S A N D Y

I couldn't believe I was doing this. I couldn't blame myself though because I just wanted to do this since I didn't have anything exciting in my life or the nearest future. At least, I was going to waste a few years married to my best friend. It wasn't like there would be any difference anyway.

As I heard the elevator ding, signifying that it reached my stop, I pushed my body off the cold wall of the elevator and watched the doors slide open. I walked out and started making my way to the hallway on the other end of the hall.

I stopped walking when I saw Anthony come out of the glass doors of the entrance to the hallway with a smile on his face. He never smiled so cheerily at work unless he just signed one of his huge deals. I continued to walk in his direction and froze when he cupped my cheeks and kissed them. He pulled me into his arms, leaving my arms stiff on my sides and my mouth open from shock.

“What are you doing?” I whispered and his chest rumbled from him chuckli

    Anthony’s POV I woke up feeling better than I have ever been. For months, my sleep schedule has been a mess. Even when I slept, it never lasted past one or two hours. The most was three hours. My mental state was a mess ever since my father announced that the rightful ownership won't be passed to me.Rather, it would be that motherfucker Trent Flintwood. Every day since the day I was told I would even step down as the COO, I have not been at rest. The company was a child to me. Ever since I graduated from college, I have been there, working hard to keep the company afloat and suddenly, I was getting voted out by the majority of the board of directors and shareholders.Additionally, my relationship had been hanging on a thin thread. I was going insane and all I could do was break things off with Sandy, which was the greatest mistake of my life. But right now, I am happy. I had her back and that was all that mattered. She was here with me, beside me once again. For the first time in a

    Sandy's POV I was stunned to my bones at what was happening. Anthony was here, in my apartment, hours away from home. He was here, holding my face and kissing me. Was this some sort of dream?I blinked when he pulled away from my lips and pressed his forehead against mine. His cold hands on my cheeks was the only thing that told me that this felt real. I blinked again and tilted my head away to have a look at him.“Sandy… I got your text,” he said.I took a step back as shock took over me. I was still confused on how he was here? What was going on?Anthony walked into the apartment and I closed the door then pressed my back against it. I eyed his back as he faced away from me. I watched him take off his soaked suit before he turned around. He had a small smile on his face and a dull look in his eyes.“Sandy… I'm back,” he said.“Huh?”What did he mean?Anthony sighed. “I'm done with everything. I'm done lying to everyone, I'm done lying to you, I'm done lying to me.”I blinked rapi

    Sandy's POV I woke up feeling tired even though I had slept early last night. My limbs ached, my mouth felt soggy and my nose was sensitive. For the past few days, I have been waking up with a nasty headache and a tired body which was accompanied by a slight fever. The fever was not much but it was becoming suspicious when it lasted for five days.Ever since I came back to my apartment, I have been preparing to go back to where I belong but I had changed my mind and decided to prepare my mind and soul for what was to come. Three weeks had gone by and I was ready to go back but these bouts of sickness were becoming something else.It wasn't helping since I was moving to another state but I was glad that by midday or late afternoons, I was always feeling better.As I forced myself out of my bare bed, my head became light. I held both sides of my head and shut my eyes against the sudden tilting of the room. I took deep breaths and my stomach churned. My throat tightened and clenched, w

    Sandy's POV I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I groaned, hating that my sweet sleep was cut short. I was having a great dream where Anthony fucked me into oblivion, giving me so much pleasure and making me feel brand new. I wished it was real because I have missed him so much that I craved his touches. But it had all been a dream.I sighed then blinked and furrowed my eyebrows at the glass wall beside me by the bed. It looked strange and different. This was not my bedroom wall and the room felt too airy and cold. I rubbed my eyes and rolled onto my back then sat up at the unfamiliar place.Then I gasped. The dream was not a dream but it had been a reality. Anthony and I had sex. Here on this bed, in his mother's penthouse.I covered my mouth and screamed into it before I stopped, worried that he might be here. I looked at the other side of the bed, it was empty. I quickly got out of bed and picked up my discarded clothes. When I picked up my top, I kissed my teeth. He had t

    Sandy's POV My heart was hammering with every single step I was taking toward the penthouse. The large expanse of the hallway didn't help my state of mind. I was scared and nervous as this would be the first time since I was seeing Anthony after a long time.We had broken up badly so I was not expecting a warm welcome but I was here for something else. We were going to talk.I stopped before the door and raised the keycard to my face. I stared at the plastic with wide eyes before moving my hand to the sensor on the door handle. I pressed the card against the smooth surface of the sensor and held my breath when it beeped.I swallowed and opened the door then stepped into the place. The living room was huge with a few pieces of furniture in the center yet it felt empty. I looked around the place, eyeing the ceiling high windows that gave me a view of the other buildings outside.I strolled toward the curved couch in the center of the place and froze when I heard footsteps coming from

    Sandy's POV I could hear the beating of my heart as I stared at the woman I thought was my best friend. She was focused on the screen of her computer, not looking at me and pretending like I was not in front of her. It hurt that my life was a complete one-eighty. I was confused about what was happening. How did Anthony and Gina suddenly become close in a few months? I would understand if they became close friends but marriage? It was hard to believe. Plus, what Gina was saying made no sense to me. Anthony did not just let anyone comfort him. He would rather die in silence than let anyone that isn't me comfort him.But things had changed, Sandy. I may not know Anthony like the way I did in the beginning. So many things can change in a few months, especially when communication was cut off.“You’re still here?” Gina asked and laughed softly. “If you think I'm lying. I can text Anthony and you two can meet up. He will tell you the truth since you no longer believe your best friend… I do
