"Hey there!" Drex came after me, calling out to get my attention. I quickened my pace, hoping to lose him, but he shouted my name loudly, drawing the attention of passersby. To avoid further commotion, I reluctantly stopped walking.

"Hey!" He finally caught up with me.

'What?' I asked, my tone harsh.

'I just wanted to ask what you were doing at my girlfriend's room,' he inquired.

Wait, that girl was his girlfriend? I thought she was with that other cute guy. I decided to keep my thoughts to myself.

'Well, I came looking for you, but you weren't there, so she told me to wait for you,' I explained.

'Why were you arrested again?' I remembered he was in a Spiderman suit and almost burst into laughter when I thought about it, but he gave me a knowing look, so I managed to hold it in.

'Okay, I came to Singapore to meet my family but came especially today because today is her birthday. I thought I'd surprise her, but she was asleep when I got to her bedroom window. That was when the officers thought I was breaking in and arrested me,' he explained.

Wait, I was the girl sleeping there.

'Will you help me find her?' He asked.

'No, I gotta go home,' I replied.

'Oh, come on. I saw on your address you live really far from here, and it's getting late. Why don't you stay the night at her place when we find her?' He offered. 'Plus, I have to change from this suit,' he said, looking slightly embarrassed.

'Yeah, you kinda do,' I laughed, finally letting out my amusement.

'So, will you help?' He asked.

'Fine,' I said. My mum didn't even know I was here, so I could head home first thing tomorrow.

'Did she mention where she would be?' He inquired.

'Yeah, I heard her saying she was going to be at the central park. We should start looking from there,' I suggested, even though I wasn't sure what we'd find.

As Drex got changed, we headed straight to the park. After nearly an hour of searching, my stomach rumbled loudly, making it clear I was very hungry. Drex kindly offered to buy some food, and after we had finished eating, we resumed our search. Just how big is this park anyway? It seemed to have an endless array of activities.

I convinced Drex that we could have a little fun at the carnival located near the park. When we arrived there, I spotted his girlfriend and the other guy riding the ferris wheel.

'Um, would you look at the time? We don't have time for games,' I called his attention.

'But you were the one who suggested this,' he said, looking confused.

'And you would've stopped me,' I responded. 'Come on, let's go find your girlfriend.'

Even though I had seen her with another guy, I couldn't bear to break the news to Drex. I didn't want to witness a potentially devastating ending to their relationship, even if it might be the right thing to do. After three hours of fruitless searching, we grew tired and realized it was too late to return to her apartment. We decided to book a motel. Unfortunately, with the money we had on us, we could only afford one room.

Drex paid for the room, and I collected the key and settled into the spacious room. Since I had arrived first, I made myself comfortable on the bed. Just as I was about to drift into slumber, the door swung open, and Drex walked in.

'Oh no, you don't! The bed is mine!' He rushed towards the bed."

    **LIA** "But I got here first; you can't do this to me," I whined with mock indignation. Drex chuckled, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "I get dibs on the bed because... I paid most," he stated, his tone almost teasing, and he held his head high in mock triumph. "No fair," I protested, pretending to pout as I stood up and dramatically stepped out of the bedroom. Drex couldn't help but smile proudly, his eyes dancing with amusement, as if he'd just won a playful contest. I heard the bedroom door close behind me. How could he treat a lady this way? I playfully muttered to myself that I should be the one enjoying the comfort of that bed right now. Resigned to the couch, I checked my phone once more – it was already 8:50 PM. Closing my eyes, I attempted to find solace in sleep, but it remained frustratingly elusive. Checking my phone again, it displayed 9:30 PM. Why couldn't I sleep? My mind seemed to be racing with thoughts, and the minutes dragged on slowly. After battling with my

    **LIA** "Lia..." Groaning, Drex's kisses left a trail of fire along my neck, and my body responded with moans of pleasure. "Hmm..." I moaned in response to his tantalizing touch. His hands deftly moved to unbutton my shirt, revealing more of my skin. Our lips remained locked in a passionate embrace, and with a firm grip on my waist, he led me toward the bedroom. My shirt and singlet soon joined the pile on the floor, and Drex closed the bedroom door behind us. He pushed me against the wall, my half-naked body exposed to the warmth of his gaze. With swift determination, he moved on to my leggings, sliding them down my legs. I assisted by removing them from my ankles, eager to move forward. Despite being half-naked in front of this attractive stranger, I didn't want to stop the irresistible momentum. As he shed his own T-shirt, I playfully took charge of the situation, pushing him onto the bed with a playful grin. "Ooh, look who's being sassy," he teased, chuckling at my sudden shift

