***CADEN***It’s her! It’s her one more time. I clearly told her, I don’t want to see her but she keeps on popping everywhere and at anytime.“Why are you here?” I ask rudely.“Do you think it’s my wish to be here? I have to be here because of my circumstances,” she says.Yeah! The circumstance of marriage. How can I forget that?“You’re not allowed to be here? I can’t allow you to stay over here,” I shout at her and try to shut the door but she grabs the edge of the door before that and stops me from closing it.“I am not going to apologize if you hurt you hand,” I say and pull the door but I cannot pull with as much force as I can knowing the fact that someone’s hand is actually in between the door.But she pulls it forcibly and the door flings open.“What the hell?” I shout, then I realize she isn't the one who pulled the door but it’s Julie.“The master had ordered us to reside her without any problems. Please, young master. Let her get inside,” she says.I suddenly feel like Jul
***CADEN***“Esther! You say,” I ask her one more time. She nods her head. My head couldn’t help but turn to the side where she is staying.“So, you adored her a lot?”“Not particularly of that reason but yeah, it somehow won’t let me hate her all my life. How can I hate someone with the same name as her?” she says and walks away from there.How can I hate the name?The name that belonged to my mother!ESTHER!!!I rush quickly to the guest room and stand in front of her door. I want to knock on the door but then, my palms stop in the air. Should I knock on the door?But then, I decided I should knock on the door. And I hit the door couple of times. But she doesn’t open the door. What the hell is she doing inside?Is it possible that she is sleeping right inside the room? Fuck! I wait for a few more minutes but still, she doesn’t open the door.I run backyard from where I can enter through her window. The window of course has the grills but yeah, I know how to undo them. I learned to u
***CADEN***“Caden…Baby…,” she treads her high heels towards me. God damn! Why the hell is she here?And baby? Since when have I become her baby? She is such a ridiculous person. Doesn’t she get that I am avoiding her at all costs?“Natalie!!!” I whisper her name. The way I take her name every time gets so much stressed. This girl never leaves me without a mess.She is wearing a glittery maroon-colored short dress hugging her body perfectly tight. I can see how plump her boobs are and how good her ass looks at it. She has such an amazing physique that she can be an international model. Round big brown eyes, V-shaped beautiful chin, long sharp bridged nose, plump lips, and her brown artificial curls hanging a few inches below her shoulders makes her look absolutely stunning. She can love anyone and anyone could just love her but it’s just not me.
***CADEN***“Caden! You’re here again,” I hear an officer’s voice as soon as I enter the police station. I see his mocking smile as I walk into the office. He must be feeling frustrated after seeing me for the first time in this year. I visited the station almost five times last year and that was probably for speed driving.“Did you Overspeed one more time?” he says looking down at the paper he is concentrating on right now without even looking at me.“No! I didn’t,” I run my fingers on my hair as I say that.“Then what is it?” he turns his head towards the officer standing right next to me.“We caught him fighting outside the pub. The victim is badly injured and there’s a girl hiding from him,” he says.A girl hiding from me? God! He is dragging this matter in a
***CADEN***“She’s his head maid. Julie. Aren’t you Julie?” the same tattooed guy smiles looking back at her.“Head maid? She doesn’t look like the one,” the officer answers.“Yeah! I am his head maid and I was the one who picked up the phone. Can I take him and go now?” she asks.“Twenty-four years old and a head maid in the house. It’s suspicious,” he says.“Nothing is suspicious. You can inquire with Mr. Payne. He would reply you the same that Julie is her head maid,” she adds. He rubs his finger on his chin for a few seconds and then, looks at me. I turn my head around like I am not much interested in the talk and walk away from there.I wait for her some meters away from the station. She exits the station a few minutes later. But she isn’t coming alone that irritati
***ESTHER***I want to tell him lots of things. I know he doesn’t have anything to do with me and I have absolutely nothing to do with him but even after that I can’t help but want to explain a lot of things to him. It’s my misfortune that he turned out to be the son of Mr. Payne. In whatever way, I want to avoid him I can’t avoid him at all. More than being just a surrogate for a conglomerate family, it hurts me more to see his face everyday in the same house. Why the hell should that happen? I know it was just a flick of moment. It was just my mistake. I got carried away after seeing someone who tend to be caring after a long time of my loneliness. It really had been long that no one had taken care of me. The way he behaved just melted me that night and it was nothing more than that. Yes! It was nothing more than that, at least I guess that. But his presence in the house is so much disturbing to me. The hatred I see in his eyes in every second when he stands in front of me make
***CADEN**“You must be joking right now? Do you even know what the hell are you talking about? Are you just out of your mind?” she scowls all of a sudden in the restaurant.At first, I believed she was quite uncomfortable talking in the restaurant but right now, it seems as if she isn’t scared of anything. Where did she get this much enthusiasm from?I lift my head towards her face which seems to be infuriated. There are so many questions she wants to ask me but she isn’t asking me at all.Ask me! Just ask me any questions that you want to ask. I am willing to answer it all but I also need the answers to my questions.Her red face makes my heart get distracted and she takes advantage of my distraction. She gets out of her seat and towards the exit door. She places the cash on the payment counter and walks out of there without even getting her change.“Her change?” the boy at the counter calls her but she walks so quickly.“Give me that,” I say as I grab her money and follow behind he
***ESTHER*** I hear the loud music being played in the room. It’s the music I like the most. As an enthusiastic girl who was into sports whole heartedly, it is so much unlike me when I play relaxing piano music instead of rocking ones. I close my eyes feeling the depth of that music. I feel as if I am finding peace and calmness in that soothing music. I am just out of this world and there is only serendipity around me. Oh! It’s heaven. I sense as if I am walking on the yellow field with the soft breeze inclining the fruits of paddy filled with grains. I am wearing a red velvet one-piece just below my knee and am walking through the field. I hear the laughter. It’s such a beautiful piece of art that anyone could ever hear. It’s so much beauty that I couldn’t help and smile at its melody. “Erie!” I hear someone calling me. I have only one person in the whole world who could call me by that name. I feel so much happy when I hear that name. I turn back as I hear that voice. They are
