Goodbye

SHANTAL's P o V~~~ Alex and I spent the rest of the night together with a jovial mood. There were also other couples who were like that decided to stay at the lover's park to make the most out of the meteor shower. It was only when the first ray of the sun broke at the horizon did we took it as our sign to leave. We all did. Meanwhile, I knew that I would gonna treasure this moment in my head for the next decades of my life, so before finally climbing down the mountain, I took one last look at the place. From the benches and lamp post, up from the stars in the sky and down the pale glow of the moon at the pavements, the overall ambience within the mountain that served as a lover's park spelled romance in my eyes. At the same time, on our way home, I purposely drive slower. I offered Alex and drive to his plac

The warmest winter

AUTHOR's P o V~~~ As soon as Alex went inside, he was greeted by the questioning stares of Harold, Sam and others right away. Apparently, the other party entered with all smiles; sporting a silly grinning face all the way to his room. It was for that reason why, the group of people who has been staying with him at the same place could not help but turn their heads to his direction as he walked past them. They even followed him with this quizzical look written all over their faces. It was clear for all eyes to see that they were totally weird out by the way how Alex was behaving at that time. For the benefit of the doubt, Sam and Harold eventually ended up taking the initiative to run after Alex and followed him all the way into his room while the rest, on the other hand, only followed them with their gazes. They intended to learn where the other party had been the other ni

Aged like wine

AUTHOR's P o V~~~ Time went on without them even realizing that almost a week had past already. It was as if time flew by them unnoticed. Likewise, during that same week, Alex and Shantal had been keeping contact with each other allowing them to have a mutual understanding of their emotion and in return made their relationship to blossom even further. On the contrary, Harold and the others used their time to face the setback brought by their on bad decisions in life. They had been meeting people trying to set things straight as an attempt the mess that they left on their wake as a repercussion of their action. That day, the group was scheduled to meet. Mrs. Mathilde Angeles, the incumbent chief executive officer of Ironscrapes as well as Jodi's very own stepmom. However, Jodi was not with them when they went to see the madam on her office. The girl decided against joining the appointmen

Lady in red

Jodi never talked about her stepmom with them, as such they have no idea that the other party looked way much younger than her actual age. When Mathilde waltz inside her office, everyone fought hard the urge to drop their jaw in amazement of her beauty. Saying that she looked stunning was an underestimation. In fact, even the word gorgeous was not enough to give justice to her beauty. Mathilde possessed the kind of beauty that could cause the downfall of a nation. Her long and jet black hair that cascaded down to her waist created a stark contrast to her bold red lips and red outfit. The sound of her high heels as she walked down the marbled floor like a next top model added a domineering air to her presence. This pair of red stiletto of hers matched with her tailored lady's suit of the same color which fitted perfectly on her body frame, accentuating her curves. It was sure as hell that a girl like her could convince anyone to pay her attention wherever s

Under Cover

AUTHOR's P o V~~~ Meanwhile, Jodi may not come with Harold's group to finalize the agreement with her stepmom. But that did not mean that she was idling for the day either. Truth be told, she was up to something. At the moment, her eyes looked sunken as prominent dark circles covered the under of her eyes. However, that did not stop her from giving herself another doze of caffeine. She sipped her black coffee from a cheap looking paper cup that she happened to avail from a vending machine nearby; just a few yards away from where she was currently parked. After downing its content, she threw the cup at the back seat and looking closely, the first thing that would greet one's eyes would be the pile of countless paper cups that she emptied, which littered the floor of her car. Jodi did not seem to mind the trash heaping right behind her though, as her eyes never left t

Old acquaintance

AUTHOR's P o V~~~ "It is nice to see you again, Mr. Almiro." Jodi said and when she failed to get a response from the other party she purposely widened her smile until her eyes were almost gone and for some reason, as soon as she did that, recognition started to dawn on Mr. Almiro's face. "Is that you Jodi?' Mr. Almiro asked in disbelief as he gave the lady before him a once over. Jodi on the other hand did not confirm it directly and just said, "It has been a while." Seeing the familiar figure of a child whom he once watched growing up seemed to do the job of enthralling Mr. Almiro. The other party used to be a family driver of the Nordstorme family and in fact used to serve them together with Butler James, Butler John's late father. Mr. Almiro worked with the family until the accident but after Shantal

The dark truth of the past

AUTHOR's P o V "Just like you, I also revered Uncle Christopher and if not of his untimely death, I could bet for sure that he would be a name to reckon with to this day. After all, he was a great business man during his prime." Jodi tried to build a common ground between her and Mr. Almiro by purposely saying those words. She wanted the other party to feel that they were on the same page. "Not only he has been passionate about building his company, but he was also one of the few businessman who truly cares about his people. You should know that better than I do since you also used to work under his wing." Next, she tried to insinuate how the other party was indebted with her uncle; playing with his psyche and emotion. Before she revealed her goal. "But tomorrow, once the deal between Ironscrapes and Nordstrorme Corp got finalized, the business that Uncle Christopher had pa

It won't gonna happen

The picture of that woman in red was still clear at Mr. Almiro's head as if he had only seen her yesterday. Everything that transpired that night at the hospital as well as the details of their conversation became a vivid memory to him. It was crystal clear not because he wanted to remember them, rather, this became his recurring nightmare that haunted him up to these days. In fact, the woman's bold red lipstick and her pair of red stiletto that she was wearing night caused Mr. Almiro to develop an irrational fear and aversion towards anything that was color red in general. He became erythrophobic because of Mrs. Angeles. After hearing the story straight from Mr. Almiro's mouth, Jodi felt weak and nauseous. All this time, she had been living with a murderer!" "Did my mom----" Jodi paused and quickly changed the way she addressed her stepmom. "Did Mrs. Angeles really say that t

Happier

ALEX's P o V~~~ "When will you going to come then?" Shantal asked me with a pout and as soon as I saw her making that face, I melted. It took every ounce of my self control not to give in at her cuteness. In an attempt to keep my sanity and not to lose myself at her, I bit the lower part of my lip. I started to unbuckle the seatbelt while she was still looking on the other way. "I will call you after I take a nap." I told Shantal the moment I found my voice. Then with a wink, I opened the door and prepared to live. But just as when I was about to go, I heard her mutter under her breath. "What a pity." I pretended like I did not hear her. But then she suddenly stopped me on the middle of my track again by asking. "Do you want to start working at my place again?" I d

Lost cause

HAROLD's P o V~~~ We have no idea what happened at Alex last night but I could bet my wrist that something really good must have happened to him if he was behaving that way. Why would I think so, you asked? Well, apparently, as soon as the person in question walked in and appeared right before our doorstep, the first thing that greeted our eyes was his big smile. Not only that, Alex also seemed to be too caught up on his own merry world that he did not even noticed us gawking at him, in the first place. He just waltz in without greeting us and headed to his room unbothered with the questioning stares being thrown at his direction. Curious, I followed my good friend all the way to his room and when I looked at my colleagues to check who was in with me, I saw Sam sporting the same expression as mine. I nodded my head and gestured to her to come after me and Sam followed with
