"Jade! what are you even saying? Are you alright?" Sapphire looked startled at him.
She never imagined that Jade would ever raise his voice at her. Although, Sapphire felt a stab in her heart. She tried to console him but he moved away.
"Just leave me alone, Fire! I'm so disappointed in you right now. I'm just speechless. You know what? I can do better without you so fuck off!" Jade rolled his enraged eyes at her, as tears escaped from the corners of his eyes. He wiped it off immediately and sniffled away with his face turning red out of burning anger.
"Jade!" She called after him but he rushed out of her apartment and walked downstairs. Sapphire, in her pink night gown ran after him but he got into his car and zoomed off, disappointedly without even turning back at her.
"Jade! Where are you going?" Sapphire called and she ran out to catch up with him but she couldn't meet up.
It was too late.... She00:12 a.mSapphire had cried herself to bed when she heard a sharp knock on the door. She woke up immediately but what she saw was just unbelievable.Lucas holding Jade to stand upright. With stains of alcohol, puke and blood on his white shirt. As if she was dreaming, a line of shiver ran down her spine. Sapphire felt like floating in an ocean of water, seeing Jade in that state."Oh my!..." She went dumfounded. "What happened to him?"Sapphire allowed Lucas to held him in while she closed the door behind them. Her lips shivered in total shock as she watched him from the distance. She couldn't help but her eyes caught hot tears, streaming down his sad eyes that were half opened."F...fire." He muttered and dropped to the ground, unconsciously"He got drunk and almost killed a stripper." Lucas explained before he placed Jade on the bed but he fell
***Chloe paid Lucas a visit in his office. It was clear that her visit was unexpected but Lucas welcomed her in, anyway."What brings you here?" He asked immediately she took her seat."I was curious about how Jade really feels. And also, I know you two are close friends." She muttered, lovingly in her cute voice.Lucas then took a seat facing her as they discussed further."Jade is an amazingly, skilled businessman." Chloe started. "And yet, he's ignoring me and the business offer that comes with me. It makes no sense."With this, Lucas blushed a little as his lips settled in a serious look at her."In case you don't know, Jade get tons of offers like yours.""But still, not that woman. I mean Saph or whatever name she's tagged with." She rolled her eyes at the thought. "I'm sure the Jade I know wouldn't have even glanced at her if not f
***The room as dark as sullen clouds before the sun. Huge and well furnished. Sapphire's blurry vision cleared up a little but she gently held her head that was aching like hell. A soft groan escaped through her dried lips. She couldn't help but to wonder, where on Earth she was. The master-sized bed she laid on was bigger than the one she is used to.Sapphire gently pulled her twinging body up and checked through the windows. The sky was beginning to brighten with daylight as it was just dawn. She pepped through the transparent glasses that wasn't clear enough but it looked as if she was in a mansion or something. Sapphire went back to the bed, noticing she's in her unknown place without her phone or hand bag. She rushed to the door immediately and pulled it as gently as possible not to attract other's attention. The door slides open as she passed through, walking out of the room—tiptoeing. Sapphire find her way and decided to esca
***Jade walked out of the police station when a call came in."Hello dear." He placed his phone behind his ear for easy hearing."Haven't you seen her yet? I couldn't sleep all night because of this. Her parents called me... They're freaking worried." Confusion laced Zoey's face as she spoke."Oh my gosh!" Jade hissed out in a grim. "I just reported the case to the police. I hope they find any trace soon because she felt her phone behind. Or... do you have any idea where she might be?!"I have no fucking Idea, Jade. Sapphire is kind and gentle. She don't keep secrets and she lived a very fulfilled and satisfied life before she met you! I'm a big fan of your romance story but I'm going to end it if I find out you're really behind this! Sapphire is her parents only child, Jade! If they find out about this what do you expect me to say to them?!"Jade's mind went blank for a
***The water was colder like Ice. Sapphire sat inside the bathtub and cried as if the water was peeling off her skin. She shivered in tears, crying in the loneliness for staying away from