Chapter 20. Not every clownfish is called Nemo.
~~
“I still can’t believe Evan liked Athena. I mean how can anyone like her? She’s heartless.” I complained as I stuffed a fork full of Maggi in my mouth.
“Maybe she’s just pretending you know.” Zivah said, trying to get the Maggi in her chopsticks.
I rolled my eyes at her failed attempts at using the chopsticks. “Will you stop that? Just use a fork.”
Zivah pouted, trying one more time before sighing and placing the chopsticks on the table with force. “Stupid long sticks, so useless. The people in Korean drama use it so effortlessly.”
“That’s because they have been using it since childhood. For you, it’s been 10 minutes.” I muttered, almost finishing the Maggi on my plate. “Hurry up and eat it Ziv.&rd

Chapter 21. We are meant to be together. “Are you sure about this?”I continued scratching the back of my neck, staring at the page I had to sign before I could enter.“You don’t have to do this.”I have to, you have no idea how much.I thought to myself. Finally, I took a deep breath and sighed. I took the pen and signed my name in the book.“That way.” A disinterested hefty woman tilted her head at the door, not even glancing up as she continued to flip through an adult magazine. Both her legs on the table and her chair leaned back, she clearly didn’t care much about this job.I turned and smiled at Alex. “I am sure. I want to see him.”Ray Parker was going on trial in two days and I wanted to see him before I never had a chance to again. He was a friend at one point and I couldn’t carry this guilt around anymore.
Hacked Hearts Chapter 22
Chapter 22. Pick a movie from Netflix.The scariest part isn't the feeling of loneliness or the darkness surrounding the intense pain or even the depths of ignorance.It's the realization that you have intentionally surrendered yourself to isolation, deprived yourself of emotions, lost the ability to smile and sold your soul to agony.And I had lost the ability to smile. I had lost the ability to feel anything except for that creeping hollow of pain in my abdomen and the strong waves of loneliness in my heart.I just lay there, in the dark, staring at the blank ceiling. No matter how many times I tried, no matter how many times I called, no matter what I messaged, the response had been the same – none.I didn’t have tears in me anymore, I wanted to cry. I did. But I was empty. I had cried too much, the pillow had stains all over it and so did my Panda blanket. So instea

Chapter 23. Do you want to get coffee after this?I was sitting in the café Alex had first taken me, wondering how my life had come to this. It had been two months since I had lost my job at Bianchi Enterprises as a hacker. It had been more than two months since I had last seen Alex. And for the last one month, even the media didn’t know where the famous eligible bachelor was.I sighed, placing the coffee mug on the table and leaning my head back, staring out of the window and my mind took me into memory lane, 8 years back.I was a teenager then and still deciding on what to do with my future. Among the few friends I had during school, I had one friend that many didn’t know of. A pen pal.We had never physically met but occasionally talked on this app where we could connect with people of similar interests. Sometimes it’s easier to share your emotions with people you don’t know per

Chapter 24. Let’s start with how you broke my trust.He threw the newspapers at my feet. “How the hell do you know my sister?”And just like that everything I had thought of, every story, every reality, every truth disappeared. And my mind turned blank.The axis of my world had tilted.Fate, my dear, can be a tricky friend.There were a thousand words I had thought of saying to Alex Bianchi when I would first see him. A hundred ways to frame the sentences and tens of ways to explain everything. But now sitting in front of him, on the 23rd floor in his B building, holding a cup of hot coffee – all I could think of was –What the bloody hell?I started at the milk coffee, hot vapors dancing over my face, both my palms now numb to the heat from the mug. I was breathing steadily yet I felt the blood in my brains was vanishing.Instead of giving Alex

