CARLA"Girlfriend? Tell me you're joking, Pedro?" Jessica demanded, showing her displeasure to the sudden news from Pedro.But Pedro proved he wasn't.His arm came cupping my waist before all, leaving a strange feeling engulfing my heart.Jessica's eyes widened at the sight of this."You heard me right. Carla and I are back together," He repeated.But Jessica wouldn't budge."Shut up! Just shut up!" She yelled out at Pedro."You are lying! I am your girlfriend! This... This..."She faced me and gave out a growl like a raging beast."You bitch! You stole my boyfriend!" She yelled out, charging at me with speed.Jessica came throwing her arms at me, trying to scratch my face with her nails. But Pedro was quick to protect me.He immediately pulled me back, grabbing Jessica away from me."Jessica!" He yelled at her, dragging her back, but she kept shouting, calling me names."Whore! Your secret lover couldn't satisfy you so you came crawling back to my boyfriend! You are a slut!" Her wor
CARLAI felt frozen just staring at Diego, who stood outside the door, looking back at me.He looked like one who was astonished to see me after that day at the engagement party.But his eyes came dimming in a broad and displeased way.He was glaring at me with his gaze lingering on my body from head to toe.When I saw this, I immediately remembered I was putting on a short and singlet. That got me feeling embarrassed, stepping back with my right arm going against my chest, shielding it from his eyes."Oh, Carla. I didn't know you were joining us. How are you?" Mr Smith, who happened to be behind Diego, came into the house, smiling at me."Great. I'm doing just fine," I answered, trying not to look at Diego.He just stepped into the house like I didn't exist, making his way to my Mom, who came out from the dining to welcome them."Oh goody! You made it Diego. How was the office?" Mom asked, giving Diego a hug."The usual," He responded to her.I was still feeling uncomfortable with t
CARLA"Oh, Diego. What a surprise to see you here," Pedro said, lifting his hand to give a wave at Diego, who stood right next to me.I could feel tension brewing in the room when I looked at Diego. His face sent chills down my spine, watching how he stared back at Pedro like he's looking directly at the devil himself."Is that Pedro?" I heard Mr Smith ask, stepping out from the dinning into the living room.When he came into the room, Pedro immediately made himself known to Mr Smith, greeting him with respect."It's nice to see you again, Mr Smith," He said with a smile across his face."I knew I heard your voice. How are you?" Mr Smith walked up to Pedro to welcome him.I had my eyes looking at both men, greeting themselves respectfully, when something triggered my mind, reminding me of the one beside me."Diego." I turned to look at my left hand side and found him staring at me.His gaze like a thousand dagger darting right at me.I felt my heart skip uncomfortably, as I tried to s
DIEGOI had nothing but anger in my heart after witnessing that scene at the dinning table.Pedro was clearly on his knee proposing to Carla.I felt an urge to stop this but my rage got the best of me, leading my hand into a bloody pool.All that anger came fading after staring into Carla's wet eyes.She's hurt over my action and demeanor in ignoring her, all because of her decision to return back to Pedro.I tried to wipe the feeling rising in me, but I couldn't.Feeling upset after she ran back into the house, I furiously got into my car and drove off, trying to use my good hand to head homehome safely.The drama at the dining kept replaying in my head."For heaven sake, why won't it go?!" I roared, driving with speed.I could hear my phone ringing from my pocket while I was driving.I was sure it was my father trying to call me after I left without his knowledge."This is why I didn't want to come, but he kept insisting that I show up because of Mrs Parker. He lied to me that Carla
DIEGOPedro had Carla in his hold, taking her around to introduce her to the people, as his girlfriend.Carla, who was following him about, had smiles across her face, shaking hands with those she was being introduced to.I couldn't take my eyes from her after seeing she was present at the celebration meant for me.Wasn't expecting her to come, not even Pedro."Did his father send him as his representative?" I rolled my eyes, taking my attention off them but not my entire mind from Carla."I didn't know that his friend was dating his sister. This is really nice.""Isn't this lovely? ""You have to admit it, they both look beautiful."I heard them saying from behind, praising and admiring both Carla and Pedro's togetherness.It only got me disgusted, sending my attention elsewhere."Oh, here they come!" I heard someone say, notifying me of how near they were."Diego," I heard Pedro call my name.I turned around to look at him, finding Carla clinging to his arm like a doll.She lowered
DIEGOI stared out to the path Carla took, leaving me behind. My mind replaying what she just did. I could still feel the impact all over me.I came back to my sense, feeling rage taking over, all because of Carla's action. And with anger, I stormed out of the penthouse, making my way through the party crowds."Mr Smith! Hey! Are you leaving?!" A voice that sounded like the celebrant, called out from behind. But I stayed deaf to it, walking away to my car.Once I got in, I took one more look at the party and spotted Carla with Pedro. She held him close, joining him in his craziness with a smile across her face.My blood came rising to this, sending me starting the engine of my car and driving off at once.Along the busy road, I drove off with speed reminiscing on what Carla just did."She pushed me away. She..." I groaned, driving with full speed, with Carla's words and face appearing in my head."All because of Pedro, she chose to act that way with me?!"My anger almost got the bes
DIEGO"She can't be here, " I doubted, stepping into my office while shutting the door behind me.Carla remained at the window, staring outside all lost. But the moment the door came closed, She slowly turned her head over to look at me. Her face glowed brightly with a curve spreading across her lips.She carefully stepped away from the window, approaching my point.Seeing this, I had no choice but to accept what I was seeing before me."What are you doing here?" I asked, also approaching her.She said nothing to me, but just drew closer before coming to a stop halfway.I kept drawing nearer, almost taking her by the waist when Carla suddenly began to giggle at me, stepping backwards.This got me even closer, calling her name."Carla.""You look adorable when you're lost up there," She pointed at my head laughing, turning around and heading back to the window.I immediately rushed up to her, almost taking her by the hand, when Carla suddenly vanished before my very eyes."She's not r
DIEGOStubborn, annoying, rude... That is how I've always seen Carla from the start.But yet, that same lady successfully stole my heart among others.She was able to tame my hard heart.I've been with so many ladies, slept with them, and even dumped them like they were nothing.They just wanted my money and my body, and that gave me a clear view of how women are these days. Weak, Greedy, and Useless. But after that night at Mrs Parker's home with Carla, I felt a desire to have Carla's body over and over again.She wasn't like the others. She just didn't want to be around me, and that only increased my desire to get her attention more and more.But little did I know I was paving a way for Carla in my heart.I kept taking her as a naughty lady who's going to be my sister soon, but that night we stayed together in my room, with her in my arms, I discovered my true feelings for her.I realized how much I love Carla and didn't want to let her go.I love her so much."I want you in my li
