ROSE

"I'll pretend I didn't hear that," I muttered while looking ahead on the road, and he spared me a glance. I saw him through my peripheral vision, wanting to talk, but he held back and continued driving in silence.

I didn't realize I had slept all the way to the resort until I was woken up to find out the car had stopped moving. As I opened my eyes slowly, I saw someone looking at me intently, lovingly. That someone was Valentino.

"What's with the creepy smile?" I stretched and shifted my gaze from his face.

"You look like a baby when you sleep, so innocent and sweet," he said with a sheepish grin.

I clicked my tongue in frustration. "Who would think the almighty Valentino would behave so cutely?" I feigned a smile.

"You made me like this," he replied as I sighed.

"Where are we?" I asked as I looked around and realized we were somewhat close to the countryside.

"The resort," he replied, unhooking his seat belt.

"Since when did we get here?" I asked.

"A while, at least for an hour,

    ROSE“Uhm….ma’am the thing is that we are here for someone.” I started to say again while the receptionist stared at me attentively. “A patron of this suite, Vicente Sabatini. We want to see him.” I said, trying to look for a shortcut out of this bloody situation.“Is there a problem if I may ask?” The receptionist asked as I glanced at Valentino as if begging him to help out but he seemed uninterested. So much for a person who said he wanted to help out. “No..” I shook my head.“Well, if that is so, then we can’t relay divulge information about our guest. We have a strict policy against that, ma’am.” She replied again in that polite manner that made it hard to get mad at her. I closed my eyes and sucked in some breath.“Let’s just get to the suite and we will find Vicente.” Valentino moved close to me and said.“Yeah,” I said with a feigned smile. “That’s your most ideal solution.” I glared at him in annoyance and turned to the receptionist who was ever patient.“We’ll have the sui

    ROSEI took in a deep breath as he traced his fingers on my skin beneath the armless gown I wore. "Yes," I said as his lips curved into a smile. He lifted me up and led me to the shower room, and the rest became history.A few minutes later, we lay on the bed, both naked, staring at each other in silence, while I tried to quell the nagging thoughts that made me feel guilty."Not that look again, Rose," he said as he rubbed my cheek."What face?""Like you made a mistake," he replied as I tried to maintain my composure.I blinked my eyes to avoid his gaze. "Look at that, you can't even look at me now. What is wrong, Rose? What are we doing wrong that you're so afraid of?"I looked into his eyes and saw a look of sheer terror. "I don't know… I…" I quickly sat up, holding the duvet to my chest as if I hadn't shamelessly undressed earlier and joined him in the shower.He lay on his back and stared at the ceiling. "Is it because of my brothers? Do you love them too?" he asked as I glanced

    I quickly rushed back to the suite to find Valentino, completely forgetting the fact that he was mad at me.The moment I opened the door, I found him staring in front of me, giving me an expressionless face. He was now in another clothing, a white sweatshirt and baggy black pants that made him like a sweet college boy, a sharp contrast to the president he was.“Hi,” I said almost immediately, while he continued staring at me with a long look, his hands dipped in his pocket.“Don’t pretend everything is fine and smile cutely.” He said with a drawl and walked back inside I bit my lips and closed the door, following after him.“Were you going out?” I followed him closely as he walked, and when he turned abruptly we bumped into each other.“You don’t learn, do you?” He said with a pissed look. Is he being serious right now? Getting mad at what exactly?! Not now! My mind screamed.“I am sorry,” I said with a sheepish grin as he rolled his eyes.“For?”“Hitting your drink away?” I said try

