FAZER LOGINThe reason Marissa never broke up with me was because she wanted to keep me around and keep enjoying the pleasure I brought her, while also enjoying the financial perks of being with another man.It was no wonder she never took me along on trips. She already had someone else to take.And when I tried to break up with her, she wouldn't let me. But none of that mattered to me anymore. Because now, I had Ms. Johnston.I set the phone down on the coffee table and looked at Ms. Johnston, my gaze heated. "Ms. Johnston, now that she and I are broken up, how about it? Do you want to see how I compare to those toys of yours?"Her face instantly flushed all the way to her ears. "Charlie, you little rascal. How dare you bring that up?"I chuckled and pushed her down onto the couch.When I woke up the next day, I was already in Ms. Johnston's bedroom."You're definitely better than those toys." After saying that, Ms. Johnston decided to throw all her toys away.I finally understood the c
Ms. Johnston had actually sold the shop very quickly.She used to live upstairs above the store. Now that she had sold it off, I didn't even know where to find her. All I could do was keep calling her, over and over. But no one answered.Regret consumed me. If I had known, I would've come earlier.Ms. Johnston must've felt bad too. That was why she sold the shop and avoided seeing me.I went to a tree across the street from the store and crouched there, feeling like my soul had drifted away. Staring at the shop, my mind kept replaying the image of Ms. Johnston's graceful figure.Just like that, she had disappeared.I even thought about asking Marissa. Maybe she knew something. But there was no way she'd tell me.From dawn to dusk, I stayed there, crouched by the tree, staring blankly across the street. I wasn't even sure what I was waiting for.In the end, the new owner locked up and left. I stepped out from behind the tree, looking at the closed shutters, feeling an indescriba
The completely different curves beneath my palms left me with no desire at all. Especially with Ms. Johnston just close by, I found myself unwilling to do anything with Marissa.I knew it made me a terrible person, but I still pushed her away. "Marissa, I'm really tired."Seeing that I wasn't responding no matter what she did, Marissa finally gave up and turned away to sleep.The next morning, when I woke up, she was sitting by the bed, looking at me with concern. "Charlie, is something wrong? You can tell me. We'll figure it out together."I shook my head, not knowing how to explain. "It's nothing. I'm heading to campus."As soon as I said that, I fled Ms. Johnston's house running away.Back at school, I was riddled with guilt toward Marissa. No matter what, I had wronged her. But I just couldn't help it.For several days, I didn't go see Marissa. Not because I wanted to give her the silent treatment, but because I didn't know how to face her.I didn't go see Ms. Johnston eith
Just as anticipation filled me, my expression suddenly changed. Of all times, Marissa had come back now. And she wasn't alone; her roommates were with her too.I couldn't help but let out a sigh. I had gotten my hopes up for nothing.When Marissa saw me standing at the entrance, she hurried over. "Hey, babe! Thanks for helping Jenna watch the shop. It must've been tiring. Where is she?"Seeing me standing there without responding, Marissa kissed me on the cheek before heading inside with her roommates. When she saw the toppled shelf and mess inside, she frowned. "Jenna, did someone trash the place?"I turned my head just in time to meet Ms. Johnston's awkward gaze. Clearly, she hadn't expected Marissa to come back at this moment either.Ms. Johnston quickly looked away and answered, "There was a fight earlier. They knocked some things over."Marissa immediately called her roommates over to help clean up.An indescribable disappointment built up inside me. Something that had
Before I could go any further, someone suddenly barged in angrily, cursing as she entered. "Jenna Johnston, you slut! My husband got into a fight because of you. You'd better pay for it!"It was a middle-aged woman. When she didn't see Ms. Johnston at the front, she kept shouting as she stormed inside.Luckily, the shelves blocked her view. Otherwise, she would've seen everything just now.Hearing her, Ms. Johnston hurriedly pushed me away, straightened her clothes, and went out.I cursed the woman inwardly for ruining the moment, then followed after Ms. Johnston.The woman lunged forward the moment she saw Ms. Johnston. "It's all your fault, you slut! You've got my man wrapped around your finger, and now he's gotten into trouble because of you. I'll scratch that pretty face of yours up today!"Ms. Johnston froze in place, too startled to move. I quickly pulled her behind me, grabbed the woman's wrist, and shoved her back a couple of steps. "What does that have to do with us? You
I was way too excited. My hands were trembling.With my other hand, I hurried to undo my pants.I could feel that Ms. Johnston's body had already gone weak. Her raised hips began to sway more violently.Suddenly, the sound of a shelf toppling over came from outside."What, you think you're the only one who can buy something? The shop's open for business, and I'm a customer too.""I said no, so no. Jenna is mine. All of you can get lost!""You drunk bastard, you don't even know who you are anymore. I'm not leaving. What are you going to do about it?"It sounded like several customers had started arguing. Then, it turned into a fight, and they even knocked over a shelf in the process.The commotion snapped Ms. Johnston back to her senses. She hurriedly tried to push me away. "Charlie, no. I need to go and check what's happening." If things escalated outside, who knew what might happen? If Ms. Johnston's store got wrecked, it'd be a real problem. As much as I wanted to keep goin
