Cassius drank a lot.He did not intend to drink many, but he only realized that he’s tipsy when he had difficult time focusing on things around him. Well, unlike Zion, who stumbled and fidgeted as he went back to his own condominium.Cassius slumped down on his bed. He did not forget to drink honey water, and so, he felt a bit better than before.Staring at nothing, Cassius recalled what Zion told him just a moment ago.[“I will do anything to make her fall in love with me again; away from you.”] He cannot blame Zion for saying that and for trying to make him angry. Between them, Zion spent more time with Harriet. He’s been in love with her for a long time, that he didn’t notice his feelings. And that is Zion’s fault.‘He has lot of time to discover his feelings,’ Cassius complained.Sure, Zion felt betrayed that his cousin fell in love with the same woman. But was it really Cassius’ fault that he fell for the woman whom he felt guity for ever since his young?Cassius sighed.He did
Cassius and Harriet went to visit a convenience store near the condominium building. They are sitting on the chairs outside the store, with round table between them and a huge umbrella above. It’s already 9:30 in the evening. During this hour, there are less people in the street. Perhaps because the convenience store isn’t on the main street that’s why it’s quiet there. The two of them cannot go back to the condominium because they are both afraid that Zion might come to visit Cassius. Well, they didn’t tell this to each other but they thought the same. After Harriet confessed her feelings, they felt suddenly awkward to each other. It was hard to think of topic to say. But while sitting and holding their hands, they fell happy and contented. Oh how they wish that time would stop and the night became longer than usual. “Ahmmm,” Cassius murmured. Harriet shyly stared at him. “Hmm?” “Well, ahhh,” he awkwardly uttered. “You said before that you were so hungry. Did you eat a lot i
When Harriet finished her simple dinner in the convenience store, they decided right away where to go next. It’s obvious that the two of them don’t want to go home. The night will be long, just like what they wished. As they want to watch movie together, Cassius suggested to visit the movie theatre that he found recently. He said that the place is still open until 4am. To go in the place, they ride Harriet’s car with her driver to accompany them. “How did you know the theatre?” Harriet asked. “When I going out by myself, I found it by chance,” Cassius answered. “That’s cool. Who knows that someone like you who came from abroad knows a lot around the place more than me?” “Maybe because I love watching movies.” “Don’t lie. You said you only watch animal documentaries.” Cassius avoided her gaze. Thinly narrowing her eyes, Harriet asked, “Don’t tell me that you also watch documentaries in the cinema?” Cassius coughed and then looked at the road. “We’re still far.” All of sudde
When Harriet was working as the Chairman’s secretary, she had no time to relax and watch movies. But if she had spare time, she watched movies inside her room. Rather than having a long drive just to visit a movie theatre, Harriet prefers staying in her room and curl into a nice little ball on her bed, then pass out to a good movie.However, tonight will be different.This is her real first date with Cassius, so, a movie date in a theatre isn’t a bad thing. Besides, if the two of them are alone in Cassius’ condo, Harriet feared that something would happen between them and that is very dangerous.She’s not conservative in that area but they are just new couple. True, they dates numerous time. However, those dates aren’t real. She was sincere whenever she’s with him, but as Cassius’ real girlfriend, she wanted their first date to be sweet and innocent.‘How dare I to wish something innocent when we already kiss that deep inside the car?’ Harriet interrogated her conscience.Harriet was
It’s already morning when Cassius went back to his condominium. After taking a quick shower, he went to his bed and stared at the ceiling for a long time. He’s sober. He drank lot of beers before but now he’s completely sobered. Yet, when he recalled the kisses he had with Harriet, he felt as if he’s getting drunk again. He held his lips, recalling how much soft Harriet’s lips, and how sweet her tongue was. The corners of his mouth stretched upwards. He’s chuckling as he grabbed his pillow. He hugged it, buried his reddened face on it and then stomped on his feet. He’s aware he’s acting like a child right now. But he does not care. He could not explain how happy he is now that he and Harriet are dating. Panting, he pulled down the pillow and looked at nothing. He closed his eyes and recalled the moment when Harriet confessed her feelings. Cassius knew more than anyone else how much Harriet loved Zion. Therefore, he’s okay even if he needs to wait for a long time. When he was
Harriet recalled how Reese reacted when she told her about the party when Astell will introduce her as the second daughter of the Wyatt family. Reese said that she cannot do anything if Marie wouldn’t wake up. That’s why Harriet said that it will be a problem if Marie is still unconscious before the party. It is to get a clue whether Reese regained all her memories from the future or not. If Reese did not get all her memories back, then she would postpone the party. She will hesitate what to do so she will plan first and wait. But, if Reese is aware of everything that happened and will happen, and that Harriet changed, she wouldn’t postpone the party. Instead, during the three weeks, Reese would work to get rid of Marie and Harriet. Because the two of them know everything. ‘Reese knew I am her enemy,’ Harriet said to herself while looking out of the window of the car. “Miss, we cannot park in front of the store. It’s walkway,” the guard said while driving the car on the side. Har
Madell won’t ever accept that she and her mother got humiliated by her father’s mistress. Although Elona declined the accusation and said that she has another boyfriend, Madell did not believe the lie. She is so certain that Elona is her father’s mistress and that she should teach her a lesson. ‘I can’t believe that mom already surrendered.’ Madell knew how obsess her mom to her father. Everyone in the mansion knows that, ever since Sherly threatened Finn that she will kill herself if her husband go overseas for work. An obsess woman won’t let a mistress away as easy as this. Though Madell has no idea what would Sherly do in the future, she felt the responsibility of dealing it in her own way. Her ways are chaotic. Everyone warned her about this. But Madell would always close her ears and ignored those helpful words. That is why, Madell decided to go back to the boutique with the help of her friends. When she said friends, she’s talking about the three girls whom she fooled
Madell dashed out outside of Elona shop while catching her breath. She felt dizzy and hot, as if her soul was burning in the pit of fire. The people around looks nothing but shadows, not human being but matters filling the space.Usually, Madell walks with guard beside her. But she stopped requesting one to assist her ever since she started to intake dr*gs. She can threaten the guard. But at the end of the day, the guard is on her family’s side. Once her grandfather and father finds this out, she will be sent to rehabilitation center.Because she cannot stop it. She’s addicted to it.Madell ran towards the narrow alleyway. She leaned her hand on the wall while the other hand grabbed the dr*g from her pocket. Trembling, Madell took the medicine. Her cheeks turned red and her eyebrows narrowed.But the moment she took the dr*g, her mind became clearer and at peace. Staring at the nothingness, she remembered how Elona and Harriet humiliated her in front of everyone.She clenched her fist
