No More Crying
Kai is dancing against me while I am stoned in my spot. What the hell is he doing? And most importantly, what is he doing here? He should be in the company dinner!
His hands are wrapped around my waist as he swayed through a Justin Timberlake song. His eyes are directed to mine with his face so close.
I swallowed and just stared at him. He’s looking at me like he’s thinking of what I am thinking. I bit my lip and looked away.
I felt him leaning to my ear. “What’s wrong? Finish the damn dare so I could get you out of here immediately,” he whispered as he danced through the song.
I looked at him with narrowed eyes. “I’m not supposed to dance with you,” I firmly told him. “Let go of me!” I tried to wriggle out of his grip but he only tightened his arms around me.
“You want to leave my side and then what? You’ll dance with just some
THAT PAPER BAGJuneau Portman is Kai’s half-brother. Rachel Grey is with Kai inside this cafeteria.Karen started talking about Juneau’s relationship with Kai. “I heard that the two aren’t close. They’re acting civil but they’re not close,” she said. “Kaisser Bennett is the legitimate child while Juneau Portman was only acknowledged five years ago.”“Who’s older?” I asked.John smiled. “I think they’re of the same age. Juneau Portman’s mother was Mr. Bennett’s secretary before. I don’t know the story in full and specified details but I think Juneau happened because of a mistake,” he narrated.I narrowed my eyes at him. “Juneau wasn’t acknowledged before?” I asked.They all shook their heads.“I remember Mr. Kaisser Bennett get wild and mad when he knew that Juneau would start w
WHYMy jaw almost dropped when I heard what he told me. I wanted to ask for the reason behind all of these but no words could come out of my mouth. I’m dumbfounded, flabbergasted, baffled.He opened the paper bag in front of me and placed the food on my desk. “Eat.” He urged as he placed the pizza near my face. Why is he doing this to me? Why is he feeding me?I pursed my lips in a thin line and glared at him. “Where’s your girlfriend?” I asked him sharply.He looked up at me and his jaw tensed. “Not here,” he replied but the pizza was still in the air.I narrowed my eyes at him. “Then, what are you doing here?” I asked again.He pursed his lips before letting out a deep breath. “I don’t think I need to be everywhere she is,” he replied and was still persistent on feeding me the pizza.I scoffed. “Yeah, right! When you were
WHO YOU BELONG TOKai stood up and smiled at my members. I could almost see the three girls’ eyes glisten at the sight of him. “How are you here?” he asked casually like nothing is happening before they came in.The girls’ cheeks blushed as they heard Kai’s voice while the boys just smiled at him.“We’re good, Mr. Bennett.” It was John who answered Kai’s question. I have a feeling that he’s the only one who could talk right now. “Miss Eunique delegates the works well.” He chuckled.Kai smiled and looked at me. I tried hard not to look away because I know that it would just attract questions and attention. “Only the best for the company,” he said and chuckled as well. He turned to me again before smiling at them. “By the way, I just came by to tell your head about some important matters. I’ll leave you now.” He smiled. “Ha
ON THE GROUNDI feel like I am a hopeless case. I want to stand by my principles but only one word from him makes me turn my back on all the sane things in my life.“You belong to me,” he whispered as his kiss trailed to my cheek. He was marking his own territory as he planted soft, feather-light kisses on my cheek, towards my lips.I shut my eyes forcefully as I felt his soft lips on mine. It was soft and light at first but when I started to respond, his kiss got deeper and more magical. I could feel his hands on my sides rubbing my waist up and down as his kiss got deeper and deeper.I moaned at his touch and then, I could feel his tongue tracing every corner of my mouth. I willingly give in to the mystique of his kisses.His hands found their way inside my chiffon polo and went up to my stomach, up to my chest. I arched my back as I felt him cup my breast. I’m officially going crazy because of his to
WARM HUGThe boys started to talk about business matters while we, girls, decided to sit on the side of the pool, dipping our feet on the hot water.Janice looked at me with questioning eyes. “Are you back together?” she asked.I looked at her and shook my head. “You know I won’t get involved with him when he’s still with Rachel Grey,” I replied. Then I narrowed my eyes at them. “Did you know he’d come here, by the way?” I asked.The three looked at each other and bit their lips. There, I know they knew.Ashley sighed. “He asked Kris about this getaway. I was with them last night,” she started to confess. “He said he wanted to get drunk because he didn’t know what to do.”I creased my brows. He doesn’t know what to do? What does that mean?“He keeps on saying he wanted to be with you but he couldn’t break u
DON’T LET GO“I can hug you, can’t I?”Kai’s soft voice enveloped my ears as he carefully wrapped his arms around me.I smiled weakly as I looked up at him. He’s looking at me with eyes so serious and caring at the same time. I couldn’t look away.I bit my lip and slowly nodded. It’s too hard to not want this hug. I’ve always wanted this hug. I’ve lived to be hug by him like this. How could I stop him from fulfilling my dream?He smiled and sighed in relief as he pulled me closer—my face towards his chest—kissing my forehead before leaning his chin on top of my head.I missed the old times because it feels like the old times once more. His touch makes me want to go back to the past and make everything right. If I could’ve done it more cautiously, then, things may have been different.Times like this, I couldn’t help but thin
HIS LAPIt’s not a new question to me anymore whenever I am asked when I will fall in love again. When I was in New York, almost all of my close friends and colleagues asked me why I wasn’t entertaining everyone who has shown interest in me. I would always just reply, “I’m not looking for love right now.”I wasn’t. I wasn’t ever looking for love. Love comes at the most unexpected time in the most unexpected manner.I still remember knowing Kaisser Bennett vividly. I was looking for a tissue paper because my stomach is really in a row that fateful day. I almost yelled at the vending machine for tissue papers and sanitary napkins because I’d already wasted a lot of my coins but it doesn’t give me what I need.“Do you need tissue?” His manly voice asked me from behind me. I could remember how he looked so worried and confused at the same time as I stared at him with
WHAT’S BEST FOR THE ONE I LOVE“You must eat lunch on time,” Kai beamed at me as he lifted the spoon near my face.I opened my mouth and ate what was on the spoon. I chewed the food before replying, “I had a lot of new applicants to interview.”He narrowed his eyes on me. I could see his jaw clenching as he looked at me. “Even so…” he muttered as he fed me another. “Damn. I should’ve asked Serena to bring you food for lunch.”I chewed the food and stared at him. Right now, I feel like it is four years over and over again. He’s here, feeding me lunch, telling me not to skip meals for anything, taking care of me so well. I could remember every minute we spent doing these same things years ago. And the feeling is so good—so good that I could actually love time to stop.“It’s fine. My members could do that for me,” I told him and
