Alessia’s Point Of View:

“You’re new here so you’re supposed to do what everyone says you to do.” The demanding voice of Amelia, who’s the property manager of the company again filled my ears.

I didn’t bothered myself to reply and instead went back to my chair, facing my desk with a pile of papers.

Madame Clayton give me this papers earlier, she demonstrated what to do and how to do it and when will the deadline of each papers and after that, she left me, not ensuring me if I really get what she said.

I wiped the sweat on my forehead and neck and took a handful of my hair and tied it using the scrunchie that my father gave before giving my whole attention on the papers, clearly ignoring Amelia’s presence.

“I’m talking to you!” She hissed in annoyance and pushed my slightly bowed forehead using her fingers to force me to look at her.

Irritated with what she did, I slapped her hand making her winced with pain.

I raised my gaze to her and narrowed my eyes. I lowered my brows, showing her my tight-slipped smile.

“Can’t you see I’m working?” Pressing my lips together, I rapsed. “Why don’t you do that on your own?” I added, really pissed off of what she has been doing to me these passed hours.

Amelia did nothing but to make my first day a hell.

She requested me to print all her papers. I was willing to do it with a light heart but then, seeing her smirk and telling me that the printers on the third floor is the whose available, I nearly slapped the bunch of papers to her face.

I was beyond mad carrying the two piles of papers that I printed when some of my office mates said that the printers aren't really broken. It’s Amelia who just made it up to make me go down on the third floor.

Pissed and irritated, I managed to put the papers on the top of her desk and was about to excuse myself when again, she demanded me with a new request.

Compiling and arranging all the title of the papers from A-Z!

I would not supposed to do it but still forced myself because I’m still new here and I want to make a good impression to everyone, but I swear, this bitch is making me have a bad impression about this whole damn company.

I got to finished her works on time yet she still have one last command!

After with exchanges of words, I was forced to go down floor to buy her a meal, for pete’s sake.

I was supposed to be fine with it since I’m considering that she may be just exhausted today but can’t able to hide my anger anymore when I realized that the restaurant she’s talking about is a series of building away from the company.

I want to take a cab but I don’t have money for that. I didn’t put any budget to that.

Walking in a cold weather, I successfully bought her meals.

At this point, I can’t handle my anger anymore. I just want to pull her hair out of this building.

“Huh!” She scoffed in a sarcastic way. “Do you really think that I’m buying that? Only if I know, you seduced sir Yadiel just so you can ride in his car. You poor bitch!” She fumed with a nasal voice.

She really did those things to me just because I’m with Yadiel inside his car? Alone? What the fucking hell is she thinking?

If she’s jealous, I have nothing to do with it because she’s not even Yadiel’s girlfriend. In fact, he even barely know that she existed so why is this girl flipping one’s lid at me?

“What did you call me?” I gritted my teeth and my brows made a line as I glared at her.

My blood instantly boiled when I saw her lopsided smile and just before I can lift my hand to slap Amelia, a woman who I think was just came passing by pulled Amelia’s hair with so much intensity.

She shouted in pain as she tries to push the woman away. The woman gave her a mischievous smirk, watching her suffer in pain and pulled Amelia’s hair as if she’s just pulling a sack with a pile of pebbles.

They were now both down on their knees as the woman keeps pulling her hair to the floor, showing no mercy and not even a hint of remorse.

The woman’s jaw locked when Amelia burried her long nails on the back of its palm causing her to release some strands of Amelia’s hair.

Not before the woman noticed, Amelia then pulled her hair as the woman pulls her hair.

The necklace of Amelia who I think is luxurious that was made by pearls and crystals divided into pieces just before the woman pulled it. The jewels immediately scattered through the wide hallway and rolls themselves in different directions.

That’s when I realized that I was just watching them fight in front of me as if it’s a normal thing.

Panicky and a bit nervous, I ran my way to them and forced them to let go of each other.

Chest doing aggressive ups and down, catching their own breaths and fists were clenched, they narrowed their eyes to each other while gritting their teeth.

“How dare you!” The voice of Amelia thundered the quiet hallway and pointed her fingers at the woman causing me to see her now broken nails.

Her hair is a mess and her make-up smudged her face. Even the fake eyelash on her left eye suddenly disappeared.

