I can't erase the smile plastered on my face after walking out of the venue where our graduation was held. I have a diploma now, all my sacrifices are now paid off at last. Amir and Katerine were there for me, cheering with proud grins on their lips as they clapped their hands every time my name was called on stage. I shake my head as I enter her car. “I’m very proud of you Asmara,” she kissed me on my lips swiftly and handed me a small box right after the ceremony. I hurriedly went to find her, and here we are inside her car making out. Amir just laughed at me when I told her I needed to find my Katherine and thankfully he is not against us. Funny how he said we should have exchanged bodies then. I know his preference since he is very much vocal about it even when we were younger. “Thank you, Miss Johnson,” I chuckled but she just bite my exposed shoulder naughtily, since I am wearing an off-shoulder white dress. “What is this are you proposing now?” I tease her and her fac
We bid each other goodbye it was somehow soothing to finally had the courage to tell her my gratitude, and at the same time, I'm kinda missing her playful child-like attitude. I decided to go for a walk since it is still early to go home, I have also resigned from my part-time job at the grocery store. My phone rang and I fished it in my coat showing Katherine’s name on the screen. I can't suppress the smile on my face. “Hey lovely why are you walking in this cold weather?” I smiled and looked around I saw the lady who makes my heart leap peeking in her car’s window, still talking to me on the line. I turned off the call and walk-in her direction excitedly. She opened her door and I climbed inside. She leaned forward and kissed me swiftly on my lips.“You missed me that much huh” I teased and return her kisses.“Of course who would not miss an angel”, she focused on driving.“Where are we heading to?” I asked curiously. “Uh. It is a surprise dear,” she winked at me.“Okay just driv
I woke up and I was a bit groggy I feel the throbbing of my head and a bit spinning when I get up from bed. There wasn't Katherine to be found, I yawned and slowly walked to look at myself in a mirror. I shake my head and cover my mouth suppressing a laugh. The dream felt surreal, it's really weird to see different faces of me, and to be in different bodies. "How as you sleep baby darling?" two soft arms enveloped me from behind, she's really fond of back hugs and sweet nothings in the mornings. "I'm having headaches," She kissed my cheek and it made a sound. I giggled with that gestures. "Poor baby, come on let's eat our brunch so you can take meds for that headache." She took my hand and lead me downstairs. Kath prepared our meal and I could never be this happy when I am with her. The refreshing water from the lake is inviting. We're overlooking it as we sat down at our table. She wiped the mess on the side of my lips. I mumbled thanks and felt my cheek heated. "I had a silly d
Katherine's POV “Hey, Katherine aren’t you gonna come with us? It's been a long since you know.” Jadah wiggled her eyebrows at me. She strode to the door I thought she won't babble anymore “ Come on sugar pie it will be fun," she added. I just continued putting on my mascara not even looking at her. I want her to leave anyway. I know what she was talking about, the fun and whatnot I shake my head. Well her other friends are member of a sorority gang so she's acting like a big jerk to everyone and you will be wondering why she's asking me like we are kinda friends? Well I was having a bad day that time and she and her friends were smoking outside the campus waiting for someone they could trip on but Jadah saw me I thought I will be their next victim but I was wrong, she remembered my face because we are classmates in Algebra which she totally sucks our professor even insulted her in our last exam but she like didn’t care at all. I was so damn scared when they called me, who woul
Katherine's POV Asmara was just listening to me the whole time as I've narrated my past experience with men, and how reckless I am when I was younger. We've settled in the wooden ramp while our feet are submerged in the water. It's really relaxing to unwind here. Good thing I had this place preserved. My grandma owned this place and I was surprised she gave me this, she once told me that this place is really close to her heart. "So, what happened to your friend?" Asmara asked and drank the fruit juice I made her before we went here to chill."After college, we never get the chance to see each other again, I had to take care of mom and marriage shit happened so yeah," I answered in a small voice. I admit during those days I felt how to be a normal person living her own life without restrictions. "I supposed that's the fun you've been meaning to find Kath," She eyed me with sympathy."Yeah, but I was never been this happy with you," A smile crept on her face, and she blushed. "I n
I despise flying, I guess I am one of those people who's suffering from a certain phobia they called Acrophobia, I just don’t know why. I can’t remember falling or being thrown away from a plane for me to have this horrifying thing of flying. A lot of people enjoy the sight of high towers that are almost touching the feather-like clouds and the chaotic view underneath just like this woman sitting beside me elegantly taking a sip on her glass of champagne. Katherine was persistent to take me to his grandfather's homeland, which is in Russia. I never peg her to have Russian blood, and now she is telling me she was born and raised there. "Are you still in awe that I am partly Russian?" She asked and held my hand. I shivered but I pretend really hard not to be affected by her scent made me lose my mind I was like in a raging tornado spinning and deliriously craving to be touched. I shake my head and sighed heavily. "Yeah, sort of?" I faked a chuckle because I'm really scared to be fly
