Everything went according to my plan. Craig and Eroz did get back together. The four of us were happy, laughing when we arrived home. We came from a dinner in a prestigious restaurant and watched the gigs of a popular band in the country. We did a lot of things throughout the day, and I witnessed how pleased Craig was, even just holding hands with Eroz secretly when they had a chance to touch each other. "What's going on here?" Cara exposed herself when Zammy opened the main door. The four of us looked at each other and then chuckled a bit. "You are still alive," I uttered, mocking her, then averted my gaze. It's been a few days since we haven't appropriately spoken or seen each other, even inside the house. Before Cara could utter again, I hit Zammy. "So, when are you going to teach me how to drive," I asked with a broad smile and a tone of excitement. My hand landed on her waist, too. "Hi, sister." I heard Craig greet Cara, but I felt her stare was on me. We were already in
Somehow, Cara's presumption is valid. I won't deny that I've been a bit dependent on Zammy these past few days, as Cara seems to have forgotten about me. I felt sad and alone all of a sudden. From the very beginning, Cara was the reason why my marriage to Craig became less heavy in the end 'cause I held on to what she said and promised... Cara will stay beside me, that she won't leave me, that she will take care of me, that she won't let me be alone. I depended on her the entire time, even if I didn't plan all along. I suddenly felt like that, and I got used to leaning on her.This vast house that can't really be called home isn't so sad because of Cara.I was eager to head home after school, hoping that I would have a chance to catch up with her. I could endure to stay in this empty place because of her. "Hey! Are you crying?" I turned my back on her and quickly wiped away the tears I didn't realize were falling.It looked like the gathered and stuck dudgeon suddenly escaped from
We were having a good time, chitchatting while eating. Eroz and Craig are so sweet to one another. There is still a pinch of misery in my heart to see them, but at the same time, I am happier to witness Craig with a smile all over his complexion. While Cara on my side was busy fidgeting her phone from time to time.God knows who the fuck is snatching her through the phone, and it aggravates me.She was with me physically, but her mind presence was elsewhere, which was damn annoying. Meanwhile, Zammy grabbed all of our attention for an instant. She looked like she had something urgent to say that couldn't wait any longer. She stared at each of us until her eyes landed on mine and stayed, "Daphne.." She mutters my name with a smile. "Hmm?" I looked at her, waiting for what she would say."Daphne.. You know that I like you, right?" Okay. What is she talking about? Where is this going? I look straight into her eyes without any emotion and wait for whatever she has to say. "I already
ALMOST a week had gone by without Cara and I talking. I know she peeks at me in my room whenever she gets home, but I always pretend to be asleep. I can lock my door, but I can't figure out why I don't do it. Every night, it takes me until dawn to watch k dramas. I do that purposefully so I would wake up late and get the alibi not to join Cara for breakfast.Sometimes, Eroz, Zammy, and I hung out together. Because that was the only chance for Craig and Eroz to meet, as the days passed, the inexplicable feeling I had for Cara was overwhelming, and I couldn't even think about Craig anymore.Maybe I've moved on from Craig somehow, and I can say that we're friends now than we used to be, just acquaintances and connected under the circumstances of being married. We seem closer than him to his sister. Cara is always out, and I don't even bother to ask or to know anymore. "Daphne." I suddenly stopped going down the stairs. I thought she had already left the house because it was one in the
Cara and I are already in the car when I'm pulling the seatbelt, getting irked 'cause it's stuck.I heard her sigh at the same time she unlocked her seatbelt to lean over me, fixing mine when our eyes met. I directly blinked my eyelids to avoid her mind-numbing stare.My heart rate is becoming abnormal in an instant whenever we're this close. I can smell her signature perfume that hasn't changed yet.Fortunately, she was able to fix the situation, and I was able to breathe easily when she adjusted back to her seat. I anxiously turned my eyes in another direction, calming my still-pounding heart.She began to drive, an indication of relief. Only when the car stopped did my trance return. I was thinking as much during the whole ride. Cara opened the door for me and offered her hand upon arriving, but I just dodged it, stood by myself, and got out of the car. I saw her slight disappointment, but I just swayed it.The colossal building first caught my eye. By the looks of it, it's obvio
WITH THE additional achievement of Cara and Kazzy, we commemorated outside. We ended up at a club that Kazzy also owned. Her family is indeed wealthy and has many various types of enterprises. I found out, too, that Cara didn't spend any cents she and Kazzy had business with, perhaps due to her parent's will again. That's say how Kazzy believes in Cara's capability to the point of trusting everything to Cara, making her the CEO, too. While I was drinking at our table, Cara and Kazzy were having fun on the dance floor. I'm just looking after Cara, but it's like watching my favorite movie in the cinema. Every angle of Cara's body did not escape my keen eyes. She got the moves that could quickly get you hooked. Add to that its perfect body shape. Who would not be attracted to her? "Hello there," a husky voice suddenly grabbed my attention. "Can I join you?" Without permitting him, he sat next to me with audacity. I tried to stand and ignore him, but before I could do that,
[CARA WHITE POV]What occurred tonight has again given me chaos and changed my mind drastically. I was unsettled by Daphne's horrible experience, swallowing me up by my insecurities, and I was more dominant in my heart, saying I didn't deserve her. We are both women, so how can I protect her like a man can do? I saw how she hugged Craig. Like an earworm, a catchy song or tune that runs continually through a person's mind, what Daphne said that she was still in love with Craig kept hunting me like hell. ...The reason why she didn't let Zammy court her. What should I do? Where should I stand? What is the right thing to do? What first step should I take? It was a mistake! Everything is wrong. I should let Daphne go where she belongs, and that was not me. I just laughed remarkably when I suddenly went back, mesmerizing old stuff. To begin with, when Daphne and I met, her green orbs were the foremost that got me. The first time she cried in front of me, I felt deeply obligated not
"Cara!" My deep thoughts brushed off in an instant when Craig appeared. "Daphne is looking for you. Where have you been?" C'mon! Is she really looking for me? If you are already by her side? Mentally, I said. Isn't she with the person she's really looking for, Craig, my twin brother? "Cara, are you even listening? It seems like Daphne can't live without you by her side, so go." I just followed. If only Craig knew what he was talking about. He's the one Daphne can't live without, not me. I shrugged off whatever was on my mind earlier and went back to Daphne. "Cara!" Hearing her voice calling my name the moment I opened the door was enough to lessen whatever bothered me. I saw her eating pizza with Zammy. There was a pang of discomfort in my heart as I thought of something again. Just a while ago, she was not hungry, yet now enjoying the pizza brought by Zammy. Who else? It's just the two of them. "Come.. Have some. You didn't eat anything yet, Cara." I just followed her and sa
