As I continued watching them, I noticed a movement from the corner of my eye and turned in that direction to see the cause –and it was Luka, he was walking towards us with the lady from earlier although she stopped and walked in another direction. I wouldn't like to mince words, but this Luka guy seemed like he was born for the runway and the cameras. He looked beautiful and walked majestically just like a pro. I wonder how long he had being in the industry.It's just a few buttons away."You're back." Ian muttered.I blinked at him. Uh? How did he know that with his eyes closed.Darling, there's something called scent. Inner Kiara stated. Perfume, just in case you don't understand, he's wearing one.I rolled my eyes, inwardly. I'm not dumb.Yeah, you're not. "Yes." He stood over Ian, smiling as he searched his face. "Are you sleeping?""No, I'm not." His eyelids fluttered and opened revealing those beautiful pair of eyes. "I was just in my thoughts." He replied. "Were you able to re
I opened the door and stepped into the apartment, staring around. It was quiet but then again, the apartment was always quiet. I shut the door behind me, inhaled the sweet scent of the air freshener and smiled. It's been quite a while since I came here and that was because of my busy schedule. I walked into the living room, dropped my bag on the couch, took my tab and began the day's work and although, there wasn't much work to do –thanks to Adrian, I didn't know how he managed to pull it off but he did and for that I was grateful. So, all I had to do was to plan and manage Ian's schedule for the upcoming week and submit my report to the agency. As I continued with my work, I realized the reason behind the unusual quietness –Ian wasn't in the house. Which meant that he didn't come home yesterday or he was out at the gym.After about thirty minutes, the door beeped indicating that someone was coming in. I raised my head, turning in the direction of the door just as it opened with Ian
"And I never said, I wasn't your fan." I finished, quietly.He stared at me and dissolved into laughter, his voice reverberating through the room.Oh my God!! What a scene. This should last forever.I stared at him confused as to why he would laugh."It's just so cute and funny, watching you try to justify yourself." He smiled.Awwn, he called me cute because I made him laugh. I should do that more often.I puffed my cheek with air to prevent myself from smiling and exhaled. "Is it true?""Yes," he answered. "The speculations are somewhat true. They did approach me but I'm yet to give them an answer and they're willing to wait for that answer, desperately hoping it will be in the positive." He said, I smiled. "I think the female lead role has been agreed on.""Mhm." I nodded. "Yeah, I saw it but I've forgotten her name."He brought his leg up in the chair, folded it, and placed a hand on his knee. "I'm still contemplating it." He pressed his lips together and glanced at me. "I don't k
"What do you think?" Ian turned and faced me with a cute baby dress held to his chest. Cut to a few minutes later, after our tour around the shopping mall, we finally got to our destination –a department store that sells mother care and kiddies items. And so, here we were confused as to what to pick because a certain someone had a very sophisticated sense of fashion.I stood with my arms crossed, eyeing the piece of clothing in his hand. "Sure, it's pretty." I turned to the rack beside me and picked out another set of clothes. "Don't you think it would be best if we pick something that suits the baby?" I asked, turning to face him. "Something that exactly matches the sex of the baby."He tilts his head at me. "That would be nice if only I knew the sex of the baby but sadly, I don't."Perfect. I thought. So, we're doing some blind shopping.I made a face at him, one that read 'serious'.He shrugged and smiled. "I didn't ask and I told her not to tell me." He turned his gaze from me a
I shook my head with a few blinks, letting out an exasperated sigh. "Rosa, would you please come out of that room?!" I yelled for the umpteenth time."I'm coming." She yelled back. "Just give me a few more minutes." I pinched the bridge of the nose and slumped my shoulders. For just how long? That was the same word she had been saying for the past thirty minutes since we decided to go out. For Christ sake, we aren't going for some uptown party or a club, we were just going chill in a restaurant and probably fill our eyes.I took a glance at the time and was about to call her again when she emerged out from her room, wearing a sundress and an herculean sandals with a radiant smile on her face.Her sundress was similar to mine although in another colour and design. She looked gorgeous but she didn't need to know that. It will only inflate her already huge ego."Hey." She walked up to me, purse in hand still smiling. "Why that grumpy look on your face?"I dropped my phone and gave h
We clinked our glasses and proceeded to drink our wine. In between, I noticed that Rosa had paused her action and her smile had slipped off her face.I blinked, confused.What's going on?I arced my head at her, frowning slightly. "What?""Speak of the devil." Was her response."Mhmn," I arced my brow and turned in her line of sight.Lo and behold, I found Reece standing at the door of the restaurant with a group of people I would describe as an entourage.His eyes roamed around the room as if searching for something until his eyes landed on us. He broke into a smile and whispered something to the guy next to him before making his way over to us.I turned around and looked at Rosa who had a scowl on her face.Oh, no."Hey cousin." He greeted her with a smug smile."Hey yourself." Rosa huffed."Oops," he smiled. "Seems like someone's mad at me." Rosa eyed him from the corner of her eyes but said nothing."What could be my offence?" He mused.She snorted without saying a word.I chuckle
Reece sat back and cocked his head, listening to me talk with rapt attention. He met my gaze for a moment, his eyes gleamed with amusement and he smiled.I had to admit that his eyes didn't lose their intensity. His dark brown eyes were nothing out of the ordinary but they held this much intensity that could make one quiver at first glance. It was sometimes uncomfortable but beautiful.His eyes slipped from me to Rosa who was smiling like a Cheshire cat. I didn't miss the way he slightly shook his head at his unsuspecting cousin. She was engrossed in her thought."Good to know that you enjoy doing your job." He said with a half smile. "Considering its type.""Yeah," I replied, fiddling with my hand. "Congratulations though.""For what?" His expression morphed into confusion and I found it rather cute."On your position as the vice president of Stuart's conglomerate.""Oh," He snorted a laugh. "Thank you.""Look at him acting all modest," Rosa stated."What can I say?" He smiled, smugl
Saturdays were easily my favorite because most of the time, they were my free days. I get to do my own thing without the fear of being questioned or queried. And today being one, I'd really hoped that I'll be spending it quietly in my house probably sleeping but apparently some other person had a special plan for me. So, here I was, standing in front of a tennis court courtesy of Adrian who by the ways was smiling like he had won a lottery."Hey Kiara, could you hold these for me?" He held out a tennis rack and bag with a crooked smile.I so wish I could wipe that smile off his face. It was annoying after he had practically forced me into coming in the name of work."Come on," he urged with a lopsided smile. "I know you want to kill me but look on the brighter side, Richard is going to be there."Yeah, this was another reason I'd agreed to come. I hadn't seen Richard in a long while because of our ever busy schedule. I let out a sigh and took the bag with the tennis rack from him."Go
