ASTRA"By the way..." I trailed off before taking a quick sip on my milk shake. "My manager came here this morning, while you were asleep." I informed him who was busy chomping on his pancake. His forehead creased a bit before he raised a brow at me."Your ex-boyfriend?"A frowns spread across my face. Then I kicked him slightly under the table and he frowned back, wincing a bit. "What? I thought you dated him?""I did. But stop reminding me!" I replied in irritation."Oh, why? Was he not a good boyfriend?""Stop prying over that matter. Anyway, as I was saying... he was here earlier.""And?" He cocked a brow, looking uninterested as ever. "Any good news about your tarnished career?"I rolled my eyes. "And that, too. Stop reminding me about my career's current state. I'm not even sure how I'm gonna market myself to the public again. Or if I'd ever reclaim my shine back. And mind you, you're not one to talk?!"Sirius laughed out loud and shook his head. "True, true. But you know what,
Loving Jupiter STBS: chap 58
SIRIUSI could not 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 wou

SIRIUSI shut my eyes tightly before throwing my bag, and my body as well, in my apartment's couch as soon as I got back home. There were paparazzi downstairs in the parking once again but fortunately, they didn't approach me this time. They just took pictures from afar - but then, that didn't make it less annoying.I texted Johnny to come and visit me again tonight. It's been a while since I had drink and it's been so long since the last time we've bonded so I thought I'll invite him here for that. He quickly said yes so I already listed the restaurants I would call for delivery later. He, on the other hand, would buy the beers for us.I was busy browsing on the internet, looking for a nice film to watch, when Astra's contact name pop up on the notification.Astra:I'm going home! Mom will spend the night here in the hospital instead."Oh..." And then a follow up text came up.Astra:What you doing tonight? Got any plans?I typed in a reply quickly.Me:Drinking with Johnny. You can

SIRIUS"What, really?! What does it say?" She looked equally excited and thrilled as I am. Now she scooted closer to me and practically glued her face on my phone. I chuckled and put my phone further as I want to read it first before sharing whatever news my investigator have for me with her."Geez, move away! Let me see it first," I rolled my eyes, chuckling. Her eyes rolled back before she leaned away slightly to give me very tiny privacy. Tiny! Her eyes were still glued on my mobile device."Nosy ass," I muttered, purposely letting her hear it. I received a light smack on the arm which I ignored as I proceeded to open the message that Harrison, my private investigator, have sent me. Harrison Dorn:Good noon. I apologize for taking so long to deliver a useful result to you. But I'm glad to tell you that I've finally manage to see through a tiny hole in the case and had the few names involved in it investigated and interviewed. When will you be free to discuss it in person?I felt t

ASTRAI didn't expect I'd click easily with Johnny. We were civil to one another in past encounters during grand carpet events. Although, he wasn't exactly warm and friendly to me, he was cold and only say calculated words beside Sirius. But now, I couldn't believe we were practically squealing at each other's faces and talking shit about the artist he's managing. I could Sirius' hard glare from across us. Looks like he isn't enjoying this mini night gathering he's hosting.I cast him a glance and winked playfully, to which he just responded with a roll of eyes before focusing his eyes on the television. We have finished a bottle of wine and Johnny called for beers this time. When the door chimed, he quickly answered which left me and Sirius in the living room alone.I smiled at him while wiggling my brows teasingly. "Johnny is my best friend now."He sneered and took a swig on his wine glass. "I can see that. Good for you. Remember when you took the Vogue cover magazine from me?""W

ASTRAI shot him an incredulous look as I shook my head briefly while chuckling lightly. Johnny laughed out loud while Sirius remained silent beside me, though I know he's holding back his laughter 'cause he clearly knows the answer.I cleared my throat and shifted on my seat. "What's the punishment if I do not want to answer a question or follow the dare?""Hmm..." Johnny's eyes traveled to the cans of beer beside him. And then he shook his head. "Nah, this is too light for a punishment. You got any brandy in your fridge, Sirius?"I gulped silently 'cause I know I'd be sprawled on this floor before I could even reach five shots of that hard liqour. Sirius got up to check in the kitchen and came back immediately with two flask of brandy. "This is all I've got left. One gulp for every pass."My lips pursed tightly. I enjoy alcohol driking sometimes but there are types of alcohol I just really dislike. Mostly men's drink."So?" Johnny grinned at me. "I don't think you've answered my qu

ASTRAWe had a long fun night playing truth or dare together. By three in the morning, we were done with the whole box of beer and my head and vision were already spinning. I abandoned the floor and laid my drunkenness on the couch, leaving the other two sprawled on the coldness of the tiles. Sirius and Johnny were just as drunk as I am. The first had his head leaning sleepily on the sofa while the latter was just sprawled all over the floor, snoring lightly.I chuckled, my vision spinning harder and my head feeling heavier than ever. I felt Sirius moved his head against my leg and I looked down on him and found his sleepy eyes watching me. There's a tiny smile dancing on his lips.I smiled back and playfully swung my leg to kick him jokingly. "What's up?" I said sluggishly."You're drunk," he observed and I chuckled once again."And so are you.""You can take my bed. I'll sleep here on the couch," he offered but I just shook my head. "I'll sleep where my pajama party playmates are s
Loving Jupiter STBS: chap 64
SIRIUSI fell asleep on the living room floor with my head rested on the couch. My head felt dizzy as hell from all the liquor I've consumed tonight. Johnny and Astra was dead drunk as well, and honestly, I truly enjoyed the dare game with them. Though, I wasn't sure if I'd still remember everything, and all the juicy informations we've shared to one another, tomorrow morning when I wake up. I woke up a few hours later. My head already clears up but my body was yearning for the comfort of my mattress. I groaned in discomfort before forcing my drunken body up. I remember falling asleep with Astra sprawled on my couch but now it is empty. Though, Johnny remained dead asleep on the tiled floor, snoring lightly.I dragged my feet to my bedroom and there I found the drunkard lady laying comfortably under the blanket of my mattress. I shrugged and approached the bed before carefully squeezing myself beside her. She was tightly clutching on the blanket after putting my air-conditioner in f
