“Your mum called me last night. She is the one who asked me to meet you. To knock some sense in to you. To help you out from that woman.” She said.I raised an eyebrow at her. “Do not play with me, please. You were the one who broke off the engagement. Now that it is over. Please do not interfere with my personal matter anymore. And do not drag my mom in to this. I know my mum better than you.” I said as I turned around and walked away leaving her sat there alone.***Heard what Madalynne just told me made me feel a bit disappointed at my mum. She once experienced how her daughter was not treated right. She out of all people should have been thd one who protected Jasmine. I shook my head as I decided that I want to go home.I planned a dinner with Jasmine later. I just hope that she will not back out from my plan. I do not know what I felt for Jasmine , yet. But one thing for sure that I know is, I felt much calmer when she is around. Only God knows how much I want to run back to Mada
He smiled at me, before mouthing an Ok to me and seemed that he is busy in ordering. For a minute, I thought to myself, should I tell him? Can I even trust him on this? Will he leave once he knew how messed up mu life is? Questions are flying in my head. Does he really care about me? Or he is just making it up? Once he is done and looked at me. “My mum left me when I was a week old to my dad.” I let out the words slowly.He looked at me concern. “Do not look at m with pity eyes. I do not want you to pity me.” I said. Suddenly felt offense by his stares.He shook his head, “no, go on.” He told me.I took a deep breathe. “I am an unwanted kid.” I said. He widened his eyes when he heard what I had just said. And he decided to walk to me and hugged me. “My dad hates me. Cause he said because of me, his girlfriend left him and I am a nightmare that comes to his life.” I continued.“Oh.. ssh.. that is so harsh..” he said as he tried to caressed my shoulder slowly. “I hate it. My dad never
He shook his head, “well you feel like you like it or not, you should have something to eat, I am not going to let you starve yourself.” He said. “I will just order some Takeaway. What do you feel like having?” He asked me. “Just some sandwiches are ok with me.” I answered him. Jasmine’s POVI decided to not go to the office today, I think I need a day off from everything. I sighed as I sipped my morning coffee while scrolling on my phone. It has been a while since I actually have time for myself. I wondered how would it turn out if I decided to walk away from this whole mess. Will I feel happier if so? I shook my head.“You just took over, you need to build yourself first, then you can walk out from all of this.” I said to myself. It has never been easy cause I have been underestimated for everything. I have been told that whatever I do or however I try to upgrade myself, it will never be enough for my dad. And he will always bring back the hurtful words, such as “You are such an ung
I can hear his voice is full of happiness when he answered me, “Yes, Miss Peters?”I sighed, “Mr. Fransisco, I am so sorry for the inconvenience, but I am taking my day off from the company, for our urgent meeting, my team will reach out to your team. Since my secretary will take over when I am not around.” I replied him formally too. “Oh I thought you were professional enough for things like this, Miss Peters? But I guess I was wrong?” he said. I sighed. “Joseph..” I said, “Oh so we are not going on formal anymore?” He asked.I closed my eyes, really done with him. “I am so sorry Mr. Fransisco, But I am on my leave, and all of the work related project and stuff will be handled by my secretary. I am so sorry for the inconvenience. Hope you will understand it.” I said and about to cut off the call.But before I could do so, I heard him sighed, “Where are you?” he asked.“I am so sorry but I can not tell you , Mr. Fransico.” I replied him.“Cut the act, Jasmine. Why are you avoiding m
“You said the only reason why you wanted to try and date her is to prove Madalynne that you are over her, but the is no Madalynne here. Yet you said all those words. Man, You better not lying you yourself. Or else it might come back to you one day.” He said.I shrugged my shoulder, “Well, I was just being a good friend. That’s it, nothing more and nothing less.” I answered him. “Nonetheless, she is my fake girlfriend. My family know about it.” I said. And Kyle only nodded his head on me. “But still you are trying to meddle into her private life, you realized that, right?” he asked me.I raised an eyebrow at him, “erm, no?” I said carelessly, “Well , since she is actually not in town, and I am busy with my work, you can excuse yourself out.” I said to Kyle. He laughed at me, “I am more than happy to do so. See you!” Kyle said as he walked out. I nodded my head in answer.***Jasmine’s POVLilibeth walked in my home with Korean food in her hands. “Here I come!” she said. I smiled at h
I still shook my head no, “It just not something that I think was relevant enough to tell you.” I told her. she nodded her head, “Well, now, I need to tell you this, for your information only.. You can tell me everything. And in everything, I mean every little details, do not make me miss even just a bit of it.” She said.I shook my head, “that is nothing other than that. We got drunk and I drunk called him. That’s all.” I told her.***Joseph’s POV I did not go back right to my home after work, so I decided to drive around . That is when I saw Jasmine with her friend, I squinted my eyes maybe I saw the different person. But as I got closer, I can really recognize that it is Jasmine. So I parked my car and took my phone and decided to call her, as a proof.Once it rang, the woman right across the street answer it. I smiled, this woman is really trying to challenge me?“Yes, Joseph, what is it again?” she said from the other line.I smiled, “Where are you again?” I asked her. wanted
“Okay okay, I was wrong, Ok, I am so sorry. I did not mean any of that.” I said. I saw that Jasmine is still does not care at all, then I sighed and turned to Lilibeth, I know what Jasmine meant, she wanted me to apologize to her bestfriend too. “I am also so sorry Lilibeth.” I said.Then I saw her bestfriend nodded her head, “Yeah, apology accepted. But still I will not let you date my bestfriend.” She said. “now, please excuse us, we wanted to get in to the house.” She said.I sighed, “Can we just stop the drama? Jasmine, I just wanted to talk to you.” I said.***Jasmine’s POV“Can we just stop the drama, Jasmine? I just wanted to talk to you.” I heard Joseph said. Before I sighed, and let Lilibeth get in first.“yes, what do you want to talk about now?” I asked him once we were left only the two of us.He sighed, and went to hug me, “I just missed you.” He said, and I can feel my heartbeat race up. He sounded so pure. Just like he did not make it up. Like it was from his heart.I
“I do not think that I deserve him. he came from a decent family. His mum already think that I was with him because of the company and that I got the deal becoz I dated him.” I told her.“and that stopped you?” she asked,. I shook my head, “you still do not understand? Look where he he came from, now you look where I came from..” I said.She sighed, “Jasmine, look.. that can not always stop you from live your life.” Lilibeth said. I shrugged my shoulder. Clearly do not want to discuss this anymore.***A week passed so fast that now I am getting ready for work again. In a week that I took day off, Lilibeth has always been by my side. Also last night Joseph called and told me that he will fetch me to work today, which is I agreed with.After lots of discussion with Lilibeth, I finally realized that I should live my life too at some points. My childhood trauma of how my dad and my mum ended up together can not haunt me forever. And I think maybe I should give Joseph a chance. Just as I
