“Told you, I can’t go,” I said once more when she eyed me with her malicious stares and placed her arms on her waist. “No way. He fucked yo—” “Tangerine!” I yelled with the slowest voice I have as I tried not to cover my face with embarrassment. “Okay, okay. He made love to you, so it's your turn to have fun alone—Well, I know you’re also having fun fucking him—” “Okay, go out,” I cut her off, for I am so done with her. I can no longer contain this hot thing that envelops my whole being. I felt like I will be nuts if she will not stop talking. “Fine! Fine, but I'll not leave unless you will join me. Hmm?” She winked at me with her playful grin and even flexed her dress. She is wearing a black fitted sleeveless top and her cleavage is so evident that even I, can't stand watching it. She's in an all-black outfit and with a glimpse of it, you can easily figure out where she will be going. “I haven't prepared ye—” “Uh-uh. Shut up and let's go to your room. You look like a rag ri
“Come on! Just one shot!” yelled Tangerine when upon sitting on the couch, giving me a glass of Isabella Islay whisky which I am certain can burn my ass. I looked at her with my face filled with disbelief before roaming my eyes around every corner of the VIP table where we were currently at. I am even surprised that our old friends are here, willing to get wasted as well, which made me shake my head in disbelief. I can't help but feel uncomfortable every time I moved my body to find a comfortable position since one of my friend’s partners is sitting next to me and I could feel how flirting he is. The painful neon light mixed with the loud music made me feel so dizzy, partnered with different types of fragrances that were invading my nostrils. I felt like I will go nuts if I will keep myself in this chaotic place. I would prefer being with nature or anywhere just to be filled with silence than to stay in this unorganized and messy place. Now, I regretted why I came here, but ha
“Steffano! Stop it!” I yelled in fear upon watching him punching the guy I am talking to earlier, nonstop, now filled with blood. My hands began to tremble as I was trying to stop him but damn, he is too strong for me to handle. “Fucking no one will gonna touch my wife! I will fucking kill you!” The bouncers were now trying to take Steffano away from Luvimir but it took them minutes before they let him go the poor man who’s just sitting peacefully earlier. Damn it. This is all my fault! The scene Steffano made brought a huge amount of gossip all around the place. The crowds were even surrounding us, talking about what happened. My trembling states doubled when Tangerine suddenly appeared from nowhere, so I took her hand and placed her at my back, for I am certain, Steffano will never let this thing be set aside just like that. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it!When the bouncers recognized him, they let him go, so he walked toward me and in just a swift motion, Steffano is now tightly h
“No, no! Please, s-stop!” I stumbled upon being slapped by Steffano's huge and wide filthy hands. My sight's still trying to figure out where to hold to gather myself up even my mind's now nowhere to be found. All I could gaze are those blurry particles due to the huge impact from an object which made me feel so dizzy. I tried to fight, but I always ends up being beaten by him until my body gets numb and helpless. My head was being slammed by the tip of his table, making me crumpled in pain, blood was dripping everywhere. A loud bawl escaped from my mouth when he aggressively gripped my hair, and pulled it up, forcing me to stand up even though my feet is dead numb. “You bitch! You need to learn your lesson.” Another slap reaches my torpid face. The smell of alcohol from his mouth invaded my nostrils. He is drunk. He leaned closer to my ear and his evil voice echoed onto it. He choked my jaw, making me heave a breath. “Who told you to talk to that son of a bitch?” he asked in a w
My face’s now turning paperwhite as my hands are trembling with fear and disappointment with myself. Why on earth would I forget to turn off the stove?!I am now cursing myself in my mind while trying to revive the scorched bacon together with the egg which now looks like charcoal. “You want me to eat that shit?” Steffano asked with a mock as he gave me a sarcastic stare.I lowered my gaze, trying to divert my eyes from him to lessen the guilt, and decided to play with my fingers on my back.“You want me to eat that fucking shit?!” he yelled again, making me almost jump due to being so frightened. His voice is no joke, it is like thunder, ready to wreck my who system.“I-I’m sorry... I didn’t mean to scorch that. I can cook again if you li—”“Bullshit!”“Dada, don’t cuss! That’s bad! And don’t be so mean to momma!” Leira’s small voice echoed between us, making me almost heave a breath. I tried to make her shut her mouth by gesturing my trembling hands for her to cease, but she just
