last update Last Updated: 2023-04-11 13:12:11

I did not wait for Sir Troy when I got out of that room where I was with Roven. I left the building and took a taxi to the place where I needed to release the pain I felt from the past. I still can't get rid of the pain no matter how hard I try to forget it.

Why does he have to come back to mess with my heart and mind again? Why is it that when I finally accept the past, he comes back into my life to remind me of it again?

I went down to a Bar near the company I work for. I looked at the wristwatch I was wearing and realized that it was past ten o'clock at night and I didn't care about the time, as long as I knew I had to drink to somehow forget the pain and save myself.

I entered the noisy room. The loud ringing stung my ears causing me to close my eyes. I also saw many people around having fun there as if that was the place for the fun they needed. I went to the counter and sat there.

I took my cell phone and texted Andrea to come to me there, I also thought of texting Melissa to in

    I winced and felt dizzy when I opened my eyes. I felt a headache and a slight dizziness. My body is also heavy and my throat seems dry because of thirst.I gently removed the blanket from my body while my left hand touched my head because it was tingling. I lay down and closed my eyes again. I feel like I can't get up because my body is weak. I noticed that my clothes still hadn't changed.I tried to remember what happened last night. I got drunk again and I can't remember everything that happened. The last thing I remember is we were walking out of the bar while I was screaming Roven's name while being supported by Melissa and Andrea.I closed my eyes tightly and slapped my forehead gently. What are you doing again, Miles? I could no longer control myself from drinking. I woke up and faced the white ceiling. The conversation between me and Roven and everything he said came back to my mind. I was slightly stunned and shook my head a few times."Finally you're awake now."I saw Zandy on

    I can't rest while lying in my bed. I still can't get over the conversation Roven and I had and how strange Zandy was acting toward me. I was confused by him while Roven was also confused in my mind.To this day, I still think about what Roven said that he is not gay or bi or whatever it is called. I also couldn't help thinking about what he said that what I saw that day was not true. I also remembered what Zandy told me before that I was wrong in what I saw and I just interpreted that. If so, what does the scene I saw that day mean? I'm confused and don't know who to believe.I sighed. I closed my eyes and shook my head to get all those thoughts out of my mind. I feel like I'm going crazy. I don't know how I should feel about what is happening. Everything is getting more and more complicated for me.I removed the blanket from my body and stood up from the bed. I need to drink water to at least calm down. I quietly went down from my room and did not see Zandy there. He left earlier an

    I leave home early to go to Mom and Dad before going to work. I feel like I need their hug. I need comfort from my family because of all the pain I feel. I don't know what to think of what I found out. I feel like Roven and Zandy betrayed me.When I entered the house, I immediately hugged Mom who greeted me. I even saw her surprise when she saw me. I know she was wondering about my act but I don't care anymore. What I need is hugs and comfort from them, even though I know to myself that until now, I have a grudge against them."Oh! Miles? Why, what happened? Are you ok?" Mom asked in surprise.I hugged her even tighter and didn't say a word. I don't know where to start and how to tell them because for all they know, Roven traded me for a girl and they have no idea that Zandy was the reason why I was hurt."Is there a problem? You act strange," Mom repeated while hugging me. I can feel the concern in her voice. "Did something happen to you and Zandy? Did you fight?"I hope that's the o

    While I was busy typing on my monitor, I was slightly surprised when Melissa and Andrea approached me. I frowned."Aren't you busy?" I asked because it was as if they were doing nothing and still had time to chat with me."Did you know Zandy made an effort to pick you up at the bar last night?" Melissa said immediately. "I was just wondering why he seemed so concerned about you at that time," she said weakly.I frowned. So, it was Zandy who brought me home last night. I don't know but something appeared inside me because of what I heard."I felt something strange about Zandy that night. He was very worried about you as if he were a real husband," Andrea seconded.I pretended not to be affected by what they were saying. I faced the monitor again and started typing. "What are you guys thinking, huh? He was just concerned because we live together under the same roof and if something happens to me, I'm his responsibility. It's like what he did to me in the studio," I explained."I disagre

    I DON'T know but I suddenly felt guilty because of what I said to Zandy the other day. I still can't get out of my mind the conscience and the look of disappointment on his face that day. I also felt as if he was avoiding me. He doesn't even look at me or talk to me. I also feel that I am now the one to blame for him and that I should apologize even though I try to think that he is the one to blame for me.Beverly is also messing with my mind. I want to ask Zandy about this but I don't feel like I'm in the right place to ask.From the door of my room, I saw Zandy on the terrace facing his laptop while drinking coffee. He's been busy with whatever he's doing for days. I snorted. Someone whispers to me to approach him but I stop myself.I took a breath and decided to go down. Since it's still early and I don't have school because it's a holiday, I thought of going out of the house to visit the plants outside. The sun is so beautiful. I started watering the plants.

