Jane’s POV “Why is everyone trying to pick me up today?” I murmured while looking outside the window of the taxi.“Yes?” the taxi driver replied, thinking that I was talking to him.I looked at him and smiled faintly. “No. Nothing mister.”He nodded his head and continued driving on the long highway.Just a moment ago, I thought that I survived the dangerous question from Marcus’s mom. But when I found out that it was Eric’s fiancee who was calling, I doubted my luck.‘I am wondering why she suddenly thought of hanging out with me.’ If Eric and Eugene are both in the house, then I won’t have time to meet Haidee. It seems this day was made for us to meet.‘Good thing. I was thinking on how to solve Haidee and Cyrus’s relationship either way. Being Haidee’s friend and Cyrus's friend might help.’ Suddenly I remembered the mess I made two days ago.“Ohhhhh!” I groaned, pulling my own hair.The driver flinched as he looked back at me through the front mirror.Feeling shy, I cleared my t

Jane’s POV The golf course is like an oasis of artificiality in a desert of flat land and unnatural colors. With only trees and buildings obstructing the planar geography, the course is diverse with landscapes; hills, lakes, and pits of someone flowing from one to another. It looks relaxing to see the huge space around me. And I realized why playing golf is expensive. Because it feels like you’re renting a huge place to your little ball play. Wearing a yellow shirt with sleeves, golf skirt and a visor Adidas cap, I looked at the people I am with in this gigantic garden. Kate is with her boyfriend, Peter. They enjoy practicing their shots. On the left side, there are Eric and Haidee wearing their gloves. They don’t talk that much, but they don’t look in a bad mood either. And me? I am standing next to my boss. A.K.A, my fake boyfriend. I looked up at the sky and asked where it went wrong. Because I left Eugene with his friend? Or because I lied to Lance’s mom? Whatever it is,

Third Person’s POV Jane did not know exactly whatever came into her body that she got the courage to hit Cyrus’s head and to call him ‘Evil’ in front of everyone.Things just came out like this and she thinks it is too late to change her mind or to make an excuse, saying that her hand slipped.The wide eyed audience and the victim stared at Jane. Those who did not hear may wonder why Jane did that to him.On the other side, Haidee and Cyrus, who did not know that Jane was standing behind them, were quite shocked too.No one dared to hit Cyrus’s head. Valerie slapped him before, but except his stepmother, Jane is the first one to attack him head on.‘Is she crazy?!’ Lance shouted inwardly. He threw away his golf club and walked closer to her side.Just in case Cyrus would try to hit Jane’s back, Lance would come for the rescue. He’s not alone, because Eric thought the same thing. He was on full alert, waiting to see how Cyrus would react in this situation.“Why… Why did you hit me?” C

The silly Marcus, who wanted to boast about his pet fish, got the fish out of the aquarium and put it inside a plastic cup.Eugene said that he should not do it but Marcus did not listen. Then, after Marcus went out of the room to get something to eat, Kevin noticed that the water on the plastic glass was decreasing. The liquid gushed out on the floor.As the water dries, the fish is slowly dying. Therefore, Eugene went out of the room to report what happened. But when he went out, Marcus’s grandmother looked so shocked upon seeing him.“W-Who are you?” Andrea asked, pointing to Eugene.Eugene looked at Fatima and Marcus. He suddenly felt anxious being questioned about his identity.“Mom,” Fatima called her mother. “He is Eugene. Marcus’ friend.”“Y-Yes, grandma! He is my friend!” Marcus excitedly introduced his friend. But when he took a glance at his mother, he shut his lips. He felt guilty for taking out the fish. “Wait a minute. The fish is dying?!” Marcus exclaimed. “Oh no!” He

Jane’s POVWhen I heard that the wedding will be this year, I knew that there’s nothing to be surprised about.But there was a hollow feeling inside me that was ticking like a bomb.“We are looking forward to your marriage,” Peter said, which broke the silence. “Kate and I wanted to get married too. But her parents haven’t approved of us yet.”Because it seems like me, Lance, Eric and Haidee aren’t ready to answer yet, there was a deadly silence between us.Thankfully, my boss saved the conversation.“Right!” Lance said. “I remembered the time Kate told me that her parents are against your relationship.”Kate and Peter nodded their heads.‘At least the topic changed.’ I grabbed a glass of water and took a sip. When I lifted my head, I met Eric’s gaze.‘Why are you staring like that?’ As if he could read mine, Eric avoided his gaze and drank his coffee.Is he guilty?I told him about Haidee and Cyrus’s love story. Yet, he didn’t change his mind.‘He still wanted to marry Haidee d