“Momma, you okay? Why are you crying?” Leira asked when I entered the car. I tried not to be so obvious but I guess, I failed. I handed her the toy without giving her an eye and diverted my gaze opposite her direction to wipe my dried tears.“Yes, sweetie. I’m okay. Momma just slipped off the stairs lately, but momma’s okay now,” I looked at her with assurance and gave her a smile. “Let’s go?” I asked to divert the subject.She just nodded with enthusiasm and started singing the song I played using Bluetooth in the car.I carried her along to her room, making her giggle, and sat on her little chair in front. The other children stared at us like we were doing some interesting stuff. I also smiled at them and was about to leave when Leira instantly uttered. “I know, my momma is gorgeous!” she exclaimed, making me divert my gaze in her direction. I chuckled upon watching her talking to a little boy who is bragging about something silly. She grinned while waving her hands at me, so I j
I tightened my grip on Leira’s little fingers when he was about to walk towards us, and stepped my foot backward as a signal for us to walk away from him, when he instantly grabbed my hands, making me heave a breath. “Euphoria, wait. Why are you avoiding me?” he asked out of nowhere. I slowly diverted my gaze to him with a grim face while still holding Leira who is now oblivious about the happenings. I bit my lower lip and sighed.“I didn’t expect to see you here, Freion,” I replied casually while staring at him, but not in his eyes. “You’ve changed...a lot.” His smirk appeared and took his hands off me before giving Leira an eye. “So, you already have a child, huh. Good for you,” he added and patted Leira’s head, making her giggle with a smile on her face. “What’s your name, little fella?” he asked her, but I can sense that he is watching my every reaction in his peripheral vision. All I could do is to press Leira’s fingers while watching them.“My name is Leira MacMilla—”“What
“M-Momma? Momma!” a little voice echoed from behind, which made my heart jump with mixed emotions. In a swift motion, my wide arms enveloped Leira’s little body and hugged her as if I haven’t seen her for years. My eyes landed on the man just almost a meter away from us which made me give him a face with menace, but deep inside, I am thankful that it was him who saw her. I bit my lower lip and sighed when he fought my stares with a genuine concern and placed his hands on his pocket while his eyes is still focused on mine. “Your kid is smart. So likely to grow like you when she grows older,” he uttered out of nowhere with a face without any emotions. My face heated upon thinking he really thinks Leira is my daughter. Well, as time goes by, I am starting to see myself as the little kid in my arms. I noticed Leira’s giggles so I slowly released her from my grip and stood up but still holding her right little hand. She instantly took off her sunflower clip, making her hair gets messe

If I woke up earlier with a ceiling who welcomed me early in the morning as the first thing I saw, today, I woke up for the second time, but I am now facing Steffano’s feature lying peacefully beside me. I can’t help but admire the every corner of his almost perfect face, that I can’t look away from it. I gestured my hand on air to point his think brows, to his pointed long and well-sculpted nose, down to his kissable wet thin lips. My finger even wandered his perfect and manly jaw that was waving in front of me as he slightly moved his body. I can’t believe he is this tired? He even fell asleep the moment we’ve done doing that thing, which made me so shock. He is indeed a beast on bed, but a kitten after it. It is already evening, yet we were still like this, feeling like our day is just started. A smile escape from my lips upon realizing everything we’ve done. Damn, I still could feel every thing. I don't know if he had work to do today, but I don't care for I enjoyed what happen
