Have you been drinking again?

Laura walks into her room, the dim light casting shadows on the walls. Her heart skips a beat as she suddenly sees Anna seated in the corner, her face expressionless. “Oh good lord!” Laura instinctively clutches her chest, her breath catching in her throat. She lets out a sigh of relief as she realizes it's just Anna, but the fear lingers."Anna, you scared me," Laura says in a shaky voice, her hand still pressed against her chest as if to calm her racing heart.Anna's eyes narrow as she looks at Laura, her gaze piercing. "Were you drinking again?" she asks coldly, her voice tinged with disappointment.Laura opens her mouth to deny it, but Anna raises a bottle and holds it up, her eyes fixed on the label. Laura's heart sinks as she realizes her secret has been exposed. She looks down, unable to meet Anna's gaze."I found this by your bedside," Anna says, her voice soft but firm. “Want to tell me something about it?”Laura takes a deep breath, her shoulders slumping. She knows she can

Forget the rivalry, let's be friends

Jenny timidly knocks on Anna's door, her knuckles barely grazing the wooden surface. She shifts her weight from one foot to the other, feeling a mix of nervousness and anticipation. This was her first time coming to Anna's room, and given the animosity between them, she wasn't sure what to expect.As the door creaks open, Jenny is met with surprise. Anna and Laura are both standing there, their eyebrows raised in unison. Jenny can see the tension in the room, palpable and suffocating.Laura's expression is guarded, her eyebrows furrowing as she eyes Jenny. Her lips twist into a sneer as she rudely asks, "What do you want?" Her tone is confrontational, as if bracing herself for another fight, even in the late hours of the night. Her arms are crossed over her chest, her body language defensive, and her eyes narrowed in suspicion. Jenny's heart skips a beat, and she tries to steady her nerves."I... I didn't mean to intrude," Jenny stammers, her voice barely above a whisper. "I just... I

Ladies night

She had been hoping to spend some quality time with him, but as she pushes open the door, she's greeted by the sound of her husband's deep snores.

It seems like he's always either busy with work or asleep these days.As she leaves her husband's room, Mrs. Gray can't help but feel a pang of worry.

Make Time for the women

Stephen whistled as he headed towards Anna’s room, he had forced himself to stay away from her throughout yesterday as a way to convince himself that he wasn’t getting obsessed with her, but now he couldn’t just hold back. He wanted to see her, he desperately needed to see her.Stephen got to the stairway and had stepped on the first step when he heard his name, “Marcus!” Of course, there was only one person who referred to him by his middle name.Stephen turned around and smiled. “Good morning mom.”“Aha… Good morning, where are you off to in such a hurry? You are moving like a ghost is after you,” she teased.Stephen laughed softly, trying to not make this look more embarrassing. “Funny mom, I just wanted to go and check on…”“Anna,” Mrs. Gray cut him short. “You wanted to go check on Anna, I know, it is obvious… Why else would you climb up to the guest room hallway?” she smiled.Stephen grinned, “Okay, I don’t know what that is supposed to mean, but I will see you later, mom.” He l

The McCurry's

Anna sat on the edge of her bed, her cellphone pressed to her ear as she spoke to her mother, Mrs. McCurry. She had been worried about her parents ever since their house had burned down, and Stephen had taken them to a new place.She had not been able to communicate with them aside from the day of their arrival, she had been unable to reach them and whenever she asked Stephen, he assured her that they were fine. It was almost two weeks now and she could finally get through to them."Mom, how are you and dad being treated there?" Anna asked with concern, her brows furrowed.Mrs. McCurry's voice came through the phone, sounding relieved. "Anna, we're being treated like royalty here," she said. "Stephen has been so kind to us, and the people here are really friendly."Anna couldn't help but roll her eyes playfully, even though her mother couldn't see her. "So, you're too busy enjoying your queen's treatment to even bother asking about your own daughter, huh?" she teased, trying to hide h

