Third Persons Narrative;

Alex had enough to drink after getting back home from Damon's place and was a wasted mess. Luckily, her best friend Sia, dropped by to visit at the right time, saw her friend in that state and stayed the whole day to help her drunk friend feel better.

It's a new day, and Alex has an interview with a fashion house. Sia insisted on dropping Alex as she wanted to be ' part of the moment ', and Alex had no choice but to comply.

Sia is very excited for her best friend. Alex has long wanted to be a renowned fashion designer, and if she can bag the interview with this mega fashion house, working with them will be a huge step leading to her lifelong goal.

"Go get 'em, sis! You can do it! "Sia encourages once Alex comes down from her car.

Alex turns to face her hyper-bestie and laughs. "Thanks, sis. "She replies, and Sia blows a kiss before zooming off.

Sia is an author who's very successful and lives a life of comfort. She's single, open-minded, fun, and is the most reasonable between her and Alex.

Alex walks into the huge building and makes her way to the director's office as directed by the receptionist. She knocks tenderly on the biggest door on the building's isolated 8th floor.

"Come in. "A male voice calls, and she stands waiting. Thinking she heard ' coming ' and not ' come in '.

"Come in! "The voice calls again, and she jumps a bit, but realizes the difference between what was said, and what she heard.

She opens the door and confidently walks in. Her gaze is met by a handsome young man. She watches his eyes dance over her before his face breaks into a smile.

"Have a seat. "The man says, and Alex obeys. He takes out the copy of Alex's application letter before him, and he begins to go through it, after asking some vital questions and taking a look at pictures of some of her works, he smiles and informs her that he will give her a letter that would allow her to join the fresh batch of intakes for the upcoming week, and she would get to design several pieces.

If her work impresses them, they'd retain her, otherwise, they'd let her go with her works.

"However, before I can hand you that letter, there's something you have to do for me. "He says, and Alex's brows crease.

"What is that, sir? "She questions and the man interlocks his fingers on the table and draws nearer to Alex, with a stern expression on his face.

"How badly do you want this job? "He questions and Alex stares a bit in confusion but retains her confidence.

"Very much, I believe. "Alex replies, and the man smiles.

"In that case, you'd do anything to get this job. Right? " He questions further, and Alex takes a second to think.

"I guess so. "She replies, and the man's smile grows bigger. He stands up and moves with confident, majestic strides to Alex.

"Good. "He says from behind her.

"What do I have to do to get the letter? "Alex questions and the man smiles.

"It's pretty simple. You scratch my back, and I do yours. "He says, and Alex's brows crease, just then, the man shifts Alex's hair aside, revealing her pretty neck, and some portions of her back. Alex moves a little in fright, and the man's smile grows even bigger.

"What I want from you, is not difficult, you just have to... please me, and I'd get you all you need. " He says before placing a wet kiss on Alex's back.

Alex is in a cooperate, but sexy forest green dress, and has her brown hair fallen over her shoulders in wavy curls.

Alex jumps to her feet in alarm. Perplexed by the man's audacity.

"Have you lost it!? "She screams at him, and he smiles.

"Listen, I'm the only one in this building who can help you secure a job here.

All you have to do is take off your dress... I can even help you with that.

I know how badly you want this job, I mean no fashion designer wouldn't want to work here. So, drop the act, and let's get to business.

Don't worry, I'd make you happy. "He replies, and Alex's eyes grow wide like she has just seen something out of a horror movie.

"Is this a joke? "She questions in annoyance.

"Oh, no honey. This is as real as it gets. "The mannerless male replies and Alex glares at him in disgust.

The man moves toward Alex attempting to wrap her in a hug, and she pushes him away cruelly.

"Fuck your job! "She screams at him, and she proceeded toward the door.

"If you leave now, don't ever come back. "The male warns, and Alex turns back to look at him. She eyes him in disgust and shakes her head in pity for him.

Just as she gets to the door, she makes to open it, and he grabs her arm.

"Are you seriously leaving? Alex, you want this job! "He says to her.

" Let go of me! "Alex yells in irritation, but he doesn't let go.

" Not a chance. "The man replies. Intoxicated by Alex's perfection.

With reflexes unexpected, Alex turns around and gives him a heavy kick between his legs. He crunches over in pain and uses both hands to grab his throbbing pen*s. He looks up at Alex, and she throws a blinding slap across his face.

He falls to the ground, and she spits at him to further display her disgust for him.

Then she proceeds to the elevator in a bid to leave the building.

She most definitely is not getting this job anytime soon.

Guess all pretty ladies aren't Barbie dolls. Some are badasses like Alexis, who can stand firm against what they dislike.

  • Love Again   66 -Love Again

    Alex's POV;Love... It's a very funny thing. It take you and redefines you. It changes most if your believes and gives you a new view of life. It teaches you that you don't always have to do everything on your own, and it so teaches you that forgiveness is one of the very important wheels that keeps life going. If there's no love, a lot of us would feel incomplete and failed. Love hurts sometimes, and sometimes it heals. In the last few months, I've grown to learn that love indeed isn't a bed of roses.There are ups, downs, sad times, happy times, good times and definitely the hurting times. But there's so much joy when there's love around. Love that makes you feel whole and complete.Love that heals you in ways you'd never imagined. To love you need to let most of yourself go, and trust completely. I'm currently enjoying my life with Damon, and it's amazing.I'm seven months pregnant now, and we're currently at the hospital, waiting outside Amanda's wars. She's in labor, and Max ha

It's been a while since we last hung out, and she called me over telling me that we needed to talk.I low-key think I know what the bottom line for this meeting is, and honestly, I'm not sure I'm ready. I mean... Which best friend won't be mad that her friend has been keeping a huge secret from her, for years?"When were you planning on telling me, Sia? "Alex questions as I take my cup of lemonade to my mouth, and I gulp.I gently drop the cup back on the table before looking up at her, and she gives me a look."Sia, we attended college together, we've been through so much together, even when Amos came back, you were the one who kept pointing out that you think he likes me and that if I feel he's the one for me, I shouldn't fight it.Why were you doing that? Why didn't you just come open to me? "She questions and I shut my eyes."You didn't even give anyone a chance to suspect. How could you do that?? "She conti

  • Love Again   64 - Forgiveness

    Ava's POV;I am sitting in a vehicle, with my mom, on our way to my physiologist. I'm not mad, I just need therapy.

She really is a different type of woman. "Mia states as I feel her sit beside me, and I open my eyes."Yeah... "I reply dryly."If it were me or any other woman in her shoes, I'd be wishing the worst for you. Not coming to apologize... "She states, and I shut my eyes again."What are we going to do now? "She questions and I keep my eyes shut. I don't know what we'd do now. I've lost my job, and my reputation.

  • Love Again   62 - I'm Sorry

  • Love Again   61 - Who Is He?

    Audrey's POV;I suddenly jolt out of my sleep, when a sound wakes me. It sounded like a door opening. I've not been able to sleep deeply tonight. Moses came over here to spend the night, as he has an interview at an office not too far from my house, tomorrow morning, and his house is quite far. If he spends the night in his house, he'd be late for the interview, and might even lose the job. So, he asked for my help, and I gave it. He agreed to sleep in the living room as there are only two rooms in this house. One for me, and the other for Angela, and there's no way I'd sleep in the same room as him. At least not now. I don't trust him enough, and as much as I want to, I haven't fully accepted him back. I need to know what he's truly here for. He says he wants to make up for his mistakes, but I'm only human. You can't expect me to trust him after all these years. There are so many different possibilities for his reappearance. Possibilities that send shivers down my spine and a s
