A Desire To Last A Lifetime 34- "Obligation."
I struggled to be freed from Fabio’s grip but to no avail."I'm your boss. You are obliged to follow whatever my order is, and now, I'm telling you... let's go."Instantly, my worry turned to anger. I know he's my boss, but I know there's a limit to everything in the world and that includes him giving an order on me on my freaking day off!"Yes, you are my boss but it's my day off, have you forgotten about that? And holy cow, we're not even inside of your d*mn premises so I can do whatever I want whether I follow you or not!"Finally, those words seemed to have made him back to his senses and he let go of my hand.I caressed the part of my hand that he just had a grip. “We’re not in your office and don’t forget I’m not your secretary today so I don’t have any obligation to you and you just can’t dictate to me what should or not should I do! I know my basic human rights so don’t start with me your bullsh*ts!”He didn't speak, and just stared at me while I snapped all of these things at
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 35- "Impatient!"
Venice, for the nth time, made me laugh. Such a clown!“You know what? If that’s what you want to believe then fine! Inject that in your delusional mind as your daily dose and live with it forever. I don’t care and I don’t have to explain anything to you, especially since your empty brain couldn’t even comprehend any word I say, so what’s the use, right?”She glared deadly at me. I grinned. The heck I was threatened, like ‘Oh! I’m so scared!’ Really. Cough, sarcasm.As a response, I looked at her from head to toe. I couldn’t even seem to figure out why she was head over heels for Christian and ready to pick a fight with any girl who would get close to him and she would see them as a threat including me, of course, like it’s so obvious! Why does she have to be this insecure when in fact, from an honest perspective, she has actually got a pretty face, too. She looks good with that straight bob-styled hair with full bangs and then with her cleavage-showing, short and hugging dress, and
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 36- "Too hard."
Despite being totally annoyed, I still managed to be cool…"Alright. I’m sorry. I'll be just back later on when you’ll call me." I was about to turn around to go outside when the Deputy General Manager immediately interfered."Tamara, it's fine. Give it to him,” she gently instructed, referring to the folder I was still holding.Fabio, sitting at his table, stared at me with a blank expression.I smiled at Natasya and nicely shook my head. "It's okay, Miss. I just come back later.”“I assure you, it’s no problem, Tami. After all, you went all the way here to give that to the General Manager, right? So, go ahead.”I was hesitant but ultimately decided to adhere to Natasya. What she said was accurate. I intended to send this.Averting my eyes, I walked over to my boss's desk and placed the folder on.He gave me a long, blank stare at me before finally reaching for the folder on the table and opening it.He frowned as he delivered his eyes on me again.As expected!Somebody as wicked as
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 37- "Stained."
Deputy General Manager turned to me.“If it were me? I wouldn’t really allow somebody to do that, Tami. Even if he’s my boss. If I were in your shoes, I would’ve even thrown those papers right in his face!” She softly chuckled with her own joke as she continued to speak for me.I faintly smiled in response. Actually, I was already thinking of doing that before she could mention it and I was only waiting for my temper to completely lose and gain all strength and anger to throw these papers at the General Manager’s evil face.Meanwhile, Fabio still remained with that poker face as he was looking at me and then at his sister, and then at me again.“Now, give that to him, Tami, and you can go back to your desk because for sure, you still have many other things to do than printing papers and keep on going back and forth inside this office for Fabio’s unending demands.”I followed. A bit hesitant when I looked at him and he was staring at me blankly, I put the folder on his table.Natasya g
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 38- "Gold-digging."
I was a bit startled by how she could afford to be this harsh on me in front of other people who were already having their attention on us both. For the love of life, she was even belittling me!D*mn! This is very scandalizing and shameful!No matter what, I chose to remain cool and extend my patience to not be rude publicly.Alright, so she didn't want the money for the laundry and she even bragged about not mind buying another dress because she could obviously afford it, so why still fussed?"Then at least let me pay for the dress you'd be buying in replacement of that one I stained so that I could make it up to you and we could be quits," I still offered.She laughed as if that was the biggest joke she ever heard. "I doubt you could afford its price, girl."I couldn't speak anything anymore since I knew she had a point. In my current life as of this moment, I work hard for every single centavo and without the connection of my family and the money from Davis, it would be hard for me
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 39- "Oral defamation."
Chantal was wearing a maxi dress, white stilettos, and a signature bag.I could proudly say that above the three beautiful women in front of me, Chantal was the one shining the brightest among them because she was obviously pretty not only from the outside but also from the inside. The beauty of the soul truly radiates a lot.Effortlessly, she was an attention-getter, without even trying to be one but naturally, she absolutely was. Men at their respective tables, with or without a partner, glanced her way. Even some women were mesmerized by her charm. And restaurant workers, for a moment, also took a glance at her whenever they passed by."Get over your insecurities and start genuinely loving yourselves, both of you, come on!" Chantal advised Venice and Priscilla.The two couldn't say a thing and looked away in embarrassment. Karma, karma, karma… What comes around, goes around!"It's never somebody's fault that she was born a beautiful person with a beautiful figure and surely, a beau

In the end, everybody chose peace and it was the two witches that adjusted to the situation they first created. Venice and Priscilla volunteered to be the ones to get out of the restaurant and just find a new one while Chantal and I stayed and ordered our food to eat. "Thank you for being there and for siding with me, Chantal. If it weren't because of you, perhaps we were still talking about their absurd, false, and irrational attacks even up to this moment," I thanked her from the bottom of my heart. She smiled her kindest. "It's alright. I just couldn't really stand it when women were harassed and publicly shamed by other women. How I hate that!" "And that's why your calling has always been to protect women. You are a hundred percent destined to be a lawyer which you are doing now. It totally suits you and you are extremely perfect for your chosen profession." "Oh, that's too much of a compliment, but thank you, Tami. So sweet of you!” I smiled. Our food had been finally served
