I slowly open my eyes and looking myself at the mirror as Lena behind me and hug me with her soft hand on my stomach. “Wow… it’s beautiful” I say in a low voice as I’m stroking the 100K$ pearl necklace on my neck. “Beautiful thing for my beautiful girlfriend…” Lena says as she kisses my neck from the back. “But it’s expensive…” I say as I’m looking at myself in the mirror. Lena hugs me tightly as she rests her chin on my shoulder.
“You know… I could give
I leave Lena with tears on my cheeks in confusion as a coat covers my naked body. The Russian man drives me to the airport with a luxury Mercedez Benz. I felt strange… how Lena knows all of these men and what kind of business they’re run. Why they running from this place like cops wants to catch them all. I could see that when I’m looking at Lena’s eyes, she’s terrified… and why she doesn’t back to New York with me… why she leaves me alone with strangers.The Russian man and I arrive at the airpor
LENA’S POINT OF VIEW“Jeez fucking psycho motherfucker” I mumble as I put my phone at the table. “What happened?”’ Dmitri says as he highly raises an eyebrow in confusion. “See!” I unlock my phone and show him the messages. “Holy shit!” Dmitri mumbles as he looking at the phone screen. I wanted to barf as I read the second one. Honestly, Sasha had no respect for herself… I’m just glad that I didn’t have to comply.
It’s been 17 hours I sit in here, staring at the clouds behind the plane shield. I could see Queens’s right below my whole soul right now. Timati and I leave the plane and walk to the international arrival gate, he brought me to the parking lot and drives me home. I sit naked next to him with a coat covering my tan body and bag in my hand. I reach my phone inside my bag and I found that I waste all of my phone energy in Phuket.“Shit…” I mumble as I stare at the dead phone screen. Timati removes his sight from the ro
LENA’S POINT OF VIEWVegas always be my favorite place to high and escape from the reality. This place looks the way I imagine heaven must look at night. A city that I build hope, dreams, and drives me crazy sometimes. The place that taught me how to survive, how to live my life no matter what happens in the next day. Most of my clients are from Vegas… However it doesn’t matter, Vegas used to be my home but now the place that I called home is Maia. I reach my phone and try to call Maia but she doesn’t pick up the phone, so I decide to leave her messages and wait for her to call me.“How's everything going?” Dmitri says as he chews the food. “She doesn’t answer the phone, she still on her way, I guess...” I say as my eyes point to the phone screen. I’m scrolling my phone and looking at the last flight ticket for me to back home to Queens. “Shit!” I mumble as I stare at the phone
The car’s horn wakes me up, my night was terrible without Lena by my side. I open my eyes to see the hazy sunlight creep through the bright blue shades draped over the window. “Jeez…” I mumble as I bury my face through the pillow. I always hated waking up early but today was different, Lena will be here soon and I need to prepare myself before she got here. “Fuck… what the hell with people” I groan as I cover my ears with pillows. I could hear the annoying car’s horn getting loud and louder.Rosa broke into my room “Bruuug…” The door sounds. My heart beats faster as I heard the door sounds and the annoying car’s horn “What the hell! You fucking scared me! Jeez…” I say as I highly raise my voice. “The fucking car’s horn is burning my ass, I’m about to see through the window considering your room facing the parking lot and I fucking wanted to curse the o
I pack the thingie and prepare myself to leave, I couldn’t imagine that I move out with Lena and leave Rosa and little Alison here. Staring at the ceiling and looking around at my room makes me feel blue, this place is full of memories… Ben and I love to spending time and do our homework here, Alaia and I love to talk about boys and the mean girls here when we’re in college. I can’t believe that I turn myself over Lena and completely trust her with my whole heart.I know that I will never be blue because I have Lena by my side, but sometimes I feel like this ain’t right. I hurt people to be with her, I leave Ben over her. I never regret everything I’ve ever done in the past because I think it's maybe our destiny. I brought my bags and walk downstairs, I see Lena and Rosa laughing in the kitchen… I walk towards the living room and put my bags on the table. “I’m gonna miss you baby bear…” I say a
