Chapter 12  “Holy...Holy...What happened to your eyes darling? Did some bees sting your eyeball or something?” Ruth announced her arrival with her dramatic gasp when she sees me munching apples perched on my kitchen counter.  “Morning Darling' How ya doin’?”  I greeted, trying to sound casual like I haven't been crying buckets last night. She pranced towards me in record time, tilting my face with her fingers towards her to get a better view of my face. “Meredith... Shouldn't you be worried about your face? It's... concerning” She echoed in a worried tone.  “Mhh Pppmmm…dramatic.” Was my reply with my mouth full. She rolled her eyes and bit out “I am not being dramatic, I just need to know

Chapter 14Getting my brother to come to the city is a lot harder than I had anticipated. He's being the usual douche bag by rejecting my calls even after I had called him more times than I could count and when he did, he answered with his usual  arrogant tone, making me want to tear his head open and inspect, to see what composed of his brain(Possibly kgs of dried dog poo), I threatened to crush his balls if he didn't come to meet me. So, here I am waiting for my dear brother.  I watched him stroll lazily into the coffee shop and heads turned in his direction, mostly the opposite gender. I watched their eyes glow up and their faces showing interest at the sight of my brother strolling past them. That's the thing about my brother, girls love him despite his arrogant behaviour and his ego which is larger than his head. I rolled my eyes in

Chapter 16 Two days later, Jonathan moved into my small apartment along with his female cat(Which Ruth was overly ecstatic about because She believes that her cat can get some action when brought together). I made sure to roll my eyes over her enthusiasm. However, One thing which made me worry is how Ruth drools over my brother rather openly and does not bother to hide her flirting but I couldn't say the same for my dear Brother who had started working in the restaurant nearby my apartment, today. As much as I worry about the extra electricity bills, water bills, and food expenses, the tiny good part of me was content at seeing my brother finally coming to his senses. Currently, Jonathan and I are sitting on my sofa watching Disney channels like the old times, munching on pizza and sipping coke from the bottle. The two of us were too lazy to get glasses after the long day we both had but this moment, it's golden and a great distraction from my issue( that is my heart.) L

 Chapter 18 Our Kiss doesn't last as long as I had hoped. We are interrupted by banging and cursing from the other side of the door. Gray doesn't let go of me even after I tried to push him away. He was relentless and held me still to his chest until the banging stopped and we heard the sounds of feet walking away. “Do you want to come to my place tonight?” He asked me, his blue orbs trying to figure me out. I wanted to lash at him, and slap his cheek at his suggestion but something about his gaze told me that he wasn't expecting sex but I don't make it easy for him. “Why Would I come to your place?” I asked, instead. He looked almost embarrassed at my question but hid it quickly behind his hard facade. “Because I want you to be there.” That seals the deal. Just a simple, affectionate word from him, and I was following him when he snagged me away from the bathroom and towards his car. Gray tried to open the door next to the

Chapter 20 Shit! shit! Shit! I realized that I didn't live alone anymore only When Gray dropped me at my apartment. How irresponsible of me to completely forget about my dear brother!? I only hope he didn't notice, which is wishful thinking. Of Course, He would notice! Slowly, I tiptoe inside my apartment, shutting the door. When I turned back, I screamed in horror seeing Ruth and Jonathan standing in the living room with arms folded in front of their chest. Ruth smiled evilly but Jonathan looked angry and his glare made me want to run out of my place. Anywhere that wasn't within his reach. “WHERE…THE …FUCK …HAVE…YOU…BEEN!?” Okay, I take back my words. He's in his maniac mode. The only time he has ever been this angry is when our old neighbor stole his puppy. The image of my old neighbor's bloody nose flashed in my head at that moment. “Get in here!” He roared at me. It didn't take seconds for me to scramble towards him.“I am so
