Seeing somebody die is painful to watch, seeing a dead family member is worse but not seeing your family before and after they die is the worst and Belle was traumatized. I admit, I felt bad for her.

My parents invited her for lunch at my apartment because well, she did help keep me alive and I also wanted to meet my donor so win-win, I guess. I thought it would either go two ways. It could be really awkward or just meh because I wasn't generally skilled at talking to new people.

My social skills were next to zero. I opened my system and looked up social skills and after searching for the shortest article possible because I couldn't stress myself, I clicked on it and opened it. I began to read it.

"Social skills are essential in building both personal and professional relationships. Demonstrating strong interpersonal skills can help you accomplish career goals, contribute to company achievements, perform well dur

    Sophie had been stuck with the thought that Jim was cheating on her ever since she said it out loud. She didn't want to believe it but she couldn't help herself; all she wanted to do was confirm if it was true or not. She was getting dressed for a formal hangout with her colleagues when a ding came in through her phone indicating she had a text. She checked it and it was from Jim.Wear something beautiful and fancy, I'll pick you up in 20 minutes ❤️Jim knew he hadn't been giving her enough attention but that's because of his job being demanding for the past couple of days. He planned this outing since he hadn't taken her out in a long time. He knew she was upset about the whole work thing and him not having time for her so he decided to take her ass to dinner."Babe", he called out. She was in the bathroom doing her hair. Women and that shit though. She walked out of the bathroom with an annoyed expression, her right hand on her wa

    Jada had become very familiar with the part-time maid and her 14-year-old daughter, Lara, under a month of staying in South Africa. She wouldn't lie, she was enjoying her stay there and she didn't want to leave anytime soon. She was actually considering her husband's offer on moving there but she wouldn't tell him otherwise he would try to emotionally coerce her into it."Mrs Adrian, ready yet?", Adrian asked once he entered the room, smiling at his wife watching herself in the mirror."Hold on, I just need to contour my face and apply lipstick and we're done", she told him while dabbing the make up sponge on her face repeatedly."What the heck does contour your face mean?", He asked and they both laughed before he sat beside her and watched her until she finished her makeup. They were attending a South African governmental function which the Prince and his wife were cordially invited to and Adrian rsvp'd for them.

    49I wasn't completely fine yet, I still felt random pains and this time it wasn't from an unidentifiable area of my body; it was from the gunshot wound on my shoulder.I wasn't completely fine yet, I was just healthy enough to be discharged on supervision and by supervision, the doctor meant having a carer by my side in case of any emergencies. But in this case, supervision meant Jade, Grey and my grandfather keeping their eagle eyes on me all the time which was a bit funny but annoying as fuck.I had also been stalling the meeting with Belle Henley a lot because I wasn't exactly fully ready to meet my donor yet; even though I wanted to. I re

    50I opened Facebook on my phone and typed in Belle Henley in the search bar and a lot of options came up, even males. I didn't even know what she looked like personally but from the description I was given, I was pretty sure it wasn't that hard to identify a female with pale brown eyes, curly brown hair and tiny freckles with a nose piercing.It can't be that hard, they say. Keep scrolling, they say. Yes, it was that hard. I'd been scrolling for almost three minutes and I hadn't found one person, not one person that fit her description. I was almost about to give up when I finally saw one that matches and man was she beautiful.She was intensely be

    51"Eve, please listen to me, it's not what you're thinking, I can explain, I promise you Eve, it isn't what it looks like." The regular words a betrayer and a cheater says when they get caught.I never imagined or pictured myself hearing those words in my entire life, ever. I wondered to myself why anyone would want to cheat on me. I mean, I knew for a fact that I didn't do anything wrong and we were fine in the relationship so what could've been the cause?"Eve, please li-listen, I'm sorry you had to see that." Grey stuttered again.He wasn't even sorry he cheated, he was sorry I caught him cheating, he was sorry I had to see him cheating with my best friend. Such an annoying human. Right then, my blood began to boil as my body and my mind finally settled on what to feel. Rage.I shut my eyes tightly and reopened them as I glared at him attempting to close in on me while Jade just stoo

    52It took a long train ride to get back home but it was worth it. I needed the peace and serenity the subway brought. I kept looking outside the window, the grass and people going by in a blur soothed the anger in me. At least I felt better than when I left the house."Hello, yeah, I don't see any black Toyota here, I think you're on the wrong street- Oh, never mind, I see you now." I hung up and waved to the Uber driver.He came to a stop in front of me and I got in, throwing my bags carefully on the seat beside me. I sighed as my butt hit the comfortable seat and he began driving. That was when I realized I missed home. I missed strolling down the streets and helping my old neighbors walk their dogs.I missed Mrs Neumann's problematic son who happened to also be my favorite person in the entire community. I was glad my dads decided to finally settle in this community and not move anymore because I couldn't

    53"Look at this, I call it the depth. I made it for you." The kid smiled excitedly as he nudged me with the edge of the painting.His happiness was something everyone wanted. Such a happy child; happiness isn't easy to come by but we can find our own happiness in the most random and little things. We find happiness by first letting go of whatever saddens or depresses us, whatever or whoever it may be. And that gave me an idea."Tell me what you think, come on. Do you like it?" Rodney asked skeptically. I bent my head to the side, looking at the painting closely."Are you just stalling because you don't know what to say?" He asked with a bored expression on his face. Well, no, I definitely wasn't. "it's okay, my mom does it all the time. After all, not everyone can appreciate good art, not even if it hit them in the face." He shrugged.Ouch."Well, no, I wasn't stalling

