Tiffany"What's going on over here?" Sebastian appears back at the table, looking at Gary and me, and takes his seat. "I was telling her about your iconic wedding announcement", Gary says with a big smile of pride. Sebastian's eyes widen into utter disbelief. "Gary, you just did not—""I did", Gary smirks.Sebastian lets out a deep sigh of annoyance, glancing shortly at me. I keep grinning at the situation, knowing slightly about the context. "You, fucker", he grunts at Gary. "You shouldn't be swearing in front of a lady. Well, that's pretty obvious since you didn't date properly for years. Learn the manners back", Gary tells him."Fuck off, Gary. You already made a good joke out of me over here", he shrugs."Well, I enjoyed the story, though. It was funny", I chuckle at him. Sebastian frowns. "Oh, you find me funny?"I roll my eyes. "A bit actually"He grimaces. "Enjoy!" Gary winks before walking away. Sebastian has put a dirty face on."What?" I ask while smiling. "It wasn't
Tiffany Sebastian drops me at the parking lot near the grocery store, just near the car."Okay, then–" my lips widen into a goodbye smile as I unfasten the seat belt while looking at him. "I'm really sorry again", his voice is filled with so much disappointment as he looks at me with those puppy eyes. I'm really– already– whipped for this man in just a week. I don't know what's going to happen to me when I'll know more about him and deeply know him. "I told you not to be sorry. We literally spent the whole morning together", I tell him. He nods and just peers into my eyes. His reaction is frozen. I can't figure out the way he's just staring at me now. It's more like he's disappointed or guilty about something. Why is he like that?I can't help hovering from my seat and leaning closer to his face, capturing his lips into a comforting kiss. He immediately wraps his right arm around my waist and pulls me into a passionate one. I started this and he seems to finish it wilder than ev
Tiffany I jump off the bed and make sure the date I'm seeing is right. Yes, it's right. It clearly says the date is tomorrow. However, I can't be so excited about a birthday from a social media account. Sometimes people put random dates. To make sure, I immediately goo gle search for it. However, there's nothing about his birthday. He never talked about it. And honestly, Sebastian has never fought any case for a celebrity that people will be eager to write his biography in articles. I shrug, then go back to his profile straight. After scrolling through his timeline a bit, I reach the point where people were wishing him last year.And yes!The date is correct which means it's his birthday tomorrow.Heck!Why didn't he tell me? Well, who says that MY BIRTHDAY IS TOMORROW?Especially when he believes that I did much research on him. He may think I knew about his birthday. That's worse.Why– Just why did his birthday have to come just a week after we met and I barely know his likes an
Tiffany "Okay, ma'am", I can urgently customize a card for you but it may charge more. Like 20 bucks", the woman in the gift store says. I have already got red roses worth 25 bucks and it seems to be pretty good. I already covered the price.I don't know if buying red roses for a guy is a good idea. I never saw any girl doing that. Maybe, rarely. Also, maybe he has gotten roses from women before. He's been into dating people for more than a decade and it's the first time for me. For me, it's the first time I'm buying roses for anyone. For a man. And it's really a big thing for me. A way to tell him that he's the only person who ever existed on this earth who made me feel different about myself and made me believe that I am worthy of much more than I think I do. I deserve to be appreciated by others. It's not always the self-love we need. "Ma'am", the woman calls me, dragging me out of my thoughts. "Are you okay with this?""Yes, please", I say excitedly as the woman gives me a thi
Three minutes ago.Tiffany I come out of the Uber and take a deep breath while holding the bouquet with the card with my note written on it. The woman has really done a fine job to decorate it beautifully. I'm excited, also nervous at the same time, still wondering if he would like me to show up without letting him know. What if it feels like crossing a boundary to him? However, as far as I have known Sebastian he's the sweetest. At least, to me. I have seen him putting on a poker and cold face in public, especially when we're not together. Alone. I carry the bouquet and walk towards his small house, my heart beating faster. As I reach the door, I find it open. That's strange. But also good that I can just go inside and surprise him. I peek inside. From the door, I can only see the narrow corridor which leads to the living room. I step inside, holding all my excitement inside, and keep walking. It's really silly of me that I figured out he was in the living room by his cologne. Th
TiffanyEnough of this shit! I curse under my breath while trying to collect the broken pieces of my heart because no one actually isn't accountable to do that. It was my fault. The whole time. To expect something more than a casual hook up which he failed to explain to me or maybe he had thought I would not like that idea and decided not to openly discuss that. How can I even think that suddenly a guy would be so serious about me out of the blue? A guy I didn't know eight days ago. I should stop being invested in all these anymore. "Okay. So, what will you have for dinner?" I ask Ryan and Kevin with a big smile. When the smile is fake and the pain is enormous, maybe people strive to smile more than usual.That's what happens to me and I realise that by the way both of them look at me, confused."Tiff, you should take a rest. Tamara will make dinner for us today", Kevin says."But I have to assist her. Don't I? She's wild with spices and you two don't love it at all", I chuckle and
Tiffany He's just in front of my eyes, looking straight at me with that gaze that makes my heart twist. I take a step back as he lowers his eyes and presses his lips together as if he's unable to look into my eyes. All of a sudden, those flashes hit me again. I clench my fist, gazing at him with all the agony I was holding inside. Then I start walking towards the gate as fast as possible. Why is he here? Why now? Where was he when I was hurting like hell the entire day?Yes, he was obviously drinking and fucking around with Thea. "Tiffany!" I hear his voice chasing me and force my legs to walk faster toward the car."Tiffany, please stop!" he pleads and the next moment he reaches me, clasping my arm. I feel a shiver down my spine as he pulls me closer to him, turning me around but I jerk his hand off. He hesitantly looks away as if regretting touching me like that. I gaze straight at him as our eyes meet. The way he just stares at me like that, as if he's guilty and hurt too,
Thea "Are you serious? I have been waiting for an hour in your fucking office. And you just disappeared without letting your staff know. I'm not so available to wait for an fucking hour", I lash out at Sebastian when he walks into the cabin and straight comes to his desk, roughly shoving some stuff aside.He doesn't utter a word and acts like I don't even exist. "I'm talking to you", I grunt.He finally looks at me with a cold glare, making me mum on the spot. "Oh, you have some important work to do apart from just fucking around, Mrs Fox? Then why don't you just do that instead of working a bit for your own mess", he shrugs. "Ugh! You're in a mood today. Why are you lashing out at me?" I scoff, watching him frustratedly slumping on the chair. He looks freaked out. "What's wrong? You got something about this case? Are Christian or his lawyer up to something on the next hearing?" I ask nervously since I have no clue what they are up to. We haven't come face to face ever since. "