    ROSEIt had been over thirty minutes since Valentino had entered the manager's room, and I couldn't stop pacing back and forth in our suite, exasperated, while I wondered about what they could be doing together."Now you're acting like a clingy, jealous girlfriend," Arya remarked as I cleared my throat."That's not true. I don't care about what they do," I forced myself to shrug, but the mere thought of Valentino touching that woman the way he did made my body cringe. I walked to the bed and sat down, willing my hand to stop nervously shaking."What's taking them so long?" I bit my index finger's nail as the door opened, revealing Valentino. He stood there with his hands in his pockets, looking very relaxed. How could he be so composed while I was a nervous wreck?"Hey," I stood up quickly and rushed to him as he closed the door and came toward me."Are you sweating? Why do you look so pale? Are you sick?" He asked, a worried crease on his brow as he placed a hand on my forehead and w

    "He knows we’re here but doesn't want to see anyone," he said as I stared at him, confused."What is that supposed to mean?" I asked."It means he came here to hide and doesn't appreciate our presence. I knew coming here was a bad idea," he muttered the last statement to himself while I ignored him. That was the least of my problems."How are you so sure that is what he wants? Did you get his exact room number? I won't leave here until I meet Vicente," I said while Valentino watched me with a lazy stare."Do you think I fabricated it?" He raised a brow, trying not to look pissed, even though his tone hinted he was."Did you?" I asked, and I knew it was a bad idea immediately it left my mouth."What is wrong with you, Rose?" He asked in a low tone, irritation evident on his face, but I was willing myself not to care.I had received a text when he had gone to meet the manager from Marco. The chairman was mad. And now, it wasn't even about the money anymore. Now, I felt entitled to make

    "What are you trying to prove, Vicente? I’ve told you. We aren’t together. There’s no need to choose," I said after finding my voice."Fine. I see you’ve thought it through. Use the door, Rose," he started to turn away when I quickly rushed to his front. He rolled his eyes and exhaled."Think about your grandfather. He’s worried sick, Vicente.""I don’t care," he shoved. "There’s nothing for me back there. I lost Mum," he said, his eyes bored. "Now I think I lost you too, Rose.""You don’t own me. Neither of you brothers do, okay!" I snapped suddenly, hating how helpless I looked in front of me as I fought back the tears that threatened to spill from my eyes."What I have going on, with any of you, you wouldn’t understand, trust me, Vicente. You would never understand how I feel," I said in a calm, almost pleading tone."Tell me. What is it? Why is it so hard to take a stance, Rose? Is it Valentino’s money? Is it because he’s next in line?" He asked without emotion as the tears finall

    VICENTE The moment my eyes fell on my other brother, I couldn’t explain my feelings at that moment. Anger? Hate? Regret?"Valerio?" Rose breathed as she stared at him, like he was some missing part of her life that she critically needed. My eyes lingered on her as my blood boiled in rage while Valerio walked effortlessly towards her, smiling at her as if they were some kind of special acquaintance."Am I missing something?" He raised his head and looked from me to Valentino, who wasn't looking too pleased to see him either."You aren't supposed to be here," Valentino said, and one could discern how much he hated that Valerio was here."Why? I heard my little brother was missing. I had to do something," Valerio said."Don't bullshit me, Valerio," I said and forced my gaze away from Rose, whose face had turned red from seeing Valerio."I’ll have the staff get an additional chair. You're welcome to join us, Valerio," Rose finally spoke up as Valerio nodded."How did you find us?" Valent

    "Drink!" Valentino stretched his hands toward the mug with a sarcastic look as he watched his brother. When Vicente had made such an ungracious dare, she had stiffened. Was it because of the talk they had? She could see the look in Vicente's eyes when he asked him, like more of a challenge. We hadn't expected Valentino to pass."Why?" Vicente asked as Valentino made to grab the mug. "It's just a kiss," he shrugged.Valentino made an irritated face and glanced at me shortly, then back to Vicente. "I am not just interested," he said, grabbing the mug and drinking a full glass of beer."Right, you're not," I could hear Vicente mutter."I think we should stop, guys," I said as I felt the tension brewing. There were sniping conflicts between them already, and I wouldn't want them to have another brawl, or it would be high time the chairman finds out, and the money I will have to pay for breaking the damages."Why? We are only getting started, Rose. Besides, I'm not enjoying this," Valentin

