2024-10-29 19:42:56"My house!" I launched in a dramatic entrance, after missing my bed after a busy day. I hum my way inside but my feet stopped when I heard the shower pouring in the bathroom.
Adam? Well, he is the only one who can enter here.
I bit my lip and my heart went into summersault as I think of him here after a week of not even seeing that bittersweet man. "Adam?" I utter loud, enough for him to hear and leaned my head to lay my ear on the door of the bathroom. Is he done yet? My heart was hammering in my rib and I felt like my sternum cracked when he spoke on the other side, in the hallway. "You're going to kill me." I leaned on the bathroom door, calming my nervous heart down. As I did, my eyes kept looking at the contour of Adam's neck and his wet hair, making my heart more dysfunctional. Down girl. I closed my eyes and waved my hand at him and made a step to go in my room.
"Did Zach walk you home?" I turned to him as he

Zach tagged along with us as we went to a restaurant. Kate was still a little off again, he made me some chocolates and she’s like this again, but Cathlyn was fine. Zach kept hurdling me beside him, with his body in between me and the girls."What the hell are you doing?" I whispered as he draped his arm on my shoulder keeping me close."Keeping you safe." He winked at me and I rolled my eyes on him and leaned forward to talk to the girls."How are you guys doing by the way?" I beamed at them."Well, I am doing fine," Cathlyn spoke in her calm voice and Kate just smiled, she looked lonely. I escaped Zach's arm and went beside Kate."Are you okay?""Yea, I'm fine. Just tired, I guess." She didn't even bother to look at me.Is she mad at me or anything?I glanced at Cathlyn and she shook her head and gestured me beside her. We continued walking towards the restaurant and we sat together. Zach and I stayed clos

What?A red Mercedes is parked in front of my house and Adam was handsomely leaning on it. As soon as he spotted me, he walked towards me, eyeing me like I am the most beautiful creature he has ever seen. The thought made me want to explode but I disregarded it since it's just a thought."Hello beautiful."I bit my lip to avoid giggling like a teenage girl but his smile made me grin since it was so adorable. He leaned on my ear to whisper, "Glad I know how to stop myself from ripping your dresses off." My eyes widened and I swatted him out of my own consciousness. He lets out a deep chuckle and holds out his hand so I could take it. As I did, he took me to his car, with him glancing at me every second.This is making me even more nervous."Where are we going?" I whispered slowly so that I wouldn't sound so breathless."To a restaurant." He started the engine and I fell silent as I watched the houses we pass by from the window c

I woke up to the motion of the bed, it's like it was floating so I opened my eyes, feeling a weight on my stomach. The sun rays were escaping from the windowpane and the outside was so blue and bright. I squinted my eyes since it was too bright for them but I nearly jumped out of bed when I see Adam naked beside me.What happened!?I gasped in horror, I looked under my blanket and I was wearing Adam's shirt, without my bra, but my panties are on,Thank goodness.I took a peek at Adam and he was still wearing his pants. I let out a sigh of relief but I froze when he opened his eyes to look at me."Well, good morning, Eve. It's been a wild night."What!?"What wild night!?" I chirped in a loud voice and he tilted his head like he was curious or something."You don't remember what happened?" He sat down and his eyes looked shocked that I believed him and I felt angry."Stop shitting with me, Adam!"

All I remember was that I was lying in my bed, completely out of my consciousness. I was tired from the day activities with Adam, so I went to bed as soon as I finished my night wash. When I fell asleep, shrouded voices kept entering my head and it was so nostalgic."I love you, Eve...""And I you, Adam..."Adam and my voice echoed in my ear as images of me and him lying down the flat lively green grasses appeared within me. He still wore the same lovely expression in his face and I can feel my cheeks, as if it was tied up, never falling down due to my grins. He pulled me close to him, tucking my loose strands behind my ear and then whispered some words that were too unclear for me to understand. The images suddenly disappeared and all I can see now is a vast of nothingness. "Is this still a dream?" I walked down the black space and all I can hear is my own breathing and the echoes of every step that I made. I closed my eyes and then everything

"Shit..." My ears were suddenly so clogged and my vision was blurry. It was so darn painful that I can't even open my eyes. I felt so weak but I cannot stay unconscious or else I wouldn't know what happened."There's no use, little flower."Little flower?Who the fuck was that?I do know that voice but why? I turned my back and tried to move but my hands were tied behind my back and I was lying on a cold concrete. When I opened my eyes, everything was blurry but it was clear that I didn’t know where I am. My breaths started to be quicker as my heart pulsates on my body out of fear. Even in this blurry motion, I can see clearly. It was Simon, that fucking weirdo."The fuck do you want?" I uttered, I am deeply unafraid but I was mad. The back of my head stings and I feel like my body was invalid, there was nothing for me to do. But now I know who my killer was, and it gave me some sense of strength to keep my pride."Feis

