"WHAT?! Why didn't you tell me sooner? Shit, that was so embarrassing!" Shena shouted angrily while we were inside the cafeteria. A few people turned to look in our direction because of her loud outburst. Her voice was shrill, and it could startle you like a pig being slaughtered. She called me early in the morning, but Alex answered because he woke up early for a work meeting, and he came home around noon, which surprised me. I woke up thinking someone had hugged me, and I almost punched him. When I realized I was in an unfamiliar room, I remembered I had stayed in his penthouse. What's even more embarrassing was that I had no underwear on! Out of embarrassment, I kicked him since he was touching my thighs while I had my back turned to him. He was wearing loose pants, and I almost hit something. I still remember the look of shock on his face when I did that. Who would go hysterical in that situation? I had no underwear, and there was a bump in his pants. He might have misunderstood

The enticing aroma of various dishes filled the air, intensifying my hunger. Colorful banners displayed images of delicious meals, tempting us to choose. I was about to take money from my wallet when he suddenly handed the vendor some cash. "I got it... You just eat whatever you like," he said. I want to protest, but I know I'd still lose. Kalel can be quite stubborn at times. I even lost to him in our past arguments. We took a seat at a small table. He excused himself to buy some soft drinks, leaving me alone, and I began to eat. Kalel placed the soft drinks beside me before sitting across from me. We sat in silence, eating, while watching the people around us. Once we finished eating, we both stood up. We started walking while observing the happenings around us. I didn't plan to enjoy myself right now; I wanted to ask him many things, but I knew Kalel was just looking for the right moment to speak. "Why did you do that?" That's the first question I wanted Kalel to answer today

The morning sun greeted me with its warmth as I opened the curtains on the balcony. I had just come out of the bathroom after washing my face, and I had been smiling since earlier. Who wouldn't? There were so many roses in the room when I woke up, not just one color, but various shades. Alex had also left a letter in there, and I couldn't help but roll around on my bed. Even though we had a little argument last night because he didn't want us to sleep in separate rooms and preferred that I stay in his room, which I didn't agree with. I wanted to avoid any potential distractions this early. A message interrupted my thoughts, so I approached the bedside table and checked my phone. 'Good morning! Do you like the flowers?' I smiled and started typing a reply to him, but my smile faded when I read his next message. 'Is it prettier than the flowers you received yesterday?' I was about to feel thrilled, but he had to remind me of yesterday. Alex has a knack for ruining the mood. 'I mis

It was already 11 o'clock when we decided to go to sleep. I was told to sleep in the guest room by their mom, but when I got there, there was a man already lying on the bed, and it was obvious that it was Alex. He was hugging a large pillow and lying in the opposite direction. I found enough space on the bed to accommodate us, but I didn't have a plan for that. I searched for a blanket or anything to lie on, and luckily, I found one, so I spread it on the floor. I also took two pillows from the bed. Suddenly, I screamed when Alex pulled me and wrapped his arms around me while lying on top of me. He looked at me intently, making my heart race. 'What are you doing?' I asked, feeling nervous. Locking you up," he replied, his mischievous smile heightened the rapid beating of my heart. "Why do you need to lock me up? You could simply tell me if you have something to say,"I wanted to avoid him, but there was something about the way Alex looked at me that made it impossible for me to move

Because of what happened, I could hardly sleep. Even in my dreams, I still see that scene. I wanted to hit my head with a hammer to stop thinking about it, but the pain is still fresh. I turned on the television with little enthusiasm, sinking into the couch. After coming home from school, all I did was cry. My ability to focus on work has evaporated due to my emotional state. Reaching for a snack on the small table, I absentmindedly flipped through the channels. It was then that I recognized a familiar face on the screen. I quickly opened my phone and searched for an article, and I wasn't wrong. Alex's mom was on TV, and they were trying to obtain her will. I scrolled and searched for why that happened and read other reasons from the news. Lavinia accuses Tita of embezzling a substantial amount of money from a charity organization they both volunteered for in the past. She claims that Tita manipulated the money records to divert funds for her personal benefit. I was taken aback
