Laura planned to have a ten to fifteen minutes nap, but ended up falling into a deep slumber. Even when Nanny knocked on the room's door, she played Ignorance. She could barely keep her eyes open. After all, she needed the rest and sleep. It was until she felt she couldn't keep her eyes closed anymore, when she dragged her body off the bed. She ventured her way downstairs where she met with Nanny knitting as usual. while MeIs was busy pacing around the living room with phone glued to her ears. "Who is she busy shouting at?" Laura whispered to Nanny gesturing towards the pissed off Mels. Nanny shrugged in return. She paid no attention to MeIs and her problem. It will only result into headache. Laura plopped her two legs on the center table, folding her arms across her chest as she spared the pacing Mels a glance. It took MeIs more than ten minutes ranting on the phone. Laura wondered whether her cousin doesn't get tired of talking. It was as if MeIs knew what's on Laura’s Mind, she om
A hiss left his lips for the tenth time as he spared his wrist watch a glance. His driver was supposed to pick him up ten minutes ago, yet more than fifteen minutes has passed by without seeing any sign of him. The fact that he has a meeting to attend within the next forty minutes is making it worst for him. He’s someone that do things diligently without a waste of time. He was taught that by his parents. Talking of his parents, his mother had been calling him Several times making sure he had not forgotten anything. He was in that thinking when his phone vibrate from his hand. A smile found its way out of his mouth as he press the phone to his ears before he could speak his mother had began bombarding him with question. “Leo have you arrived? Hope you were able to locate a good place there to lodge? Hope the place is okay for y0u?” she went on with question. “Mom, I’m fine. I’ve not arrived there yet. I’m waiting for my driver to arrive. And don’t worry about the place to lodge. You
They kept on dragging pulling it until all the content spilled all over the place. Leo swallowed a lump in his throat. It was the last piece and she allowed it to went to waste. It's better he should get himself another thing instead of wasting his energy on snack that is no longer in existence. He took a step forward and proceed to walk away only for her to stop him. "Excuse me. Where do you think you're going?" Leo foot came to a complete halt. He thought there's no need for more talk after what happened. What does the girl wants again. He's tying his best not to raise his voice on how the snack spilled on his shirt. As a neat person as he is, even a slight bit of dirt irritates him.He didn't turn around though. "You made the mess so you have to take responsibility for it" She had said. Leo didn't fail to let out a smile at her outburst.When he finally turned around, something flashed in her eyes. "Did I hear you say responsibility?" He asked"Yes you're right. You need to take r
Leo was surprised as much as Laura was. They gave each other a knowing look. Mels nudged Laura on the arm breaking her out of the trance. “You guys know each already” Mels ushered purposely.“You do?” The landlord chirped in. “You know her Mr. Leo?” He questioned again. A smile found its way out of Leo’s lips as he made his way to sit down. The look plastered on her face was quite amusing. I bet she wasn’t expecting to see him anytime soon. Although from his side, he knew they’d definitely meet. For the fact that she was hell bent on him taking responsibility. She has his card after all. Laura gathered herself together and grab her seat which was next to Leo. Mels words began coming back to her. When she said karma is a bitch. Now she believes it is. She won’t say she was expecting to see him again anytime soon. She collected his card only to bluff around. Not because she wants to charge him of anything or such. Leo noticed how Laura was quite. Completely different from how he met
“Thank you so much Mr.Leo for giving us your time today. And for the advice” Mels ushered as Leo prepare to leave for the night.“It was my pleasure Miss Mels”“Do call me Mels”“And do call me Leo. The Mr looks weird to me. I will take my leave then. Do have a nice day” And he turned around and left. Mels nudged Laura on the arm who was consciously quite. “What?” She mouthed.“Follow him” She gestured. Laura passed her a look. “We’ll talk later” She added with a wink. Laura grabbed her bag and slid it around her before making her way out.Leo was already halfway from the store. She heaved out a sharp breath before heading towards him. “Seems you’re in a hurry to get back home” She ushered. Leo was startled by her voice. He didn’t expect her to follow him. But then, that warmed up something in him. He didn’t want to go yet but had to. Maybe they could spend some time before he call it a night.“Do I? Maybe because I have long and strong legs” He answered. Laura steadied her bag and wr
Hazel The loud beats of music was blaring from every direction. Thumping loudly with the beats. Men are drinking, strippers are dancing, others are doing nothing. Just sipping their drinks. The room was filled with people. My eyes scanned the surroundings immediately I set my foot inside. Even before I found my way inside, I felt my blood pumping. If I want I can equally turn back and leave. Yet, something was pulling me back. I needed to enjoy my day. I needed the drink, the dance to cool off my mind from everything. There's no going back. I ventured my way inside, marching towards the counter and grabbed the empty stool. "Welcome Miss. What would you like to have? We have different drinks from-" "I want a strong one" I cut him off before he could complete his statement. "Okay Miss" The bartender ushered back, turning to get me the said drinks. I fished out my phone and began surfing through my social media account. A message popped in. Where the hell are you!! Something was i
Hazel A yawn escaped me as I stretched my body getting off the bed. I immediately trekked to the bathroom to take a shower. Normally, I take my time in showering which is why I stick to waking up as early as possible. I prefer to be at work first before anyone else. Including my boss. "Shit!" Reality slapped me across the face when I remembered I'm no longer working anymore. All the events that transpired replayed in my head. I know I've displayed my job at stake just to expose his dirty little acts. And I don't regret doing that. He deserve more than the humiliation. Since he's not ashamed to be sleeping with women however he like and harassing his employees because he cannot keep his desires at bay. Someone needs to teach him a good lesson. And I'm proud I was able to do that. I discarded the outfit I planned to wear to work and went for a simple denim jeans and a white crop top normal for an ex-worker like me. I tied my hair in a bun and sauntered my way to the kitchen. I live i
HazelA thick silence fell in the room as we sent daggers to each other. I wasn't ready to back off. Damon was the first to avert his eyes. Nevertheless, got me off guard when I felt his hand engulfing my waist. He yanked me forward and my palms immediately landed on his chest. My eyes went wide not at his actions but at the way my chest almost ripped apart due to the heat I felt radiating off my body. Sending me into flames of something I don't want to feel. Something dangerous. He began leaning over at the same time, the beating of my heart went twice their normal form. It was as if I was being controlled. I couldn't make an action. I stood there as the space kept getting smaller. Unknowingly, I clutched his shirt tightly when his eyes fixed on my lips. Something burned me in. I've forgotten when last I go aroused. The last time was at the club three years ago when I kissed a total stranger which I'm not able to remember what happened afterward. I woke up in my bed the next morning
