||" Damien Troy "||I didn't know what to expect when I decided to go to Kristen's home. My anxiety rose even more when I arrived at the house.It was a beautiful complex building, with a beautiful garden that had only flowers. It smelled homely. It felt at home like I was home.Now that was a feeling I haven't felt in a while."Let's go inside sir," Sky said after she stepped out of the car."This is where Kristen lives with her mother?" I asked,"Yes, sir." Sky replied, "Is there a problem?"I shook my head, "There is no problem at all, but just curious, do they deal in flowers, why are there so many flowers in the garden?"Sky peered her eyes towards the garden and then smiled fondly. "Kristen has loved flowers since she was a child, so she plants them for pleasure and also for learning. She also experiments with them in her free time." She explained,I nodded in understanding,"I didn't know Kristen was that type of woman, I'm both surprised and impressed," Vitali added,I nodded
||" Kristen Stewart '||I rolled my eyes when Damien shrugged, it was the audacity he had for me, first of all, he comes to my house unannounced and now he is throwing words to provoke me.Tell me that isn't like the joke of the century.But I won't give him the satisfaction he wants, I will ignore him as I should…I glanced back at Vitali, "If you like it that much, I could sneak more from the fridge. My apologies though, it never occurred to me that other people will have similar tastes to my mum and me.""That will be very nice of you, Kristen. I knew you were the right choice for the job from the moment you stepped through the door of my office," He flattered, "I chuckled and smiled gratefully,"Thank you for giving me a chance then, Mr Vitali, honestly if you didn't give me that chance, I would have concluded that I was out of luck," I said,Damien scoffed,Vitali looked at him and then looked at me and grinned, "You are very talented, Kristen and also very…" He glanced at Damien
||" Damien Troy "||"Damien," I mumbled, "Would you please join us for a meal? Mother is a great cook, I'm sure you will like it."Her voice even though it sounded so reluctant sent shivers through my spine and I could not help the radiant smile that coursed through my body up to my face. I bent towards her until I was face to face with her, "Okay!" I muttered,I watched her nodding her head as she turned away from me and gestured her hands towards what I presumed is the way that leads to the dining, but I wasn't having that, not when I felt something flipping in the pit of my stomach. A very weird feeling."After you, Kristen, you should lead the way," I muttered,I shrugged when I noticed her glare on my face, well that was about it, she scoffed and started towards the dining and everyone else followed after her.We got to the dining table and I was surprised by the amount of food that was displayed on the dining table. There were varieties of dishes. They were meals that would take
||" Kristen Stewart "||"Damien, wait!!!" I blurted out, but Damien didn't wait, I have never seen him like that before, I have seen him angry, furious, feral and hell even horny but seeing like this was completely new to me.He looked broken.I wanted to chase after him but Vitali held me back, I looked at him surprised, "Why are you holding me back Vitali?""I think it's best if you let him be alone for now, the topic of his mother is a sensitive topic, a very sensitive topic, we never talk about it, like ever," He said, "When I got employed newly into the company by his father, I had on one occasion asked him about his wife, because I was just wondering why his spouse never visited him, I almost got fired that day, luckily for me, he loved my work, so he didn't just want to lose me,""I'm sorry, I didn't know it was like that, wouldn't have said anything if I knew," My mother spoke up, I could eyes looking glassy, I knew she was tearing u because just like Damien, she too had a sen
||" Damien Troy "||I arrived at my father's mansion after I left Kristen's place. Fear pricked my heart as I made my way through the hallways into my father's study.I knew what was waiting for me immediately after I set foot into that study, I knew it was unhealthy, but that was literally the least of my concern, all I wanted right now was that pain I hated so much.Sometimes words scar more than action, and sometimes action scar more than words but in my case, words scar more than actions. My mother's actions scared me but my father's prickly words scared me more and made me forget about my mother's scar.It was an unhealthy way of coping, I knew. My therapist drums it in my ear every time. I almost fired the last therapist when she made mention of this again, but I didn't want to, I just couldn't, she had been the fifth one just that month and she happened to be the most understanding of all of them, so I kept her.I knocked on my father's door, even though I knew he wasn't going
||" Kristen Stewart "||This night had to be the most restless night I have had this year, if not ever. I just tossed and turned in bed, sleep seemed to travel far away from me.I glanced at Sky who was deep asleep, not even wavering even after I kept tossing. She was a deep sleeper.I tried to call Damien but he didn't pick up any of my calls, nor did he reply to any of my messages. Vitali said he had dropped him off at his father's house.I couldn't help but wonder why he went back to his father's house, I could tell he wasn't really a fan of his father, so I was surprised when he went back there instead of going to his place or his friends.Something seemed off, I couldn't help but think about the sickling feeling that kept erupting in my stomach.I picked up my phone, it was one-thirty-five in the morning, and I have less than five hours before dawn, hmmm…I hummed as I scrambled off the bed, maybe a glass of drink won't be such a bad idea right now. I thought as I made my way to t
||" Damien Troy "||"You are taking Kristen to Russia? Why? I thought you weren't serious with her?" Jameson asked watching my face suspiciously,Jameson was my childhood friend or best friend, and also Alexis' boyfriend. Growing up I have come to gain many friends but no one comes close to my bond and friendship with Jameson.He knew everything about me just like I knew about him too."It's not what you think Jamie, it's more like I am trying to put her where she belongs, and sincerely it was a kind of last-minute decision," I said,"What do you mean last minute?" He asked,"Well, I hadn't really thought out that plan well…well until I met Alexis, then everything had just clicked in place," I started, "Did I tell you, Kristen has to be the most confusing of all the women I have been with, she is so much alike with Lucia but at the same time very different,""What do you mean?""I can't say exactly Jamie, I am still learning about her, but I know there is something there definitely, I
||" Kristen Stewart "||What do you do when your boss suddenly drops a bomb on you about going on a trip to Russia randomly?The answer is simple, you sleep.Sleep was so precious, the one place where you forget everything, where even your most insistent worries cannot touch you. It was good to finally sleep peacefully, without trying very hard to fall asleep.Sleeping… is what I have been doing for the past six hours and even though right now, I knew I had to be awake, but I was still feeling too stupefied to get out of bed.In fact, I didn't want to get out of bed at all, ever since Sky dropped me off, and made me promise her that I was going to take a good rest, which that promise wasn't even needed because, even, I knew that I was going to rest. So I just promised her that she would let me go.I needed the space too if I was going to rest, thankfully my mother wasn't home when I got back, else she would have seen how exhausted I looked when I came back.And now, it's been six hour