“I know you are awake, and you're just, uh" her voice is just so soothing that I want to play asleep even more, I smiled and opened my eyes to meet her gaze. I grab her nape kissing her shutting from the words she was about to say. Our lips dance in a rhythm that only our hearts know, letting ourselves explore each other’s mystique. I poured all my confusion and let the strong attraction that ignited the flame from our kiss. little did I know a single drop of tear ran down my cheek, never in my life have I felt something so strong that it felts like running down a slippery mountain my heart palpitates as it was about to get out on my chest I know she feels it too.Neither one of us wants to stop but the need to breathe interrupts us from devouring each other’s mouth I pant hard and heat crawls up all over my face and her smirk wasn’t helpful at all staring into each other for a like second then a knock from the door woke me I covered my face with my palms but she just chuckled and k
I'm shamelessly humming a song as I am standing on the veranda, enjoying an almost sunset view when a familiar scent lingers in my nostrils the fragrance that I could smell forever, warm soft arms envelop my petite body I look small every time she will hover all over me which I certainly love. I felt secure and everything but our height difference doesn't stop me from jostling around whenever we are together I like to cling my arms to her neck foolishly acting like a little child but she never complains she said she loved to feel my body I thought I was the one who's getting clingy each passing day but it turns out she's the one who develops more of that habit. Burying her face on my neck and later planting small kisses on my nape it felts so well but we haven't reached the highest level of intimacy just yet, and I’m glad she isn't that pushy but I can tell she wanted it but I don’t really know how would I react if ever that thing will happen between us. “Hey, what are you thinking
Om kreem-kalikayi-namaha I used to wonder what this phrase is all about, but never I have looked for its meaning or some sort of explanation in the encyclopedia or even on the internet. Not until that day that she left. Leaving me with a damn paper with her metaphors and heart-wrenching poetry. She never told me about the reason but an intellectual human being can already figure out the answers to those questions, She doesn't want me to be tied to a blurry future with her. The phrase means Salutations to the divine kali, she's the Goddess of rebirth in Hindu, and she grants wishes if you're deserving of them. I asked myself oftentimes if I am really deserving of what the universe can offer? Katherine was the meaning of life, for me. Then she left, and everything starts to look dull and ugly. "The papers are at your desk hun," my co-worker tapped my shoulder as she went to close the door, I uttered thanks in a small voice, and silence eloped the room. the silence that I am comfor
Katherine's skilled fingers manipulate each key, She's getting weak each day, and day by day it kills me to see her in pain. If only I can take it all, I would. The melody coming from it tells me how she has been. I stare at her savoring each melodious tone while she closes her eyes, playing gracefully with her head sways as the song continues to dominate the whole living room at first it is all calm and peaceful giving me a picture of a little girl running around full of smiles and giggles having a carefree soul, a little girl full of hopes and sun rays radiating her as she continues to pass it through with the people around her, a picture of a lovely face as she grew up to be more beautiful with her hair so soft as silk, her almond eyes will bore and roamed around leaving everyone in awe. Her fair skin turns pinkish each time it was hit by sunlight her wings are beautifully hanging down to her back she is ready to soar high. But as it went further her fingers went more aggressive c
“Twin sis, as much as I wanted to keep this from you, I think you have every right to know,” Amir called over the phone. “Is that thing can wait? I’m at the hospital right now Katherine passed out earlier” I sobbed and clutched my coat. “Oh God Asmara. Is she okay? I’m so sorry you’re all alone right now” “I’ll be okay Amir. Tell me what is it.” “Asmara there’s too much on your plate at the moment.” I can hear his heavy breathing of Amir. “Don’t you dare paraphrase it, Amir? I’m serious.” “I found our mom Asmara…” from there, times froze. Sometimes to move on with our past we cannot deny that forgetting is one of the compensatory mechanisms we use to get over the excruciating pain that drowned us. Maybe that was the best thing that Amir and I utilized to save ourselves I thought that the more I think about how painful it is the more I let myself get drowned even more. But I was wrong I was denying all these years that I no long for her. She left at the most inconvenient time fo
