Lana~“Let’s go out tomorrow?” “Why do you say? Are you free tomorrow noon? What am I even asking? Of course you wouldn’t but what I’m saying is that, you can take a break tomorrow.” Aaron rants on, walking behind me as I put the files into their appropriate places.“Aaron, you only got approval from your doctor to start working. Why not give it a rest?” I pause, raising my eyebrows at him. He sighs, pulling me closer to him by my shoulders.“I really want to go out with you and I know this might look desperate but I think it’s long overdue. We deserve this much, don’t you think?” He asks me, lower lips slightly jutting out in a pout.I chuckled but nodded “Alright, but don’t you think we should wait till weekend? Today is a Wednesday and you haven’t been at work for two days. Perhaps you-" I didn’t get to complete my words as he stops me.“I technically own the company, Lana. I can take a week’s break if I want. Taking a break tomorrow won’t damage the company.” He shoots back. “Com

Lana~“So you’re telling me she did that?” Ellie asks and I hum, taking another slice of ham to eat.“I really don’t understand why Mr Carlsen had to marry her, I mean, she’s always so mean, arrogant and believes she’s better than everyone.” “Maybe because she is, did you see her bag? It can buy me and my family.” Sasha counters as Ellie gasps incredulously. “You’re just too much, how much is a Birkin bag?” Ellie asks, I shrug but Sasha takes out her phone to Google it. “Eighteen thousand!” She gasps, shoving her phone at Ellie who squinted to read the letters. “Bitch, you better be joking. She spends this much on a freaking bag." Ellie grabs the phone, taking a closer look at the amount.“Dude, they’re rich, rich.” She says after some seconds, passing the phone back to Sasha who hums in agreement.“Can she adopt me? I promise I’ll behave.” “Eew, have some dignity, Sasha.” I hit her on the head. Ellie cackles while Sasha grumble about being mistreated."She’s like Ursula from that

Lana~I stare at my reflection, a sigh escaped my lips. I can’t help but think about how the night would end. How everything would go. Would Mr Carlsen like me going out with his son? Will I still have my job?It’s not like I can be fired flimsily. My subconscious tells me but I shove it at the back of my mind. I place my hands over the dress, smoothening the rough edges as I gnawed on my lower lip with worry. My phone dinged, letting me know I have a message. I flinched slightly at the notification, taking the phone off the table to check my message. Aaron texted, letting me know he is now outside my home.I take a step back, looking at myself for the hundredth time through the mirror, I nod in satisfaction, now grabbing my purse and walk out of the room. Soon I was outside the house locking the door properly. Aaron was parked right in front of the house, he stood by the car in a black shirt and black trousers, his hair curled and brushed, allowing some of the curls fall to his f

Lana~“What are you doing here?" Aaron asks, standing up from his chair to face the lady. I look around to see everyone of them with the same facial expression, surprised. A woman stood beside Melanie, talking and elegant, face slim yet stainless, looking like a porcelain doll. She had a black dress that hugs her body like a second skin on, longe blonde hair that accentuated her blue eyes. Full lips moulded in a brown matte lipstick."I- I had to see you, your mom invited me over.” The lady stutters out, tucking her blonde hair behind her ear, she glances at Mr Carlsen, an awkward smile on her lips.“Good evening, Eugene, I hope you’re okay with me being here.” She speaks.“No! No one is okay with you being here, Andrea. What were you even thinking about, inviting her back here!” Aaron snaps. I suddenly became very much aware of the situation at hand.“I did you a favor. Something we should’ve settled right when it began. You and Andrea had the-““Melanie! My relationship is not your

Lana~"So…" Ellie drags out making me roll my eyes.“What?” I deadpan, raising an eyebrow up.“Just ask her, Ellie. She isn’t going to bite you.” Sasha yells from the living room. The microwave dinged, I opened it, taking out the now hot burrito.“Yeah, speak. Ellie and stop being a chicken.” I teased, still wondering what she wants to ask me that’s making her this timid.“Fine! Ineedyoutoteachmehowtoskate.” She rushes out, hands balled into a fist, eyes squeezed close.“What?” I ask, confused. Sasha begins to laugh loudly from the living room. “Skate as in skateboarding?” I ask, trying to clarify things. Ellie sighs, leaning against the kitchen counter, watching as I pull a bottle of coke out from the refrigerator.“Don’t get me coke, the gas makes me feel fuzzy.” I roll my eyes, placing the coke on the island.“It’s not like we’ve been friends for over five years now and stop trying to change the subject. Why do you need to skateboard.” I ask and she groans, dragging her hands over

Lana~“Where are we going to?” I ask, looking outside the windshield, everywhere was dark yet he kept driving. Aaron glances at me, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips."Patience, Lana. Patience.” He whispers. I roll my eyes, willing myself to have the patience he is preaching about, after all we will be there soon, I hope.Minutes later we arrived at his house. Yes, his house. I furrowed my eyebrows as I got out of the car, looking around in confusion.“We are at your home.” I say and he nods, smiling shyly at me. I tilt my head sideways, already thinking thoughts. His eyes widen on seeing my ‘thinking' face according to him.“No, no, no. I didn’t bring you here for that.” He rushes out, I nod, waiting for more explanation. He sigh’s resignedly, holding my hand and leads me towards the elevator.“I just, it’s pretty late to get a proper place and I didn’t want things to stay undone for so long so I decided to do something.” The elevator doors shut close, I watch Aaron fidget s

Lana~I woke up the next day, body sore from all angles. I groaned, stretching my arms over my head, the feeling of someone staring at me washed over me. my eyes fluttering open only to see Aaron’s face inches away from mine, he smiles as our eyes met.“Creep.” Aaron chuckles, leaning even closer to me and kisses me on the cheeks. “Good morning girlfriend.” Memories from last night came rushing back to me. I stare at the man hovering over me, a smile making its way to my lips.“Good morning, boyfriend.” I reply. Aaron leans down, his breathe fanning against my face. I push him back with my hand “Morning breathe.” I tell him but he rolls his eyes.“You’re ridiculous.” He mutters, swatting my hand away before smashing his lips against mine. I struggle for a second before wrapping my arm around his neck, smiling when he begins to pepper kisses all over my face, finally letting me space to breathe.“Come on, we should leave for work now.” I say, sitting up. Aaron grunts, falling on the be
