I stepped backward when I heard footsteps getting close to the door. My heart went racing again.I continued walking backwards until there's no more room left to move. I almost tripped over when my legs hit the bedside table near a closed glass window.I was enveloped by silence for a moment. Until the wooden door slowly opened. I couldn't clearly see who entered. It was only a silhouette of a big-built body of a man with above the shoulder hair length.From the sight, my gut told me that it was him… again.My mouth went half open. The light outside the door entered the room. He was just standing on the open door.I felt my knees become weak when he was facing straight at my direction. I was holding tight on the edge of the bedside table, trying to fight for my life.“W-What do you want f-from me this time?” I asked in an obviously frightened tone.I flinched when he stepped forward and closed the door. Now, there's only two of us inside this dark room.I felt intimidated by him. I co

“Please, enjoy your dinner.” The maid said and then went on the corner and watched us.There were also other maids beside her watching us.The man next to me motioned so I turned to him.He suddenly smiled at me. Too much joy is visible in his beautiful eyes.“Let’s eat, hon.” He uttered.I felt awkward. He is really getting used at calling me ‘hon’. I looked at the food in front of us.“There’s a lot of them.” I said, almost a whisper.A sly smile formed his lips. “I couldn’t think of something you wanted to eat so I just picked all your favorite.” He replied.My favorite? I don’t even know what food are they or what are their names. I see too much green leaves. Do I look like a vegetarian? No matter how I become sick of chicken, I will still eat it.I didn’t said a comment on his words. He picked a food and put it on his plate. I also did the same.When I first put a small amount of food on my mouth, I looked at the maids silently waching us.“Uhm…” I turned to him and he waited for

I was the happiest person alive when I finally entered inside our apartment. It was all dark inside. Probably because Alliyah is still at work.I throw my bag on our mini couch and went on top of my bed. Gosh! I miss this cheap and small bed.I closed my eyes and waited for me to fall asleep. I could hear the sound from the people and cars outside. I prefer this kind of place than the deafening silence of his penthouse.After a few minutes of just laying on my bed staring at the ceiling, the door suddenly opened. I turned to that direction.The light went on and I saw the tired face of Alliyah. Her makeup are ruined. She looks like she got into a fight or something considering also her messy hair.She closed the door and took off her coat. She's only wearing a sport's bra and cycling shorts. If I just didn't know her, I would thought she came out from the gym. They probably did a little role play tonight.She looks drained and tired that she didn't notice me and just went straight to

My day continued normally. I went to school, listened to my professors' endless discussion, had my lunch with Alliyah, and when my last class in the afternoon came, I started getting anxious.Alliyah and I parted ways.I went to the ladies' comfort room and fixed my messy hair and the ruined collar of my uniform. On Mondays, we are obliged to wear our uniforms.I tied my hair in a bun and looked at myself in the mirror. I looked pale. But, I always looked like this and it's no big deal.I held tight on my backpack's slings and let out a deep breath.“This is it!” I said to myself before leaving the comfort room.The meeting place was only a five minutes walk from here.I continued walking and walking until I finally reached the entrance door of the small library, my heart's beat went faster again.This is not really normal. That man is going to give me heart problems.I let out a deep breath before I pushed open the door. The bell rang which caught the attention of the old man who own

My last class finished at nine p.m. Just after I got out of the school campus, my phone beeped.A message from Mr. Anonymous came. It states about the address of his condo and the whereabouts of his key and the passcode.He also said that he will be home during the dawn.I wonder what he is still doing at this hour. Maybe he is doing his monkey business again.As long as he won’t be there while I clean, I’m safe. And anyways, why would he want me to clean his condo at this hour?I received no answer so I just hailed a taxi and told the driver the address.“Do you live in that building, ma’am?” The old man who’s driving asked.“No, someone I know lives there.” I replied and smiled.He nodded his head. “Ahh! I was just wondering. I thought you were the one who lived there.”“Uhm… Why did you ask though?”“Well, people who live in that place mostly prefer to use their own luxury cars rather than riding a cheap taxi. I misunderstood you.” He then followed with a short laugh.“Ahh! Well, I
