Sebastian Acosta was too happy about the news that he made a quick arrangement of buffet celebration for the whole company. We were supposed to eat out but he changed his mind and immediately ordered for the function hall to be decorated.
I shook my head, smiling, while eyeing Jupiter and his father talk with full enthusiasm with some other important persons in the company. Sir Sebastian even made a short speech earlier, praising Jupiter to the fullest because of this success.
Monica was beside me with her pasta and steak while having her full attention on the phone. She seemed to be having a chat fight with somebody because of the way she’s tapping violently on her phone’s screen. My lips protruded as I resumed eating the chocolate cake on my plate.
Jupiter then walked towards us after a few minutes of socializing with the others. He sat in between me and Monica who remained sneering at her phone. I cleared my throat awkwardly when he
Juno and Eugene were set to formally meet today. If it wasn’t for my fucked up schedule these past few days, they could’ve meet earlier this noon. However, Juno and I had to spend the whole day in the office to make up for the rest of our absences. I pushed back their meeting this night.I originally want to made a reservation for us three in a restaurant for this meet up. But then, Venus’ suspicions about Eugene made me change my mind. As much as possible, I don’t want to be seen together with him anymore in public.I sighed out in exhaustion after I was done setting the dining area. We left the office at five in the evening so I have no more time left to cook for us. I just made some orders for our dinner and decorated the dining quickly.After I was satisfied with the set up, I went to my room so I can finally shower and change into a much more comfortable pair of clothes. I wore a plain white sweatshirt and a black cargo
To complete my look for tonight, I swiped the red lipstick on my bottom lip and puckered my mouth in front of the mirror. I then twirled to have a have a glimpse of my outfit from the back. Perfect! I smirked in satisfaction.I gabbed my bag and strutted out of my bedroom with Pickle following my every move. Lydia smiled widely at me when I reached the small living room of my apartment. I thankfully smiled back at her for visiting me here in surprise and bringing my leftover stuff in the mansion. I was able to pick some accessories for my clothes because of her.“You look lovely as ever, Juno.” The old woman complimented me and my heart swelled in happiness. I’m grateful to have her as my second parent when Mom and Dad passed away.“Thank you so much, Lydia! I’m really sorry to leave you here on the day of your visit. I promise to be quick!”Lydia shook her head, smiling at me in assurance. “It&rsquo
I yawned tiredly before plopping on the soft mattress of the hotel room Eugene rented in for us. We just arrived and I felt so tired from that two hour drive. And not to mention, I actually haven’t sleep decently.I yawned once again as I snuggled closer on the pillows and throwing the comforter on my body. I’m still on my jeans and it’s surely uncomfortable as fuck but my sleepiness won over my comfort. I heard Eugene groaned at my behavior.“Jupiter, come on! We didn’t come here for you to sleep. Let’s eat breakfast outside and try some of their beach activities.” He nagged and I hummed tiredly in response. “Later, love.”“Jupiter! I’m hungry!”“Can’t you eat on your own? Please, I’m tired. Let me sleep for at least two hours.” I accidentally raised my voice at him and regret immediately struck my chest when shock and pain register
Jupiter is coming over. I let him. He’s sad and needs comfort. And probably in need of some unsolicited advice that I’d be giving to help him fix his relationship with his ass boyfriend.I hurriedly looked for my hair dryer and changed into a much prettier t-shirt. He’d be here in ten minutes! Will I be able to put a proper make up by that time-I froze when I realized what I’m doing. What was that? What the hell am I doing?When my eyes landed on the new shirt I was wearing, I frowned in my reflection because I knew damn well I only use this shirt whenever I’m going out. I sat weakly at the edge of my bed, speechless and stunned at my own actions.I awkwardly laughed and saw my cat turned to me with curious eyes.“Of course, Jupiter is coming over! He’s a guest! And it’s normal to want to look good in front of a guest! This is totally fine!” I kept convincing myself as I pro
“Hello dear sister! How’s your day going so far?”I looked up from my computer and watched Venus strutted my office before dropping a dessert box on top of my messy table. She smiled brightly at me before taking a seat on the chair to face me.“I brought you a carrot cake. It’s the best seller in my shop right now,” she beamed and I cringed, taking a peek on the box.She hit my arm when she noticed the disgusted expression on my face.“Thanks but don’t ever bring another one of that again. I’d rather you bring me those yummy red velvet cupcakes.”But since I don’t want to disappoint her, I’d have a slice later and maybe… give the rest of the box to Juno.“Tss! You unhealthy ass! Where’s your girlfriend? I dropped by next door but she’s not inside.&rd
“We broke up,” he announced the moment he sat on my couch.And although I was hoping for that to happen because Eugene was obviously an ass, I didn’t like the gloom and sadness flashing in his eyes because of the breakup.What the actual fuck? He actually cheated? And to make it worse, it’s because of a woman.I stared at Jupiter who’s now sobbing after the third can. He was sprawled on my living room floor while Katy Perry was blasting on the speaker. Gee, I really hope my neighbors aren’t hearing all these.Using a woman to cheat on him would surely make a deeper bruise on his ego. And I’m afraid he’ll be so insecure about it…I was sad… but I did my best to laugh out loud along the music to make the atmosphere lighter. Jupiter wiped his wet face and cracked up too. He pushed to his feet and grabbed me
(Remains on the female lead’s point of view)I was shaking in anger and fear while dragging myself back inside my apartment. Eugene was long gone but I remained there on my door step for God knows how long. I threw myself on the couch, breathing hard as I couldn’t believe what just happened.Did that asshole really came here to send an indirect threat? He's mad and obsessed! He needs help!Pickle hopped on the couch and snuggled to me, purring so loud. My chest was moving up and down so I run my fingers along her shiny fur, trying to calm myself down. When I’m sure I’m finally okay, I got up from the couch and run to my bedroom to look for my phone.I called Jupiter but even after the third missed call, nobody was picking up! I began panicking because of it. He’s not usually taking too long to answer! Did something bad happened?I couldn’t thin
