Victor was about to follow behind when Marisa pulled him back. "Give her a pregnancy test; I think I know what's wrong with her" "You sure?" Victor asked. Marisa winked. "Positive!" ___________________________________________ "Okay are you punks ready?" Arjay asked them. Edmund, Stephene, Zhul, Gerand, Kent, Bobby, Adrian, Marison and Brix were all dressed in black hiding behind a huge rock not very far from a large white mansion aka Claveria Cagayan. "I don't know boss" Edmund said. "I mean we came up with the plan in a matter of hours, why couldn't we have tried to prepare a bit more"

Mouth agape, he looked frozen in place, cemented to the ground. All he could do was watch me walk away. Behind him, Betty stepped forward, unaware of what had just happened. She shoved him, her tone sharp and accusing. “What the hell’s wrong with you? Did you get the money or not? How could you just let her walk away like that?” At last, Leo’s shame and rage boiled over. It was as if someone had flipped a switch before he exploded and slapped Betty. “Are you blind? Didn’t you see what happened just now?

Austen gives my shoulder a firm squeeze before I head down to met Em. She’s waiting for me. I turn the TV projector on and hook up my phone. Finding her favourite episodes and the ones with the motivating moments and cue them up. Season 11 Episode 14 - “Only freaking superheroes” The first one of course. Season 7 Episode 7 - “Screw beautiful I’m brilliant.” Japril’s wedding. Season 4 Episode 15 - “Have some fire. Be unstoppable. Be a force of nature.” The episode Arizona gives the residents her peds speech - “These are the tiny humans…”

With each crying spell, I lost some of the anticipation I had for our wedding—and my love for Zachary as well. Now, after the seventh time, I no longer felt any love for him. My heart was empty, but I didn't feel sad about it. Something new would always come along to fill it up. After roughly wiping my tears away, I pulled out my phone and called Dr. Ezekiel Lane, my former superior. "Dr. Lane, it's about that medical relief program you mentioned. I'm calling to tell you that I'm willing to join the team."

POV Millie I take the piece of white paper out of the envelope, the page is filled with black ink numbered 1-20 of things about himself. I take a deep breath in and deeper one out and start reading number one. 1. Until you, Julian was my only true friend 2. I didn’t take the Colombia deal even though it was offered 3. I secretly wished my mom would’ve denied the $25,000 to stay in my life 4. I hate the business I’m in but it’s all I’ve ever known

When I woke up, I stretched lazily before the comments appeared in my vision again: [Whoa, talk about bloody! There's nothing scarier than human nature in the apocalypse!] [Yeah, it really magnifies the darkness of humanity…] [To think he could even do that to his own parents… what an animal!] [What a selfish scum! He could do anything for a mouthful of food!] I turned on the surveillance and saw Charles and his parents fighting each other, bloodied and bruised, all over a single pack of instant noodles. "You old hag! Why are you fighting me for this food when you've got cancer?"

My boyfriend never stayed up late, yet he pulled an all-nighter just to watch the sunrise with my best friend. He insisted it was for work and told me to stop overthinking it. Felix Grant and I had been together for seven years, but I never knew where I stood with him. I stuck with him when he had nothing and helped him build his company from scratch. But in all those years, he'd never spent more than a hundred dollars on a gift for me. He said having money didn't mean we should start wasting it. So I limited myself to less than a thousand dollars a month. Then he spent a fortune at an auction on a necklace just to make Gracie smile. My eyes stung with anger. "Lixi, how is this fair?" He fro

Yet, Gavin's voice still rang out from its speakers. "Nonsense! That's clearly nonsense! Didn't you tell our business partners that those are only baseless rumors?" Harvey bellowed while on all fours, hoping to find a shred of hope to ease his misery. "I did say that, Mr. Jepson. However, our business partners received a document with solid proof that you don't have power of attorney over Sallow Group. That's why I was unable to do anything." I was surprised to hear a helpless but firm tone from the phone. It seemed Gavin had already given up and was letting things fall apart.

He did not trust me after seven years together. The clock on the wall struck three. It was the last day of my bet with Bailey. It was also the date that Jeremy had planned to propose to me.

He slammed the desk and barked, "Enough! This ends here. Go to orientation camp and stop causing trouble." I walked out with anger burning in my chest. … That afternoon's orientation camp drill took place under a scorching sun. The field felt like a giant steamer. My skin reacted badly to prolonged exposure, so I wore the sun-protection jacket my father had prepared for me.