    ROSE"What’s with the face?” Renata turned to the passenger side to look at me.“Marco said to come in now,” she said as I sighed, nervously tucking my fingernails into my mouth.“How will he react when he sees me?” I turned to look at her; she smiled. “I mean, I just left like that without a real goodbye, like a selfish….” The words hung in my mouth as she placed a hand on mine.“Don’t… this is for your happiness. These past few days have been hell for you. I won’t let you leave here without meeting him at least once,” she said. When I still seemed hesitant, she continued.“I heard he has been combing the whole world trying to find you. Imagine how he is going to feel,” she said with a reassuring smile, and I gave her a tight smile.I would fool myself if I said that served as any comfort. “Well… I guess I have to go now,” I said as Renata nodded.“Yeah… Go on, don’t keep your man waiting,” she teased, and I returned a tight smile.Now in front of Valentino’s office, the door suddenl

    VALENTINO“What the hell is this?” I raised up the file the head of strategy department in the New York just brought in, as I stared at the blonde with a pissed expression.“Sir, it’s the….”“Fuck this.” I muttered under my breath as I stood up, the other man’s head slightly bowed in fear.For the past three days here in New York, I have been on the edge. Every single thing got me pissed. And this was bad, it got worse everyday as the project we are working on was being hindered due to lack of progress.“Leave now.” I cupped my face in my palm. “Until you find a better plan.” I raised up my head to look at him, so he could understand the gravity of the situation from my expression.“Alright sir.” His American accent came out calmly. They were used to it. Or maybe they forced themselves to just bear with my cranky attitude.I rested back on the leather chair following the sound of the door closing and closed my eyes, took in a deep breath and her image mirrored in my head.My eyelid fl

    VICENTEFew months later….“Calling out of the blue to pick you up , eh? Do I look like your manager or driver?” Marco asked Vicente who occupied the back seat, while he drove, his eyes on the road.“Must you complain about everything, Marco? I just called this once and you can let it slip.” I replied, my eyes out in the window as I take in the afternoon view of Venice, it wasn’t like there was anything fascinating about it, I just wanted to be distracted.“Plus my Manager is on a break….”“A break you let him have. And now you’re being all grumpy towards me. I still think it’s unfair.” He looked at me through the rear mirror but I didn’t spare him a glance.“You don’t look good, Vicente .” He said again after a moment do silence.“It’s feels so empty.” I mumbled to myself as I reminisce on how the recent days felt like hell….all because of the absence of one person.“What?” Marco asked, completely confused.“I wonder if they feel it too.” I said again. “My brothers.” I looked throug

    “Vicente.” I called slowly, the smile on my face fading away as I watched me intently. As we both stared at each in silence, he suddenly burst into a smile while I watched in confusion.“What’s with the look?” He asked with a chuckle, while I stared in confusion.“Ugh?” I asked, blinking.“I should be asking you that.” I licked my lips nervously, desperate to understand what was going through that head of his.“I pulled a little joke and you fell for it immediately? How cute.” He played with my cheeks as I let out a sigh and forced a slight chuckle….while throwing my face to the other side.The feeling of guilt overwhelming me again.Like hell I would believe that, it was a mere joke. I caught a sign of it. A sign of pain.I stood up abruptly as he followed me up too and stared at me with careful gaze.“I need to go.” I said, looking at him.“Ugh?” He raised his gaze in confusion, and for a minute I got lost in that curious wide eyes of his. As he watched me, it felt like he was sendi

