I twisted the doorknob slowly. I looked at Jessica, who just stood and came closer to me. James was sleepin
It’s been a week. We’re staying in Arzhel’s house. And Jarred was nowhere to be found. After he was seen in the hospital, no one knew his whereabouts. We couldn’t track him anymore. We didn’t even know if he was still in Los Angeles, but we didn’t want to get too comfortable. We still assumed he w
“What happened?” Arzhel asked the moment I entered the room and leaned on the wall to breathe. I gulped and blinked. I smiled. “I need to use the bathroom,” I reasoned. Arzhel chuckled. “Don’t they have a bathroom there?” he joked. I already started walking to the bathroom. “I was already in
“I will visit him later after I feed you and give you your meds,” I said. He smiled. “Thank you,” he said and gave me his sweetest smile. “But what am I? A kid?” he joked. I pouted. “No, but you're injured,” I said. He laughed. I saw Veronica roll her eyes. “Anyway, what happened to the perso

The next day, I had different scheduled meetings. So I mentally prepared myself for the stress I might encounter. But before that, I needed to eat breakfast so I could have enough energy. When I went out of my room, I saw Arzhel and Veronica in the living room, seated. They were both quiet. Arzhel
She was mocking me. I rolled my eyes. If not Stephanie, it was her who would pester me about Arzhel. And when Veronica would stop talking to me about Arzhel, Stephanie would suddenly appear. How I hated these two immature women. I crossed my arms and lazily looked at her. “Can you spare me this
“Unbelievable,” I mouthed. “Childish,” I mouthed to her and rolled my eyes. We looked away from each other when Arzhel talked again. He passed the document in my direction. “Here’s the draft for the mortgage contract,” Arzhel said. I looked at him. My eyebrows furrowed a little because of confus
