Hasty Feisty ch. 8 | FIRST FREEDOM AND LIE
I'm currently in my room, dressing up as today is the day when I'll finally visit my stepmother in the hospital after a week."I accepted the offer..." I thought. "Meaning I'll get to visit my stepmother and maybe step outside for a while."The credibility is low, but Allura still has a glimmer of hope, like a little flame burning brightly in her heart, filling the void left by the past."Where is she? Why is she taking so long?" Leo groaned as he looked at his wristwatch. The men are waiting downstairs, except for Zacharias who handled some business."She's probably still changing. They always take longer. Get used to it." Lorenzo answered as he lit up a cigarette."I don't have time for this," Leo said."Neither do I," Toshiro said in ennui. "I better not see some minions in that damn hospital." "Security. Twenty-four seven." Lorenzo answered while making gestures after taking his cigarette out."I'll check her," Leo grunted as he went upstairs.Leo knocked on her door, but there
Hasty Feisty ch. 9 | THOSE WHO ARE SUPERIOR TO YOU
I threw the paper on the wall, finding it useless."Gosh! Where did I put that?" I groaned as I looked back and saw that my room was a mess, clothes scattered everywhere with papers, pillows, and more.I threw a pillow recklessly, not knowing where it would land, then the door suddenly opened and the pillow flew straight to him. "The fuck-- Allura?" Lorenzo said, dodging as he caught the pillow."Oh," panic rose in my eyes. "Damn, didn't know you can do a headshot with a pillow." He bantered. I felt a slight relief from his tone, but then continued with my business.I just faced my back on him, walking away."Is it this one?" Lorenzo said while leaning on the door frame, lazily raising the photo in his hand."Thanks," I muttered as I walked back to him.I reached for the photo but I only grasped air as he immediately took it back, putting it in his pocket."What?""Come to my room first, I'll show you something and give it to you," Lorenzo said."I don't have time— You know what? Wh
Hasty Feisty ch. 10 | A FOREIGN FRIEND
I entered the office-looking room, and everyone's attention turn to me as I entered."Ah, is she the new girl, something?" One man asked."Hi," I mumbled.I entered the area, which appeared to be an office, huge and spacious, with each cubicle containing at least five to seven people.But what stands out the most is that they were all wearing a mask. No, not a medical mask, but a mask that covered their entire faces for a reason that I don't know.Weird. I thought.The mask was black, with just their eyes visible, yet it was still difficult to see due to the thickness of the mask, which covered their entire faces."Yeah, that's what the boss told us." One man said as he motioned me to come near him. "Come here, we'll be guiding you.""Okay...""So, we'll first start on how you do this. Our bosses love this specific drink and serve—""Yeah, I already know how to do it. I've been doing this before." I said as I grabbed the items from the table.I poured the drink mixtures swiftly, skill
Hasty Feisty ch. 11 | FILTHY AND FORBIDDEN
"I'm done here." I passed the papers on to the other worker, yawning as I finally ended my shift. Just the usual day, typing, making paperwork, and serving. I honestly preferred this than to be with The Regio, with their suffocating presence, threatening aura, how, before every dinner, I would sit with them at the table, feeling my appetite fade away, how whenever they were spending time with me, I would shy away, nervousness looming over me, especially those days when I can feel their stares on me. I also haven't seen Zacharias, Leo, and Toshiro for days now. The other Regio executives said that they just handled some business. "You may now leave, Ms. Miran." One of the guys with a mask said while I nodded in response. I still have no slightest idea what their identity is. Nonetheless, I follow their so-called 'policy'. "Where's Mask?" I asked before going out of the office. "He's just working with the others; Regio's paper works are now overloaded, so mask assisted the others."
