The face of the past 8: you in my mind
“What exactly happened yesterday?”Liana gave Pat a head shake. “It’s not my story to tell. You saw Kai’s face, he’s bruised. I’ll leave that to your thoughts,”Both of them are having their day-off. Liana planned to stay home after all the stressful events that happened the other day, until Pat annoyed her about them going out. So now, they’re strolling in the mall.Pat shook her head. “It’s not that. Someone sent a photo in our group chat! It’s your photo with sirKai in a parking lot! See…” She took out her phone in her pocket and showed Liana something. It’s a photo of her and Kai getting in the latter’s car.Liana pressed her lips together. “It’s nothing… He was drunk last night and called me. I just accompanied him home,”Liana was aware of the rumors living in the company for since she came. Everyone suspects Kai is only using her, which is right, but was never confirmed by anyone.“Nothing happened?” Pat raised a brow playfully.Liana’s eyes went wide. Her palm hit Pat’s arm. “

Kai fixed his posture. Victor was walking from the door to Kai who's standing beside his table. Victor's right hand man remained standing near the door."Dad," Kai responded, trying to avoid his father's eyes. He looked at the floor when Victor stopped near him."Where's the secretary you're bragging about?" Victor's voice was deep and harsh."She's on her way up here, Dad," Kai's voice almost trembled. He unaware of what's better, to beg Liana to come up faster or to pray Liana wouldn't show up because he'll be in danger by the time her father sees her.Victor scoffed. "Wasn't she trained to be punctual? I did not come here to wait! Dios Mio!""G-good afternoon…"Kai let out a quiet sigh when Liana entered the room. A heavy breath was heard from Victor as soon as he laid his eyes on Liana."G-good afternoon, sir…" Liana looked down, knees slightly trembling.Kai knows then he's finally in danger.

"You're late,"That's what Liana received from Kai as soon as she walked inside the office. She frowned as she took a quick look at her wrist watch."It's only 7:00, Sir Ellis. Work time should start at 7:30," Liana reasoned. "Good morning, by the way,""Office hours shouldn't get involved when I wanted to see you early," Kai eyed Liana from reading a book.Liana fixed her posture. She wasn't ready to get flirted with this early. She slowly walked to her table. "Oh… okay,"Kai put the book away and focused on Liana who had begun her work. Liana, on the other hand, hid her face behind her opened folder. The intense gaze of Kai made her uneasy."Have you eaten?" Kai suddenly asked.Liana nodded. "Yes…""I haven't. Like what you said, it's not office hours until 7:30. You've got 30 minutes to go with me,"Liana eyed Kai, jaw slightly dropped. The latter stood up and halted in front of her."Are you gonna stand up or I'll have to carry you?"

There they were again.Liana clutched on her bag, showing a sign of uneasiness. Everyone's eyes are on her and she doesn't like it. She couldn't simply be in the building because when they catch her, they put their attention to her."Why can't they just eat peacefully and let me fall in line for my food in peace too?" Liana said in her mind with a little forehead crease."Wonder why they're always staring?"Liana almost jumped in her place when someone from her back whispered. Liana looked back and that's when a long wavy haired girl at her age smiled."I'm Pat, an employee here,""I'm–""Liana. I know. Almost everyone knows you already," Pat butted in on Liana's introduction.Unsure what to do or say, Liana only nodded with a small beam.Pat laughed at Liana's wordless response. "Don't worry, some might, but not everyone hates you,"Liana remained silent. It may be connected to their jealousy, like what Raven said.Pat wanted to say something and she was about to when she noticed Lia

"Why is she staring like that?" Liana said in her mind. Eyes drawn on the piles of paper Kai asked her to do, but she could see Kai's eyes focusing on her through her peripheral vision.Today is Liana's first day. It was supposed to be yesterday, but then Kai understood Liana still has a few things to process regarding her being fired from work. Also, he had set up Liana's table, which is exactly across from his.Few hours of Liana working and she felt like Kai hadn't taken his eyes off her. She's starting to think that Kai wants to continue the sex with her.Liana looked up at Kai. Kai was brave enough to hold a staring contest with Liana, although the latter wasn't. Liana quickly gazed away, making Kai chuckled quietly."You keep staring at me. Don't you have work to do?" Liana asked, breaking the silence."I have. I am working right now," Kai answered."You're not,""I am. My job is to observe how you work to see if you're deserving of the position,"Liana just sighed. She needed t

Liana nervously sat on the seat in front of the dean's table. For some reason, she received news that the dean is calling for her due to a very important discussion. Is it a salary raise? A promotion? Or bad news? "Miss Garcia. So uhm… I called you here to announce that you're not gonna be able to teach here anymore. We're firing you," Liana's lips parted in shock. It was very confusing and astounding news. In panic, her mind started digging for a possible reason why, but she didn't find one. "Dean, I don't get it…" The dean sighed. "We needed to cut off teachers–" "But the teachers are just enough, dean," Liana argued. She didn't mean to be disrespectful, but the sudden decision doesn't make sense for her. "I'm sorry, miss Garcia. I cannot do anything about it anymore. You may pack your things and leave within this day," Liana thought about her family. They need her. Samuel needs his medications; it shouldn't be stopped or else something might happen to him again. "Miss Garci

"What makes you so eager to get her? Dude, she's not even Stella!"Raven's voice filled the whole conference room. From standing between seats, he pulled out a chair and occupied it."She looks a lot like her. If I can't be with Stella anymore, at least have someone looking like her," Kai raised his left brow at Raven.Raven rolled his eyes. He's now close to believing his friend had gone insane from yearning Stella."I thought you're smart? Why don't you just move on?"Kai's brows creased. He felt insulted by what he heard. Raven made it sound like he's gone stupid for not being over his past lover."You know what? Get out," Kai pointed to the door with an irritated face, still.Raven massaged the bridge of his nose. What runs in his mind is how Kai is not growing up. Kai still doesn't want anyone blocking his life choices, no matter how bad it is. What's right in his mind is automatically right. No one shall tell him what to do."Didn't you hear me?" Kai once again spoke after the s

The ice from a girl's whiskey bottle was again turned around as she swirled it with her middle finger. Liana can be seen sitting in a high chair, facing the bar counter.Few more moments had passed of Liana staring at the sweating glass. The ice is slowly melting, diluting the drink. Before the taste gets bland, Liana took a hold of the glass and chugged the alcohol. It created a scorching heat in her throat as she swallowed it down her stomach."I need one more," Said by Liana to the bartender available without leaving her eyes on the empty glass. She figured more alcohol would temporarily erase her exhaustion from work."You sure, ma'am? You look drunk already,"Liana averted her gaze to the early-thirties man with wrinkled forehead. Annoyance kicked in quickly hearing something she didn't want to hear."Isn't it the purpose of being here?"Both the bartender and Liana let their attention be taken by the tall man who walked close. He looked stunningly fierce with his gray polo and c
