All Chapters of Unrequited Love: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Malvika rose up from the bed and walked to the window side. She stood there, looking down at the parking lot. Mentally, she started counting the the numbers of cars in the parking lot, unsure of what else to do. After a while, she sighed and glanced at her phone on the bed. The sudden urge to pick up the phone and call Diane overwhelmed her but she managed to shrug it off and glance back outside.She had absolutely no plan for today but as she thought about it, she decided to go out and scout for a job. She needed one if she was going to ever survive without Diane and Natasha. Malvika had never actually lived alone or be responsible herself alone in her life. At first, when her father was still alive, he used to send her a couple of bonuses in a month because she was a passive partner of the company. Then, when he died, Diane placed her on a monthly salary. But now, she wasn’t sure that was possible anymore. If she wanted this to work, she had to find an actual job.But the thing was

Malvika stumbled through the hotel doors, ignoring the looks that people have her. She looked and felt exhausted and she knew it. As she turned to walk into the elevator, she saw Haley standing by her desk and walked towards her. “Hi,” She greeted, slumping into the tall stool that was across Haley.Haley glanced at her. “Hi. Malvika, right?”Malvika nodded. “Yeah. I came here to look for you this morning,” she said. “But the guy here said you weren’t around yet.” She had forgotten the guy's name.“Right. My shifts starts at twelve in the afternoon,” Haley replied. “And it ends by ten. How are you doing?” she asked politely.“I’m stressed out,” Malvika groaned. “I’m tired and I just want to lay down and sleep. I have no idea what to do. I’m so fucking tired.”“Is something wrong?” Haley inquired. Then, she hurriedly said, “Sorry for asking. I don’t mean to be a snoop but it’s just that you look really…..well, stressed. You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to.”“No, it’s okay,”

Malvika decided to stay in the hotel today. She encountered massive disappointments the previous day and she didn’t want a repeat. Besides, she and Haley made plans to catch a late breakfast and Haley has already said she would meet her in front of the hotel. Malvika certainly thought that was better than going on another fruitless job hunt.So, instead of waking up early like she did yesterday, she slept in late and woke up around eight o'clock. Then, she went to take her bath and freshen up, after which she slipped on some clothes she thought was proper for going out with a friend. It was a red tank top and a black mermaid skirt. Then, Malvika sat down and waited for Haley.Haley didn’t drop a phone number. She only said to meet Malvika at the hotel, so Malvika assumed she would come to her room. However, Malvika didn’t know how long Haley would take.Around nine o'clock, Malvika heard a knock on her door and she stood up, walked briskly to it and pulled it open, glad to see Haley s

The car screeched to a stop in front of Diane’s company and Nicholas climbed out, securing the lock of the door before walking into the company. Immediately the receptionist, Ariana, saw him, she rose to her feet, a polite smile on her face as she said, “Good morning, Mr. Langston. How may I help you today?”Nicholas instructed himself to play it cool. This wasn’t going to be like the last time when he almost terrified the girl, forcing her to let him see Diane. “I am here to see…..” he wanted to say 'my wife,' but he quickly stopped himself and instead, he said, “Miss. Matthews.”Ariana was a little surprised by how he addressed Diane. The last time he was there, he had been ranting about how Diane was his wife and how he didn’t need an appointment to see his wife. Now, he was referring to her as 'Miss Matthews'? Maybe there were already finalizing their divorce. “Hmm…. Ahem,” she cleared her throat. “Do you have an appointment?” she asked.Nicholas let out a sigh. “No, but it is ext

Malvika stumbled into the hotel, her shoes in her hand. Her hair look disheveled and her clothes were dirty. She had had a messed up day and all she wanted to do was go to bed. She glanced at her wristwatch. The time was fifteen minutes to ten. She knew Haley would be packing up to end her shift, so she wakes towards her table. She slumped down on a seat across Haley. “Hey,” she mumbled, making her presence known.“Hey, honey,” Haley said as she raised her head and saw Malvika. During the five days that Malvika had spent here, the both of them had fallen into an easy camaraderie of chatting and talking and sharing their problems with each other. “What’s wrong? You look horrible.”“I feel just horrible too. Infact, I’m pretty sure I feel worse than I look.”“What happened, hon?” Haley asked.“Went job hunting again,” Malvika groaned. “Today was worst then the rest. I pushed and shoved and groveled upon, yet I wasn’t given the job.”“Oh, sweetie. I’m so sorry.”“My stay in this hotel wi