Hasty Feisty ch. 12 | HANDS OF A CRIMINAL
"However, isn't it filthy?" Lorenzo whispered. My eyes widened as I tried to look up at him, but his grip on the back of my head was too strong.After all, he's my boss and I'm just his mere employee, right?He grabbed my chin and forced me to look up at him, where he noticed tears forming in my eyes and a malicious smirk on his face."Filthy how I got my dear employee begging for me."Forbidden."But don't worry, I'll take care of that."All so forbidden.He then started to hold my cheeks, leaning in as he kissed me deeply, prompting me to grind on his thigh again, but now I can feel how his pants tighten under me, making my clothed entrance throb."A-ah~" I gasped as he thrust upwards, making contact with my damp entrance, rubbing harder as the kiss became sloppy. The kiss came to a halt as we both needed more air. My glistening eyes almost squinted as I stared at him.His hand then moved from my hip to my thighs, prying them wide while I grind. He then slipped his fingers into my u
Hasty Feisty ch. 13 | QUESTION OF VOID
Morning came in quickly, as if I had just slept seconds ago. I tried to get up, but the sharp jolt of pain in my brain and body instigated me to lie down again.I hissed in pain as I slowly sat up, groaning. My cheeks heat up as I remember what had just happened last night."Yeah, I'm fucked up." I facepalmed my face, and when I meant that, I meant it literally.Entering the bathroom, my mind went flying as I almost dozed off while brushing my teeth.Minutes passed, and I went out of my room, only to see Leo leaning against the wall beside my door, his arms crossed as his head lazily turned to me."Um, hi? Morning?" I greeted.Leo scoffed as he leaned his head on the wall, avoiding my gaze until he spoke. "Stop acting clueless. I've been calling you for a certain order for the whole night, and it's urgent, but you're nowhere to be found. One employee informed me you went to Lorenzo's office. What happened?" I almost choked on my words. "Huh? Oh, I'm sorry." I tried to act it off, she
Hasty Feisty ch. 14 | PLAYFUL SUFFERINGS
"Allura! You're finally back."Mask was the first to greet me as soon as I entered the office."Hi, I'm sorry I didn't get to attend for the last three days." I immediately apologized for the burden as I scratch the back of my head."Ah it's fine, I have something for you." He said as the both of us walked into his cubicle."Wait—" My words were cut off as soon as I saw the organized stack of papers on my desk."What are these? Don't tell me..." I squealed as my eyes shone in surprise. Mask finished all of my work in just four days."No problem, I heard Sir Lorenzo say that you had a small injury, so that's why I did all your work." He said. My eyes widened as I looked at him."Ah... y-yeah minor injury. My leg is still recovering from it." I forced out a laugh."What happened though?" He asked."I slipped down the stairs." I quickly made up a reason."Must be bad. You should eat first. You missed breakfast, right?" He asked as he faced his table."How'd you know?""Just a guess." Mas
Hasty Feisty ch. 15 | WELCOME BACK, MYSTERIOUS ONE
I groggily woke up with pain in my head. As soon as I opened my eyes, the first thing that I saw was Lorenzo sitting at the side of the bed. "Good morning. How are you?" He asked as he pulled the table near the bed with a tray of breakfast. "What happened?" Was the first thing I asked, as the banging pain in my head won't stop, but I felt a damp towel on top of my forehead. "You fainted due to fatigue and exhaustion last night." Lorenzo told. I only nodded. "Yeah, didn't you eat lunch and dinner yesterday?" Lorenzo asked. "No," I answered while avoiding his gaze. I looked at the window that had the perfect view of the sunrise. "Why?" "I had to finish what your brother gave me." Lorenzo stayed silent, he looked around and sighed. "I scolded Leo last night after he came back." "Came back?" I turned my head back to Lorenzo. "Yeah, he's the one who brought you into your room." My eyes widened for a bit, but then I took them back and sat up from the bed, which startled Lorenzo.