Standing in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves… I cannot choose how the world will bring me, but I choose to live in joy. I let my joy be in my journey before I die and sometimes my joy is the source of my smile, but sometimes my smile could be the source of my joy. I close my eyes and feel the breeze, the breeze smell like roses in the vast field. I feel like I’m not suffering for a moment, from my past, my guilt, and my pain.Lena walks closer to me and standing behind me, she rests her hands on my hips and puts her chin on my shoulder “Nothing beautiful than you… but I do love the view” Lena says. “You’re the sweetest girl I’ve ever know!” I say as I point my eyes at the view. Lena chuckle “No one ever says that” She says. “Let’s prepare ourselves… everyone’s coming soon” Lena says as she kisses my cheek from behind. I turn around and facing her &
LENA’S POINT OF VIEWEverything just fine, the business runs great and Maia agreed with my demands and move out with me. I feel like she’s fallen for me… or I fall for her. Standing 10 meters from Maia, next to Dmitri, and staring at her occasionally, I felt the last margarita slip down my throat as I’m looking at standing Maia. Her pretty hair like the ocean’s waves… I’m surfing the waves every night she lay down next to me.Maia is a wave and I’m the ocean, wave is a part of the ocean as Maia is a part of me. The party runs perfectly, everyone’s coming. Dmitri and I looking around the place to see if there are uninvited guests come to this place. “Is it cool right? Standing next to each other with money in our pocket and junkie drunkie people around us” Dmitri says with a smirk on his face. I remove my gaze from the crowd and stare at Dmitri “Yeah… I felt powerful” I
Finally, the cup of iced tea I was holding in my hands fell and hit the floor, a tiny drop of tear started soaking my eyes, the moment I learned Lena replied to the girl with a few kisses, from her cheek to her chin, I walked out of the cinema, leaving Z without a word behind.“Maia!”Z called me, she was confused yet I never looked back, I ran off in a wet prison uniform when I left the location, making my way to my cell without locking the door.The pillow that became the safest place for me to complain got wet after a few seconds I landed my face on it and I squeezed the pillow to let out my anger at the time, crying as quietly as I could so no one hear me.I said I was fine, I moved on but it felt hurt when I saw her with someone else, as if a thousand swords were stabbed in my chest, I couldn’t breathe. Do you still wish it was me beside you? When you kiss or hug someone else, do you imagine it was us?Millions of questions started surrounding my brain, at the time I didn’t reali
I’ve been thinking a lot for the last few hours, clearing my head and trying to figure out what I need to say after having Lena in my cell. After leaving the open yard, I went back to my cell and rested my back against the non-comfy bunk which I never thought that I would lay there. My eyes looked up at the ceiling and both my arms became my pillow at the time, the more I thought about Lena, the more pain I got. Then I have no clue why my eyes ran toward her stuff, as the intrusive invaded me, I started leaving my bunk and made my way to her spot. My eyes ran around the place, I made sure no one passed my cell and saw me near my bunkmate spot before I walked even closer. A soft cover became the first thing I touched as I got there; Lena always had this cover with her, why? As I remembered every time she had a nightmare hugging this orange cover would make her feel better, I rubbed the cover and smiled, knowing this was hers and after fighting the urge not to come here yet I can’t.
