Semua Bab Taming The Playboy: Bab 1 - Bab 10

Careful where I stepped, trying not to slip on spilled drinks or vomit, I trudged up the stairs—anything to get away from the chaotic mess happening downstairs....I had to find Derek. Had to...But navigating this mansion felt like walking through a maze built by a drunk architect. Every hallway looked the same, every door I opened revealed another pair of lovers tangled together, and my irritation kept climbing with every step.So lost in thought, I didn’t notice the couple aggressively making out in front of me until I crashed into them. We all tumbled to the floor."I'm so sorry. I didn't see…"I froze when I realized they didn’t give a damn that they’d toppled over. If anything, my falling on them only seemed to… increase their pleasure....Great. Just great....I pushed myself up, wiped my palms on my jeans, and continued my mission, opening doors one after the other. Each room was filled with more lovers, whom I quickly backed away from. Door after door, room after room, until f

BACON, BUTTERFLIES & BOY BEHIND THE COUNTERThe smell of bacon and fresh coffee drifted through the air like a warm hug, and my stomach growled. Hunger pangs. Steve caught my eye from behind the counter and waved, flashing that smile that showed off the tiny dimple in his right cheek. Oh, what that dimple does to my heart, brain, and oxygen levels. Sunrise Café’s unofficial mascot. Or temptation. Same difference.He had probably worked here even before I set foot in Outstanding Heights College, but he was the first friend I made when I arrived. And honestly? To this day, it still shocks me that someone like him chose to talk to someone like me. He was all dark intensity and athletic symmetry, short spiked hair, broad shoulders, lean muscle. While I was… well, me. Soft. Curvy. “Too much” in all the places that magazines told girls to be “less” in. Guys like him usually hung around slim girls with legs for days and curves shaped by Photoshop, not reality.But our first conversation had

Of all the places in the world for Amy to pick from, she chose this place, Sunrise Cafe, today of all days. Why? She messaged me on my way to the city library we normally met for our lessons to change the venue. I've been a regular for what, two years, almost three years and I bounced in forgetting it was 'The Sunrise cafe' with a certain hottie for a worker called Steve? I only remembered when I stepped into the place and my eyes landed on him at the counter, sexy as hell talking to a customer. Why didn't I realise sooner? Gosh Nadia, for a straight A student, you are so dumb. You've been a regular at this place and you didn't remember your super crush works here? How dumber could you get? Our near kiss today put me on my toes.   …I can't let him see me. I'll just call Amy once I make it out the door to cancel. An outing with girls wouldn't be such a bad idea….  

Friday came in a flash. I had a date with Steve and honestly I had no idea what I should wear. What does one wear on a first date? With  a frustrated sigh I picked out a chiffon top and a blue Jean to go with it which just made me look too casual. I tried on a blue dress which only made my eyes look too big and worst I wasn't feeling myself in it. Funny. This used to be favourite dress. I threw it on the bed and searched again. The next dress I tried on just made me laugh. I was really loosing it. Where was Berth when I needed her most? That's right, out on a date. It was really date night today. 6pm is around the corner and I still haven't decided what to wear. Giving up on my fashion sense, I called Patricia, another perfect person for this — a fashion goddess. Few minutes later, someone knocked at my door. I was about to tie a robe since I was buck naked when Patricia just barged in, carrying so many shopping bags.   ...Leave it to her to just ba

"He did what?" Patricia eyebrows rose into her bangs."You heard me right Patricia, he left." I paced around Patricia's room, worry making it unable for me to sit still."He wasn't supposed to spend the night with you, was he?" she asked"No he wasn't… Maybe I wanted him to and…ugh, I don't know okay? He just ran away. That's what I know.""Ran away? I doubt that. I mean, why would he? I did the whole makeover so I know you looked superb," She reasoned as she drew some designs on her notepad. "And I bet you are not the clingy type guys hate." "Oh, I don't know. Just leave me alone girl." I sat on the sofa beside the window, tucking my legs underneath my butt."Where's Kathy?" May asked as if just noticing her absence.The door opened and Katherine came in. "Freshly made and delicious biscuits for all," she announced.Katherine came in with a plate of hot and delicious biscuits Patricia's mum made for us as was our tradition whenever we had sleepovers at her parent's home every weekend
