This afternoon, I was admiring Rafe's garden because the sun wasn't shining too brightly, making it a perfect afternoon to explore Rafe's vast yard.It was going to be a lovely day, but I seemed to have misunderstood everything."Who is that lady over there?"When I saw the figure near the gate, a woman who was treated with respect by the gatekeepers as if they had known her for a long time, I was intrigued.The woman's eyes locked on mine, and this is where the problem began. We stared for a long time until I noticed a strange smile form on her lips.This is just my delusion, right? Just my hallucinations, right?But it appears that I was mistaken, because that woman is now approaching me. Yes, her intention was clearly to greet me."Hi," she said as she extended her hand. She was a lovely lady with long, wavy hair. She also had a lovely smile on her face and flawless makeup, as I'm sure everyone would agree."Hi"I said as I extended my hand to shake hers, and the woman seemed surpri
The most awkward thing that ever happened to me was when I was in high school and on the bus, the guy sitting next to me farted loudly, which everyone on the bus heard, but he pretended not to hear and continued singing with his earphones plugged in.And I had a feeling those earphones weren't connected to the music player he was carrying.And what happened next was even stranger. I'm sitting in front of this woman, whose name I don't know. In Rafe's living room, we were facing each other.She looked at me occasionally, then at the small mirror in her hand, and then triumphantly smiled.What exactly does that mean? Is she comparing my face to hers and then claiming victory? What in the world is that?As a woman, I was obviously offended; if there had been a makeup kit nearby, I would have challenged this woman to a makeup battle. Damn, it appears that Rafe's arrogance has rubbed off on me."Well, well, if it isn't the one who claims to be Rafe's wife.""You could simply say 'Rafe's wi
The lady in front of me was extremely cruel. She showed me the prostitution catalog she had and invited me to join the prostitution several times."Please, stop. I can't listen to this anymore." I said while holding back tears but tears still fell too.I felt like I needed something for some reason. Rafe's presence is required, as he is usually present in such situations."Rafe? Are you there? Please, show up."I couldn't stand listening to the woman in front of me babble. Yes, and I was startled to hear footsteps. Rafe appeared to have come and gone.I was about to stand up because I felt compelled to complain about everything to the mysterious man who had lied to me.But I was outmatched when the woman in front of me stood up quickly, half-running to meet Rafe, who had just entered."Are they embracing each other?" I was almost at a loss for words when I saw what was happening. The woman was hugging Rafe and Rafe seemed fine with it.What the hell is going on? Why would Rafe want to
Rafe has recently become more distant from me. Did he mean this when we discussed what would happen if we changed in Singapore?I'm not sure if he's joking, but it appears that luck is playing tricks on me right now."Hello Luna, it's been a while since we last met." said the woman I knew so well. The woman with long wavy hair.A beautiful woman with the characteristics I despised the most. Aline was the one who entered Rafe's house with several large suitcases."Why are you here?" I asked, trying to stay strong even though my instinct told me that something bad was going to happen again."I'm thinking of moving in here, actually." she said with a sweet smile. A sweet smile that hid her devilish face.I was speechless, especially since Rafe had also emerged from his room, carrying her suitcase inside."Wait, you guys live in the same room.""No" Rafe replied briefly but Aline walked over and whispered to me."Not at the moment, but who knows about the future?" "By the way, Luna, you
My life has been hell for a month since Aline moved into this house. I haven't even cracked a joke in a long time.Even the jokes I see on TV have lost their zing. "Hey, are you actually watching TV?" she asked even though it was obvious. What else was I doing in front of the big TV with the remote in my hand. "Just so you know, my father owns that TV station." Aline started her sentence as if she wanted to insinuate my poverty again."And your point is?" "Oh, and that other station? My uncle's the owner."I stood up and attempted to walk away from the sofa, but Aline abruptly stopped me again. "Don’t even think of moving. Step away, and I'll wreck your life, guaranteed." she threatened and for some reason I was always afraid of her threats. I didn't know what was going on, but this woman seemed to have a power that I couldn't control.I sat back, warily watching Aline, fearful that she would do something dangerous again. "Luna, ever realize how the mass media rules the world?""
I woke up at five o'clock this morning, kept awake by Aline's mention of a surprise planned for seven a.m.If Aline's surprise had been something fun, I bet I could've actually slept. But no, it was a threat."I really hope she doesn't do anything crazy." I whispered to myself.I was a mess, my stomach doing flips all because of the crazy anxiety.As the sun popped up, I had to face the real deal – no escaping it.And Rafe? He wasn’t around again. Seems like he's always caught up in his own stuff these days."No matter what, Luna, don't give in." I gripped my hand tightly, clenching my fingers into a fist and hoping that today wouldn't be the worst day of my life.Stepped outside and there was Aline, just standing there, with the TV blaring at full blast."Luna, I got these high-end speakers just for today." Aline pointed at the speakers I'd only ever seen in social media ads."Aline, please tell me you were joking yesterday.""I'm serious about everything I say, Luna."My heart's pou
"Faghri, what's this about?" , I heard an ambiguous sentence from this man who had called me unexpectedly."Stop pretending, Luna. If you're in the mood, just come over." "How dare you! Do you really see me as that kind of person?" I'd clearly had enough of this jerk whose only concern was his crotch."Oh, come on, aren't you a bit curious? I heard about your... adventurous escapades." , the man on the other end of the line laughed.The oil tycoon's son really crossed a line this time, especially after Aline spread those fake naked photos of me.I never imagined that jerk would dare to contact me again, especially after Rafe set him straight in Singapore."Luna, you don't want that photo to live on in internet, do you", Faghri's words became stranger. His rambunctious tone had become flat and solemn."What do you mean?" "Look, Luna, I have connections. Cleaning up your online mess? It's nothing for me."I was shocked. Sure, Fahgri's loaded and influential, but I knew he wouldn't o
"Haha, Rafe. What do you think?""Ah, you can't talk anymore, can you?"This was an odd and unusual sight. Rafe was speaking to himself, calling out his own name as if he weren't himself."This is interesting. And Luna, you're in my sights now!""Destiny has tied us together, Luna, haven't they?"Rafe was sitting on his bed, stroking the strange grimoire beside him, when his hand became electrocuted."Damn it! This ancient relic always brings trouble." the man cursed.This man was attractive, but his eyes had turned dark, as if no human being was present.Rafe then lit a cigar and smoked it slowly, savoring every exhaled nicotine smoke."Women are simple creatures. Push them to the brink, and they’ll fold.""I owe Aline one for making Luna so vulnerable."He exhaled some more cigarette smoke and smiled horribly. "Luna, we only meet in dreams for now. But once you yield to me, our destiny will come to fruition." this man spoke as if he had lived thousands of years.He spoke as if he h
