“I APOLOGIZE if I'm being impolite, but what is your name, Miss?” Robert inquired as to who couldn't keep his horses any longer.
The lady cast a glance at Robert, but quickly removed her gaze and returned her attention to her soup.
She replied, "Sittie," after taking a spoonful of soup.
“What—”
Robert was about to finish his sentence when he felt Kai kick him in the shin under the table, causing them to look at each other. Kai shoved his head against Robert, telling him to stop asking Sittie strange questions and to concentrate on his food. Robert followed Kai and shoved a heaping spoonful of rice, bacon, and sausages into his mouth. After such large bites, his curiosity continues to pique, and a slew of questions arise in his mind, to which he seeks answers. He knows he won't get an answer from Kai; he's the type of man who will keep his silence if he says he won't tell anyone anything. But Robert is not the type of man who will stop until he has satisfied his curiosity, so he will find a way to answer his questions, and no one will be able to stop him from asking this stranger lady in front of him.
“Do you happen to be Kai's girlfriend?” Robert asked Sittie, without a hint of hesitation, to look at him straight in the eyes. But Robert is adamant, and he didn't give Sittie a sidelong glance and level his aura with her. He waited patiently for Sittie to respond.
“No.” Sittie responded by lowering her gaze into her soup.
“If not, what is your relationship with Kai?”
“Nothing.” She didn't bother to look at Robert when she replied.
“Do they keep something from me? Why does it feel like this is a scripted scene?” Robert questioned himself as his brow wrinkled. He became even more curious, so he bombarded Sittie with questions incessantly.
"Do you happen to be Kai's sister?"
“No.”
“Cousin?”
“No.”
“Are you one of his women?”
“No.”
“Then tell me who you are.” With great frustration, Robert inquired.
“Sittie.”
“Shit! This conversation isn’t going anywhere.” Within his head, he cursed.
Robert's mind is racing; he desperately wants to know what and who Sittie is and why Kai would bother bringing her to his house if they have no special connection. He knew Kai wasn't just any ordinary guy who would bring a lady into his home, which is why Robert is curious as to why there's a lady in his friend's home all of a sudden. He knew Kai would never bring a lady into his house, especially if it was just to beat her up all night. He didn't want to. Though Robert knew he'd get nothing from asking Sittie, he was desperate to continue. Perhaps if he kept bombarding her with questions, he'd get a clue.
“Are you his daughter?” he asked, not even thinking about it. Sittie locked her gaze on him and gave Kai a direct look before blinking her eyes and returning her gaze to him.
“No.”
“So, where did you come from?”
“From my father's cum,” she replied without flinching.
Robert can't believe Sittie answered him without shame.
“Are you truly human?”
“Obviously.”
Damn!
Out of frustration, he asked, "Who exactly are you?"
“Sittie.”
When Sittie answered his questions, he made a face palm. She's straightforward, uncomplicated, and devoid of emotion. Robert has the impression that he is conversing with an artificial intelligence (A.I.). He's not sure what his reaction will be or how he'll interpret her; is she being sarcastic to him or is that just the way she is?
"Oh, my God!" he moaned.
“Robert, stop embarrassing yourself,” Kai interjected as he sipped his coffee.
Looking at Kai, Robert's eyes narrow, filled with doubt and frustration.
“How come you guys can't tell me the truth? “What kind of relationship do you two have?” he enquired.
“Nothing.” They responded as one.
In his curiosity, Robert can't help but kill himself. While his mind is troubled by his curiosity, Kai silently looks at Sittie, who is eating the food he made for her. Kai kept staring at her until she felt Kai's eyes on her. He simply gave her a sweet smile to dispel her apprehension about his gaze. But, before facing him, Sittie put her spoon down and wiped her mouth with a table cloth.
“I sincerely apologize for what occurred last night, and I appreciate you feeding me. Please accept my apologies if I caused you any inconvenience,” she stated flatly.
“It's fine; you don't have to say anything; I'm happy to help you,” Kai replied with a smile.
“However, it is not acceptable,” she said, her voice cold and resolute, drawing Kai and Robert's attention to her.
“What do you mean exactly? Isn't there anything you can do—"
“Shut up! Listen!” Sittie said commandingly as she stopped Robert from speaking.
Sittie's voice, as well as her aura, abruptly changed, and she looked Kai in the eyes with seriousness and authority.
