Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend A Cold Night
Even if we were not looking at each other's eyes, my heart felt Ghino's desperation. I may have no idea about his past and the reason he chose to be with me instead of his family, but I know he badly wanted to get out of that hell of a place. So I stealth a glance at his face for about ten seconds. He was fucking serious about his pleading. "What do you suggest?" I asked despite being skeptical. "I just don't want to be alone tonight, Elaine," he replied, his cold voice gave me goosebumps. "I'll tell you everything." "That would be a long story to tell, I believed," I giggled shortly to lift the mood. "How about your condo? Would a bottle of beer and a slice of pizza will do?" Ghino and I miraculously met not long ago but, undeniably, I started to feel comfortable being with him. I don't know if it was because I find him attractive and more mature. He and Dylan are indeed brothers of the same lineage. Because I proposed this time, Ghino finally cracked the corn

"My twenty-eight years in this world were already a mess until I met you, Elaine," Ghino replied, his drunken eyes fixed on me. "I don't want to get back to that kind of life. The feeling was exhausting and suffocating." With those longing cold words, the tears in my eyes could not stop from pouring. There was more of his life story that meets the eye apart from what he told me earlier. One of the reasons that I wanted to stay away from him was that I started to feel comfortable being with him. For me, that was a betrayal of my feelings for Dylan. And the last thing that I want to happen is to put an extension of the tension between the two. I may have not paid much attention to Ghino compared to Dylan but I cared for them both. Ghino deserves someone better. Better than me. Someone who would love him unconditionally. "Then, what am I supposed to do?" I slid closer to his spot and helped him wipe the tears from his eyes. "I am not good at making decisions. Can'
Last Updated : 2023-09-03Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend A Night's Confession
I gradually dropped my gaze back to those documents across from me to avoid seeing Dylan's sharp eyes. Over the years of being best friends with him, this was the first time his stares suffocated me as though he wanted me to vanish in an instant. This was also the first time he questioned my sincerity of being friends with him. He knows that I approached him without asking anything in return. Questioning my sincerity may be an undersized matter to him, but to me, it speaks of everything. Being friends with him was all I had. I even distanced myself from the world to make sure I could grant his Mom's last wish to protect him. How am I supposed to protect him when, Dylan, himself, wanted to get rid of me already? Before the heavy tension hangs the air further, I move out of my seat and do what I am good at. "Here are the latest updates of the construction, Mr. Spencer. Based on the statistics, the progress already reached 90%." I replied after sliding the documents

No matter how drunk a person is, I believe their subconscious is still working. So I waited for Dylan to say something about my confession. It took me seven years and two hundred sixty-nine days to be exact. Finally, for the first time, I managed to muster the courage and confess my feelings for him. And I realized that confessing to him was not that difficult at all. While holding onto that thought, it made me wonder if everything changed between me and Dylan if I managed to confess my feelings for him as early as before he met Maureen. "Dylan? Are you still awake?" Out of curiosity, I slapped his face to check if he was simply making fun of me or pretending to be asleep. But my instinct was proven wrong when he responded to me with a soft moan after getting the hard slap, followed by a loud snore. I could not help but crack up when the reality of making myself a fool struck me like a bolt of lightning. My courage was gone to waste when the man I wanted to he

"Elaine's new apartment is not a place for lost and found people, Maureen," Ghino's voice suddenly echoed in my ears coming from behind me. "Apart from the fact that I am the first person who knows her new place, we spent the night together." Then I was taken aback when he reached out to my hand and stood beside me. "And besides, if you have trust issues with your boyfriend, ask him yourself directly." he continued, "Instead of lashing out your insecurities to someone who's living in peace." Ghino opened the door for me and assisted me in hopping in. "Just ignore him, Elaine," he said while putting on my seatbelt. "I know Dylan had drinks with his friends last night and finished very late. There's no way he would reach out to you, right?" I accidentally bit the corner of my lower lips when I was taken aback by Ghino's unexpected question. Before I could say a word, I glanced outside the window to check if Mauren remained on her spot. Lucky for me, Maureen was alrea

"Then we're settled," Maureen removed her arms away from me and added, "I'll keep in touch with you from time to time for the updates, Elaine. Thank you so much for your kindness." Maureen did not even give me the chance to decline her proposal when she disappeared from the office in the blink of an eye. She already gets what she wants from me and those employees surrounding us - me getting intimidated. As soon as she disappeared from my sight, everyone also got back to their respective offices. The only thing I did after that was drop my butt on my chair, and my face on the desk. "God damn it, Elaine," I could not help but utter profanity. "You still have twenty-six days left and yet you are about to explode." "That's going to be the consequence of having a one-sided love, Ms. Elaine." Ms. Lalaine's image suddenly flickered through my helpless eyes. I slowly removed my head from the desk and fixed my eyes on her. Emptiness dominated my inexpressive eyes. "Sorr

