I KNOW WHAT TO DO

I stared at him upon hearing those words. I don’t know if I should be happy or not. I’ve been wishing for this moment to come, the time where I can be with him in one workplace. But would I still want it now that I can see how happy he is with someone else?

“You just hired me,” I said, repeating what he just told me, in disbelief.

He stood up and crossed his arms across his chest. “Yes. I did. So, don’t waste your time and energy applying to some other companies,” he replied. “You said Nildex is the best company for you to exercise and apply what you learned, right? Now that you have the best, would you even look for something lesser?”

I was stoned at his question. I don’t know if he’s still talking about the company or about something else.

“Why did you hire me?” I couldn’t help but ask. I’m so confused. Does he r

    YOUR GIRLFRIENDIt wasn’t that bad after all. I just needed some time to adjust to the new atmosphere but I’m getting by. My colleagues are all bringing about happy vibes so I’m happy. At least I can be happy, even just for a moment.“Who wants pizza for snacks?” Heina asked everyone in the room.Almost everyone raised their hands and the boys even shouted, “All on you?”Heina rolled her eyes. “I won’t ask if it wasn’t, dummy!” she told Charles who asked the loudest.I chuckled on my seat as I reviewed the new applicants for the company. I’m just too happy to be one with them. Being in one company with Kai was bad enough, having ill-mannered members would’ve made it worse.Charles stuck his tongue out. “Buy a lot then!” he beamed earning a glare from Heina.Sofia smiled and looked at me. “Miss Eunique, what else

    NOT NOWI couldn’t calm down. I am not in the mood for anything. When I walked inside the office, everyone looked at me but no one ever dared to talk to me. I went straight to my desk to review on the files of the applicants I interviewed today.My heart is aching as usual, but the intensity of the pain right now is excruciating. I’m praying for the time where I will be immune to this intensity of pain. I hope it comes soon before I lose my mind.I love Kai. Of course, I do. I can’t imagine the day I won’t. Even though he’s killing me with what he’s showing me right now, I still love him. But I also realized one thing.I don’t possibly have to be with the person I love. Sometimes, loving someone brings in too much pain that would require distance in order to save oneself from impending self-destruction. Sure, I love him but if this love would hurt me, then I’d rather let go.

    END OF THE ROAD“I’m going out for a company dinner,” I told my parents who were looking at me wearing a blue body-hugging dress that ends two inches above my knees.Mom and Dad smiled at me. “Sure, honey. You should go and have fun with your colleagues,” Dad said. I bet they are happy now that I have got accepted in their company of choice.I smiled and turned to leave.“What time are you going home, Nique?” Eurick asked me before I could close the door.“I don’t know yet. I’d meet with the girls after.” I replied.He pouted and nodded. “I’ll try to wait for you,” he told me.I shook my head. “Don’t wait up. I might go home late.” I replied.He frowned at me. “You better not go home later than two in the morning…” he warned me.I laughed at my overprotective brother. &ldquo

    DANCE WITH MEI felt so comfortable talking to Juneau. I don’t know why but there’s something so warm about him that I couldn’t resist talking to him.He’s told me so many stories about his life and sometimes, about the company. I’m so amazed at how he knows a lot about Nildex when he’s only here for merely four years. Maybe I would be so familiar with the company if I stay longer, too.I saw Kai and his cousins talking to some bigtime guests. I silently prayed that he wouldn’t see me. I don’t want to experience his intense stares right now. I looked away just as I noticed him looking at my direction.“I hope you enjoy your first dinner in Nildex.” Juneau smiled as we finished our meal. Like the extravagance of this dinner, the foods were all good and expensive, based on how each plate was presented.I smiled and nodded. “It was nicer with you.&rdquo

    No More CryingKai is dancing against me while I am stoned in my spot. What the hell is he doing? And most importantly, what is he doing here? He should be in the company dinner!His hands are wrapped around my waist as he swayed through a Justin Timberlake song. His eyes are directed to mine with his face so close.I swallowed and just stared at him. He’s looking at me like he’s thinking of what I am thinking. I bit my lip and looked away.I felt him leaning to my ear. “What’s wrong? Finish the damn dare so I could get you out of here immediately,” he whispered as he danced through the song.I looked at him with narrowed eyes. “I’m not supposed to dance with you,” I firmly told him. “Let go of me!” I tried to wriggle out of his grip but he only tightened his arms around me.“You want to leave my side and then what? You’ll dance with just some

