Loving Jupiter STBS: chap 93
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

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

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.

I almost tripped on the front porch stairs on my way out while trying to chase my Uncle's car.Due to my desperation to arrive in time, I knocked on the car's window; even when I'm completely aware he'd scream on my face after I just touched one of his prized possessions. School is half an hour away from the house and if I won't do this, I might fail one of my subjects. This wouldn't be a problem to me had my professor for the first exam isn't the most terror and inconsiderate person I've ever known my entire life.I nearly rolled my eyes. Why am I being surrounded with loathsome and unrighteous persons? What have I done so punishable in my life that He put me in this kind of environment.

The auditorium was packed with students in their graduation gowns, holding their diplomas and academic cap while cheering in utter joy after the ceremony and awarding just finished. Their parents were all beside them, taking pictures while proudness was all etched on their faces, nearly tearing up.“Let’s take a picture, guys… for remembrance!” One of my classmates shouted while motioning for us to come closer towards the grand podium.I happily obliged. Who knows when we’ll be seeing one another again? Maybe ten years later for a batch reunion? I’ll miss them for sure, even when I’m not that close to most of them. I hope for everyone’s dream and career to flourish after this… ‘cause that’s where I’m surely heading to.“Hey, put Jupiter in front! You cannot have him in the back with all that medals and awards!” Jacob shouted from a distance. He’s with his ow
Loving Jupiter Chapter 3
Jupiter is asking me out to a sushi date. A date. A freaking date! Turns out I didn’t embarrass myself after all. Thank goodness I have the courage to shoot my shot! Those glitters I stitched on the envelope are quite expensive… but it’s worth it!“What’s with your face?” Lilac friskily bumped me on the shoulder. I laughed at her as I continued washing the remaining dishes on the sink. My shift is about to finish in an hour so I told Jupiter to meet me after work.It’s our school break so I decided to spend the whole summer earning money. I’m currently working as a waitress and dishwasher at a cheap eatery near our campus. During the night, I’m freelancing in different online platforms for extra money. What I learned in life is not to settle in one income. You need side hustles in case you get fired from your main job.“Well…” I giggled before facing her. “My crush aske
Loving Jupiter Chapter 4
Juno must have thought it was an invitation for a date. Seeing how she dressed up for the first time since I met her made the guilt in my chest tripled. Her face was glowing. The dress hugged her body beautifully. And the way she walks in those high heels made her looked like a supermodel.I looked away from her and bit my lower lip guiltily. She’s been extremely silent since she entered my car, unlike before wherein she already got a story to tell and a joke to present. I could even taste the air of awkwardness suffocating the two of us.The music was my way to give her a hint. But instead, I ended up looking like a tasteless motherfucker in her eyes. How else am I gonna tell her that we can’t date ‘cause one of us isn’t straight? I don’t want to embarrass myself, or casually spread my secret when I couldn’t even tell my own father about it.“I’m sorry…” I looked away and apologized as I
