Mag-log inLouis always managed to melt me with his kisses, his warm lips gently caressing mine, but whenever things started getting heated, he would always stop himself, as if he knew exactly how to keep things from going too far.That was the thing I liked about him the most—I could trust him. Just like before, he stopped, leaving Louis and me sitting side by side with chocolate-covered strawberries in our hands and huge smiles on our faces.“It feels like…” I said, trying to find the right word for what I was feeling. I was searching for a name for this strange, wonderful feeling inside me.He answered immediately. “Blissful!”I nodded, completely agreeing with him. “Do you think we can finish all of this?” I asked, looking at the mountain of chocolate, which was actually a machine that kept the chocolate melted, flowing like a fountain before circulating it back up again.“If only I could take it home…” I replied dreamily. He burst out laughing, as if my answer was exactly what he had expect
Lindsay and I sat there in silence for a while, both lost in thought as we processed everything that had just happened. “Do you want to go home?” I finally asked, glancing at her. “If you really want to go back to Vegas, I’ll go with you.”She turned to me, blinking several times. “Are you kidding?” she asked. I shook my head.“No, I don’t want to go there.” Lindsay’s expression hardened as she continued, “They’ve gone way too far, especially that creature named Dave!” There was a deep anger in her voice, and I could tell she had been holding it in for quite some time.“Then what? Aren’t you worried about Dave?” I asked cautiously. Lindsay immediately shook her head.“No! Of course not!” she snapped. “He can become whatever he wants, I don’t care anymore.” She stood up and stretched her arms, looking determined to enjoy the vacation instead.I honestly couldn’t believe she was willing to leave Dave behind like that. But if even his own sister didn’t care, why should I? He was an adult
Lindsay answered the phone, expecting to be scolded. She stayed silent for a moment before saying hello. I waited to see what would happen, while Lindsay occasionally glanced at me with a confused expression.She only said, “Yes… yes… and then?” Her expression slowly changed as she listened. Then she suddenly raised her voice.“Yes, but you already said I wasn’t needed there. I was stressed, and I wanted to get away from all of you. So I went on vacation, so don’t blame me!” Lindsay almost shouted.Ah… I guessed exactly what had happened. Was her grandmother really that terrifying? Then why had Madam Rose said that the old lady was kind?I waited for Lindsay to continue talking, but she only stayed silent. She sighed deeply several times, and her frustration was obvious from her face. Finally, she held the phone out to me.I was shocked. Why was she giving it to me? She looked extremely angry.“Someone wants to talk to you!” she said. I took the phone from her while she stared at me a
Louis wasn't joking at all when he said he had rented an entire floor of the resort. The rooms were incredibly spacious, and Lindsay, Louis, Richard, and I each had our own rooms. My room even had a living room, a kitchen, and another sitting area, which was absolutely insane!Louis told us to get some rest. He said we would gather again in the afternoon, and the resort staff would deliver our meals so we could have a perfect time to relax. I couldn't hide my smile as I stared at the bright blue ocean outside my window.The water was a beautiful turquoise blue. It looked like a precious jewel under the sunlight. Indeed, this was one of God's most incredible creations.There were tropical trees everywhere. I drank in the scenery with my eyes, as if they were desperately thirsty for the beauty in front of me. I could have stared at that view forever.Louis's assistant had provided clothes for all of us back at the apartment. Lindsay, Richard, and Louis had received clothes as well, and
We boarded the flight just as Louis had promised. We had breakfast at his apartment, where a private chef cooked for us. I was deeply impressed because everything was simply incredible.Louis asked me to sit beside him. He fastened my seat belt for me with gentle hands. This was his private jet, and his name was painted on the side of the aircraft.I couldn't stop wondering about him. Was he secretly a prince from some mysterious country? The thought sounded ridiculous, but nothing about Louis seemed ordinary anymore."Have you ever flown before?" he asked.I nodded. Far behind us, Lindsay and Richard were kissing passionately. Their lips seemed glued together, and I quickly looked away.I turned back toward Louis. I couldn't hide the blush spreading across my cheeks. This was so embarrassing."Do you want a kiss like that?" he asked teasingly.I punched his shoulder lightly. How did he know I had just witnessed Lindsay and Richard making out? It was like he had read my mind."Are you
That kiss kept replaying in my dreams. I only slept for two hours. Louis's face and that kiss came back again and made my heart feel like it was about to burst. Ah... Louis!If I could choose, I would cut my life short. I would erase everything before I met Dave and jump straight to this moment. I wish I had met Louis first, before I became broken like I am now.Someone knocked on my bedroom door. It was Lindsay, and her face was red as if she had been crying for hours. She walked toward me like a robot and hugged me tightly without saying a word.I was already awake. I sat against the headboard while waiting for the morning sunlight to shine through the apartment window. This apartment looked incredibly expensive, and I admired every part of its interior.The wallpaper looked almost real. If Louis had really designed everything himself, then he was truly a genius when it came to art. The more I looked around, the more amazed I became."What's wrong, Linds?" I asked.I gently rubbed h
