“Get away from me, you creep!” Emily screamed as soon as she pushed her eyes open. A sudden heavy migraine attacked her as soon as she had spoken, and just then did she realize how much alcohol she had drank the previous night.Dustin, on the other hand, split his eyes slowly, rubbing slowly on his orbs, trying to recall the compelling situation he found himself in. He recalled drinking a little the previous night, and then the new cycle followed up; they had a few more drinks with Hayle, yet as soon as Hayle made her way out of the house, she realized what a great deal of fun they were having and then drank some more. Then, after three asn, he had not stopped.He won't necessarily be expected in the office. Although he knows things might get awkward between him and Hayle, which is why he lied about having a thing or two to do, I was hoping that eventually, if she came to push, the entire thing would be off their shoulders. He took a quick glance around, his mind laced with a coupl
Hayle.“What do you think?.” I asked and swirled right in front of him, he looked rather exhausted but I wasn't done.“this is the one, it looks perfect I mean, it's the best it brings out your eyes and all.” he complemented with a smile, I turned my gaze from the mirror and glanced at him, slowly I approached him.“My eyes are blue, this dress is green, it does not bring out my eye color Alex , I told you to pay more attention to the color stripes, the design of the folds and curves of the dress.” I complained.A giggle came on from the other end, I glanced up and several workers scurried away in haste as they realized I caught them off guard.“Are we not done yet?.” Alex asked lazily but I rolled my eyes in my head , drew closer to him and snatched off a dress in his grasps.“Oh sorry, what was that again? Last I checked I warned you but you didn't want us taking much luggage along, saying we would buy new ones and you didn't stop to think clearly did you? I know you've got the mon
Hayles point of viewI shifted in my seat, my eyes pinned against the file placed in front of me, while I stuck up the ends of the pen into my teeth. I had been pondering the whole day on how to thank Alex; he had been nice enough, and I had sent him off in a rather hasty manner the previous day, which probably registered me as nothing better than a weirdo to the public as a whole, although I knew I needed to make certain amendments.“Hayle?.” a voice called, drawing me out of whatever fancy land I had been drawn into.“Yes, how may I help you, please?. '' he asked with a smile settled on my face as I responded to the young man who stood before me. He worked with Alex, so I knew almost immediately that it was related to him already.“Mr. Alex had asked for you, so I think it's in your best interest that you check with him right now; it seemed urgent.” He added at the end of his words and turned down his feet even before I got a chance to respond.I stood to my feet and grabbed the fol
hayle’s pov.I could see him avert his gaze away from mine as soon as our eyes locked, for some reason an unsettling feeling got stuck at the pit of my belly and it made me wonder how and why I was stuck up on things like this. Was he still being a cry baby because I solely refused to eat with him in public at the company?.“Good morning alex .” I greeted as soon as he made way towards the elevator and I followed behind him, he had said nothing even when I smiled from ear to ear,I knew I should not have requested things that made him feel petty and yes, I was terrible at explaining feelings, I could have just told him I was never good with taking things from people without doing anything for them in return, but then again, I should never run my opinions against anyone else.I swallowed hard, wallowed in my own self pity as I recalled how hard it was for me to sleep last night, been in a strange house really did take it's roll on me, Emily and I had barely gotten chance to talk, as s
Morgan 's point of view“You don't look too good. Someone spoke from across the bar while his feet drew closer to me. I took a shot of tequila, then chugged down more lime before moving my eyes to match his.“ matt.” I wiped my eyes, two peas in a pod. They were unbelievable.“I don't think the boss would like to see you here. Drinking all alone so late at night in a bar like this, aren't you both just married?” Matt asked with a smile lingering on the sides of his lips.“You should be worried about your boss and not me; besides, does he care where I am or where I'm off to? It's not like it's any of my business or his; last time I checked, he kept pinning and whining on hayle . He just keeps talking about her—way too much gloating floating and this and that, and I'm sick and bloody tired of keeping up with his constant trauma. I'm not his mother, and I'm most certainly not hayle !" I complained and lashed out loud before realizing my mistake.I was a dead bit drunk.But I certainly s
morgan 's point of viewA yawn eased through my lips while I rolled through to the other end of the bed. My hands tapped slowly against the body, just like they had usually done.But there was nothing there.I parted my eyes and brows hastily, and the first thing my eyes landed on was the huge mirror.Right across the room, my very own reflection mocks me. I looked like a mess.A sigh eased through my lips while I pushed further away from the bed ; I wasn't getting it. What could possibly be wrong such as that Giovanni didn't sleep home the previous night.On my first attempt at trying to collect the memories of the previous occurrences, but then I felt an insane urge to retch, I picked my head towards. While I spilled out all the contents in my belly, retching terribly, I turned on the tap in the sink to have my face wiped. And then it dawned on me...“Matt!” I blurted out all at once, darted towards the door, and I dashed out of the room. My eyes scanned through the environm
Chapter oneHaley pushed the door open, and an air of loneliness greeted her. Ethan Hall, her husband, was absent. Not back from his whereabouts. The furious husband had stormed out of the apartment after a heated argument.It had been two days, and he was still not back. And Haley could only think that the three-year marriage had come to a grinding halt.Things had become sour after Haley discovered some nude pictures in her husband's phone. And she couldn't help but think that her husband would be nowhere other than with his mistress, Morgan Reed.Haley moved to pour herself a glass of water. After that, she grabbed her cell phone and dialed the same digits she would be dialing for the millionth time.As expected, it went straight to voicemail. But this time around, she decided to leave a message."Honey, I'm so..." She wasn't sure of how to go about the apology. The words just would not come together."Honey, I'm sorry for the other day. I never should have said those words.
Chapter two“What the hell are you doing here?”“Excuse me!” Morgan released an elongated hiss as she walked past Haley into the apartment.Haley, who was in a hurry to leave, turned after receiving a shove to the shoulder. She had warned the bitch to never set foot in the apartment. Ever.“Ethan, what's she doing here,” Haley asked, setting down her bags.“Oh, sorry. I forgot to tell you. I invited her over.”Haley pondered over the whole situation. Ethan had invited his mistress before signing the divorce papers. This could only mean that Morgan had known about the divorce. Not only that, she might have orchestrated the whole thing.“Into our home?”“Don't make it a big deal. We are no longer together. You already signed the papers.”Morgan turned to Haley and smirked. “You see, I came on invitation. And you, on the other hand, need to leave.“I should leave?” Haley mimicked.“You should. You don't deserve him.”Haley found it amusing that she was now being told to leave
