"There's just one more thing," Vincent said."What is it?" Tashas asked, eagerly waiting for his response."During all this, we will have to stay away from each other. I told them we broke up so we have to act on it no matter how difficult." "I'll do exactly that," Tasha replied without questioning Vincent. Vincent kissed her one last time after her parents walked in right after they parted."Thank you for all your help so far. I don't know what would have happened if you weren't here to assist us." Tasha's father said to Vincent."Thank you so very much." Tasha's mother added."It's not something to thank me for. I see you both and Tasha as my family." Vincent replied."I have to go now," Vincent said, checking his wristwatch."Have a lovely day." Tasha's mom said to Vincent.Vincent left the hospital and went to his car which was parked outside by the driver waiting for him.Vincent's phone rang the moment he sat in his car. It was an unknown number calling and he braced himself fo
A man shivered as he felt his heart pounding uncontrollably against his chest. He had just dodged something that could have sent him to the hospital.The glass cup which was earlier aimed at him, missed him only by inches before shattering into pieces on the wall behind him."How dare you come to me with such nonsense excuse?!" Mr Khalid's voice echoed throughout his office and outside of it.He has been acting out to the slightest mistakes of his employees for the past two weeks and no one knew why. His employees tried very hard to avoid crossing paths with him and those who were given tasks by him made sure to go through those tasks five to ten times before submitting the results but somehow they keep finding themselves caught up with Khalid's anger."Is this what I employed you for?! This trash of a report?!" Mr Khalid roared out."I'm sorry sir. Please forgive me. I... I will do it again. I will do the task from the start. Please. Please sir." the man begged as if his life depend
"I came here to see you. I couldn't stop thinking of what it would be like to have you under me in bed. You have such a perfect body and I want to caress it so badly." Mr Khalid could only say those words in his head. How could he dare say such dirty things out loud about someone's mother while being married himself?"Can I come in?" Mr Khalid asked Veronica."I asked you a question. What are you doing here?" Veronica stood firm, trying not to show any form of weakness."I came here to see Vincent." Mr Khalid answered."Didn't the security guard tell him Vincent isn't home? Why allow this man to enter this place?" Veronica thought to herself."Vincent isn't home," she answered Khalid."I know. I was informed of his absence. I came in so I can wait for him. It is very urgent." Mr Khalid explained."If it's urgent then make a phone call to him and leave this place. It's not some sort of waiting room, especially not for someone like you." Veronica retorted.Veronica slammed the door but
The next morning, Mr Khalid woke up next to his wife in bed as usual but this time her hand was roaming about his body."What is it?" Mr Khalid asked, unfazed."Isn't it obvious what I want?" Alma questioned and started to kiss her husband.Mr Khalid gently pushed her away and turned to the other side of the bed where he couldn't see her face.Alma went closer again and licked Mr Khalid's ear. This time he pushed her away roughly and sat up in bed with his feet touching the ground."Khalid? What is wrong with you?! Haven't you been asking me for this for a long time? And now you are pushing me away when I have the time and energy for it?" Alma exclaimed, her face showing distraught."I'm just not in the mood right now," Khalid replied."Oh?! Just like you weren't in the mood last night or the night before that and the night before that huh?! I thought that maybe you wanted to do it in day time instead but it seems that I am wrong." Alma said to Khalid.Khalid placed his elbows on his
Vincent was assembling some documents when he hears a knock on his door in the office."Come in," he said.Mr Khalid entered and made his way to Vincent's desk. He sat on the chair opposite Vincent as usual with his desk between them."I never thought you would come this early in the afternoon but as I said before, I would be expecting you. Care for some coffee?" Vincent said to Mr Khalid."No. Thank you." Mr Khalid replied.Vincent sipped on his coffee and put down the cup on his desk, "so, what is this urgent discussion you have been looking up to since yesterday?" Vincent asked Khalid.To be honest, Khalid never had any urgent discussion he wanted to have with Vincent. He said that lie when Vincent saw him with Veronica in their living room so he felt he had to come up with something to go with his lie or else Vincent will be suspicious of something."Well, you see... I came here on behalf of my son, Ferdinand." Mr Khalid answered.Vincent raised an eyebrow, "really?""Yes. I wante
After getting home from work, Khalid starts ignoring his wife even more.Alma was getting more pissed off and swore that she would make whatever woman behind this pay."Here's your..."Mr Khalid swung his hand and the plate of food his wife prepared specially for him fell off the tray and scattered all over the ground.That was the moment when Alma lost her mind, "are you fucking crazy?! I've been trying for days now to get on your good side but it seems to me that your mood is permanently sour around me!" she screamed.Mr Khalid ignored Alma and continued doing something on his phone."There's another woman, isn't there?" Alma finally asked the question she has been trying to avoid for a long time.Mr Khalid lifted his eyes from the phone screen to Alma's face. It was now that she had his attention.Alma smirked, "You think that I didn't notice you smiling to yourself when you walked in? Do you think I didn't notice that smile fade away the instant you looked at me? All I need to do
Vincent sat in his office the next morning very distracted from the world around him. There was nothing else he could think about but his mother and he kept wondering what it was that bothered her so much to the extent of not being able to share it."Will she speak up if I took her to Dad?" Vincent wondered.A knock came on his door which he did not hear or respond to. After knocking again, Ferdinand walked into the office and dropped some documents on Vincent's desk.Vincent didn't even notice Ferdinand's presence in his office until Ferdinand spoke and clapped in front of his face.Vincent shook his head and then looked at Ferdinand, "Oh! Ferdinand. When did you come inside?" Vincent asked."I knocked twice and let myself in when you didn't respond. What's wrong? What's on your mind?" Ferdinand asked Vincent.In the past few weeks, Vincent had formed a bond with Ferdinand and José as his friends and Kate as his girlfriend who was now deeply in love with him. He could move ahead wi
"What do you mean you invited the Idris' over to our home?!" Veronica exclaimed in shock after Vincent informed her of their coming."Relax Mom. Why are you...""Sorry. Sorry. I wasn't supposed to react that way." Veronica rushed to say."You see? This is exactly why I invited them. You haven't been yourself lately because you've just been cooped up here with no one to talk to and no friends. I just want you to spend time with them that's all. Can't you do that for me?" Vincent said to his mother.Veronica sighed, "You didn't have to invite their entire family.""I only invited Ferdinand, José, and Kate. Not their parents. Why? Do you want me to invite...""No! No!" Veronica shouted, raising her hands and shaking it quickly rejecting the idea.Vincent held her hands, "Calm down. You can do this." he said to her.Veronica calmed down. At least now she knew that Khalid wasn't one of those that Vincent invited over.Maybe it wouldn't be that bad after all.The doorbell rings and Vincent
