SIEVE can’t help but to stare blankly, smile from ear to ear and admire the messed-up role-play Blade made for her. He sensed her burning gaze and asked in a curious tone, "Why?" "The effort you put in....is just... Wow! The mask, the fake teeth, the fake mustache...." "...Don’t forget the voice changer," he intervenes. She nods in agreement to him, then continues. "The fat suit, this setup and you’re wearing contacts." She points to his eyes, as she cried with happiness and covered her face. He removes her hand from her face and smiled back at her, enjoying how shy she was. They stared at each other for a moment. He could see the tears in the corner of her eye and kiss them, then hug her tightly. "Thank you," she mumbles under her breath as she smiles faintly. "I'm going to miss this, I wish I could keep her longer." He thought to himself. His face showed a tinge of sorrow. Meanwhile, she felt tranquil, loved and the scene was just so perfect. The light breeze of the wind, stars

IN THE afternoon, he asked her if she wanted to go fishing for their dinner. She enthusiastically agreed and told him that she'd catch a bigger fish than him. After 2 hours of fishing, they caught a lot of fish but let go of the small ones and competed in getting the biggest one. In the end, they ended up with two Largemouth Bass and lay them side by side. He caught the bigger Bass, and he couldn’t stop annoying her about it. "Nice try my little one, but I'm better than you in everything," he says mockingly. "Stop calling me that! My dad doesn't even call me that." She responds, clearly not enjoying his playful remarks. He moved towards her, tucked the hair behind her ear, held her chin upward, then tilted his head towards her. "Well, I'm the daddy that you can sleep with, and you are my little one that I can use and abuse." He says while playfully booping her nose. **** By six o’clock in the evening she finished cooking the sweet and sour Largemouth Bass. While eating, she felt u

GEORGE personally presented the finished project to Albert, and the latter was very pleased with the outcome. After a week, he signed a partnership with Caldwell Incorporated and, as he promised, appointed Lucius Vaughn as his Managing Director, who would have an office inside Caldwell Incorporated together with his team. Everything that needs Ripley International’s approval will go through Lucius and his team. George promised the whole 15th floor to them. Soon his team moved to C.I. and they occupied the 15th floor, but there were so few of them in the team, that the floor looked like a ghost town. Soon, George added a few people from C. I to occupy the floor with them; a few employees also moved from C. I to R. I, under Lucius, since their partnership is more of a soft merging. Now, Albert owns parts of the C. I around 10%, making him a major investor, plus the partnership of their brands giving R. I, the leverage to voice anything they want. Meanwhile, C. I enjoy the R. I’s inter

JOHN's eyes widened and his mouth slightly ajar in surprise at what he heard. In an eager voice, he couldn’t help but ask, “When?” “Where?” “How?” He felt confused thinking if Sieve was someone from the office. He looked at Lucian intently, waiting for his response. “You met him at the Imperial Mall,” he declares while drinking another shot, drowning his lonesome with vodka. John recollects all the times he went to the Imperial Mall with him and all the people he met, unable to think which one was Sieve. “Tall blonde woman with green eyes,” he says to himself, assuming what she looks like. Like every other girl Lucian sleeps with. “Sometimes they have blue eyes or light brown hair,” he whispers to himself as he touches his chin, lost in his thoughts. He sees how hard John tries to reminisce about figuring out when he met her. Soon Lucian gives in and explains how and when he met Sieve. “You met her by accident 4 months ago, when I invited you for dinner with Viv. She’s the bag

ALTHOUGH Lucian swore to reinvent himself and stop his series of one-night stands, he still goes out for a drink sometimes with John and Vivian. However, tonight he was alone in the Boost Club. He sat in the bar front staring at the football game that was being televised. All his concentration was on the game, and he did not notice when a woman sat beside him. Seeing that he was preoccupied, the woman then said in a low, alluring soft voice, "It’s been a while. How are you?" Her familiar voice caught his attention and he immediately glanced at the person beside him. "Malena?" He says with coldness in his tone and gaze. "You’re looking at me as if I’m a stranger." She says while staring down and feeling aggrieved. "What are you doing here?" He asks. She slowly moves her hand to him, then says, "I want to talk to you." He heaves deeply then closes his eyes, "Now is not the time, I want to be alone with my thoughts." He says with exhaustion in every word. "But..." Her voice was weak
