Loving Jupiter Chapter 97
JUPITER'S point of viewMy gut feeling is telling me that they might have gone inside the woods. The policemen immediately called for a backup before we take actions. I was already getting impatient and worried 'cause it might be too late for us!"Can't we go ahead already?" I asked, a little annoyed. Venus slightly nudged me and shook her head.The police I was talking to shook his head firmly. However, the other man approached us and patted him on the back."I have a bad feeling about this. If we do not take actions now, it might be too late," he said, genuinely worried, which made me hopeful. "The both of you will stay here with Officer Morales. The rest of us will go for a search. Once the backups arrive, send another car to go straight along this road so we can make sure we're not looking at the wrong place."My jaw dropped at his suggestion. "Wait, what? No! I'm coming with you all!" I protested firmly.Venus stepped forward and held

JUNO'S point of viewOne final glance from the closed window, I carefully pushed the door open, just enough for my body to slide out of the car.I was sweating hardly from anxiety and fear of being caught in the act. I glanced back at the window to check on the three men outside. I'm still facing their backs as they were busy puffing cigarettes and talking shit near the cliff.One more silent push, I bit my lower lip and bent down carefully before pushing one leg out. I'm not even breathing anymore! I was too afraid that even a simple sigh would jeopardize my escape plan!I muttered another prayer before pushing the door wider to finally let half of my body out. My eye were never leaving the demons outside. I swear if they got me killed right now and I find out that my good boyfriend is not doing anything to save me, I'll come back as a ghost to haunt him every fucking night!I'm literally risking my life for you! I screamed inside my head.

JUNO'S point of view"I live in the city but I usually come and hang out here when I need some time alone. My grandfather own this land and he built this tree house for my sister."I continued munching on the bread while listening silently to his stories. I found out that his name is Niel. He's just twenty and still in college. Apparently, he failed one subject and got into a heated fight with his mother, reason why he's in here right now."My grandparents' house is ten minutes away from here. We can go there and get you slippers? And treat your wounded feet, too."I leaned on the window and looked around."Can I borrow your phone?""You can. However, I already ran out of battery. The charger's in my car and it was parked in my grandparents' house."I sighed and smiled at him, nevertheless. I brought my gaze back to the window with alertness."Why are you here? Are you running away from someone?""Yes. I was kidnapped this morning."

JUPITER'S point of view"Are you crazy? They're just gonna run after you and drag you back here. You're not the fastest runner I know." Venus silently admonished me while trying to hold me back from escaping away. She's tightly gripping on my shirt just to stop me.I rolled my eyes and tried to swat away her hand. "We'll see about that. Stay here and don't follow.""Of course, I'll follow! What? Those cops are surely gonna chase you and I'll be left alone here? Hell no!"I groaned out loud at her stubbornness. Of course, why do I have to share the same personality with her?I didn't respond anymore. All I could think about now is Juno and her safety. Without any hesitation, I forcefully pulled my shirt out from my sister's grip and jogged across the road. When my feet finally touched the grasses, that's when I started quickening my pace."Jupiter! Goddamn it!" Venus yelled, and so as the cops. I run faster when they began chasing me.

JUNO'S point of viewI teared up happily as we watch from the window how the police easily caught the man who brought threat to my being. Neil clapped and cheered joyously which gathered everyone's attention. Relief flashed on everyone's faces upon seeing us. The police quickly motioned for us to come down so we didn't waste any more time.Neil threw out the ladder rope and climbed down first, assisting me right after. I was so thankful and amazed 'cause they were able to locate us! I thought it'll take me quite long considering that my phone was gone. There is nothing left to use to trace me. "Are you hurt, Ms. Soledad. We're already calling an ambulance to have you checked," one of the police interrogated me and I chuckled before shaking my head."I got slapped once but I don't think it's that serious.""Yeah? Look at your feet," Neil pointed out and I cussed when I remembered how severely wounded my feet were.It must be the relie

JUPITER'S point of viewThe relief that washed over me when I saw Juno being carried out of the forest was above the sky. I thought I've lost her! I thought we're too late!I carried her to the ambulance when I saw her wounded and bleeding feet. She must've ran for her life, barefooted in the woods... scared and feeling helpless.I couldn't help but blame myself continuously for this. Venus and Juno... the only women in my life, I nearly lost them today. If they weren't brave enough to defy those fucking demons who want nothing but to harm them, I'm probably mourning by now.I shook my head to erase those thoughts in my head. I shouldn't be thinking of those what-ifs if bravery and luck didn't cooperate with us today. All that matters right now is they are both safe. "Jupiter, son!" My Dad appeared in the hallway after I exited Juno's room to face the police. "What is happening right now? Your girlfriend and sister got kidnapped? Where are they? I

JUNO'S point of viewSebastian Acosta left the room after paying us a visit upon hearing the kidnapping incident. He wasn't able to stay longer since he still have so much problems left on his plate from the recent company issue.Venus totally understood. And the old man didn't have to stay with us longer anyway since we're not badly injured in the first place. Unexpectedly, Jupiter arrived back sooner. We were actually on our way out after Venus was done signing my discharge papers. Neil was kindly helping me with my wheelchair while I was eating some fruits on my lap.My eyes sparkled happily when Jupiter appeared on the hallway and jogged towards us. "You're back early! What did you say to the police?"He smiled, bent down, and then kissed me on the forehead. He looked at Neil shortly, as if telling him that he'll take over in pushing the wheelchair for me."Dear God, I hope you didn't screw up the interrogation!" Venus muttered hopefu

JUNO'S point of viewI stretched my limbs and searched for Jupiter beside me. When my palm met the empty mattress on my side, my eyes quickly fluttered open. Where is that man again?!I yawned out loud before sitting up on the bed. I slept in his condo to grant his personal request. When I looked around the bedroom, I rolled my eyes when I saw his used clothes scattered on the floor. He must've gone to work really early 'cause it's just seven in the morning based on the wall clock across me!I looked at the bedside table, expecting a hand written note from him but found nothing in there. I assumed he must have placed them on the fridge or near my food.However, my expectations were met by disappointments when none of those things are around the kitchen. No hand written letter. No food on the table. I groaned out loud and pushed the wheelchair towards the coffee maker. I bet that man didn't even eat or had his coffee before going out. I'm disa

Loving Jupiter STBS: the end
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
Loving Jupiter STBS: chap 92
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
Loving Jupiter STBS: chap 90
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.
