“You look so creepy, Sir. No kidding.”

“Fuck off, dumb bitch.” I sent a quick glare at Monica’s direction as I fixated my eyes back to my computer where I’m responding to so many pending emails from the past days.

I called her up here to write the article that we are to release at the media later this afternoon. We’ll send it anonymously to an online news outlet and I want to check it word by word so it’s better if she’s near me so it’ll be easier to monitor.

“No, for real! You’re supposed to be stressed with your piled up paper works. However, your smile and the energy radiating out of you right now is so light and different. I wonder if this has something to do with Miss Sol-”

“I said fuck off and finish the task I assigned to you.”

I heard her chuckle. “You enjoyed that kiss, didn’t you?”

My eyes snapped back at her an

    “Come here. Let’s greet the Fortalezas.”Jupiter intertwined our fingers together as we headed to the biggest table near the podium. Everyone seemed to make their way towards the same direction, probably with the same agenda as ours - to greet the party hosts.I’ve been feeling anxious since we arrived because I didn’t expect the party would be this huge. And the amount of cameras we had to go through? Oh, lord… I hope none of those shots turn our horrible. Especially with Jupiter around me, I feel like I’d end up looking like his assistant!I felt him squeezed my hand to get my attention. I looked up at him and realized we’re nearing the table where the family host are seated. He gave me a worried look but I shook my head, chuckling, while pinching his palm. He glared at me and hissed silently.“It’s not your birthday, hoe! You can’t fool me! Your birthday has been over two

    Juno hissed at me after I nudged her arm when I noticed the stares she’s been giving to Andrew. The whole night we’re here, she’s been glancing every now and then to his table, and I can see that he’s gladly returning her gaze.“What?” She shot me a glare while touching her arm dramatically.“Are you mine or Andrew’s date? If you want, just bring your plate to his table and eat there with him.” I sneered and she nudged me back in irritation.“How long are we staying here? I’m already full.”I snorted and looked back at the on-going auction. “Don’t try to change the subject, hoe. Ouch!” I nearly jumped off my seat when she pinched the side of my stomach. I glared at her and she did the same.“It hasn’t been an hour, Juno. Keep your ass on your seat.”"But it’s boring! You’re not even joining the auction!”

    Jupiter is gay. He made it clear to me a long time ago that he wouldn't be attracted to my specie. And it's not like I've never slept with him before. I suddenly remembered how wholesome that sleepover was... and I bet it'll be just like that again tonight.I watched as he pushed the car door and abruptly ran to my side. The rainstorm was too strong and the small umbrella wouldn't fit us two, especially him and his huge figure. Thankfully, he parked just in front of the building entrance so we wouldn't have to walk too far and soak under the rain.But just when I thought he'd be a complete gentleman with his umbrella, he grabbed my wrist and forced me to walk beside him, barely covering my body. I shrieked when the wind blew hard in our direction bringing in the rain with it."Jupiter!" I screamed through the rain and the freaking asshole just laughed at me as we sprinted fast towards the building. I slapped him hard on his arm and foll

    (Remains on the female lead's point of view)I wasn't sure how or when did I managed to fall asleep that night. I knew he fell into slumber first as I ended up watching him breathe above my hair, his chest moving up and down with every exhales.He felt so comfortable and warm. I had the longest sleep in a while. And when I woke up this morning, he wasn't there beside me anymore. All was there was a small farewell note on the couch, along with two paper bags of breakfast he bought in the convenience store downstairs.My lips pursed tightly to stifle the smile breaking through. But when my eyes ended up on the tiny bedside clock perching beside the lamp, my eyes widened in panic as I realized I was running late.I took a quick shower and dressed up accordingly. I waved good bye to my cat who's watching me curiously before grabbing the paper bags of food on the couch. I don't have the time to eat anymore so I'll just bring this with

    Gone was the usual grumpy mood I always wake up to in the morning. Considering how I fell asleep during the night, whether my mood is on a positive or negative note before closing my eyes, it is an automatic reaction for me in the morning to frown and hissed irritatingly at everything.However, this morning is completely different. I bet I even wake up with a wide grin on my face. I let out a silent groan of satisfaction as I looked at the woman sleeping adorably beside me. Juno was cuddled up to my arms and her legs were thrown comfortably around mine. I bit out the smile on my lips.I thought of documenting this moment so I can tease her about it later on. But then, I think I forgot my phone in the car last night which upset me a bit. My hand unconsciously flew to her hair for a soft stroke. She cut it shorter and had it colored in brown, which suits her so good.My eyes widened when I realized what am I doing. Is this still normal? Sleepovers at

