HIS SECOND CHOICE For Him
"Why are you going alone? Where is Asher?" Shanice asked, feigning nonchalance. If not distracted by the question, Serena would have noticed implicit spite in Shanice's tone. Her smile dimmed for she didn't know where was Asher. He hadn't even said anything about their date. "He had some urgent work after school," Serena replied. Shanice hummed. "Bummer! I thought he would take you out on a date. I mean Boys usually want to be with their girls as much as possible. I wonder what could be more important than you?" Shanice remarked, staring ahead at the road. Serena was just as clueless. Asher hadn't told her why he left today earlier than usual. If she didn't know better she would think he was ignoring her. But why one would ignore someone right after asking them out. Makes no sense. She really was also expecting some together time after school. Even a walk to bus stand together would have meant a lot for her. So yeah, it had disappointed her a lot when he left school without eve
HIS SECOND CHOICE Surprise Date
"Isn't it too revealing?" Serena asked, gazing down at her dress with a small frown. The dress was loud red and its sweetheart neckline was low enough to expose the beginning of her swell. "Honey, you are going on a date not to offer prayer in some church. The shorter it is, the hotter it is," Shanice dismissed her concern and got back to the task of applying blush on her cheeks. "Actually, Asher doesn't like short dresses," Serena shared her concern with Shanice. Shanice's forehead puckered. Asher doesn't like short dresses? That was new. He never had qualms with her wearing short dresses. In fact, the shorter her dresses got, the more pleased he became. She was convinced Serena was making up excuses to get rid of the dress. "So, you wanna go on the date in a white robe, carrying a bible? Would he like that?" Shanice questioned while applying the mascara. Serena shook her head. That would be extreme too. "No, but this dress is.." a loud sigh from Shanice cut her off. Shanice dro
HIS SECOND CHOICE Date Night
"So you are Asher I've heard so much about," Reed uttered with a hint of interest as he put his arm around Shanice's waist. Asher noticed that and felt rage welling up in his chest. Clenchign his jaw, he averted his gaze and looked Reed straight in his eyes. He didn't return his smile nor even bothered to act friendly. "And I've heard nothing about you," Asher's reply was as cold as his expression, catching everyone off guard. Reed was surprised too but he decided to laugh it off. "Oh well, then. Let me introduce myself. I am Reed Hunter....," Reed extended his hand to him while holding Shanice close with another.Asher glanced down at his open hand. "Reed Hunter" wasn't the proper introduction. "The son of our school's trustee," Asher corrected but Reed failed to notice the intent behind his words and nodded in assertion. On the other hand, Serena felt on edge as she had realized what he was doing. "Wait...you are the guy I had bumped into the other day. If not for your thick gla
HIS SECOND CHOICE Not Really Exciting
"I liked her from the very beginning just realised it now. She is sweet, kind, and, not fake like most girls," Asher answered, his eyes boring hole in hers. Shanice pressed her lips together. "Right. These days girls are all fake. From their lips to boobs to their ass," Reed agreed, sounding disappointed. Asher resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Reed was too dumb to be a trustee's son. It seemed he wasn't capable of thinking above girls, parties, and fun. "That's not true," Shanice exclaimed, faking offense. "Of course not, baby. Not every girl. You are 100% real like the diamond set I gave you yesterday. The prettiest," Reed kissed the back of her hand like a gentleman, causing a conceited smirk to appear on her lips. However, she quickly composed herself. Asher looked away, feeling nauseous. Serena smiled. "But I didn't like your comment about girls. It's giving misogyny. Surgeries don't make them fake, it enhances their beauty," Shanice debated. "Of course, whatever this
HIS SECOND CHOICE Intolerant
"Asher....." "Don't," Asher shot her a warning look, making her gulp in response. Currently, they were waiting for their cab at the roadside and he looked really mad. If they were in anime, he would have steam rising off his body. "Are you mad at me?" she squeaked. Asher gave no reaction, instead continued to look ahead at the road. She waddled closer with her hands clasped in her front. "I..I didn't mean to upse.." Asher roughly grabbed her by her upper arm, making her eyes go wide. His eyes- a fiery inferno of rage- cutting through hers. She froze. "Don't give me this shit while wearing this piece of crap," his glare shot down to her dress. She shrunk into herself. She had suspected this. "You know I don't like you wearing such dresses but you did anyway," he ground out through his clenched teeth, unconsciously tightening his grip on her wrist. Serena's eyes watered. "I..It was a date..so," "I don't give a flying shit about your fucking date. Why did you not stop him wh
HIS SECOND CHOICE His Recovery
Asher was lying on the bed with his back resting against the headboard. Serena felt as if someone had breathed life back into her. He didn't look completely fine but the color had returned to his face. His lips were not bluish anymore. She clutched the front of her dress, her throat burning as she struggled to suppress her sobs. These last thirty-two minutes were the worst time of her life. Her head and heart both were on the verge of exploding due to all the stress weighing down on her.Sensing her presence, he darted his gaze to her. Serena felt a sharp pang in her heart when her eyes locked with his. His eyes were dull and sunken, a testament to the hell he just had suffered. Because of her. Mustering up all her courage, she walked in. Asher watched her intently as she rounded to the other side and set down his glasses, phone on the table. "How..how are you feeling now?" her voice was croaky from stifled sobs. "Better," he answered, noting the tender skin around her eyes. Her che
HIS SECOND CHOICE Mr. Carter
Tom had his gaze solely fixated on his son as he sauntered in. Asher watched him with nothing but anger in his eyes. His resentment for his dad had long festered into a tumor. Now even his sight was enough to sour his mood. "Why are you here?" Asher demanded, frowning with apparent displeasure Reed lifted his brows in amusement and leaned against the wall, sensing some drama. "I called him," Serena answered, smiling nervously. Asher's features tightened. An emotional frenzy had seized her when they were taking him inside. That chilling moment was still fresh in her mind. He looked the absolute worst with his skin turning blue. She had never seen someone in such a worst state so needless to say she was shit scared. The thought of calling his dad wouldn't have occurred to her if not for Shanice who suggested she informed his parents in case things got worse. Serena was aware that he didn't have a good relationship with his dad but as he was his legal guardian, he needed to be infor
HIS SECOND CHOICE Upsetting Him
"I..I was worried..You were looking.." "Like I was going to die? Is that why you called him? If that's what you were thinking then you should have called him after I was dead," Asher fumed, grinding out the words. "He is your guardian. It wa.." "He is not my guardian. He is no one to me. And you know very well how much I resent that person. Still.....Every time I feel bad about lashing out at you, you do something that makes me lose my temper all over again," he seethed, his eyes cold and unwavering as they stared her down with indignation. His hostility caused her to hate herself too. She knew very well his dad gave no fuck about him. He would rather have him dead. She knew how badly his dad treats him. Even now he came all the way here only to ridicule him, to tell him how he was going to be a failure in the future. Her eyes prickled with tears. She doesn't cry easily. All these years of being disregarded and belittled, she had grown a thick skin but every time he lashed out at
