Lola~
Have you ever been In a situation where it felt like deja vu?Time seemed to slow down, Adonis paused in his steps, Penelope smiling widely at him and me? Well, I burst out laughing. I really couldn’t help it. For a moment I thought there was another Adonis here and of course that’s funny.“What’s funny?” Penelope asked rather frankly as my laughter reduced into hiccups. “My boyfriend’s name is also Adonis. It’s funny they have the same name.” I blurted, turning to see Adonis who looked scared? Why would he be scared?“Baby, come over here.” Penelope says and this time, it felt like a cold bucket of water was poured on my head. I slowly followed Penelope’s gaze to Adonis and I felt my legs weaken.It’s not possible, right?“A-Adonis?” I called out his name rather carefully. I don’t want to assume anything. It would be more than hurtful to Adonis if I start doubting him, right?“Oh, you know him? Actually I’m not supLola~It felt like everything I’ve been trying to keep away from me for the past hours just flooded through me. My eyes became clouded with unshed tear as I stared at him, unmoving yet breathing.I have so many questions. My mind was running through so many things yet I couldn’t open my mouth to get them out. I inhaled sharply, maneuvering my way towards the door. Thankfully he was still out cold so I unlocked the door and made my way into the apartment. Trying my very best not to break down and bawl my eyes out.I shut the door behind me rather quietly and made my way towards the house landline, making a call straight to the receptionist.“Hello, I’m from apartment 204 and there’s an unwanted guest in front of my apartment, please get him out.” I raked my hair backwards tiredly as I listened to the lady who assured me security will be here.I sighed, falling to my knees and wrapped my arms around myself in a bid to calm my body. I didn’t realize I

I’m extremely sorry to the readers who unlocked the last chapter. It was a mistake and I’ve asked my editor to help delete it. I’m sorry again. ___Lola~Here I was, squirming under the hot and hard gaze of mom. I could’ve sworn I saw smoke gushing out of Mom’s ears. I just told her I would be leaving NewYork for a month and she can’t stand it.“Why are you going on about? A whole month? That’s too long. Way too long.” She stressed but my mind was made up. I need a break from this drama here.“Ma..” I started but shut up on seeing her hard stare. Her eyes almost popping out because of me. She stood up, pacing around the sitting room restlessly.Yeah. She warmed her way into my home and really, I wasn’t in the right sense to ask her not to. Over the past week, she’d constantly come here every single day, she’d bring soup and feed me. Over the past week, I realized just how good it feels to have a mother.I sighed, massaging my tem
Adonis ~“You have to go home, sir. I’m worried you might fall I’ll with the way you’re going.” I heard Noah say, looking up to see him nervously staring at me, shifting from one feet to the other. “You can go home, Noah. I’m perfectly capable of taking care of myself.” I snapped, focusing back on the wars of papers spread out on the table“Sir.” He starts but I’ve had enough.“I don’t pay you to control me, Noah. Do your work and leave. Stop trying to be my mother.” I couldn’t bite back the words that left my lips, watching his face crumple “Ah..Yes sir.” He says, his voice coming out small and quiet.He meant well and I’ve just fucked it up too. I keep fucking everything up. I heard his footsteps stalk out of the office and raised my head. A sigh escaped my lips as I leaned back against the chair. Glancing at the wall clock. It’s already thirty minutes past 11 pm. I stood up, walking towards the cabinet I now stock with my different br
Adonis~A tiny beep drew me out of my sleep? I struggled to open my eyes, I could hear hushed voices speaking but I couldn’t figure out the owner of the voice. My eyes shot open, a blurry daze clouded my vision. I shut my eyes close and opened them again, aware of the person clutching my arm tightly.I tried sitting up only to be shoved back, hard. I grunted as I looked around and the first thing I noticed was the white walls. “Hey, are you okay? The doctor would be here soon.” The person beside me says in an extremely familiar voice. I clutched my head as a pain shot up my head. What the fuck happened?“Adonis? Are you okay? You had an accident and was rushed here but thankfully you’ve got nothing to worry about. You suffered a mild concussion and that’s why you were unconscious.” The person says and this time I took the liberty to look at the person only to find myself flinching away hard.“You? Why are you here?” I asked, my voice coming out ha
Lola~It’s been three days since I got here. It’s been the longest three days of my life. It really didn’t click that I am no longer in NewYork and now waking up in Amsterdam, going to work and literally trying to live here.Mr Callus was true to his words, I got a service apartment and will be staying here for the next one month. Jasper is also here but thankfully I don’t have him invading my space. The apartment has two wings and Jasper stays in the left wing side, leaving the right to me. We only speak when it’s about work or perhaps when he meet in the living room but apart from that, I’ve taken to isolation in my room.A sigh escaped my lips as I massaged my temples, I’ve been sitting in the same position since six hours ago, I glanced at the desk four cups of coffee laying on my table. Chloe mustn’t see how I’m living.I know coming to Netherlands was supposed to clear my head and maybe free me from the heart ache I currently feel. It’s be
