Fireworks

The island of Foxgrove came alive as the festival started in full swing. A street parade began, which travelled through the main street up to the plaza. Young locals wearing colorful costumes and masks danced and sang as they walked through the street, pulling in tourists and inviting them to dance along to the loud, upbeat music.All around were smiling faces.Vivi was busy serving customers in her booth in the plaza when Uncle Mac and Leo arrived. He was wearing his mask as usual, this time pairing it with a black cap.She had asked Uncle Mac earlier to give Leo a tour around the festival area.“Let me help you,” Leo said, taking the loaf of bread from her hand and placing it inside a paper bag before handing it over to the customer.

Leo came into the inn’s cafe in the afternoon, planning to get a few snacks and an iced coffee to bring to the beach to eat as he read a paperback he brought with him. He went to the cafe instead of calling for room service that day because he heard Vivi was busy with a meeting with some of their investors. He was just about to leave when he was suddenly attacked with a bear hug. “Leo! I knew it was you!” The culprit was a beautiful young woman wearing a skimpy body hugging mini dress. A younger girl carrying a backpack followed behind her. “Kitty?” Leo exclaimed, recognizing her. “What are you doing here?” The woman in question brazenly removed Leo’s mask and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He quickly removed her arms aro

Vivi groaned loudly, cradling her head with her hands, after Mr. Morris left. Leo and Selene glanced at each other, wondering what to do next, when she suddenly sat up and looked in their direction.“Can someone please explain to me what just happened?” she demanded.Selene immediately bowed her head. “It’s my fault, Boss. I couldn’t leave Mr. Adams hanging in front of that awful woman so I ended up suggesting you as his girlfriend without thinking.”Vivi turned to Leo and glared. “And you,” she said. “I expected more from you. What the hell were you thinking?”“Kitty isn’t the type to give up easily,” he reasoned out. “I needed to give her a reason to give up.”

Leo and Vivi both heaved a sigh of relief as they found themselves back inside the café. After talking to Grandma Zeri, the two quietly escaped the conference hall while the rest of the people in the hall were busy sampling the platter of bread and pastries from the café.Selene served them a glass of water each, bowing her head a few more times in apology. Vivi forgave her immediately, but gave her a warning to keep the fact that their relationship was fake to herself, which Selene quickly promised to do.“I guess there’s no turning back now,” said Leo as he watched Selene walk back to her post behind the counter.Vivi watched him in silence for a moment, trying to assess their situation. While she felt a sense of gratitude towards Leo for getting her out of that mess, it appeared th

Family (Part 2)

Anthony walked toward Chocolate Kiss Inn. It was already dark and the streets were quiet, which was usual on the east side of the island. Here, people prefer the idyllic paradise lifestyle where they put a premium on rest, relaxation, and peace. Night life was not a regular occurrence here; those looking for something more lively at sundown were directed to the west side where, as locals would joke, no one ever sleeps. For the east side, night life was more drinking beer and having quiet conversation while watching the waves crash at the beach than anything else. Anthony knew that the investors’ meeting was this afternoon so he brought a six-pack, knowing that Vivi would probably like to unwind after dinner. He went straight to Vivi’s office, knocki

“Hey wait, wait... babe…!” Leo made a face to them and went after Vivi.Vivi went to a corner of the garden and folded her arms.She doesn’t know why exactly, but she is fuming mad. Not at Leo per se, but on the idea that she was forced to act out of character.She refused to look at him.“Come on, babe,” he said with insincere sweetness.“No one can hear you but me, idiot,” she gritted her teeth.“They might. Besides, this is good practice. Our first argument as a couple. How exciting!”The errant wind constantly blew her hair, and it was framing her face beautifully.

The first thing that came to Vivi’s mind when she came to work the next morning was that something didn’t feel right.It first crossed her mind when she greeted those working the front desk good morning as she passed by.It happened again when she passed by two housekeeping staff who were on the morning shift.Finally, she spotted several employees congregating at the front desk. Noting that they were acting suspiciously, she immediately walked to them.“What’s up?” she asked.Everyone glanced at each other, waiting for someone to talk first.“Well, Boss…” Isabelle, one of the receptionists, spoke up. “It’s just that som