I was supposed to be the one who must burst out crying but after hearing the bad news, my Mom did it on my behalf. Guess what? She cries way worse than me. My parents, especially Mom know everything about the "imaginary" Dylan Spencer, starting from his complete name, position in the company, his favorite dishes, places he liked to visit, and his history. "Imaginary" simply because they believed that everything I told them was all part of my helpless imagination. They believed that I was telling them about my ideal man and that even in my 24 years of existence, they never heard and saw me bringing and introducing someone home. They were even afraid that I might end up getting old and being single for the rest of my life. But despite all the nagging, teasing, and sacrifices, my entire family still loves and cares for me. And I love them back. That was why I worked hard day and night to provide them with their daily needs, especially when my dad had his daily mainten

Everyone who passed through the road could not help but feel suspicious of Dylan, thinking he might have maltreated me. But we both ignored them. Our eyes were fixed on each other and were waiting for one another to say something. "I cared for you, Elaine. Always, and you know that," he replied before he lifted his head to the cold gloaming sky. "But what I don't understand was when you leave me without saying goodbye or telling me about how you truly feel about me." My brain froze all of a sudden upon hearing his last sentence. I was supposed to be pleased by the sound of it but emptiness and hopelessness dominated my heart and mind as though the truth behind those words were filled with bitterness. "That night in your apartment," he continued, "I heard every word you whispered to me that night. You kissed me and you said you love me. Was that the reason you resigned?" "Do you even hear yourself, Dylan?" I scoffed in disbelief, "Does your wife know that you're her

