Three days before the Virmich party, Stella came together with the girls again to buy their selves a dress. She was about to reject the invitation but suddenly Jennie backed out and so she decided to go. Plus, she wanted something hot for that party. Something sexy but elegant and not so revealing.
Like the previous one, they took long in that store. And when they finished it was already noon. So, Verna told them they should just eat out. And they went to a quite ordinary restaurant.
Just as they were having their lunch, one new customer came in and suddenly Marie yelled something. Annie was fast to react, covering herself with the menu while Marie squeals. Verna was her usual don’t give a fuck state while Trixie and Stella wonders.
“It’s Annie’s crush, Luis!” Marie exclaimed.
To take a better glimpse at the dude, Stella leaned backwards and
In an old apartment, Amunie was rushing down the rusty staircase, hoping that her mother won’t be able to catch her. When she was out of the compound she immediately raised her hand to get a taxi and once she’s inside, she told the driver to speed away. She was catching her breath, a hand on her chest.She doesn’t have any money with her and all she could think of was to go and borrow from Trixie. There was nothing in her mind but escape the beating her mom was giving her. And she told the driver to the Castigado.The guards recognizes Amunie but the problem is that Trixie wasn’t home. Now, she feels nervous about paying the taxi. How will she pay?“May I ask if Jenkins is at the mansion right now?” she asked the guard.“Hold on a moment, ma’am.” The guard holding the telephone tended the call. It took him at least two minutes to get back to her. “Yes, the young master is at home. Would you like
Jason was hanging out with Marga in their building when he received a call from Andrea. He had no intention of talking to her so he rejected the call. He wasn’t able to return it to his pocket when it started vibrating again with the same annoying caller ID.“Will you excuse me for a moment, Marga?” he asked the kid.“Sure!” she giggles. Before moving away, he patted her head, smiling.At a fair distance, he swiped his phone screen to answer. Now, what does this bitch have to say to him.“Yeah?” he answered lazily.“I am announcing tomorrow at the party something good,” she says.“Something good? What does that have to do with me?”“Simply because it’s you.” Then she lets out an evil laugh. “I’ll be declaring to every one that I am going after you now.”Jason didn’t quite get what Andrea was talking about. What will this dumb bitch get for declaring that she’s going after him now?“Are you thinking straight?” He couldn’t help but get mad. “How’s that going to help you get back with Ch
Around six in the evening, the ladies in the mansion finally finished their preparations for the Virmich party. Then at six thirty, they all head out. The girls in a limo except for Stella and Jason together with Jenkins in another car. Since Stella and Charles are a couple, they went with their own car as well.While they were on their way to the Virmich’s place, Charles kept kissing Stella’s hand that he was holding. It was something that made her giggled a lot.“Why do you keep doing that?” she asked in a cheery tone.“Nothing. I just want to mark your hand so when guests tries to greet you and kiss your hand, they’ll be kissing me and not you.”“What?” Stella could not help but burst out laughing at Charles. “Sometimes I don’t know if you’re a billionaire or a comedian!”“Well, I can be both for you.”“Aye,” Stella looks out the window, her smile remaining. “I wonder what it’s like at their party.”“Have I said that you look stunningly gorgeous tonight?” Charles’ question that mad
Stella with wide eyes stared at Charles, asking him what the heck was that announcement all about. Is this why Andrea wanted her to be here? To say that?“Baby, listen, I swear to you. I don’t have any idea--”In her anger, she hold her hand up to interrupt him. He was trying to touch her but she shoved his hand away. Stella could feel everyone’s eyes at her.There were two options for her. One was to leave this absurdness with gaining shame on her and the other was to bring shame to Andrea but she needs courage. It would be a waste for dress and her preparations if she just leaves.“Baby, please listen to me,” Charles was trying to console her but she pierced his eyes at him, stopping him from where he is.“No, Charles! You listen to what I am about to fucking say!” she grunted.With her head held high, Stella took a few steps, swaying her hips confidently and that red lips of hers curved into
With what Andrea had done, the rest of the Castigado decided to leave the party. It wasn’t in a rude way, they parted with the Virmich’s approval. Now the girls were leaving the party disappointed that they could not flex their dresses well enough. It’s mostly Jennie who is whining and ranting.“Why the hell would Andrea embarrass herself like that?” Jennie asked, irritated at the fact that they have to go home. “And did we really heard it right? Stella is pregnant?”“You heard it right, Jennie. Now, shut up. You’re too noisy!” Verna was mad. It’s not because they are being sent home or the fact that Stella was pregnant, she’s mad because Andrea forced it out on Stella to announce it to everyone.Verna saw how Jason and Charles’ world turned but she focused on Jason and he was hellish. That reaction is a devil’s reaction when there’s something he wants and he can’t have.“Jason looked really terrifying earlier,” Marie suddenly uttered catching Verna’s attention. “I have never seen him
Jenkins was dropped off by Jason at the gate and he needed to walk for a half a kilometer to get to the mansion. Yeah, if only he was allowed to drive a car, he would be driving already. Now, he is stuck with walking because Jason was mad because of his idiotic ways.He was really forward to have a dance with Amunie but it seems like he has to wait for a while. She looks divine when he saw her descend the stairs with her hair down and tiny braids with butterfly clips like he requested. He wanted to keep holding on her hand.“Andrea had to ruin my night,” he twitched his mouth to the side. “I should get back at her when the time comes.I could have had her first dance.”When Jenkins was near the mansion, he saw a figure on the stairs and as he was getting closer, he realized it was Amunie. She was still wearing her dress, sitting on the dirty stair. What is she doing? He asked.As soon as Amunie saw him, she smiled sweetly, quickly standing up and brushing the dirt of her dress. She exc
In the morning, Stella had so much visitor coming in their room. First she had three sweeties coming in the room and giving her breakfast. While she was at it, the elderly came, Felius and Crolletta giving her some advises and offering her a lot of things. After them was Charles’ parents and the list went on.“You see?” Charles chuckled, crawling back to bed with her. “They don’t blame you for anything. In fact they are all happy that there’s a baby here soon. I am the most happy person in the whole world since last night.”“But aren’t they taking care of me too much?” she asked. “I mean I like it but they’re doing too much. I don’t have a baby bump yet!”“Oh let them be, baby! They’re just excited like I am!” Charles suddenly put his head on her stomach. “I hope he or she can hear me. I hope my child knows we are all happy.”Stella then softly chuckle at how Charles is acting right now. To see him like this brings tears to her eyes. Oh it feels like a dream, something too good to be
That evening, Stella visited the garden and sat by a small parapet. After what happened to her and Jason earlier her head has been clouding up. Jason just confessed to her that he liked her and regretted ever setting up Charles. That’s why he was looking all down lately.Stella breathes in deeply and blows it out, looking up at the stars. Everything is okay and now it gets complicated. Now that she knows how Jason feels it would be more awkward for them meeting together or even just being in the same room.“Should I just go home for now?” she asked herself.Just a moment after, Stella hears the garden gate creaked and she turned to see who was coming. It surprised her to see Jenkins with a smile.“What are you doing here, young man?” she asked with a smile lingering in her mouth.“Oh, I saw you come here a while ago so I thought I should join you,” Jenkins answered, making his way to Stella. “Mind if I sit down beside you?”“No, not at all! Please, do accompany me.”And so Jenkins sat