Lola~I heard a knock at the door, jerking my head towards that direction. I grumbled as I made my way out of the comfort of my bed and pillows, slipping on my fluffiest slippers and opened the door only to see Jasper standing awkwardly with a giant flask in his hands. He smiled sheepishly at me, rubbing his neck, an action I’ve come to realize he does whenever he’s nervous.“Jasper?” I called out his name and if possible this man turns redder, his neck growing red.“I uh..you came home quite late and I thought- well- the man that brought you- he had called me and said you passed out In his car and I gave him the directions to this place because I’m apparently saved as Jasper housemate on your phone and so he brought you here and I got you to your bed. I decided you might need some tea or coffee so I brought this to you-“ he paused, his entire face growing red. “I’m rambling, right?” He asked, clearly embarrassed but if he’s embarrassed then how about me? I’m m
Lola~Sightseeing in Amsterdam is definitely something I would do every night when I’m free. “Why are you smiling?” Jasper asked, licking and smudging some ice cream on his chin. I shrugged and scooped a little, watching his face contour into fake disgust.“I can’t believe you actually like Mint choco. That’s like one of the greatest sin one can ever commit on earth.” He grumbled, scooping more of his bland vanilla ice cream. Yeah. That goes every good thing I wanted to do for him. Like telling him he has ice-cream in his nose and chin but not anymore. What’s life without fucking up at times? “All that talk from someone who is taking vanilla. Yeah, try again.” I snarled, sticking my tongue out childishly as he squinted his eyes at me.“I’m gon go get more.” I announced and he looked at me baffled “You won’t be able to walk tomorrow with all these.” He warned but I couldn’t care less. I walked towards the ice cream stand and ordered, glancing back to see Ja
Lola~Eight months after…"We don’t have all day, Lola. Come on.” Adonis yelled impatiently. I grabbed my phone and walked out of the room. It’s not like anyone told him to get dressed an hour before the said time an now he’s taking it out on me.“You can’t rush perfection, Adonis.” I yelled back. My heels clicking against the marble floor. Adonis was pacing around the living room, talking on the phone with someone I presume to be Liam. A smile made it’s way to my lips as I took a ground look of him. He was dressed in a grey suit, his hair had grown out longer and he tied it into a ponytail with few strands falling to his forehead. I watched as he gently picked up the sculpture sitting pretty on the shelf even as he spoke. He seemed to notice my presence and immediately turned to look at me.A warm smile embracing his lips as his eyes slowly raked me. “I’ll be there soon with her.” He says and cut the call, walking closer to me with a hint of mischief in his eyes.“Are you ready?” I as
It’s been four days…Four days since I’ve gotten mom back. One day since since father has been arrested arraigned to court where he was found guilty of fraud and also holding mom hostage even after her accident. He was also found guilty for threatening me and sentenced to seven years imprisonment.My life has suddenly taken a different turn and route. No matter how short and private the court proceedings were, some of it was still bound to spill to the public and that it did. Although I wasn’t shaken by the different conspiracies people kept coming up with.“Hey.” Lola whispered, I turned to look at her with a glass of apple juice in her hands. I rolled my eyes playfully as she took a seat beside me. We were both sitting in Liam and Chloe’s patio. We couldn’t celebrate fully since mom was still in the hospital, Penelope still hasn’t been caught and Lola hasn’t healed. She still has a cast on and still uses her crutches.We all sat outside here eating and talking until Chloe felt slee
Adonis ~It’s been three days. Three days since I went to the police station and gave them the recording I had, filing a report against dad for holding mom hostage. They accepted it and opened the case but said they’d have to investigate it further before taking actions. I was loosing patience as the day went by, here I am hunched against the desk, staring at my laptop.“Sir.” Noah’s voice boomed in the office, I sat up to see him standing right in front of the table.“It’s late and I should head home now.” He says and I nodded.“How about you, sir? I don’t think it’s quite okay for you to spend the night here. You should go home and rest.” He tells me but I wasn’t willing to listen. I need work to distract myself from everything going wrong In my life. I legit thought handing the recording of father saying he’d rather kill mom would be enough to take him into custody the next day perhaps but it’s been three whole days! Three days of me waiting for the result of their investigation.