Hasty Feisty ch. 100 | THE GLIMPSE OF THE END
Any person would freak out if they see this church, even the village itself. Anyone wouldn't dare to go here. But Zacharias and Allura? Why would they be? This place is what they call a beauty, yet none of them admitted that. They kept it to themselves like a secret. Just like before. As to why Zacharias regretted things now. He was indeed too late. "Let's enter?" I asked. "Let's go to the garden," but a different thing was in his mind. "A garden?" I tried to remember what it was. "I'll be left here alone, Ms. Marin. I'll just be waiting here." Willbert said and I just nodded but kept I phone with me. As Zacharias and Allura entered the church, he opened the rusty wooden double door, directing them to the church's garden. There, it shows an old patio, a rusty table and chairs, a cracked small stone fountain, a fence filled with webs now, and those fairy lights still hanging on the tree's branches. My eyes widened as I remember all of these in one place. Why was knowing my p
Hasty Feisty ch. 99 | BACK TO THE FORGOTTEN YOU
"She'll never arrive ten minutes early." Toshiro said as he looked at his wristwatch. Zacharias and the others have been waiting inside the van for over thirty minutes. They complain about the time, but they're always too advanced of arrival. Just like any other business trip, they'd all gathered to check that place discussed in the meeting the other day. "Ms. Marin is here," Kanji said, addressing me... formally. "Just came in time." I thought as I greeted each of them and also introduced Willbert to them, the secretary. As Zacharias continued to attempt to avoid her, he couldn't help but notice this one new behavior she developed. Allura never arrive early yet late, but instead, she's always arriving at the exact time. He just gave me a nod and a formal handshake as I then walked out to ride in my car to just follow them to the place. "Now I know the reason why you kept on rejecting Dias Corporation's offer," Kanji muttered. As the van began to drive toward their destination
Hasty Feisty ch. 98 | YOU, US, BACK TO SUMMER
"Mom, I'm sorry, I couldn't convince that large company to continue the partnership." I said on my phone while I'm currently in my room, and Eri is out of town for business matters, so it's me who's handling the company for now. Eri kept silent for a moment, and my brows furrowed as I looked at my phone screen to check if the call has ended. "Mom? Are you still there?" "Oh, yeah. I'm still here," Eri mumbled, and her tone was monotonous. "Is everything alright there? I should tell Secretary Willbert to escort you there. I can handle the company here." I said, sounding worried. "No, it's fine. I've already spoken to the company you've been mentioning for the past few days, too." Eri said. "Really?" My eyes shone. "I'll surely give you half of my shares when we continue the partnership, but of course, I need to give an outlook to their employees first. We can't just trust the human resources team sometimes." Eri really had no energy left ever since that day Allura asked her abou
Hasty Feisty ch. 97 | FIVE STRINGS APART
They say everything that was done in haste will go to waste.Ever since he saw a glimpse of her, everything felt like reverting from the start.Last week, Friday night, the same exact night where he saw her again. No, he couldn't be mistaken. It was really her.He's at his firm's office, sitting in his office while gazing outside the glass window from the fifty-seventh floor."Sir Sano," one of his employees called.Expecting to sign a fresh set of documents on his desk, Zacharias turned in his chair and tapped his desk."Toshiro, just place them," Zacharias told in almost a whisper."How's your medication?" Toshiro was actually about to ask this. Not bombard Zacharias with tons of paperwork again.Zacharias just nodded and rubbed his eyes as he yawned. "It's alright.""Alright? I've heard from the doctors that you've been skipping your medication." Toshiro said."Then I'll take one today. You can go now, thank you." Zacharias simply said."Wait. Have you told Kanji about the new part
Hasty Feisty ch. 96 | THE GLIMPSE OF TOMORROW