“How dare you, too!” The woman shouted back and was about to pull Amelia’s hair again but immediately stopped when I blocked my arms against her body. “Fucking bitch,” she spat instead.

It’s again the time when Amelia’s blood boils and was about to slap her when I hurriedly stomps my feet towards her back and pulled her hair instead. I crumpled her hair inside my fist like a tight ball and dumped her to the floor.

She lost her balance and nearly fell, good thing her hands were fast to hold on my desk for support.

The woman gasped in shock and parted her lips in amusement. I was also shock with the fact that I did that out of my consciousness causing me to stop midway.

Amelia did nothing but to held her chest because of the raging breathings before looking at us with her sharp glare.

“Fuck you, newbies!” She cursed, her veins were throbbing in her neck as she squinted her eyes on us.

With a heavy heart, she turned her back stomps her feet all the way through the long hallway while fixing her hair with so much annoyance.

Unconsciously my eyes went from Amelia’s back and stopped at the woman. We both stared at each other seeing no emotions as our head synchronized and glanced back at Amelia before looking again at each other.

As if, we read each other’s mind, we both let out a long and contagious laughs as we both hit each other’s shoulders out of disbelief.

    07Alessia’s Point Of View:“Are you for real?” I spat in so much disbelief as I left my hand on the air, still holding the fries that I dipped on the ketchup. I blinked my eyes several times as I covered my slightly parted lips using my free hand before finally got to glance at Sandra. She’s the woman who saved me earlier from slapping Amelia. We kind off clicked each other the moment we start talking. Her skin is pale as a bond paper and her hair is long enough to make and donate it as a wig. She has a pure black eye color that superiors her jaw dropping beauty, who can literally make every guy glance at her from time to time. “I am very well sure!” Confidence was all over her voice. She took a big bite on the hamburger before continuing to tell an ear captivating story. It all started on the history on why Yadiel was very elusive on interacting with women. She gave me three reasons that she just heard around the office. First is that Yadiel just don’t want to distract himsel

What can I do for you?” Trying my best to be formal as I could, I greeted him with a fake smile.I stopped walking when Yadiel also stopped in front of the lines of papers placed on the cabinets and shelves. Earlier, when he heard what I said made me overthink my job. Different scenarios were came flashing back my mind. I really thought that he would fire me or worst put me in jail. I was thinking that what if he’ll kick me out of the company on my first day, that would be humiliating. Tons of what if’s literally popped out from my mind. What if I’ll lose this job just because of my blunt mouth? How can I provide the needs of my family? How can I buy Naomi her medicines? How can I help my sister finish her studies? That would be so fucked up. I don’t know what my life would be without money. I bit my lower lip when he stopped trailing his fingers on the back bone of the folders just to glance at me. He scanned me from head to fo

As if we’re doing something illegal.The box of the cake that he was holding slipped on his hand the moment he cursed and saw the scenery before entering the office. The man unconsciously widened his eyes as he averted it to Yadiel’s direction with pure amusement and disbelief written on his face. I simply took a glance on Yadiel who suddenly turned silent and shut his mouth up right after the man’s presence existed in the office.Yadiel diverted his eyes to avoid the man’s eyes but immediately covered his face with his hands when he felt the heat slowly creeping out from his cheeks. My forehead furrowed out of confusion and crinkled my nose with curiosity as I watched them both, clearly sending messages through their minds. My eyes accidentally flew on the unfamiliar figure causing us to stare with each other in a whole second. I don’t know what should I feel esp

    10Alessia’s Point Of View:“Aren’t you going to eat?” I furrowed my brows and raised my gaze to him, mouth is full of slices of cake.I chewed and munched the cake slices as if I’m a baby that has been born earlier. I think I’ve been eating this way in more than twenty minutes. I will take a slice of cake, put it on my saucer and then put it inside my mouth in a whole piece. I don’t know how did it fit my mouth, but I would always make sure that no piece will leave any trace nor scratch of the cake. “Can you please eat with etiquette?” He grunted with annoyance written all over his face before groaning, clearly not used to seeing someone eating like this. I stopped midway because of that and took a short glance of him before mocking him like a child. “Whatever,” rolling my eyes, I said. Instead of annoying him again, I sliced a small size of cake on my saucer with my fork before putting it in my mouth. Wincing with how much he exaggerates my moves. What can I do? I can’t deny

