Wanting my best friend’s brother Chapter 32
The next two days were exhausting and tiring. I had never been so invested like this before. Even when I hadn’t gotten a deal with ModelLuxe, I didn't take sourcing the modeling agency as seriously as I have these two days.I reached out to other agencies that could match up to ModelLuxe. I followed up on contacts, sent emails, took calls, and sat through conversations that went nowhere. I didn't even get a proper meeting out of it. The few that were willing to work with me didn’t meet the standard I wanted and the ones that did, were either unavailable or uninterested.By the end of the second day, I was already tired not just physically but mentally as well.I walked into the office that evening after my final hope had been dashed and just collapsed on the couch inside my dressing room. Maya came in to hang some dresses and saw me there. She chuckled and dropped the dresses. I could see the ‘I told you so’ all over her face but she didn't say it because of how exhausted I looked."T

Later that night, after everything that had happened, I took my shower and sat on my couch with a warm cup of coffee. My body was tired and my mind wouldn’t stop drifting back to how Chloe turned out to be the manager I’m supposed to work with. Every time I closed my eyes, it was the same images, Chloe’s face, her hand in Ethan’s, and Anabel watching like I meant nothing to her anymore.I turned on my TV hoping it would get me distracted from all the crazy thoughts in my head. I just stared at the screen, still lost in thought. It wasn't working. I exhaled slowly, closing my eyes while resting my head on the couch. Just as I was about to drift into another restless thought, there was a knock on the door. I frowned slightly. Who could be knocking by this time? I sat up, hesitating for a second before getting up from the couch and walking toward the door. Another knock followed. I opened it, and it was Ethan.For a second, I just stood there, staring at him. Of all the things I expecte

The silence in the room stretched a little too long.I didn’t move or say anything. I just sat there from across my desk, staring at Chloe like my brain was still trying to catch up with what my eyes were already seeing. Maya was the first to break it."Hi…" she said slowly, glancing between both of us like she could already feel something was off. "You must be the manager from ModelLuxe agency?"Chloe’s gaze shifted from me to Maya, her expression smoothing out instantly like she flipped a switch."Yes," she said calmly. "I’m Chloe."Maya nodded, trying to recover the professionalism in the room."I’m Maya, and this is...""Linda." Chloe cut in, her eyes returning to mine.Then she added, almost too casually. "So… it’s you."My fingers tightened slightly on the file in my hand, but I didn’t respond. Maya paused.Her eyes moved from Chloe to me. That was when she knew. Still, she tried to keep things normal."Okay…" she said slowly. "Do you both know each other?""No," I said immediat

Later that night, I took my shower and just lay on my bed. I closed my eyes at some point, but the sleep never really came. Every time I drifted off, I saw it again. How Chloe held Ethan’s hand, the way she looked at him, and the way Anabel stood there like I meant nothing to her.By morning, I woke up tired, but I got ready for work anyway. I needed to focus on something else that didn’t involve replaying yesterday over and over again. At least work felt safe.The moment I stepped into my office, I saw it. The flowers sat neatly on my desk like they belonged there. They looked fresh and beautiful. The kind I would normally smile at without even thinking twice on a normal day. There was a small card tucked between them. I already knew who it was from.I stood there for a second, just looking at it. Then I walked closer and picked up the card. It said:I’m sorry, Lin. -EthanI exhaled slowly, staring at the words a little longer than I should have. My phone buzzed in my hand. It was E

I didn’t stop walking. I could hear him walking behind me, calling my name, but I didn’t turn back. I didn’t trust myself to do that because if I did, I knew I would either cry or say something I wouldn’t be able to take back."Linda…wait."His hand caught my arm just as I got to my car. I stopped still not looking back. I stopped, not because I wanted to, but because I had to. I let out a quiet breath before turning to face him."What?" I asked.My voice didn’t sound like mine. It was too steady. Ethan frowned slightly, like he noticed it too."Can we talk?" he asked. "Please.""We’ve done enough talking for today. Or what more do I need to hear?" I replied."Linda, please. I know how that looked….""How does it look?" I cut in, letting out a short, sarcastic laugh. "Ethan, I was there. I saw it all. You don’t need to explain what I saw.""It’s not what you think," he said quickly.I shook my head. "Of course, you know what I’m thinking now?"He ran a hand through his hair, clearly t
Wanting my best friend’s brother Chapter 27
CHAPTER 27.Ethan had invited me to Anabel’s birthday party. Anabel and I were supposed to plan the party together but she planned it alone since we weren’t on good terms. I didn't even know she was still going to have the party until Ethan gave me an invite. I didn't know how he got it but he asked me to be there. I almost didn’t go. Even after Ethan had reminded me about the party the night before, I still wasn’t sure. It didn’t feel like my place anymore. Not when Anabel hadn’t spoken to me in days. Not when the last thing she said about me was still sitting somewhere between anger and disappointment.I stared at my phone for a long time that morning before finally calling Maya."Do you think I should go?" I asked the moment she picked up.There was a pause on her end. "To Anabel’s party?""Yes."There was another pause. Then she asked, "Do you want to go?"I hesitated. "To be honest, I don’t know and that’s the problem."Maya sighed softly. "Lin… if you don’t go, things will remai

I almost didn't go.I sat on the edge of my bed, staring at my phone. I was already dressed in a beautiful emerald green dress that hugged my body perfectly. My makeup was flawless, my hair was styled, and I looked stunning. But inside, I felt like I was falling apart. I was having cold feet.I did

I barely slept that night after Maya left. I kept thinking about what Maya said about the party. The party is in two days. Just two more days, and I'd have to face both Ethan and Anabel in the same room. How was I supposed to do that? My mind kept running through different versions of what to do at

I woke up to my phone ringing the next morning. My eyes were swollen from crying all night, and my body felt heavy like I hadn't slept at all. I searched for my phone on the couch and saw Anabel's name on my phone’s screen.My heart stopped. For a second I thought Ethan had shown up at her place an

A week passed. I counted every day of it, and somehow the silence between Anabel and me still felt just as heavy as it did that first morning after she found out. I told myself to give her space.I kept myself busy the way you do when you're trying not to think about something, I worked from home,