My eyes flung open when I heard Kate yelped. Zach was still standing by the door and he was just staring the two.Zach looked at his chest then looked at Kate with a smirk on his lips and with a glint on his eyes.What?The bullet did nothing and it's like the gun was never fired at all. My large gaze laid on Zach who was wearing such a frightening expression by the door, sneering at Kate."You have to do better than that, Kate!"Zach laughed manically and his voice was deeper than before, making even me, frightened of his mocking tone. Zach… What are you Zach…? He was cackling and I was just staring at him as Kate continuously fire the gun, trembling and shaking for what they are witnessing. Simon was just frozen behind Kate and I felt the same as my eyes never left my best friend who was slowly turning into a monster that I’ve never known before.My Zach's eyes were as green as the leaves of the tree

"Cathlyn, did you know what Kate did?"I asked her as we sat down at the table by the kitchen. She had been pleading for forgiveness ever since I woke up from my sleep. She was fiddling with her fingers on the table as I asked her."Yes. The thing is, I first learned the truth from the hospital.""How?" I was hurt, she already knew and she just let it subside like it was nothing. But apart from this rage, I wanted to understand,why?"The reason why you were in the flat line was because Kate injected something in your IV Fluid.""What!?" I landed my fist on the table making her jump but I don't care. "You didn't even tell me about it! It's not just a simple child fight! It was my life she tried to end!" I put my palm on my forehead since it was suddenly streaking in pain.I feel too much stress today.Why is this even happening to me? Cathlyn was wiping her tears and I have no choice but to listen to whatever it was

I woke up seeing Adam's bright blue eyes watching me. "Hello, beautiful."I bit my lip, concealing my flustered grin that was plastered on my face early in the morning.What a sweet start of the day.I laid a peck on his lips and jumped to embrace him tight. He let out a low chuckle and I snuggled on his warm bare chest. "It's only 4 am."I hummed at him and he laid a kiss on my head. "He's here."I pulled away and with a questioning look, "what?""Dress yourself Eve." He bit his lip, looking at my breast and I swat his chest, making him laugh.I think Zach will be joining the breakfast and I'm kind of happy to have them around. But I'm kind of nervous because this will be the time when I'll know what Zach really is. I should be mad for him lying to me but it's kind of unreasonable considering that these two brothers just wanted me to be safe. I took a shower and Adam suggested that he'll do coffee.Isn't Adam too kind?

Adam's POV1657.I watched the light rays that penetrated through the water as I submerged myself on the lake. The water was clear, it was pure and it made my body calmer after doing some mortal work by the farm. I have been in this beautiful world for 10 years and have resided with the dwellers ever since. It was so different from our world before where the rivers looked more like blood than this kind of water.I have stayed under this water for quite some time now. The sun was just at the tip of the mountain when I laid my body on this lake. Now, the sun was already up high, directly above every living. My powers never left my body when I came here--- a reason why I could breathe underwater with these slightly small creatures swimming around me.I never thought there’s something more than just cruelty…I closed my eyes, letting the water take care of my body as I s

Adam and I were in his kitchen, cooking paella for our dinner. It was so fun seeing him cook, "How did you learn this, Adam?" "What, cooking?" "Yea." I put some chorizo in my mouth and chew. "Well, because of the restaurants, I guess. I taste them, so I cook them." I choked on the chorizo so I hit my chest a couple of times.That easy? What is he, a gourmet chef?It was awesome to think of but I was dying, so Adam got me some glass of water, laughing at the side. I gulped the water and put the glass down. "I guess, you're the coolest I have ever seen." He snorted at my words and I just helped him cook. As I did, Adam kept kissing my cheek every once in a while as I chopped the ingredients. When we were done, we laid the food and placed some wine at the table. "Here goes our dinner date." I clapped and he placed a candle in the middle of it, grinning at me. "What I ate earlier was the most delicious though." He winked

We reached the house after Zach drove us in his car and as we reached the door, we were just talking about some ridiculous stuffs about movies.“Dress up lady,” he spoke like an old man and I laughed at him, making his way to the sofa.“But what would I wear? Where are we going anyway?” I asked, how the hell would I know what to wear? He curled his back by the sofa to look at me in an upside down manner and I walked towards him and flicked my finger on his chin.“Ouch! Why are you hurting me?” He yelped but I knew he wasn’t hurt, making me giggle. “Just dress up your prettiest.” What is that even supposed to mean? I headed to my room and took a look at my clothes in the wardrobe. I took out a couple of dresses and blouses but my eyes laid on the paper bag from the dress that Zach bought. Should I?I looked at myself at the mirror and stared at myself for a while, well he

"This is my resignation letter." Cathlyn handed over an envelope at my desk without look at me directly."Why?" I asked. I kind of feel nothing as of the moment but I can't lose one good employee just because of our personal issues. She sighed and glanced at me. I was just staring at her, waiting for her reply."This is proper, after everything that's happened. I'm sorry, Eva.""Cathlyn." She set her eyes on me so I decided to be direct. "Is this what you really want?"She smiled and nodded."Okay. What will you do after?" I smiled back at her and stood up on my seat to get close to her. She's not my enemy but I do have trust issues in the meantime but overall, Cathlyn may also be Kate's victim, they have been friends for years, I guess that's just how it is."Culinary?" She shrugged."Okay." That's kind of great for her development, I think. I said that before, she loves cooking more than she loves literature. "Thank you for yo