    ROSE“What were you trying to do?” I forced my gaze away from Valentino to Valerio who scoffed in disbelief.He stared at me in the disapproving glare that he as trying to moderate. But his emotions won’t let him.“I heard everything. The conversation between you and Vicente.” I said as he raised his brow in a knowing stare while I pressed my lips.“It doesn’t give any right to act out, Valerio.” I said again, everything coming out of my mouth with so much difficulty because the difficult part was yet to come. The reason I was here.“You can’t keep supporting him in this bloody time!” He seethed angrily as he watched me, his expression a mixture of anger and denial.From the corner of my eyes, I could see Valentino watching us. I bowed my head slightly as I played with my fingers, my whole body tensed.I couldn’t back down. I can’t go back on my word just because of the kind of emotion that was flowing through me at that point.“It doesn’t matter anymore.” I said and raised my head t

    “What is it?” I watched him,a little scared of what to expect.I wasn’t sure why. But when it concerns Rose. It was good enough to get me nervous.He sighed heavily and shoved his hand through his hair. “I shouldn’t be telling you this but….”“Go on Vicente.” I chimed in smoothly as he watched me with a nervous expression.“It was a setup.” He said as I raised my brow. “What is?” I asked.“The whole thing.” He said again.“Ugh?” I prompted, now feeling uneasy at the way he was breaking the words, mounting my fears.“When I visited Valentino the other day, I….”He started to shake his head as if trying to remember.“I overheard him and the doctor talking. About his blood pressure.” He said but I still couldn’t understand where he was heading to.“Isn’t it normal for a doctor to discuss the patient’s condition with him?” I asked with a slight chuckle, as I tried to cover my fears with a feigned smile.“Yeah. I think he told him to disclose it to your guys intentionally to….”“To get Ros

    VALERIO “Fuck!” I muttered under my breath as I turned to see my brother staring at me and Rose as if he couldn’t comprehend what was right in front of him.Vicente closed the door as quickly as he opened it and walked away.“He looks pissed.” I turned to Rose who had her hand stuck in her head as if thinking of what to do, but was obviously stuck.“I’ll go talk to him.” I said and licked my lips in exasperation and stood up, watched as she crouched up her legs and folded her arms around him, her gaze away from mine.“Hey.” I started to move close to her but she moves slightly away from me as if she was tasked to stay away.“Go to Vicente.” She looked up to me quickly.“He would get things wrong.” She said with a worried expression.I sighed and nodded then moved away from the bed. “Tell him what?” I asked, my voice starting to sound irritated as she raised up her head to look at me in disbelief.“Anything!” She retorted angrily. “What if he goes blabbering to Valentino about this?”

    VALERIO I moved closer and deepened the kiss, as if scared that she might change her mind at the last minute. I didn’t need any more confirmation from her as she held my head to her.Closely, as if I might withdraw.As we deepened the kiss as the minute passes, flashes of her rejecting me after all of this ends starts to come to my mind but I blocked out those thoughts as I led her instinctively to the bed.As we kissed, I placed her hastily on the bed, our panting breath, the only thing that filled my head as the urgency of the situation seized me.“Valerio.” She pushed me back as I stared at her flushed face, and maybe a hint of guilt starting to show.“This is the last time.” The words came out of her mouth and I didn’t even know how to react to it.She was looking at my lips like a snack that she has always wanted and has now gotten the chance.“Last time?” I asked, my voice choked with emotion as she causally shifted her gaze to my eyes.“I chose Valentino.” She said as if even

    ROSE“Thank you, doctor.” I managed to say despite the huge lump of pain I was feeling in my chest at that point. But Valerio stood up abruptly and walked out of the room without saying a word as I shifted my gaze to gus retreating figure, watched as he banged the door following his exiting.“I’m sorry about that.” I turned to apologize to the doctor who just managed a tight smile. Obviously, that didn’t settle well with him. And Valerio obviously wasn’t feeling what he said. I stood up and walked away, dragging my feet down the hallway.“Follow him or him….”Arya asked through the mind linked in my head.I knew who she was referring to as him or him.I didn’t reply that, just made my way out of the hospital, and if I was mistaken, I saw Valerio’s car pass in front of me, speeding up without a care in the world.I clenched my fist and swallowed, as I tried not to stagger due to how weak I suddenly became.This is extremely tiresome.
