Loving Jupiter STBS: chap 75
ASTRAA few moments after Sirius and Johnny arrived, Matteo decided to finally leave. I walked him to the door, the fake apologetic smile remained plastered on my face, as if I was really sorry about those two suddenly showing up here and interrupting us."I'm sorry. Maybe we can hangout next time," I said fakely. "About the contract... give me a few more weeks to decide about it. I'm not really sure if I want to continue working for the agency or if I'm just exhausted and I'm not really in a good state to continue working in general."Matt sighed and nodded. "I understand. But please, visit the management sometimes so you can personally discuss this with them. Maybe having you in there in person, we can come up with some good compromising arrangements with you."This time, a genuine smile appeared on my face. "Thank you, Matt. And I will, just give me some time."He nodded one last time before finally turning to leave. I exhaled deeply before walking back inside. Johnny was laughing

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

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 kn

SIRIUSAstra 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 it!” I retorted after she just

ASTRA When I was a kid, back when I wasn’t even in high school just yet, the bookstore is my favorite hangout place for so many reasons. I love reading! I love discovering new ideas! It is also my mother’s work place after she quit designing for a high end brand. But most importantly, there’s this particular type of reading material I always love to check out during my free time. A visual book. A magazine. In those pages, there are beautiful tall women wearing elegant clothes. They look mysterious and intimidating. My mother calls them a model. She then mentioned that she use to work with those kind of women before. Ever since I learned about models, I dreamed of becoming one as well. I learned to dressed up properly though my closet used to consist of average looking clothes. I’ve learned to fix my posture, and copied how models walk on the videos I used to search on the internet. It was a ridiculous dream I thought I wouldn’t be able to achieve. I thought it’ll always stay as a

ASTRAPulling my luggage out of the room, I 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 us

ASTRAI plopped down on the hotel mattress as soon as we got inside the room. It's a double bed room and way more spacious than the ones we got in Paris. There's even a tiny kitchen on the right side of the room and a wide veranda on the left, overlooking the fun city of Camden and the markets lined up in the streets.A smile made its way to my lips. "Already liking it more than Paris. I'd love to walk downstairs tonight.""Uh-huh. It's one-thirty. Aren't you hungry? We haven't eaten lunch yet.""So call for room service."Sirius walked towards me, holding onto the sides of his waist with a stern expression. "They don't offer that here. It's self service Miss Ma'am. They have a cafeteria downstairs.""Oh! That sucks," I frowned. "Well then, I'll just change and maybe freshen up a bit then we'll head down for lunch.""Okay. Just meet me downstairs."I nodded shortly before hurrying to open my luggage and stepping inside the bathroom. The main door closed loudly and I began stripping o

ASTRA I tied my hair in a high ponytail and grabbed my wallet before finally stepping out of the hotel room. I feel kinda nervous as I began gathering witty remarks in my head in case Sirius brings up the mess I just did some moments ago. I got in the ground floor in a few seconds and asked a patrolling guard for the direction to the cafeteria. He politely pointed the left hallway to me and I muttered a curt thanks to him before heading towards that direction. Immediately, I spotted Sirius from the glass wall of the cafeteria, seated just near the entrance. He found my eyes as well and he frowned deeply as his head tilted, as if telling me to walk faster and sit already ‘cause he’s already famish from the merely hour long flight. “Oh! Pepper steak-” “Ah-uh!” He stopped me and pushed the chicken meal towards me as soon as I settled in on the chair in front of him. I frowned in annoyance. “Why would you buy me this? This chicken looks so dry! You could’ve gotten the steak for both