Are you ready for this????--Chapter 25. Alex Bianchi jealous? As if.“No, I don’t want to watch that.”“Come on! I heard it’s really amazing.”“No, I don’t watch Netflix. I watch the News.”I snorted. “That’s why you are so boring.”Alex glared at me. “I am not boring.”“Then watch it with me.” I smiled, raising my eyebrows, daring him to say no.Alex groaned, closing his laptop. “Fine but just one episode.”“Two.” I bargained, grinning and starting the first episode.“No, one.” Alex argued, groaning as he sat and seized the popcorn bowl from my bowl.“Hey!” I protested, reaching for my cheese popcorn.Alex leaned back, his arm with the popcorn bowl stretching behind his back. “I am watching this stupid ser

Chapter 26. Alex can dance to Beyoncé’s Single Ladies.“Act normal.”I furrowed my eyebrows. “What’s that supposed to mean?”Alex's hand left mine as he stepped out of the elevator on the top floor. He didn’t even glance back. “Just don’t be.” He paused. “-you.”I scoffed, walking at a brisk pace trying to match his pace. “What isthatsupposed to mean?”Alex ignored my question. He stopped briefly at the door of the rooftop lounge. “Under the name Ricci or asshole.”The desk staff was a pretty lady dressed in navy blue vest and skirt uniform with a golden bow tie. She seemed taken aback at Alex’s words. “Sorry, Sir. What was the reservation name again?”Alex exhaled loudly as if tired of taking the name over a hundred times already. “Ricci. Sebastian As

Chapter 27. Sometimes we forget to take care of the things we love.“Have they caught the guy from Athena’s hit and run yet?”Alex looked up from his laptop at my sudden question. “No, the license plate was a fake and the nearby cameras caught the image but he was wearing a cap so his face is not visible.”I sighed, slumping down the couch beside him. “Why would anyone target Athena?” I put up my legs on the table and crossed my ankles.Alex lightly slapped my thigh. “Feet off the table. How many times should I tell you?”I twisted my lips in annoyance but reluctantly kept my feet back on the floor.“I am not sure. But we are tracking it down.”I scratched the back of my neck, staring the plain glass table in front.“What?”So lost in my thought, I jolted when Alex’s hand touched my shoulder.

Chapter 28. Karma is my long lost friend. I was standing at the place I didn’t think I would ever see again. I stared at the barred gates and security guards walking around.The same lady was sitting at the desk again, her feet on the table as she flipped through a Vogue magazine.“Damn those skinny bitches.” She muttered under her breath, staring at the pages and turning them violently.I swallowed blinking and looking around, wondering if this was a wrong decision. No one knew I was here, Alex thought I was with Zivah and Zivah thought I was with Alex, if those two talked now – I would be so screwed.But I needed to this – to confess.As much as Ray Parker deserved this, my unconscious mind hadn’t been able to sleep for the past many months. The guilt was weighing me down and with each passing second, it was drawing a hole in my heart.Maybe Athena was right

I am excited too.”“It’s going to be special.” I sighed.“And magical.” Alex held my hand. “It’s going to be a long night.”I winked at Alex. “I am looking forward to it. Did you get it?”Alex took out a packet from his pocket waving it in front of me. “Right here.”I took a deep breath, taking the packet and examining it. “This should work. It’s dotted.”“Your favorite.”“Great I’ll take this dotted net bag to Athena and put the wedding rings in it.” I

Ready to cry?Grab tissues if you must.--Chapter 43. You say you love him but you couldn’t even protect him.After fifteen minutes of vigorous thinking, we had come up with a plan – scream and bang on the door till someone opens it.So we started screaming and hitting the door with our fists.“Hello!? Open the door.”“We are harmless. Open the door.”I gave Alex a ‘what the fuck’ look. “Harmless?Whoneeds to know that?”Alex shrugged. “You don’t know it could be the police out there.”I pointed at the door, motioning him to listen to the childish squeals and yells. “That isnotthe police.” I strained my ears suddenly freezing in shock. “Is that Zivah?”Alex touched his ear to the door. “And Evan?”
Hacked Hearts Chapter 42.
Chapter 42. I should make you wear my red lingerie.I started at the creepy line of warehouses with a shiver running down my spine. There were three and all of them looked worn down.How did Athena even know about this place? Or was it Ray’s idea?Either way, the place was old, deserted, and looked pretty haunted. Perfect for hiding. Perfect for killing.I took small steps towards the first warehouse, my car was parked a few blocks away to avoid attention. My eyes scanned over the place but it was so silent except for the annoying noise of crickets.As I neared the place I paused straining my ears to hear any movement or noise from inside the warehouses but it was still silent. I wondered if they were even in there, maybe it was just a hoax. I quickly looked around for any signs of cameras but I couldn’t see them either.“Wow.” I whispered to myself. “I can’t bel

