DANI

I wake up at noon.

Please don't judge me. Judge this baby growing inside me. All I do is eat and sleep and watch TV nowadays.

I drag myself out of bed and go straight to the kitchen. I make a quick sandwich and gobble down two glasses of milk. I make another sandwich and make my way to the livingroom. I toss myself on the couch and switch on the TV.

As I bite on the sandwich, I can't help but smile to myself. Living alone is absolute bliss. I can sit how I want on my couch. I can sleep how I want on my bed. I can eat whatever the fùck I want. I can fart and poop and scream and sing how loud I want without feeling embarrassed or like I'm disturbing someone. I mean sometimes it can get a little lonely and the bed can get cold at night but it's worth it. Sometimes I miss Damien and I wish he was cooking in my kitchen but I know that will never happen. That man hates me. And he's soon going to be someone's husband. The sooner I get him out of my head, the better!

    DAMIENIt's official.I'm a mad man. And it's all because of Dani...After Vanessa told me that she's pregnant yesterday, all I could think about was Dani. She's the woman I want to have kids with. She's the woman I want to build a family with. Don't get me wrong. I think Vanessa would make a great mom but we are toxic together. We could never build a happy and healthy home for the kids. It would be nothing but chaos.But with Dani...I know we can make a happy and healthy home for our children. Our relationship was so easy and we rarely fought. We did the dishes together and cooked together and watched movies together. Looking back on it, I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with her. It was so peaceful. She felt like home...When Vanessa told me she's pregnant last night, I calmly asked her to leave my office. I didn't even ask for any details about the pregnancy. So I just asked her to leave my office and give me some time alone to think. She quietly left my office and hasn't spoken

    DANIRage roars through me when the door shuts.I dash to the kitchen and grab Damien's plate of food. I storm out of the house and chase him down the hallway. "Damien?"He turns around and I throw the food at his face. The chicken soup and rice drips down his face, some of it splashing on his shirt."Fùck you!" I snap. "Fùck you for messing with my head! Fùck you for your fùcking foolish mind games! Fùck you for toying with my fùcking feelings whenever you feel like it! I never want to see your fùcking face ever again! I wish you nothing but the worst in life! You and your wife! I hope your marriage feels like a constant migraine and drives you to madness!"I turn around, still holding the plate and walk back to the house. I glance at the hallway and Damien has vanished. I rush to the window and watch him speed off in his car. Strangely, this feels like the last time I'll ever see him. And somehow, that makes me burst into tears.For a moment there, I thought I finally had my Damien

    VANESSAI walk past Dani and toss myself on the cosy couch."Nice place." I say, eating my icecream. "And nice couch.""What the fùck are you doing here, Vanessa!" Dani demands."I missed you." You're probably not going to believe this but I actually missed Dani.I missed terrorising her. I missed waking up every day with the sole purpose to make her life miserable. I missed wrecking her marriage and watching her lose her fùcking mind. But most of all, I missed talking to her...Dani is one of the few people that I can share all my secrets with. Not because she's great at keeping secrets. No way. But because I know that she wouldn't dare spill any of the secrets. She's smart enough to know that no one will believe her. Plus, it's fun watching the clear fear on her face when I brag about the things that I'm capable of..."You missed me?" She quirks an eyebrow."Yeah." I nod. "I missed chatting with you. I hate to do this but can I be brutally honest with you?""Go ahead." "You look f

Molly walks towards me with a huge smile and gives me the golden trophy. Stella Stone is glaring at me from the corner.I take the microphone and stand on the centre stage to give my speech."Thankyou so much for the -"Damien appears out of nowhere and grabs the golden trophy from my hand. He pushes me and takes the microphone. My heart stops. The audience gasps in shock."I think we can all agree that murderers don't deserve trophies like these." He chuckles. "This woman right here killed my Mom's driver and left him to die on the road. And it doesn't stop there. She put my mother in a coma and nailed her to the wheelchair.

    DAMIENI just finished setting the table when the doorbell rings.Vanessa is upstairs, dressing up for the dinner date with our friends. Liam and Lucille are already here.I swing the door open and they stare at me in shock for a moment."Haven't you been eating?" Lucille blurts out. "Are you okay?"Yes, I've lost a lot of weight in a short amount of time. People seem to think it's because of the divorce. Or it's because I stepped down as the "CEO" of Camille Cosmetics. But it's none of those things. I've just been working out a lot. That's the only reason."A lot of gym." I say flatly and step aside as they walk in.Liam and Lucille, on the other hand, look very very happy. They can't stop hugging and kissing and giggling and teasing each other. They are so inlove it makes me jealous. Vanessa walks down the stairs, dressed in a white tight dress that makes her look stunning. She's wearing heels which I find a little dramatic. What's the point of high heels when you have a casual in

