Beth forced Logan back into their room. It isn't too late now, but they desperately needed a break. They've been walking all day, climbing a little mountain...and the wife already misses the soft mattress and soft pillow to sleep on.
Logan and Beth walked to their room. After closing the door, Logan grabbed Beth's hand. Beth raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Logan picked up Beth and carried her to the bathroom.
"What do you want? I took a bath this afternoon... in that bath...?! we are tired...you are tired. Let's just sleep!” Beth asked, worried because there is a glint of lust in Logan's eyes which now turned 180 degrees when he is in the room they rented.
"Don't worry. You will be more beautiful, if you bathe often. Now all we have to think about is bathing you!”
"I can take a bath myself, over there!"
"But we haven't showered together in a long time! You said it yourself…I'm tired…this is my most effective stress
Elizabeth was annoyed that the computer at the outlet where she worked had been broken since this afternoon. She felt like she really wanted to chase away the customers who came because she was forced to make a replacement bill manually--aka handwritten, in duplicate--and that meant, she had to waste time on unnecessary things. So far, Beth has always been labeled as a troublemaker at her place of work, as if all problems will come when Beth's shift starts.Beth has contacted operational management at the help center to ask for help so that one of the technical support staff comes to solve the computer problem at her outlet. But... because there are only a handful of staff working this New Year's Eve--plus the distance from the head office to the outlet where she works--no one is willing to be kind enough to come to help.It seemed that Beth wanted to broke down the technical support management office.Then while she was serving a confused customer, Mrs. Rene, t
Today Beth started teaching private, her subject is Math, she teaches a nine-year-old girl. She was assigned to teach once a week, every afternoon after work--if she worked the morning shift. She is in dire need of money.The girl's name is Raineriska, her nickname is Raine. She has a small face, long straight shoulder-length hair, with a sharp nose, chubby cheeks, and big black eyes. She really likes wearing headbands, which makes her look even cuter. At home, Raine is alone with her elderly caregiver, Mam Runs, while her father works.According to Mam Runs, Raine only has a father, because her parents divorced immediately after Raine was born into the world. Even so, Raine is not a spoiled girl. She is very independent and loves to cook."Why do you study Math privately? Why don't you study in the tutoring place?" asked Beth while Raine was working on the problem she had given her, at their second meeting a week later."I wanted to study in a tutoring p
The long-awaited day has arrived. This afternoon, she planned to go with Raine to the little girl's mother. But, it turns out, Logan has been home all day because of diarrhea. 'Double shoot!''Get lost, Burger!' Beth thought holding back a laugh."Raine, you have the heart to leave Father like this?" asked Logan with a pale face. She doesn't know if the man is really sick or not, his face is really pale... but how come that annoying creature, like him, can get sick?'He is old in age, but actually spoiled! So this is how this sadistic man behaves when dealing with his daughter? Wow, she could die Logan find out where they are going this afternoon!' thought Beth, she began to reconsider.Raine glanced at Beth. "Beth ... I think we are not going today ..." disappointed.Poor Raine, she must be really looking forward to this day!"Mr. Logan, there's Mam Runs. So, let us go, your daughter wanna go out, Sir?" She makes the 'Sir' sound so sa
Beth curled up lazily on her bed. She was supposed to be teaching Raine this afternoon, but she called Mam Runs and said she had the flu and fever. Even though she came to work the morning shift... She isn't really sick, she is just allergic...allergic to go to that house...with the possibility of meeting...that guy.She doesn't want to see Logan again, no, no! Beth closed her eyes tightly, trying to shake off the terrible image of the car in the rain the previous few days. Aarggghhh, that playboy widower! What does he want? Beth felt humiliated, tarnished, abused!Suddenly her cell phone rings: it is Logan's house number. There's no way Logan could have called, right?"Hello?" Beth greeted in a hoarse voice."Beth, please get well soon," said Raine's soft voice, making Beth feels guilty."Thank you, Raine," Beth answered in her normal voice."You're welcome, Beth. Oh yes, next week, take me to my mother's house, okay?" asked Raine, her voic
Beth hadn't been teaching Raine for two weeks. The first reason, Beth knew, because of her impudence, Logan would have fired her without a word. Second, this is reinforced by the absence of calls from Mam Runs or Raine. Third, Beth had no intention of returning to Logan's house. She is focused on his work at the outlet and is looking for a new private Math student.She liked Raine, very much, but she didn't like Raine's father. Logan was too cocky, too wild, and . . . too lustful, Beth thought with a shudder. All the things that happened to her…and all the gossip about him flashed through her head. Logan is indeed very well known in the company he works for, as the male player number one. He is a ruthless billionaire, he is known to have some other business...and is known to have his share at the company. He works in technical programming and computer only for his passion.But since she never sees Raine and Logan again, for some reason, Beth felt empty in her li
Raine greeted Beth with a warm hug. Her big black eyes sparkled when she saw Beth, and the smile never left her tiny lips."I'm glad Dad finally allowed me to see you again!!"Beth embraced the warmth and fragrance of Raine's little body. Only then did she realize how much she missed this little girl, a strange thing, considering that this girl was only her private student."Beth . . . sorry that I cried and left you in my room. I've been wanting to apologize to you for a long time." Raine's black eyes stared at Beth, feeling very guilty.Beth stroked her head in a lavender purple headband. "I see, Raine, you don't need to apologize. Now... how are you doing?""I'm fine. I have a father who loves me and is kind to me. That's... that's enough."Beth felt sympathy for Raine. This little girl, really brave to face life. If she were in Raine's position, she wouldn't be as strong as this girl."Oh yes, do you have a boyfriend?" Raine asked
Beth felt herself stupid, and useless. Why she agreed with Logan about the impromptu marriage. She can still work...though the salary is small, if she collected it... it can be quite a lot of money. Agh... why is she so tempted by a lot of money? Today Beth went to work as usual, she had a shift with a new area manager, her name was Shania."Are you Beth?" asked a woman who looks elegant and trendy, she wears a mini dress from a well-known boutique and can be immediately recognized by anyone who sees it, plus a black blazer and extraordinarily high heels. Beth felt that she was a dwarf when she stood parallel to Shania. The new manager."Yes, Ma'am. Nice to meet you, I hope we can work well together." The answer is polite and simple."Hmm... I have something to talk to you about." Shania said wearing her glasses"Yes ma'am." Beth obeyed and followed Shania who was sitting in the waiting chair at their outlet."I have a recommendation for you, actua
Beth walked back to her house in a frenzy, lucky that all the private students in her course were currently on semester break, and that meant studying with her is also off. At least Beth could clear her frantic mind. Along the way, she blamed herself for being too rash in making decisions, why did she have to agree to a request from that annoying Burger! Tomorrow she has to go to the head office to meet the man… 'Ouch.. what should I talk to him then? Do I have to be stubborn and ask Logan to call off the goddamn marriage? Or… aghh…' Beth's daydream was suddenly interrupted by a ringing tone on her cell phone.Beth walked towards the housing where her parents' house was, she had just gotten off the public bus when the call came in."Hello?" She said, looked at the screen on her cellphone, there is no contact name from the foreign number that called her, "Who is this?"“Hmmm, your future husband's number is not saved. Impolite! I'm your
