Chapter 1

Melanies’s Point Of ViewI woke up due to the noises coming from the outside as well as the hot air around. I remember turning on the electric fan before I went to bed. I irritatedly scratched the back of my neck and went towards the window to open it for some air. This is not new to me. Everytime I went back from my night shift, people are starting to wake up and do their businesses. Well, I can’t complain. I’m just renting in an apartment which I can say, is located on squaters area.Instead of going back to bed, I just went straight to the bathroom and prepared myself for my another work. I only slept for three hours, what a healthy sleeping routine.“Melanie, it’s still early for your next job.” I turned my gaze to Manang Rosing when she greeted me while climbing down stairs. I just finished preparing myself.“I ca

Chapter 2

Akihiro’s Point Of ViewThe loud music echoed the whole bar as the people became more wild and rough. I took a sip from my glass of Martini while looking down the dance floor from the VIP room on the second floor. Many pretty girls are wearing tight fitted mini dress. “Like the view?” Zyrex teasingly asked, my colleague.“Just the common sight,” I boringly answered.Night life was always been the same for me. Looking at those liberated girls, flirt with them, and make-out. Nothing new.“How about that sexy lady on the counter? She’s been looking at you for some minutes already.” I looked at the counter and saw a girl sipping her drink then licked the tip of the glass.I shrugged my shoulder and raised my glass at her. She seductively smiled after what I did. I took off

Chapter 3

Melanie's Point Of ViewAs the sun showers heat to everyone, my blood also boils whenever I think of what that impostor have said and done! He’s a scumbag. He is a total trash that needed to be dumped.“Hey, do you have any issue on that rag?”My thought was disrupted because of Jazon’s voice. I looked down the rag I am holding while wiping the table, it was crumpled.“You just made it worst.”“What? Me? What did I do?” he confusingly asked.“Showing your face.” I brought my cleaning tools and head towards the backdoor.After he said those, the man in the hospital, my mind literally stopped functioning for a second. I was dumbfounded and don’t know what to react and say. And because I am to naive about anything related to surrogacy, I agreed. That earned me a smirk from him.He stand so proud and led the way towards the closed

Chapter 4

I hardly pulled out the cotton on its container as well as the alcohol. I harshly took his arm and put it on the countertop. If it weren’t because of Ketish’s wish, I will not apply first aid on him. “Why are you mad?” he asked as if he did nothing wrong. “Nothing.” I pushed the cotton on his wound and showers the alcohol in it. “Aw, careful. That hurts,” he complaint. “Good for you,” I murmured. “You know what, instead of cursing me, why wouldn't you thank me?” “Are you high? I will thank you? For what? For making me feel embarrassed and less?” I angrily aswered, reffering to what he did on the hospital. “My apologies. I didn’t know you’ll agree,” he reasoned out. “Taking advantage to those people who had less knowledge, huh?” I pulled out the cotton and started cleaning the side of the

Chapter 5

I arrived at the store five minutes before my shift. It’s only me, Janina; the other cashier, and the security guard. I wanted to close my eyes and drift into slumber. I wish I could meet my doppelganger and take over my work. Pft, that’s an insane thought. “Sleepy?” I aksed Janina when I saw her eyelids falling down. She chuckled and shook her head. “Kind of. My new work is stressing me, honestly.” “Is that a heavy workload? You should have quit. There are still many jobs out there,” I said. I went to a table and clean the mess the customer left. “I can’t complain, they pay high.” “Well, I guess we can’t say no to money,” I joked. Janina is a single mother and she’s been working and studying at the same time. She ju

Chapter 6

CHAPTER 6Intense stare, blank facial expression, lips in thin line, and boiling blood. My emotions are mixed up while looking at his playful grin plastered on his face. That never left everytime I see him. “So, you happen to save my brother when he humiliated you at the bar.” “I’m not heartless as you thought I am.”“Really? Then why are you acting like one to me?” he dramatically asked.I rolled my eyes. He is more dramatic than a woman.“Well, you're a jerk.”“My brother's a jerk,” he added. “You’re the jerkest jerk, stop bothering.”I faced my body infront of his brother's room door. The doctor is still there. We are waiting for its news.“A handsome jerk,” he whispered then followed by a chuckle. Jeez, this man is creepy.
