This kind of gaze from him already has an effect on her. He looks so hot and he has his way of inciting desire from within her. Melissa put the book on the coffee table as she stood. She would like to try something with him.“Why don’t you sit first?” She suggested as she acted coy, giving him space to move over.But instead of doing as she asked, he kept moving closer to her. She tried to stand her ground and not avoid him. She raised an eyebrow as he stood right in front of her. She could smell his unique cologne, musky and masculine. He squinted at her. He has ideas of his own, but they’re currently away from a wall. He would like to reenact the first time she tried to seduce him. Since the couch is closer, he sat down as she requested.For one, she wanted to know which of them would give in first. She didn’t remove her clothes and went straight to straddle him. He raised an eyebrow as she pressed her body close to his and then, she rubbed herself on him as she licked the right sid
Well, it took more than a day. Scouting the next business area in the city, that is.Melissa realized that it’s fun, but there’s that underlying worry. Would she be able to get a job or not? She’s not exactly pressured at this point, but she could sympathize with the others she saw. Life is hard, apparently.A few days later, she finally got a call and she was asked to come in for an interview. It’s fairly easy to see that there’s something different about her. She has this air of confidence that didn’t stem from… an actual confidence in her skills or knowledge. Her confidence stems from the fact that she can afford to fail to interview.From a professional standpoint, she carries herself well. She answers in a straight-forward manner. She didn’t stammer. Her replies seem very honest. It was all good until you look at her resume, or ask her about her experiences. There’s none. And she couldn’t share anything about it. Ranking-wise, she’s lined up with the fresh graduates. It’s a real
Melissa made plenty of preparations. She did research the company but it’s not as if she can tell what the employees would be like when she gets in. Her lip twitched.Well, since Lily could bear working for the company for over a year now, it’s probably not that bad.For some reason, she felt nervous when she handed in her resume. She tried focusing her attention elsewhere but she’s still bothered by it.“What’s gotten into you?” Klyde asked her one night. He’s still working on a document at his study when she showed up. She was somewhat restless, even when she’s just trying to read a book.“What do you mean?” She asked back.“You look out of it. You seem anxious about something.” Though they’ve only known each other for a short while, he could tell something is different about her this time.She pursed her lips, contemplating whether she could tell him or not. Well, letting it out helps, right?“I have applied to a company I want to work in. My friend is there, so it should be good.
She couldn’t stop grinning and feeling happy for the rest of the day.When Lily called, she went over to her place to celebrate with her. She brought their favorite food and a bottle of wine.Her friend is happy for her but she’s worried, too. Mel could be flexible. She can adapt to many situations… she should be good. Right?When she returned to Klyde’s place, she’s a little tipsy. But her energy is still high. Her smile was as wide as it could be as she approached the master of the house.The man frowned at her figure. He could already tell she’s not sober. That expression on her face is a little sickening as he’s unfamiliar with it.“Where have you been?” His tone was hostile but she doesn’t seem to mind.“Oh, just a little celebration with my friend.” She grinned stupidly as she reached for his arm and clung to it.“I got a job!” She stated it in a sing-song. Her voice was not unpleasant.Klyde pursed his lips, “It’s good that you got a job, but do you have to come home drunk?”Sh
Damn was it hard. She complained to Lily. On the first day alone, she was already contemplating if she should simply quit. She couldn’t remember how many times it crossed her mind that first week. Lily chuckled and told her it’s pretty normal.“I was like that on my first job, too. Don’t stress. You’ll get over it. It’s not knowing exactly what to do that has you in jitters. I’m sure most people experience it.”“But what do I do? They now think I’m stupid. I didn’t realize how much tasks there would be. I’m not used to dealing with multiple things at once, working at them at the same time. How do you survive the month-end with all those reports?” Mel looked truly exhausted at that point.Lily made a face for her to see. “Oh, come on. They were still simple tasks. You simply need to get used to it. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll do well. The thing is, the more you’re afraid that you’ll mess up, the more you would. So, chill. Relax and just do your job. Stop thinking what would hap
Lily frowned at her when she finished relating her last week’s experience in the office.“What’s his name?”“Cedric. I was told he’s also wooing women from other departments, you included. Is it true?” Truthfully, she’s not interested in the guy. She’s merely concerned if he’s playing with people, especially if it’s her friend.Lily pursed her lips. “Are you sure? Why do I feel like you’re talking about a different person? The Cedrik I know is somewhat timid, not arrogant…”Melissa stared at her for a while. “Really?”“I mean, do you like this guy? Do you happen to have a picture?” She added, wanting to settle this matter quickly.“Well, I actually do. I stalked his social media one time. I mean, he’s cute and acted like a fine gentleman.” Her friend explained as she browsed through her phone.Oh, well. They might actually be talking about different people, which would be a good thing. She patiently waited for Lily to show her a photo.“Oh, here. Look. This is Cedrik.”Melissa dramati
The next morning, Melissa doesn’t know if she should be angry at herself or at him. She let him continue, so that’s on her. But heck, she’s already too tired to put up a fight. She decidedly glared at him and began to hit his arm and exposed chest. She’s too weak compared to him so she just hit him wherever.“What the…?” Klyde was surprised to be woken up like this and rolled off the bed.“What’s wrong with you?” He snapped and returned her glare.“What happened to stopping at three? Just because I didn’t stop you, do you really have to continue? You! You can’t keep doing that. We stop at three, no matter what.”“Oh, come on. You enjoyed it, too.” He’s not about to simply agree with her.“There were nights you would seduce me to continue. How come it’s my fault when I seduce you for more?” He immediately added.Ah, yes. He could be this irritating. In her annoyance, she picked up the pillows and threw them at him. Pointless, she knew. It doesn’t hurt the man.Klyde looked away when sh
The next day, Lily was on the lookout for Cedrik. The moment she saw him near the elevators, she approached him. For some reason, she’s surprised she hasn’t encountered his twin yet. Even with that knowledge, she’s somehow sure that this one is Cedrik. Not the asshat.She’s now familiar with his demeanor and facial expressions.“Hi.”He looked surprised to see her.“Uh, hi.” His reply was hesitant and it’s clear from his face that he’s not expecting this.She noticed him touching the bridge of his nose and she’s even more sure that it’s him.“I’m sorry about yesterday. It was a misunderstanding.” She went directly to the point and apologized.He frowned as he finally looked at her, seemingly asking her to explain further.“My friend encountered your… uh, brother and thought he was you. I mean, I was doubtful that she was talking about you but when I showed her a photo of you, she confirmed that it was you. I didn’t know you have a twin. I only heard about it yesterday around noon. I’v
