“What was buried here?” the voice of the corps could be heard from the garden. Gina felt her entire system reverberate in fear. They found the grave; she was definitely going to prison. She was still in the sitting room when Ralph walked out; she also followed him immediately as she began thinking of the perfect explanation.“What is there shouldn’t be your business. Don’t you think you’re overstepping your boundaries?” Ralph asked upon joining them in the garden. He looked so relaxed as he spoke to the corps like he didn’t just bury three men right there a few days ago.“No, we have a search warrant,” one of the corps said, flashing a piece of paper. “We would like to know what is inside. We’d like to open it,” the corps said.“Something was buried inside a few days ago; it might smell really bad if you open it. Are you sure you want to do that?” Ralph asked, while Gina stepped on his foot to stop him from talking.“That wouldn’t be necessary,” Gina started. “It is—”“Why wouldn’t it
Gina's breath hitched, her eyes searching his face for a glimpse of emotion. But all she found was a flicker, a fleeting warmth hidden beneath the cold exterior.The spell was broken as Ralph gently released his hold, allowing Gina to regain her balance. His features reverted to their impassive state, as if nothing out of the ordinary had transpired.Gina, her heart still racing, offered a small understanding smile. She didn't need words to convey her gratitude for his support. She knew that beneath his icy facade, he had shown a rare vulnerability.“that was an epic fail” ralph muttered breaking the awkward silence, with his left hand still resting on her waist slightly and his eyes fixed on her. Gina’s eyes darted towards a young couple who seemed so engrossed in the dance, probably being too extra as they were dancing and spinning each other with every ounce of strength in them. The man pulled the lady in a romantic way which came out a bit too aggressive to be called “romantic” an
Ralph stormed into the lady's restroom in search of Gina. He opened each door but couldn't find her anywhere. He had been searching everywhere for her, but it seemed like Boris might have found her first. Ralph ran his hand through his thick hair, trying to control his anger. He stood in front of the mirror as he tried relaxing his mind so he could think of what to do next. Nobody was stopping him from leaving, but for some reason, he couldn't leave without her. As he stood in front of the mirror trying to clear his mind, a cleaner stepped in."Sir, you can't be here. This is the ladies' room," the young lady said as she placed her mop bucket down and took off her gloves."Where's Boris?" Ralph asked, still facing the mirror."The CEO should be in his office. He's probably exhausted after welcoming various guests," the lady answered with a smile. Ralph turned around to face her."Take me to him," Ralph demanded. The lady stared at him for a moment before bursting into laughter."You m
"I want this," Zayn whined, pointing at a pair of white Jordans inside a glass display case.Gina walked over to the display case to check the price tag. A silent gasp escaped her lips when she saw the price – $20,000 for a pair of ordinary kids' sneakers. She took a few steps back towards Ivy and whispered to her, "Are you sure about this store? Everything is crazily expensive here. Maybe we should go somewhere else where they sell affordable items.""Don't tell me you already feel sorry for him? Don't worry, he can definitely pay for everything. Besides, it is only a few thousand dollars. Our shopping target is $500,000 or...," Ivy replied with a wink."Wait, what!? $500,000? Are you serious right now? That's a lot. How do you expect me to pick items that cost so much?" Gina whispered in shock."What do you think I meant when I said 'you're going to be leaving him bankrupt'? Besides, the debit card has no limit, so step aside, chicken!" Ivy said with an eye roll as she made her way
The following morning, the sun cast its golden rays through the curtains of Gina's bedroom, signalling the start of a new day. Gina stretched lazily in her bed, her mind still filled with fragments of the previous night's events. The kiss with Ralph replayed in her thoughts, leaving her feeling a mixture of excitement and unease. As she rose from her bed, she couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation every time she walked past Ralph, as if an invisible force had suddenly magnified their shared space.The atmosphere in the apartment felt different, charged with unspoken tension that hung in the air. Gina tiptoed through the hallway, trying to avoid any unnecessary contact with Ralph. She busied herself in the kitchen, preparing breakfast for herself and their son. The clattering of dishes filled the silence, providing her with a temporary distraction from her swirling thoughts.Ralph entered the kitchen, his presence immediately felt. Gina's heart skipped a beat, and she pretended to
Gina's request to go to Florida to find her mom left Ivy and Ralph surprised, but they understood the significance of the journey for Gina. Ivy decided to stay back and take care of Zayn and asked Ralph to accompany Gina for some reason.The next week, Gina and Ralph stood outside their house, ready to embark on their journey to Florida. They had packed a few essentials, including the old journal and the photos they found in the box as they loaded their bags into a white pickup car.“you bought a car” gina asked folding her cold hands inside her jacket“i did” ralph answered putting his luggage and gina’s luggage in the trunk“you never told me” gina muttered, not surprised as how he randomly buys expensive property“how? you’ve been avoiding me for the past few” ralph said to her with a final glance as he closed the trunk and walked over to the driver’s seat“can you drive?” gina asked in shock“no, i’m on a mission to get us both killed” ralph answered sarcastically while gina rolle
“do you know who i am?” ralph asked as he took few steps towards her“why should….“of course, you don’t, because you’ve never met me in person, you’ve only interacted with my father” he said, interrupting her “i’ll leave you two, tell her everything she needs to know” ralph said and was about leaving when Sonia said something that Stop him in his tracks“can you stop bothering me?! Go to hell and never show up in my live because i don’t want you here” “i told your fucking mom to get rid of you, but she decided to keep you! You are nothing but a liability and misfortune” Sonia spat making gina’s lips drop in shock“laura used to be my sister, she used to be the only family i had after our parent passed away. She never wanted a child, she never wanted you, but you came in anyways! Her life got more difficult after she conceived you. you were diagnosed with lung cancer at a very young age, after which your mother passed away. her last wish was for me to save you at all cost. where does
“what’s stopping you?” gina whispered in a seductive voice as she let out a moan when she felt his fingers gliding on the surface of her vagina, giving her a tingling sensation.“you’re drunk, you’d hate me once you come to your senses tomorrow” ralph said as he slowly withdrew his hands underneath her dress making gina groan in frustration“i already hate you anyways” gina said as she wrapped her hands around his neck, he pulled her face in as their lips locked. His hands trailed all the way to her waist as he kissed her lips passionate, but gina suddenly broke the kiss.“this isn’t what i want, kisses are not intimate enough” she stuttered as she broke the kiss“what do you want?” he asked in a whisper as he tucked in a lose strand of her hair behind her earlobe, his eyes rooming all over her body with lust“fuck me ralph, fuck me really hard like you used to do in the past. Do it like your life depends on it, don’t be gentle” gina whispered as her hands trailed all the way towards
