a look at it. Or even when I would just accidentally had my gaze on it.We headed back to Whale Bay after spending two hours of our time at the cemetery. Florian was planning to pick up Alicia later for a fancy dinner. He's been

He didn't mention a specific time. Wether he's leaving straight after we eat, or he's staying at least one more hour to kiss and hug with me, I don't know. I'm not sure. And I wanted ask but I didn't want to ruin my mood at the same time.It's awfully agitating as I sat there across the two who's obviously enjoying their food with voraciousness. My eyes kept glancing back and forth to the big round wall clock hanging behind them, as if I'm guarding the time or I could do something to pause it.Florian brought us to a fast-food restaurant, as what Alicia wishes. He filled almost all the space in our big six-seater table. He ordered two buckets of chicken and doubled every meal for each one of us. It's as if it's our last supper as I'm gawking at the amount of foods on our table.Alicia clapped jovially as she started chewing on the chicken that she's been craving for.

I wiped them off quickly. The last thing I wanted for my neighbors to see is me walking home wailing as if I'm a high schooler who got bullied at school.I blinked back my tears and gritted my teeth to force them back inside my lid.When I got back home, I immediately shut my door lock and dashed inside my room.

At least, it's not as painful as when I lost my mother and my dad.Maybe I'm just going to pretend that I'm a wife who's waiting for her husband to come back home from an overseas trip.

I slumped down directly on the bed as I scroll through the messages he left after two missed calls.Florian :Sorry about that. Are you still up?Florian :Good night, baby. I'll call you again tomorrow, sleep tight."Good night, baby. I'll call you again tomorrow, sleep tight!" I mimicked in irritation. I threw the phone to my side before pulling the blanket over my hide with slight harshness. I was rolling my eyes heavenward underneath the thin sheet.The sun was up and the neighbor's chicken was already clucking loudly when I woke up from my long slumber. I was in a hurry since I only got an hour left before my work. I didn't even bother to dress up nicely anymore.

I remembered fainting right after I set foot inside the café, but I didn’t expect to wake up on the hospital bed with Ryan sitting on the small bench across the white alcohol-scented room. His eyes sparkled in relief when he saw my conscious state. But before he could even walk towards me, the door creaked open and Regina got into me first. “Nina! You’re awake. Thank goodness! How are you feeling?” She cried out, gripping onto my cold palms tightly. I forced out a weak smile. “I feel a lot better now compared to when I woke up this morning. Thanks for bringing me here.” Her face scrunched up in a chastising manner. “Why did you even go to work today when you’re perfectly aware that you’re sick?! You’re lucky Mom wasn’t there or you’d hear an earful from her!” She said furiously. “Nina, more than anything, we prioritize our employees’ health first. A simple text or email would do, you know?” My lips curled up into a smile. I do not have

Forever doesn't exist. But with you, I'm willing to prove them wrong."After all this time?" Dumbledore asked, stupefied as Snape's memories and buried feelings slowly unfold right in front of his eyes."Always," he answered.Always. Constant. Never changing. Like my feelings for you."Angelus! Follow me to my office." Sister Anna had said, her eyes as stern as always, as if telling me that I'd be dead if I fail to set foot inside her office in ten seconds. And so, I gladly followed. But of course, right after I excused myself to my fellow orphan friends. Especially to Gaston whom I was the closest with.A man, and I presumed his wife, were seated side by side in front of Sister Anna's desk. The old man smiled warmly at me while the beautiful, elegant lady remained silent and expressionless. Her eyes mirrored the chief nun's strictness. I couldn't lock eyes with her for too long 'cause I felt as if she's judgin
