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

Sophia CensatioI was working on my system, my whole concentration on it when I saw my siblings walked in. I raised my head and smiled at them. "Back from school." I said to them but they turned mute. I wonder what's wrong with both of them. The lol on their faces indicates something is not right also. "Stop giving me that look and spit it out," I said and continued to concentrate on my system. Janet smack my arm while Nic stood above me and stared down at me like I'd grown two heads. "Are you crazy?!" I burst angrily at her. She's becoming unbearable as the day went by. "Sophia, don't tell me you're fired already? You're fired, aren't you? Because I know, it's not possible to be home this early only if you haven't done anything wrong. You end up upsetting him, don't you? Now you're fired. How do we survive? " She bombards me with tons of questions without allowing me to utter a single word. "I'm still your eldest sister, Janet. I hope you know that?""But I-""That's enough."

Sophia Censatio"Hi there, again. It's nice seeing you again. " He said with a sheepish smile on his face. "You haven't answered my question yet Mr. Samuel, what are you doing here?"Before he could reply to me, we both her my sister's voice asking why I haven't allowed our landlord to come in yet. "Is everything the problem?" She was now standing right beside me and her eyes got widened. "My goodness! Aa... Aaron... Aaron Samuel?!!!" She exclaimed in an excited tone. "I can't believe this! You're here?! Please come in" She pushed me out of their way and drag him inside the house. I close the door and stood there shocked. Nic on the other hand didn't look happy at all. "What are you doing?!!" He yelled angrily at her. I signaled to him not to say a word and he keep quiet. Having another drama while Aaron is in my house is the last thing I wanted. "I can't believe that you're here in our house. " She commented dreamingly. "What brought you to our house, Mr. Samuel?" She added.

Sophia Censatio"It's not my fault that you woke up late, Sophia. Stop stressing me and get dressed already, you've asked me this same question minutes back" This girl just doesn't know how to treat her elder sister. Stupid!"I'm going to deal with you later, but right now, isn't the time for that." I said and jumped up before sauntering to my bathroom."I can't believe she's my eldest sister. She's lucky she's older than me, I would have scolded her life and made her see right from wrong" I heard her say.What?"I heard you, you little rat!" I yelled so she could hear me."It was meant for you to." She yelled back laughing.Brat! Whenever my mind went back to what happened days back between her and Aaron, I kept on wondering if they knew each other from somewhere and I have no idea because they seemed to like each other at the spot. Two idiots!I took a quick shower, brush my teeth and walk out of the bathroom. But, what caught my eye was the neatly beautiful dress lying on my bed

Sophia Censatio"Wait." I pick up my bag and my mini-system before we both ambled downstairs and entered the kitchen.Nice hug me and he wouldn't let go that moment. "Hey! What's wrong with you?." I asked him, stunned.Both my siblings are acting weird this morning and I don't know why. "Good morning, Sophia." He said."Is there anything you two are hiding from me?" I asked the moment I broke the hug. "Sophia, don't tell me you still have no idea of what today is?" Janet asked. I laugh at her question. "What are you talking about? Okay guys, stop acting weird and tell me what the problem is" I hissed and rolled my eyes at them."Sophia, today is the day! It's your birthday." Nic exclaimed excitedly and stunned. "Wh.. what?" I hurriedly brought out my phone and check the date. Yes, they're right. It's on the 16th of March. Oh my goodness! I can't believe this. How could I have forgotten that today is my birthday? Janet went all the way to get me a dress yet, I never noticed. "

Andrea Salvador"Why?! Why don't you want me to talk about her? Why are you taking her side? I thought you wanted to use her just in the same way you've been using other girls after we broke up. Do you like her now?."Use me? How? Their break up? Were all those kisses and the way he looks at me not real?"What nonsense are you saying?! Of course, I don't like her! let's not continue with this discussion, okay? Just leave."" Why are you pushing me away, Aaron? Do you still have feelings for me? Does your heart still beat for me, especially when I'm close to you?."" Stop getting silly ideas in your head. Nothing as such is ever going to happen between us again."" You sure about that? Even after this?" She moved closer to him and kissed him.I widened my eyes and suddenly felt a pang in my chest. To make the situation worst, he kissed her back. I could move my leg, I so desperately wanted to leave but I can't seem to move my body. I'm trying so hard not to tear up right now. Suddenly,