My favourite part of the morning is digging my hand in his soft messy hair. But I can't find his head. I can't find his body. His side of the bed is empty.He must be downstairs, making breakfast. I smile at the thought of him making breakfast for me. I sit up on the bed and start stretching, ready to make a quick trip downstairs.I gasp in shock when I see Damien, sitting on the couch. A cold dead stare on his face."Is it Halloween?" I chuckle. "You scared the shìt out of me.""Did you kill my sister?" He asks coldly.My stomach clenches.How the fùck did he know? Did Dani tell him? No, Dani couldn't have told him. She knows that he wouldn't believe him. They don't even talk to each other anymore after the divorce was finalised. He blocked her number and completely forgot about her. There's no way it's

It's one of the prizes that came with winning the contest. Along with five hundred thousand dollars, a nice benz and a huge house. It's been the craziest week of my life and I still can't believe that I won the contest. It all feels like a fùcking dream.Nate drops the bags on the floor and sits across from me. He starts digging into his chicken and I freeze for a moment, staring at him in awe."Why are you looking at me like that?" He throws a fry at me, chuckling. "Creep.""Be my boyfriend." I blurt out.He's surprised. And I'm surprised. But I don't regret saying it. I want Nate to be my boyfriend. He's all I've been thinking about since I won the contest.If it wasn't for this man, I wouldn't have applied for that contest. I didn't even think I had the qualifications but he believed in me.

    DAMIENThe car stops outside a blue sparkling skyscraper.When I step out of the car, I immediately recognise the hotel. The Blue Towers Hotel. Vanessa takes my hand as we walk towards the revolving glass doors. I wonder why she picked this particular spot for our date night. It's too far from home. We literally drove two hours to get here. And it's too crowded. There's too many people coming in and out. Since I moved away from the city, I hate crowded or busy places. They make me uncomfortable. And the second we get into the crowded elevator, I immediately know that it's going to be a long uncomfortable night.When we step out of the elevator, Vanessa grips my hand tight as we walk to a crowded room. Dozens of people in dashing suits and dresses are walking around with glasses clutched in their hands. One of the first things that grab my attention is the huge poster of a blue book with the title "ROONEY RUINED ME." There's also another huge poster of the author but I already know w

    DAMIENtwenty years laterIt's our twentieth anniversary.For every anniversary, we celebrate it in Bali. In the same hotel we went for our first, second and third honeymoon. There's been a lot of changes and renovations in the hotel over the years but it still gives me a feeling of nostalgia every time I come here.I step out of the shower and start drying myself with the towel.Dani is busy typing on her laptop. I apply some lotion and slide into a pair of white shorts. My wife doesn't bother to look up."George filed for divorce." I huff. "Gina cheated on him again. This time, with a younger man.""Not surprised." I sigh. "Why can't he just leave her?""He's addicted to the toxicity."Dani doesn't respond. She's still busy on her laptop. Plus, she's so over George and Gina. And honestly, so am I. For years, I wanted to save George from that abusive marriage but he clearly doesn't want to be saved. He made the bed. I'll just let him lie in it. Even if it's a bed of thorns that makes

    DANII stare at Nate in shock.But he's not staring at me. He's staring at Damien."When Dani's dad shot me, I was paralysed." Nate says. "I could see everything. I could hear everything. But I couldn't move. I couldn't even feel blood oozing from my body."Okay, where's this going?"Dani was in shock after her father shot himself infront of her." He continues. "She just sat there, staring at his lifeless body. She was in shock and despair. She had lost all hope for life. That's until you came out of nowhere and wrapped your arms around her, crying. She was relieved. She was hopeful again. I was relieved too. And I was hopeful. That's when I allowed myself to pass out. All that time, I'd been forcing myself to hold on a little longer for Dani. I didn't want to leave her all alone and scared. But when you showed up, I knew she was in safe hands. So l let myself pass out."Nate finally turns to look at me, a small smile forming on his face."Remember that double date with Richard and yo

    DAMIENI ring the doorbell.Dani swings the door open, dressed in her pajamas. She stares at me in complete shock and confusion."What are you doing here?" She asks in concern. "Are you okay?"I don't reply to that. I just pull her in my arms and cling to her body. I know she's pregnant and I'm probably hurting her baby but the baby will have to forgive me. I need his mother now. He can wait.Dani escorts me to the livingroom. She sneaks to the kitchen and brings me coffee. Yes, I definitely need coffee this time. I'm shaking due to the cold. Or maybe I'm shaking due to the shock. It's been a night of horror and I can't wait for it to end."What's going on, Damien?" Dani asks softly. "Where's Vanessa?"Just hearing her name sends chills all over my body. I look up at the ticking clock.The images of the last three hours play vividly in my head.Vanessa screaming in terror. Vanessa's head being chopped off. Vanessa's head being tossed in a black plastic bag like garbage. The "bad guys