A raven-haired girl that I hated but also madly in love showed up in front of my face, she frowned and looked unhappy when she noticed I was the one who opened the door for her. Her tousled hair and eyes that looked so exhausted were evident as far as the eye could see when Lena appeared in front of me but that still didn’t take away the beauty she had since she was born. “What the hell did you do here?” I ask as my eyes are looking at her in annoyance. “Ask the guy who brought me here” Lena scoffs as she rolls her eyes, she gets into my cell without my permission like that cell was hers, placing her stuff on the top of my bunk not hers afterward. Lena one hundred percent knows how to piss me off, she always has a way to make me madly mad at her but also in love, I have no idea what her intention was when she placed her stuff on the top of my bunk, not hers but as I know Lena loves to annoy me or she may be here to torture me, paying that male guard so that she can get this room. “
“Hey! Campbell? What are you doing here?”A male guard just came and that freezes us. “Uh, keep your hands clean, inmate!” Cara shouts at me. I raise my eyebrow with an annoyed look on my face and I get back to my cell. I knew she shouted at me because she does not want to get shot in 4K by that male big guard. “I-I’m about to go, I’ll check another room then” Cara states as she facing the male guard which standing in front of my room, awkwardly.“Oh, I thought there’s something wrong happened here” He chuckles. “Ah, no, no… no worries” Cara chuckles in an awkward way. She leaves my room and disappearing into the prison corridor then. I sigh and fold up my pink furry cozy blanket, get ready to greet my new roommate. “Hey, look at you! A friend of mine said that you’ll be in the yoga class this
“So tell me… we haven’t met in millennia” Cara chuckles. “What do you do after college Maia?” She ends. “I’ve traveled with my ex hukkk…” I clear my throat tensely. “Ex-girlfriend…” I whoosh my breath as I look at her. Cara stares at me with a raised brow, I guess she gets more surprised because she found out that I am not straight like she thought. “Wow!” She’s whooshing her breath in surprise. “My ex-girlfriend who ran an illegal shit and now… I found herself is in here too!” I end.“Wow, that’s surprising Maia!” Cara shook her head and chuckles. “I didn’t expect that you can get involved into that kind of thing” She ends. “I mean… yes, I helped her! But I cut myself and leave... Now I’m lamenting myself for leaving
I laugh softly trying to pulling back myself together and smile. “Well, guess we’re done now… I have to meet someone at the library and apply for my job application” I say. “What?! You’re going to work? Like seriously?” Z surprises. “Yeah, you know… I need to stay away from my bed and do some work so I won’t gain you know… more fat” I chuckle. “Hahaha you still look great though!” She chuckles as she looks at me.“Mmmm well, I should go!” I sigh and I up from my bunk. “Oh, o-okay…” She up from my bed too and gets ready to go, but before that she turns around and facing me. I was scanning over the drawer to get some paper and a pen. “H-hey… Maia?” Z calls me and it’s distracted me. “Yeah?” I up from my knee and look at her who stands not
Tears start to fall down from my eyes and soaked my cheeks. I smile in tears but also cry in pain. How could I disappoint my family and not giving them what they wanted. My family gave everything to me and I never had a chance to repay their kindness. Life is not always fair, I had a nice rich family and I disappoint them. Some of us in this world are struggling for living because they’re not born from the affluent family. Same as Lena, she struggled since she was a kid.“I am so grateful that I had you as my sister…” I sob as tears start to fall down and soak my cheeks. “And I thank you for being the sister that you are. You’re amazing, you’re understanding and I know… that if nobody in this damn world loves me, I know you love me… And I never have to look for love” I end as I wipe my tears. “You soaked me huh? Now I ha
“Yes, I’m coming!” I sigh as I open the door. “Maia?” Katty just came to my room and ruined my wonderful bittersweet flashback with Lena. “H-hey… What’s up?” I greet her with a little slight of annoyance on my face. “Hey… You okay?” She asks. “Y-yeah… I’m good. What’s up?” I reply. “Oh, Z asked me to check on you. You haven’t shown up this morning, where have you been?” Katty asks. “Ah, I stayed in my room all day hehe” I chuckle tensely.“I’m about to go now to see Z in her room” I end. “Are you sure you’re okay? You look sweaty, Maia. Are you sick?” Katty punches me with more questions, I lost my mind and don’t know how to punch her back with more answers. “I… hmmm I’m good! Yeah, I’m goo
“Oh, God, damn, Jesus Christ!” I moaned passionately as Lena kept kissing my body passionately. She kissed me so damn good and it left burning desire in my wake. She kissed me sensually right between my breasts. My nipples stand bright and erected following her soft damn sensual kissed as I squeezed the sheets with my hands, it felt so good and relaxed, I would never cheat on her cause I cannot find a girl who done me so good like Lena does.“You wasted so much time babe…” I said under my breath as I saw Lena swirl her tongue against my nipple. My pussy was so wet and it cannot wait any longer, but Lena kept played her game and spins out the time. Lena laughed softly knowing that I cannot wait any longer and wanting her fingers to in, but she played her game and tortured me even more. She off her tongue from my nipple and started licking my chin up to my mou
