"Right here?" I whispered.He nodded."Right now?" I asked again.He nodded for the second time.He was so tempting.Even the questions and confusion in my mind almost gave up just so I could agree to his wishes.I pushed his chest lightly and I saw his expression change. Like he’s not expecting for me to do that. I rolled my eyes and shook my head. His loud sighs are all I can hear. I could see her struggling to let go of my shoulder."You didn't answer my question a while ago."He raised an eyebrow. I think he still doesn’t have the focus on what I’m saying. It was as if I was still left behind when I rejected him.He looks like a puppy that needs some treats. I tried to hide my smile."Do you flirt with just anyone here?"I raised my eyebrow to him to leave an impression."What?""Should I just ask the former clerks here before?" I said rudely.He chuckled with amusement."Or maybe not just the clerks?"”Then who? Ceena? ” he laughed.I had some goosebumps when he mentioned his ass
"Good afternoon ma'am."I couldn’t look at a middle aged woman standing in front of Hugh and me. I bowed a little more when I greeted him.After the intercom, I almost shit bricks hearing what Ms. Ceena just said. His mother, Hugh’s mother is in front of me.She’s wearing a luxury looking like outfit. But out of all the pieces she’s wearing, the coat that has a fur on it was the most attention grabbing. Her hair is well fixed, the red lipstick that’s on her lips is flashing and fitted her pale face. Like Hugh, she has this hard complexion.They both look superior and someone who should be respected.“Mother,” said Hugh.I turned around to leave them both there. His mother didn't greet me back because it wasn't her job to greet me. But I could feel him staring at me. It’s like she’s wondering of my presence in there.I saw in my peripheral view that Hugh tried to stop me but he’s too late. I have completely turned my back on them."You didn't tell me you're coming."I heard Hugh before
Hugh: Why are you not answering my calls?Hugh: Ceena told me that you went home early. Are you sick?Hugh: Please call me as soon as you see this message.Hugh: I’m worried.I bit my lower lip as I read his messages. I'm so grateful because it looks like that's all he really knows. I think Ms. Ceena is civil enough to not stick her nose into some matters. She knew what to say and what not to say.It was as if my tears had dried from the amount of tears I had cried before. All I can do now is watch Hugh's name appear on my cellphone over and over again.His mother called me slut. His mother made me feel so humiliated without even having to humiliate me in front of many people. Her words are enough to cut me into pieces. Her words are enough for me to bleed. I chuckled lightly, without any hint of humor. Now I know where Hugh inherited his cold heart.She left me in that office after uttering those words. Didn't even give some chance to speak up and explain my side. I didn't even ex
My lips are quivering while watching Hugh and Celeste walk out in his office. They are both pre- occupied of each other’s presence.Celeste is holding this folder that seems to be their topic. I just made myself busy with the paper’s that in front of me even though it’s not necessary. Just to be able to assume I don’t care about the two of them.Hugh was busy for the next two days. He hardly stayed in his office because he was so busy. He’s always out because of some meetings and all that.Though, it may be easier for me if he did not message me all throughout his business. There are times when he never fails to inform me that he won't be able to go to his office, that we won't be able to see each other. It made my heart ache more.Hugh: Angel, are you home?That was just one of his texts.We didn’t meet because he was somewhere else, still about his big investor.I typed slowly as I put down the pint of ice cream.I have no appetite at all, and my life depends in this pint of ice cr
That day passed by without any interaction with Hugh.I stared at the door of his office for a few minutes because he and Celeste had been there for several hours. It’s like, they’re busy with something I didn’t know and I’m not responsible to know. I was just breathing calmly while my mind was in turmoil.Finally, the big day. This is such a big day for him.His very first text is the one that woke me up from my sleep.Hugh: Wish me luck today.‘I know you’ll do good, Hugh.’ No matter how he hides it I know he’s still nervous about this. I did not reply to him. I want to know what time he got home yesterday? Will they be with Celeste? Did he also deliver it to his condo and cook it? I want to faint at the thought. I’m crazy.I smiled at all the people that’s passing by the counter. The office became busy. There are many unfamiliar people.There were times when Hugh didn't even look at me because he was so busy. I’m fine with it though, I prefer seeing him so busy with his field. It
I don’t know what time they ended. I also don’t know if the proposal was a success or what. I won't be surprised if it fails. The investor is probably disappointed with the failure I did. Moreover, Hugh.I eagerly went home to Fifth Avenue to pack my things as soon as possible. I will never forget his eyes a while ago. It was as if my heart was pounding every time I remembered his eyes I thought were full of disappointment.I'm such a failure.He looked unto me as his luck only to find out that I will be the reason to bring him down. That's why I just want to leave. But I can't act on everything that's going on.At the same time as I was handling my suitcase was the loud thunder. I crouched immediately and cried out of fear. Honestly, a mixture of fear, pain and grief.I was still wearing my uniform and my hair was messy from the loose ponytail. I waited for the heavens to calm down a bit then I continued to drag my only suitcase that I brought in here.I slumped to the floor just ne
(READ AT YOUR OWN RISK)"Angel!"His weary voice was all I could hear. My eyes widened as I lifted my head. I can only see the side off his face that is being lighted by the room outside the closet.My sobbed grew louder as he touched my face so softly. His expression is hard and with gritted teeth, he cursed a lot of words that some of it was not understandable.He immediately hugged me and I hugged him back. He slapped me on his chest and kissed the top of my head. I sobbed more as I heard his heartbeat. His silent heartbeat is enough for me against the loud thunder."Hush now, I'm here." he uttered which made my heart ache more.I gripped his shirt because of mixed emotions. A hint of joy embedded in me as I can’t believe that he’s here. He’s here, he came for me."Come," he simply uttered.And in a snap, he carried me in bridal style. I hugged his neck so I wouldn’t fall, tears haven’t stopped still and I couldn’t open my eyes because I’m afraid to see his face again.He laid me d
(READ AT OUR OWN RISK)He kissed my lips like an animal sniffing its captive.His kiss was both dominating and craving. The lungs that had been forced to be killed ignited. Instead of restraining myself, like a fire, all my worries and thoughts turned into ashes.It made my mind go blank.I felt aroused, It’s like I’m longing for him more. Forgetting what purpose we were doing, I reciprocated her kisses. His stubble is hurting my thin fair skin.It’s like he’s kissing as if there’s no tomorrow. In the anticipation of wanting for more, my hands roamed into the parts of his body. I grabbed his hair and moaned when he bit my lower lip.He then stopped and looked at me. His lips are now red and his eyes are drunk from our kisses. Without any words, while looking at me, his lips traveled down to my jaw down to my neck.“Hugh,” I moaned.He nibbled my neck but instead of feeling the pain I felt the fire grew more. It’s not a bonfire anymore, it’s a huge ball of fire gushing into my system as