    THE MORNING, Zandy and I were surprised when both of our parents came to the house one after the other. Uncle Andrew and Aunt Mandy arrived first and a few minutes later, Mom and Dad arrived."How are you, hija?" Aunt Mandy asked me kindly as Zandy and I sat side by side on the long sofa. Mom and Dad are on one sofa and Aunt Mandy and Uncle Andrew are opposite us.I smiled. "I'm fine, Aun—Mom," I answered shyly because I almost called her Aunt again. I don't even know what else to say. I suddenly felt tense and nervous.Aunt Mandy and Mom just smiled, while the two boys next to them were serious."I'm glad to hear that, hija. I'm sorry, we can't visit you here always, we're just too busy with business and various business meetings," Auntie Mandy explained."You, Zandy, how are you? How's your back? Are you feeling well?" Mom said that there is still a trace of concern for Zandy.I saw Zandy smile. I don't know if he's pretending or if it's real. "Don't worry, Auntie, I'm fine. I feel

    This morning, I went to work early because of the pile of work. I was also thinking about how I would do my work with Beverly. The deadline for that is near but until now I still don't know how to interview her."Oh? Looks like you came early, Miles?" Chad commented when I met him there with some of our colleagues in the department while I couldn't see Melissa and Andrea who probably arrived later."I have a lot of work to do, Chad, so I have to come in early," I answered, then placed my bag and some of my things on my table.I turned on the monitor in front of me. Chad didn't say a word either. I started typing to start the articles that have been in my file for a long time. I had only said a few words when I heard Shai's voice."Miles, you have to go to Sir Troy's office," she said to me seriously. I faced Shai asking. "If you ask me why, I don't know," she smiled as if she could read my mind. "Just go there."I just frowned and was left thinking. Sir Troy always calls me. I am not

    "THANK YOU, Ton for coming," I said seriously when he arrived at the restaurant where we would meet. I took his number from Zandy and called him to talk about the restaurant that he and Zandy will build.Like I said to Zandy, I want to help him in whatever way I can. I don't know what I can do to help either, but I will try to make his long-time dream come true and I want to be with him in that success.Ton smiled at me, then sat down in the opposite seat from where I was sitting. "I didn't expect you to call me, Miles. So, what are we going to talk about?" Ton asked directly. "It's probably not about your relationship with Zandy, is it?" He laughed and bowed for a moment.I suddenly felt ashamed and embarrassed because of Ton's last words. I was ashamed because I thought about Ton and Zandy such things. Zandy didn't explain either.I awkwardly smiled and looked at Ton shyly. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry, Ton if I thought badly of you." I avoided looking at him because of the shame I felt.

    Zandy immediately pulled me closer to him when we got to his room. It seems that he was missing me so much because when we got out of the car, he immediately grabbed my arm and pulled me towards his room. I just hung on because I knew that I wanted the same thing to happen."What the hell, Zandy?" I was still weak when he kissed my neck. "I'm tickled," I said. I felt the hair on the back of my neck stand up because of what he did."What did you say? Zandy? Didn't I tell you that if you call me Zandy, I'll kiss you," he said when he stopped kissing my neck. "Call me Honey, anywhere and anytime, ok?""Ok, fine, I'm sorry," I said laughing."And as a punishment. I'll kiss you 'till the night ends," he threatened as his eyes seemed to sparkle. He pulled me even closer and I could feel his arm around my waist."That's the punishment I want from you, Honey," I said. I raised my arms and wrapped them around his neck as I looked up at him. I simply smiled. "I'm willing to take the punishment