"What do you mean you sold everything in our store?" Dad, out of the blue, appeared behind Dylan. He was drunk and was even carrying a bottle of alcohol in his hand. Never in my life, I have seen Dad getting drunk. I heard John Dave came home from school earlier but he was alone. But now he came home drunk. And it made me worried, believing he would lash out at Dylan. "Look, Mr. Fisher." Dylan insisted, ignoring Dad's zig-zag pace and twirling head. "I sold everything in your store..." To our surprise, Dad furiously smashed the bottle of alcohol to the ground with no signs of hesitation even if the fact that any of us might get hurt by it. The shattered sound when the bottle broke into pieces reverberated in my ears. Nervousness shivered down my spine as I remembered the last time Dylan visited the house. Dad, because he couldn't hold onto his anger, pointed the tip of his rifle straight into Dylan's head at that time. I don't want what happened in the past to
Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend I'm Gonna Marry Your Daughter
One month later. In the middle of our journey back to the province, I put my hand on Dylan's thigh while he was driving to see his reaction. The trip back to the province will be boring so I decided to break the ice. "Uh-ah!" Dylan quickly blurted as though he already knew what I was trying to do. "What?" I asked him teasingly, pretending to know nothing. "Don't do it." He said. "Don't do what?" I asked again, but I was trying harder not to laugh at his expression. His eyes were still focused on the road. "Don't start something you ain't gonna finish ma'am." "What are you talking about?" For the third time, I asked him, and this time, I started to laugh at his partly irritated and funny reaction. My little plan somehow worked out. To tease him. To make him laugh throughout our entire trip. I crazily missed Dylan's smile that much. It has been a month since all our problems have been fixed yet I barely see him smiling. "You know dang well what I
Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend Finding Maureen
The armored car roared down the desolate road, its engine humming with power. My heart raced, worries and fears cursing through my veins as I gripped the handrail tightly. Our eyes were fixed on the two cars ahead of us. The last image my eyes captured was Maureen and Bernard joining in one car while the rest of them used the other car. "Since when did you know about the truth?" Dylan asked, his voice started to get calm, but the speed of the car kept accelerating. I couldn't let go of my eyes to the road, but Dylan deserved to know the truth, so replied without looking at him, "Since last night. I caught Ghino - I mean, Bernard Scarlette, talking to Maureen over the phone. And I heard his confession with my own ears. He confessed all his crimes." "And they are going to pay for what they did to Dad and Ghino," he answered back with conviction. "I'll use everything to catch them even in hell." So he stepped onto the accelerator and sped up the car twice the spee
Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend Let's Die Together
"Elaine, can you hear me?" Another voice reverberated in my ears all of a sudden. "It's me, Noah. Listen to me, okay? The result came out. And the man who killed..." "What the hell is going on?" The head of the mission cut off Brother Noah's words. "Stop intervening, Noah. Elaine is in the middle of her negotiation now. We can't stop now." he insisted before he ordered. "Cut off everyone's line apart from mine. God damn it!" "No. Let him talk first. It's part of my plan. I need some information from him," I begged without moving the corner of my lips, and my undivided attention was focused on those men in masks across from me. "Are you deaf or something?" one of the masked men yelled. "Bring us the money." "Elaine, listen to me. What I found out was fucking insane." Brother Noah continued, making it hard for me to decide whether to answer the kidnappers or wait for his confession. "Proceed, Brother Noah. I'm listening, but I can only give you two minutes. We d
Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend Bernard Scarlette
I could not believe a murderer just passed through me and acted as if nothing happened. But how? How did it happen? Since when did he fabricate Ghino's face? What did I miss? How come I did not notice it when I got back to New York? Those were the questions that remained unanswered and were running wild inside my helpless brain. Right. I remember now. On the day I went back from Tennessee. The first place that I went to visit was the office. And he wrapped his arms around me the second he saw me. I noticed that his body lost body weight. Ghino, who is in his right mind, wouldn't lose body weight that much in just a month of me being gone. "Are just gonna stand there, Elaine?" The impostor asked again without looking at me. His eyes were fixed on the newspapers he was holding. "Right, Ms. Elaine. Have you forgotten anything?" Lalaine approached me and held my hand to check if something was wrong with me. "Umm... Yeah, I forgot to bring my phone." Luckily I alrea
Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend More of the Story
That was one for a fact. Maureen had every right to debate with Don Romualdo's lawyers as it was completely ridiculous. I mean, who am I to the family? Mr. and Mrs. Spencer simply hired me to be Dylan's secretary, nothing more, nothing less. It also made me wonder why me, a mere secretary, instead of Ghino who comes from their flesh and blood. No matter how hard I tried to think of one good reason to support their claim, my brain couldn't get one. Neither Don Romualdo, when he was still alive, nor Dylan told me about it either. "Please, enlighten us, Attorney," Ghino asked, breaking the awkward stares between me and Maureen. Mr. Vargas then slid a piece of brown envelope across from us. I was about to reach out to it but Maureen preceded me. She checked inside and studied it for a few seconds. All of us, including Ghino, drew several long curved lines while waiting for the piece of paper to drop on the table so we could read it. Instead of waiting, I tried to read
Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend The Last Will and Testament
Before that assumption happened, I mustered the courage and broke the silence, "My apologies, no matter how many times, I know, is not even enough to make you feel better. I cannot turn back time either. But it was not my intention to harm them. They were the kindest couple I have ever known my whole life." "But why of all the places had to be my parents, huh? He's a goddamn billionaire. You two could have rented an expensive hotel, run away to other countries, or buy a house. You two were old enough not to know how risky your situations are. Why?" "From the bottom of my heart, I'm so sorry about it, I really do," I replied, my voice barely above a whisper. Then I lifted my eyes to the ceiling to avoid the tears from pouring. "Dylan and I simply wanted to live a simple life, away from those who try to separate us." But no matter how hard I tried begging, stopping the tears from pouring, they were beyond my control. They flooded my cheeks like an open faucet with the ut
Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend A Scene in the Infirmary
Dad and Mom were left with no other choice but to tell me everything Ghino told them earlier. It turned out that based on the police officer's assumptions, those people who killed Mr. and Mrs. Delaven might not heard the latest press conference I made. So they assumed that Dylan was kidnapped to ask for more from the Spencers instead of the five million dollar bounty. However, they advised us to keep an eye on our phones from time to time, believing the kidnappers, whoever they were, would call one of us sooner or later. But I couldn't wait for the kidnappers to call me. Waiting for an hour while doing nothing would be a nightmare for me. So, I asked Mom and Dad that I wanted to go to the farm ASAP to check it myself - to get anything - clues or signs, perhaps Dylan left something before he was kidnapped. At first, Mom and Dad highly disagreed as it was too risky for me to travel back to Tennessee that late. But I insisted and burst into tears because I needed to see M
Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend A Slap and A Punch
"Let go of me, you fucking slut!" Maureen continued as she attempted to remove my grip. I know she was not the kind of woman who wanted to get beaten up by someone like me. She would rather use everything in her power to get rid of everyone who dared bark at her or cross her path. Just like what she did to me and Dylan. Maureen was definitely the perfect female version of the devil; arrogant, bigoted, close-minded, greedy, hypocritical, and all the negative traits in the world. She was comparable to a cute and lovely pup in front of you. But once you turned your face and back around, she shifted into a huge poisonous anaconda snake. She will use her tail to encircle your whole body, bite your neck until your blood floods the floor, gets numbed, and begs her to spare your life. That's what she really is. However, I already decided not to get stepped on by someone like Maureen. So I held her hands harder than she could ever imagine. She was about to use her left
