Finn’s POVWhat the hell?! It shouldn’t have happened! How am I so stupid to fall for it again?I even bury myself on the duffel bag wrapped on my arms. Moe sitting beside me, laughing as he told me what happened on the bar and how I end up on Boone’s condo. “Don’t worry, man. It’s fine.” Moe way of comforting didn’t help at all. With him failing to hide his laugh on the situation.“But…” I try to dig some words to express what I feel but even my brain won’t cooperate with me. There is no other emotion that I feel other than shame, disappointment and maybe frustration. “How I should face the other now?” Moe even burst in laughter. “What?! Can’t you see I am stressing here? Act like a friend for once, Moe.” I faced him and throw punches on his biceps. It didn’t hurt him so much. This guy workout and just simply blocking punches from someone like me is nothing.“Chill out, man.”I stopped. Bury myself again on my bag sitting on my desk. The
Third Person’s POVThe waiter carefully lays the dessert plate on each person on the table. The University has prepared a variety of sweets for today’s lunch. Chocolate mousse, burnt basque cheesecake with caramel sauce and carrot cake was set in the center and for a moment Zeke forgot the awkward silence that they were in. Oliver elbowed him. Pointing at the three that are surprisingly quiet.“What?!” He whined at him under his breath. Zeke leaned on to reach the mousse and took a slice of it. Not minding the three. “They’ll be fine. But my tummy won’t if I’ll let this baby miss.” He devoured the sweets. Moaning every time the soft chocolate texture enveloped his tongue.“Seriously?” He shook his head in disbelief. “Don’t you even want to help them…you know talk?” He whispered.“Why? Are they fighting?” Still confused about the situation. Moe is a slow eater, he is still munching the meat that had been gobbled by the others mi
Third Person’s POV“Wahhh!” Irvin shrieked when he jumped into the water. His body sunk into the deep, clear sea. The coldness sends shivers unto him that awaken his body from the exhaustion of these weeks’ happenings. His top was neatly folded and placed on the biggest stone that lay just a few steps away. The sneakers that Irvin wears also hide away the reach of dirt and water. As the others enjoy nature's pool, Henrick watches his figure subside and resurface to the water. He finds it amusing to see Irvin play on his own like a kid that is being brought to the playground for the first time.“Hey,” He called out to Henrick.”What are you doing there?” Henrick looked at him full of questions on his face. “Don’t you want to join me?”“Uh…No…I-uh”“You can’t be serious.” He squirmed at Henrick's response. Irvin pushed the water towards him. The first throw barely reached him. But the next one, he added some force that the liquid hit his torso. He continued to

She wasn’t planning to open the bottle after a few days being at home, but the stress that her son is giving her is too much that can only be cured by the expensive drink.

She didn’t have any admiration towards Max. Even after the marriage they both know that the bond they have is a mere responsibility that needs to be obtained for the benefit of their parents. But regardless of the reason, Sylvia has only one thing in mind. To keep Henrick’s rightful spot as the future owner and CEO of E-Vans Technologies. She once failed with her plans, she no longer wants to crash her goal for her only son.Max had gained the inheritance of his father because of Sylvia, she carried a son that was full of potential to be an heir and
Henrick’s POVThe loud ringing of my phone wakes me up from my nap. Irvin was probably too tired that even the annoying vibration of the gadget that I didn’t notice fell on my pocket and landed on the bed, just between us.I checked the caller, it was Ran. “Yes?” I slowly stand on my feet. Hoping not to wake him up.“Sorry to wake you up.”“It’s fine.” I walked out of the room and headed back to my room “Do you have any update?”“No. I haven’t found Donnie yet. But I found some gems in the process of my digging.”“And that is?” Puzzled at ‘gems’ that Ran has been talking about. What I am sure of is he is not referring to a stone.“Well, there are numbers of staff on the scene during the shooting. And after they were rescued by the Italian police, all that was left was the shattered Villa. There are also no bones or remains on the island. All the police had found was the Italian employees that were hiding at the seaside.”
Finn was still on the couch when Boone entered the room. His body was taking one-fourth of the two long L-shaped couches connected. Oliver and Zeke were just standing in the corner, enjoying their free drinks before heading downstairs to vibing with the other guests tonight. "Is he drunk again?" Boone asked Zeke."Nope. He is just sleeping." He replied as-a-matter-of-fact.Oliver walked closer to them and whispered, "Aren’t you going to take him home?" "Why?" He smiled. "Nothing." He shook his head. "I'm just curious." Zeke laughed at him. Giving him a strong slap on his shoulder. "God! Is that your way of asking Finn's drink for yourself?""What d'you mean?" His brow furrowed, looking at the two exchanging laughter at the situation that he can't get a thing. Oliver raised his glass, almost empty. The remaining orangey liquid inside of it can be done in one gulp. They asked the staff for an additional order of the drink but unfortunately they added some concoction that the manage
Five in the morning, Henrick’s alarm woke him up from his deep slumber. Irvin was still on his shoulder, arms resting on his waist. He watched his chest rise and fall on every breath that he takes. For Henrick, Irvin looks way more attractive when he is not stressing out. When his brow doesn’t furrow and his eyes crease as the tears escape and fall down through his cheeks. If only he can shield away all the problems to keep him in his safe zone, Henrick would probably make it possible.He reached out for his phone that rested on the bedside table, and shut the endless uproar of his alarm without breaking the embrace. Henrick intentionally set the alarm way too early than he usually does. Last night, when Irvin already drifted to dreamland, he changed his seven AM alarm into five for his plan. His right hand carefully scooped Irvin’s head and slowly took away his left arm underneath it. Making sure that his movement won’t wake the sleeping beauty besides him.There isn’t light peeking

He stroll the internet last night about this newly opened café that Boone was talking about and the cheesecake were the one that really took his interest.While Boone was anticipating the fact that he had a chance to do their usual thing when they are still together. He was hoping that it will make Finn realize that he also missed him as his lover and would take back his words. If it won’t happen then he’ll find another way.After ten minutes of drive, they reach the said café. It is a minimalist styled two story café. Wherein the second floor was designated for customers that wants to enjoy to eat in private. It has six small rooms that contains a small table, set of chairs, one or two wall decorations and wide glassed windows that gives the customers the different views. Boone didn’t hesitate to avail the private one, the farthest room from t
