Davina pov

“You were not home around past nine yesterday,” My dad broke the silence in the dining and my mother and I paused. “What was the reason?”

“Uhhh,” I tore my gaze off him and transferred it to my mom, but her facial expression was also screaming ‘confusion' just like mine, so I had to turn back to my dad.

“I told Mom yesterday; I thought she would have explained to you.”

He just shook his head. “Too bad she did not explain to me, so I guess you would have to do that yourself.” He took a glass of water and tapped his chest slightly.

“Do you have pain there?” I was pretentious but he was quick to notice.

“I'm not the type of person who faces two things at a time, so just give me an explanation to the question I asked you earlier: why were you late?”

“You don't think it's something bad, right?” I demanded from my dad who just looked me in the eye, nonchalantly.

After a long moment of silence, he did not say a word, neither did he flinch, and that was when I knew what he w

    Davina povImmediately Jane asked that question, I froze, with my hands mid-air but she just arched an eyebrow. “It’s just a question though,” she stated with a nonchalant shrug. “And just like as we both know, not all questions deserve to be answered.”But even after she continued what she was doing, I could not take my eyes off her. “You are joking right?” I asked with a hint of sarcasm in my voice. “Like you don't mean it right?”Jane turned to me with a smirk, her eyes narrowing as they locked onto mine. “It’s just a question,” she said casually, “but I swear there’s a spark between you two.”I scoffed, rolling my eyes. “God, you've been here for like two days and you’re already playing matchmaker? Seriously?”She shrugged, unbothered. “I asked if you wanted to call him, and you said yes without even blinking.” She paused, clearly watching my reaction like a hawk. “Tell me that is not suspicious.”“I don't remember me saying anything like I want to call him,” I objected with my

    Sebastian pov“Why are you not waiting till Saturday?” The soft clattering sound the plate made could be heard along with Lily's voice and Sebastian raised his head to look at her. “What's that?” He asked as he looked around before his eyes finally dropped on Lily who smiled. “You usually announce a family dinner after every deal is signed, and we do that on Saturdays,” her voice was soothing, and she smiled again after looking at him. “But we are having one today, on a Tuesday.”“Oh, about that,” he muttered under his breath and shook his head. “Nah, this is not a celebration for signing one or something, it's just me having this feeling that we are close to something good.”There was silence after he spoke and the sign Lily showed revealed that she understood, but she seemed disappointed in a way or two. “Although I'm close to that, it'll only take a while but two weeks at max,” he added with a knowing smile, and Courtney held his hand.“It's only a matter of time.” She turned to

    Davina pov“Jane,” I called out to her with my hands still on the doorknob and she slowly raised her head. The lights were turned off and even the AC. I flipped the switch for the lights, and I saw her face clearly, but the only thing that made me worried was the look in her eyes. Her eyes were red-rimmed.“Did you cry?" I shut the door behind me and made my way to where she sat. “And why would you do that?" “Honestly, I feel like I'm a coward for what I did.” She fought back the tears that were threatening to come out of her eyes, her voice exposed her. “What did you do?" I asked with concern etched on my face and evident in my voice. “It's not like you committed a crime or something.”“What's with the sudden change?” I became confused just like her immediately she asked the question. She looked confused all the while though.“Sudden change?” I inquired as I loosed the hairband that held my hair behind. “If at all I've changed, I don't think it's sudden.“It's been four years si

    Davina pov.“What did you tell him?" I came to a halt when I reached Alex, who was about to leave my office, and I rubbed my temples. “What did I tell you about taking him out of my office if you guys want to have your conversation?" His mouth parted, indicating that he was about to answer the first question I asked before I threw the second one at him.“About ten minutes ago, you acted like you were not concerned with anything that had to do with him," Alex leaned on the wall and folded his arms above his chest. “And now you're looking curious, care to tell me what happened?" “As you can see, I have a lot of work to do," I transferred my gaze from him to the heap of files that were in my hand. “So I don't have time for questions." “Then shouldn't you be doing that?" His brows furrowed, and his eyes were still on the files in my hand. “Trust me, you should be doing nothing else but that.”He was at it again, speaking to me with emotion in his voice, like he cared, only for him to a

    Davina pov “You are what?!” I had no idea my eyes were shut and I questioned her again like I did not hear it the first time she said it. It was at that moment it dawned on me that, truly, the highest she did with men was commend them; she never talked about her love life with me. Was this the reason? Was she scared to tell me?“I'm sexually attached to women,” she spoke louder this time and I saw tears pricked at the corner of her eyes. “So you mean you're part of the LGBTQ+ community?” I asked with a hint of sarcasm in my tone. “Wow, just wow.” “Yeah, I expected this.” Her voice was barely above a whisper but firm and I watched as her face fell. “I knew you wouldn't be fine with it; that's why I tried to hide it for as long as possible.”If only, she knew I was not annoyed with her for being some sort of lesbian since I understood the LGBTQ+ spectrum. “What do you mean by that?” I played dumb but she was quick to notice. She just shook her head and tears rolled down her cheek.

    Davina pov.Sebastian's gaze moved from me to Alex who was already seated on the edge of the table with his hands crossed above his chest and his face directed towards the ground. “I’m here to meet–”“I never asked you anything,” I cut him short and I clicked my tongue before turning back to Alex. “Hey,” I called to him, and he raised his head with a furrowed eyebrow, but I overlooked it. “I’m heading towards Mr. Hernandez’s office so when I'm out, lock the door and take this visitor somewhere else other than my office,” I added with a scowl before walking out of the office without sparing Sebastian a glance. As I walked away from the office, I felt Sebastian's eyes bore into me. I was not the type to think about what was not, so I turned back only to see that I was correct, and that irritated me the more, making me walk out of the building. “Alexander Campbells, Sebastian Campbell.” I exhaled towards the sky and I used my hand to shield my eyes from the sun. “Bunch of bastards.”

    Davina pov.“You really wanted to pick up that call?” I retorted with a frown on my face as I watched Alex rub his temples with a look of disappointment that animated his face. “I did not tell you yesterday,” he replied softly as a heavy exhale escaped his nostrils. “I wanted to tell you about it, but you were nowhere to be found, and your number was not reachable.” “You wanted to tell me what?” I questioned with a furrowed eyebrow and rose to my feet, I could no longer hide the anger that was boiling in me. “Do you even think of telling me things before you do them?” Without giving him room to answer the first question, I threw another one at him and watched as he pushed his hair backward with his hand. “You don't understand, trust me,” he pressed his lips and our eyes locked. “After what happened yesterday at the rooftop, I knew–” He groaned as he picked up the phone from his pocket, and he swiped it to the right, and it connected. “Please give me a minute, I'll get back to yo

    Davina povI walked down the hallway, and, just like every other day, heads bowed, and as I always do, I waved to them with a smile on my face, but today was different. “Good morning ma, I–" “I can't attend to anything now, please," I raised my hand, and the receptionist trailed off. “About thirty to forty minutes from now, you can come back please." “Sure, I'll do that, ma." She replied as she pushed her eyeglass above her nosebridge. “Thank you." I continued walking to my office without waiting to hear any other thing she had to say. It's not like she has something to say anyway. What happened between Sebastian, Courtney, Natalie, and me yesterday was something that I never wanted. The fact that she could still call me a whore, the fact that she still had no respect for me. It felt like what I did to her yesterday was not enough, like there was something I needed to do to her to make her shiver when she sees me. But that was the least of my worries.
