Masuk“Not yet, but there’s this someone I really like now,” she said with a giggle. My eyes widened a bit in excitement. “Do Arzhel and your friends know about that man?” I teased. She laughed. “They do, but it’s kind of complicated,” she said. “Oh, I’m sure you can figure that out,” I said. Knowin
I was about to turn around to mingle with his friends, but the moment I turned around, Stephanie appeared in front of me. She startled me a little, but I didn’t make it obvious. She was giving me her sweetest smile, but since I felt some eyes on us, which I was sure were from Arzhel’s friends, I w
I looked at the people around the table. Then back to Stephanie. I saw her looking at Arzhel’s friends. She gave them a full, wide smile. They smiled at her too, but it was quick. What was wrong with them? They knew Stephanie as the sweet girl. That was why they were always excited every time the
“Oh my gosh, I miss your cooking,” Liezel said, her eyes sparkling. I smiled, and we all went to the dining table. “There they are,” Lenie said when she saw us. She first came to me and hugged me. “You look stunning in your elegant black dress, Lenie,” I complimented her. The diamonds in her d

Luckily, the waiter arrived and served our food. We forgot about our topic and proceeded with our dinner. This was one of the most silent dinners I had. The last time we had dinner, it was still okay, not awkward, because I had Arriana with me, whom I could give my attention to. But now, it was
I stood on the balcony, holding a glass of red wine in my right hand. The cold breeze hit my face. It calmed me for a second, but then it brought me back to my thoughts. “You asked me to stop humiliating you. I did what you wanted.” What Arzhel said kept echoing in my mind. “You waited all thes
