  I didn’t play hard to get since it was him who offered first. And he has a car with him so it’s more convenient. There is no need for me to look for a cab. I’m also concerned about the environment and calling a cab can add air pollution. I want to protect Mother Earth. I am a responsible citizen. I get into Devyn’s car. Devyn. Gosh, I still can’t wrap my mind around the fact that he’s not the real Jack Wills. We talk a bit inside the car. We have another conversation about the company. I am no expert but I guess I still have some knowledge about it. He seems very eager and enjoys talking to me. I can’t blame him because people say I’m quite charming.   When we arrive at the establishment where the photoshoot will take place, we enter the building. Most of the people turn their heads to look at us. In fact, no one’s even looking at me. Everyone’s attention is focused on Devyn. He’s wearing another casual clothes. A simple gray shirt and jea

  “Thank you for calling Global. This is Betsy speaking. How can I be of assistance today?” I warmly say to the client on the other line. “Hi, Betsy. My girlfriend just broke up with me. What shall I do?”asks the man. His voice sounds like he’s on the verge of crying. He is my last client before my lunch break. “I’m not a radio DJ,” I murmur absentmindedly. “What did you say?” I almost face palm. I clear my throat and act professionally. “I mean did you do something which upset her?” “Well I just went out with my friends! What is wrong with that?” he says sharply.  “Hmp. So what do you want to do on your account, sir?” “Oh yes,” he falters and there is a stretch of silence. ‘Er . . . I’d like to know my account’s balance.”  “Sure. Let me go ahead and check that balance for you. Can I have your account number?” He murmurs his account number and I key in the i

  I have a lot of regrets in life. But I guess, not coming home quite often for a visit is the thing that I regret the most. I could’ve have hang out with Grandpa more often. But it’s too late now. Grandpa is gone. It replays on my mind repeatedly. He is gone. I wish I can change it and think that this is just a bad dream. I stare into the calm sea as the boat approaches the port. I’ve returned again in Sequim but this time with a heavy heart. The entire ride to my village is spent with me thinking about the old days with my grandfather. Those wonderful and fun memories with him. We were so close to each other.  It may be a small town but most of my childhood memories were spent in here.   When I reach home, I notice how quiet the house is. Each step I make towards it is a struggle. I tighten the grip on the backpack I’ve brought. I won’t be hearing Grandpa’s melancholy laugh anymore whenever he sees me.  When I reach the doorstep,

 I am very much excited today. Devyn is coming over to my apartment and he’s going to pick me up for a date. I still can’t wrap my mind around the fact that he is now my boyfriend. I want to shout and declare to the whole world that we are currently in a relationship but I can’t because we are keeping our relationship discreet. I mean, technically he’s my boss. Things won’t be normal in the office if my colleagues learn about us being together. The mean girls might bully me and I might become an outsider. Okay fine. That only happens in movies and the only mean girl at the office is my friend, Ashley. I try to adjust the hem of the floral off shoulder dress I am wearing when I hear the knock at the door. I walk towards it, almost skipping in excitement. I turn the knob and open the door. I break into a delighted smile when I see Devyn, my boyfriend, standing on my doorstep. He looks so hot wearing a blue button

  I am grinning like a madwoman. I probably look weird as I walk into the company building. I get a lot of attention from people I pass by. I don’t care! Devyn’s huge confession and our romantic island getaway give me positivity in life. I am back to work. Back to the real world. I sigh wistfully remembering about my moments with Devyn. “Wonderful day, Russel!” I chirpily greet our security. His face remains stoic as he gives me a small nod. “We have a storm.” I do not even flinch when I hear another loud thunder. I glance at the dark clouds outside before I face him again. I casually tap his shoulder. My smile is still intact. “Such a wonderful day, indeed!” He looks at me ridiculously and shakes his head as if I am such a disappointment. I only nod at him and with a positive mindset, I continue walking towards the elevator. I finally reach it and push the button. I wait for the door to open. When it finally pings and then opens,
