Stop teasing me
“Every relationship isn’t perfect, there will come a time that conflict may arise" “What the- Brent!" I startled when he kissed me in a flash. I was too engrossed with the blog I'm reading on my computer.  I did not expect that he will come back sooner. He had a lunch meeting with Mr. Tan the investor in their construction business.  “What makes you drown with your computer that you did not feel my presence, huh?” he sat on my table and crossed his arms on his broad chest. A playful and questioning look on his face was evident. “I’m just reading,” I rolled my eyes at him “ I'm so bored, you didn’t even give me a workload. What Am I supposed to do here? Earning my salary without producing any single sweat?” I added with a bit of exasperation in my tone. “Baby, you need to rest I know I tire you,” He smirked making me blushed. I know what he meant. He already reiterated that he will not give me a workload, because according to him, I

So much jealousy
That night we decided to sleep in Brent’s penthouse. He wanted to have our dinner out but I resisted because I want to cook for us. I've been in his place a couple of times already so I'm familiar with his kitchen. In fact, he gave me all the security access to his penthouse if ever I feel the urge to stay especially when he isn't around or out to another country for business errands. He persuaded me to move in with him but I defied him since I'm not ready yet.  "Baby, this is so good," he complimented my creamy spinach and basil lasagna. I put some more on his plate and I felt happy that he liked it. "Thank you," he said and smiled widely at me. Brent has been extra sweet to me since the day we made love. He couldn't stop himself from being clingy. I'm not complaining though as physical touch is one of his ways to express his love to me. We made love again that night which really worn me out the next morning. He convinced me to take an off but I don't w

Where are you?
“Damn it! So he’s the reason why you cried again!?” Hailey cursed loudly. “What did he do this time, Kelsie? To be honest, you look like a mess right now,” she blurted out. She doesn’t know how to filter her mouth but I like her frankness. Aira on the other hand kept quiet to listen to what I would say. She's the kind of person that will check on reasons before giving her opinion. “I-I got jealous when I saw them. They're close and comfortable with each other. I felt invisible around them and he did not introduce me neither," I told them. I wanted to leap out the feeling inside me and telling them would ease it a little.  “And you ran away because you’re jealous? Girl, you’re the girlfriend you shouldn’t lower your head with those bitches. You have to fight for what is yours. If you’ll act this way then don’t be surprised if one day someone will steal him away from you,” Hailey exasperated. She really has the character of overreacting but I know that she

What are you doing here?
We were done with pampering at seven and the massage really helped my body ease. The aromatic scent calmed my nerves and released my anxieties. "Let's get ready!" Hailey exclaimed and we headed to our suite. I changed to a black tube dress which Hailey bought for me. The length reached right in the middle of my thigh. I’m a little disoriented with my clothes but Hailey insisted that it looks good on me. The gay in the Salon earlier curled the lower part of my hair. He put simple makeup to enhance my beauty especially my eyes and cheekbone. “Freakin’ hot!” Aira and Hailey high five and giggled when they saw me. "I guess it's way too short for me?" I opposed but they said it was fine and I looked gorgeous. Hailey was wearing a bloody red string strap dress and five inches high heels. She looked marvelous and my lips parted at how curvy her body was. Her hair was put into a bun and her makeup rocked with her dress. She looked fantastic like a pro. My suspicion g

I hate you Brent
“W...What are you talking about?” Hailey laughed awkwardly and drunk her wine. “We’re here to comfort Kelsie, not to intrigue me” she avoided the topic. Aira and I looked at each other and we both sighed, the same thoughts had been running through our mind. We knew Hailey will not talk unless she’s ready, by her looked she seemed aloof and silent about it. I joined them on the balcony and drunk a glass of different wine. The scene with Brent a while ago flashed vividly in my mind. His gunshot brown eyes and I could still feel how his anger gazed run down through my soul. Until we got back to the hotel I haven’t received any message from him. I restricted all my incoming calls and I didn’t have any idea whether he tried to call me or not. It hurts to know that he gave up suddenly on me. It showed that his love for me was shallow as it could be. My grip on my glass tightened as I stared at it while thinking about Brent. “I knew he made you that upset, Kelsie,”