    "Have you seen Sir Seph's girlfriend?""I did! She was in the elevator line with us this morning. I didn't know she's also an employee here.""She's actually his secretary. I haven't seen her in person but I saw the paps pictures. She's pretty. But I don't know how to feel about her...""Oh, trust me, she's very nice. Our boss is definitely in good hands.""Hmm... I just didn't expect Sir Seph would choose someone who isn't in his level.""I know. But it's not right to judge her base on her financial stability. I think she's really a nice person.""Hmm... we'll see about that."I stepped out of the cubicle once I'm sure the women were gone. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and sighed wearily before running my fingers along my shoulder level hair.People have mix opinion about me. But I guess I'll take it rather than having all of them thinking I'm not good enough for him. At least some of them are on my sid

    I could remember the excitement on my face before I completely embarrassed myself in front of Juno. I was, once again, fixing my tie and hair in my bathroom mirror when my stomach betrayed me.And now, I have to suffer in humiliation while listening to her die out in laughter from the other side of the door. I groaned out in utter frustration.I have to spend twenty minutes more of my time in the toilet before I successfully shit out my intestines. I glared at Juno as soon as I stepped out of my bathroom door. The freaking bitch was sitting pretty on my swivel chair while smirking haughtily at me."Did you wash your hands?""Out!" I yelled as I felt my face gone red once again.She rose from her seat and sauntered towards me. She then patted my back while making fake emphatic expressions on her face. "It's okay. Don't be shy now, babe. I, too, had that experience a while ago."I shot her another glare. "What experienc

    SIRIUS"You know you can fool anyone here but not me, Sirius." Johnny blurt out of nowhere. We were in my room and he's helping me to pack up my luggage since tomorrow is my flight to Munich with Astra. My forehead creased at his vague accusation. "What do you mean?" He chuckled maliciously before zipping up my travel bag. "You like Astra."I froze for a moment before arching a brow at him. "I do, yes. You won't catch me hanging out with someone I don't like. Duh?""Hmm... I meant romantically, idiot! You like her more than you're supposed to like her!"I shook my head and headed towards the door, trying to escape his bullshit. "You're imagining things in your head now, huh? Can't a closeted gay man be friends with a dumb annoying woman anymore?""Oh, please!" He tailed behind me, laughing manically. "We both know— oh, wait! Maybe you don't! Oh, poor thing! Maybe you have yet to confront your own feelings. You're in the confused and in-denial stage just yet!""You sound ridiculous.

    ASTRAI was about to call our family driver when I saw a familiar red car zooming in to the parking. I immediately recognized it was Sirius' vehicle and I rolled my eyes when he stopped in front of me. The window rolled down and I looked at him sharply before opening the door to the passenger seat and sliding in.I threw my bag to the back seat and glared at him."Where were you? You went out to grab a barbecue?""I need to take you home quickly. I have to go somewhere," his voice sounded urgent and my forehead crumpled in curiosity."What? What is it? What happened?" I said in panicked. Is there a major emergency? Life and death situation?"Reclaiming my image back because Harrison just delivered the best news ever today."My eyes widened and a joyful squeal came out of my throat. "Oh my! I want to be there!""No, Astra. I'll take you home. We're heading to the police station today. I'll just tell you about it when I get home." "But-""No buts! Let's go!" And the car zoomed fast out

    ASTRAThe conference room was empty when we arrived in the floor. We went inside and sat in silence before Michelle stood up to finally say her farewell."Do you need anything? Perhaps I can bring you something to drink while waiting for the old hags to arrive?" I stifled my laughter before nodding my head. "Indeed. I'd love some soda right now."She smiled at me before finally leaving me alone in silence inside the meeting room. I looked around the place and sighed reminiscing the times where I used to sit here before to discuss the positivity of my career with the executives. The huge glass-made walls of this room and the neighboring buildings surrounding us were a witness to that. Now, it is time to say goodbye to everything. I sighed deeply and shifted anxiously on my seat when I heard the door creaked open. A sigh of relief escaped my lips when I saw Matt walked in, and behind him was Michelle carrying two cans of orange soda. Matteo glared at me before taking the seat beside m

    ASTRAAfter all the long hardwork these past years, and the previous predicament I've entangled myself with, I've decided that a cute long month break is more than what I deserve.I sighed deeply while sitting anxiously beside Sirius in his car. He insisted to drive me to my destination today; and the said destination is my entertainment company. This is actually a surprise visit. I never told anyone, not even Matteo, that I'm coming today. I would like to discuss my final decision about my contract renewal.And I hope they understand my decision, the fans as well..."Hey! Stop sulking," Sirius said as he started the car engine. I sighed for the second time before turning to him."What do you think I should do after this? How do you think the fans will react once the management put out an official announcement?"He shrugged. "Go out and have fun. For the latter question, of course, the real ones that stick with you during your darkest moment would be sad and disappointed. And it's nor