    11Alessia’s Point Of View:Just before Yadiel could even park his car properly, I immediately opened the car door and jumped out off from his car causing him to step on the break unexpectedly. “Damn, Alessia!” I heard him yell along with the loud and long squeaking of the wheels of his car. Irritated, he pressed the horn as if really scared because of what I did. I clearly understood why he acted that way. We should have bumped on the post and I’ll probably be injured more than him. I didn’t turn my back and went my way to our house walking and half-running. I felt him parked his car properly before following me from behind, putting his keys on his pocket.I can’t feel my legs anymore nor hear the noises around our village because of the loud thumping of my heart making me want to focus on myself and on Naomi who’s now fighting for her life again for over a million times. I opened the main door and scanned my eyes on the living room. Not a minute had passed when I figured out th

    12 Alessia’s Point of View:“Can you please all stop looking at him?” I groaned with annoyance and scratched the back of my ear. It has been almost an hour of silence while boring their eyes on Yadiel who seemed to be feeling the awkwardness and embarrassment. The sun is now hiding behind the clouds and that replaced the gorgeous half-moon on the night sky. The cold breeze of the December filled the surroundings along with the sound of falling leaves swirling with the wind. Yadiel offered earlier to pay our electricity. Even though I want to refuse, I still accepted it. I told him that I will pay him after my payment and he was okay with it. It’s dark outside and clearly, our neighbors were now on their beds, sleeping peacefully yet here we are still wide awake, sitting on the living room and waiting for the egg of the dinosaur to crack. Earlier, after Naomi recovered, I was about to excuse Yadiel but that didn’t go well because of Noah who seemed to have a huge hatred on him. W

  • Scream For Blood, My Love   Family Dinner

    13 Alessia’s Point of View:The whole place suddenly went silent as if it’s illegal for us to make any noises. The sounds of crickets and the annoying noise coming from the lizards were the least that I can hear at the moment. We are all gathered in the dining area, sitting right next to each other comfortably except Yadiel who seemed to be anxious on what’s happening and what will going happen this night. Our dining table only consist of six chairs, good for six people more like to say, only good for our family, but now that Yadiel is here, I have to get the metal stool at the backyard just for him to have a chair. At first, I was hesitant to offer him a metal stool. Just by looking at him who’s personality’s screaming for money, I really doubt if he would sit in a chair like that, but gladly and luckily, he accepted it and even thanked me which is very unusual of him. I scanned my gaze to my family and to Yadiel only to notice one thing. It has been almost half an hour since we

    14 Alessia’s Point of View: “What happened next?” I can see how interested Sandra is by just measuring how wide her smiles. We are now currently spending our one-hour lunch break here in the cafeteria. We both just finished our works earlier and I have to say that Sandra, being my office mate friend is worth it for she guides me in everything I do. Every time I have a question, she’s always there. It’s really funny to think that instead I will be the one who’s guiding her, it’s now working in the opposite way. In fact, she also volunteered a help in case I needed some guidance or a hand with my works. She started to expressed her concern and care for me after I told her what happened to my sister. “The charisma and hotness are filling this cold cafeteria.” Smirking, she stated and gestured the whole place where there’s a lot of people wearing thick clothes to prevent themselves from catching cold. I winced in disagreement. “He was just concerned about my sister that’s why he le

I don’t know where we are but it took 15 minutes for us to arrive here. We entered the wide and metal gate that I know costs a lot. Different kind of flowers and different kind of designs is what welcome us the moment we entered the gate. Not far enough is a water fountain with a statue in the center. Yadiel parked his car earlier in front of the stairs that is shining like a new coin from the bank. The place was clean and so as the scent of the different kinds of flowers that is kissing my nostrils brought by the wind.“Where are we? Is this some sort of resort, hotel or what?” Confused yet excited, I asked.I walked faster to catch up with him.This is more like a mansion or a castle. I bet that this land is wider than what I think. I didn’t have the chance to see what’s behind this mansion

They were grimacing at me secretly and just by the look of their facial expressions, they seemed to be dismayed by my aggressiveness.I rolled my eyes on them and stayed silent instead.In fact, I don’t want to go with him. He left me unanswered earlier and left me with no choice but to follow all his rules as if he’s living his life as a king.

