Where did she come from?

"So?" She asks dryly rolling her eyes uninterested of the topic, a culinary orchestra fills in the air, the voice of people taking their orders and the giggles of the teens clicking selfies in the next table. Taking the container of the chili paste she pushes the whole portion onto her plate, the colour of the noodles turns red when she mixes the spicy paste, swirling it around her fork she puts it in her mouth and looks straight at him again who was observing her movements."Aiden I....,""Sure," she cuts him off chewing onto the food in her mouth those eyes making him gulp down his saliva. Curling in his lips he looks around awkwardly and back at her his voice never coming out loud "I didn't even ask you anything," he blurts leaning forward."You have no need of giving a lengthy explanation," placing the fork on the surface of the plate she clasps her hands resting the elbow on the table those narrow brown eyes never leaving him "Let's break up as you wish," shrugging her shoulders

Who is he?

It’s been quite a while to come back to check on her state as I’ve been caught up in other things, standing by the door I take a deep breath in and let it out, the hold on the shopping bag tightens when my mind recalls negativity, closing my eyes I plaster a smile on my face gripping onto the door knob I push it open the fake smile on my face turns real when I see mom sitting on the bed looking at me, her eyes glistening with happiness.“Good evening,” my voice cheers her up, light wrinkles appear at the corners of her eyes, sitting straight moving forward away from the bed head b

She looks up resting her head on the sofa to look at Lisa who is scrolling down her phone with an ear-to-ear smile on her face. The excitement on her face drowns when she looks down at Aiden who stares at an empty space her eyebrows furrowed in a deep thought.“Den, are you okay?” she asks tossing the phone to aside.After short moment of silence Aiden closes her eyes and inhales a deep breath in and lets it out as she opens her eyes “Nothing,” she sighs running her hand through her hair as she sits straight taking the can and takes a huge gulp of the chill cola letting the gas play in her throat “Why am I trending?,” she asks picking up Lisa’s phone she unlocks it, her eyes squints when the image displays, moving the screen closer to her vision she scrolls down at the multiple images with dif

Riley’s P.O.VLooking through the transparent glass wall of the cafe outside, I observe the surrounding, the clear water of lake reflects the trees and sky onto it, there are few people walking around, and there I spotted two familiar faces. The reporters think that they’re well-hidden but always be found by me, the same thing happened when I went out with Mira and the next day the article was about me having one night stand with her. My gaze averts to the person seated opposite to me leaving the corner seat empty, she looks around as she runs her hand through her short black hair, my vision follows her actions when she removes her black leather jacket revealing the plain white t shirt. Her dressing sense always seem off.“I can't believe that my girlfriend dresses like this,” I snarl letting out a loud dramatic sigh, leaning behind I rest my shoulder on the chair head, my gaze moves down and up again at her.She furrows her brows and looks at me for a while “Do you expect a mini ski
