The small piece of cake Lucius shoved in his mouth made him realize how great it tasted. Though despite the tension Olivia was giving him, he still managed to smile and wink at her every time he catches her glaring at him and she would hiss at him back.
It would take me a long time to fully claim her heart.
"Son, how do you make a tissue dance?" Ferdinand asked aga
Emily placed her cake on the table as she types Olivia's name in the search bar. She noticed her friend requests, messages, and notifications three words away from the search bar – empty. She shrugged and entered Olivia's name.Countless of Olivia Lovett appeared in the search results but hers stood out due to her profile picture. Under the sun, she sat on the small wooden bridge with a fierce look applied on her face. The black knee-high boots she wore is paired with a black bodycon dress and a beige cardigan. Their colors, even her skin tone enhanced by the touch of the sun rays.
"This lad here officer is a rapist!" Yelled an old woman as she pointed her wrinkly finger at Lucius. Her scratchy voice went out with the overwhelming look of anger and disgust combined found in her face.Olivia continued thrashing as countless of 'help me' escaped her
The kids and their parents started running off as the rain chases them. Lucius and Olivia switched from one person to another, helping the ones in need to find a taxi to ride. The first few persons they helped gave them a smile consisting of gratitude. Lucius spotted an old woman – the one who called him first a rapist earlier – waving down a taxi that passes by but none would stop. He jogged over to her, leaving Olivia behind."Let me help you." He panted.
His face brightened as he saw Emily pulling over by the park. He jogged towards her and she raised her hand, mouthing him to stop. She rolled the window down, "Wait until you're dry.""I can't. It's still raining."Emily shot him a glare and her jaw ticked, "Fine." She pulled out a shirt from the back and placed it down on the front passenger seat. "Get in."Not speaking another word, he got inside and sighed as he sat down. Emily turned on the engine and they drifted off.They reached the house in a jiffy. Emily kept a stern expression as she drives fast along the empty, wet road while Lucius couldn't stop wondering why she has been acting the same whenever she drives him ho
They watched a movie after they ate dinner. Emily sat on the left side of the couch, Victoria in the middle and Lucius on the right side. She did everything to avoid him, especially her mother’s teasing. They shut the lights off for a better movie experience. Emily’s eyes drooped heavily and she fought the urge to fall asleep. The movie was still going on and it was barely halfway through. A soft snore escaped her lips.Lucius focused on the movie playing in front of them. However, he couldn’t forget the
After Denise took a picture. She handed the phone to Lucius and told him to take them a picture. With hesitation, he claimed her phone and sighed as he positioned the cellphone steadily. Ferdinand, Denise, and Olivia positioned themselves in front of him, they smiled straight through the camera. Lucius bore his eyes onto the beautiful lady he saw through the screen. Smiling, he tapped on the button on the center at the lower part and the light flashed.They readied themselves after. Denise went back up the stairs. Olivia turned on her phone and checked herself through the screen. Ferdinand rushed towards the garage. Whilst Lucius, he sat on the sofa and slouched his back. He turne
“Where are you?” Lucius’ voice sounded louder. The beat of his heart stayed at its own normal pace yet it pounded hard against his chest. Short breaths forced themselves out of his lungs. His brows knitted together by themselves as he eagers to know where Victoria is.Instead of answering his question, Victoria hanged up on him. Lucius hissed. He raised the phone on his hand as he attempts to smash it and watch it collide with the floor but he hesitated and stuck it back into his pocket. He ran his finge
Tears gushed out of Emily’s eyes as she held the handle of the pocket knife tightly. She needed to do this now. Being alone in her room while her mother is watching a movie from below and Lucius out attending a party is what she considered a perfect opportunity to finally give her life back to God himself, or rather, to Grim. She has created a few cuts from her wrists reaching up to her forearm but the cuts were not deep. This time, she’ll be doing things seriously. She pressed the knife on the cut she made with one vein as her target underneath. She pressed harder and hissed. Another batch of tears gushed out. The pain was agony but the pain she felt inside was unbea
