During the days Sabrina was on leave, Jessica came every single day. Sabrina didn't expect her to act so fast to try to get to know Josh better. She didn't even mind asking him out. Sabrina couldn't spend time with Josh alone like she wanted to. Jessica always made Josh laugh and he always seemed to enjoy her company.
Sabrina dressed for work looking gloomy. She stood in front of the mirror, buttoning her shirt. She sighed. She didn't enjoy her three days because Jessica was always there. But she knew Josh would never agree to go out with Jessica. She used that to console herself.
After she had dressed up, she went to the dining room. Josh and Daniel hadn't started eating. They were waiting for her. "Good morning." She said smiling. She sat down.
"Good morning." Josh and Daniel said in unison.
Josh's phone vibrated on the table. Before carried his phone, Sabrina had already seen the caller. Her face darkened. So now Jessica had already started c

"Is that why you are sad?" Sabrina nodded, rendering Sabrina speechless once again. Alicia could only sign and say. "It's okay. Im sure Josh is just hanging out with her because he is bored. I think he should get a job, that way, Jessica won't be around him." Sabrina's eyes brightened hearing what Alicia said. "Yes! That's better. They won't spend time together." Alicia clicked her tongue and flicked Sabrina's forehead in annoyance. "Ah!" Sabrina helped, gaining the attention of the three men in the office. Jack shook his head wondering what they were always gossiping about. Alicia rolled her eyes. "What kind of love do you have for him that you are more concerned about him than your safety?" Sabrina massaged her temples. She only smiled, not answering Alicia's question. She also asked herself that question sometimes. Maybe love was really blind. Josh was at the balcony, satisfying his eyes with the
He sighed and put the phone back into his pocket. He decided to walk home since nobody will still be at home. Sabrina and Alicia arranged their desks as they prepared to head home. They went down the elevator when they saw Derrick. Derrick's mood brightened when he saw Sabrina. "Hey Sabrina." He said while smiling till his eyes turned crescents. "Oh, hey Derrick." She slightly nodded with a smile. Alicia waved her hand across his face. "Hey. Derrick I'm here." Derrick chuckled and rolled his eyes. "Yes Alicia, how are you?" Alicia laughed. "I'm fine Derrick." "You guys are going home now right." He asked. "Yeah, Daniel is coming to pick me up." Alicia said "Oh. I can go with you both. Sabrina suggested. Alicia shook her head. "He is taking me home. He is spending the night with me. Alicia winked. Sabrina glared at her for being so shameless. Derrick clear
Sabrina widened her eyes in surprise. She didn't expect Josh to think she would ask him even if she wanted to. Josh knew she wanted to ask him about how his day went with Jessica but she was to embarrassed to ask. Sabrina licked her lips and blinked multiple times. She tucked her hair behind her ear and gulped. "Ho-how did your day go with Jessica?" She couldn't control herself from asking! Josh's lips curved up. "It was nice. I wish you were there to watch the horror movie with me. Jessica is not really a fan of horror movies." Sabrina felt electricity run through her body hearing what Josh said. 'He wished I was there!!' She finally relaxed believing Josh would never agree to date Jessica. Yes, she likes Jessica but, Jessica should not go after the person she loves even more than her life. "Hm." She split nodded. She tried to his the smile that was twitching iys way out of her lips. "Then we went to other places like restaurant p
In an abandoned factory past midnight... The factory was completely dark. A figure climbed up the dusty stairs. The crunchy sounds of the broken cements on the floor was heard from his footsteps. It reached a door and opened it. On the walls were pictures of Sabrina with Josh, some with Derrick, Daniel, Alicia and even Jessica. Sabrina's pictures filled the whole room. There were pictures on the floor, but the room wasn't brightly illuminated. The figure didn't enter the room. It stood outside while holding the door knob. It's fist tightened on the door knob. It brought out a knife from its pocket and in one swift move, he threw the pocket knife on the picture of Sabrina and Josh, directly on her forehead. The figure gently closed the door and left. Sabrina stared at the ceiling as she was lying on her bed. She was thinking of going back to her house. Josh and Daniel had helped her more than she could imagine. She turned to lay on her side. She was still scared to go back home but
They stayed in that position for a long time not saying anything to each other. Their mind filled with different thoughts. Sabrina fell asleep again while resting her head on Josh's shoulder. Her hold on his arm was tight as she was fast asleep.Josh was still wide awake. He didn't move so as not to wake Sabrina up. He stared into space for a long time. He later turned his neck to look at Sabrina who was deep asleep but her grip on his arm was really tight. He had an helpless look on his face as he sighed deeply. He whispered while looking at her. "Just say it." He sighed again and rested his head on the headboard before he closed his eyes.The next morning, Josh had already left Sabrina's room since last night. It was a Saturday so, Sabrina was still asleep.Sabrina later woke up in the afternoon. She must have been really stressed throughout the week. She came out of the room to the living room to see if Josh was there. She went to the living room,
"Where is Josh?" Sabrina asked as she wiped her tears. Daniel remembered he last saw Josh when they were outside. "Uh..he must still be outside." "Hm." She nodded and left to see Josh. Daniel watched her leave to go outside. He sighed softly before he went upstairs to freshen up. Sabrina came outside. She saw Josh resting on the car, him arms folded across his chest with his head faced down. Seeing him, Sabrina eyes turned moist. "Josh?" Josh raised his head up immediately he recognized Sabrina. He stood straight when he saw her standing across him. "Sabrina." Sabrina didn't know what came over her. She ran towards him and also pounced in his embrace like she did for Daniel. She already knew the reason why they were not available but her mind wasn't at peace. Josh didn't expect the sudden hug. He staggered and hit his back on the car door. His arms wrapped around her slowly knowing the reason why she hugged hi
At last, Sabrina had already reached upstairs. She could see Josh who was in the balcony. She slowly walked towards the balcony, and she felt she was nervous for no reason. She finally reached the balcony after a while. Josh's grip on the railings were really tight while his eyes were closed. "Josh?" Sabrina softly called out his name. She noticed when she called his name, his grip on the railings loosened and he moved a little. He slowly opened his eyes but he didn't look at her direction. "When do you want to leave?" He asked. Sabrina was rendered speechless. How would answer his question. He actually wanted her to go or what. Sabrina was angry for a moment until she remembered what Daniel had told her. She sighed before she said. "I don't want to go anymore. i'm sorry for suggesting that. I know you care a lot about my safety." Sabrina moved closer to Josh who was quietly listening to what she was saying. "It's just that i was..i felt i was a burden to you
