Wine Stained Lips Chapter Fourteen
James' POVI stared at the blue letters on the desk as the mystery of who sent the three of them races through my mind. It's past midnight and it's been hours since I drove Calla back home yet I still can't fathom the lore connecting the blue letters with me.The recent letter had my name written in red ink just like the last two and a paper in it. It read:Tu ne sais rienWhich translates to "You know nothing." I whispered in the dark as my fingers ran through my hair. One of the best days of my life has suddenly been replaced with crippling anxiety from a someone whose name I didn't know and whose face I've probably never seen.The vague message consumed my mind as I lurk for hidden messages in the prints. I brought the lights closer to paper hoping there was more writing in invisible ink. Alas, nothing.Tu ne sies rien,was a common phrase in France. Grandma use to say it to remind us of how vast life is and how we should be humble because we can never know everything about everythin

Calla's POVThe ruckus from work was beginning to get through to me. The fashion show was in just five days time and I knew how perilous it would be for Hault Fashion if we weren't properly ready. I had gone over the list of items we had to ship to France before the day and my hyper fixation on making everything perfect was becoming a little edgy."What!" I screamed as my eyes twitch maniacally."I wanted to know if you wanted anything. We're about to order lunch." The new intern whose head was poking through the half opened glass door of my office,asked. His lips pout forward as he stares at me and I just know he was judging so bad."No sorry, I don't need anything." My voice lowering as I realized I had shouted at him.He walks away and the door shut behind him.The weight of my body fell on my knees as I knelt down on the floor of my scattered office going over everything tiny detail like my life depended on it. Soon after, Julie came busting through the door and I cured to seat on

James' POV"There's a great chance I am traumatized from seeing dad's legs without his trousers on." I said. Vinora and I were catching up over the phone. I told her about everything, because she was my best friend. Her laughter burst through the phone as I told her about catching dad during one of his cheating escapades."What?!" a loud laughter came from the end of the phone. "Vino,in the US they call them pants not trousers" My sister, Vioner said."I haven't seen him since then,and the meeting's tomorrow." I said devastated. "I wonder why Mum puts up with him.""Probably Stockholm Syndrome... I'm so over them." She said."So what about the fashion girl? Are you guys together now?" "Yeah,but it's complicated.""What's complicated about it. It's official,it's not a situationship right?""No, we're dating." I sighed despite the tickling feeling I got from admitting she was mine and I was her's out loud. Yet,it felt like a crash waiting to happen. "It's just... there's so much going on

Calla's POV I haven't heard from James in days. It has been quiet--too quiet,it's almost like he had gone ghost. I had called about a hundred times but he's not picking up,I've left countless messages but still I'm left with no reply. I'm so mad that I can tear him to pieces.My half packed suitcase laid open on my bed as I stacked and unstack clothes in it. I was trying to hard to bury the raging feelings building up in my chest as I threw clothes out of my wardrobe onto my bed,the floor and literally anywhere in my bedroom,as they compile together like a thrift shop safe heaven. Finally,I had decided on clothes to take. 'Why will he do that!' my inner thought eludes out loud as I soliloquize. I stared at the mirror half way through my rant. 'woah,I look crazy.' I said,again. I wanna fight and I wanna scream at him for making feel this wayPathetic Calla. Poor desperate Calanthe. What was I thinking...I went downstairs to get a quick snack,I walked passed mum's bedroom door which

James' POVI could feel a heavy weight on my head as I'm being dragged into a room at the end of the passage. My eyes deemed as I struggled to stay awake, punching the air and trying to get loose of the security guard's grip on me. I pulled away from him with force as we got closer to the room. A part of my shirt began to feel loose only for me to look down to see a hole on shirt. My ripped shirt made my screams worse as the guards grip too became tighter. I wiggled,pushed,pull,and held on to furnitures,resisting to go through the doors of the room. My ripped shirt tore the more he dragged me almost freeing me from his grip. "Get in there!" He scolded and grabbed me by my collar and pushed me into the room. The room was dark,so I couldn't make sense of where I was.I rolled over the floor and laid flat,my legs spread apart,same with my hands extending into nothing and my head facing the ceiling. I laid there for a minute, making a snow angle mentally. My ripped shirt still covered in

