"Alright, Lily. Let's not talk about it. I want to rest my mind even just tonight," Cristiano told me. I nodded and poured wine into my glass again. I was suddenly embarrassed because maybe he really didn't want to talk about it, and I opened the topic about it. "I'm sorry if I gave an opinion, but you're right. Let's not talk about it. We're here to relax and chill," I replied to him. He didn't speak, so I drank wine again. I also just realized that the wine that Marcus gave me as a gift was delicious. When we meet again, I will request that he buy me something like that again. "It's alright, Lily. I also asked about your love life, so it's fine that we talked about mine," said Cristiano. He came to the table and poured wine into his glass, so I just watched him while thinking about what could be our new topic. I can't tell him to go home because I don't know anything we can talk about there. "Does the wine taste good?" I asked him. "Yeah, yeah! Actually, it tastes good. Your
When I called Stella and Marcus, I said there was an emergency and they needed to come to my condo. They didn't ask for anything else because they quickly left their house. "Maybe those two will hate us when they find out that we just pranked them!" Caroline said, laughing. She's starting to drink now, so I'm not in the mood to drink hard drinks. That's why I'm drinking the wine that Cristiano and I have left over now. "If I don't say it's an emergency, they won't come here," I said. "That's right. It's still hard to invite those two, especially when it's this late," Caroline answered. The two of us just drank there while waiting for our two friends, and I told her everything that happened to me that whole week. At first, I was too shy to tell her what happened to me and Cristiano, but when she opened up about it, I just followed her. I just can't believe that the world is really so small. Can you believe it? That the man that Stella's dad was dating for her also had a one-night
I still can't really believe it. I want to know why Cristiano had to deliver food to my condo. "Didn't you ask why he brought me food?" I asked Marcus. "Nope, but he said he only passed that so you wouldn't have to cook your breakfast this morning. He thought you were alone," he continued to tell me. I nodded and calmed myself down because Marcus might still notice that I was enjoying it there. "Tell me the truth, Lily. Are you and Cristiano dating?" he asked me suspiciously. I was surprised because of his question. I almost hit him on the arm because he was thinking about something. "Of course not!" I answered immediately. "How did he know you were here alone? Was he here last night?" he asked again. "How can he come here when you three are here?" I asked him sarcastically. "Before we got here, I wouldn't judge you if he was here last night. In fact, I'm even happy because I know you're very happy because you're with your crush," he continued. "What are you talking about? H
I left Liam there, and I don't know if he will wait in my office or if he will just wait for me to call him later. I didn't even get to ask because I was in a hurry to leave, but my office is open for him. I'll just ask Janeth later where Liam is waiting for me. "Good afternoon, ma'am, architect!" I was surprised when I got to the parking area; Romel and Benz were already there. I raised one eyebrow and looked at the two of them, whom you thought were not bodyguards because of their appearance. "Wow! You've returned to your duty to watch over me?" I asked them, laughing. "Yes, ma'am, architect! Did you miss us?" Benz asked in a joking voice. I laughed and shook my head before answering. "Actually, no. I suddenly felt sad when I saw you again," I answered in a joking voice. "It's terrible, architect. Why?" Romel asked. "I'm just kidding. I'm just glad that you guys are here again. Just don't get too close to me," I said. "Yes, ma'am, architect. You can count on us," they answe
"I know that, Liam, and if I still like Cristiano, I know where my boundaries are. Believe me or not, I really don't like Cristiano anymore," I explained to him one after the other. Cristiano doesn't need to be included in our conversation because what we need to talk about right now is ours. "And let's not talk about him. What we need to talk about is our current situation," I added. "I don't believe that you don't like my brother, but that's okay. Don't let your heart go away from me," he answered me. "Of course not. You're still my friend, Liam. Nothing will change what we had before. I hope you're the one who doesn't stay away from me because I can only give you friendship," I replied to him. "Of course, my heart won't be far from you, Lily. It's not important to me if I'm spoiled or if I have hope for you. The important thing here is that I told you how I feel. I can't keep it a secret anymore, especially from the two of you and Lucas," he continued and then shrugged his sho
A few weeks have passed since my problems happened. I also got involved in Regina's issue because she accused me of spreading that video, but I immediately made up my mind with Liam's help. He handled the case there and proved that Regina had no evidence to accuse me, so it just went back to her. She is the one who has been charged with oral defamation, which is why her management's head hurts so much. "Architect! Are you ready later?" Trisha asked me. I am in the office today, and we are busy with some work. We're finishing it because Stella asked to go out for a night because it's the weekend. I refused at first because I'm not in the mood to party right now. I'm also feeling a bit bad because it's only once our group is complete that I have no choice but to go with them. "Yup," I replied sparingly. "I think you're moody today, architect. Are you all right?" Wendy asked me. Both of my eyebrows were slightly raised, and I immediately shook my head because I didn't know that they
"Lily," Liam called me.Lucas was no longer by my side because they were able to dance on the dance floor while I stayed at our table with our other friends there. The chips that Lucas bought me have run out, and I have a few glasses of juice."Liam, what's up?" I asked Liam.He was standing in front of me, which is why I had to look up just to look at him."Are you alright? You've been eating that for a while now, haven't you, and you don't want to eat unhealthy foods?" he asked me.When he saw that I must be having trouble looking up at him, he sat next to me. I saw him looking at what I was eating there, but I just shrugged my shoulders."Yeah, but it's only once," I answered him."Are you hungry? We can eat dinner if you want," he said.I stopped there for a moment and felt myself, then nodded to him because I still felt hungry even though I had eaten a lot of chips. Maybe chips are not enough for my dinner."I guess you didn't have dinner before coming here?" he asked.I grinned
I immediately ran to the bathroom because my stomach felt different. I immediately sat on the tiles and threw up in the bowl. I was weak there, and I could almost feel my body shaking. I was just vomiting there, even though nothing was coming out of it. When I finished, even though my body was weak, I forced myself to stand up to wash up. My eyes are red because I almost cried from vomiting. This is normal for me because I used to be like this when I had a fever. I just sighed and decided to take a shower because I was already in the bathroom. I took a short shower there because I was afraid that I might get dizzy there, so I just dressed in comfortable clothes and lay down on my bed again. I hardly touched the food that Mommy prepared for me, and I just slept there. I woke up immediately because someone called my phone, so even though I'm not in the mood to answer calls today, I still insisted because it might be about work. It was Janeth who was calling me, so I answered. "Hello?
