Lianne drank from the wine glass she was holding while watching the man from a distance. Shit! She was itching to get close to the man and slap him hard. "Hey, girl! Why are you drinking?" Her cousin Sheena asked her annoyingly. She shook her head and continued to gaze at the man who was sitting on the other couch with his teammates. They were happily drinking together with the girls except for him, who was alone. The man was drinking alone, laughing, and clutching a bottle of beer. "What's the deal with you and Zyd Caiden McCluskey? You kept gazing at him, and we all know how attractive and hot he is. That's obvious to me. Furthermore, he is the hockey team's captain, but he is dating someone else and their engagement was widely publicized on social media." Duh! I am aware of that. She no longer drinks wine from the glass but from the bottle. Sheena placed her palm on her mouth while staring at her. She wasn't a drinker after all. She tried it before, just three times, and this i
A loud crack woke her up. Sheena cursed because a car blocked their way. It was literally on their way, and it looks like it owns the road. "Why are we having such bad luck today?" Sheena said, frustrated. She stormed out of the car and walked up to the black Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita. She was not stupid to not know that this is one of the most expensive cars in the world. She wants to go home and forget this night. And whoever drives this luxurious car that was on her way will taste her wrath. "Hoy! Ano pag-aari mo itong kalsada, ha? Aba, mahiya ka. May dadaan dito, oh. Sipain ko 'tong sasakyan mong gago ka, eh!" Hey! Are you the owner of this highway? Be ashamed. We are going to drive our way home! I am going to kick your car, asshole! She said this with her hands on both sides of her waist. "Lianne, we are in Pennsylvania, he won't understand you!" Sheena said this nervously, still in the driver's seat. She arched her brow. It's a good thing the driver won't understand what she'
Her cousin Sheena wailed and protested about how her happiness had been snatched away. While she laughed at Sheena, she went back to her bed and laid back down. She's still wearing makeup and has a headache! Wait, where's my phone? Sheena slapped her arms, causing her to return to reality. "We're grounded, girl," she said, rolling her eyes at her. "Have you seen my phone? I can’t find—" but stopped as she realized she had given the man her phone. She jumped out of bed and pulled her hair. Oh my! Lianne, you are such a moron! "What? You forgot it, right? You just handed it over to Captain Zyd last night and walked out like you were in a fashion show." Her cousin teased her. She slapped herself for being so foolish. She won't ever set foot inside a bar again. She was now traumatized. Why? Why did she give it to him? She is not Santa Claus, jeez! While Sheena was on her phone, grinning and shivering. She can't help but look at Sheena's phone just to smooth her unkempt hair. Omg! It'
Finally, she found a new job in a coffee shop. It was fine for her since she works as a cashier there. If she converts it to Philippine pesos, it's still a lot of money. She is not picky about jobs; if she is interested in one, she will pursue it. The Coffee Shop was not as crowded since it had just opened and was not as well known as other coffee shops. And she was with two other Filipinas who work at the coffee shop. She immediately made two new friends. "He's extremely attractive, isn't he?" The two ladies, whose names she knew as Hera and Trixie, were fantasizing while their gazes were drawn to a large flatscreen TV in the corner. She glanced at them right away, just to roll her eyes at the person they were talking about. She simply ignored them and returned her focus to the menu. She has no interest in coffee, therefore she must remember every variety on the menu! It's difficult, though. "I wish I was as fortunate as his girlfriend." Hera said, daydreaming again like a fool.
The man immediately paid for the coffee he had ordered and then turned away from her without saying anything. She left me speechless. Sorry for what? Suddenly, she realized she still hadn't handed him his change. She got up quickly, hurried outside after the man, and gave him the change. When she saw him, he was already on his motorcycle and wearing his helmet. She dashed forward to get closer to the man and called him, "Hey, Sir!" It glanced at her. She was about to say, "You left your change," when suddenly she stumbled over her foot, and the next thing she knew, the pavement floor had caught her. She cried out in pain, "Ouch!" and staggered to her feet. "Min Dam, are you okay?" the man rushed over to her and helped her stand. She still managed to hand him his money. What a pain! Why was she chasing him to begin with? They're not even playing chase. This man can use his card, so why the hell did he use cash instead? Argh. I hate it! It’s so embarrassing. "What makes you hurry?
She tugged Zyd's collar and gave him a silent kiss before he could finish what he was about to say. He was taken aback by what she did. They remained that way for minutes. "Fuck we lost her!" God! She finally let out a breath. She was quietly relieved when those jerks disappeared, but she quickly realized it was Zyd Caiden McCluskey, whom she had just kissed right now. 'Omg! The what I did?' Why did she do it? Why, of all people, did she run into this man again? How can she get out of here? "Nice strategy. You are going with me to the police station." He drove the car quickly. Wait, what? "Hey, hey, I'm not a thief! I was being robbed, and someone was trying to harm me, so I ended up hiding myself inside your car," she explained. This is so annoying. "Who are you fooling with?" he asked, simply staring at her and making it clear he didn't buy what she was saying. "Whether you like it or not, you will go with me." Crap! Does she look like a thief? She could do nothing when the
She was already at her station, and he was standing in front of her, holding the menu and pointing to the particular coffee he wanted that day. "Can I have this coffee?" The man's eyes still didn't leave her alone, and she felt awkward about it. "Which one, sir?" Hera teased. "Do you mean Lianne Coffee Ala Latte?" As soon as the man nodded, Trixie started giggling, which almost knocked her over in excitement. "I mean, espresso," the man said, then paid for what he had ordered and went to his seat. Her two colleagues were trying hard not to scream and poke her, while she just shrugged them off. Then Lianne remembers that this man is a hockey player. "Sir?" She went to his seat and stood in front of him. The man sat near the window, his entire attention focused on the phone. "Yeah?" he asked, looking at her. "You are a hockey player, right?" "Hmm?" "Are you acquainted with Zyd Caiden McCluskey?" For a brief moment, the man, as well as her two colleagues, were taken aback by her
LIANNE was smirking while she's seating and faced the empty Coffee Shop. She didn't seem to have any intention of silencing her brain by thinking to the man that whatever she would do to get rid ofit, but nothing is happening! It was like a broken record that repeatedly reappeared in her mind. If she can just remove her brain and throw it in the ditch, right?What the heck Lianne, you're going crazy. You go to work, okay? You didn't go to Pennsylvania just to flirt, you woman! She scolded herself and almost banged his head on the table. Maybe when he does that, she will wake up from the truth.They had no customers on that day so what they did, they hung out and waited for a customer to arrive. The two of her coworkers were chatting near the glass wall while he was just sitting in her seat. It's been 2 weeks since she last saw the young man but who cares, she doesn't want to see him anymore. Lianne rolled her eyeballs and sighed.Sh*t g
