Sylvia Intermezzo Novels & Stories

"Sylvia." I gasped and took a step back. "How dare you f*cking steal Lorenzo from me? I had the perfect plan to make him see he loved me and I was the only woman worthy to be by his side. He was going to ask me to be his girlfriend, then his wife, and I was going to become Mrs Raimondo. We were going to have three children: a beautiful girl that looked like me and two boys that looked like him. Our life was going to be perfect, and we would live happily ever after, but you f*cking burnt my future to the ground." Sylvia ranted as she paced up and down the small room, flaring the knife in the air.

Steve smiled at her unconscious coquettish action. “But I want to taste them now.” Carla pouted as she quickly finished the last rolls in the box while licking her oily lips. “You have to have enough space in your stomach for the food at the beach.” Steve teased with a smile on his face.

Do you have to overreact like this?"

“Please? Please—” “Sorry to interrupt, love birds!” Sylvia’s familiar voice cuts through Reina’s pleas. Reina jumps off me and onto her at once. I take a step forward, my hand stationed at her back in case she misses her footing. They pull away after light jumping up and down, and Sylvia continues with a shit-eating grin on her face, “I know the invite says 5pm, but I couldn’t help coming a bit earlier, I’m so excited! Team girl!” She pulls at her pink crop shirt. Reina squeals again. “That’s what’s up!”