You might be losing it inside, but don't show them. Act calm. Act confident.I turn to look at Damien.Ofcourse I'm shocked. And confused. He just jumped out of the kitchen. He was listening to the conversation this entire time. I should have listened to my gut when I entered the house.I got a whiff of his cologne when I entered the living room. Then I got a glance of his shoes at the door. But somehow, I convinced myself that they didn't belong to Damien. A bunch of shoes look the same. And there's no way they belonged to Damien. I mean, I left him home looking hungry and exhausted. There's no way he could drive back to the city for two hours instead of taking a rest. God, I was in for a shock!But I'm still calm. "Babe." I smile. "You know I hate surprises.""Don't babe me!" He snaps. "I heard everything you just said,

    DAMIENI dash into the kitchen and pour all the coffee in the sink.I don't want coffee. I want something stronger. Something like scotch. Something that will make me forget about my dad. And Vanessa. And the pregnancy scam. And the whole drug dealing thing. And the way I just talked to Dani. And the way she looked at me. All I do is hurt her with my words and actions. And all she does is be kind and nice to me. After everything I did, she's letting me spend the night at her house. God, I don't deserve her...It's pouring heavily outside.I look outside, the rain beating down on the roof and sliding down the window. For a moment there, I wish that the rain could wash away all the pain. I wish that the rain could slide down my soul and wash away all the sadness and sorrow. The doorbell rings, pulling me away from the sea of sad thoughts."Good evening, Dani." I grit my teeth when I hear that familiar voice. Vanessa. What the fùck is she doing here? How the fùck did she know that I wa

    DANIDamien is standing at my door when I get home from the hospital.The second he sees me, he runs to me and our bodies clash in a tight embrace. He starts crying in my arms. And I start crying in his arms. And now we're crying in each other's arms. I don't even know why I'm crying. But I definitely know why he's crying.He lost his father. A father that he deeply loved. And today he lay his father to rest. That's hard on anyone.The sky rumbles. We break apart and silently walk into the house before it starts raining. Damien takes off his shoes and sits on the couch. I take off my black coat and sneak to the kitchen. There, I make coffee and grab some cookies from the pantry. Damien looks like he needs something stronger than coffee but it's the best choice for now. "Thankyou." He smiles when I set the tray of coffee and cookies on the table.I sit across from him, creating some distance between us. I'm just from seeing Nate in the hospital and we even kissed when I left.

    DAMIENThe ride home was silent.Two hours on the road with Vanessa sulking and seething and staring at me, her eyes filled with fury.The second I stop the engine, she flies out of the car and storms into the house. I follow her quickly but I can't keep up with her pace. When I walk into the house, she's already flying up the stairs.Maria steps out of the kitchen with a bunch of sandwiches on the tray."Spill the tea." She giggles. "Why is she so mad this time? What happened at the funeral?""Nothing interesting." I shrug.That's my way of brushing Maria off. Although I like her, she can be a little nosy in a way that's annoying and steps on boundaries. Vanessa is still the mother of my child. She's just a surrogate. Sometimes I think that Maria forgets that. Vanessa can be a pain in the àss but she still deserves respect as the biological mother of my child."Want a sandwich?" She offers."Sure." I grab it. "I'm starving!"I run up the stairs, chewing on the sandwich as I head to o

    DANICamille's mansion was the perfect pick for the reception after the funeral.The guests are waltzing around the large livingroom, cups of coffee clutched in their hands. A bunch of bowls are sitting at the dining table with cookies and biscuits and even chocolates.I'm sitting on the couch next to Camille, munching on the crunchy cookies. Her face is blank and void of emotion but I know that deep down, she's having an emotional crisis. A few hours ago, she broke down as her husband was put to the ground. I can't imagine what that felt like for her. Spending half of your life with someone and then having to watch their lifeless bodies being lowered to the ground. Tragic."Look at them!" Camille points to Damien and Vanessa. "She's always complaining about something. They should break up already."They seem like they are fighting. Vanessa is nagging about something. And Damien is glaring at her. They are obviously the unhappiest couple in the room. I get a little thrill watching the

    DAMIENVanessa slides into her black heels and walks towards me.She stands so close, looking up at me. There's a blank look on her face and it's kinda creepy. She straightens my collar and starts fixing my black tie."I'm going to ask you something and I want you to be completely honest with me."The cold tone in her voice sends shivers down my spine. She's not been speaking to me the entire morning. I thought it was odd but chose not to overthink it. I thought it's because we were both busy getting ready for the funeral. I thought maybe she's giving me some space and silence because this is the day that I lay my dad to the ground. From the tone of her voice, that's clearly not the case. She's mad at me. And from the way she's playing with this tie, I might end up getting strangled if I don't provide the answer that she wants. And that makes my heart start racing."Have you been fùcking Dani?"I can't help but laugh. I thought it was something serious. Something that was going to be
