ROSITA LAUREN’S POV“What is wrong?” The master asked on my side because I was probably zoning out the moment I lost grip on my ketchup.“A-Ah, it was nothing, master,” I breathed, trying to avoid his gaze, but I couldn't because he was right next to me.I was only glad that he didn’t say anything as he continued munching on his meal, which made me sigh in relief.I’m not sure if I was hallucinating about what happened last night, but it felt real…is the master pretending that nothing happened?The red mark on my neck…was it a hickey from what had happened then…why does he look like he was pretending that he doesn’t know anything? I shook my head because of my confusion.After I have finished my meal, I decided to roam around the beach, trying to look for Ms. Rally because I haven’t seen her since last night.“Rosita!” I heard a loud voice calling me and even if I didn’t turn around, I already knew who it was while shaking my head.“And where have you been?” I raised my eyebrows with
Gray wasn’t content with the one punch as he did it once again, making me lose the air inside of my body.I could feel my whole senses leave me as I didn’t realize that I muttered the word ‘master’ when someone wrapped their hands around my waist.My whole senses were relieved because of that someone’s warmth, it was as if they knew who he was.“What did you do to her?” I heard the master solemnly ask with my eyes closed. Even if I’m not seeing anything I know that he was furious.“M-Mr. Montefalco?!” They panicked as they stepped away from the water, “S-She was declining to come with us!” “And because of that, you had to hurt her?” Master sounded like he had lost his cool, which forced me to slowly open my eyes.He was gritting his teeth as I managed to stand up on my own before holding out to his hands, “I-I’m alright, master,” I bit my lower lip.I was surprised when he shoved me away as he started giving those two some lessons, beating them up to death.“She has the right to say
ROSITA LAUREN’S POV“Alright, I got the papers ready and the possible documents the master might need,” I mumbled to myself before closing that suitcase.I finished taking a bath a while ago and was dressed in my pajamas. I hope the master won’t mind it though.Talking about business inside his room doesn’t mean I have to dress like one, “All that is left to do is wait for him to review things, and sign them,”After carrying the suitcase, I went out of my room feeling the nervousness crawling up to my sleeves.I know that I was excited a while ago, but remembering that I'll be alone with him was making me anxious.Shaking my head, I tried to calm myself down before knocking on his door, “Master, are you there?” “Come in,” He muttered in a deep, low voice, so I gulped before turning the doorknob to the side and pushing the door wide open.The place reeked with the smell of freshly baked popcorn. The master probably cooked one until I invited myself to the living room.My eyes widened
ROSITA LAUREN’S POV“I don’t have to, but all I know is that you're kind, that’s what all that matters,” Roger claimed with a smile plastered on his lips.“I’m sorry, but I can’t be with you,” I told him straight to the point, which made his eyes widen in disbelief. It was like that was the first time he was rejected.“Why? Is it because of the man that you’re with? He’s just rich and doesn’t care a thing about you,” He firmly said.My eyes widened because I felt like something drastically changed, “He’s my boss, Roger, he can deal with me whatever he wants,” “As if I’d believed that! Do you see the way he looks at you? He has intentions!” Roger furiously claimed.This conversation was going nowhere, so I took my phone from him before sighing deeply because I was disappointed.“I-I thought we would be friends, but I think that is not what’s on the plate now,” I mumbled sadly.“We should head back, master will probably be awake and will start looking for me,” I claimed before standing
ROSITA LAUREN’S POV I don’t know why the master and I came to this. He invited me inside to have a drink and stay on the terrace where we could watch the view before us. We were silent and were comfortable with each other’s presence while standing inches away from each other. The breeze of the winds was on my hair as I closed my eyes, it gives me this refreshing feeling that the city couldn’t give. And I wanted to clear my head because I was thinking about strange stuff that I wasn’t supposed to be thinking about, especially about the statements that my master keeps on telling me. It’s making me blush and think about things that I’m sure weren't his intentions, but how could I control myself when he speaks that way? “Master, thank you for saving me a while ago again, if you didn’t come, I don’t know what will happen to me,” I sincerely told him while drinking that sparkling wine. “And I have this feeling that you brought me here because you wanted me to relax and forget about wh
ROSITA LAUREN’S POVI didn’t realize that we had arrived back in Pearl City when the master woke me up for the landing of the airplane.The bags were my responsibility now so while everyone was preoccupied with businesses of their own, I was counting mine and his bag.“Okay, I think everything is here now we just have to load this to the…Hey, Rosita!” I flinched when someone popped and screamed to my side.“J-Judeo! You scared me!” I lightly hit his shoulders for what he did, making him laugh while shaking his head.“I told you not to do that or you’ll give me a heart attack!” I complained while clutching my chest, but he only grabbed the bags from me.The master was nowhere around because he was too preoccupied with speaking to his people before they left his private airplane.“Oh, did you have a fun time?” Judeo asked, capturing my attention as I nodded before sighing deeply.“That sigh, did something happen while I was away there?” He curiously asked so I started narrating to him w
ROSITA LAUREN’S POV Nurse Mark Villaflor was very attentive to my needs. He’s one of the kindest nurses that I’ve met and I’m grateful for him. “And here are your extra medicines, you feel better now, right?” Mark genuinely smiled, which made me nod. “The pain subsided, I hope it won’t come back again because I badly need to work,” I told him. “I can see that you seem to be a workaholic, take your time, it’s still important that you’re in good health,” He told me, so I only sighed before nodding. “Thank you, I’ll go back to my post just in case someone would need me there,” I casually told him before waving my hands goodbye. I hid the medicines in the pocket of my skirt, panicking when I saw that master was there, tapping his feet impatiently. “M-Master? Were you waiting here for that long?” I solemnly asked. He only nodded before pointing at the time. “I told you that we have a meeting later on about the results of the footage from the cameras, where have you been?” He firmly
ROSITA LAUREN’S POVEven though the ambiance of the place puts me at ease, the tension at the table was making me uncomfortable.The master was staring at me intently, which is why I’m trying so hard to avoid them. Aside from that, Judeo and Hayleigh have this war forming on their table.“Why do you keep on disagreeing with me?” Hayleigh clenched his fists, “You were always attentive to my requests back then!” “That is because of your attitude! It sucks just like your soul!” Judeo raised his tone, making my eyes widen.I didn’t know that he was capable of saying those words to a lady. He must really hate her because he never acted that way before until she arrived here.“Why aren’t you choosing your meal?” I flinched when I heard the master's voice, he was looking at me intently.“A-Ah, um, I will pay for it this time, master,” I told him, but he only glared at me, making me panic on the inside.‘Did I do something wrong? Why is he glaring at me like that?’ I wondered while biting my
