19BustedI look at Arthur and Flora when we send them to the door. Mom holds my hand that made me look at her.“You should stay the night, sweetie. I miss you plus tomorrow is weekend you don’t have work.” She said.I nodded. Mom look suspicious earlier and if this makes her not suspicious I will gladly stay for the night.She took me to my room and I smile as I see my bedroom, it’s still the same of how I left it. It’s full of teddy bear and pink things.“We left it how it is. So when you’ll come here you’ll still sleep here and feel like you’re still a kid.” Mom chuckled that made me hug her.“Thanks mom.” I said and kiss her cheeks.I run my hands through my bed and look at every painting I did that’s hanging on the wall. Every drawing I did on my sketchpad. I have a bookshelves that’s full of my sketchpad, at a young I started drawing and I kind of miss it.It’s still in my room, and when I open my walk in closet it’s full of designer’s clothes and some of my gear equipment that

20AwayI look at dad who’s looking at me intently while I’m doing my work together with Flora. I’m back with training again and dad become more strict after what he discovered last time.“You’re dad must’ve did this staring to shoo your suitor.” Flora said to lighten up the mood. I don’t know if dad can hear her but I just chuckle as I reply. I don’t know how can I continue to work with her but at this point I have gone numb.Dad is constantly observing me especially when he’s calling Arthur on to his office. He usually wait inside his office but now he comes out and wait for him and would look at me like he’s looking at me right now.“Emily!” I sigh as I saw mom walk towards me. She gave Flora a kiss on the cheeks then to me before going to dad. They went to dad’s office like they’re discussing some business inside but I know that they’re probably talking about me.Dad was angry when mom sent me home and even went to my apartment looking angry but mom manage to calm him down.“You’r

21Together I look at Flora and Arthur as they are holding their hands while we’re sitting. I can’t believe I’m here at the bar with them. I didn’t even imagine this day would come and what’s worse is Flora is clingy at Arthur that made me want to throw a tantrum.“Relax.” Jessie whispered while giving me a drink.“How can I?” I said as I drink the alcohol in one shot.“Woo! Emily is back!” Nathan laugh as I get another drink and drink it in one shot.“You should slow down, you’ll get drunk easily.” It’s like the world stop when Arthur said that. It made our table silent and Flora looks at me.“Arthur’s right.” Flora said and lay her head on Arthur’s shoulder while Arthur looks at me with a warning. I gu

22Bond I just woke up and I don’t know how to tell Arthur that I’m ending our agreement. I scoff, I didn’t imagine that I would be the one ending this. I thought it would be him when he realize that he still love his wife but it’s the other way around.I sigh and get off the bed and decided to stay in the kitchen until he wakes up.I was drinking coffee when he got up and just like me he’s looking at me with confusion in his face as he approach me. We both don’t know how to feel now that my parents found out about us.He sat beside me and hug me while kissing me shoulder blades but I stayed poker and I didn’t waste any more time and straight told him my decision that made him get off me.“Are you serious?” Arthur looks at me with rage.“It’s for the

23OH! Nathan“Why are you getting beat up?” I asked while I dragged him to my condo. He needs to get treated.I can’t believe this right now. What if I didn’t show up? He could’ve been dead right now. Oh my! I don’t even want to imagine that.“Answer me.” I said as I pushed the right button of the elevator.He doesn’t and look straight ahead. It made me nervous because the happy and witty Nathan is nowhere to be found right now. He looks so serious that it’s scaring me.“Are you okay?” I asked while I hold his arms to support him. He’s kind of heavy but I can manage.He just nodded and didn’t say anything until we arrive at my condo. I made him sit in the living room while I get the first aid kit.I sigh as I look at Nathan who’s spacing out. I went to the kitchen and get some ice. He’s not badly injured, he has bruises and a small cut on his face below his eyes.“Care to tell me what happen?” I said as I sit beside him. I put the ice of the bruise and made him hold it in place while

Dad sigh when mom awkwardly said sorry to them when they left.“Don’t do that again.” Dad said and kissed mom’s cheek as a greeting.“Sorry. I was just shock to what I witnessed.” She said and look at me.“I told you there’s nothing going on between us.” I said and crossed my arms but mom shook her head.“No, I know there’s something. Does he like you?” “No he likes someone else.”“Who are you talking about?” Dad asked looking confuse.“Nathan.”“You and Nathan? Arthur and him are best friends.” Dad said that made mom’s eyes wide.“What? What have you been doing Emily? If you like him from the start you wouldn’t have any problem now.” Mom said and dad nodded.“I don’t like him that way. We’re just friends.” I said.“Then why are you spending your time with him instead of working?” Mom crossed her arms and raised his brows.“Because he was doing me a favor and comforting me.” They lo

25QuitI went to work a little late today because of the traffic only to found an empty desk. It’s been two days since Flora last went to work and I’ve been doing all of the work. I don’t know if this is great or not because silence is making me scary and right now it’s really silent.I put my bag on the table and when I was settled I started working, while doing that I notice Arthur enter dad’s office. He stop and made a little eye contact before going in the office. I bit my lips and try to concentrate on my work instead.I’m never going to get used at his stares because when I look at it I feel like he’s saying something by just looking. I also wanted to ask if he has any contact with Flora but I stop myself from doing so because I have to stay away.“Good morning.” I look at mom confuse when she smil

26Hi?“Are you two sleeping behind my back?” Arthur asked that made Nathan choke.“Hey! The beer is going out in your nose.” I said stopping myself not to laugh.He gave me a deadly look before running to the kitchen, leaving me and Nathan in the living room. I look at him and there’s no reaction on his face that made me nervous.“Answer me.” He said still standing.“No, we’re not sleeping together. I just visited for a drink.” I said and consciously cover my legs using a throw pillow. “What are you doing here?”“Visiting my friend that’s now apparently your friend now.” He said and sit beside me and I move to the side consciously. “I didn’t know you kiss your friends.”I pouted and look away. He get himself a beer that’s on the table at the same time Nathan return. Thank god because I can’t last anymore minute alone with Arthur.Nathan gulp before sitting on the seat in front of us. “I didn’t know you were visiting. You could’ve told me.” Nathan said and continue to drink like this
