“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
(Remains on the male lead’s point of view)One of the biggest fish in the market has been sold!Jupiter Acosta, the heir to the the biggest and most successful construction firm in the country, has been seen hanging out with a mystery girl around the city lately. A reliable source from the elite circle disclosed the handsome bachelor’s relationship status - and confirmed! He is indeed seeing and have been dating the girl for a while now. And to support that confirmation, Jupiter went to his social media account last night to repost a five year old picture of him from his girl’s account with a romantic caption - “Love you to the moon and to… Jupiter”.It became a hot topic on the internet quickly. Other speculated that they could be dating privately for years now. While some netizen think they were probably college sweethearts whose paths collided again after so many years to continue a postponed romance.
“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
