Mag-log inBonnie's POV I glanced around in desperation for where to hide from Mich when I suddenly saw a door leading to the restroom. So quickly, I grabbed my bag and hurried to the one marked for the female.I did my thing and stayed there for a while, making sure to adjust my shades, pulling my cap as low as possible.When I returned, I found Mich sitting at a table, next to the photographers. He had taken off his shades already and was laughing with one of the guys in the team. He looked particularly handsome today. Was it because of his fresh haircut? Or clothes? Or because he decided to smile?Indeed, it was an ad shoot just as I had thought. His presence had obviously attracted more people inside, and within a short moment, there was a queue outside.The big guy in a red shirt who was supposed to hand me a uniform beckoned on me, and I followed him to the kitchen entrance.“Hey, Bonnie. Could you help us out with something? The lady we invited to film this with Mr. Monte had an emergenc
Bonnie's POV I glanced around the room in wonder. There were two simple metal bunk beds now, one in each corner of the room. Before this, we only had two big mattresses lying flat on the floor. Where did they even get these sturdy frames and fresh, clean sheets? The walls looked great with a fresh coat of pink paint. On the wall facing the balcony, someone had put up beautiful, bright wallpaper that made the whole space feel cheerful. My desk and Shirley’s desk were completely clean and organized. Right next to them, our tiny cooking corner looked much neater. We didn't have a real kitchen. “Wow. This is a total transformation," I mused. I dropped my bags by my desk and peeked into the bathroom. It was scrubbed clean, but it was still the same old, worn-out bathroom with ancient fixtures. They couldn't fix its bad condition, but at least it was spotless compared to its previous awful condition. Still, our little home looked so much better and more presentable. I smiled with r
Bonnie's POV I thought of calling my roommates to ask about Dean, but decided against it. I had a better idea. I rang Shirley.“Bonnie! Where have you been? I've missed you so much! I can't believe your brother came and you decided to sleep out to avoid us. Was his first night so bad?" I smiled at her whining. Quite typical of her. “No, dear. I had external work at the office so I guess he doesn't want to return yet till I'm back. Or did he come around?" “Yeah. He actually came to pick a few things earlier this morning. Though he looked kinda worried. I asked if everything was okay and he said his phone was stolen.”I was relieved to hear that he was fine. But the phone part got me on my nerves again. “Really? He lost his phone?" "I was going to call you, but he asked me not to bother. Instead he collected your number on a piece of paper and also dropped one for me to give you, if ever you're trying to reach him.”Oh, dear. Shirley was such an angel. "Thank you so much. Can you ca
Indeed, Nadine was on a call just as I had assumed. I glanced around sharply for a hiding place, but there was barely any. So, I quietly walked on my toes to the other end of the wall as her voice drew closer.“You wouldn't believe it. We are in my grandma's place. My mum borrowed from her kid brother to make it here. I and Nelson may most likely stay with him for a period of time, while she looks after Lin and helps my dad settle the debts.” She paused for a long moment. A snort. A sigh. Then broke off into laughter."No, you don't know my uncle. I can't even stand him. He doesn't respect my mum and his elder brothers. Though my mum says it wouldn't affect his relationship with us, but I'm not gonna believe that crap. Worse still, he has this stupid girlfriend playing babysitter or babysitter playing girlfriend, who always sticks around him like expired glue. I don't know what to think of her.”I thought my knees were going to buckle under me, and I would wet my pants. I tried to bre
Bonnie's POV I found a cute bunny, about the size of a throw pillow at the foot of the bed, with a funny name tag. Little Mich.I held it up to the light and chuckled. Little Mich indeed. It reminded me of the one I saw on his bed back in Beverly. I couldn't imagine a hard guy like him dealing with plushies. Awwwn. Cute, huh?I found the name more cute, so I took a photo of it for keepsake. I was admiring the photo when I heard a brief tap at the window.Startled, I dropped the bunny on the bed and hurried to the window, peeking from the curtain first. It was Kieran, looking like a scared thief. I shoved the curtain aside so he could see me.“Is Carolyn and her kids in there?" He whispered.Carolyn and her kids? I didn't know the woman's name."If you mean Nadine, Nelson and…” I couldn't remember the name of the youngest. "...the rest of them. Yeah.”"Shit.”"Who's she? Your aunt? Sister?” I stole the opportunity."Sister. I'm not sure I wanna meet them yet. I'm too drained right now
Bonnie's POVI was so relieved that I was finally able to spill my mind to Mich. At least, he would finally stop having fresh ideas. I just couldn't wrap everything he did around my head. Did he like me? I noticed the way he reacted fiercely in the mall when Ruki hit me, and the way he stared at me when he thought I wasn't watching. He even went ahead to take a video of me and Crystal in the park, and all night since he returned from the police station, he has been acting funny and making funny moves. He has made several attempts to make out with me as well.Even now we were trying to eat this fruit salad, he kept feeding his eyes on me, rather than feeding his stomach with the food.“Why do you want us to eat together?" I was forced to ask him.“Nothing special. Just need company." “And you needed company on the bed too?" He dropped his cutlery this time and stared at me. He looked like he was going to say something, but hesitated. “I'm full. Enjoy." he said flatly, rising.What
So what? Was he a god or a king that couldn't be yelled at? “You have no right to call me names or judge me!" He nodded, clicking his tongue. “Minus two dollars. You have no right to call me Mich." We held each other's gaze as usual. “So get back to work or get out." Was he really going to pay m
The gown and heels were gone when I finally awoke to my blaring alarm by 6am. Next to me was Shirley, and on the other bed were Mirabel and Arella. I remembered Shirley's warning for me not to leave it there. No doubt Mirabel and Arella must have taken it. But then, it wasn't impossible for the
Kwinnie?Mich’s ex-girlfriend from high school? And why was she staring at me?She was on heavy makeup, and in a glittery strapless mini gown that clung tightly to her skin, outlining her curves. She was still as pretty as I recall, no doubt. She approached me, looking worried.“Please, can you he
"Bonita Helmes. You're up next." I blew air into my cheeks when I heard my name. This was my tenth interview in two weeks. Yuup. One interview per day. This time, unlike other interviews, it was being conducted by the CEO himself, because it was for the position of a personal assistant.A posit
