CLARAMy holiday to Canada wasn't over yet.Diego took me out shopping in one of the nicest store in the country, giving me the go ahead to get whatever I want.I felt thrilled when I heard him, but needed to be sure he meant what he said."Are you sure I can take whatever I want?" I asked, taking hold of an expensive diamond necklace, just to mess with Diego. Mr grumpy was busy attending to his phone until I called his attention and asked, "So, you don't mind if I take this?"He looked at me and gave a smirk."Is that what you want?" He asked, gazing into my eyes.I felt a flush across my cheek as I gently dropped the diamond necklace, saying, " I was just asking, since you said I can have whatever I want.""Are you scared of me? Do you think it's a trick?" He asked, stepping closer to me.I hate to admit this, but I like whenever he makes his approach at me.I bet if we were alone, I would have melted right before him. But we're in public and I feel more like my old self.I stood u

DIEGO"Great work, Mr Smith."My business partners shook hands with me after our meeting came to an end."Let me see you off," I offered, leading the way out of the conference room.I escorted my business partners to the parking lot with my secretary, wishing them all a safe journey to their respected destination. Once they were gone, my secretary said, gaining my attention, "Sir, I didn't know that lady was your step sister.""Hmm. Now you know," I said, turning around, heading for the company."When she came that day, I thought she was among those nasty girls that always come to see you, " She kept talking, drawing nearer to me from behind.I could tell how close she was through the tone of her voice."What girls are you talking about?" I questioned, facing her with a glare.Her mouth came shunned at once, with her head lowering down.I know exactly what she's talking about, and I don't appreciate such nonsense."My apologies, Mr Smith, " She apologized."Keep your thoughts and rub

DIEGOAnother day to head to the office.My secretary just called, informing me about the arrival of a foreign client from Japan.Not wanting to delay, I made my way down the stairs, just to find Clara waiting for me.I thought she had gone already, since today was her last exam, but she's still around."Why aren't you on your way to school?" I asked, getting closer to her point where she stood.Clara shrugged and said, " I thought I should wait for you. Maybe if you could drop me off instead of a guard.""And you think I have time to take you to school and then to my office?" I lifted my brow at her."You do that sometimes, so yeah. You should have time. " She crossed her arms at me, acting like it's my responsibility to attend to her needs.Well, I don't blame her for being this way. I'm the one who made the suggestion to her mother, that I could watch over her till she's back from Italy with my father."No," I refused her, walking pass Clara."Come on! I need you to drop me off at

DIEGO"Love? Did I hear you say you love Carla?"I refused to believe the nonsense Pedro was telling me.He better not give me that shit."Look, I'm sorry for how I started out, okay? It's just that I was mad and upset with the way things are going," He said, leaning against my desk."I still love Carla, Diego. I still love that girl.""Don't tell me that nonsense, Pedro. You and I know very well that the word love mean nothing to you.""I still remember the day you introduced Carla to me as your girlfriend. You still went out with me that same day to have fun with some bitches at the bar. What about the day she called you to come see her Mom?""Diego.""You were standing next to me and you lied to her that you were busy with your father. Do you still want me to go on?""I'm dead serious, Diego. I really love, Carla," He defended."I don't believe you, Pedro. If you really loved her, then you wouldn't be messing with Jessica at the hotel the night Carla caught you," I revealed.Pedro

DIEGOEvening finally came. I stepped out of my room heading for the dining, only to find the room empty of Carla.I assumed she was still in her bedroom, getting ready to join me for dinner, but she didn't step out for fifteen minutes after my arrival."Have you called her?" I asked one of the maids that stood next to me.She looked towards the entrance, responding to my question, " I did call her, Sir. But she said she's not hungry.""Not hungry?""Yes sir," She answered.It was obvious that Carla was doing this just to ignore me, all because of what I said in the morning.With a sigh, I got off my seat and exited the dining room to meet her.I was about making my way up the stairs when I spotted Carla, near the living room, heading into another path."She was there all these time?" I carefully distanced myself from the stairs, going after Carla to speak to her."Yes, I made her upset with my words, but it doesn't mean she'd pass that anger to her meal," I groaned, following her fro

CARLA"I'll have the chicken specialty and chips," I placed my order while handing the menu back to the waiter at the outdoor eatery."Sure. I'll get that ready for you," He assured me before walking away.I sat comfortably on my stool, looking at other customers, who were attended to by other waiters, before taking my attention right behind to look for Diego.His car was gone, meaning he left already."I bet he has gone to the fancy eatery of his choice," I scoffed, rolling my eyes while facing forward."Does he think everything that doesn't appear fancy means low class? What an asshole."I had my arms crossed while waiting for my order. My eyes kept going to the same spot on the road, where Diego's car had parked earlier.I was beginning to feel lonely."All he had to do was say Yes and join me. Why do I care anyways? When he's done with his fancy meal, he better come and get me," I groaned, feeling upset with Diego.Just when I turned over to face my table, my entire body came shiv

DIEGOThe moment I held her by the arms, that same tingling vibe I always get around her, came streaming into my body.I felt my body shiver when she looked at me into the eyes. Those innocent blue eyes shimmered in the dark like diamond.My lips slowly came open as she asked, "Sorry for doing your brotherly duty?."I know it sounded weird but I wanted her to understand me."Em, well..." My hands came off her, reaching for the back of my neck."What I meant was that... I... Damn," I groaned at my inability to speak properly before Carla.This isn't like me. I know how I'd speak especially in front of her, but now it's totally different.I saw how she stared at me confusingly, and I didn't want her seeing me as a weirdo.That's not who I am.I cleared my throat and said with seriousness all over my face, " Look, since you're going to be my sister, I feel it's best if I take my time and carry out my role as your brother, so you won't end up regretting later on."I managed to drop my gaz

DIEGOI recognize Pedro's number anywhere. This is actually his second line which he rarely uses.It was clear that Carla doesn't have it."She must have blocked the other line so he can't reach her. Now he's using this to contact her," I viewed, staring at his number as it kept calling Carla's phone.The sight of this took my mind to our encounter at my office.The words he brought out from his mouth, claiming he still loves Carla, after everything he did to her.But that word Love coming from Pedro..."I want to forget about him," Carla's hurtful tone came into me, reminding me of the day she was in pain because of that asshole."He's stupid if he thinks I'll allow him back into her life after what he has done," I groaned.Hearing it ring the second time, I immediately declined the call and blocked Pedro's number from reaching Carla again."I've made a promise to keep you away from Carla, and I'll stick to that," I vowed, heading to my room.The next morning, I was standing next to
