Expecting Better Novels & Stories

Nothing was going to come in, and if it did, it was not going to get beyond us. "So, tomorrow is going to be great," I replied as I looked across at him. "And the very next day... that'll be the day. The one we've been yearning for since we first learned about the curative treatment." Justine gave a nod. “I know. It's strange, but I'd come to the point where I simply acknowledged that this was how our lives will be. We were always peering over our shoulders, expecting the other slipper to collapse. I never imagined we'd have the opportunity to genuinely make things better, yet here we are. Over the next day or two, history will be made. I'm curious what will go awry."

she said coldly and bothered. "Yes Miss Grey" she replied. I walked out and the other's were looking disappointed when they heard the news. I walked slowly behind them and rode the elevator together. I can't believe I'm just going be a damn PA to that woman. By the looks and attitude of her, I could tell she's rude, moody and cocky. Well at least I'll be busy working no time to think and cried about Alex or reminder of that night with that stranger. I think I'm going to be sick just by remembering sleeping with a stranger. What if he has STDs or anything? Yuck!!!! "Taxi!!" I called out

I only hoped fate was going to play a better game this time around. *** (Don't forget to drop your comments/reviews. Don't be a ghost reader. 😉)

I just laid there and stiffened hearing the voices. “The house is amazing and I wish Tina was able to see it. But then you both got time to talk. She should have come with us here to continue to talk. There must be so much to talk, right? And I am glad you are buying a new house suitable for you instead of living in this small one.” I can hear his Grandma’s voice and her words are digging the knife more. “This is more than I deserve with the job details because I am like anyone of my company.” James reply made me smile but I pushed it away.

The word I know to lessen the tension but they laughed at me. "There's a better word yous should say other than sorry because your sorry won't solve anything. The disaster you created is still here. And by the way, I almost forgot to tell you." He stared at me checking how curious I am to what is he going to say. I'm curious about everything right now. I don't care if it's small or big that is! I wanted to know how the hell it ended like this.

They say do not raise expectations so that in the end, you won't get hurt when the outcome did not come as you expected it to be. This is such an old saying, but even these days, it is still applicable in every circumstance. Even when the analysis is still not done, we could see that just like the first one, we won't get anything about this UVirus. Still, we expected something. In the end, we were all disappointed to see that the result does not make sense at all.

"So what if I did? Jayden, it's time you faced reality. This isn't about revenge. I married Charles because I like him. In every single way, he's a better man than you."

I just do not want to hope too much on you and at the end of the day you go ahead and shatter my expectations. It wouldn't work.” I replied. “I would not be able to bounce back from it so it's better that I do not hear how I am the best person and the world and all that flattery.” He shook his head in disagreement yet refused to say a word. “I'm glad that you do not rely on empty words.