    **LIA** "What are you doing here?" Drex's voice was tinged with confusion as he peered through the bed covers, quickly realizing the situation. Panic etched across his face as he looked back at me. "I'm pretty sure I slept on the couch! So what am I doing here?! Did you bring me here?" I shouted, wrapping the bed cover around myself, desperately hoping he hadn't seen anything. "Why are we naked?" Both of us questioned in unison. "My gosh! What did we do?" I stood up, clutching the entire bed cover around me, accidentally leaving Drex exposed. My eyes widened involuntarily, not knowing where to look. "Ahh!" he yelped, promptly grabbing his boxers to shield his modesty. I felt my face flush with embarrassment and turned away, averting my gaze. "Well, don't look at me!" he yelled again. "We'll need to talk about what happened, but after we get dressed," I mumbled, my face still burning with embarrassment. "I'm sorry I stared!" I called back to him as I retreated from the room. Wh

    **LIA** Finally, I arrived back home that afternoon, but not before making a detour to Jessica's apartment and a pharmacy. I stood in front of my house, ready to knock. A mixture of excitement and apprehension welled up within me. I faked a smile and took a deep breath. While I was undeniably happy to be home, the situation I was in cast a shadow over my return. With newfound resolve, I finally knocked on the door. "It's opened!" Lena, my sister, called from inside. "Come on, Selena, go and check who's at the door," my mom's voice followed. It had been so long. Yes, we had FaceTimed, chatted, and had countless phone calls, but nothing compared to the real thing. I was almost in tears, given my situation and how much I had missed her. "Ugh! Mum, you're stressing me out!" Lena's exasperated voice echoed through the house. "Come on, get up, you lazy ass! Be useful to me for once!" my mom's response was filled with irritation. I was close to laughter. The dynamics between them hadn't

    *ONE YEAR LATER* **DREX** The room buzzed with excitement as everyone chanted, "Cut the cake!" Yes, that's right, it was my birthday, and today was also the day of my engagement ceremony to the love of my life, Jessica. She was the woman I had once tried to surprise on her birthday, but that attempt had gone horribly wrong due to a situation with... someone else. After successfully cutting the cake, a strange, unfamiliar voice suddenly pierced the celebratory atmosphere. "Hold it right there!" The voice belonged to a young woman holding a baby wrapped in a white flannel. Her arrival drew collective gasps of surprise and attention. She pointed directly at me. "You," she exclaimed. I was bewildered by the sudden intrusion. "Me?" I asked, my confusion evident. "Why are you here, and who are you? I don't remember inviting this person," my father said, positioning himself between me and the woman, trying to shield me from her view. "This is your grandchild!" she declared, causing a

    **LIA** I arrived home, expecting to find my baby peacefully sleeping or my sister looking after her. However, I was met with a surprising sight: my sister was busy applying makeup. I scanned the room in search of my child, but she was nowhere in sight. "where is Angel?" I asked. My sister nonchalantly continued her makeup application. "I solved your problem for you," she replied. "What... what problem?" My confusion was evident in my voice. My sister set down her makeup and approached me. She placed her hand on my shoulder and said, "I'm sorry I acted without your knowledge, but it was necessary. It's for the best. Now you're free to continue with your life." I moved back a little, distancing myself from her touch. "Could you please clarify? I need it in plain language. 'Live my life' and 'I'm free' doesn't make sense to me," I insisted, growing increasingly frustrated. "I took Angel to a better place," she explained. "What are you saying?!" I raised my voice. "I took her to

