Anika's P.O.V The door burst open, and Laura entered in her nightwear, her hair disheveled, and her face pale, clearly just waking up. "You guys are being so loud. Can you keep it down? I'm trying to sleep you all" she yawned then she turned to my direction, noticing me. "Anny, you're here?" she asked, surprised. "Yeah, I was bored at home, so I thought of coming here," I replied as she sat on Madison's couch, resting her face on the arm. "Ooh, okay" she muttered and I couldn't help but feel that Laura's behavior was unusual. Whenever I visited, she'd be thrilled to see me and eager to share life updates but she wasn't acting the usual way she always acts. I hoped she was alright. I returned to what I was doing, trying to ignore the strange atmosphere around me. "So, what were you guys talking about that woke me up?" Laura asked, looking at Lim. "Just something unimportant," Lim interjected. "We were discussing the girl Lim has a crush on, the one with a flower name," Madis

Anika's P.O.V I found myself on the couch in my office, having finished my work, but suddenly feeling bored. To pass the time, I grabbed my phone, unlocked it, and began scrolling through my gallery. As I went through the pictures, my mood shifted when I stumbled upon the folder I had created of Richard. Without hesitation, I clicked on it. As the photo opened, I zoomed in, studying it closely. Memories of Richard flooded back, and I couldn't help but miss him dearly. His smile and everything about him – he looked so handsome in this picture. It was a photo I had secretly taken of him during our vacation when he was shirtless, looking at the sunset. I couldn't resist capturing those moments; he looked incredibly attractive. A smile crept across my face as I reminisced about all the wonderful experiences we shared. Despite everything, I couldn't help but still feel love for him. It might sound foolish, but these emotions seem beyond my control. Reflecting on all that I had done fo

Kelvin's P.O.V I sat down on the floor beside my boss, the sassy woman, who was still asleep. Even in her slumber with her eyes closed, she looked pretty. Her hair cascaded softly against the couch, and her lashes rested gently on her cheeks. As she adjusted slightly on the couch, her lips stretched, creating a charming dimple before returning to their peaceful state. Mesmerized, I watched her sleep, and when I noticed some strands of hair on her face, my fingers instinctively moved to gently brush them away. I found myself unable to withdraw my hand and, instead, it continued down her face, cupping her cheek. My thumb tenderly touched her soft lips, and for a moment, I felt the urge to move closer and kiss her. However, I abruptly stopped myself, realizing how inappropriate and wrong it would be. I let go of her face and stood up, disturbed by my thoughts and actions. "What the hell am I doing? Why the hell would I want to kiss her? it's so wrong, I don't even have any kin

Laura's P.O.V OMG, Steve was kissing me! I never thought it would happen in a million years, but it did. My heart raced as I stood there, frozen, with Steve's hands on my waist and his lips on mine. They were so soft and warm, and I couldn't bring myself to push him away. Eventually, I managed to pull away from the kiss and collect my thoughts. I wanted to ask him why he did it, to scream at him, but my brain froze, and I chickened out at the last moment. "I'm going now," I said hurriedly and walked quickly to my room without looking back at him. Once inside my room, I couldn't face anyone. I felt confused and frustrated with myself for not reacting strongly, like slapping him or yelling. Leaving without doing anything felt unreal. Back in my room, my friends Anika, Lim, and Madison tried to talk to me, but I ignored them. I shut the door, locked it, and screamed into my pillow. 'Why did Steve kiss me?' I thought. I didn't understand my feelings anymore. All my anger seemed to v

Anika's P.O.V "Really?" Richard's voice was filled with happiness over the phone. "Yes, after much thinking and consideration, I realized that I was just being selfish not to give you a second chance. Moreover, everyone deserves a second chance in life," I stated, and I meant every word. "So, you'll forget everything I did to you and accept me back?" he asked. "Yeah," I smiled. "I still can't believe this," he said, and I smiled. "You better believe it." After talking for a while and catching up on things, he hung up, promising to make it up to me and treat me right. I exhaled, still in disbelief that I was back with the love of my life. I was so happy that the guy I once loved and still love was talking to me again. It felt like a dream come true for me. My Richie is back for real, and I didn't see anything breaking us up this time. We were perfect and cute together. I was glad Richard had changed for real, and I was sure he would never break my heart again. I sighed and sm
