2024-10-29 19:42:56'Sometimes the most productive thing that you can do is sleep,'
I always abide by this quote which I once founded in Google and was so impressed that I wrote it down on a chart paper with red and black marker and pasted it on the display board in my room.
For someone like me who needs almost ten to eleven hours of sleep, the idea of getting up at six in the morning after going to bed at two is almost like capital punishment and today being Sunday makes the situation doubly dreadful.
"F**k you!" I shouted at my cellphone, the reason why I have to open my eyes just at the moment when I was about to hug Sam Claflin. It was weird. How was I so obsessed with him?
Hello my lovely readers! Happy Sunday! Here's the next update! I hope you are enjoying the story so far. Thank you for subscribing and the views! It means a lot! Enjoy!

"Yes sir, I apologize to you but Mr. McKinnon had to leave on very short notice for Chicago. Something really important came up...," I grumbled on the phone when Hannah stumbled into my office looking as radiant as ever.I placed out my index finger as a gesture to wait one moment and she nodded, settling down on Sandy's desk."Yeah, he will be back on Friday and I will reschedule your meeting among the most urgent priorities. Yes, thank you. Have a good day sir," I cut the call and sighed."Too much, isn't it?" Hannah said, giving me a wry smile."How does he handle all these?" I muttered. "I would have gone nuts if I was in his place,""It's Liam after all," Hannah said, her voice brimming with pride

Everything was changed. There was no longer a fifteen-year-old kid with blonde hairs almost reaching his eyes and a face of exquisite innocence. Instead, sitting in front of me was a guy who at the moment can kill me with his bare hands. Probably two or three inches taller, his face looked rugged with the overgrown unkempt beard and deep lines covered his forehead. He looked beaten yet so strong that it took me a moment to realize that he was my brother. Where was my brother? "Hello brother," Neil exclaimed smugly in his deep voice. "Grab a seat,"

Sofia "We need to start packing so that we could move by Saturday. Can you take the day off?" Kristen demanded as we waited for the bustling morning traffic to subside. "Probably," I replied. "Hey, a**hole move your bloody car!" I shouted at the Chevrolet driver in front of me. "Jesus, easy!" Kristen said. "Why are you in such a hurry today?" "I am bloody late," I replied. "Liam returns today, it's going to be a very tight schedule and I am already ten minutes late! Imagine him getting to the office before me! I will be doomed!"

It felt like I was caught cheating and now I don't have any possibly good excuse to get out of this fix. I have never cheated during exams so I don't know how to get out of such a situation. And neither did I know how to get out of this one."Liam...," I started but he placed out his palm, clearly shutting me off."Not here," He muttered and out of the blue grabbed my wrist swiftly.We crossed the road and Liam almost dragged me up to the parking of our office which was deserted except for a few cars still parked."Ouch!" I groaned as he released me and started running his hand through his hair. I eyed my wrist and they had gone red with marks of his fingers on my pale skin."Lunch?" Liam asked c

3 months later... People say that time can heal everything, right? Wrong. Three months was quite a long time but instead of healing things back to normal, time has ruined things even more for me. In fiction, phenomenal things can happen in three months. I mean, it merely took a day at the most for Prince Charming to find out Cinderella with the help of a glass slipper and a few seconds of the kiss was enough to revive Snow white from her stepmother's curse. So, the bottom line was that time...yes time can make phenomenal things happen in the fictional and fantasy world but in reality, this is what happens... Ever since that shit

My stomach began to churn as I took in my surroundings. People. So many people. Each one was crucial to the company. What if something goes wrong? "Soaf?" Kris called, tapping on my shoulder. "Are you alright? You look like you will throw up right here," "No, no I am not alright," I nodded sullenly. "I am so damn scared. These people are so important. What if anything goes wrong? Liam warned me that I will have to face the consequences if something happens," "Nothing is going to happen," Kris assured. "Your job was to ensure that everything is perfect and that it is. Now if God forbid anything goes wrong that's not your fault. And what is the worst thing that Liam can do? Fire you? Well, screw him," "Look, if something was wrong Sandy would have called

Liam How in heaven's name can anyone be this obstinate? I grimaced with anger as I saw Sofia getting into the elevator with Justin. Was she nuts or what? And now I don't know where that asshole has taken her. Perfect. "We need to find Sofia," I said to Sean urgently as soon as the dance was over. "I saw her walk away with Justin," "Then why didn't you stopped her ?" Kristen muttered. "That stupid girl," "I was going to but it was too late," I replied ginge

Liam 3 years later... I stared at the woman in front of me as she stood there explaining some weird-looking painting to her precious visitors. Every time I looked at her, I was overwhelmed by my love for her. There was no way I could ever get enough. She was my life. She was my existence. She was my wife. My Sofia... She was glowing as she subconsciously turned to look at me, a big smile on her beautiful face. I don't think I have ever seen her this happy. Maybe, when I proposed to her? No maybe not even then... It was the happiness of her dreams coming true. This was what she always wanted. What drove her here in the first

