Louella•••••••••• Seth pecked my neck from behind. Like always, I shivered at his touch. It was always nice when my body reacted this way. That was proof that I liked my great attraction towards him.  "Did you enjoy your food?" He asked.  I giggled when his breath hitched the helix of my ear. "Kind of. But, um, the steak wasn't enough." "You like meat a lot?" He inquired.  I nodded. "Sort of. As long as it's got little fat, I'm okay with it. Fat's pretty dangerous to one's health." He curled his arms around me, exhaled. "So, what should we do today? Go to the beach?" "Hm… nice suggestion. But, um, I'd prefer we went to the amusement park or something." I pursed my lips, fretting my eyelashes.  "You th

Probably because of how I had scolded Rachel yesterday, she hardly said anything to me. She looked kind of weary. She really never wore heavy makeup, but at least, she'd wear a little. But now, she wasn't wearing any makeup. She only looked so, so depressed. I hoped I hadn't done something really terrible to her.  "Are the files complete?" I didn't want her to notice I was staring at her, so I just turned to my laptop.  "Yes, they are." Her voice was low. Jeez, what was happening to her?  I was kind of worried, but if I apologized to her or asked her what was wrong with her, she'd feel too important. That wasn't a bad thing, but well, I needed her to know she was like the other workers.  I sighed. "Okay. So, send the other files as soon as possible." "Okay." She still wasn't staring at me. She looked extremely depressed.  I guessed I

 Louella•••••••••• Goodness knew why Erin was here. I had told her to leave because I needed to stay alone, and think of the next step to take in my life. After that devastating betrayal from Seth, all I wanted to do was to work. Nothing else.  Erin took a piece of the pizza she had in her plate, ate it, and did the "yum-yum" sound as she chewed it hard, probably trying to get my attention.  I rolled my eyes. "Can you just leave? I'm sorry. I don't wanna seem rude, but seriously, I don't feel like having anyone here." "Have you really been doubting Seth?" She asked.  I gave her a sideways glance, resumed arranging my bed. "Yeah, duh. I said it already. Why asking again?" "I don't think that's nice." She grabbed the stool beside the bed, sat

Louella•••••••••• It had been a while since I had seen mom. She hardly came over here, since she had decided to settle in Canada, claiming that the place was peaceful for an oldie like her. Well, that wasn't a big deal. After all, she was happy. That was the point.  "I can't believe you and Seth ended up falling in love. It feels so weird, you know?" She took a bite of her onion and pepper sandwich, ate it like a calm person. "I'm glad about it. I was really worried you'll never fall in love." "Well, all thanks to Seth for making me fall for him." I giggled.  "This is such a miracle." She winked at me.  I rolled my eyes, and just kept staring at her.  "So, how's work?" She asked. Oh, I hadn't told her about dad and his family.  I shook my head slowly. "Work

She was the last person I would expect this from. Rachel was more like the real sister I never had. What had I done to deserve this betrayal? Was it a crime for me to love someone? I didn't know how to react to this. I just kept staring at them, allowing the tears to leave my eyes. I was weeping hard, whimpering in a low tone. What would I do next? This time around, I was assured that Seth was bad. He was cheating on me. I knew it. My doubts weren't false after all.  Wait, Rachel was pregnant. Was her baby… Seth's child? After I had discovered that she was pregnant, she and I hadn't been on good terms. We weren't so close anymore. Could this be the reason for that? Frustrated, running crazy, extremely furious, I scanned my eyes through the room, in search of something to hit against their heads. In a short while, I found a glass bottle on the bedside table. I grabbed it, and squeezed it in my hand. Of course,