    THAT PAPER BAGJuneau Portman is Kai’s half-brother. Rachel Grey is with Kai inside this cafeteria.Karen started talking about Juneau’s relationship with Kai. “I heard that the two aren’t close. They’re acting civil but they’re not close,” she said. “Kaisser Bennett is the legitimate child while Juneau Portman was only acknowledged five years ago.”“Who’s older?” I asked.John smiled. “I think they’re of the same age. Juneau Portman’s mother was Mr. Bennett’s secretary before. I don’t know the story in full and specified details but I think Juneau happened because of a mistake,” he narrated.I narrowed my eyes at him. “Juneau wasn’t acknowledged before?” I asked.They all shook their heads.“I remember Mr. Kaisser Bennett get wild and mad when he knew that Juneau would start w

    WHYMy jaw almost dropped when I heard what he told me. I wanted to ask for the reason behind all of these but no words could come out of my mouth. I’m dumbfounded, flabbergasted, baffled.He opened the paper bag in front of me and placed the food on my desk. “Eat.” He urged as he placed the pizza near my face. Why is he doing this to me? Why is he feeding me?I pursed my lips in a thin line and glared at him. “Where’s your girlfriend?” I asked him sharply.He looked up at me and his jaw tensed. “Not here,” he replied but the pizza was still in the air.I narrowed my eyes at him. “Then, what are you doing here?” I asked again.He pursed his lips before letting out a deep breath. “I don’t think I need to be everywhere she is,” he replied and was still persistent on feeding me the pizza.I scoffed. “Yeah, right!

    WHO YOU BELONG TOKai stood up and smiled at my members. I could almost see the three girls’ eyes glisten at the sight of him. “How are you here?” he asked casually like nothing is happening before they came in.The girls’ cheeks blushed as they heard Kai’s voice while the boys just smiled at him.“We’re good, Mr. Bennett.” It was John who answered Kai’s question. I have a feeling that he’s the only one who could talk right now. “Miss Eunique delegates the works well.” He chuckled.Kai smiled and looked at me. I tried hard not to look away because I know that it would just attract questions and attention. “Only the best for the company,” he said and chuckled as well. He turned to me again before smiling at them. “By the way, I just came by to tell your head about some important matters. I’ll leave you now.” He smiled. “Ha

    KAISSER“What the hell did you do there?” I wanted to punch Juneau when I heard from Eunique that he went there saying that he’s her boyfriend.Juneau’s eyes narrowed at me. “Chill, dude! I didn’t say I am the boyfriend,” he replied. “I just went there for a visit!” He defended himself.I wanted to punch him. Really! “Why would you want to visit her, then?” my blood is boiling.Juneau smiled menacingly. “I like her.” He replied and that earned him a hard punch. I don’t care if he’s my half-brother. When it comes to Eunique, I don’t care about anyone.“What the fuck?” he cursed as he touched the spot that I punched. His lip is bleeding but the hell I care. He likes my girl and I don’t like it! “What’s your problem, Kai?! You’re getting married to Rachel Grey! Let Eunique go!”I g

    BLACKIt’s been two days since the incident happened. Mom’s already conscious, as Eurick told me, but I never did try to visit her. I’m scared. I’m scared that she might deteriorate once more when she sees me. I don’t want her to get worse because of me.Eujean still hasn’t talked to me since the incident. She’s been in the hospital for days and Eurick only brings her clothes to change on every day. I can’t blame her for the cold treatment, though. I honestly think that I deserved it.On the brighter note, I am glad that Dad is not against my relationship with Kai. I don’t know what happened but I think Kai told him something that made him feel a bit more comfortable.Meanwhile, Rachel is still on her solo campaign about her wedding with Kai. This time, she even invited Kai’s parents on the press conference.“We are all so excited about the wedding,”

    PROHIBITEDJust when I was so sure of the choices I will make, unexpected things happen.Mom’s in a critical condition. Different tubes and lines are connected to her as she lies on the hospital bed, looking so hopeless. The doctor said she experienced ischemic stroke, the one where a clot has clogged a blood vessel near the brain.“The situation is under control, for now, Mr. James,” I heard the doctor tell Dad as we were watching out for Mom outside the Intensive Care Unit.Dad nodded. “When is she going to wake up, doc?” he asked.I bit my lip as I watched Mom inside that darned room, helpless and weak.“I am not certain of that yet, Mr. James. Her condition is still critical. For now, her vital signs are all stable. She seemed to be responding to the treatment very well. But we can’t be so sure. We’re still going to place the client in close monitoring.”

