At night, I passed my son's bedroom before going to mine.Thankfully, he was already fast asleep.My bedroom was four rooms away from him.I stepped in, hoping to have time to rest, but unfortunately, that ended, when I made a turnaround and find Christian sleeping on the bed.He lifts his head and smiled at me."Samantha, been waiting for you, come let's sleep,". He pulled up the blanket.I stared at the room. Thinking that I may have gotten into his instead of mine.But it ended up being my bedroom."Why are you here to irritate me, Aaron?"I slammed and walked, navigating towards the bed.I made that statement and giggled..When I tried to take off the bedsheets from his hand, he grabbed them away from me, with a threat.Ever since I stepped my feet here Christian has been doing everything to make my life miserable but in a good way. Firstly He made me cook with so much as not enough time, and now, he left his bedroom only to be in mine.This is childish.Christian still holds

The lady directed me to another bakery shop, I asked that the same cake be made for me but they said it would only be made after two hours. I checked the time and noticed there was some time left before the party starts. I ordered them to be quick about it While I waited for the order. I waited alone constantly checking at the time. It was seven in the evening and I had less than two hours to get that done. I banged on the front counter and asked if the cake hasn't been finished yet. The lady who came to answer begged me to exercise more patience that the cake would be ready. I got anxious. There was no time more to waste. I asked for the manager to come out and speak with me.

EPISODE 1: A TALE FROM THE PAST.It had been two weeks since they gave me the most shocking news of my life. The two people, whom I had loved my entire life, had just told me that I wasn't their biological daughter, and they adopted me from an orphanage in a small town. It felt like I had lost my sense of being. Who was I, and where exactly did I come from? Who are even parents? Those were what paraded through my mind until I chose to accept the truth. I was taken care of and loved by Mr. Kent and Gracie.I may not share the same blood as her and her husband, but with their son, they've never treated me less than a human being.Christopher White. My handsome stepbrother. Christopher, when I came, was resentful towards me; he didn't want to accept that his loving parents had adopted a girl, a teenager, who had almost become a woman.His resentful pattern—I, myself, wasn't that innocent; I never liked my foster brother, and our hateful nature toward each other slowly turned into love. I
Episode 2: A FRENEMYI sneaked out of the bathroom, and no one saw me leaving. I came back to my bedroom when I received a phone call from my best friend, Lola. She calls whenever she wants something, or better yet, wants someone to accompany her to a party.I wasn't able to pick up her phone call on time; however, she sent me a message, and immediately the call disconnected.Like I said, she wanted me to follow her to a friend's party. I might be her best friend, but she has so many friends that I began to question myself and what I might be to her. You can't have too many friends," she would always say to me whenever I questioned her about it.That same evening, when I wore my knee-length gown with an opening at the back, I met Mom preparing the table for dinner with two of the maids at home."Nina, are you going somewhere?". She asked me after she took a glance at my outfit. I wasn't too sexy, nor did I dress too shabby."I am going to a party! Lola had invited me." I disclosed to
EPISODE 3: A NEW JOB.I went to my bedroom, and Christopher was already waiting for my arrival with his bossy-like behavior."Good evening, young lady. He growled after I met him, looking lovingly at my picture."Hey, what are you here? It's late." I looked at the time. It was almost midnight, and Christopher happened to be in my bedroom..."I went to the party, and they informed me you had left; why didn't you wait for me!?". He rode from resting his back on the bed...I also took a step closer and said."Nothing? I didn't want to disturb you." "Disturb me? Nina, you're not; remember, I promised to keep you safe at all times.". He expressed his desires to me and gently got a hold of my hands."I love you. Don't forget that." He bowed my head and left a kiss on my forehead. Goodnight," Nina; I'll see you tomorrow," he added, and then left me staring blindly as he went out the door.Thank God I didn't tell him of my encounter with Drake and how he let his driver beat up a man who was
EPISODE 4: CANDY CANE I came back home some minutes past ten in the night. I knew my parents must've gone to bed; they'd begun a routine of sleeping early.I went to get myself a glass of water, but instead, I met Christopher by the gas stove, holding a spatula."Good evening.".I went toward the kitchen counter, and he turned around with a smile."Nina! Glad you came." He brought the spatula to me. "What?" I intentionally pulled it away from meeting my hands."Com'on, help me make ginger tea.".He folded his mouth as if he were about to cry.Seeing that, I reluctantly got close to the pot, boiling it on the gas stove. The water was getting overboiled."Please get me a glass cup and ginger tea.". I said this to Christopher."Yes, ma'am," he says, going to the cabinet next to the refrigerator and bringing back the things I had asked for.I prepared the tea and served it to him."Here you go, sir.". I grinned."Thanks, Baby!". Christopher called me a cute name. I smiled and cross-chec
Episode 5: DO YOU REMEMBER?I couldn't join them for lunch at the restaurant; I had to make do with the snacks at the offices. After I had finished checking the documents on my table, I went with them to my boss's office; he wasn't at the office, and that gave me enough time to quickly drop the document and come out. Some minutes later, as my colleagues were beginning to return from their lunch, Taila, once again, approached my table, and she brought a box of cupcakes with milkshakes for me."You must be starving, right?". She served it on the table for me."Thanks." I grabbed her hand and gave her a friendly squeeze.She nods and goes away to her deck. I opened the box, and just as I was about to bite the first cupcake, my boss came outside and yelled my name."Nina!!!". Immediately, I let go of the cupcake, closed the box, and hurried to his office."Sir! You called?". I knocked before entering.My boss slowly lifted his head and tossed the document. I took my time and energy to