Katherine's POV There comes a time when we will come to find another path and little do we know this brand new surface we had let ourselves walk in will take us a hundred degree changes in our lives, how can we hold things when they started to fall apart? How can we secure our love story in this enchanting ideology we had lost in? Is love enough? or will promises and compromises will cut ties in between? Before I met her I was following a constant routine of how will I handle my ever messed up way of living. The morning I woke up until another morning things were boring but my routine back then had kept me stable for a long time. I have been in the dark until this angel freed me, she accepted my all, and I could never be this grateful. if past lives are real I'm going to give all these golds that I have for us to be together again in the next hundred lifetimes. “Hey, aren’t you going to be late?” Asmara snapped her fingers at me. She is annoyed. “I’ve been trying to talk to you bu
It’s been days since she finally let me get out of her room after a long period of convincing her I won’t leave and earning her trust back, but to me, she's not the same Katherine anymore though she seemed calm every time she bores her eyes to mine, in every wrong word that slipped out my mouth it changes her behavior I’m afraid she's losing it. Until I got the chance to unravel the things she kept, I made myself sick by taking a small dose of drugs to stimulate symptoms that will look like I’m really sick and luckily she believes it without any trace of suspicion she got into a business conference abroad but the whole mansion is secured assuring not to give me an escape even I had promised her I won’t leave but still she is that desperate. I can never ask someone from her people, their loyalty is for Katherine, they care for her so much, they won't help. I tried asking some maids but they are obviously scared to talk probably they saw how Katherine loses her control and perhaps the
Everything seemed to be to running smoothly until I woke up from my dream realizing no matter how much we love each other we can never be together. She'll be ruined her reputation, the downside of dating somebody who is not just an ordinary gal. I can never imagine people ruining her, maybe this is happiness will about to end I can’t stand seeing her burn down the things she built maybe her father is right I should end this before it’s too late. “We did not raise my daughter to end up with a dyke." he smirks but disgust is written all over his face. I wonder how he knows me but with money and connections? a typical key to everything this man showed up in front of my face and asked me to come with him looking at his men all over him I cannot decline his offer so we are in a restaurant I can’t seem to eat my food with jus what he said right in front of my face. “Dyke? I think that is an improper word, I don't do the labeling. sorry to disappoint." I smiled sweetly at him how dare he
I prayed silently that Katherine won’t be home till I get there, climbing out of the cab I hurriedly went out after paying the driver not minding waiting for change, beads of sweat formed on my forehead I don’t know maybe because I’m afraid she will get mad or the idea of her silent treatment and coldness are slowly tearing my heart. I guess I’m running out of luck Kath's car is here great!Gathering myself together I decided to go inside and face my consequences. I have figure out something the other day and it’s kind of bothering me honestly, I mean some part of me rejoices because just like any other normal kind of relationships where in jealousy and conflicts are inevitable. But I’m not really a fan of it like too much grip from your lover or so whatever it's overrated.“Ma'am, Madam is not in a mood since she got here a while ago and she seemed v... very furious." I can feel the fear in her voice and half running leaving me with brows shot what is this again Katherine? I sighed b
It’s been a long time since I've got to see Mira, we are both busy in life and if we wait for our schedules to loosen up we will be waiting forever and so I did tell her to sneak out just for a while to have some talk I owe to her big time and I wanted some words of encouragements or whatever from a friend, she's is all I have right now because Amir is out there with the world. I'd been waiting for her for almost 20 minutes already, I even make sure it is favorable for her so I decided to meet her just beside the building where she works, she knew how I hate this place because often times bunch of teenagers came here to just sit their ass off not minding if they are invading the whole space plus their irritating noise. A snap woke me from spacing out I noticed I’ve been doing this lately even Katherine has been noticing it too. "Oh, oh I’m late and I’m sorry, my boss is such a pain in the ass. I’m having a bad day so better off tell me something good,” “God, you talk so fast!" I
The night is tempting and so is the crushing of warm luke water in the pool where a lovely maiden beautifully swam along with its current's wearing all gold two-piece, she looks gorgeous with her curves that were intricately sculpted, she is an artwork herself. My insecurities creep on me well I do have curves, and I gained weight in the past months as I've checked it the last time. I honestly thought that I have a good set metabolism and that I can easily burn down fats but heck that was before. I’m not even a gym person I just do some jogs around the neighborhood before, I'm having thoughts about hitting a gym very soon. I looked at myself, hesitant to get rid of my silk robe maybe wearing this baby pink two-piece isn't a good idea Oh God where’s my brain! Before I could retreat Kath spoke looking at me intently I saw something in her eyes or I’m just imagining the whole thing I saw admiration as it becomes darker. I'm pretty sure I saw lust or is it just a strong attraction oh
