"Zaria! Dear, are you in here?" Madam Anderson was uncomfortable here but she wanted to save her children.As she started moving forward and forward, she saw a black box lying on the ground along with a black phone. She was going to ignore it, but the phone and familiar writing on the card caught her eye. It belonged to Zaria Smith.It was her Ria's writing! She quickly picked it up and saw it was the gift card for her son. That meant Zaria and Elian must be here. "Ria, child! Where are you?" "Ria, are you here?" In the room, the girl kept sobbing until her throat became dry. She had her head in the lap and was crouching to the cold ground. Upon hearing a familiar voice, she raised her head. She looked pale and weak, her eyes red and swollen.She should not have come here in the first place giving

"Hey, Zaria. Um, I just want to.. you know, this.. er, I.. please keep this," A man in his early twenties hurriedly said and ran like a mouse who had got the cheese in its mouth with a cat chasing after him when he handed over the thing he had intended to give. Zaria sighed. She was getting tired of it. It was the third time already this week, and this did not feel like he would stop anytime soon. People had started to talk about it.She had to make it clear that she was not looking for any sort of a relationship. Her heart only belonged to her childhood sweetheart."The poor guy is trying so hard to win your heart. Why don't you give him the chance? Is your heart actually made of a real steel?" Janice Sartell, the woman who worked with Zaria on the same office desk, chirped. She was always astounded seeing lots of suitors Zaria had. Considering how reclusive and sometimes arr

He was.. back?He had returned?"Mom, Dad."He stood there with a small smile on his face, his demeanour and posture; reserved and poised like a gentleman making her heart beat faster.All that boyish looks he once had turned to something more masculine, giving out his mature supplemental charms of late twenties further. His features had become more sharp and prominent. He really looked like a young version of John Anderson now.With his black hair, he was wearing a turtleneck grey sweater and a black coat which was draped on his shoulders. It suited him with his perfect height of 6'2. Actually, whatever he wore, he sparkled.She gulped. She was an adult who was in her early twenties. Still, her hormones were going haywire making her go crazy.She had not forgotten that night. Zaria felt her cheeks heat

"What happened that time?" Asked Elizabeth Jones. "Nothing." Zaria Smith immediately shook her head. "A liar's nose gets bigger when he lies." Hearing Lisa's words, Zaria touched her nose subconsciously and froze when she realised what she had done. Lisa smirked. "Still not telling me?""I delivered the tea to his room this morning." She did not say his name but Lisa understood it. Zaria did not say or explain much as she was embarrassed but Lisa took the hint.She knew Ria better than herself.Something must have had happened between the both this morning which made her blush like this.Sighed, Lisa said teasingly, "This got you blushing? You're pretty weak to his charms, Ria. I thought you were strong." "I'm not weak. It's just..." "You can't help it." Lisa finished Zaria S

Master Anderson was talking to some of his business partners when someone said suddenly, "Long time no see, Anderson." He turned around and narrowed his eyes looking at the man in front of him, "Indeed, Williams." The man smirked and commented, "Now that you are officially retiring and handing over your business to your son, I must say you have become quite an old man having white hair. How could my sweet Mia bear to see you, an old man, everyday?" John Anderson noticed how he stressed on the word 'Old man' two times straight with him calling his wife Mia sweet with an addition of 'my'. Hearing this, Master Anderson's right eye twitched looking at his arch-enemy. Only Archer Williams could make his blood boil in this world.  This Archer Williams had always annoyed him. From the time they were in their early twenties, he had always competed with him in everything. Whether it be love or business.&
