Lahat ng Kabanata ng Two Alphas Want Me: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Sally and Ruby:It’s no surprise that I hear a woman’s voice on the phone when I call Lino. He has always been a womanizer since our early days in college.“Hi, I’d like to talk to the owner of the phone, Mr Lino.”“Yeah? Who are you to Lino? You called the right residence.”“I’m an old friend, we went to college together. Could you please let me speak to him?”“Just a sec, I’ll go get him”“Honey, there’s someone on the phone for you”“Who?”“She says she’s an old friend from college, might be one of your escapades”She put me on hold and went on to have a conversation about escapades with Lino.“here, have the phone”“Hello, who am I speaking with?”His voice finally comes on and I recognize the voice immediately.“hello Lino, it’s been a while. Recognize the voice?”“Reid! How could I forget a voice like that, it’s impossible”“I’m glad you remember me, you’ve always had a short memory”“I can’t forget your voice, we go way back”“Yeah yeah, Lino; there’s something I’d like to as

Sally:It had been a whole day since I got to Lino’s house. I had gone out to local marts and drinking bars to look for jobs but I was turned away from each one without anything as little as a consideration.I went back Lino’s house and laid in the room they gave me, occasionally Sally came to open the door and check on me. Was she worried I was going to steal something?Meanwhile Mason had called me, telling me that Logan wants to speak to me; so he I guess he finally told my brother about us. Still, the whole thing gets on my nerves and I give him a rude reply.It's morning now and Lino had gone off to work, turns out he got a job in the college’s teaching hospital as a doctor, I’m genuinely happy for him.During breakfast, for some reason Sally couldn’t take her eyes off me, it made me wonder just how much her husband cheats on her to make her suspecting of every female she sees around him. Quite frankly, even if Lino was the only man left on earth; I wasn’t going to have an affair

Ethan and Ruby:I knew just what she wanted us to talk about. It seemed to me as though her brother Ethan had asked her to come convince me into forgiving him. I gently sit on my bed looking confused. He once rejected me and now he wants us to get back together?I picked up my phone to read the text Layla had sent to me."Let's meet at our favourite hangout. We need to talk." The message stated.I sighted and could only hope it was something better other than her apologizing on her brother's behalf. I quickly went to the bathroom to take a shower and then got dressed. I took a cab and arrived at Craig garden. I got inside and scanned around for any sight of Layla. I knew she would come late but I patiently waited for her.I sat a bench near one of the trees and the cold breeze blow over my face and I felt relaxed. Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder and I opened my only just to see Layla standing and giving my her apologetic look."Ruby." She called out my name."Why are you alw

Clara and Ruby “What am I going to wear, what am I going to do?”I paced around the room nervously while biting my fingers.“I should call Clara to help me. But how do I get past Mason?”My phone lays on the bed idle as I pondered whether to call Clara or not.After much thinking, I give in an call her.The line rings for a couple of times before she picks up.“Ruby dear, you need anything?”“Yeah could you come up to my room real quick?”“I’m currently breastfeeding so give me five minutes ok?”“Five minutes will be fine. Thank you.”“I should probably take my bath before she gets here to pick out a dress for me.”The hot tub is already filled with steaming water but because I’m in a hurry, I’ll use the shower.Cold water slashes on my warm skin as I scrub the loofah down my back.“I might just catch a cold after this, the water feels like it’s freezing over.”“Knock knock, Rue. I’m here.”“Oh Clara, do come in.”She pushes the door open and closes it behind her.“Where are you?”“I

Logan broke off the branches of trees covering the road in order to clear a path for us.“You like what you see?”“Like? I love it”“I’m glad you do. It’s an old place”“It’s beautiful, the age doesn’t matter”“Shall we?”The cabin was mostly made out of wood, it had a simple structure. It must have had a fireplace because the cabin has a chimney.It's built next to a lake, I suppose they used to come up here for fishing trips.Logan holds my hand and leads me to the door gently.“When last did you come up here?”“Oh it’s been ages, it’s hard to remember something like that”“Why?”“Well, coming up here alone would only make me feel my loneliness and emptiness all the more”“You don’t have to feel like that anymore”I place my hands on his warm face and give him reassurance.“I’m cold, can we…go inside?”“Of course”Logan takes a key out of his jacket pocket and unlocks the door. He goes in before me and turns on the light so I don’t trip and fall.The sight of the cabin leaves me spe