"More?"The bartender asked as I was getting myself wasted on the bar's counter."One more shot," I groggily said as my head was lying down on the counter.The bartender looked at me cluelessly at my state. "A heartbreak?""Hell? Fuck no," I scoffed."My bad. Usually the customers who get wasted, slumping themselves down on that counter are going through a breakup. I believe it's a curse now." He joked."Well, I am not. Just fill my glass up... Goddamn," I grunted as I clank my shot glass on the counter."Alright, alright," the bartender said as he hurriedly filled my glass up. I grabbed the glass from him, and he's just standing there as I gulp the shot of gin straight."Ma'am, seems like your phone has been ringing for minutes now," the bartender said as he noticed the constant dings and rings on my phone beside me.I raised my head lazily as I checked my phone with my squinted eyes.74 missed calls from Erianne Dhiore59 missed calls from Zane WilbertAnd more missed calls from my
Hasty Feisty ch. 95 | A SLOW REVELATION
"It's impressive, Madame Allura, the company in the meeting a while ago backed out of their contract."Secretary Zane Willbert said inside my office, and he's also the secretary of Eri."Yeah," I simply replied while I was busy signing the files."Uhm, do you know that company has been pestering us for almost a month? They kept on insisting on pushing this future plan of theirs and the partnership." Zane informed."Why am I only informed now?" I stopped with my work and looked at him."Madame Dhiore told me not to inform you since she wants the higher positions to handle this. She didn't want to add up more work for you." Zane said."Next time, tell her to have her inform me of every audit that takes place within the company." I commanded."Yes, madame.""Also, madame. Since you refused that company's offer, do you want to move forward with the next company?" Zane asked as he took his iPad out to list information."The background of their company?""They're also a company that focuses
Hasty Feisty ch. 94 | THE COMPANY'S PRIZED POSSESSION
"Madame Allura!"I woke up the next morning feeling nausea washing over me. As soon as I got out of bed, I heard frantic knocks on my door and someone calling me.Fixing my hair and appearance for a bit, I opened the door since it seemed like the maids were calling me in a rush."Secretary Willbert Zane has been calling you. Eight o'clock is close, and you're going to be late for your supposed meeting, madame!" The maids shouted."Fuck," I cursed under my breath."Tell Secretary Zane that I'll be there in thirty minutes," I hurriedly added as I closed the door and proceeded on getting ready.After forty minutes of getting ready, even if I'm told that I'll be finished within thirty minutes, I quickly prep myself and ate at least small portions of breakfast before going out of the house."Ah shit, mom will kill me." I thought. I know that my stepmother Eri is the one that holds the highest position in the company, and of course, there will be times when she needs to take her role. She m

Ten years later..."The rise of Dias Corporation! Cheers!"The workers of Dias Corporation clanked their bottles as they commemorated a special day for the company inside a restaurant."Madame Marin... All of us look up at her hard work." Eri's workers said with genuineness."I never doubt how I grew my daughter. She deserves the position in my company." Eri said as she sipped the glass of wine.After being admitted to the hospital ten years ago, Eri immediately entered my name in her company. Of course, it wasn't that easy. I had to attend therapy, take my prescription every day, and take extra lessons.It was like I was at university again, studying business courses for a brief period of time but also needing to join the civil service and earn a degree in business management to secure the position. Even though Eri, my stepmother, had to cover all of my expenses, it wasn't simple to attend classes while still keeping up with my health."Cheers to Ms. Allura Marin, our general manager

They say, at the end of the day, it's the people who are capable of achieving their wants, dreams, and affords that will only survive.And years later...It's only those people who are sane, and who still have a space in mind for serenity.They think it's okay to survive in this world, but what's engulfing them is the feeling of dread and loneliness as they grow old.It was a mixture of emotions, honestly. It's overwhelming."Kanji, how was it?" Toshiro asked as he entered Kanji's office in his firm.The two knew it was best for the group to disband. They felt like it was the best option. It's a horrendous era for them, and they have to end it.Kanji didn't notice that he was dozing off, so Toshiro had to call his attention thrice. "Kanji?""O-oh," Kanji shook his head. "Sorry, what was that?""I said, how's the convention, a while ago?" Toshiro asked."Ah, it's alright. Just a few errands here and there," Kanji replied as he placed his phone on his office table while turning his phon
