Amber PovWe are both silent inside Phil's car and driving home to Mildy's apartment. At first, he tried to talk to me but I didn't answer him instead I slept until we reached my friend's apartment.After his car stopped, I got out of the car and hurriedly walked to the gate without saying goodbye."Amber!" Phil called my name. He got out of his car but didn't completely approach me. "Aren't you going to tell me something?"I stopped my intention of opening the gate when I heard him call me. I took a deep breath before I faced him."Ahm, thank you very much for driving me home," I said to him obliquely. Then I proceeded to open the gate."Isn't what happened to us mean nothing to you?" I heard Phil ask when I was about to enter the gate."We're not children anymore, Phil. We know what we're doing. And what happened earlier was caused by the cold atmosphere and body heat, so we shouldn't think about that anymore," I answered, pretending to be indifferent to him. I didn't wait for what

Amber Pov"Are you sure you want to go back to work now, Amber?"From her apartment, Mildy asked me for the sixth time if I really want to go back to work. And even though we were walking into the mall where we worked, she still seemed worried about me."Don't be OA, my friend. I only had a fever for one day and I didn't have a serious illness that my body couldn't handle from going back to work, okay?" I told her with a laugh."I'm just worried about you. Well, I don't really have to worry about it because I almost forgot that you're stronger than a buffalo so you recover quickly when you get sick," she laughed jokingly at me. I just laughed at what she said.We stopped talking when we punched our ID card so we could record the time we are in and started to work. We were both busy with our respective jobs so we didn't talk again until lunchtime.I was secretly thankful that Melvin didn't bother me again. He didn't even try to come closer and talk to me. I thought that maybe he was af

Amber Pov"Amber, are you okay?" Mildy asked me worriedly when she approached me where I was standing. There are few customers today so Mildy was able to approach and talk to me."I'm fine," I answered her in a lifeless voice."Is that what okay looks like? Ever since we came back from the canteen, your mind seems to be wandering. What are you thinking about? The marriage proposal of Melvin that you rejected or Phil and the woman with him?"I took a deep breath before facing her. "I'm not thinking about them, okay? I'm just too lazy to work right now," I replied to her."Oh! It's a miracle that my hard-working friend who thinks of nothing else but working and making money is now too lazy to work. What did you eat for a snack today?" Mildy asked me in disbelief."What did I eat for lunch today? Air," I quickly answered her. "I didn't eat much during lunch because Melvin suddenly proposed to me and I skipped snack too.""Speaking of Melvin, what are your plans for him?" Mildy asked, h

Amber Pov I couldn't stop my anger so I slapped Harlen. I put up with the bad words she says to me but it's a different story when she badmouthed Grandpa Fidel. She has no right to say those bad words against Phil's grandfather. "How dare you slap me!" Harlen snorted angrily as she held the side of her face that I strongly slapped. "That's not the only thing you will taste when I hear you again bad-mouthing, Grandpa Fidel!" I angrily threatened him. "Grandpa my ass!" Harlen hissed at me. "Why, Amber? Are you embarrassed that everyone will know that you're having an affair with a man who has four m's that's why you're denying it? A rich old man who's about to die is really your grandfather? And besides, You're a slut, Amber. You are seducing not only Sir Phil but also an old man who looks like he's going to die tomorrow?" Harlem insulted and laughed at me. My ears heated even more because of what she said. How dare she make played with Grandpa Fidel's life. She is too much. My h

Amber Pov"You're drunk so you better go home, Melvin. Let's talk later when you're sober," I shooed him away. I tried to hide the nervousness in my voice at the moment.Melvin laughed slightly when he heard what I said. "Really, Amber? You're going to talk to me when I'm sober? Who are you fooling? You're even avoiding me and now you're going to say that we'll when I'm sober? I think we could talk now because no one will disturb us, especially that arrogant Phil.""Please go, Melvin. If you don't leave I'll be forced to call the police," I threatened him. I took my cellphone from my bag and was about to dial the emergency number of the police but Melvin quickly approached me and grabbed my cellphone away from me. He threw my cellphone on the floor so I couldn't use it."You think I'm going to let that happen?" he asked me, a devilish smile formed on his lips. This time I saw him as a demon who wants to harm an innocent human. "You're only mine, Amber. And you'll be mine forever aft
