Ana glared up at Arthur with intense anger burning in her eyes.

Arthur gulped, and then heaved a deep sigh, “Oh my God, Miss Smith, I'm so sorry,” He said apologetically and then reached out to her but she slapped her hand away.

Right now, her anger knew no bounds!

“What's your deal, really?” She snapped in a roaring voice, “Why the fuck do you keep giving me mixed signals?”

The honk blared again, making the both of them turn around.

A grey-haired, middle-aged man sat behind the driving wheels of a mini logging truck.

“Yes, we do,” Arthur answered, “Thank you…”

Before he could finish, Ana sprang to her feet and limped over to the car.

“Thank you so much, sir,”

“Any time,” The man replied, making space for her to sit.

Ana opened the door and sat beside him.

Arthur picked up her backpack from the ground and walked over to the car, then made to sit beside her but she stopped him, “It won't contain the both of us.” She deadpanned.

    Hailey and Taylor were sitting side by side opposite Evie as they had lunch together.“So, I finally fucked my boss!” Hailey shared the news no one wanted to hear. “After months of trying to get his dick, and him resisting me, I finally did it! Whoo! You guys should give me some sort of award or something!”Taylor and Evie stayed silent as they had made the ultimate decision not to entertain the stories of Hailey's sexual escapades.“So, will you tell us what's biting you?” Taylor asked Evie, whose face was a mask of disappointment. “You finally got accepted into your father's company, shouldn't you be happy?”“Maybe she's realizing that her old life was much, much better than the usual nine-to-five.” Hailey stated, “Well, too late now bitch! You wanted to work at a company, now you got it.”“Shut up, Hailey!” Taylor and Evie said in unison.“What's wrong, bae?” Taylor asked“Well, my brother told me that he asked permission from him, and he accepted, but it's been weeks now and I hav

  • The Way He Looks At Me    Reconciliation

    Next Morning Lincoln, no longer afraid, had finally turned on his phone and was able to contact Rahim.Rahim had narrated the events of what happened after he left and told them their current location.So right now, he and Ethan were on the way to Tessa's old home.“Are you nervous?” Ethan asked, noticing Lincoln's discomfort as he drove down the road.Lincoln chuckled nervously, “A little bit. I don't know what my mom thinks or how she will see me.”“I think she'll be fine,” Ethan assured him, lacing their hands together. “Trust me.”The rest of the drive was done in utter silence.“You've arrived at your destination.” The automated lady on the GPS announced.“Okay.” Lincoln exhaled heavily. “Guess we're here.”“Come here,” Ethan pulled him close and kissed him softly. “I'm sure you'll do fine.”“Thanks.” They stepped down from the car and walked to the front porch, then rang the doorbell.Rahim was the one who opened the door.“Bro!” He exclaimed excitedly, hugging Lincoln, who hu

  • The Way He Looks At Me    Because It Was Fun?

    Plainclothed police officers were on standby outside of Ethan's penthouse, blending into the environment, eyes out for Connor.They had been waiting for any appearance of Connor for the past hour, but there was still no sight of him.Ethan and Lincoln were up in the living room, their heartbeat faster than usual as they waited.“Do you think he will come?” Lincoln asked Ethan anxiously, “It's been hours, and he's still not here.”Ethan gave him a slight smile. “I don't know. Do you think he will come?”“I don't know.”Ding dong!The doorbell rang suddenly, making them jump out of their skin.“Is that him?” Ethan asked, his grip on Lincoln's arm tightening.“Stay here.” Lincoln placed his hand on Ethan's.“Let me go check.”“Don't go.”“I have to. I'll be fine.” Lincoln reassured him. “Besides, the police are outside, so I'll be fine. That's a promise.”Lincoln rose to his feet and walked into the kitchen, then grabbed a frying pan and walked to the door.“Who is it?” He asked through t

    “Can we trust him?” Hailey enquired in a hushed tone as they stepped out from Lucas's house.“We have to.” Taylor answered, “I think he's actually feeling remorseful.”“As if his remorse could take away all the horrors Ethan went through!” Evie stated, and from her tone, they all knew she was furious. “I wish I could just snap his neck!”“Whoa! Whoa! Snap his neck? We haven't graduated to that level yet.” Hailey stated. “Even though his remorse is as good as useless, he called Connor in front of us, and Connor is on his way to LA right now. So he's helped us, right, Ethan?”“That's right, Evie.” Ethan agreed, “He's helped us.”Evie rolled her eyes, “Yeah, whatever.”“We just have to wait for Connor to come.” Lincoln chimed in, “I think it would be a better idea to keep some of the police stays here because Connor will surely come to Lucas's house before coming over to Ethan's penthouse.”“Wow! The more I spend time with you, the more you surprise me.” Hailey gushed, stepping closer to

  • The Way He Looks At Me    Goodbye, Ana

    “You don't know where you're going, do you?” Ana finally asked, breaking the silence that had been reigning in the car since he told Rahim not to talk to her.“I do,” Rahim answered.“You don't.”“I do.”“You don't,” Ana sighed and facepalmed, “Ugh! I knew I should have gone alone.”“Gone alone to where, Ana? At every hospital in LA? Do you know how many hospital rooms there are in one hospital, let alone all the hospitals within the district, let alone the whole of LA? Use your head.”Well, he does have a point. Ana thought to herself. But no way in hell am I admitting that he's right.“Then where are we?” She asked.“We're here,” Rahim announced, parking the car in front of an old house.“Where's ‘here’?” Ana asked in confusion, glancing to and fro down the street.“Arthur's aunt's house,” Rahim answered, stepping down from the car. “Come on.”“Hey, wait up,” Ana said sharply, unbuckling the seatbelt, stepping down from the car and chasing after Rahim, who was already walking down t