Too busy to hang out

Stephen took his mother's advice to heart and decided to spend more time with the women in his life; today he had one of them in mind. He walked down the stairs to the sitting room where Laura, Anna, and Jenny were chatting away."Good morning, ladies," he said, grinning from ear to ear. "How are my favorite ladies doing today?"They all looked up at him with surprise on their face, his behavior was unusual. Why did he look so happy today? Everything seemed to be different around the Gray mansion this week. Laura, his sister, scoffed and rolled her eyes. Anna gave him a shy smile and looked away, even though she found his behavior strange; he wasn’t this smiley on his best days. Jenny, his fiancée, stood up and gave him a quick peck on the cheek, she seemed to be the only one not surprised by his behavior."Stephen, you're up early," Laura said, “You didn’t forget it was a Saturday, did you?” she teased."I am. I wanted to spend some time with you guys today, I realized I haven’t rea

Women are two-faced swords

Stephen leaned back in his chair, his eyes flickering between the figures on his computer screen and the man sitting across from him. Dominic, his friend and business partner, was nodding attentively, scribbling down notes as they discussed the details of their upcoming project. Stephen's focus was intense, but his ears were alert to the sounds beyond the closed door of his home office.Even though it was the weekend and he had originally planned to spend it in Florida with Jenny, he was kind of glad that she turned him down because he still had a lot of office work to do. As he couldn’t go to the office today, he decided to work from home. Just like his father, he had a study room; there were so many books on the shelves, but maybe they were just there as interior design because he barely touched them.The door suddenly opened, and Stephen's father walked in, his face creased with worry. "What's going on in our house?" he asked, his voice gruff.Stephen looked up, surprised. "What do

An attack!

The sitting room was warm and cozy, filled with the sound of laughter and chatter as the ladies sat around gossiping over men on a magazine. Laura really knew a thing or two about each one of them millionaires, she used to live the club life so she had met a lot of these people.Before her alcohol days, Laura was quite the party girl, the one with the good bad vibes. She was not a whore but she was quite rotten and had done a lot of nasty things. She had even attempted drugs once and forced her father’s hand into shutting down the club and hunting down her supplier before she could get addicted to that stuff.“Sorry guys, you will have to excuse me for a few seconds, I need to use the bathroom,” Jenny said with a smile and stood up from the couch.“Yeah sure, we will be here when you come back.” Anna smiled. “I should look into our next Mr. Hot,” she said. Hanging out with the ladies of the Gray family had changed her a lot, she wasn’t that naïve innocent girl anymore, she enjoyed nas

poison

Laura lay on the hospital bed, unconscious, as her family members stood in the waiting hall, anxiously waiting for any news. Stephen had rushed to the hospital straight from a meeting, his face contorted with worry. Mrs. Gray had arrived from the nail salon, her perfectly manicured nails forgotten as she fretted about her daughter’s health. Mr. Gray was not able to join them yet as he had traveled out of town, but he was expected to return that night and it was getting dark already.Anna and Jenny were also present, but while Jenny paced back and forth, trying to keep her cool, Anna was lost in thought, wondering what could have happened to Laura. Why was she sick?The female doctor approached them with a solemn expression, and they gathered around her eagerly, hoping for some good news. "Laura had ingested poison," the doctor reported, her voice grave. "But the good news is that it wasn't strong enough to kill her. She will recover from it."The family members let out a collective s

Who is responsible?

Stephen walks towards Jenny as she sits in the waiting room, her thoughts consumed by the recent events. As he approaches her, her heart starts racing, wondering if he has discovered her role in the poisoning incident. Her fear subsides when he asks if he could make a call with her phone because he had left his own behind in the car.Jenny hesitates at first, almost offering to go bring his phone, but then she realizes that it would be insensitive to do so at a time like this."Sure," she said, handing him her phone. "Is everything okay?"Stephen nodded. "Yeah, it's just a work thing. I forgot my phone in the car. Thanks for letting me use yours."Stephen takes Jenny's phone and dials a number, his eyes fixed on her as he waits for the call to connect. Jenny can't help but feel nervous under his intense gaze, her mind racing with possibilities of what he might have discovered.She couldn't help but wonder why he had chosen her phone out of everyone else's in the waiting room.
