"Good morning sir." He started off with a bow. "The first reporter to write this was David Armstrong from The New York Times. But they refused to tell me who gave them the information."

    A thunderous frown appeared on Jade's face as he pulled Sapphire away from Ace."What are you doing to Sapphire?" Jade started."What do you mean by that? We're friends." Ace explained."Don't be like that. This is a misunderstanding." Sapphire interfered, trying to stop Jade from causing any argument. "I mean... You don't even know him. Well, he's one of Gabby's spon-sors." She stammered as she explained."Gabby's spon-sors?" Jade looked at him with so much anger burning through but he tried not to show it."Hey, naughty Ace! Since when have you ever sponsored idol singers?" Curiosity laced Jade's eyes as he asked.With this, Sapphire turned to him, surprised."Ace? You mean he's your cousin, the Ace you mentioned to me the other day? So are you Mr. Ace, sir?" She asked with a distrusting look."Yes but..." Ace tried to explain but Sapphire cut into his words, abruptly."Is that why you never gave me your business

    * * *The sky was freezing with the icy moon that went blurry into the clouds. The pale crescent moon shone like a silvery claw in the night sky. It was already 10:00 p.m. Jade and Sapphire took a seat outside as they stepped out of the warm building. Sitting outside, side by side. The couple watched the moving moon as if it was a boat standing in a ocean of dark shades."Why is your grandfather doing this?" Sapphire broke the silence that had reigned between them for a couple of minutes."What?" Jade replied before turning to her."I mean, why is he doing this to me? Why me of all people?" She pressed. "I wouldn't have been so rudely used by you and Ace if not for his will."Jade gently pinched her cheek which made Sapphire blushed a little."I never used you." We signed a perfectly valid contract."What?" Sapphire scoffed. "Don't fool yourself! Who was t

Watching the cat and rat fight between them was unbelievable."I can't believe my eyes. He's going after her like, for real?" It looked as if Miss Barbara wished she was the one in her position."Me too. I feel like we've been really busy as of late."

    "Allow me to apologize once more. And if I were to offer any excuses at all, it'd be that... I was curious.""You were curious?" Sapphire frowned at his reason while Jade was waiting at a distance."I don't want you admit this, but... Jade feels like an un-breachable wall sometimes. I was curious about the kind of woman he was dating, you see.""Sapphire let out a soft breath of relief.Yes, that understandable. But you know, he may seem like a wall, but he's not un-breachable. He's just stubborn." She explained."Pardon?""What I'm trying to say is... Jade is not as bad as you think. Within his stubbornness is a dives meekness. And... he's not a perfect person, either." She explained. " But anyway, you're acknowledging that you did something wrong, right?""Of course, it was a huge mistake on my part. And I'm sincerely sorry." There was earnesty in his voice.

    "I knew something was weird about the fact that Jade was dating a woman like you." Chloe continued. "I should've known it had something to do with money." Sapphire walked closer to her, tired of the annoying words she was spitting out. "Isn't it immature to cling to someone just because of some will?" Chloe asked with a pitiable expression. Sapphire smiled at her for that. "I know, right? Jade is clinging to me because of something so inconsequential." "This is why people like us should not mingle with poor folk. I bet your life has changed for the better since you've started dating." Chloe coiled a stand of her hair with her index finger and heaved heavily on her breath. "Put an end to the contract already. And I'll pay you for it. Cut ties between you and Jade, my dear... I'll give you all the money you'll ever need. So, take the hint and disappear now, sweetheart." Chloe spoke as i

Don’t they look like cotton candy?”“I love the way you think.” Jade laughed.Sapphire sighed, stretching her arms above her head and then placed them behind her back on the soft mossy ground. With this, she leaned on her elbows, and then, eventually, lied down completely. Later on, Sapphire folded her hands behind her head and watch the last of the sun’s rays disappear below the horizon.