I'm sorry but I can't accept these
I stayed inside of my apartment that night and I don’t have any idea what happened to Brent after I slammed the door. I hadn't sleep properly because my mind was thinking about him. I know I’ve hurt him last night but I'm more in pain than him. No Brent showed in front of me starting that night. It pained me but I believe it was best for both of us. In the last few days, I was thinking of not going to work anymore but I should hand over my resignation letter. On a Monday morning, I came to the office formally to resign from my work. I contemplated it a lot of times and I'm certain I could get another job sooner. My graduation will be tomorrow and I have a lot of time to look for a regular job before I proceed to enroll in Law. I heard the phone ring, "Kelsie speaking," I answered. It was Mia from the finance department who notified me that she's coming upstairs to get the documents she needed from Brent.  “Hi, Kelsie,” I automatically smiled when

Hangover sucks!
The next morning, I woke dazed. My head felt like I was hammered because it throbbed with so much pain. “Hangover sucks!” I murmured. I tried to sit down and poked my head, eyes still closed. I didn't remember anything from last night aside from the moment we were cheering and having fun at the club. I know that we've been wild last night but I don't care anymore. I did celebrate my graduation the way I wanted it and that helped to lessen the pain inside me because of Brent. I stretched my arms and yawned. I wondered what time the three of us went home last night. That was my most drunken moment and I swear to not do it again. I felt I'm still floating in the air because alcohol invaded my system drastically.  When I opened my eyes, I flickered a few times because I wasn't in my room or in my friend's apartment. I was welcomed by a small light from the outside that passes through the corner of the window curtains. I roamed my eyes and my heart pounded wh

Are these mine?
“Olivia was diagnosed with dysthymia, a kind of depression. It was her mom who called me and asked for help because Olivia didn't want to talk to anyone in her family. During those times she's been looking for me. Our families have been friends for so many years that was why I did not hesitate to help. Besides she's like a little sister to me and what I have is purely a brotherly act. Trust me".  I closed my eyes and tried to balance everything that he said. "What about her?" I muttered. "It's obvious that she likes you," I added. “I made it clear to her that she will be forever a little sister to me," he explained. "I told her that I have you and I love you so much," he assured and that made me breathe in relief. "Baby, please don’t be worried anymore. I will always choose you over anyone else,” he pulled me closer and wrapped his arms around my waist.  "Now let's talk about that resignation you left on my table," he changed the topic. "Did

Hurry up and get me
I was dumbfounded for a moment because I couldn't believe he did that to persuade me. I refused him before because I wasn't ready to live with him but he asked me the question again. "I told you I'm not ready," I spoke softly. "I know," he replied. "I'm just hoping you will say yes this time," he added and I felt touched by his gestures. "Give me more time," I said like a whisper. "Alright," he kissed me on my temple down to my lips. I thought it was just a simple kiss but we ended kissing passionately. He was ravishing my small cavern and I responded with the same level of willingness.  He pulled out and lowered his gaze to met mine. A playful smile curved on his lips. "Do you want us to continue on the bed?” he whispered against my lips and my body shivered instantly. “I'm late!” I slapped his arms and that earned a laugh from him. “I love you so much” he cupped my face and stared at me lovingly. I leaned closer and we hugged each other tightly

I have something to tell you
I excused myself and gone to the restroom because I got the urge to pee. I washed my hand in the lavatory and fixed my hair before I went out. As soon as I got back to the counter, I bid goodbye to my friends. "See you when I see you!" I waved my hands at them. "Good luck on your next journey!" I heard John before I walked out of the resto-bar. I was standing in front waiting for Brent when I heard Denver called my name. "Why leaving early?" he asked. "It's already midnight, Denver," I rolled my eyes at him. He was silent for a moment and I saw him unease with both hands either inside of his pocket. "Are you okay?" I creased my brows. I noticed he was like contemplating if he will speak or not. "Hey, what's wrong?" I asked again because I felt like he was anxious. He lifted his gaze "I like you, Kelsie," my eyes broadened because I never anticipated that. "I like you since the day I met you," he disclosed and that made me uncomfortable. "Denver, are you drunk
