Loving Jupiter STBS: chap 76
ASTRA “Go home,” I whispered at Sirius munching on a chicken drumstick beside me while holding a big bucket on his lap. We were at the couch side by side inside the hospital room. It’s already ten in the evening but he’s still here and really acting like the hospital is a freaking playground! He would leave the room occasionally but would come back twenty minutes later with bags of food! As a result, the single couch beside us was already full since they wouldn’t fit anymore on the bedside table! “Well aren’t you so rude, Astra? Can’t you see that I’m eating here?” I glared at him and slightly nudged him, but he only winced shortly and went back to munching again. “And how else do you think I would go home? I didn’t bring my car. Don’t tell me you’d suggest I take a private transpo?” “Why don’t you call your manager?” “Oh!” He dropped the chicken back to its bucket. “I haven’t told him I’m back yet.” “But I’m sure he already have an idea. Many passengers saw us in the airport

ASTRA "By the way..." I trailed off before taking a quick sip on my milk shake. "My manager came here this morning, while you were asleep." I informed him who was busy chomping on his pancake. His forehead creased a bit before he raised a brow at me. "Your ex-boyfriend?" A frowns spread across my face. Then I kicked him slightly under the table and he frowned back, wincing a bit. "What? I thought you dated him?" "I did. But stop reminding me!" I replied in irritation. "Oh, why? Was he not a good boyfriend?" "Stop prying over that matter. Anyway, as I was saying... he was here earlier." "And?" He cocked a brow, looking uninterested as ever. "Any good news about your tarnished career?" I rolled my eyes. "And that, too. Stop reminding me about my career's current state. I'm not even sure how I'm gonna market myself to the public again. Or if I'd ever reclaim my shine back. And mind you, you're not one to talk?!" Sirius laughed out loud and shook his head. "True, true. But you kn

SIRIUSAstra is such a funny mystery to me. She have one of the richest surname in the country beside her name and yet she’s a loner at school, being bullied by everyone. Well, technically, they’re not bullying her physically. But then, the subtle judgement from the school mates’ stares would be enough to kill off someone’s self esteem and affect them mentally and emotionally.Ah, well… she’s just like me. But the difference is, she’s pathetic at it. While I, on the other hand, was okay being alone. I love being on my own and not being bothered by these low class idiots.But that was I initially thought before I even had my first interaction with her. Surprisingly, she’s a lioness! Was my observation incorrect all this time? Her words are harsh and her yes could kill. Definitely not someone you would easily get along well with.“Wow. And here I was pitying you for being bullied and a loner in this school. Turns out you’re just a plain bitch who deserved it!” I retorted after she just

ASTRA When I was a kid, back when I wasn’t even in high school just yet, the bookstore is my favorite hangout place for so many reasons. I love reading! I love discovering new ideas! It is also my mother’s work place after she quit designing for a high end brand. But most importantly, there’s this particular type of reading material I always love to check out during my free time. A visual book. A magazine. In those pages, there are beautiful tall women wearing elegant clothes. They look mysterious and intimidating. My mother calls them a model. She then mentioned that she use to work with those kind of women before. Ever since I learned about models, I dreamed of becoming one as well. I learned to dressed up properly though my closet used to consist of average looking clothes. I’ve learned to fix my posture, and copied how models walk on the videos I used to search on the internet. It was a ridiculous dream I thought I wouldn’t be able to achieve. I thought it’ll always stay as a

ASTRAPulling my luggage out of the room, I left it in the living room before walking my way towards Sirius' bedroom door. I knocked twice before pushing it open to check if he's ready to leave."All done?" I asked, watching him comb his wet hair as he stood at the side of his bed wearing a black jeans and yellow flannels with a white shirt underneath it.I, on the other hand, was wearing a white basic crop top and denim jeans. I wore a cream colored three inches sandals to partner it. My hair was also in a messy bun. He nodded before stashing his comb quickly inside his bag. I turned my back and walked back to the living room. The bellboys are already outside to escort out of the resort."Aww. I'm gonna miss this place! By the way I haven't seen the photos you took of me here.""I'll show you in the plane later. Come on, the staffs are waiting."We pulled our luggage together outside and was greeted by warm farewells from the staff. They already called a taxi for us that'll take us

ASTRAI plopped down on the hotel mattress as soon as we got inside the room. It's a double bed room and way more spacious than the ones we got in Paris. There's even a tiny kitchen on the right side of the room and a wide veranda on the left, overlooking the fun city of Camden and the markets lined up in the streets.A smile made its way to my lips. "Already liking it more than Paris. I'd love to walk downstairs tonight.""Uh-huh. It's one-thirty. Aren't you hungry? We haven't eaten lunch yet.""So call for room service."Sirius walked towards me, holding onto the sides of his waist with a stern expression. "They don't offer that here. It's self service Miss Ma'am. They have a cafeteria downstairs.""Oh! That sucks," I frowned. "Well then, I'll just change and maybe freshen up a bit then we'll head down for lunch.""Okay. Just meet me downstairs."I nodded shortly before hurrying to open my luggage and stepping inside the bathroom. The main door closed loudly and I began stripping o

ASTRA I tied my hair in a high ponytail and grabbed my wallet before finally stepping out of the hotel room. I feel kinda nervous as I began gathering witty remarks in my head in case Sirius brings up the mess I just did some moments ago. I got in the ground floor in a few seconds and asked a patrolling guard for the direction to the cafeteria. He politely pointed the left hallway to me and I muttered a curt thanks to him before heading towards that direction. Immediately, I spotted Sirius from the glass wall of the cafeteria, seated just near the entrance. He found my eyes as well and he frowned deeply as his head tilted, as if telling me to walk faster and sit already ‘cause he’s already famish from the merely hour long flight. “Oh! Pepper steak-” “Ah-uh!” He stopped me and pushed the chicken meal towards me as soon as I settled in on the chair in front of him. I frowned in annoyance. “Why would you buy me this? This chicken looks so dry! You could’ve gotten the steak for both

ASTRA I huffed in an annoyance as I marched my way to my unit. He really isn’t thinking straight when he made that announcement to Sally Shelby! I’m sure the fans and everyone else are laughing at us right now! And I’m sure my management would be mad about this news. I’m betting they’ll be ringing my phone in less than twenty four hours to confirm all of these from me. I showered quickly when I got to my room and plopped down on my bed grumpily. . I was on the verge of falling asleep when my phone pinged beside my pillow. I groaned in annoyance thinking it was Sirius but then replaced by a tiny smile when I saw Lee’s contact number on my lock screen. Lee: Hey! How is it going? Enjoying Louvre? My lips slightly pursed to stifle my smile. My fingers quickly moved to type in a reply. Me: Just got home actually. Something came up! But I enjoyed it nevertheless. Can’t wait to see it again someday. What about you? What have you been up to today? I was grinning widely while typing d

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.
