Chapter 37: Power Couple

I can’t sleep. Quim’s strong words still affect me. How could he say such mean words to me? He said I was playing on his feelings but I wasn’t. It was truly an honest mistake that turned stupid.

Thankfully, Bobby is here. He’s always on the rescue. He exerts effort to make me feel special. Ironically, when I wanted to return the favor by complimenting him, that mistake happened.

“I’ll have a video call meeting with Rocio tomorrow morning. We’ll discuss the content of the article. It should be very quick,” he said.

I pretend not to know about it beforehand.

“That’s good that they also give you time and not just the cover boy,” I said.

I can hear him laugh on the other line.

“Why? I asked.

“You’re really competitive. We are already dating. You can say his name any time without penalty,” he said.

“It’s fine. I don’t want to say his name anyway,” I said.

“Did something happen between the two of you recently?” he asked.

I was taken a back. My foolishness is on high alert today.
