ASTRAI hit him on the arm and rolled my eyes, slightly laughing now after reminiscing that day. "Of course, I remember. How could I forgot?" I said, shaking my head smilingly. I then turned to the old man before putting the design book back on the table. "I'd like a butterfly here on my arm!"Sirius chuckled but I ignored him as I sat on the customer chair facing the tattoo artist. I was in awe while watching the process of it. The old man have a gifted hand. He's very good and a pro, very expert in detailing. After nearly fifteen minutes, it was finished! "Wow! This is pretty, Sir. You have an amazing talent!" I complimented, eyeing the finished henna tattoo on my arm. "A poop would look better on your skin."I looked up at Sirius and glared at him. I also attempted to kick him on the leg but he quickly dodged it."Kidding! I'd like one too, Sir.""Really?!"He eyed me sternly, both hands now on his hips. "Yes, so leave the chair, please. It's my turn."I quickly got up and let

SIRIUS (flashback part 2)Astra Fontanilla is such a funny mystery to me. She have one of the richest surname in the country beside her name and yet she’s a loner at school, being bullied by everyone. Well, technically, they’re not bullying her physically. But then, the subtle judgement from the school mates’ stares would be enough to kill off someone’s self esteem and affect them mentally and emotionally.Ah, well… she’s just like me. But the difference is, she’s pathetic at it. While I, on the other hand, was okay being alone. I love being on my own and not being bothered by these low class idiots.But that was I initially thought before I even had my first interaction with her. Surprisingly, she’s a lioness! Was my observation incorrect all this time? Her words are harsh and her yes could kill. Definitely not someone you would easily get along well with.“Wow. And here I was pitying you for being bullied and a loner in this school. Turns out you’re just a plain bitch who deserved i

SIRIUS I smirked, shaking my head while reminiscing those times. I can’t lie, those were the happiest and most fun memories of my life. Astra, somehow, was the constant source of joy in my life during high school. When college came, we rarely see each other anymore. I was graduating college and she was just a freshman. And during those times, she was already receiving so many offers to be a model so she’s even more busy to even throw a single glance at me. I glanced at Astra beside me. We’re at the dive bar of the resort and drinking for a bit. But it seems to me that she’s not very good in handling her alcohol. My forehead creased watching her eyes blinking slowly. “Dumb bitch. Go home,” I whispered to her after taking a sip on my canned beer. Why did she even have to tag along with me?! I’m here to find myself a guy right now! She shouldn’t be getting in my way! Now I’m sure everyone here thinks she’s my girlfriend! Ugh! I snatched the beer in her hand and grabbed her on the arm

ASTRAI pulled my luggage out of the room and left it in the living room before walking my way towards Sirius' bedroom door. I knocked twice before pushing it open to check if he's ready to leave."All done?" I asked, watching him comb his wet hair as he stood at the side of his bed wearing a black jeans and yellow flannels with a white shirt underneath it.I, on the other hand, was wearing a white basic crop top and denim jeans. I wore a cream colored three inches sandals to partner it. My hair was also in a messy bun. He nodded before stashing his comb quickly inside his bag. I turned my back and walked back to the living room. The bellboys are already outside to escort out of the resort."Aww. I'm gonna miss this place! By the way I haven't seen the photos you took of me here.""I'll show you in the plane later. Come on, the staffs are waiting."We pulled our luggage together outside and was greeted by warm farewells from the staff. They already called a taxi for us that'll take u

ASTRAI was deeply anxious in my window seat the whole duration of the flight. It's about four hours long and I couldn't catch even a twenty minute sleep. Even if I want to, I just couldn't. I just closed my eyes and pretended to be sleeping beside Sirius so he wouldn't worry tpo much about me.Thankfully, he found an early available first class flight back home. He even joked that he'll rent us a jet if he wouldn't find any. Though, I know it's half meant somehow but I wouldn't want to trouble him more. Where the fuck would he even find a jet to rent here in Athens? He doesn't know anybody in this land!Few hours later, the plane finally landed safely. My anxiety tripled up the moment I stepped out of the plane. For my father's health, the airport paparazzi, the fans, my free falling career, everything! It's hurting my head!"Hey," Sirius called behind me. I then felt him wrap an arm over my shoulder. "You okay? I know you didn't sleep in our flight."My brow arched at him. "That mea

SIRIUS Athens. We decided it’s better to explore Greece further before hopping to the next country that we haven’t decided on just yet. I plopped down tiredly on the soft mattress of the hotel room as soon as we got in. We haven’t made any itinerary for Athens just yet. I guess we’ll just go wherever our feet and money brings us tomorrow. I called for a dinner before rummaging on my bag, beginning to feel sticky all over my body. I told Astra to answer the door once the dinner arrive but she seemed too engross on her phone. I’m not sure what she’s doing in there but I hope it’s not internet related thing or I’ll be forced to snatch that from her. I stepped inside the bathroom with my towel and toiletries. I washed my face and shaved my growing stubble. I was just about to remove my shorts when I heard the doorbell resounded. And then again… and again. What the fuck is Astra doing? Can’t she hear the doorbell? I sighed in annoyance before leaving the bathroom to check on the door

ASTRA “Go home,” I whispered at Sirius munching on a chicken drumstick beside me while holding a big bucket on his lap. We were at the couch side by side inside the hospital room. It’s already ten in the evening but he’s still here and really acting like the hospital is a freaking playground! He would leave the room occasionally but would come back twenty minutes later with bags of food! As a result, the single couch beside us was already full since they wouldn’t fit anymore on the bedside table! “Well aren’t you so rude, Astra? Can’t you see that I’m eating here?” I glared at him and slightly nudged him, but he only winced shortly and went back to munching again. “And how else do you think I would go home? I didn’t bring my car. Don’t tell me you’d suggest I take a private transpo?” “Why don’t you call your manager?” “Oh!” He dropped the chicken back to its bucket. “I haven’t told him I’m back yet.” “But I’m sure he already have an idea. Many passengers saw us in the airport
Loving Jupiter STBS: chap 50
SIRIUSI couldn't believe how my sparkle filled life suddenly turn into this one day - acting like a damn dog trailing behind Astra twenty-four seven and sleeping in a freaking bedmat on the hospital marble floor.And yet, somehow, I couldn't find anything wrong with that. It's like I'd rather live this life instead of going back to that old past lifestyle where I'm exhaustedly working in front the camera. I wonder how things would turn out after this, once her father wake up from his near death experience. Do we go back to Greece? Or she would head back to work, slowly pick up the remaining glimmer in her career and patch it up, while I'd be left with my own company as I still have yet to figure out how to clean my name from the media.I sighed and shook my head, trying to erase those thoughts away, although I couldn't help but be bothered from time to time.I was slumped down on my couch, waiting and letting the hours pass by slowly. I went home to my apartment after lunch and woul
