After I watch Lucas checked in the nearest hotel, I drive myself home as the clock strikes at 2 o’clock in the morning.

I know that my intention was to celebrate in that bar, but instead, it ended up being the last straw that I’ve given myself to finally move on.

If I still can’t get over him after a few weeks or months, I’ll willingly label him as the greatest shame of my life.

Oh well. As if I’m not yet immune by scrutiny. My life is filled with it. Whether from people I don’t know, or people that I call ‘family’.

As I turn on the lights, I dramatically fall on my knees and shriek as loud as I could.

“Ah!!!” My heart beating so fast while looking at the person comfortably sitting on the couch.

“Jesus Christ!” He rants; his eyes squinting because of the bright lights that I’ve just turned on.

“WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?!” I loudly question his existence in my living room.

How did he get inside?

“Calm down, will you?” He smirks; expression clearly influenced by alcohol that he p

  • Lucky Yet So Unlucky In Love    Chapter 40 (Part 1)

    With every part of me being offended and mad, I climb inside my car as I immediately start the engine to leave this place.A billion dollars? My father wants me to help Keanu by lending him a billion dollars?Is he okay? A billion dollars is so much to ask for. If that's the case, I should be a business partner, rather than a generous cousin who's going to help him build his company, but won't be given credit.Hell, I'm not credit hungry. But do they actually think a simple ‘thank you’ would convince me that they're grateful for my supposed act of generosity?Oh, I can bet my whole life for I'm certain that they're just going to use me for my money. And they're asking it specifically from me because they know that I can't do anything about it if it's my father's command.They still see me as a weakling. A woman under the authority of a man; just because I don't want to be disowned and lose control of everything that I worked hard for.They know that within one snap of my father's fing

    After I left the building, I went to my store to mingle with customers for some time. I have to show up more often now since I want to inform everyone about my brand expansion in Asia. I just want them to spread the word for me, and encourage other people to show their support even just on social media.It’s already a huge help, and I’m not even paying them any amount of money.“I’m on my way. It’ll only be a couple of minutes.” I say to my father over the phone.He demanded me to go to his mansion without telling me the reason why. I am currently driving while wishing in my head that I won’t be stuck in traffic.My father abruptly ends the phone call without a single last word uttered.What is going on with my old man? I’m not used to this version of him.He’s cold, but he’s not this cold before.“Fuck,” I cuss to myself when the car in front me stops because of the red light ahead.“It’s not even rush hour yet, but this is already happening.” I sigh; trying to calm myself.Should I

    “Are you listening?”The moment that I hear Kevin’s voice, I am instantly pulled out of my reverie as I act being attentive to the meeting happening right now.It's about my jewelry brand's expansion in Asia.“Yeah, of course. I'm just trying to think of other possible factors.” I smile to hide the lie.I wasn't listening at all, but he seems to believe me when he nods with a small smile.I hope you're listening, Kevin. Because after this, I'm going to need you to retell me the details 'cause I'm not listening at all.My mind is too occupied with something else, and I know that I should've just rescheduled the meeting, but I'm overly excited about our launch next week.Finally! It took us 6 months of hard work to attempt entering the business borders of Asia. It was a tough patch, but I was persistent to push through. I have a strong good feeling about this and I just can't ignore that. It's going to be good for my brand and for my name.I've been praying for this to happen, and now,

    “Showtime, Ms. Aglauros.”As I prepare myself to grace the runway, I take a deep breath to relax.Anything could go wrong. It's been a while since I walked the runway for a brand—especially a lingerie brand.“3, 2, 1...” I brush off the anxiety and then plaster a sweet yet seductive smile.I start to execute my signature catwalk strut with my feet moving according to the song playing.It's Gimme More by Britney Spears. An all-time favorite by many.The crowd goes wild at the sight of me. Cameras flashing left and right; fans raising their placards with my face on it. I wave at the camera before blowing it a kiss when I reach the end of the runway.The lacy lingerie I'm wearing right now is one of the sets I wore when I did the photoshoot weeks ago. The photoshoot went very well, and my photos boosted the sales of the magazine where my photos were featured. The brand couldn't resist but had me wear the lingerie that stood out the most in the runway because of the photoshoot.And I could

    When I finally got home, I had to convince myself that this night is not only revolving around that awful family dinner.I can do something to change the mood that I'm in right now.Hell, I would even do a photoshoot even if it's already past eleven.Wait... that's it! Photoshoot.Goddamn, I forgot that my manager informed me about a photoshoot today.That could lift me up in an instant. I miss being in a set.With that in mind, I quickly forgot about the family dinner as I fumbled for my phone in my purse.I try to turn it on, but it's unresponsive.“Fuck, it's dead.” I murmur to myself.I walk inside my bedroom to charge my phone and use it while it's still plugged on.When it finally lit up, I wasted no second and dialed my manager’s phone number.“Hey, I know it's late—”“Where were you, darling? I have been calling you since eight.”I couldn't tell if my manager is mad at me or not. But that's not my concern right now.“It doesn't matter. Of course, we're still waiting for you! E

    As I play with my food on the plate, I tell myself that all of this will be over any minute now.Keanu and his father are talking about how peaceful life was in Germany. And Keanu was the one who spent years in Germany, yet Uncle Naveen is the one that has a lot to share with the family.He claims that his son was never a failure like how the public had captured him to be, when he vanished after the cheating allegations spread like wildfire.Among us, Keanu was the only Aglauros in our generation that had married and got divorced after it was proven that he was cheating on his wife with a stripper in Vegas.Now, if it happened to any of us, I know how it'll excite Uncle Naveen to call us a disgrace in every family dinner.Especially if it happened to me.“Keanu certainly missed being here with us. Germany wasn't much of a challenge for him.”I bite my lip to contain my laughter. Wasn't much of a challenge? Before he left he was met with great challenges, yet what did he do? He abandon
