What do you guys think about Scarlett?
Adriel came back to the house with a sad look on her face. “Angel,” Zeth warmly welcomed Adriel as she entered their house. He placed a kiss on her cheeks, but Adriel remained aloof. He immediately detected that something was wrong. “What’s wrong, angel?” he asked, tucking her hair behind her ears. Adriel looked down at the ground and sighed. “It’s not about me,” she said. “It’s about Aria.” “Do you want to talk about it?” he gently asked. “How about Zenon?” she asked. “Don’t worry, angel. He’s already asleep. Come,” he led her to the couch. “Tell me about it,” he said. Adriel leaned back on the couch and released a heavy breath. “It’s Aria. I don’t know how to comfort her.” “Did something happen to her?” “Yeah,” she said. “She was about to confess her feelings today.” “To Cedric? That’s rough,” he muttered under his breath. Adriel sharply glanced at him. “What’d you say?” Zeth scratched the back of his head. “Nothing. Nothing,” he shook her off. She held tightly onto his
“Are you alright?” Aria asked Adriel, who was currently fuming in her seat.After Kian said those words, he bolted out of the cafe and left the two ladies alone. He knew that his words would bear some consequences, so he opted to leave before that could happen.“First love?” Adriel muttered under her breath. “He told me that I was his first and only love.”Aria stroked Adriel’s back. “You probably are. Kian never said that Scarlett and Zeth got together. It must have been some kind of young infatuation.”Adriel snapped out of her annoyance. “Sorry,” she looked down on her lap. “I’m acting too hot-headed.” She felt bad that she didn’t even realize that Aria was probably hurting more than her.“I should be the one asking you that,” she guiltily said. “Are you okay?”Aria tried her hardest to smile brightly. “Of course,” she said, although her voice shook. “Why wouldn’t I be?”Aria already had a hunch that something was going on between Cedric and Scarlett. However, hearing it from Kian
"No," Aria stubbornly said. "Open the door," she said, trying to get out of the car once more. Cedric sighed. "Aria, please. Just—just let me explain, please. I don't like how awkward we are these days." "There's nothing to explain," Aria muttered under her breath. "It's not like there's something wrong if you have a girlfriend. We're not together anyways," she whispered the last statement, so Cedric wasn't able to hear it. "We're not together," Cedric revealed. "Huh?" Aria lifted her head to look at him, a light of hope sparking in her heart. "We're not together," he repeated. "Scarlett isn't my girlfriend." Aria kept silent. However, she pursed her lips together to hide the smile forming on her face. She hates how she instantly feels happy after hearing that Cedric and Scarlett are really not together. However, she can't help it. She already likes him too much to be able to let go of her feelings. And now, hearing that he is indeed not in a relationship, she feels like s
"Adriel," Zeth tugged on her wrist and captured her into a hug. "Let go," Adriel said, trying to break away from his hold. Zeth shook his head and held on. "No, please. Let me explain before anything else. I don't like fighting with you, Adriel," he sniffed. Adriel froze on her spot and glanced at Zeth with wide eyes. "Are you crying?" He looked up from her shoulder, and Adriel saw how teary and red his eyes are. More tears fell from his eyes, making Adriel's heart melt. She softly bit her lip and hugged Zeth back. "Don't cry," she whispered. "I don't like seeing you cry." With Adriel's comforting words, Zeth could only cry harder. "I can't help it, angel. I thought that I hate interacting with new people the most in the entire world, but turns out, I hate fighting with you the most," he cried into her shoulder. Adriel let out a deep breath and placed her hand over his har, stroking it gently to give him comfort. "I know. I know. Me too." The two of them stayed in that pos
"What is going on here?" Aria glanced at the person just right outside the door. Her breath got caught in the back of her throat when she saw that it was Cedric who came in. "Cedric," Scarlett said in a pitiful voice. Aria snapped her gaze toward Scarlett and frowned with the sudden change of tone in her voice. It seems as if she changed into a completely different person. Aria's eyes widened in surprise when she saw tears brimming in Scarlett's eyes. Cedric worriedly looked at her. He walked up to her and gently held onto her wrist. "What happened? Are you alright?" he asked. Scarlett sniffed before shaking her head. "It hurts," she said. "It feels like my skin is going to fall off." Aria internally scoffed. She was fine moments ago! Why the fuck is she acting like she isn't now? Cedric clicked his tongue and observed her red skin. He then sharply glanced at Aria. "What happened?" he asked. "She—" Aria was about to explain that Scarlett had spilled coffee on her own arm
The chosen models were gathered in the conference room waiting for Miss Faustine. They had been chosen for the new project, and although Aria's mood had been down since yesterday, she felt a slight joy when she found out that she has a new modeling project once again. Adriel came into the room and sat down next to Aria. "Do you know what this project is about?" Aria asked. Adriel pursed her lips together and shook her head. "Not yet," she lied. In reality, she already has an idea of what the project is going to be like. She found out that Cedric and Scarlett would be the main leads of the project when she visited Miss Faustine's office. However, she doesn't have the heart to tell Aria about the information. Cedric came into the room, making Aria's face light up. However, her expression dimmed down when Scarlett came after him. She looked at Cedric and waved her hands, but Cedric merely looked at her and ignored her presence. Adriel watched as the situation panned out. She gently
“You’re really just going to let Scarlett get away with this?” Adriel’s words continuously rang in the back of Aria’s mind. She had thought about telling Cedric that she doesn’t have anything to do with Scarlett’s injury, of course. But she doesn’t know how to ultimately prove her innocence. If she just approaches Cedric and verbally tell him about what had happened, there’s no guarantee that he’s going to believe her. Moreover, it seems like he already believes Scarlett’s story—probably because they have more history with each other. Then yet again, she doesn’t want to stop right here. If she lets herself be intimidated by this situation, then why the hell did she go to such lengths just to tell Cedric about her feelings? She shook her head and stood up from her seat. This can’t be. “I need to talk to him,” she muttered under her breath. She wandered around the office in hopes of finding Cedric. Fortunately for her, Cedric was hanging around one of the conference rooms, and he
The three of them were already seated at the restaurant. Scarlett opted to sit next to Cedric, so Aria had no other choice but to sit across from him. She was all alone on one side of the table, and she was contemplating whether she should just leave the restaurant. It seems like Scarlett had made it a pact to annoy the shit out of her ever since they arrived at the restaurant. Cedric has been oblivious to this growing tension, though, and it seems like he has no clue about the hostile atmosphere around the table. For starters, she spilled some water on Aria's shirt the second that they sat down at the table. It backfired on her, though, since Cedric helped Aria wipe the wet area. Then, when they started ordering, Scarlett corrected Aria's pronunciation of the word "Boeuf Bourguignon" and proceeded to tattle that she's great at French cuisine and was very fast to learn the French language. In the end, their conversation was filled with nothing but Scarlett's bragging. "Thank go