“If you didn't mind helping me last night, so it's the other way around for me; I don't need anyone's assistance, so please don't bother or approach me the next time our paths cross; I just hope we never see or touch again,” she said as she stood up in her chair, emotionless. Straight walking out of Kai's house.
Kai and Robert were left speechless by what had occurred, but Robert, being a man, couldn't help but wonder, especially if his mind began to generate questions.
"Kai—"
"Will you pause, Robert?" Kai abruptly came to a halt, his face flushed with rage.
“But—”
Kai gave Robert a stern look, but he's not the kind of man who gives up easily when he has something to say.
“Do you think it's okay for her to go outside with that look?” he worriedly asked.
Kai had only just noticed Sittie's outfit. He dashed to his room, grabbed his coat, and dashed out the door to catch up to Sittie. He noticed Sittie waiting for a cab on the side of the road and quickly approached her, wrapping his coat around her.
“Could you please tell me what you're up to? Isn't it true that I have yet to clear e—”
He silenced her. “I'm covering your body, and I completely understand what you're saying,” he explained.
"So, what are you up to?" Sittie inquired, her brows lifted, in a shrewd and quick-witted manner.
“Everything is for your benefit. I don't want you to get a cold or be stared at inappropriately. “I'm just trying to keep you out of trouble,” he said with a smile.
“I assumed you were aware of what I had said, including the fact that I did not require your assistance,” she said sharply, taking off the coat that Kai had wrapped around her.
“Stop being stubborn and just use this.” Kai then put his coat back to Sittie's body and hailed a cab.
Sittie shifted her gaze to Kai. "What are you talking about?"
Kai ignored her and opened the cab's door and gently pushed her inside.
“Wait, what—”
He placed his index finger on Sittie's lips to silence her, but she quickly grabbed his hands and pulled it away from her lips.
“Put an end to this act. I'm aware of what you did this morning!” she said, her gaze fixed on Kai's face.
“And I'm glad you like it,” he grinned and winked at her.
“Fuck—"
“Shh... It's not pleasant to hear that word, especially coming from a woman like you. Keep an eye on yourself.” He gave the cab driver a sidelong glance. “Drive her safely, Sir.”
Sittie is about to complain when Kai quickly closes the cab door and moves away from it. When Kai finally saw the cab leave, he walked back inside to his house, but after a few steps, he looked back in the direction where the cab had vanished.
“This sensation...reminds me of something.”
WHEN KAI enters his house, he immediately turns his gaze to Robert, who has a silly grin on his face. “Wait a minute, Kai, what was that? You seem to have a strong attachment to her?” Robert inquired, a teasing tone in his voice. “Stop it, Robert,” he said flatly. “Are you sure there hasn’t been anything—” “I told you to stop!” Robert was stopped by Kai, who spoke authoritatively and glared at him. “Woah! Wow! Man, calm down! You don’t have to be so agitated. I’m just curious why you’re so upset about it.” Robert indicated his surrender by waving his hands in the air. Kai returned his attention to his food after clicking his tongue. While Robert continues to stare at him, he can't help but wonder. “But don't you find it odd? Why was she behaving in this manner? Does she have an attitude problem?” he wondered aloud to himself. “Is that the new way to say thank you?” he sarcastically asked, turning his gaze to Kai, who was preocc
She patted her forehead after she realized what she had done. She quickly fix herself and went to the sink to wash her sappy fingers. When she was standing in front of the fridge, she felt a sharp ache in her head, which caused her to kneel and hold it with her other hand; the ache was unbearable. Her head appears to be on the verge of splitting in two. However, after a few moments, the soreness vanished and she felt much better. So she gradually raises her face till she regains her proper posture. She saw her reflection on the fridge door directly in front of her when she was able to stand up straight. She definitely saw herself, and she couldn't stop staring at herself in the reflection.“Are you suffering from a hangover?”After hearing Blessie's voice, Sittie turned away from her own image.“Uhm, yeah,” she replied quickly.“I'm sorry, Sittie, if you have to put up with this mess,” Blessie murmured, her face flushed
AFTER A LONG WALK, she had already arrived at her house. She went straight to her room, and her attention was drawn to the folders scattered on her desk, so she filed them all together. Her attention was drawn to a picture on the edge of her desk after she had fixed her folders; it was their photo of Sittie and Blythe, and seeing it made her feel uneasy.. “If you’re truly sorry for everything I’ve gone through, take a deep breath and reconnect with yourself. Blessie, fix yourself so we can live our lives in peace. We have the option of returning to our former selves. You know you’re the only one who can make Blythe and I vanish from your life; you’re the only one who can make it happen. You may live in peace, and we will never have to deal with such difficulties again.” Sittie's words echoed in her thoughts, causing her to doubt and bemoan herself. “Sorry, Sittie, but I don't believe I can do it,” she said quietly to herself. “Please, save me.”
