My (Delicious) Roommate Restricted
At first, all Emanuele does is stand still in one place, unable to make any sound or move. The images are now looping, the face of the woman in the video is identical to Emanuele's, the nose, the eyes... But this was absolutely impossible. It could only be a trick, a frame-up.Johnny seems to be contemplating all possible options for the existence of this person, but the delegate states the obvious:"Of course, like any citizen, you have the right to an attorney. But these videos are famous in the place where you live, and because of the proportion that this is taking, I'm afraid that it could also be divulged in the press. It would be more Prudent if you just turned yourself in."The former redhead looks at the lawman and speaks softly:"That's not me in the video."He almost lets out a sarcastic laugh, but the panic in her eyes is so visible that a smile doesn't even come up."I've been here in this town for months. You can ask anyone, they'll all tell you the same thing."Johnny a
My (Delicious) Roommate Understanding
Emanuele says nothing at first, just assessing Joshua from top to bottom. I wonder what he was doing there, and especially what he meant by that sentence.Johnny raised one of his eyebrows. Although they had formally made up, he would still fiercely defend her from anyone who approached.The girl cleared her throat before asking:"What do you mean?"Joshua puts one of his hands in his pockets and shows her a piece of paper.... It is the same flyer that the women of the church were handing out in the streets."I came here to lend support. I knew you were at the police station because I had time to see you getting into the vehicle on your way out of the hospital.""What? But wait a minute, how did you know I was at the hospital?""Carlos told me."The girl looks at Johnny, and they both ask themselves the same question: when? And why? Carlos had a grand total of zero reason to communicate specifically to Joshua. It would have been more plausible for the boy to have let the twins and And
My (Delicious) Roommate Joshua's outpouring
The short ride to both Johnny and Joshua's building is short and silent. Emanuele makes a point of keeping a respectable distance from the man, avoiding any kind of wrong message. The attraction the girl once had for him had now turned into a strange feeling, a kind of sorrow with resentment. Maybe even anger.Joshua seems to notice Emanuele's discomfort, and although he is saddened by this, he does not take offense or treat her differently. He just glares at her while the cab finishes its journey.When they finally arrive, Emanuele looks at the bakery across the street, thinking about everything that had happened since then. Just remembering what happened in line at the establishment shuts her face.Joshua mutters:"I'm sorry."And for the first time in her life, the girl doesn't try to sound understanding or nice. Instead, she responds acidly:"I imagine so."The short walk to the elevator is marked by a sense and heavy silence. The former bride is practically glued to the cubicle
My (Delicious) Roommate Nipping it in the bud
Emanuele's heart is beating so hard that she fears she will have a stroke right there, in front of the kneeling man.Joshua, a man more than twice the girl's height, on his knees for her. It seemed unbelievable.He doesn't seem to be satisfied yet, he seems to have a lot more to say, but the girl can't allow that. Because the weird heat, whatever it was, was rising not only to her cheeks, but other places as well...Emanuele gets to her feet quickly, trying not to stutter or look too silly when she speaks:"Look, Joshua, I'm glad to hear that you're willing to change your outlook on life and fight for your happiness, but-"He also stands up, but he makes no bones about lessening the distance between the two of them. If he wanted to, he could even brush his lips against hers."But I can do absolutely nothing about these... Hm, newly discovered feelings."Joshua's voice is lewd, even provocative when he asks:"Is that so?""Yes. I am dating now. And I love my boyfriend very much. He is
My (Delicious) Roommate Right decision
Joshua immediately backs away, a mixture of confusion and disappointment in his eyes. Emanuele sees this as a good sign. After all, at least he is going LONGER from her, and not closer.Johnny didn't deserve that, to have an unfaithful girlfriend sighing for an older man with emotional problems. Thinking back, the girl felt real shame for her past mistakes, for her lack of assertiveness. Emanuele takes advantage of Joshua's silence of surprise to continue:"I decided to take that step as soon as Johnny asked me to date him. I felt that this was the right thing to do. E... Well, now that he and I are together, and officially, it's totally inappropriate what you're telling me now."The girl seems to struggle to make her voice more fluid and less tired, but all the emotions of that day are finishing off her muscles, including her vocal cords. She continues with her venting:"Do you realize how stupid and unkind you were? You said you wanted to apologize, but you actually wanted to hit o
My (Delicious) Roommate Police car
"No."Emanuele's murmur is so assertive, despite the low volume of her voice, that Joshua immediately backs away.They both look at each other, noticing the gasping breath that exhales from both of them, the noise that sounds in the room.He miscalculated. The gleam in her eyes were not of passion, recognition, or even the attraction he was sure she felt for him. It was... Pain.The guilt in his voice is undisguisable."I'm sorry, Emanuele. I don't mean to hurt you, I don't want to hurt you. I swear."Joshua really was sorry. He should have paid more attention to the details, slowed down his own instincts. He wanted to take her for himself, to claim what was rightfully his. But how to do that when possession itself didn't feel right about it?Emanuele looked deep into his eyes.Maybe he was right. Maybe she didn't love Johnny as she should have. But that meant absolutely nothing.She had to know, though, why she was so curious about his feelings. This could not be mere chance."Can I
My (Delicious) Roommate Security Issues
Like a damn coward, Emanuele stopped walking immediately. Panicked, the girl started to look around and back, wondering whether it was worth it to run or to hide.Why were those policemen talking to Alexandra? The deputy himself had warned her that until the issue of fingerprints was resolved, she had nothing to worry about.Had the detestable Crimson changed his mind and given the order to arrest her as a precautionary measure? This could only be a terrible nightmare.Emanuele gropes her broken nose, which by now should be fine. Swallowing hard, she comes to the conclusion that running away is useless. One day they would find her, and in fact it would be worse if she resisted, wouldn't it? The girl was sure that this could add a few more years to her sentence.With slow steps, as if walking towards her own death, Emanuele goes directly to the policemen. Alexandra's eyes widen in fright at the sight of the girl."Emanuele, what's going on here? Why are these men saying you committed a
My (Delicious) Roommate The Secret of Alexandra
"What is it?" Emanuele’s murmur echoes through the air around her, like a dying man’s last breath or the final word of a condemned man before the actual execution.Alexandra is not being mean, evil or showing any trace of pleasure to see the obvious suffering of the girl. Quite the contrary; Joshua’s sister seems to be making a wise but painful decision."I’m not saying I believe you’re a... a killer. But I really can’t keep you in my apartment until all this is properly cleared up.""But I’ve already clarified everything!". Emanuele takes two steps towards Alexandra, doing everything not to show her despair, at least not in its entirety. " There’s no explanation to support this absurd accusation they made against me!""Emanuele, please understand. I am a businesswoman, I have a certain reputation and I need to look after my reputation. I don’t know how this case is being handled publicly, but I do know that there’s a small church in your own town that’s handing out leaflets out ther