The morning sunrise welcomed my skin the moment I opened my sight, and the first thing I saw is the plain ceiling, which made me look at it as if it was the most interesting thing to see. I remained in that state for minutes before the phone rang from my side table out of a sudden, making me land my eyes on it and weighed myself on the bed to fish it. I adjusted first my position before answering a call with a yawn. “Euphoria! Goodness! I heard the news! Is it really true? Like effing true? How come y—” “W-Wait, wait wait, calm down, bitch,” I cut off her semi-tongue twisted words when she started yelling at the phone, too excited to talk to me. Damn, she's too loud for a morning phone call. “So, is it true? He brought you to the company?” she asked but more calmly as if that scene of being in Steffano’s company is a big deal. I can't help but roll my eyes at how nosy she is. Yeah, she is my cousin. Nothing changed. Well, I can't deny the fact that I finds it surprising, Stef
How come the sun is setting so fine even though it means, it will now be bidding its goodbye? Leaving is the only meaning of it but I haven’t felt any pain upon watching it vanish from my sight. Maybe because I know it will always come back no matter what? Before, I have been wishing to become a sunset or just to experience being one for me to feel how to take a rest beautifully without thinking any thoughts about life, but as time goes by, I realized that being a sunset can make you feel disappointed and could be filled with sorrow at the same time. I gulped with my thoughts. I don’t even know why I ended up thinking those. I have been here for hours and I could not help but admire the beauty of the whole place. How come it’s my first time coming to such paradise? Oh well, I’ve been wondering about malls and luxurious places before, and coming to this kind of place is just a waste of time for me. But now? I regretted that I haven't come here the moment I existed in this world. It
Starting today, my wife is now also your boss. Try gossiping, and you’re all fired,” he added as his touch on my waist tightened when those gossiping around us be filled with silence. But all I could see is his pair of eyes and I don’t have plans on looking around to see everyone’s reaction. I don’t care about them. I am still in a midst of confusion about what he is saying, but I chose to remain being with my poker face upon trying to uphold what I felt for I don’t want to act like a clown in front of everyone. He didn’t say a word after that and just grabbed me but with gentleness so we both started walking towards the elevator, leaving those people around us. But before I followed his every step, trying to compose myself with my sophisticated and bitchy ass look, my eyes landed on the lady only meters away from us, who is surprisingly looking at me with hatred visible in her eyes. I still looked at her as if I am curious with her sudden emotions. I bet she is in her mid-thirties
I didn’t come out to the car when we reached the company. I will not get out from here without Steffano by my side. I will wait for him no matter what for that is what I promised myself before I agreed to him being left on that road. The driver keeps on looking at me from the front mirror upon tapping his fingers on the car’s door, but I chose to ignore him and just focused my eyes on the entrance of the company. He didn’t even park it in the parking lot for he is hesitant to do so which made the scene of us, being in the midst of the company’s entrance caught each and everyone’s attention, particularly the employee. No, I will never go out without Steffano’s shadow. Their eyes were full of curiosity upon looking at the highly-tinted car where I am inside, thinking about Steffano’s safety. I pressed my lips together upon lowering my gaze, trying to divert my thoughts from those negative terms in my mind. Haggard is what I can see about my face right now. I didn’t even try putting
I can’t help but roam my eyes around every corner of my face in the mirror upon trying to boost my confidence with all those figurative words that were being chanted by my mind ever since the moment I sat there without my full senses. I was busy fixing my hair while trying to gather my ass as I was looking at the very deepest part of my system. I then put my red lipstick on for I know that red is the most suitable color for my face since it could partner my pointy nose’s shape, together with my eyeliner to make it look more intimidating and smoky. I am in the midst of doing those upon thinking that I will be going somewhere very important, even though Steffano will only bring me to his company. But it is just too difficult for me to just ignore it upon knowing the fact that their company is the witness of the scene our family made. It is not just a company. “You can do this, I know,” said my mind the moment I gestured my hand in the air to comb my hair while my other free hand is
