[Charmane POV]"Miss Cordova."I was surprised when someone called me. Suddenly my sleepy spirit woke up. I turned around and answered alertly."Y-yes, sir?""Have you finished the papers I need today for the meeting?" he asked in a serious voice.“Yes, sir. It's done.” I stood up and was about to give it to him. But he suddenly turned away. "Sir, wait… Here are those documents—"“Bring that to my office now. And please with a cup of coffee.” I was handed it to him, but he did not even take it.Ugh! He’s really annoying! About the kiss yesterday, I swear it will not happen again. It has no malice. Act normal, Charmane, I still whispered to myself while brewing a coffee.I calmed myself for a while before entering his office. "Here's your coffee and the documents that you needed, Sir." When I put down the coffee and th

[Charmane POV]“H-hi. Good evening, ”I greeted them while my eyes were set only on my boss. But I immediately withdrew because I was really confused. I feel like ice cream that melts the way he stared."Oh, hi, lady, good evening," his companion greeted.“Ahm, by the way, this is Charmane. Charm, this is Greg Ferrer, the owner of this house.”Oh, he is Greg? The luck of the girlfriend to this person."Nice meeting you, Charmane." Mr. Ferrer extended his hand and I accepted it even though it was awkward.“Same here, Mr. Ferrer. ”“It would be nice if you just call me. Well, you’re really beautiful and you’re perfect for each— ” He couldn’t say what to say next because the person next to him kicked him gently.I felt awkward. I feel like both my cheeks are red. What could that Albert have said here to this Greg?

      “Look, I don't care if she's your girlfriend or not! Because in the first place, I know where's my place is.”"She's not my girl," Brad repeated.I turned to him and then smiled wryly. I looked at his eyes down to his soft lips. I raised my fingers to touch it. I didn’t know where did I get my strength to do that. It was just as if my hand just had the brain to do that."Why so defensive, huh?" I looked at his eyes again while my fingers were still touching his lower lip. "There is no us, right?"He swallowed while staring into my eyes. With the scent of his breath, it was as if I was really losing myself and my knees were weakening as well. Is this what they are saying that when you get drunk you dare to do what you can't do when you are sane?

  It was Monday morning and time to face my boss. I knew I was guilty. I had to face him even though I didn’t know how to act in front of him now.I cleaned his office even though it was clean. I wiped his desk and arranged the paperwork. I also rearranged his bookshelf.After I fixed his office I went out. It was time to clean my table too. After I cleaned up I went to the coffee maker and made my own coffee. I would have done Brad too but I changed my mind because he might be late today.I sat at my table then I turned on my computer. I scanned his schedules and meetings for that day so that if he asked me later I would have an answer right away. Then I proceeded to my unfinished works last Friday because he sent me home early that day.Actually, the deadline for the others he asked to do was still long, but I had to work on it in advance so that my wor

   It's eleven-thirty at night but I still can't sleep and I'm just tossing and turning in bed. I have different thoughts about my situation between Brad and Andrei. Both of them were occupying my thoughts.It seems unbelievable that Brad and I need to pretend in front of others, especially in his family. It wasn't because Trixia was messing with him, he wants me to pretend his girlfriend. Do I care about the problem he is facing? And about Andrei, it's confusing because he was back again and just a few hours ago he was expressing interest, but I just didn't pay attention. I didn’t want him to feel hopeful yet.I didn’t know why it was all happening. Those two people who both had something to do with my past are coming back now.I wish I could have told Brad what he insists happened four years ago. But I didn’t know how and where to star