Chapter 41. I am in love with Ray.I glared at the stupid fish and picked it up. “Die, Lena, die.” I said to it in rage and threw the fish against the wall.It hit the wall and fell on the ground and then Lena spoke, freezing all three of us.“Relax Myra. It’s not from your ex-boyfriend. It’s from your future husband.”Ray Parker’s haughty cackle was the one to haunt me forever.“So are we burning that fish now?”I stared at the talking fish in ultimate horror.“Is-” I took in a shaky breath, clutching on the couch for support, afraid that I might faint from shock and fear. “Is that Ray?”“I am afraid so.” Zivah’s voice shook, coming closer to me. I could feel the waves of fear coming from her too. “Do you think he can see and hear us?” she whispered into my ears.I continued t

The book is soon coming to an end :(--Chapter 40. You look like a trash can that’s been around for 20 years.“I still can’t believe that numbnut broke up with me. With me.” I scoffed, not denying that it surely hurt my ego.“Let it go.” Evan said. “It has been more than two weeks.”I narrowed my eyes at him. “Where is your girlfriend anyways? She has disappeared. No calls, no messages. Are you sure she isn’t cahooting with the enemy?”Evan flinched and I could see the hurt in his eyes but I didn’t care. He leaned towards Zivah. “What is with her?”Zivah rolled her eyes. “She’s gone mad. It’s the breakup fever. She’s throwing truth bombs which will hurt. Ignore her. I know I am.”Evan nodded but gave me a stink eye. In response, I sent him a deadly glare.I looked back a

I had barely survived.“Myra, you need to drink water.” Zivah demanded, pushing the glass of water into my hand.I didn’t protest. I just drank the tasteless liquid and gave the empty glass back to her. “I don’t understand.” I breathed out. “Why-why would he break up overthat?”Zivah patted my back lightly. “Look he was just angry, frustrated, and tired. I am sure he didn’t mean it.”I scoffed at her words. “Didn’t mean it? Did you forget the whole scene?” I smiled in a taunting manner. “Let me remind you.”Flashback.He opened his eyes, his eyes hardening a little. “I- uh -we- we have been hacked again.”My jaw dropped and for a second so did my breathing

You are the pet dog I never had.“No.”“Oh come on!”“I said no.”“Pretty please?”“She said no.”I glared at Evan. “Shut up!”Zivah rolled her eyes. “It’s too fast.”I scoffed. “No, it’s not. It’s been almost a year.”“You can’t count the four months you two didn’t date.”I threw my head back in frustration. “Zivah, I really want to live with him.” I sighed. “I love him.”“And I love you but I am not asking you to live with me. Am I?” Evan shouted.I frowned at him. “Why are you even here?”“Because I was bored.”I gritted my teeth. “I am going to tell Athena that you want to live with me.”Eva

Maybe you should propose for marriage before I do.“I cannot believe you watched two episodes without me!”“Hey, you said you didn’t like Netflix.”“But you got me addicted to it!”“Well, that’s not my issue.” I meekly replied.Alex glared at me. “Fine, I’ll change the password and not give it to you.”I gasped and pointed my finger in warning. “You wouldn’t dare.”Alex smirked. “Try me!”“I knew it was a mistake introducing you to the Netflix series.”Alex grabbed the remote and folded his hands. “Now I will watch the two episodes while you wait till I complete it.”I groaned, falling back on the couch. “That’s not fair!”“You watching it without me is not fair.” He snapped back, slapping my feet o