    **LIA** Drex and I stood anxiously behind the imposing dining hall doors. His father's words weren't to be taken lightly. Even Lena was inside that room! I couldn't help but wonder, why me? We exchanged frustrated glances as we waited for the outcome of this family discussion. My patience was wearing thin, and I couldn't stand the thought of talking to him, this so-called father-to-my-child who had run from his responsibilities like a coward. I glared at Drex, unable to contain my agitation. "Got anything to say to me?" My impatience slipped through my voice. His response was terse, "No." "Then quit staring!" I snapped, not bothering to hide my irritation. Drex muttered, "It's not like you didn't stare back." I scoffed, "Well, unlike someone, I didn't run away from the stare, I stared back." As the seconds ticked by, I couldn't help but seethe at the whole situation. I was eager for the door to open, revealing the fate of my dear Angel. Drex's voice cut through the tense air,

    **LIA** "What?!" Drex and I exclaimed in disbelief. The news left me shocked but, honestly, not entirely surprised. I knew that Drex hadn't exactly been thrilled about the prospect of fatherhood from the very beginning, even before Angel was conceived. "Yes," Drex's dad affirmed. In a desperate attempt to hasten the process, I quickly responded, "Okay, fine. Can I have my daughter now?" I wanted to appear smart and eager, but I could see that Drex's dad was already one step ahead. "Not so fast, my dear daughter-in-law," he smirked. I couldn't help but acknowledge that his wit was quite impressive. "You will only see your daughter after your marriage, and the more you delay, the longer you'll be separated from little Delia," he added with a smug smile. He had already named her? This family seemed to make decisions without much consideration for anyone else's opinion, including mine. Turning to my mum for assistance, I questioned, "Why do I have to go through with this when your so

    **JASPER**Just coming back from a stroll, when I witnessed Jessica having the door slammed shut on her face. I was going to ignore it and climb upstairs to my apartment, because I had no business with her anymore,but just then she turns around and sighted me. "Jasper?" She called and sniffed. I then look at her direction, she was in tears, I couldn't just leave her like that so I ended up taking her to my apartment. "Want some coffee?" I offered. "Yes please,"she answers and cleans her tears. "Alright," I clicked my tongue and went into the kitchen, made the coffee and brought it for her. Her eyes already puffy and red from crying. "Thanks," she managed to say and collects the coffee from me. Then I sat next to her, we hadn't really been close like this since her birthday, she told me she was ready to end her relationship with Drex for me. We were childhood friends and then became best friends and the year I told her I was in love with her was when she also told me she was

    **LIA**He made his first movement very slowly inside me and I moaned at the contact. Making me forget what had interrupted us before. "Hmmm...who-hmmhmm," I suddenly could not make a sentence anymore, I was a moaning mess, and all because of just his fingers."Baby girl, let's-us-just-ignore-it, who's-ever-at-the-door-would-go-away," Drex said all those words each, planting a kiss on my neck,still fingering me slowly, touching every area needed in the walls of my opening. "Hmmhmm," I couldn't even voice out a yes, but I guess he understood. Just when we thought the person was gone because we didn't hear the doorbell anymore, the person decided to knock this time, and not even once, continuously. I guess the person really needs us. "Hmmhmm...D-hmmmm," Yeah I still couldn't make up a sentence. But then it was like Drex understood once again. This time Drex began moving faster with his finger, like he wanted us to finish up quick I guess, but then I was still enjoying it all too mu

I guess that's why the name is hence 'Burning desires,' I turn to my side only to find Drex already staring at me. "Yes...hmm," the female lead began moaning. Not the right time for this TV."Harder baby!" She yells. This is so embarrassing. Drex didn't say anything but instead I could see his eyes get darker with desire and I didn't even realize how dry my throat was, I swallowed and then took my lower lip in my mouth biting it in the process. "I want all of you," the male lead spoke while you could hear the moaning sounds in the background. It was as if that was what Drex was waiting on, before I realized what was going on, Drex, in a swift motion charges towards me and took my lips making the both of us land on the bed, I was now laying on my back while he was hovering above me. His lips were warm and soft

    **LIA**After mentally groaning to the interuption of my comfortability, who had the audacity to interrupt me time. I thought I should be home alone by now right? I mean it's either they went to his room or went out to, so why is there a knock at my door? I got up from my bed and opened the door. It was Drex. What was he doing here? I thought he had to hang out with Jessica now or something. "Drex?" I called his name in question. "What are you doing here? And where is Jessica?" I asked, peeping out of my door trying to seek her out. "Mind if I join you?" He asked surveying my room, trying not to make eye contact. Join me? in my room? "What-what about Jessica?" I had to ask again. "I um sent her away..." He said, his hand finding it's way to the back of his neck. "Are you guys okay?" I had to ask. Because just four days ago the two of them couldn't get enough of themselves. I mean Drex forgot his child because of her. "Yeah...can we not-" he said.Oh, I didn't mean to pry."Ye

