Ariande"Ariande" Chloe said, coming over to greet me and I grimaced slightly when she pulled me into a hug."What are you doing?" I whispered into her ear."Being cordial or would you have liked for me to just pass you by?" Probably"It's been a little while since I saw you", she pulled back, smiling, and I nodded. My director moved on to greet some other people after greeting me and I wondered what was going on between them. Knowing Chloe now, I could guess.I smiled back at her though and sipped my drink, "yeah, it feels good to see you""Well... Oh, nice to meet you..." she stretched her hand towards the celebrity beside me, who was quite surprised and they shook hands."I'm Chloe""Maya, it's nice to meet you too.""Well, I have to go. I'll see you around, okay?"She walked away, and I grabbed another drink as I finished the one in my hand."Isn't that the lady that stole Mrs Parker's husband?""Mrs Parker's husband?""The man that was just with her, it's all over the news"I did
SofiaAunt Layla had finally been found. When Aunt Carter had told me about her disappearance earlier that day, I had gotten confused and wary. Did she run away again without telling me, but she wouldn't have done that without taking her son. What could have happened? All those thoughts had run through my head until she told me they had found her.I closed my locker and made a mental note to visit her in the evening. I still had a class to have before the day was done and that would be it, but before I could make it to the next class, a hand pulled me into an empty classroom and I gasped at Charlene."Charlene, what?..." She silenced me before I could complete my sentence with a kiss and I melted into her arms. We had been doing this quite a lot and even done some other things, but we hadn't gone all the way. I wondered why."What do you say to making this official?" She asked when she pulled away."W-what?""What do you say to us dating openly and doing all those cute things that cou
AriandeI was on the set for my new film and it was hectic. This one was a movie this time around, not a series, so we should be done in about a few months if nothing goes wrong.I put on my outfit for the first scene, which the costume designer had picked out for me and Jeremy handed me my phone, which I looked through while the makeup artists did their work.Tony and I had been keeping in contact since the accident with Layla, even before that, and I could say we had gotten pretty close. He hadn't mentioned his attraction to me again after my whole rejection and it had made me realize that I had really lost his love. Now he was just having sex with me because he was probably still interested in that... I wouldn't know.I stood up from the chair when the make-up artist was done and I went to the green screen where the male lead was already waiting. As it was partially a fantasy film, green screen was going to be used and a lot of computer work.I collapsed on a chair, exhausted after
Ariande"Who do you think it is?" Jeremy and I both stared at the bouquet my secret admirer had sent to me again on set. It had no name like the first one, and it was getting ridiculously mysterious at this point."Maybe the lead actor."I glanced at the male lead who was in his own world with the makeup artist he was flirting with and shook my head,"No, it's not him.""Then one of your other colleagues in films"That was possible, but I had someone else in mind."I'll just have to find out myself.""How?"I shrugged, "through private investigating, I'm really curious, and it could be a stalker, so it would be worth my money to find out who it is.""And what will you do after you find the person?""It depends on the person."I smelt the flowers, loved the scent, and walked out onto the set where we were to shoot another scene.We finished with the scenes for that day and I got into my car exhausted. "Home right?" Jeremy asked."No, I want to make a stop at the mall.""What, you want
SofiaThe words on my locker were alarming, with the posters making my heart skip a beat and I ripped them off, trying to keep the content hidden. That was me and Charlene kissing.Who could have gotten it, and in a secluded place at that? I had made sure no one was looking when we walked into the empty class that day, but I guess we weren't the only one who had been out of math class that afternoon.I noticed the stare of people as they walked to their various lockers and next classes and I could hear their whispers too. She's a lesbian. She and Charlene had been dating. It's disgusting to actually be dating the same sex. Who would have thought she was so...I tried to block it out, cleaning the derogatory words with a wipe and got my books before I walked to the library. Eugene met me on the way there, "Sofia, are you okay?""Yes, I...""Jeez, people are so hypocritical, like what is bad if two girls find themselves attractive? I'm sure there are even more lesbians in this school, b
Ariande"You still haven't figured out who is sending you the flowers yet?" Tony asked as I sat on the island in his kitchen. He had a bowl in his hand as he mixed chicken with mashed potatoes and I shook my head."No. I plan to use a private investigator though, because it could be a stalker and..."He nodded and smiled, "I understand.""Why did you invite me for dinner though?" I asked, surprised, since I hadn't been to his house since the last time I was drunk.He has only ever come to my house since our altercation and had sex with me. Nothing else, no dinner, no nothing, not even a drink, so what had changed that?"I just needed company to eat with today.""Oh" I felt honored even though I shouldn't, and I watched him intently as he started frying the mixture together on a bone stick.It was crazy just how much he had invaded my head. It was like I couldn't think of anything else but him and I deserved it because it had been the other way around. I had manipulated him at first, p
KaiI wasn't sure what to expect as I walked into the family house with Leo and Layla, and I was definitely surprised at the number of people that were there.Isn't that the famous actress, Ariande? And Leo's friend Tony, who were the couple that were looking about the same age as Leo's parents in a corner there too? There was also a grandma and grandpa too. Guess I had a lot of family."Leo honey" The Grandma greeted him, pecking him on the cheek, and he greeted her back. The woman also greeted Layla and a younger woman came to greet both of them too. Grandma stared at me, "and you're...""Oh you must be Kai, right?" The younger woman said, making me guess that she was Mrs Cooper, and I nodded."It's nice to meet you""Nice to meet you too", I shook her outstretched hand."This is Park Woojin, also Kai, Steve's daughter". Grandma looked confused."Steve didn't tell me about having a daughter.""Kai, meet Nana, your step grandmother and your step grandfather over there too."I greeted
LaylaThe designs were created within weeks and the collections were out together for another week. I looked through the portfolios of models that had been placed on my table and decided on the ones that we were going to use for the fashion show and campaign too.Amanda and Henry came in from New York to help with the process and a date was given for the fashion show. As for the campaign, I supervised the photo shoot and video shoot of the collections, and it was posted on both the models and CARTER'S official website as well as social media handles.I was going through one of the documents when my secretary came in, "this young lady...""Aunt Layla!" I looked up from the document to see Sofia rush in, and she was looking all bubbly and happy. I signaled the secretary that it was okay, and I gave her a big hug."Hey girlie, how have you been?"She smiled, "good""I heard you were in trouble" she smiled again, but this time more mischievous."It wasn't my fault that somebody wanted to