Adonis~A glass cup was thrown at the door Immediately I stepped in, I ducked my head as fast as I could and the glass smashed against the wall. I turned to look at the now shattered pieces of the glass cup.Fuck!I turned to see the man responsible for it, he had a drink in his hand, looking too calm for someone who threw a glass cup at me seconds ago. I gulped down the pile in my throat as he smiled.“Welcome.” He grinned rather scarily, gulping more of the drink down his throat. I took the liberty to look around but everywhere looked normal. Like it has always been.“What happened with Penelope?” He asked and I shrugged, walking away from the door, to the living room. He raised his eyebrows on seeing my response. Smashing the glass of alcohol he had in his hand on the floor. I flinched hard as soon as I saw what he did, slowly glancing up at him to see blood dripping down his hand.“I asked you a question, boy! I expect an answer.” He snarled angrily."How am I supposed to know wha
Adonis ~It felt like a punch was thrown to my guts as I looked at Penelope who smirked right at me. “You did what?” I snarled, grabbing her by the arm as I glared at her. Her sick and twisted smile back on her face. I squeezed her arm as tightly as I could, knowing she’d have marks there. “What the fuck did you do to, Lola? I snapped angrily and she grinned, darting her tongue out to lick her lips sultrily.“Why? You can’t stand your darling baby cakes, lay in an hospital bed for some days or months or-if I’m lucky enough, years?” She taunted. A growl escaped my lips, I grabbed her neck, my hands tightened against her neck. I pushed her against the wall, gripping her neck tightly as her face became red in an instant.“If something happens to, Lola. I promise you, you’d die by my hands and I’ll gladly go to jail.” I snarled, digging my nails into her arms to leave a mark. "I promise you, I will personally make sure to put a bullet through your skull and feed your remains to vultures.
Adonis ~(Note; all of these happened before Lola’s accident. This happened on the day of her accident.) I woke up the next day with my phone blazing through my ears. A groan escaped my lips as I sat up, sleepily rubbing my eyes as I reached for my phone. I spent the rest of the night yesterday going through work with Noah. I’ve been slacking off but how can I not slack off? I’ve been going through hell trying to get mom back and fuck this whole wedding with Penelope who by the way decided it was a great move to leave my phone with so many missed calls.“Hello sir.” I recognized the voice of my private investigator, immediately sitting up right. He’s calling this early morning and that should mean something, right?“Any news?” I asked, going straight o the point and ignoring every greeting I know I should have done. I could feel my heart beat thump louder in my chest as I waited for his reply.“I have news sir but I have to see you for this.” He tells me. I furrowed my eyebrows, getti
Adonis~Here i was sitting in a coffee shop, waiting for Penelope’s friend of maybe a for. I had no idea what to think or maybe I do, after all she did tell me that she hates Penelope. I sighed as I rubbed the nape of my neck, taking a sip of the expresso I had ordered. Images of what happened earlier in the day flashed through my mind. I could only hope I haven’t fucked up everything entirely with Lola.I looked up to see someone walking towards me, I cocked my eyebrows up on seeing who it was. I didn’t understand why she was dressed so weirdly. She has a black face cap on, a black jean and top, pairing it with a black jacket and black sunglasses. I furrowed my eyebrows as she got to my side. Looking left and right before sitting down opposite me.“What’s going on? Why are you dressed like some spy and looking around so cautiously and nervously?” I asked as she removed her sunglasses and cap. "What? Please tell me you know who I am?” She asked, rakin
Lola~I ran out of the house, ignoring the yells of Liam and Chloe. I just wanted to be away from everyone as it is. I stopped a taxi and hopped it, wiping the tears that trickled down my cheeks. Just why did he tell me all of these now? My thoughts were going hay wire and I had nothing to do to stop it. "Ma’am, I couldn’t help but notice your mood. Is everything alright?“ the taxi driver piped up. I hadn’t noticed the tears silently flowing down my face as I leaned against the back seat. I sat up right, wiping my tear stricken face and looked at the driver whose features had turned into one of concern.I opened my mouth to speak but nothing was coming out so I nodded. He smiled warmly at me “Everything-goes.” He says.Our eyes met through the rear view “Have you heard it? It’s a song by BTS leader, Kim Namjoon and also my favorite song.” He says and turned on the volume of the radio'As the night passes and morning comes, as flowers and frui
Adonis~I watched her take a seat, trying to collect herself and look at me. Her eyes was cold and distant. I inhaled deeply and began to walk closer to her, taking a seat opposite her but also not so far from her.I heard the sharp intake she took when I sat, instinctively I reached out to touch her but she flinched. She flinched away from me. I felt my heart stop for a second as I noticed that action “Please don’t touch me.” She whispered and if it’s possible for a person’s heart to get shattered twice then mine just did.I swallowed the lump in my throat, trying to gather my thoughts and voice but I couldn’t seem to get the words I longed to say out of my mouth. How do I start? I missed you? I love you? I’m sorry I hurt you?How exactly do I start because I have no idea.Earlier when Liam had asked me to come over without any explanation I did. It never crossed my mind that he would ask Lola to come too. Maybe if he told me, I would’ve prepared