KAI was few steps away from Blessie when he turn his gaze back to her and watched her from a distance. He carefully watch her, she seems to be different from the last time he saw her.“Maybe I’m just over reacting things,” He grumbled and walked away with a smile on his face—an inexplicable satisfaction that he can't disguise.“What's up with that grin on your face, Kai?” Robert asked Kai when ran into him on his way out of the kitchen.“Nothing,” he quickly answered.“Kai, why are you keeping me in the dark? Isn't it true that we're friends?” Robert stated in an overly dramatic tone.“Stop it, Robert; don't get yourself into trouble by being curious about anything. You're behaving like an old hag who gossips,” Kai spoke without reservation, ignoring the fact that his remarks would offend his friend. And then proceeded to the kitchen to double-check and prepare the ingredients
HALF AN HOUR before the wedding event, Kai and his team had already completed the dishes that will be served. Gregory, his sous-chef, was given the instruction to begin dishing out the entire menu at each station right away. Gregory obeyed Kai's command and quickly assigned each station chef to their respective post based on their area of expertise to monitor and answer the guests' inquiries about the cuisine they had been served. Kai looked for a place to relax after ensuring that there was no more work that needed to be done and that Gregory followed his directions. He was drained from the event's long and arduous preparation. It was nearly dusk at the time, which made him feel even more weary. He began to wander around the resort looking for a spot to relax when his eyes caught a glimpse of the hammock under the shed of a coconut tree that was not visible to the guests who were present at the event. He take big strides to get close enough to the hammock to lie down, but h
Their faces were filled with joy. Blessie felt as if she were witnessing a movie of her childhood recollections. Happiness that clearly demonstrates love and care, however, those beautiful, significant, and joyful pictures of her past began to collapse and shift away, where the young her was avoided and left all alone by other children. “Don't leave me alone,” whimpered bylittle Blessie. “We don't need you! You're crazy!” “Why? I've done nothing wrong—" "Stop! Having a freak as a friend is not something we enjoy! " yelled and screamed the little mean to Blessie as she yanked her friends away from Blessie. "Please don't leave me," she begged. Blessie experienced first-hand, with her own two eyes, how her classmates ignored and rejected her when she was a kid. Tears streamed down her cheeks one by one. Inside that classroom, none of her classmates tried to approach her. They leave her alone in the corner and treat her as if she wer
"Summer has only just begun, and temperatures are rising faster than usual, but that hasn’t stopped XYLO at the Palace from filling the entire venue with loud, hypnotic music, and colorful dancing lights. Everyone is engrossed in the lively, modern music played by the attractive DJ. While everyone else was having a good time, a hot young man sat in the corner of a glassed VIP room, savoring every sip of his favorite ‘Jameson,’ attracting the attention of the ladies outside the room he was in. While the guy was watching the crowd, he noticed a group of girls who were staring at him and giggling, making cute gestures to catch his attention. “Found my target,” the guy says quietly as he smiles at the group of girls who are staring at him and squeals at his simple smile. The young guy never took his gaze away from those three girls until they couldn't take their coquettishness any longer and approached him where he was. “You look so lonely, baby; do you mind if we join you?” The girl wi
The nightlife has never been so quiet. Everything remains the same; only I have changed.Kai let out a long and deep sigh after gulping the entire whiskey in his glass. He was being devoured by the thoughts that were racing through his head. He can't stop thinking about it, so he pours another whiskey into his glass and sips it down to the last drop. Regardless of how many glasses he had, it appears that whiskey is just water to him, as it never caused him to become inebriated.Hours passed until he had finished one bottle of whiskey and was about to order another when the bartender informed him that the bar would be closing soon, so he just went home. He paid for his drink and walkto the bar's parking lot, where his car was parked. He looked up at the dark night sky, which was filled with billions of stars that shone brightly in the darkness. He was gazing up at the night sky for a while when he noticed a shooting star. Without further ado, he takes his
