Lean On Me HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
When Claire went to work, she found herself thinking about everything that had happened that morning. She didn't want to go to work on her anniversary.She knew that some of her employees would know about it. Some would be expecting that she would sit it out, spend the day at home, or do whatever she wanted to do with her husband since they always gave off the vibe of a happy and loving couple.If there was a function to attend, Lucas always made sure he went with her. They usually smiled for the camera and acted like the lovey-dovey couple. But only she knew that once they got back home, Lucas always returned to being the cold and uncaring husband whom she had done everything possible to please without success.Everything that had happened in the morning really hurt her. It was one thing to humiliate her when they were alone; she always swallowed it. But doing so in front of his friend?First of all, he brought his friend into the house without telling her. She ended up making a fool
Lean On Me ENJOY YOURSELF
After Claire ran into her room, she went back to her bed, crying until she eventually got tired.Seeing Asher in the house upset her because it was a reminder of how much she had sucked, not only in Lucas's eyes but also in anyone close enough to find out about his marriage.Apart from her hunger, she lay on her bed, not wanting to come out of her room. She had no intention of having a conversation with Asher. But then again, thinking about what he had said, she began to wonder if it was a good idea to speak to him. Yes, the way they had met was humiliating for her, but Asher didn't try to make fun of her for it; he was even willing to hear what she had to say.Was it possible that he could talk to Lucas for her? She didn't know how good their relationship was because she had never seen him with Lucas or heard anything about their relationship, but she was desperate at this point.If telling Asher about what she was going through could help her get through to Lucas, she was willing to
Lean On Me WHAT'S YOUR ENDGAME?
That night, Claire cried herself to sleep. In the morning, however, she told herself she couldn't stay at home. She felt that staying home would only make her more depressed, but she didn't have a close friend with whom she could share her feelings.Growing up, her father had been her closest friend. She was also close to her mom, but her mom was a bit strict. With her father, she could share anything she wanted. She didn't make many friends in school because she was focused on becoming a successful businesswoman like her father, Alex. He was her role model, and she sought to imitate him.However, when she finally realized she could make friends outside, it was too late because she couldn't keep up. Though she had some general friends, there was no one close enough. She eventually preferred it this way because she felt ashamed to share her marital problems, especially after portraying her marriage with Lucas as perfect.While getting ready for work, she heard Lucas arrive and glanced t
Lean On Me GAME ON
Claire spent the night in the hospital. She asked Asher to go back home since he had already seen that she was fine and she did not need him to babysit her. However, Asher refused, insisting that he was going to stay in the hospital with her.Throughout the night, he sat on the chair, staring at her. He only slept when she eventually fell asleep.When she opened her eyes, she saw him still sitting there. For the first time since she met him, she felt touched. Of course, she didn't understand what he was trying to do, but outside her parents, it was the first time she had ever received so much care.It was painful that it was coming from the person she did not expect, and it was also worrying that he was Lucas's friend. But she suddenly felt as though she had found someone she could share her burdens with."Well, he did say he was going to be here for a short time. Perhaps talking with him may help her situation, and it might also help me feel better."After the doctor discharged her th
Lean On Me CLUBBING
After Claire spoke, Asher's phone began to ring. He stared at his screen, shook his head, and quickly ended the call.She observed his actions and asked, "Is it something important?""What?" He asked, moving closer to her since he couldn't hear her over the loud music."I mean your phone. You just hung up on someone. Is there something important?""Oh no, nothing really," he replied.He noticed that Claire was staring at him, curious for more information.He continued, "Well, I told you about when I arrived. The first night I came here, I went to a club. I'm sure you must have heard from my conversation with Lucas that I'm a player with a reputation. So, I went to the club and met this girl. We hit it off immediately and had a passionate night together.""In the heat of the moment, I gave her my number, which is something I regret now.""I see. So she's calling you, and you find it disturbing?""Yeah, I mean, I'm no longer interested. The thing is, she was even the one who approached m
Lean On Me KARAOKE
Claire and Asher became so engrossed in the movie that and did not say a word to each other until the movie finally came to an end."Wow, that was really interesting," Asher said."Told you," Claire replied, "you should know me, I don't settle for mediocrity.""Well, I just learned that when it comes to movies, you have such an amazing choice."His phone at this point rang, and he looked at the screen to see that Lucas was the one calling him. He stared at Claire for a while and answered the call."Yes, hey Lucas, okay, I'll be right there."After the call ended, he turned to stare at Claire with an apologetic expression on his face."What is the problem?" she asked, "you said you'd be going there, and it's fine. Why are you looking sad?""Well," he said, "I'm sure you already know that that call was from Lucas. He wants me to go out for a drink because he wants to introduce me to his new girlfriend.""Oh, I see. It's fine," Claire said."You know he's my friend," Asher replied, "so I
Lean On Me I DON'T WANT TO TALK
Asher drove the car and took Claire back home. Once they arrived in front of the house, his phone began to ring. He stared at the screen and said to Claire, "I need to see someone briefly; you can just go ahead.""Although our day didn't turn out exactly as we had planned, I still want to think I had fun," he continued."I had fun too," Claire said. "Although I ended up crying, at the very least, I sang, and it was an experience I had never gotten before.""I'm happy for you," he said. "So, alright, I'll see you later when I get back.""Okay," she replied. "Umm, you're going to see a girl? You said you want to see someone."He laughed. "Well, I know I said I'm a player, but no, this is business-related. If you want, I can tell you about it once I get back.""Oh, no, there's no need," she replied. "Just go ahead and do what you have to do. You can take my car, by the way.""Thanks for this," he replied.She came out of the car and went back home, while he drove away in her car.When she
Lean On Me I AM DONE
Asher kept holding Claire in his arms until she finally fell asleep. Once she was asleep, he carried her into her bedroom and gently placed her on the bed. Afterwards, he picked up his phone and called Lucas."Where are you?" he asked, and Lucas answered the call."Elm, I'm at the club with Vivian. Why, is there a problem?""No, there's no problem. It's just that I'd like to see you.""Okay, then just come over. Let me give you the address."Lucas forwarded his address to Asher, and the latter got ready and drove Claire's car to the bar to meet with him. He arrived at the bar and noticed that Lucas was alone."I thought you said your girlfriend was here.""Yes, she is. She went to get something. She'll be right back.""Okay, that's fine."At this point, Vivian finally arrived. When Asher turned and saw her, his eyes widened in shock. She also seemed surprised when she saw him."You?" Asher asked.She smiled, pretending not to know him. Lucas stared at the both of them in surprise."El