Sofia I smiled at the woman who stared back at me from the other side of the large ornate mirror. She looked happy and beautiful. And her wide grin got wider as she was joined by the man of her dreams leaning casually by the door. "How do I look?" I asked, turning to face him. I gave him an elegant twirl in my breathtakingly beautiful dress and he smiled. "Like always," He replied. "I didn't search the entire New York to look like always," I scowled. Tonight was a big night. Tonight, Mckinnons was celebrating its 25th anniversary and it was going to be a big starry affair. And tonight, Neil was going to be announced as the managing director of Mckinnons after three month

Liam "Death is not the opposite of life... It's a part of life..." -Haruki Murakami Unlike what is shown in movies and written in books, I somehow realized how easy and painless death was. Survival was hard. For death, all you have to do is make one single decision and all your agony and pain fades but survival...that's a whole different game. And if it wasn't for the promise I made to her and if it wasn't her voice calling me again and again I would have definitely taken the easy road. At least once, I deserved to take it easy but I couldn't, I didn't because I don't have the right to put her in a lifetime of misery or my parents or my

"It's been six days!" I cried in disdain. "What is happening?" "Ms. Sayles," Dr. Burke warned. "Please calm down!" "Calm down?" I spat. "Not exactly my forte, doc," "Sofia," My mother placed a warning hand on my shoulder. "Let him do his job," I glared at my mother and then at the doctor and then sighed. "Fine," I muttered, stomping out of Liam's inpatient suite. "You need to calm down," Mom muttered. "Go home Sofia, have you even looked at yourself?" "I don't care," I grumbled. It's been six days since Liam was operated... twice. The idea that I almost lost him that night because of severe internal bleed

You know you irrevocably love someone when the thought of losing them makes you forget how to breathe. The fear that gripped me as I watched Liam collapse on the ground was something, I realized I will never forget in my life. Ever. It was going to haunt me for the rest of my life like a scar... reminding me of the momentary coma I just experienced. Move you, idiot! And I did, forcing myself to move forward, running full speed towards him before his head hit the ground and cause any more damage. Neil lurched forward as well... too shocked to show any other reaction. From the distance, we could hear the sirens of the police car approaching...but what if they were too late? "Hey!" I cried, stroking Liam's hair as he took deep labored breathes. B

Thump! Thump! Thump! We were running like mad people in the rain. Nobody said anything. We were just running. Neil was holding my hand so hard that it almost hurt but I couldn't dare leave it. If I get lost here I was screwed for good. So I let him half drag me through the woods. The rain made it impossible to focus as the green mixed with the brown, making it hard to distinguish between anything at all. My mind was crazy with exhilaration and I couldn't focus until my leg hit a huge rock and I stumbled to the ground, landing hard on my knees. "Ouch!" I cried out as pain shot through my body. "Fuck! " Neil cried, helping me up. "Are you alright?" "I am fine!" I panted. "Keep going!"

"Sofia! Sofia, get up!" Neil's voice was urgent and I reluctantly opened my eyes. "What?" I muttered. "Theo is here to see you," He said in a hushed voice. "Now...please... please... please, don't say anything stupid, okay? Just do what he says? You understand?" "Right," I scoffed, sitting up properly. It was dark outside now and I presumed I had fallen asleep. Before Neil could say anything, footsteps approached and the door opened. "Please," Neil whispered and I scowled at him. "There...there," A voice said, it was calm. Almost peaceful...yet a chill ran down my spine. Neil moved and I was face to face with a guy not more than thirty years old. When I

I was feeling pissed. It was late in the afternoon and after my failed attempt to make Neil realize he was better than the douchebag he pretends to be, he has stopped talking completely. It was hot and humid and I was sitting in the same position in the same place for God knows how long. I felt grimy, stiff, and angry. I glanced out of the little window and all I could see was trees. Huge trees for as long as I was allowed to see. Outside, I could hear laughing and cursing, the smell of cigarettes and alcohol.And to think Neil is the son of Ryan Mckinnon...Ideally, I closed my eyes and began to picture Liam's face in my head. My family...what were they doing? Do they know? Sean...Hannah...Kris... what were they doing right now?"Sleeping already?" Neil's familiar voice distracted me.

Sofia My eyes felt like someone has tied heavy stones to them as I struggled to open them. My head felt heavy and there was a funny smell lingering in my nostrils. I blinked twice... thrice in a vain attempt to push away the heaviness but it was just useless. I felt sleepy like I haven't slept in ages and automatically my eyes shut down again making everything go dark. It was too bright and warm... I felt droplets of sweat dripping down my back and my mouth felt slack. "Water," I