Calla's POVThe smell of freshly baked pastries filled the air. Hot steams from cups of chocolate,tea, coffee forming a perfect blend for the sense of homeliness I was searching for since my arrival. Perhaps, I just wanted to be held,to be felt and kept warm. Protected from the void of the feeling of James slipping through my fingertips.Paris wasn't particularly cold in this season. The sun was bright but not scogging to leave outrageous sun burns on your skin or cause you to be dripping wet, melting sweat out of the pores of your skin.No,It was simple bright and beautiful.Julie and I sat under an umbrella in the bakery down the street of our hotel. She bites into the milky doughnuts on the table as it's condensed milk fillers pours on the floor almost staining her maroon dress. I sipped on my hot espresso,as I changed the song on my phone. "Ah-ah...I hate when this happens." she exclaimed,her face dancing on a fine line between being embarrassed and disgusted. I grabbed some pape

James' POVI walked into the living room. It smelled of medicine and tea. A mixture like that of melodic poetry sonnet from a eulogy--a fine contradiction.Mrs Grayson, looked almost petrified looking at me as I stood on the front porch."James?" she said confused."Hi,Mrs Grayson. I need to tell you something,do you mind if I come in." I asked as she immediately moved from the door to let me in."What's the problem?" she asked concerned as she slowly walked by me into the living room. She sat on the one sitter coach on the left and gestures towards the triple sitter coach beside me. I looked down on the coach where a big blanket was spread with nearly no space for me to seat,I moved the blanket just enough for me fit in on it."James,it's quiet a surprise for you to show up this early in the day.""I need to talk to you" I said fidgeting before spilling out the long held thought that have wandered my mind. "I have to tell her...""You can't tell her." She objected. Her eyes were dro

Calla's POV One thing they don't tell you about love is that it is a big suffocating pile of inconvenience. It's flawed,it's awkward,it's makes you do embarrassing dumb shit,it makes you vulnerable,it shows you the dark side of us and a whole load of things you'd never thought you'd do.We don't choose the ones we love,we only choose to pursue it or ignore our feelings until we're numb. Sometimes,we pursue it till it drives us insane or leave us stranded and burnt out.Isn't it romantic how the chaos can either ruin you or strengthen you? It was this very moment I began to think of our love story was the kind that did both. James Renault was the star crossed love of my life. Ours wasn't as epic as those writing in movies and romance novels, we were place in each other's lives as inconvenience. I burned for him until I was nothing but ashes. He...well,he met me at the worst time of my life when I was an inconvenience. The deal that brought us together was cursed to rip us apart.Now,

Wine Stained Lips Chapter Twenty Three
Calla's POV"Calla...Cals...wake up." I felt a tap on my shoulder and a bright light penetrating though my eyelids. I slowly open my eyes to the sun shining on my face and a figure standing in front of me."My head hurts like crazy..." I whined, pulling the blanket closer and burying my body completely under it."Get up...c'mon now" Julie said " WE'VE GOT FREE TICKETS TO SEE THE TOWER REMEMBER!" She said excitedly. I groaned in discomfort, rubbing my forehead to easy blood flow."Like the Eiffle Tower?" I questioned. "Yes,the Eiffle Tower." Julie replied. I couldn't see her face as she pace back and forth around the room, packing, dropping, opening, spraying, chewing God knows what. Then it came back to me,Halt fashion staffs were giving an all expenses paid trip around Paris momentos."Mnnhhh...my head hurts ,I don't think I can." I whined louder. Before I knew what was next,Julie jumped on top of the bed. She had on her hotel robes and her hair was curled up in hair rollers. She wor
Wine Stained Lips Chapter Twenty Two
James' POV The show was brilliant. Hault Fashion delivered beautiful pieces,more stakeholders began to invest on Renault Wine skyrocketing the stock market which made my father happy,which made him less irritable to everybody. Hault delivered a show that was jarring at the fingertips of blogs and magazines,while my father finally saw me fit as his heir since my plan worked.Yet, nothing felt right anymore. The void in me expanded and It left like I laid down on the tracks waiting for a train to run over me.The Deal between Calla and I was done,and so were we.I stood by the wine celler,forced to stay in the shadows as everyone else enjoys the party. It was already past 9pm and the after party was just staring. Most of the guests went back to their resistance to change while some stayed back. I've been driving around in the past hour with my sister, Vinora as we went to have diner together and I told her about what had happened. That was almost two hours ago before she dropped off a