home without knowing if she would be able to make it out alive or not.Before the kidnap, Sapphire had planned to meet Jade and tell him her true feelings about him so far. That she thought about him and their moments together but right now, she even miss him more.'Why does it have to be me?' Sapphire thought as she cried aloud in her mind.Her hands fetched an amount of water as she scrubbed it through over her coal-lined mascara she'd put on her face the day before. Although, it was the first time in forever she'd used that beauty products, it's such a shame that Jade couldn't even see her in it. The thought of Jade poured through her mind like a magical pixie dust— She was addicted to.After a
***Jade went into his office, ignoring the weird stares. Pissed like hell but trying to conceal it. Her took off his black jacket and placed it on a hanger, somewhere in the corner of his office. He threw himself on his executive chair, already feeling useless.A small frown appeared on his handsomely -shaped face. Jade went through the file placed on his desk as he unbuttoned the first three buttons on his white sleeved shirt.Mr Tim looked at his co-workers with a fake smile on his face. "Come on guys, concentrated on your work. I'll go and check on him now." He announced before walking to the CEO's office.Tick-tick.Mr. Tim tapped his index finger on the mirrored door as he narrowed his head into Jade's office."What's it?" Jade muttered without even looking at Mr. Tim's direction. "Come in." He ordered."Umm... What's happening, boss? Are
"Whatever..." Jade replied her blankly and walked to the parking lot where his car was parked."Wait up for me!" She called upon him as she rushed to the other side of his car."Come on, Jade. You're so boring. I just want to spend sometime with you and you're acting so weird?""Just get in!" Jade rolled his eyes at her.They took their seats swiftly while Jade fixed his seatbelt. Chloe turned to him, rolling her eyes too."Don't you think it's enough playing this hate game? I mean, let's chat like real friends." She begged."Don't you have anything else to do?" Jade knotted an eyebrow, casting a brief look at her."When I'm not a workaholic like you." She smiled, but her smile dropped almost immediately. "Taking a day off to strengthen out friendship isn't bad. Is it? Perhaps, I could help you find your girlfriend.""Whatever..." Jade hissed under his breath as he turned on his car engine and zoomed off into the busy roa
❁❀❁❀❁❀❁❀❁❀❁❀❁The room was silent dark as shame. Only a line of the sun's ray touched through the window of the room. Sapphire opened her eyes. As blue as the dept of the sea, deep and pondering. She looked around and all she could see was series of her photograph, placed on the wall. Even her childhood pictures were there. Sapphire's eyes widened in astonishment as her breath thickened. Her throat suddenly went dump... It felt as if she could feel her heart hanging in between her troat."What's this... where am I?" She tried to speak but her voice came out in a soft, hoarsely whisper.A sharp pain hit her hard on the hard, making her hold her forehead. She clinged to it, trying to remember what happened last.The memory of how she tried to escape flashed through her mind. And it was Ace that stopped her. She remembered the his darkness that clouded his eyes in the shadows of the nig
***Later that day, Jade came to pick her up."Aren't you selling these?" Jade started."No, but would you buy it for me?" She asked."Isn't that cheating?""You'd be making a donation so you're doing a good deed." Sapphire cheered up."She sold it for him. Alright then, can we leave?""Of course." Zoey's mum replied. "You've done a lot today.""Bye ma'am.""Good bye." The couple waved them. Jade placed his arm around her waist with they walked side by side.Is that really his wife? Some women gossiped. She's so old fashioned, like seriously? She didn't even wear makeup. How local?"Director! Have you seen the article?" Mr. Tim rushed to Jade."What's it now? Did they say I had an affair with someone?""No, it's not that, sir. It's about the young Madam."
Antigua And Barbuda Island3 Days After WeddingThe newly wedded couple gazed at the sunset for a minute. Sapphire stared at the rosy clouds and commented, “It looks like I can just pluck the clouds out of the sky and eat them. 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. The first stars begin to peek out from the black curtain sweeping above out heads and the light of the full moon. There aren’t any crater or bruises — just a polished sphere of white looking down at the both of them.
