Aaron SamuelFully aware of my anger issue and yet, provoke me at every given opportunity she's got. I know, I haven't shouted this much at her ever since I knew her, I can only scold her and that's all. Neither does she do her work properly or do things right. She better be lucky because of what we had else, I would have shown her the other side of me. I watch her stare at me with an unexplainable look, she looks pained. I have no idea before she ran out of my office. Good riddance- I softly muttered and shook my head afterward.Trying to forget about what has happened, I decided to concentrate more on my work and switched off my CCTV system. Not quite long after that was done, my phone started to ring.It's Zoey!"Hey, baby." He said in a girly tone."Fuck off, you idiot! Beth mustn't hear you say this, she would kill you." I said rolling my eyes at him even though he can't see me. All my friends are foolishly in love and neither can I consider the girls bad. I just hope it las

Sophia CensatioNot only has he been a jerk to me but also his mother. Now, I have no idea if I have done the right thing by setting up a meeting with his mother. What if, he gets upset at me and does an unthinkable thing to me?for a moment, my heart skipped at the thought before I decided to drown myself in work again.I was still working on my system but I feel famished already and It was prompt 1:00 pm. Saving the already work in the system, I got up to go get something to eat at the cafeteria opposite the building. I don't think, I can hold in the hunger anymore and, I just realized I haven't taken anything since morning. I was in a hurry and left without eating anything. I might end up fainting any moment from now if I continue this way. I put on back my jacket, my phone, and my wallet into my bag and got up to leave. For some strange reason, I looked around again hoping to see the camera he has installed here. A while ago, after I yelled at him, he hadn't called back since t

Aaron SamuelWe both arrived a few minutes later and hopped down from the car however, she is still silent.I hate to concede, but I missed the annoying her. We both walk towards the entrance of the building and suddenly, she stopped me. "Wait! Where are we?." She asked."You should be able to read, sweetheart. Of course, you went to school." I said pointing towards the banner hanging on the wall up the building. "Stop calling me that. I have a name. I'm not your sweetheart" She hissed. "Ouch, you wound me, sweetheart. I bet no one has claimed you yet so, why can't I?" I teased her. I always find joy in teasing her. There's this strange feeling, this excitement I get whenever I do. Those killing eyes, though. She looks hot right now."I won't fall for your games." She hiss and I shrug off my shoulder.I don't care!"Why did you bring me here? This is one of the most expensive restaurants in town. I'm not like you, hope you know that? Why would you bring me here in the first pla

Sophia CensatioI dropped the menu and remembered I made a promise to his mom about letting her know her son's whereabouts. I brought out my phone and drop her a text. Still confused about why he won't pick up his mother's call. Not only has he been a jerk to me but also his mother. "Is there anything going on? Why are you staring at your phone continuously? You can't tell me your phone is much more important than I am.""Stop teasing, it doesn't suit you." I rolled my eyes as I said that."But you know I wasn't lying. You can't resist this look. " He said arrogantly. For somewhat reason, I look around and saw lots of girls squealing and drooling over him already. Some were glaring my way ready to murder me if they were opportune to."You're just lucky because you got a beautiful gene from your parents and that's all! "" You really won't cease to amaze me. " He commented and a waitress came to take our order. "Hello, handsome." She greeted him, sexily. I looked at her from head

Sophia CensatioI was about to take the last bite of my food when my gaze fell on this beautiful and classy woman who walked in with a sunshade on her face. I sat there and opened my mouth in awe.I can't believe I would set my eyes on her someday. "What are you staring at?" Aaron asked me before following my gaze. " What the fuck?!! Mom!!" How the fuck did she get to know I'm here?." I heard him curse. I swear Aaron got his beautiful gene from his parents. I believe I was right when I said that to him earlier.She scan the whole place and smiled at us when her gaze fell on her son. I hurriedly stood on my feet and bowed to greet her.She walk elegantly towards us, took the shade off her face, and took a seat across me. Never in my wildest dream, would I have thought I would be sitting across one of the wealthiest women in the country. Not only that, but she's also beautiful. I knew she would be beautiful but, not to this extent.Her skin looks so soft too."Mom, what are you doing

Sophia Censatio"Mom, stop it! That's enough! At this point, I think I can't take this anymore. Don't you get it? You can't choose for me. I can't believe you're emotionally blackmailing me, mom! This is wrong! You know, I will always listen to anything you told me and that's why you're doing this." A deep sigh left his mouth and he look frustrated already. "Mom please, stop controlling my life! I can take decisions on my own, I'm not a kid." He beseeches her surprisingly in a calmer tone. I stared at him confused. Just a few minutes ago, he was yelling and now, he's calm. Bipolar!"If you don't want me to keep pestering you on the same issue repeatedly then, you do as I've asked you to. Okay, agreed you believe no one is good out there enough but, I believe we already have someone perfect for that. And she's here with us" "What are you talking about?." He questioned, confusedly. I'm as curious as he was. Who is she talking about?"Sophia here, she's a great girl! I believe, she's

Sophia Censatio"Of course, you can't expect me to exchange words with him in presence of his mom. What would she think of me." I rolled my eyes even though, she can't see me.I got up to get the files I'd been meaning to work on before that jerk walk up to me and forced me to go out with him."Are you going somewhere?" "Erm.. yes, I need to get some files downstairs" I answered. "You see the more reason why I told Mom about you. Look, Sophia, you're going to make a perfect partner for Aaron. You're just too sweet" She praises me. "This is not the time to make me feel on top of the world, Tia. Plus, you should have informed me ahead before doing anything behind my back. I was lost earlier! I looked like a fool." "But you're not. Don't be like this, Sophia besides, I never knew he would be mad at you for no reason. I had thought, he will listen to mom believing he had something for you. I mean, you told us he kissed you, not once but twice. I had thought, he felt something strong f

Sophia Censatio"May I remind you that you're stuck with me for the next years so, you can't escape me? You think I do not know what you're trying to do? I won't fire you, Sophia, you're in my lion's den already and you can't escape it." He said arrogantly.How dare he claim me like I'm nothing?! I'm not an abject to acquire without any respect! He needs to accord me some respect. "You don't own me and I'm not an object that you can just acquire as you wish" I hissed as I said that. "It's pointless having this conversation with you. But remember this, everything going on between you and that boy needs to stop" He ordered. "What?. " "I hate repeating myself, Sophia. "" How could you sit there calmly and dictate about my life to me? You can't possibly tell me what to do and what not to do. This is my life and it's none of your business! Stay out of it!" I glared at him as I said that. "Do not test my patience, Sophia. I do not want to. see you around that boy again and that's fina
