Jenkins wanted to make himself a cocoa drink when he noticed Jason and Stella at the counter. If he was Charles, it wouldn't be a good sight to see. But the good thing is, he wasn't.
It wasn't his thing to listen to other people's conversations that doesn't concern him. And so he decided to leave but before he could, he heard something interesting that made him stay. It was Jason just being uncool talking to Stella.
Seeing this brought some ideas into Jenkins' mind. If he starts seeing a woman from Stella's class, would he be able to express himself like Jason is right now? But dear him! Where could he find some woman of his age? He'd find himself a girl, not even a proper lady!
"What are you doing there, Jenkins?"
Hearing that, he instantly turned and saw his twin sister Trixie. She was nothing like him. Trixie was always trying hard to be like Verna.
"Nothing. I just wanted some cocoa but the adults are having a conversation." H
After Stella helped with Trixie, she went back to sitting with Jason. She enjoys hearing his side of the story. And she's in her third cup of ice cream. Doctor Akira said she shouldn't be eating too much of it but she loves it."Trixie and Jenkins are so sweet," she told Jason as she opens her ice cream. "It should be nice having a twin brother.""No, I don't think Trixie thinks that. Plus, Jenkins was always the best between them. If she tries to compete, she knows what'll happen.""Are people here always competing with each other?" she asked and Jason nodded. "Why? Why do you always compete? Is to be the heir?""I don't want to be the heir, amber eyes." He chuckles, displaying a lopsided grin. "You might think I'm lying but I don't want to be. There's more to want, more things than just to be an heir."But that doesn't answer all of her questions. There was one Jason chose to ignore, chose to be silent about."What made you tak
It was already dawn when Charles came home. He had lots of things to take care of at work so he can get days off and spend time with Stella. It has been a long day that when he got inside their room he just tossed his case and his necktie at the chair. As he walked toward the bed, he took off his clothes leaving only his boxers and slides in the blanket.As soon as he lay, he noticed how Stella was on the edge of her side. She’s never that far from him, not even when he is home late. With no other choice, he moved to her side and carefully put his arms around Stella. One was above her waist and the under was under, then he slowly pulled her close.Stella turned around, groaning softly as she lifts one leg and rest it on top of Charles. It made him smile, gazing at her sleeping face. Then he moved in and stole a peck on her lips before closing his eyes.The next morning, Stella woke up gazing at Charles
In the bed, Stella kept staring at Charles’ face with a smile on her own. They had fun showering together and her mind is pretty calm now. Her worries were all worth it.“Do you want to go somewhere today, baby?” Charles asked her with closed eyes.“No, not really,” she answers, feeling the hairs on his chest. “I just want to be with you and talk.”“Are you still worried about Andrea?”She looks up at him, her lips pouted a little. “A little. Andrea is pretty and very classy. Plus, she’s your first love. They say guys don’t forget their first love.”“We don’t but we get over the feelings.” Charles turned sideways to hug Stella. “It doesn’t matter to me who is my first as long as you are my last, I am pretty much good.”Stella giggled
Like they planned, Stella and Charles stayed inside their room the whole day. They played some games in his old play station, watch some movies and just talking about their past while making love in between.For dinner, Stella and Charles wanted to have it at a fine restaurant but it was announced that Felius had something to say and wanted them present in the table. With no other choice, they decided to stay.Now at dinner, every one was present. Food were being served differently and Stella was wondering like the others what was up and why their dinner was apart from the other. But no one dared to question first. They had to wait.In the middle of dinner, Felius catches their attention by clanking his fork on a glass, making a bell sound. They shifted their focus on to him and he looked at them back with a smile.“I requested everyone here because during my morning, Mr. Andrews received an invitation.” He let them know. “The Virmich had invited the Castigado for their party and I wo
Stella wasn’t as surprised as Andrea. The bitch really did come to visit Charles. How brave of her, Stella thought.“Why are you here? Do you have any business with Charles?” Stella asked right away. “He wasn’t expecting you to come.”“I’ve been coming here often,” she uttered. “Where is Charles?”“In a meeting,” Stella replied. In her head she really wants to cat fight with Andrea and drag her out. Where does she even find the courage to come in his office after getting rejected? “What’s your business here?”Just out of nowhere, Andrea let out a forced laughter which was very obvious. Stella had to raise an eyebrow.“My presence scares you, huh? You know I’m too much and you’re here because you’re scared that Charles might leave you to be with me again.”Thick face, Stella thought. She is rather feeling sorry for Charles now than her getting scared of Andrea taking him away. This girl is being too much and thinking too highly of herself.“Nah, I’m worried you’re wasting your time try
After the meeting Jason had together with his parents, he decided to unwind in the streets of Akane. While he was walking with his ear pods on, someone just suddenly took his hand. He was so surprised that he shoved the kid away.Good thing his reflexes were fast and he caught the little girl before her butt falls down. Then he stood her up and he knelt down because the little girl just started crying.“Why are you suddenly grabbing someone’s hand?” he asked softly. “Who are you even?” Well, he doesn’t know how to deal with kids.“I thought you were my dad!” she continues to cry, now sobbing and sniffing. “I lost my dad!”In such times like this, he gets to have a sideline. That’s cool but where the hell should she send this little kid.“Do you know where’s your address or where you are headed?”“No.” She shakes her head side to side. “My daddy told me to wait by the park but I thought I saw my mother and ran. Now I am lost.”“And you thought I was your daddy?” He sighed heavily. Jaso
Three days before the Virmich party, Stella came together with the girls again to buy their selves a dress. She was about to reject the invitation but suddenly Jennie backed out and so she decided to go. Plus, she wanted something hot for that party. Something sexy but elegant and not so revealing.Like the previous one, they took long in that store. And when they finished it was already noon. So, Verna told them they should just eat out. And they went to a quite ordinary restaurant.Just as they were having their lunch, one new customer came in and suddenly Marie yelled something. Annie was fast to react, covering herself with the menu while Marie squeals. Verna was her usual don’t give a fuck state while Trixie and Stella wonders.“It’s Annie’s crush, Luis!” Marie exclaimed.To take a better glimpse at the dude, Stella leaned backwards and
In an old apartment, Amunie was rushing down the rusty staircase, hoping that her mother won’t be able to catch her. When she was out of the compound she immediately raised her hand to get a taxi and once she’s inside, she told the driver to speed away. She was catching her breath, a hand on her chest.She doesn’t have any money with her and all she could think of was to go and borrow from Trixie. There was nothing in her mind but escape the beating her mom was giving her. And she told the driver to the Castigado.The guards recognizes Amunie but the problem is that Trixie wasn’t home. Now, she feels nervous about paying the taxi. How will she pay?“May I ask if Jenkins is at the mansion right now?” she asked the guard.“Hold on a moment, ma’am.” The guard holding the telephone tended the call. It took him at least two minutes to get back to her. “Yes, the young master is at home. Would you like
