After I accidentally uploaded a rant post instead of my resignation letter, the messages went like this. Me: [Did you see the file I submitted?] He: [Mm… yeah. I saw it.] Me: [Then why didn't you reply? You don't approve?] He went quiet. I lost my patience and typed back, [If you're not saying anything, I'll take that as a yes. I'll come by your office this afternoon.] He replied almost instantly. [That fast?] Me: [Fast? How is that fast?] He: [I need some time to think.] Two seconds later, another message came in. [Is that okay?] I said yes. He ended up leaving work early and even gave the entire company three days off. Sitting at my desk, I thought about it for a long time. He was the owner of the company, yet there he was, acting like he was afraid I might leave. Was he really that desperate to keep me?

She was tight with Cecilia, so I let her handle the invites.After setting everything up, I finally slept peacefully.However, the next day, I overheard her call with Janice.She said...What?A huge blowout? Complaining of a sore back and aching waist?Who had she been with until the wee hours of the night?I was ready to burst with frustration.That was why I texted her first, inquiring about her cold.She ignored my text, replying to Janice instead.Who would have thought? She ignored me and responded to Janice instead."We could go on another three hundred rounds."I was standing right next to Janice, overhearing everything.My world came crashing down.My little test had backfired.She really had spent last night with someone else.The documents I thought were for me had always been meant for someone else.That term of endearment–'Baby'--was not mine either.I blocked her.I told myself I would just stay her boss and nothing more.…As the higher-up, I should

The contents of the closet, an eclectic collection, sparkled before his eyes.He stood, petrified.Then, slowly, he turned to look at me.I buried my face in my hands and retreated under the covers."Is this part of your friendship, too?"I peeked out, defensive. "I'm straight, and so is she!"Edmund's lips curled into a sly smile. "So, what's our next move? We can't just ignore her heartfelt efforts, can we?"With that...The king slept through the morning bells, while the lessons went on around the clock.…(An Edmund Side Story)Out of the blue today, I got an encrypted email from Cecilia.The first line alone was enough to give me a jolt.Why on earth would she... send me stuff like that?I practically read it in secret.I thought about playing dumb, but then she messaged me, asking if I had made any headway.Did she really want to talk about the story with me? That did not seem quite right.I mean, I had been smitten with her for ages, but we had not made it offic

Finally, the workday ended.My colleagues filed out one after another.I stood up, my eyes lingering on the office door.He still was not coming out. He probably did not want to see me.I type slowly, my words careful and tentative. [I guess I'll head home, then.][Wrap up and be careful on your way back, okay?]…I sniffled.I pick up my bag, stand, and flick off the light.Footsteps sounded in the elevator hall, and my heart started to pound like a drumbeat.One step, two steps…Then he was standing right beside me.I kept my head down, avoiding his gaze."Like the shoes?"Out of nowhere, I was overwhelmed by a wave of sadness, and my eyes brimmed with tears.The elevator dinged on arrival.I did not budge.He had hurt me, and I refused to share an elevator ride with him."Come on." Edmund grabbed my hand authoritatively. Our fingers laced together in a tight grip as he pulled me into the elevator.I felt even more wronged."Why is it that you can ignore me when y

"Who's at home?"Edmund raised an eyebrow, giving the place a quick once-over. "Beats me. You'll have to check for yourself."…I have no idea where Edmund picked up that move.He hung up right after dropping that bomb, leaving me standing there, scratching my head in bewilderment."Cecilia... Are you ever going to rescue me..." Adrian's voice was barely a whisper in the living room.I dashed out of the bedroom."I've been calling you for ten whole minutes, and you finally grace me with your presence!"I felt like I was about to pass out. "What's this all about? Are you admiring yourself, or is this some kind of DIY job?""No, I thought these handcuffs were just a joke, that I could wriggle out of them. Who knew they'd be so sturdy!"These aren't love cuffs; they look like they're made for real criminals."I was so annoyed that I gave her hand a smack. "Hold on, I'll find the key for you."...An hour later, we were at a standstill."Where's the key?" she asked."Somethi

I opened the document at lightning speed. It was the piece I had written while goofing off.Luckily, it was still there.I set up my snacks and water, all geared up. Ready to burn the midnight oil and hit the ground running.I would deal with the voluntary layoff and the severance package later.

"Why the sudden change of heart?" Edmund's face was a mask, his voice all business."I've let the usual office antics slide, and I've taken your jokes in stride, but when it comes to the job..." He paused, his voice softening. "In our line of work, shouldn't we think things through and then stick t