    "WHAT'S the plan, Miles? Next week would be your birthday, right?" Andrea said excitedly as we left the building. We just finished our work and we are all stressed from the amount of work. I want to rest my brain because I've used it all day.My eyes narrowed but my mouth parted and eventually smiled as I shook my head. I remembered that it's my birthday next week and that will be my thirtieth year in the world and just like they expected, the curse will be broken because I'm married."I forgot, Andrea," I confessed. "With so much happening, being so busy at work, I forgot that my birthday is next week," I said sadly."You're just distracted, Miles. Is that because of Beverly?" Melissa was curious. Just this morning, they bombarded me with a lot of questions about Zandy and me and Beverly's return. I didn't have a choice and because they were my friends, I admitted my real relationship with Zandy and about Beverly. Well, I'm not surprised by their reaction. I was almost deaf to their

    67This morning, I woke up early for an unknown reason. The sun was barely rising but my eyes were wide open. I stretched as I yawned. I looked at the ceiling for a moment and couldn't help but smile when I remembered what Zandy said to Beverly the other day.My heart overflowed with joy and happiness because Zandy just proved that he would choose me even though Beverly was in front of him. Because of that, I'm sure of Zandy's feelings for me and I feel the same way. I have no more reason to doubt him and distrust him.I hugged the pillow tightly and screamed because of the thrill I feel every time I remember what Zandy said. That stuck in my mind and I will never forget it and I hope Beverly understands that.A few more moments, I decided to get up from my bed. I left the room. I was about to step down when I noticed Zandy standing on the terrace with his arm focused on the steel that acts as a terrace barrier. I frowned. I saw outside that it was still a little dark and the light wa

    AFTER I got home from work, I immediately went up to the top of the house but I immediately stopped when I saw Zandy on the terrace looking seriously at the wide sky, obviously thinking deeply. I snorted and tilted my head slightly. I want to approach him and talk to him because I know he is thinking about what Uncle Andrew said to him this morning. He was speechless even before I went to work.I decided to change my clothes before I approached Zandy. I changed into a pajama suit and a t-shirt before leaving my room and approaching Zandy.I stopped for a moment and looked at his broad back. He didn't notice me because maybe he was deep in thought. I mustered up my courage and put aside my shyness. I approached him and slowly brought my hand closer until I could hug him from his back. I immediately smelled his sweet scent that I always wanted to smell.I felt his shock because of his slight flinch but he let me do what I was doing."You look so stressed, Honey," I said sadly. "You didn

    I wasn't surprised when I woke up with a smile on my face. How light I feel and the surroundings. I stretched with a sweet smile on my lips, then excitedly hugged the pillow and rolled on the soft bed. Even in my dreams, the memory of Zandy never left me.I still can't get over what Zandy did and said to me last night to make Roven look like he already owns me. That keeps coming back to my mind and every time I think about it, I can't help but smile and thrill. Will I still doubt him when Zandy has proven that he deserves to be believed and trusted? But until now, I also think about Roven's situation but I know it is the best for both of us.I stared at the ceiling for a few more minutes. I was going crazy that even on the ceiling I could see Zandy's handsome face looking at me and smiling. My lips just smiled with excitement.There is no doubt that I feel for Zandy. I know I love him and I admit that to myself. I am ready to face the consequences.A few more moments, I blinked. I got

But because I'm an only child, I know I will come to a point where I have to enter the company but this time, I want to do what I want for myself first before I spend myself in the company and that's what they don't understand.But because of dad's decision, I can't do anything anymore. When the five months he gave me are up, I have to enter the company and put aside the restaurant first.The other day, mom and I argued again when she came to our house with Miles. I couldn't avoid not answering to defend my dream for myself which for them is meaningless but to me, it is very important because that makes me happy.I sighed while sitting on the sofa and holding my cellphone while playing with it. I don't know if I can build the restaurant in five months. Even with everything planned out, it's

    "You know, Melissa, if you have feelings for someone, don't hide it. You too might be taken away," Andrea continued, teasing Melissa that perhaps Andrea was referring to Melissa's alleged feelings for Chad. Melissa's face couldn't be painted and her cheeks were red from embarrassment while Chad was silent.We are currently walking out of the building. It's past nine o'clock in the evening because we have just finished the articles that are close to the deadline.I smiled but then, I thought about what Melissa said that seemed to hit me too even though that was not her intention."Andrea, stop me! I'm going to charge you for what you ate earlier. He said I don't like Chad, ok? W-we're just friends, that's it," Melissa returned to Andrea with an obviously embarrassed face."Ouch! That hurts Melissa, you didn't even wait for me to leave before you said you didn't love me," Chad snapped. He closed his eyes and felt his chest as if it was painful. But it cannot be hidden from me that Chad