Sapphire was in taking her students dancing classes with one of Jade's recent songs when Jade walked in. He watched her with excitement for a while until she stopped and dismissed her students. She gave them a hug as usually. Jade walked in and took a chair from the corner of the room. "Oh, Jade!" Sapphire shrieked, by his presence.He sat down and watched her earnestly. "The media would be reporting about us, soon. Would you be alright?""I'm glad the school would be on vacation next week. Hope they won't harass my students?""I don't know but... How about
The early risers chirping to the morning sun beams peeking through the clouds. Colourful birds performing their morning rituals made the gentle, cool breeze blow through the white curtains. The light of dawn seeped into the beautiful mansion. With brightness covering the natural and man-made creations, the first rays of sun beamed through the window.A smile stretched on sapphire's lips as she gently opened her eyes. Looking around, she remembered what happened last night and smiled even brighter. Stretching like a lazy cat, she noticed Jade wasn't beside her. Her eyes turned to the other corner of the room as she pulled out of bed, sitting upright."...Yes, I won't be coming to the hotel for a while. If there's anything important, forward it to my email address." Sapphire heard Jade's voice from the bathroom."Hello wifey." He walked up to her cupping her face into his palms. Then he gently placed peck on her cheek that m

It was a funny magician that brought smiles to people's faces despite his old age. His performance was simply magnificent. The audience loved him.Next were a set of twins. Maria and Mario with their explicit dancing skills. They did a salsa, ballet and hip-hop mixed dance and the crowd cheered their names.M&M! M&M!! Ruby was the next participant.

The Following Day...2:00 p.mSapphire walked out if her class while everyone had gone home. Climbing downstairs she raised her gaze at Jade whom was awaiting with his while jeep, as usual. He noticed the surprised look on her face and moved closer. Sapphire felt like evaporating into the thin air, she couldn't believe her eyes."What are you so surprised about, wifey? You're making me feel bad."Sapphire wore a stern look at him and walked down to where he was. Don't shout okay, were not even married yet and... I didn't know that I'd run into you here." She explained, avoiding his gaze. Turning away, Jade held her wrist and pulled her towards him. His hands wrapped around her waist."And what does that mean? You didn't give me a good reply last night so I came to pick you up."Sapphires pushed him away as he let go.
Meanwhile, Lucas visited Zoey's boutique to tell her what had to."I tried my best to convince him, Zoey. I think Jade's made up his mind.""Jeez! That idiot!""Me?""No, I'm referring to your friend. He's so proud and arrogant. I wonder why I'm going this far just to bring them together. I guess that's why he makes so much money, huh? Because he's stupidly stubborn." Zoey vexed."Jade also feel down sometimes but I think he's ready to leave the past behind." Lucas explained."Does he really not have any feelings for her, then? I guess he didn't love Sapphire as much as I thought he did. Anyway, thanks for everything. I guess I misunderstood but... Since she can meet someone better with no regrets, I think there's nothing to worry about."So, I've tried all my best. Jade has his ways, you know.""Yeah, yeah. I know. I also know that he's n
***After lunch, Rome drove back to Zoey's boutique. He asked Sapphire to pick any 2 clothes of her favorite designer.Happy and ready for shopping, Sapphire checked out the clothes, line by line. Row by row."You can pick 2 more! Zoey uttered. Consider it a gift from me to commemorate you overcoming your heartbreak." Zoey added."Wow! Wait, since you're buying things for me, I'll... Pick this one!" She jerked over a pink sequine gown that had while tons on its chest for designs."Like seriously, do you know how much that gown costs? Don't let me shout at you! " Zoey blurted."I broke up with a guy and now I'm in tons of pain. I'm so miserable..." Sapphire pretended, acting as if she was actually crying.Watching her, Rome and Zoey burst into laughter."Wow! You're never this sly before!""So would you buy this gown for me
At the bar with Lucas.11:46 p.mJade and Lucas were seated in their usual spot. The bar man offered him a cup of champagne. He gulped it down his throat at once.Hey, don't even think about getting drunk, okay?" Lucas warned."I'm not." He poured another drink into a wine cup. "I'm not drunk but I'd like to get drunk."Lucas watched how he gulped it down his throat again. He looked so sad and messy."Don't overthink, Jade. Time heals all wounds." Lucas advised. "I'm sure you'll forget about everything with time. He pay him at the back.""About what you just said..." Jade poured another drink. "Don't believe that drivel. It's a lie" He started at the glassy cup and poured the third cup down his throat. He closed his eyes to the thought of it and gulped it down in pain.Jade drove home, collapsing on the sofa chair in
