"Ahhhh!" Isabella took a deep breath after running the stairs for the nth time that morning. Tiana had made her visit the doctor who had told them it was alright for her to do some exercises and running the stairs had been the one that sadistic Tiana has picked from them, claiming it was most useful for the company as she would be needing to run errands for her boss."Miss Thurnwald, you aren't keeping up to time" Tiana's voice jolted her from her thoughts. She saw the witch at the top of the stairs with her alarm clock on her right hand. "Miss Accardi, shouldn't I rest now? It's dangerous for the baby if you keep pushing me" Isabella threatened. Her whole life depends on the baby she was carrying and she couldn't allow Tiana make her lose it by mistake even.However, Tiana only gave her a creepy smile "Don't worry Miss Thurnwald, I wouldn't want to be the reason for the cutie not be born and thus, I've hired a doctor for you. She'll be available in the company at all times and thus,
"Oh please, I almost couldn't control myself not to laugh out when I heard your words. You shouldn't have added that she looked like a lonely woman looking for a man to spend the night with. You should have seen her face then" Elina continued laughing, she laughed so hard that tears were already at the rim of her eyes, threatening to spill at any moment."She called me stupid first!" Talisa interjected, trying to prove her innocence but Elina only ignored her. "Shall we talk about how you mentioned the cooks and sailors instead of Matt and Regan? I believe it's better she starts avoiding you from now on for the sake of her mental health. I don't really blame her for trying to intimidate you though. I mean, you are the reason her crush wouldn't even look at her. Anybody would feel threatened by you" "I know, right. Now that you've mentioned it, I'm planning to use the collaboration between FW and PHANTOM to amend the relationship between Regan and I" She decided she didn't want a rea
The drive was silent until Elina called his attention and told him she was going to get off at her destination. He pulled over for her and she immediately alighted while waving goodbye at Talisa. "See you soon" Talisa returned the gesture then watched Elina until she couldn't see her anymore. Now it was she and Regan alone and the air became more suffocating than earlier. He didn't ask for her address and she didn't bother telling him because she was sure he knew it. If he didn't then he wasn't Regan but someone else. "We are here" His voice broke her train of thought and she looked out to see the familiar silver gate. Her house. "Thank you" She appreciated before getting off from the car. She wasn't even able to turn back to look at him before the car drove off. She sighed in frustration before walking towards the gate. She pressed the bell and it was like déjà vu when the gate slowly opened, revealing the surprised face of the securities. They hadn't been expecting the Madam to
Talisa and Tiana had met when Talisa went to Paris for her break. It had actually been a six months break but after meeting Tiana, she had to extend it to one year. She had taken the break because she had been depressed after what had happened with Regan.It was one faithful afternoon, she was sitting at her favourite spot in a dessert shop she had found when she arrived. She hadn't actually found it, Adalyn had told her about this particular dessert shop which they had loved eating it's chocolate waffles since young and she had came to look for it the moment she arrived. It had been her habit to come there everyday and such was that day. She was watching a TV show on her cellphone and having an ice cream when she heard a man scream. Not a woman but a man and that had gotten her attention as she wondered what had went wrong. Normally,she would have mind her business but curiousity got the better of her.The moment she turned, she saw a beautiful young lady pinning down a man twice h
"I don't know what else to do to make you believe I'm not faking anything" he had replied her, sounding helpless.But of course, Tiana didn't buy his excuse. She only pitied Talisa for believing the excuse of a living thing (Steve), even though Talisa was usually smart in everything else, she was gullible when it comes to people and they was why she had taken it upon herself to protect her. "Boss, don't worry. I'll allow no harm come to you" Back to the present: Tiana excitedly took a sit beside Talisa and began her story. ".....I tormented her until she could no longer walk. Anyway, she's now in the hospital taking the much needed rest" Tiana summarised what she had been up to the past few days. Talisa only sighed, already knowing how Tiana was. She always does things just the way she had been brought up. Brutally. Of course, a person brought up in a Mafia family would be different from others. Though, she was still soft compared to what others would normally do."Her baby?" Sh
Nine year old Talisa was sitting, looking out from the window of her classroom. She watched as the other kids were playing around but she wasn't in the mood to play as she was still grieving the loss of her dead dog. She still couldn't believe her little Mousy was gone. "Liz!" She heard someone call which jolted her from her thoughts, it was Adalyn who was waving a box of chocolates at her. Adalyn didn't waste time in entering into the class and taking her sit in front of Talisa. "Daddy bought it for me when he returned from Paris last night. I'm sure you'll love it" Adalyn opened the box and Talisa could see the different chocolate types in it. Even though it looked appetising, she didn't feel like eating it. Adalyn seemed to have noticed her hesitation "Liz, Little Mousy wouldn't be happy to see you not eating this delicious chocolate. You don't have to be sad about its death, after all, it went to a better place" She tried cheering her friend up and it worked. "Really? Little
"What are those boys doing?" Adalyn asked from behind, trying to climb up to the window in order to see what was going on outside. Talisa only ignored her as she focused solely on her object of attraction. It was few days to she and Adalyn's Twelfth birthday and the boys had told them they had a surprise for both of them. She was already excited at the thought of them giving her a surprise birthday present. Though, their previous birthdays had always been special with them but she had the feeling this one wouldn't be one she'll forget in a while. She and Adalyn were born on the same day and in the same hospital which made their Moms develop a friendly relationship. The women had been excited to see someone else give birth at the same time as they did and they had decided to be friends and even raised their kids together. So Talisa and Adalyn were more like Sisters than Best friends because of the way they were raised. The boys were all shirtless in the garden, watering the various
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, our dearest little troublemakers. Happy birthday to you!" Talisa and Adalyn woke up to the loud cheers of their families. Both girls had slept together the night before, which had made it easier for the family to enter the room and sang for them. They were at first confused at what was going on because they were still sleepy."Uhn?" Talisa literally had an invisible question mark over her head because everything became clear to her. Her parents, siblings, Adalyn's parents, the boys...she was quick to notice Regan wasn't present which made her brows knit in a frown. Why wasn't he present? Her eyes moved to the household servants who were all standing in front of her with an huge cake and she slightly panicked but it left as quick as it came because she shook Adalyn next. The girl was a sleepyhead and might not even wake up even if the world was ending. But somehow, shaking Adalyn made her awake and she immediately crawled off her bed
