Chapter 20
Shit! shit! Shit! I realized that I didn't live alone anymore only When Gray dropped me at my apartment. How irresponsible of me to completely forget about my dear brother!? I only hope he didn't notice, which is wishful thinking. Of Course, He would notice!Slowly, I tiptoe inside my apartment, shutting the door. When I turned back, I screamed in horror seeing Ruth and Jonathan standing in the living room with arms folded in front of their chest. Ruth smiled evilly but Jonathan looked angry and his glare made me want to run out of my place. Anywhere that wasn't within his reach.“WHERE…THE …FUCK …HAVE…YOU…BEEN!?” Okay, I take back my words. He's in his maniac mode. The only time he has ever been this angry is when our old neighbor stole his puppy. The image of my old neighbor's bloody nose flashed in my head at that moment. “Get in here!” He roared at me. It didn't take seconds for me to scramble towards him.“I am soBab terkait

Chapter 21It happened before I could even react, Gray was beside us in a flash. I don't know how things escalated that quick but One second, Zachary was kneeling beside me, and the next Second, he was being yanked up by Gray and they were in each other's faces. I jumped in shock and went instantly towards Zachary’s side trying to pull them apart which made Grey's seem even madder. “Oh My God. What are you guys doing? Gray! Let him go.” I shouted, scared that Zachary will get a punch without deserving it. “She’s not yours to touch,” Gray growled in Zachary’s face. I flinched at the anger in his voice. With much reluctance, Gray lets go of Zachary Collar but the latter is not having it. He growled and looked in my direction. “Meredith is not yours either. She and I went way back. It's not your business to act like the way you did.” It's obvious that Zachary was caught off guard with the way Gray reacted considering

Chapter 22“Daddy Louis!” It was Noah who broke out of his confusion and ran towards his father. Jenna wasn't smiling anymore. Instead, she stared at her son, seemingly confused at his sudden appearance. I watched Gray's twin pick his son up and laugh when Noah said something in his ears. It made me wonder how Noah called both Gray his dad and Louis ‘Daddy Louis’ “Louis. What are you doing here?” Jenna took a step towards the father-son pair. Her tone slightly changes with her questions. It was so different from how she speaks with Gray and that intrigued me. Maybe it was because Gray had warned me that his brother was dangerous. The desire to find out about this man shocked me to the core. “Hi Mom,” Jenna took the whole introduction thingy to a whole level. She cleared her throat, “Oh right. This is Meredith, Louis.” At the mention of my name, his eyes shine with interest. He looks so kind and giddy, although he has the same face as his brother, I came to n

Chapter 1“Meredith...We should break up” It was Zachary who uttered those words with no remorse or a hint of guilt to accompany his horrible five words. Meanwhile Meredith couldn't quite believe if the words she heard were a nightmare or a reality; if she were to blink, the water works wouldn't be far away but she had to maintain her dignity but she was finding it hard to do so.“Why? Did I do something wrong? Can’t we just try to talk it out?” Her miserable pleas were pitiful even to her own ears, She was having a hard time breathing and she knew Zachary wasn't the kind of person to fool around, throwing the word 'breakup' carelessly.“Meredith...No… it's not working out for us. Baby,listen We are just so different,I’m always

Chapter 2The ride back to her place is a fuzzy, blurry ride with the undeniably gorgeous man sitting next to her in the tight space of the cab backseat. Recalling that she doesn't know his name, she looked up into the face of her broody, strange companion.“I’m Meredith. What's your name?” At this rate,she doesn't want to beat around the bush,instead act her true self since it is unlikely for them to meet again after tonight.”Gray” Is all he muttered and continued to stare out of the window.“Gray” she tasted the name on her lips and soon the cab stopped at the front of her apartment. They got off the cab and Gray paid off without a word.

How could you wake up late today!?” Meredith cursed annoyingly under her breath,running across the street on her cheap four Inch heels,sweat trickling down her face in the heat of a summer morning.It was decided last night that Ruth had to drop her at the office partly because she doesn't want her ex-boyfriend to see her sweaty and red after a year on her first day of work.

Chapter 4After the long hours of work and a lot of thinking, Meredith Bloom looked up at the sky and released a curse when the first drop of water latched onto her skin. There is no way she would be walking into the rain and risked getting soaked from the pouring. So much has happened in a day and she wasn't sure if she could have another shock. Lord knows her poor heart couldn't handle it.She opted to wait for the rain to stop instead of running around like a madwoman. She stood by the front of the building finding no harm in it.A few minutes passed but the sky didn't seem to stop crying, It's almost close to four that got her worried because she would be home late if she continued to wait for the rain to stop pouring. Gearing up her bag on her shoulder, She

Chapter 5Gray's office was as exactly as she had expected: still and completely soundproof,clean and coordinated with expensive sofas and tables sat in the middle of the spacious white office.Perched up on the chair,typing away on his laptop were Gray Westmore who didn't even acknowledge the duo who just walked in.Meredith's stomach churned from the ball of nerves creeping up her soul, but she knew better than to alert him of their presence. She had never met someone as intimidating as the person who sat in front of her. Noah, however, had other plans, he rushed towards Gray with a squeal.Her heart screams internally When Gray looks up; annoyed and angry. She kept her mouth shut, and stood straighter.

Chapter 6A week goes by in blur, Meredith has gotten quite close to some of her co-workers who are equally as friendly and sweet as her. As for Melissa, they never spoke of the incident that went down that afternoon. Either of them pretended to be friendly and acted civil towards each other. And tonight, since it's Friday, the group decided to head down to the bar and get drunk since it's the weekend and they don't have to work for the next two days.Meredith was eager to finish her work since it's been so long that she had gotten drunk and not focused on her work. By the time the clock turned 4, She rushed out of the office as if her Butts were on fire. When she reached home, she took a warm shower, and heated up the pizza in the microwave for dinner. She ate the leftover food along with a coke, her stomach full and sat
