Chapter 39
Florian ring my phone nearly half an hour later but I was too drain to even answer him. I slumped down directly on the bed as I scroll through the messages he left after two missed calls.
Florian :
Sorry about that. Are you still up?
Florian :
Good night, baby. I'll call you again tomorrow, sleep tight.
"Good night, baby. I'll call you again tomorrow, sleep tight!" I mimicked in irritation. I threw the phone to my side before pulling the blanket over my hide with slight harshness. I was rolling my eyes heavenward underneath the thin sheet.
The sun was up and the neighbor's chicken was already clucking loudly when I woke up from my long slumber. I was in a hurry since I only got an hour left before my work. I didn't even bother to dress up nicely anymore. After putting on a plain black shirt and a tight denim jeans, I hurriedly left the house and ran to the café.
Agatha was already in there and en

I remembered fainting right after I set foot inside the café, but I didn’t expect to wake up on the hospital bed with Ryan sitting on the small bench across the white alcohol-scented room. His eyes sparkled in relief when he saw my conscious state. But before he could even walk towards me, the door creaked open and Regina got into me first. “Nina! You’re awake. Thank goodness! How are you feeling?” She cried out, gripping onto my cold palms tightly. I forced out a weak smile. “I feel a lot better now compared to when I woke up this morning. Thanks for bringing me here.” Her face scrunched up in a chastising manner. “Why did you even go to work today when you’re perfectly aware that you’re sick?! You’re lucky Mom wasn’t there or you’d hear an earful from her!” She said furiously. “Nina, more than anything, we prioritize our employees’ health first. A simple text or email would do, you know?” My lips curled up into a smile. I do not have
Forever & Always Epilogue
Forever doesn't exist. But with you, I'm willing to prove them wrong."After all this time?" Dumbledore asked, stupefied as Snape's memories and buried feelings slowly unfold right in front of his eyes."Always," he answered.Always. Constant. Never changing. Like my feelings for you."Angelus! Follow me to my office." Sister Anna had said, her eyes as stern as always, as if telling me that I'd be dead if I fail to set foot inside her office in ten seconds. And so, I gladly followed. But of course, right after I excused myself to my fellow orphan friends. Especially to Gaston whom I was the closest with.A man, and I presumed his wife, were seated side by side in front of Sister Anna's desk. The old man smiled warmly at me while the beautiful, elegant lady remained silent and expressionless. Her eyes mirrored the chief nun's strictness. I couldn't lock eyes with her for too long 'cause I felt as if she's judgin
Forever & Always Prologue
A reclusive billionaire without family or friends is in wreck and develops a temporary amnesia from the injuries. Without any identification, he falls in love with Nina, the nurse who nurses him back to health. As his memory slowly returns, he realizes that friendship and love have been missing from his life, and he has found both in her.*****My two decades of hardship in school went to ashes in a blink of an eye.I looked at the piece of paper in my hand, the court finally made their judgment this morning. And today, luck isn't on my side. I let out a frustrated sigh as I plop down wearily on the burning white sand of Whale Bay, one Saturday noon. How am I gonna tell my mother about this?All the hardships and sacrifices I made just so I can crawl my way out of college just went to waste. For someone who was born from a poor family, I had to enter multiple and unimaginable jobs just to support my education. I had so

My hand shook a little as I typed on the keypad of the ATM machine. I've been unemployed for almost a month now and I couldn't just carelessly spend the rest of my savings or I'd end up in the streets, starving.I looked at the receipt and sighed. Based on my calculations, my current balance can last for at least three more months. But am I really gonna wait til I run out of money before I work my butt off again?I let out another sigh, a bit harsher this time. I can't enter any medical facility anymore because I lost my license as a nurse. Maybe I can try to fit in the corporate world? I still managed to finish college and I have a decent degree. Maybe I can manage to find a job that'll suit me in that field.The loud crashing of waves on the shore filled my ears. The tranquil atmosphere of the beach calmed me down a bit as I watch a few of our townsmen, or maybe t
Forever & Always Chapter 2
I jolted awake from my dreamless slumber when I heard some noises outside. My eyes automatically searched for the wall clock hanging across my dim room, it reads three-thirty.Jack usually leaves during this hour to go fishing along with the neighbors. I walked towards my window, slightly opening the lower panel of the jalousie. Jack was outside together with two men who were both carrying a water pail. He's in his usual fishing attire, a dirty white towel was hanging around his neck. My forehead creased in confusion. He's still gonna go fishing? I thought he'll stop since he's got a better job in the inn now?He went back inside the house to turn off the lights. Darkness enveloped the place, their flashlights were the only source of brightness. The moon was covered with thick clouds to herald a foggy morning for Willowvale. My eyes followed them until they were out of sight. Once I couldn't hear their footsteps anymore, I groggily went back to bed and c
Forever & Always Chapter 3
I didn't know it would be this boring.Obviously, the townsmen of Willowvale aren't big fans of books. People here would rather collect seashells on the shore and make a necklace out of it to earn than to sit on a corner and read, they think it's a waste of time.Mostly, it was the tourists coming in to visit the shop. Diana needs to establish a policy about silent reading 'cause it greatly affects the sale of the store. People come and go empty-handed 'cause they're allowed to read here without paying and buying the book.I mentally rolled my eyes as I watched the last costumer exited the shop. We closes at six pm and opens up at nine in the morning.Jack was outside of the inn when I passed by on my way home. The brown and off-white uniform looked perfectly fit in him. His muscular arms were flexing sexily as he brushes the hostelry's wall with a paint roller. Another employee was beside him, they're both repainting the color of the walls to cov
Forever & Always Chapter 4
The unexplainable bitterness that succumbs to my being made it so hard for me to swallow the soft velvet cake in my mouth. For someone who claims to have cake as their all-time favorite dessert, it’s odd that I couldn’t enjoy the sweet flavor that’s currently exploring in my tongue.“Anyway, I’ll go ahead. I just dropped by to deliver the cake as a welcome gift for you,” Cassandra said, her white set of teeth were showing as she smiled sweetly at Jack. The subtle touch she made on his arm didn’t escape my eyes.This girl is getting way too comfortable being touchy to him, I thought bitterly. Well, he’s not flinching so obviously, he likes it too!I mentally rolled my eyes. She’s obviously just using the cake as a reason to see Jack. ‘Cause how the hell did she lasted for almost an hour here if she just dropped by to give us the cake? Desperate bitch!“Thank you, Miss Cassandra. I’ll w
Forever & Always Chapter 5
"Leandro..." I uttered, meeting his dark grey eyes full of malice. I took a step back when he moved to jump in the water. He dove near my direction so my face got drizzled.I continued moving backwards, my eyes never leaving him as he tried to recover from the fall. Leandro is handsome, he almost has the same physique as Jack. Though, the latter has more bulk. His family's riches only added to his appeal so he got all the girls at his disposal. But now that they're slowly losing their power and money, I wonder what vile plans he is planning underneath his sleeves.Alicia ran quickly next to me; alarmed and concerned. Leandro's reputation is really not a joke 'cause even the kids knew how fucked up he is."Hello, girls! May I join the party?" He smirked teasingly and I felt Alicia's tight grip on my hand. The kid hid fearfully behind me. I tried to force out a laugh, trying to cover up the tension I was feeling."Oh, uhm...W-we wo