But, clearly, having a boss like him is a pain in the ass.You are left with no choice but to do what he wants you to do.

It shined like it’s a star from the night sky.I didn’t answer and observed her carefully.With an honest vulgar insult in her eyes, she eyed me from head to toe before curving her lips to form a smirk.“You haven’t changed a bit, huh!” She shakes with laughter but ended up protecting her body by turning her shoulder.Her big circular earrings with three layers made its way to make her look more elegant.Using my dead voice, I replied, “Cut the crap, Celine.

He looked at Dad who’s sitting beside Naomi’s hospital bed and holding her cold hand while tears cascading down his cheeks. “I have been feeling uneasy this whole night as if something will happen wrong but I still chose to sleep, Only if I know that this would happen…” regret and pain were written all over his face as his voice with full of anger with himself covered my ears. Dad wiped his tears using his other hand while tightening his grip on Naomi’s hand, slightly caressing her palm. He lowered his head to kiss Naomi’s hand before biting his bottom lip to prevent himself from sobbing. “Drink up,” Dad raised his eyes to the glass of water blocking his sight causing him to see my Mom. He accepted the water before drinking it, eyes were on my Mom. “Crying won’t do nothing. Why don’t you have a rest first?” She said while pulling a chair towards his d

It says ‘Severe Diseases and Its Symptoms.’Glancing at the shirt that I’m holding, then and there I realized that she was right.I was holding it in the wrong way and folding the shirt on the inside.“I’m sorry,” was all I can say and attempts to do it all over again.“Is something bothering you?” She noticed and fold her knees into an Indian seat.I glanced at her and became silent for a second.The cold breeze brought by the night washed the froze leaves of the trees in our garden.

    17 Alessia’s Point of View: My knees were shaking like a 7.5 magnitude earthquake as I step inside the conference room. The cold wind welcomed and kissed my skin the moment I closed the door with care. I followed Yadiel from his back who’s confidently walking with his suit towards his waiting swiveling chair. My heels were clicking on the floor along with the sound of my heavy breathing while secretly swallowing the huge lump in my throat after my eyes accidently landed on Arthur who seemed not to notice my presence yet. Yes, yet. I surely know that he will notice me not soon enough. While heading my way towards my chair, I can’t help myself but to stare at him. My head was all on him yet my body was facing where Yadiel was walking on. Staring at him for a while made me realize how much he changed. His natural messy hair when we were still on college was now in clean cut. His tall nose line and his sexy jaw line defined his facial features even more. My eyes unintentionally l

This is her first time buying this kind of cake. It costs half of Naomi’s medicines for her to take it and give it to Arthur for their monthsary. She worked hard for it and did multiple part-time jobs just for her to afford this cake. The sun is just about to set when she arrived in front of Arthur’s condo building. She decided to visit him unannounced instead and give the monthsary present in person. They both didn’t see each other in the campus because Arthur’s not around because he’s having a cold. Alessia didn’t bother to ring the doorbell and just opened the condo using the spare key that Arthur gave her. Without any hesitation, she stepped in and walked towards the sala set only to gasped and froze in pure shock. She unconsciously took a few steps backward along with th

    15 Author’s Point of View: (Flashback) “Your family really likes me a lot, huh.” A pinch of amusement and happiness were echoing from Arthur’s voice causing Alessia to take a quick glance at him. They were both now at the mini-park of Alessia’s province, swaying the swing that they are sitting on. It’s already past midnight and both of them was taking the place alone. No parents shouting at their child to be careful on playing, no kids playing and running around and especially no one can eavesdrop their conversation. It’s only the light posts, the cold breeze and the creaking sound of the old and rusty chain of the swings were evident right at the moment. The side of Alessia’s lips rose up while playing her rubber shoes with the dry sand. “You’re the first ever guy I introduced to them and that explains why.” She replied in a matter–of–fact half-shrugging the words. He softly chuckled making Alessia to flush in red for an unknown reason. She keeps on feeling this weird respons