    **LIA**As promised, Drex did his part as a dad to Angel, he'd help me feed her while I get ready for school, he makes sure she's tucked in before I get back home maybe when I have a late night class that day or I meet them playing if i get home early. He picks her up from school and helped me with most of the things that involved taking care of her. She was so used to her dad tucking her in that if he doesn't she makes a huge fuss.He made it so easy for me with school and all, I start to pity him, he's probably trying to make up for what he did. I didn't really feel being a mother much, because of his help. Weekend came by so fast, we decided to take Angel to her grandparents house, by that I meant his family. His sister also came visiting to his parents house and by visiting,I mean stay a while with them, With her twin boys who were about 3-4 years old and her husband.

    **LIA**I ended up explaining everything to Jasper on our way back home, our arms still linked together. "Well that is...just messed up!" He concluded. Right?! "I know!" I replied. "The important thing now is that she is safe and well tucked in." He said tapping my hand that was linked to his. "Yes that is true..." I said. As long as my baby's safe. We finally got to our gate and he decided to escort me to my door. "You should get some rest, I don't suggest you drink that today..." He said referring to the 6 cans of beer I had in the nylon I held. "It's already late, you should just get some rest.""Thanks Jasper," I removed my arm from his."I'll get that rest," "You should probably talk to Drex," He said with a smile. "Good night Lia," and then he left. "Good night," I waved at him. I got inside hoping Drex would be in his room already asleep but he was still in the living room. I tried as much as possible not to make eye contact,so I'd just head into my room but he wa

    **DREX**After spending the whole day with Jessica, she begged me to take her to my house, to sleep over. I couldn't refuse, I took her home. We were heading in when Jessica decided to chat a bit outside with meWe were having a chat, our hands intertwined, when I noticed Lia and she was holding a sound sleeping Angel in her hand. She looked like she was shocked or something. Why is she just entering now? Isn't it a bit too late? I shouldn't bother, it's not really my problem... Is it?"You're one despicable human being" she said and walked away. "What's her deal?" Jessica asked while I just watched her walk away. "Drex! Hello! Focus on me!" Jessica brings my attention back to her. But it seems like my mind wanted to wonder the more. What happened and why am I a despicable human being? Did I do something that hurt her that bad? "Drex! Come on!" Jessica tries again. "Oh I'm sorry Jessica, you should probably head home," I said to her. "What?!" She raised her voice in surprise. "

    **DREX**After dropping Lia at school, I went straight to mine. I am almost done with school, I just have few months left and I'm off to the sky! No litrally, I don't Know why but the love I have for being up there is so huge. Ever since I was little, I have always enjoyed flying so much I decided to be a pilot so it would be a regular thing for me to fly. When I told my dad, he made sure I got the best education, hired the best tutor and looked for the best college for me. He has always tried to help me, but somehow I was always disappointing him, not in my studies, just in everything else, like making any decisions. And something I thought was the biggest disappointment was somehow his happiness. Anyways, I have decided to make him proud by being the best pilot there is. After all that's what he expects from me after giving me the best. Didn't have much classes to do today, so I was done with classes by 2.

    **LIA**As I emerged from my room, the tension in the air was suffocating. All I could think about was grabbing a beer to numb the stress pulsating through my veins. Striding purposefully to the kitchen, I swung open the fridge door, hoping for a glimmer of relief. But alas, only one lone can greeted my searching gaze, mocking my desperate craving.Frustration clawed at my insides as I closed the fridge, resigned to my dwindling supply. Retreating back to my room, I shed the constraints of the day, I needed to get more cans, slipping into the comforting embrace of a grey sweat pant and hoodie. Tying my unruly hair into a messy bun, I tried to contain the chaos raging within. Taking my phone with me and coming back out of my room, Drex was already in the living room, he was watching the whatever was on TV. I didn't even want to see him right now, I was beyond pissed! I just wanted to quietly leave the house unfortunately he notices my presence. "Hey where are you going to?" He asked.
