“You are ready to meet my parents then?” Darrem asked Serene as soon she arrives at the house. Serene chuckled. He looks so adorable when he was excited. “Let me take a rest first.” Darrem gave her a loght kiss and assist her to their room. “They will love you no matter what. They are really nice.” Darrem was confident that there wouldn't be a problem with his parents. “I can't wait to meet them. You talk a lot about them and it makes me wonder about how they'll treat me.” Serene sat on the bed, taking off her sandals. Darrem joined her, kissing her cheeks. “They'll be nice. You don't have to be worried.” He looks so sincere for Serene to take that as a lie. Darrem settled everything. He would left the work for Brixel. His bestfriend know that this is important for them, finally introducing his fiancé to his parents.They fly to Boston, where his parents live. He informed them already about the purpose of their visit, and his parents got so excited about the news.“Oh, is she Ser
The weather is a bit off today, with an announcement of an upcoming storm in the proximity of New York City. The street was filled of passerby holding different color umbrellas with their shoes squeaking as they passed by. The thick glass wall of the café was now covered with raindrops coming from twitched umbrellas and splashes of water on the sidewalk. Even it was raining hard, the street was still busy with wheels rolling on the wet street, and feet marching on the sidewalk. The Ladies’ Coffee was a small café on the east of New York City. It was quite unpopular because of its location. It was hidden behind the tall law firm building, and was a bit far from the center of downtown. Not many actually knows that an eighteen-years-old café was existing behind the Madison Firm. There are not more than five costumers sitting on the tables, sipping cheap but surely tasty coffee. On the left corner of the café sits a slender lady wearing thick sweater and loose pants. The large spectac
The party will happen tonight. It's been a week since the two has met and sealed their little business proposal. Serene had already informed her boss in the bakery that she has other plan for the day, and will just work on her day off this Sunday to cover her absent. She took off her apron and pulled the gloves out of her hands. The flour was all over her pants and shirt even she had securely covered her body with the apron. Serene was not an expert in making bread. She has no other option but to act like a professional baker at the baking space. She was a fast-learner so she never find it difficult to make a perfectly baked bread just after weeks of working there. “You are leaving early?” Tanya, one of Serene's opposite number asked after she noticed that Serene was packing her stuff now on the locker.Serene zipped her bag and hanged it on her shoulder. “I have some important matters to do. I'll takeover my day off instead. You know I needed some extra income.” Tanya cannot help b
The preparation went well. The make up artist named Catty had given Serene a light but ravishing make up. Her hair was tied back in an elegant bun. The silver earrings and necklace complemented her black gown. Sydney recommended a black heels to match her attire. Serene couldn't believe the product of the make over and dress up. She looks like an american Jennie Kim on her new style. Her puffy cheeks and small face complemented her fashion style. She clasped the YSL pouch on her arms as the stylist put the last accessory, the mask. It was a yellow golden half mask, that she personally chose on the collection. It made her a completely different person. Sydney gasped looking at the finish product. “Very gorgeous,” she said gently clapping her hands. Serene was also astonished to see herself. She cannot afford any of the things she is wearing, and she felt like walking in debt. “Ma'am, the helicopter was already here. I have informed the limousine driver to ready,” Cin, the family bu
Serene got conscious because of how the man reacted to her. She thought that she irritated him, but she had no other choice but to continue her agenda despite of. “Do you know when will the door open?” she asked while pointing to the closed door. Darrem slightly laughed at the question of the woman. She was cute, he thought. “The door will open tomorrow.” Serene's lips parted. The man just told her it will open tomorrow. She wouldn't waste a night on that hotel. “Why? But I have to go now.” Darrem slid his hand on his pocket, and faced the attractive lady in front of him. He doesn't know why the girl was acting like she doesn't know about how Casa Roma works. “You can't go. There's no way you can go at this moment. You can only leave this place tomorrow at 6 AM, but you have to use your ticket card first on one of the hotel room.” Darrem doesn't like explaining things to others but he wants to continue his conversation with the woman. Serene touched her forehead, stressed. She ca
“You have a choice to say no. It's not like I'm forcing you.” Serene was so conscious about how her statement sounded to Darrem. She doesn't want to sound horny or what. “It's not like I don't want to. I'm just surprised,” Darrem answered with all honesty. “Look I have no choice. You are my last option. Most of the men here are ready to devour any women they came across to and I can't act compulsively. I have to leave this place and if I can't leave tonight then I'm okay for tomorrow but I have to assure the freaking door will open for me, first.” Darrem can feel the frustration of the woman and he find her cuter when she's angry. Darrem pressed his lips. “So you are saying that I'm different among them?” Serene nod her head. That's what she think of him. “You aren't looking perverted to me.” She aren't sure of it, but she was following her instinct. The man was disinterested of her, and he already told her that he has no plan of sleeping with anyone here. He might be flirty, but
One month had already passed, and Serene never talked about that night to anyone, not even Sydney. Sydney who was so curious about Serene's experience in the hotel, couldn't get a proper answer from Serene. When she asked her about, why Serene spend the night in the hotel, even the answer was obvious, Serene will just say, “I don't want to talk about it. It's so boring.”Sydney's original plan was to make her friend enjoy a sizzling night with a stranger, that's why she intentionally crop some instruction. A mission failed for her because Serene looks uninterested about telling her things about that night. She believed that, Serene probably got bored with the party because obviously she isn't a party goer. So instead of asking more about it, she just let her friend live in a peaceful life.Serene's experience in Casa Roma was absolutely memorable, but she will just laugh at it when it crosses her mind. The world was too large for the two of them to meet again, but if it happens, then
They left the house early as 9:00 AM. They don't want to be late for the flight. The taxi arrived at the open field, exactly 9:17 AM. It was earlier than expected, so since they have some time left before the flight, they ordered some food on the nearest food booth. “Being a hotel staff was actually not a desirable job for me, but I'll change my mind if I found a rich guest and get married to him,” Bailey said, melting the ice cream on her tongue.Serene just laughed at her. “Yeah, goodluck to that dreams of yours.” She looked up in the clear sky and watched the clouds. “Goodluck to me to.” ‘I almost experience your dream, Bailey, meeting a rich guy, and spending a night with him, but I was Cinderella and this life is not a fairy tale’ She never said it aloud but just in her mind. A few minutes more and they saw Ethan approaching. He just have a small bag in his back. “The chopper is already ready. Hurry because my boss needs me before 12. I had to train three more new bartender re
