Music recommendation: Pain’s My Only Home by Zevia__Josephine trailed her fingers on the frame and a sad smile appeared on her lips. It has been twenty five years, yet she still feels that longing. Here she was, sitting in her room, alone and remembering all the things she went through. She recalled how she wanted her life to be twenty five years ago, when she still had her mother, and she smiled at the thought of how she made it this far without her.“Honestly mother,” Josephine spoke softly, “I wish you never left.”Even though the announcement of the death of her mother was still something she couldn’t quite accept like that, she wished she at least had the chance to bid her goodbye. If only someone up there could search her inner feelings, if only the universe could hear her, then she would wish that all that happened to her was a dream, and none of them were real. But sadly, it was only the reality.When she heard the door to the apartment open and close, she knew Lucas was bac

The room fell dead silent as they all stared at Mrs. Lewis and then at Josephine, who was also as confused as them. At that moment, Maya burst into a sudden laugh before her expression changed to that of someone who is miserable. “Mother,” she called, “are you saying that Josephine’s mother owns the company?”“Yes,” Mrs. Lewis responded.“How?” she went further to ask.“You want to know how?” Mrs. Lewis asked and then she went ahead to say, “I never owned anything.”“Well that doesn’t make sense, mom,” Maya said on the verge of tears and she sniffed. “You have a company and we both know it. So why are you denying that? Is it because you just want to put her above me?” she point her fingers at Josephine.“I only just said the truth, believe it or not,” Mrs. Lewis said and Josephine could sense the pain in her voice. “I once had a company, yes! But that was not until your father took it away from me.”Maya gasped and said to her, “Why do you have to bring father to this? He did nothing

Josephine planted her lips on his and she kissed it tenderly, subtly moving her lips and savoring the feeling. The moment feels different, and she knows it for sure. It wasn’t because of the pains she had felt earlier and she wasn’t using him to ease herself. It was about how she really feels this time. She can no longer pretend that she doesn’t love him; that she doesn’t care about him or want him. And maybe it was the best thing she did to let him know about it now before it was too late.However, Lucas didn’t give her that much satisfaction as she needed. She needed him to kiss her back, passionately, like he did back at the wedding, but he was putting his guard on and controlling his kisses.When his sharp fangs grazed her lips, he quickly pulled away but Josephine didn’t want to stop. She doesn’t care if he takes more than enough of her blood and leave her unconscious. All she wants was him and she doesn’t care what comes after. She pulled him back and took his lips in hers again

Josephine woke up, feeling sober and she sat up in the bed. She looked around the room she was in and touched the sheets before realization dawned on her and everything suddenly came rushing back to her. She covered her face with her palms and then pushed it up into her hairs before a sigh escaped from her lips. Pushing the sheet away from her body, she got out of bed and wore the slippers that was placed aside for her and she moved her feet towards the door before stepping out. Gabriel, who was busy explaining to Matilda what Lucas had told him last night, suddenly stopped talking when he heard the approaching footsteps and the both of them looked towards the direction to see Josephine. Josephine halted and looked at the both of them before feeling embarrassed.“I’m sorry,” she apologized to them with her head down, feeling guilty for making them worry about her.They both stood up and Matilda went to her. “Why are you apologizing when you did nothing wrong?” she said and led her to

The sun set on the horizon, signifying the start of a new day and a new week. People and vehicles already took over the streets, heading towards their various destinations to start the day’s work. Maya already stepped out of her comfort zone to go job hunting as Brian said, but she had another motive, and it was to go to her friend’s place instead. Josephine on the other hand, went to meet Candice to start another work given by a client of hers. Before leaving Gabriel’s apartment that morning, she already informed the two of them that she won’t be returning back and instead, she would go to Mrs. Lewis place from work.Lucas Gray stepped down from his car and walked inside the company in his usual cold demeanor. The staffs on that floor greeted him but he simply just ignored them and walked inside the elevator. On getting to his office, he opened the door and went inside to sit on his chair to prepare for the day’s work. Already, there are files packed on his table for him to review a
