Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 42 Stranger things
"If Rosetta hadn't noticed, you would have beared this pain for how long, huh?" So it was Rosetta who had told him. She shut her eyes, leaning into him, letting the dizziness take over. "You shouldn't race ever again. What if you had died?" He kept admonishing, "those tracks were really cunny." She smiled, feeling warm at his concern. "Luna..." She heard him call but he sounded very far. She slipped into the darkness.*Rosetta was furious. After all her rant and effort to win just so she could go on the dates with Domenico, he ended up losing. How much of a ... Urrrgh! "Can't you drive faster!?" For the fact that he was Luna's fiancee made her detest him. Birds of a feather flock together, talk more of getting married. Percy was fed up. He understood she was annoyed at not getting her man but it wasn't his fault he was far better than the man she clamoured for. After all, he also didn't want to come with her; he'd rather play chess with his fiancee. "You have to calm down."
Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 43 Rosetta...
The delicious aroma wafted into her nostrils, making her salivate. "Did you cook?" She queried instantly. He shrugged. Her mouth fell open, "You cooked!" He chuckled. "Why are you making such a fuss about it? When I brought you in and the doctor explained your condition to me, he also told me that it'll take a couple of hours before you'd wake so I decided to cook. It just came to me since we were both hungry and the doctor said you'd need food after you wake. Its nothing, really. I rarely cook doesn't mean I don't cook and I just decided to put my good skills to use. What's wrong with that?"*Domenico was nervous! The thought made her laugh out. The tables had finally turned. He was the one who always made people nervous and unsure of themselves. Now he was the one blabbering nonsense in her presence. "What's funny?" Her laughter increased at his frown. "You... You're nervous!" She forced out between laughs. His frown deepened. "Keep laughing and I'll take back my food." He
Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 44 Enticing Revenge
"Nothing much. Just make this last few minutes bearable for me." She nodded, forcing herself to keep mute. Percy used the opportunity to look her over, he couldn't deny the faint stirrings of familiarity that had been gnawing at him since he first saw her but he couldn't quite figure out where he had met her before. "Do you have a sister?" He suddenly blurted. She looked at him, a brow raised. "Yes. Why?" "Do you dislike her?" He asked again. He was suddenly restless. "Very much. Again, why are you asking?" Percy stared at her some more before realization dawned on him. His eyes popped out. "Rosetta."*Rosetta watched his reaction amusedly, "Is my name that enticing?" He quickly shook his head, composing himself. How could he not have remembered her? "You're acting strange." She commented, picking up her wine glass. "Tell me" He began, curious and intrigued by this sharp mouthed, beautiful, classy woman. She had really grown. "Tell you what?" Rosetta thought Percy's looks
Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 45 Just one car racing
"The car is too quiet" Percy finally broke the heavy long silence, "What's up?" She shrugged. He was the one driving though she had offered to take him home, it was easier than him giving her directions. "You are not the only one that feels strange. We spent over three hours talking, I guess we have a connection after all." She glanced at him and an idea suddenly popped into her head. "I want revenge." "Revenge?" "On Domenico. Spend the rest of the night with me."*Percy was stunned. "There are a few bars open and parties going on. We could pop in one. Don't worry, I'll explain to Luna if she misunderstands." His first instinct was to object but Rosetta wasn't ready to back down. "Please." He hesitated. What could possibly go wrong? " Fine" He sighed, "Where?" Rosetta beamed. "Reverse. I have the perfect spot." ° Early Sunday morning, Luna was the first to wake. She appeared puzzled at first. What she was lying on didn't feel like her bed neither did the air smell like h
Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 46 Shattered
"I had good company." There was a slight smirk on Marino's face. Domenico shook his head. When would his friend ever change?He remembered his earlier promise and made a phone call to Rosetta. It rang and rang but no one picked. Percy took Luna home afterwards to wash up and then they headed to church, nothing seemingly wrong with them. But even though they had each other, both of them still found their minds drifting back to the events of the previous night. It was just one car racing, one evening of fun but it changed everything. Nothing was ever going to remain the same.*Percy wasn't one to dabber in uncertainty. He didn't like feeling unsure about anything especially not about the relationship he cherished so much. He wanted to marry her, he loved her, his Luna; but now, after the previous evening, he found himself second guessing. Not second guessing neither was he unsure. It was nice that things had happened this way. He himself had known that he would have to eventually clear
Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 47 Change
"What!" She gasped out, "you two are breaking up!? No way! No way, Luna! You fight for him! Don't you let him go!" But Luna was pulling off the engagement ring already. It flew the short distance to Percy but never made it, it hit the tiled floors with a clang. A clang that shook Percy and Gertrude to the core. Luna was never violent. A bang not a clink this time had Percy jumping to his feet in realization of the damage he had caused. Gertrude flung the hot water jug in her hand at Percy. He dodged just in time to not let its hot contents touch his face. The glass jug, like a sign, shattered to pieces.Five years later... •Our selfishness is our downfall. •It's okay to not be okay but it's not okay to blame others for not being okay. No one is your heart or soul or mind and hence, no one controls it. You do. You are the master of all your actions. •It's okay to make mistakes, what matters is rising up from them and apologizing to those you wronged. •We blame our problems/mist
Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 48 Incompetent
"You look like a promising hardworking engineer and it's a pity to see you waste your talents on such a worthless company that can't take good care of it's workers. I mean, look at you. If you won't take my offer this instant then get out and never return." Domenico bowed respectfully with a forced, "Thank you sir." before walking out. The whole short bus ride and eventual walk back to his company; because he has exhausted all his cash and he hadn't been given transport allowance; he practically hid himself in the walls. Did he look that bad?*"Two! Just two out of five contracts! How useless are you! So incompetent! How can I let you work as an engineer when you can't do the simple work of a marketer! Useless! Get out of my sight!" Domenico trudged tiredly to his home some one kilometer from his company. He had no cash on him for transport and he had left work with his salary deducted, again. He could envision his empty cupboards and fridge. Even the wine he longed to drink was t
Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 49 Family
"You won't find the right one because you'll chase her away with your disgusting attitude." "Don't scare me." Marino chuckled. He suddenly jumped up. "Let's head downtown, your house feels so gloomy." He laughed but didn't protest, "Drinks on you." "Sure."*Domenico sat in a cafe two days after his and Marino's late night out. It was late in the evening but he wasn't ready to report back to his boss. That day was a mass failure, no contracts. He had a dreary feeling he would be fired. It would be so much better for him. He would go back to his home town and live with his family and perform whatever odd jobs he could. He looked down at his empty coffee cup. He was deceiving himself, he'd never be able to face the pity looks he would get. He'd go back to them alright but when he had made something of himself. The cafe door opened and a lady entered. He froze, his heart rate palpitating. The tall brunette looked too familiar, too famil... He sighed, relaxing when he saw her face. Ho
