It’s been three days since Schina lost her internship training. She didn’t want to go anywhere. All she wanted to do was stay at home and rested her tired body.
She was so depressed that she was thinking of giving up. She didn’t want to find a clue that would save her from this cruel world. She knew from the very start that something was wrong, but she was caught up in the thoughts that she might fail again!
She was sitting on the living room couch, looking out the window, when she heard her best friend's voice calling her.
"Why is she here again?" She lazily rose from her seat and made her way to the main door, clicking the knob to open it.
"Good morning, Schina!" She gushed and hugged her tightly.
"Are you planning to kill me?" She protested while coughing, Aicko unclasped her hand from her neck and grinned at her.
"I’m sorry," she s
"Are you sure you're going to hack J.S. Airlines' CCTV footage?!?" Hearing her scheme, Aicko was embarrassed. She couldn't settle herself down just now by imagining what would happen to her buddy if she did such a thing. "Yes! I am certain that I will track down the perpetrator "She said. Aicko understands that once she makes a decision, no one can stop her from achieving her objective, but she still needs to try. "Are you saying that after you locate the person responsible, you'll submit it to your employer as proof of your innocence?" Her pal questioned her in a naïve manner. "Yeah," she said quickly. Aicko sprang to her feet, grabbing the computer from her grasp and shutting it off, "are you still thinking?! I understand your logic but you might get in jail for doing this even if you prove your innocence! I know, you have no time, but you can do the simplest and rightest thing," she noted.
"Gosh! Is he madly in love with me? Is it true that he likes me? If he doesn't, he won't speak those things, but that isn't going to happen!" Her mind informs her. She was still shocked as she stared at him, her gaze sweeping down his face toward his mouth. She bit her bottom lip and cleared her throat, imagining his gorgeous lips as the kiss that had just transpired flashing through her mind."What are you trying to say? Can you enlighten me? I might have misheard your statement just now," she requested, thinking that she was in a delusion when he stated that ‘he couldn’t endure the feeling of missing her.’Axel was ready to confess his love to her. He had just confirmed it when he was away, and he kept missing her. She was all in his head thinking about what she was doing and how she since hadn’t contacted him. He took a deep breath and with all courage opened his mouth and say, "I was trying to say that… I n
"What??!!!!" She yelled loudly."I'm –" the ring of his phone interrupted him. Axel pulled his phone from his coat pocket, answered it, and placed it on his ear."Hello, Mr. Hodreal. I have already completed my task, and I assure you that I verified it before sending it," he heard his employee say on the other end of the line."Okay. My secretary will send you the payment," he said and hung up the call, and raise his gaze to her.Axel grabbed her hand, pulling her out of the house, "where are we going??!" She protested."I will tell you later. For now, just cooperate with me," he assures her, and opens the car’s door, inviting her to come in."Stephen’s POV""Does anyone else live here?!?" I yelled, but my voice reverberated across the area, so I kept going and looking for the exit, but I found up back in the same
"Schina’s POV""Can you tell me where you're bringing me?" I'm still perplexed as to why he hauled me into his car after receiving a phone call. I was gazing at his deadpan expression, but I couldn't figure out what he was thinking. I want to hear that I didn’t know I had been looking at him for a long period.I shifted my gaze. The kiss that happened earlier still appears in my mind. I feel shy around him right now, and I want to disappear."Check this out," he said, handing me his phone, and I looked at it, then at his face. "C’mon! Take it, and you’ll know where we are heading," he stated.I took it from him and was surprised when I saw a video on it, "what kind of video is it? Are you trying to get me to watch a rate," I stopped interrogating him when he gave me a 'shut up’ look.The video was playing when I realized that it wasn’t a mov
"Was she implying that one of them is gay?" Noreen, Mr. Andrews' assistant, murmured as she looked at the two guys. Stephen cleared his throat as he saw everyone's response to her revelation.He attempted to grin and dismiss her charge, pretending to be calm despite his irritation at Schina's boldness."I will pretend that you did not say anything, I hope that this kind of accusation will not travel around the company." He stated and studied the people in his office as his eyes darted to the accused."How can you say that?" Axel whines at her in a hushed tone. She simply responds by giving him a silly smile."Noreen, you can leave. Close the door once you are out," he instructed."That's all right, sir." She exited the office, quickly closing it and leaving them inside."I invite Miss Sandy to ask her to confess her mistake," Stephen said, which
Axel carried her and brought her inside the car, he checked her ankle to see if she has any wounds before closing the door. He take off her shoes and scan her foot and found nothing.He put on her shoes to her foot and seated next to her in the passenger seat, closing the door as he instructed his driver to drive the vehicle.“Let’s send Ms. Mallari to her home first,” he added."However, your secretary advised me that you must return to the office as soon as possible because she has to discuss something extremely urgent." What if I send you first, then Ms. Mallari? Is it okay with you, Ms. Mallari?" Mr. Domingo is curious.“Yes! It’s fine with me,” “no! I don’t agree! Let’s send her first,” Axel insisted. His driver was surprised upon his sudden change, he’s been noticing him changing bit by bit ever since he met her. He
Marie headed to a place where the loud music deafened her ears, where people went when trouble came into their lives and all they wanted was to escape from all the troubles in their heads and relax.She wasted her whole morning driving around until her feet led her here. She went inside to a place where the only lights were colorful and blinking but did not fill the whole area. Some places were dark and once she stepped inside, her nose could sense the strong distinct fragrance.She ordered a glass of red wine for the waiter. She was having a good time there, watching the folks on the dance floor become intoxicated and hook up with strangers.She giggles, wondering what had got her to this point, as she tried to clear her mind and appeared to be well. She asked for another drink, two, and so on. She drowns herself after consuming too much liquor. She wants to end the agony, but it appears that she isn't getting better; i
"Where has Ms. Castillo gone?" After arriving at the pub, Axel inquired of the waitress."Are you the man I spoke with on the phone?" "Can we know your name?" inquired the waitress. The other servant is curious."I'm Axel Hodreal," he said."I apologize for interrupting your sleep, Mr. Hodreal, but your girlfriend continues screaming your name, so—""She's not my girlfriend," he said hastily and walked over to the couch where his secretary was sleeping. "Marie, wake up," he softly called her name. "I assumed you were ill. Why did you come to this place?""Because of you," she replied in a hushed tone. Axel lowered his head and asked, "what did you say?" She clings her hand on his neck and says, "I love you.""I don’t think they don’t have a relation," the waitress explained her observation to her colleague."How did you