    I had already made my decision, I just needed a way to convey it to my parents. I had absolutely no idea how they would feel about the news; after all they did try all they could for me and I was just going to throw it all away carelessly.Also, UCLA was such a prestigious school and I would be damned if I would throw away all that prestige and embarrass the whole school by doing what I had in mind.It's probably going to break them but I have no other option, it is what I want and it is what I have decided on. I also decided I was going to break the unhappy news to everyone during or after dinner that day. After was my best bet though, I didn't want anybody getting angry and not eating their food.On the other hand, Rodney still felt guilty for "asking me questions th

    "Eve–" "No, listen to me this time, Jade." I took a short step towards her. "I heard and saw everything, there's no need to explain anything to me anymore." I cut her off before she could get any further. "I know you already found out the truth, I'm here to tell you I still haven't found Remy!" She yelled out of frustration. That had to be the worst news I'd heard all month. What the hell? I couldn't believe she still had to conform to having sex with that son of a bitch, Grey. What if he just lied? What if he was never the one who sent the burglars? What if he doesn't even have Remy or know the whereabouts of the burglars or Remy? What if he just came up with the story on the spot so he'd have sex with Jade? What if he's lying about bringing back her child when in actual reality, he's unable to do that or he has killed the child or hurt him.

    "So… you've never gone skinny-dipping before for real?" "Yeah." Raphael muffled as I drew shapes and patterns on the back of his head while he sucked my nipples. We were going to have sex and all but this position we were in was oddly comfortable, relaxing and therapeutic for the both of us. We were both naked and he had his head in between my breasts while his tongue circled my nipples constantly. Therapeutic. "I really can't believe it. I mean, everyone has skinny-dipped at least once in their life, you're just strange." I told him casually. "Says the one who has never roleplayed in her entire life. " He retorted. &nbs

    "Let's go somewhere private." He whispered in my ears slowly and seductively as his lips brushed against my ears softly. "Where do you have in mind?" I asked him as I pulled his face up to mind and let my lips linger a couple inches away from his. "I booked an Augustus premium suite in Caesars so we can go there." He pressed on, not missing eye contact. There was just one thing that shone in his eyes with so much light and sparkle; Lust. He was lustful. I could tell he needed me just as much as I needed him at this point. His lust was so evident and I could tell he had all that lust for me. It made me feel so good. Plus, I was completely drunk while he was tipsy so that set the mood even more.

    There were five guys altogether, Raphael, Harvey, Martins, Ramirez and Duke. Also, we didn't get any of that strong alcohol. Nobody wants to pass out at omnia. "Questions time now. enough talking. Never have I ever cheated on a partner." Alexa, Jamie, Harvey and Ramirez took the shots. "Well, she was hot and my wife was home and she seduced me. No way in hell could I resist that very spicy latina. I mean, you all wouldn't." "Yeah, true, latinas are spicy as fuck." We all agreed consecutively. Unarguably true fact there. "I mean, he had to be one of the sexiest white guys I'd ever

    Then, sadly I realized I had completely forgotten the fact that it was a night club I was going to and I had done a whole freaking daytime makeup and it was so fucking angering. I punched my pillow to contain my anger and annoyance at myself. Then I realized I could just transition the whole thing into a night time makeup. I decided to just build on the daytime makeup I'd already done. I started out with my black color outline eye pencil. It comes in a creamy jet black that glides on sleekly and looks fantastic smudged out for a more lived-in look. I brushed some of my W3LL people expressionist liquid liner directly onto my hand; it wasn't exactly necessary, but I do it to ensure a sleek, crisp a

    Are you free? The girls and I are hanging out tonight at omnia club tonight. Dress code is formal and fancy. I read the text from Jamie out loud. Thank goodness. I actually needed something to get my mind off all the drama that had been going on in my life lately. It was tiring and frustrating as hell. Everyday, something new kept coming up. Can't there be at least one normal day? Before I know it, tomorrow, I'll find out that I was actually a man who got changed with surgery and my real name is Ethan and not Eve. Or I wasn't born. I was an illusion that got life by some weird cryo means. Or I'm not human, the scientists were testing out mutation and somehow my kind of mutant turned human.

    You see, it started when I was born, my parents adored and loved me. I was born with meningitis and in case you might not know what meningitis is, let me explain it to you.” "Meningitis is an inflammation of the tissue surrounding the brain and spinal cord (meninges). Viruses or bacteria may cause meningitis." "Symptoms include headache, stiff neck, fever, and malaise. Routine vaccination has decreased the incidence of many bacterial causes; however, viral causes are still common." "Bacterial meningitis can result in severe outcomes, including permanent hearing loss, brain damage, and even death." "The three types of meningitis are viral meningitis, fungal meningitis, and bacterial meningitis. Th

    "You have something important to say?" "Yes, very important." Belle replied in clarification. I didn't know why. I had absolutely no idea why but I felt like whatever she had to say was big, really big. Like way beyond me big. I wondered what was on her mind and what she had to say. I didn't know when I began to panic for absolutely no reason. I hadn't even heard her speech. "Well, we'll have to sit down for this."She said softly as she stared at me with guilt written all over her features. If she was about to tell my dads about my sugar daddy, Raphael, then she might as well just get a knife and stab me in the back physically instead. We all went to the living room and sat down but none of us looked or seemed comfortable, especially not me. "What did you want to tell us? What is this about?" I asked her carefully. &

    "Spill." "What?" I was genuinely confused about what she was referring to. I was confused about everything. I wasn't expecting anyone to just pop up and say anything once I entered. I had just seen Raphael off to his car where he gave me a kiss on the forehead which had been on my mind as I walked back. Alongside the many things and theories I had been coming up with while I slowly walked back to the house. And I opened the door and walked in, only to see Belle with her hands on her waist and a suggestive smirk, right beside Rodney who looked like he just wanted to sleep. "Spill." She repeated.
