Look At Me, Oneil CLXXII. Insatiable Heart
Victory has sided with Melissa in the show jump event of the Grand Prix. It has granted her a better chance to contact Oneil and remind him about the race course they can attend to spend with the weekend break. “I’m sorry to inform you late that I have other plans for the weekend,” Oneil politely said. “Oh, so you can’t come here?” Melissa responded but dismay is already sounded through her voice. “Were you avoiding me? I was just hoping that we can get along? Didn’t I invite your cousin too? She was supposed to join us.” Oneil explained that he was not trying to get her too troubled. But he also has to attend work. “Why not try to see your schedule and where you would be heading?” Melissa suggested excitedly as if she knew his day well. Oneil followed and the statement there matches the venue set by Melissa. “Wait, does this mean that you are the client of the Oda Infrastructures?” Melissa chuckled. “No, please. I’m sorry but I’m just someone who referred your company to my fr
Look At Me, Oneil CLXXIII. Considerate

She didn’t care if it is Melissa who had troubled her at the complex. The things concerning herself are one thing. But anything to Oneil is another. Such a thought of him being surrounded cluelessly by Melissa’s technique to join the dinner of the race course makes her blood boil down the core. But she has mastered the art of calmness, her façade couldn’t even show that part of reality from within her. Except of Geovensia, no one else knows about her low key jealousy.“What do you want to do after this?” Oneil asked while smiling sweetly at her. He has a towel with him and by this, he kept on taking of Essi. “Wait up, you still have some sweat on your forehead.”Essi’s eyes cunningly glanced at the glass panel of the house where she met Melissa’s reflection watching at them. Never in her life did she wished for
Look At Me, Oneil CLXXIV. The Equestrian Rival
Oneil was never fond of assumption. But he could feel one when there was something odd going on. When Melissa had been too attentive to befriend him, that is when he knew that he must keep his walls even stronger to secure Essi’s affection for him. He was glad that his favorite Queen Calista’s is can still accommodate his reservation within that day and are more considerate to him when he called for the date to be moved.While waiting for Essi’s late night response on his chat, he proceeded to look at Marika’s phone. It had been in his possession by Grant’s permission. There was nothing special in it except that it is filled with many photos of him and Marika. As much he doesn’t to remember this woman anymore, he needed to be careful about what he is wishing for. He cannot afford to lose his loved ones again. So he kept on viewing the phone especially on its gallery panel. But his attention were not anymore to the unimaginable closeness he had with Marika declared by the photos, but t
Look At Me, Oneil CLXXV. Challenging the Fiancée (Part 1)
It was too much for Melissa’s chagrin to find out that Oneil would never consider anyone’s affection for him anymore. It was an outright rejection and stings more because Oneil chooses to love the girl that Melissa disliked the most. But it never meant for her to give up.She always believed that Oneil must have a weakness, a particular melting point. Once she would find that out, Melissa will make sure to utilize that knowledge to the best of her advantage. She is not yet sure if she is already on the way for it. Hence, she remained in her friendly smile in every time that she would see Oneil. While it is obvious that she is already hurting her schedule, she would visit the building of Oda Infrastructures as frequent as possible.Melissa already lost count with her number of visitations. So the current one could only remain as an nth. Her armor was her red-painted lips. Her ready potion was her words. Her best invitation is a dinner reservation for two. Melissa tried all her best to
Look At Me, Oneil CLXXV. Don't Stand In Her Way (Part 2)
When they already arrived to a five-star restaurant, Oneil made sure to prepare Essi’s seat. Essi only said a typical thank you. For Melissa, it was as if Essi is not impressed to Oneil’s gallantry. Essi even ordered the most expensive beef dish.“That is your favorite, right? Vintage cote de beauf?” Oneil asked with gladness and thought of requesting the same as well. “And Syrah to pair this.”“Are the two of you leaning towards expensive meals?” Melissa doesn’t like the rib steak. If she has to join them, that would make her credit card already problematic.“I miss this kind of steak since my mom often prepares this for me,” Essi said. “It’s not just about being expensive.”“Oh really?” Melissa nodded to let the blabber get by.“Show me a great deal here then that doesn’t have to be characterized by the price,” Essi challenged.Melissa knows too that the star of this restaurant is the rib-eye steak. Even if the roasted salmon is the most affordable among all dishes, she knew that it
Look At Me, Oneil CLXXVI. Mysterious Protectiveness [VOL 7. Issues of the Empire]
Just like ordinary and not busy days, Essi gets to visit Oneil again to the building of Oda Infrastructures. It has always been among Essi’s routine to talk first to the higher officers before she could arrive to her intention of talking to Oneil. Although they are situated two departments apart, Essi and Oneil still glanced at each other amid their talk towards the other people. When they at last got their rendezvous, Essi hurriedly meandered towards him while holding her bag modestly. Oneil on the other hand, opens up his arms to hug her. Essi didn’t hesitate to engulf herself in this sought out embrace. They went together towards the right wing anteroom where the high ceiling could allow them to see the urban night of Bordeaux. While they were seating, Oneil took out a long velvet box and gave it to Essi. “For you,” he said casually. “You should open it.” Essi smiled upon seeing a bracelet with Akoya pearls and emeralds. “Oneil, this is so pretty.” “Do you like it?” Oneil is m
Look At Me, Oneil CLXXVII. Strict and Caring Image
Behind the strict image of Latifa Mercator is a caring and broken person. Essi was entailed with the vividness of the scene that night. Latifa was quick to pose an figure of a delighted mother taking care of her son. Essi couldn’t help but feel bad about covering the incident of Oneil’s amnesia although such a deed had already been long forgotten.“You seem pretty too occupied today,” Victor noticed as he closes the door of Essi’s home office. “Were you worrying on how to handle our overseas schedule again?”“It’s not about that. It’s not like it should be new to me,” Essi stated and proceeded again to think deeply.“Are you in conflict with Oneil again?” Victor was trying to figure it out by himself but Essi was just too subtle on her gestures. He is never sure if she needed help. When Essi slowly looked up to him, that is when his senses start to kick against his silence when he would just let Essi and Oneil deal with each other alone. He would want to get Essi just to protect her f
Look At Me, Oneil CLXXVIII. Assumption and Understanding
It was hard to remove the idea of what can The Carolus Foundation do to Victor to help him about his desire. For many days that he thought about it, he still couldn’t make the most decisive call to Latifa. Maybe it is because he is afraid of what kind of acceptance his biological parents would give him once they saw how Victor turned out to be. But he knew that he is more dreading to a possibility that such a word acceptance was never pre-existing at all. Because if this thing is real, they should have tried to find him.“But what if they do?” Essi asked him.It was hard for Victor to not tell this to Essi because he knew that this woman had been more looking forward for this day of reunion to come. Essi is more enthusiastic than Victor. Her voice keeps on pulling about the good sides of the what ifs.“What if the search was always there but only as a parallel one?”Victor lets Essi’s word to come together in his mind while he tried to think deeply where should it be possible to meet