    GOING DOWNIt's been three days since Kai broke up with Rachel. It's the most painful way to break up with a girl. He cheated on her and now, he's the one with the guts to break up with her. She should be hurt but I'm not even feeling guilty of what happened to her.At first, maybe I am. But right after watching her on television, I realized that she’s one hell of a lunatic who's so in love with a guy. She's too in denial that she couldn't process some facts anymore.Too pathetic if one might ask.I don’t know if I should laugh or what. Rachel Grey just announced to the world that she is getting married to Kai. For once, I know that she is lying because I am with Kai right now, unlike what she's telling the whole world.I’m not in doubt of what Kai feels for me. From everything that he has shown me, I know how sincere he is. I know that he loves me. That gets no question from me.Mom stared at me

    OUR PLACEKai held my hand tightly as we were looking at the shocked Rachel Grey. She looks so shocked and devastated at the same time. I know how it feels—that feeling when someone you love rejected you. Trust me. I know the feeling.“W-what?” she couldn’t even utter that one word. She’s in disbelief. And—I don’t know—maybe, in despair as well.Kai laced his fingers with mine but he’s still keeping me behind him. I don’t really know why. Is it because he’s scared that Rachel Grey would slap me once again? I don’t know.“I said, let’s break up.” Kai repeated those same words.Tears welled on Rachel Grey’s eyes as she looked at Kai, apologetic and submitting. She shook her head and walked near us.“No…” she shook her head and held on Kai’s arm. “No, Kai. You’re kidding, right?”

    CLEAN SLATEI don’t know how quick we were as we put our clothes back on. Rachel Grey is standing behind the door, waiting for Kai to open the door to her while I am here, trying so hard to fix my after-sex hair.Kai looked at me and bit his lip. I don’t know what’s going on inside his head right now that his girlfriend is there, almost catching us.“Are you okay?” he even had the courage to ask me as he caressed my cheek.I breathed heavily. I am not alright. My heart is beating like hell and I think it could explode anytime right now.“Mr. Bennett?” Serena’s voice echoed the whole room once again as we heard another series of urgent knocks. Now, it seemed like Rachel Grey is getting impatient on the other side.Kai sighed and tucked the loose strands of my hair behind my ear. “Trust me on this one, alright?” he looked deeply in my eyes.I nodded

    RACHEL GREYMy heart is beating so fast as I walked inside Kai’s office. Serena, who wasn’t shocked to see me, let me in quickly. For once, I wanted to ask her what she thinks of me when I am entering the CEO’s office.I didn’t bother knocking because the door wasn’t closed. On the small opening, I can see Kai looking at the door boringly. His face only lit up when he saw me getting in.A smirk played on his lips as he immediately stood up and darted towards me. In one swift motion, he locked the door and trapped me in between his body and the cold door.“What took you so long?” he whispered as I felt his hands on both sides of my waist.I could shiver at the sensations that his voice is giving me. Damn it. He’s the only one who could make me feel this way. There’s no other man in the world who could make me feel any of these mixed emotions.I bit my lip and st

    ANYWHERE ANYTIMEEuron was glaring at me the next day during breakfast. I don’t even know why he’s here. He usually lives in his condominium, so, what is he doing here?I tried my best to ignore his death stares to the best of my ability. I concentrated on my food even though I’m not really hungry.My phone vibrated on my pocket and I immediately opened the message.From: Kaisser BennettGood morning! I’m on my way to your house. See you! I love you.I bit my lip to stop a smile from lighting up from my face. Damn it! Just one text and my heart is about to leap out of my chest once again.I heard someone cough. I looked up and saw that it was Euron. He’s staring at me like I’ve done something wrong.Euben, who was sitting just beside him, blinked at me. “Who texted you, Nique?” he asked innocently making all of their attention on me.I glance

    MY BOYFRIENDI’ve always thought about being serious in relationships. I’ve always thought that it’s still better to be in a relationship where we understand each other, we support each other and we complement each other. It’s not enough that we love each other. Love is the foundation but there are many other factors that would make a relationship last long.And that’s what I learned with my relationship with Kai. I loved him too much but I still had the guts and the courage to leave him. Sure, I had a lot of regrets and I think that’s just normal.I was too much blinded by my priorities that I thought love wasn’t enough.But right now, I won’t allow any of the past to happen again. I would stay with him. I would stay with him and fight. If he’s willing to give everything up for me, then, I am, too. I am willing to give up everything for him. It’s time to show him that