    SIRIUS"Goodness! Wake up!" I groaned sleepily before forcefully opening my eyes to find Astra glaring hard at me."Get up and move to your own sleeping space which is the floor. I already made your bed, your majesty. Now move away 'cause I would like to rest," she demanded with a hard glare."Huh?" I said absentmindedly as I was too consumed by sleepiness. "What time is it?""It's one! The nurse just left to check on Dad. And you slept throughout the third episode! Remind me to kick your ass in the morning.""Oh, please. Cringey ass show," I mumbled as I groggily get off the sofa and straightly launch myself on the floor where my bed mat and pillows are already waiting for me."You're welcome, dummy.""No probs."It was too late. So of course, it's only reasonable I'd wake up later that morning as well. I felt disoriented and utterly shock to open my eyes to Astra's father already in his conscious form and even glaring down at me!I quickly rose to my feet and hurried to the bathroom

    ASTRAIt is what I deserve. Have fun and have a good time. Or at least that's what I keep telling myself. "Your boyfriend seems like he need a ten hour sleep," the man said out of nowhere while wrapping up my order. It's been three hours of constant walking and stopping by in every shop we bumped into. And now, I'm hungry. I decided to buy us a burger meal while Sirius sat down on the bench nearby as he's been repeatedly complaining about going back to the hotel. Annoying! I want to stay some more! I chuckled at the man's assumption about my relationship with Sirius. I handed him my payment while I grab the tray of food from him."He's my husband, actually. But you're right, he looked tired as always," I giggled at my own lies before turning my back from the stall and walked towards Sirius. As I expected, he began complaining about his aching feet and the shopping bags. Of course, I'm not that heartless so I let his complains won this time. We can always go back in the following d

    SIRIUSAstra snatched the paper bags in my hand as we headed towards the living room of her apartment. Which, by the way, looks like a total mess as if a tornado just passed through the place. My eyes watched her took a sit on the white stained sofa in front of the television playing a cartoon show. So this is what's keeping her busy these past days? Unbelievable woman!"When was the last time you took a bath, dumb ass? It seems like a lightning just struck your hair," I shook my head in disbelief as I took a sit on the much cleaner single couch beside the sofa. "And what is this place? Can you call a fucking room service? You pathetic woman!"I heard her snorted at my ranting. Her eyes were fixated on the television while one of her hand was reaching inside the paper bag. A silent grunt escaped her lips when she found a burger in there."Really? This is what I've been eating for the past days, Sirius. Couldn't you have bring anything else aside from this? A fancy meal from a steakho

    SIRIUS I glanced at Astra beside me. We’re at the dive bar and drinking for a bit. But it seems to me that she’s not very good in handling her alcohol. My forehead creased watching her eyes blinking slowly. “Dumb bitch. Go home,” I whispered to her after taking a sip on my canned beer. Why did she even have to tag along with me?! I’m here to find myself a guy right now! She shouldn’t be getting in my way! Now I’m sure everyone here thinks she’s my girlfriend! I snatched the beer in her hand and grabbed her on the arm, getting up on my sit. “Let’s go, I’m walking you back to our villa. Go to rest now.” “That sounded dark,” she joked chuckling, and just letting me drag her without any protest. “You’ll come back here?” She asked as we finally stepped out of the bar. I shook my head as I glanced at the louder pub just two shops away from the bar. There’s a dance club, too. That’ll be my target. “No. I’m going to see the club.” She giggled and clung onto my arm, a gesture she’s alwa

    ASTRAI dove straight on the soft mattress of my queen sized bed after taking a long shower. My body feels drain from all the shoutings I did today in the ride park. It was honestly a very fun experience with Sirius, and I hope it isn't the last time we'll hang out.A satisfied and contented sigh escaped my lips. I feel refreshed. For days, all I did was cry and feel anxious about everything. Nobody was there for me so I'm truly grateful having his sassy ass with me right now, even though I'm not sure how long he'll be staying to tolerate my presence.I yawned sleepily when I slowly felt the heaviness creeping up on my eyelids. I turned to face the other side of my bed and switched off the lamp on the bedside table, then I pulled the blanket up to my chin. The loud ringing of my phone woke me up the next morning. I groaned and tried to sleep through the noise but it just won't stop until I'm irritated! With a sigh, I sat upright on my bed and scratched my eyes while blinking rapidly.
