A pain spreads across my face from the middle of my eyebrows, it wakes me up leading me back to reality.
I hold my forehead with my left hand as I feel a serious headache——it seems like I’ve been drinking too much yesterday, now my head feels like cracking.
Heck, I can’t even feel my right arm, what have I been doing with it yesterday? Do the sake bottles even weigh enough to destroy my arm?
Besides, my whole body feels so sore, just like I’ve been doing exercise for the whole night.
After I feel the headache slightly fade, I brush my hair to the back with my left hand, I take a deep breath as I try to open my eyes.
I don’t know what time it
I vaguely remember, last night, when we started to mention Dylan Watkins, I went all upset and started to drink again.I was so drunk that my head was spinning, and my sight was blurred. All of a sudden, I felt warm, and so, I decided to stand up from the floor, walk to the fusuma sliding doors and open it.There are two sides in Jamie’s room that are installed with fusuma doors, one dividing his room from mine, and the other at the opposite side opens Jamie’s room up to nature.The night wind blew above the koi pond and brought the coolness in. I closed my eyes and took a deep inhale, I then walked to the engawa and sat down on it.There, Jamie held two bottles of sake and came to the engawa too, he sat
It is the numbness spreading across the back of my head when I recall the pleasure Jamie gave me last night that pulls me back from the memory.I look at him, who is still sleeping on my arm.I hear me mumbling in his dream, “Henry… I love you…”I don’t know why, but when I hear him, tears surge up my eyes——oh my God, I’ve been waiting so long to hear him say that to me…!No! Not him! He is a girl! I mean, she! She is a girl! Jamie is a girl!Oh my God.
The time is half past seven when I come into the dining area, the tables are occupied by all the other guests, only a small round table at the corner has an empty seat reserved by a lady with extremely short blonde hair.I check my wig and brush my skirt with my hand before I walk towards it.As I sit down on the chair, I clear my throat and greet the lady with a high pitch, “Good morning, Jamie.”Seeing me finally appear, Jamie hollers, “You are so late, what were you doing? I’ve almost finished my breakfast.”Trying to cover up the truth that I was actually preparing myself mentally to meet Jamie again after everything that happened last night, I decided to come up with an excuse.
That morning after breakfast, we went back to our room and packed our luggages, however, I haven’t seen Jamie’s black lace thong anywhere. At the end, Jamie gave up searching for it too, since she has a lot of money to buy herself a new one.After we thanked Kobayashi-onesan for having us for the week, we set off for the airport and onboard Jamie’s private jet.It was almost ten o’clock in the morning in Tokyo when we departed from the Tokyo Haneda Airport. If there is no delay happening, we will be arriving in thirteen hours, which means that it will be one o’clock in the afternoon of the same day in Chicago when we arrive.Feeling exhausted from the intense sex we had last night, Jamie fell asleep fifteen minutes after the jet departed, with h
After another sunrise, I am once again waking up to a brand new Tuesday. However, just when I am about to get out of my bed and prepare for work, a notification pops up on my phone.I squint my sleepy eyes into the sharp light of my phone screen and give the notification a glance——it is a message from Jamie to her Secretary Chandelier.The message is as below, “JET LAG. Take the morning off.”And I reply, “Ah, I miss you.”…Wait. What did I reply!?“Oh no!”Swiftly, I tap
Morning at Juicy Punch, customers come and go, getting their morning fruit juice to start off their brand new day.Whereas, I am sitting at the table in the corner with the seat next to me taken by one of their staff, Daniella Greaves.I don’t know how many minutes have passed, but it feels like we have been sitting here in silence for a very long while.I used to feel so comfortable around her, but now the only thing I am feeling is guiltiness and awkwardness.Guiltiness——I have been lying to her since the beginning, I even used her kindness to allow myself to be closer to her; awkwardness——I ain’t sure how I should face her, talk to her, and behave in front of her.
I spent the whole morning at Juicy Punch, my half day off came to an end before I could know it. I had my lunch at Madam Chan’s Kitchen, returned to my penthouse, put on Henrietta’s outfit and makeup, and went off to work.It is almost past lunch time when I arrive at Jamie’s office, I see Jamie put all of her attention on her work, she didn’t even notice me when I came in.Quietly I chuckle, for kind of a mischievous reason, and also for she looks so charming when she is concentrating.I bring the lasagna and ristretto I bought from Coffee Bloom on my way here into the office, I gently place them on her desk.Trying not to startle her, I speak in a soft voice, “Good afternoon, Jamie. H
“I… I was just…”After causing a scene in Jamie’s office, I froze. My mind turns all empty, while my face is still feeling hot and painful.Unable to find an excuse for my behavior, I decide to flee.I point at the door with my quivering hand and say, “I… I’ll be waiting outside... R-ring my intercom if you need me...”In a blank face, Jamie gives her permission, “Okay...”As immediate as I hear her, I press my head down, run towards the door and escape. Swiftly, I shut the door once I got out.“Phew… That was close&h
