“I still have nothing to wear!” Konnor says in realisation. He is currently having his dinner in a convenience store. No, he did not steal anything. He found a $10 dollar bill lying in the thrift store from earlier, so he conveniently slipped it into his pocket.
What? That’s literally his occupation.
With that $10 dollar bill, he got himself some instant noodles and a bottle of water, leaving him $5 more for tomorrow’s breakfast. While enjoying his dinner, he realises that he has nothing to wear for tomorrow’s event. Konnor checks for the time using his wristband.
“It’s 8 now. I still have 2 hours left before the mall closes.”
Konnor slurped his noodles hurriedly, gulped his water and rushed out of the store. He runs to the nearest shopping mall and unfortunately, it

“Here, I have one. My sister told me she designed this suit under the theme Dusky Retro, something she would like to see men wear if she was born a millennium ago.” Zheng Yang removes the suit from the cloth bag and reveals a grey suit. “What colour is this?” “Uh, hold on. It should say here in the tag- Charcoal grey,” Zheng Yang replies as he checks the tag attached to the suit. Konnor smiles giddily. He couldn’t believe his luck! This was the exact same colour he was looking for. “Do you mind if I have a look?” Konnor asks politely. “Sure, go ahead.” Zheng Yang places the suit in Konnor’s hands. The suit is by far the most mes
Fire & Flame Chapter 13 : Finally! Engagement <3
When Konnor was younger, he always thought he would be the first to settle down with a family. He always had a dream to do so, unlike Rachel. She would always be disgusted when Konnor starts talking about marriage when they were in their teenage years. Rachel never believed in love and matrimony. She thinks they are pure obstacles to achieve her dream. Now who would have expected her to tie a knot before Konnor? Konnor sighs as he gently swirls the wine in his glass. He arrived at Rachel’s engagement party 30 minutes ago but he has yet to see Rachel and her fiance. “Hey, Konnor!” Konnor turns around to see his twin standing in front of him. Konnor gasps in amazement. Rachel looks like a living fairy, with her beautiful air force blue dress. It is a flowy

“Even your name sounds romantic. Konnor, are you single?” Konnor looked at Sarah, flabbergasted. Why is she suddenly asking this? “Yes, I am-” “That’s great! I have a chance!” Sarah squeals. Konnor opened his mouth in amazement. This is the first time someone is openly confessing to him. “I-uh, I appreciate your sincerity. But I don’t want to be in a relationship right now.” “No worries, Konnor! I’ll chase you until you change your mind,” Sarah replies as she skips away happily. Konnor just shakes his head. He wasn’t expecting to gain another admirer. Clearly, she doesn’t watch the news often. Otherwise she would be stayin
Fire & Flame Chapter 15 : Ambush
“You even kept up with the time? You’re too nice, Konnor.” Konnor groans. He decides to ignore Sarah and her antics. He didn’t want to ruin the liveliness of this party just because of her. Rachel and Alderic come back and take their seats respectively. At the corner of his eye, Konnor sees Rachel’s eyes glimmering in tears of happiness. A gentle smile etched onto Konnor’s face. “I’m finally engaged with the love of my life!” Rachel whispers to Konnor. Konnor merely smiles and pats her head lovingly. “Rachel, we should get ourselves ready for the next event,” Alderic says as he looks at his fiance tenderly. Rachel nodded shyly, and allowed Alderic to guide her towards the back stage. Meanwhile, Sarah and Isabella follow them from behind. Konnor found this parti
Fire & Flame Chapter 16 : Sharing, not caring
“What’s the commotion outside?” Rachel is currently fixing her makeup. The next event involves friendly games among the guests. So, she had to change out of her long gown into a more casual outfit. Of course, being the star of the day, her casual outfit has to be impeccable. She opted for a long-sleeved baby blue shirt and a pair of white jeans. She also had a long vest as the icing of the entire outfit. “It seems like the police officers are trying to restrain someone, miss,” the makeup artist replies as she applies some lip gloss onto Rachel’s pale lips. “How dare they barge into my engagement party like this? What would the guests think about us?” Rachel complains. Alderic came up behind her and placed both his hands onto her shoulder. “Sweetheart, don’t worry. I

“Konnor, Konnor?” A voice calls out. Konnor blinks his eyes, repetitively but slowly. Through his blurry vision, he sees a woman in front of him. “Konnor, wake up!” Konnor blinks his eyes again. This time, he sees his mother in front of him. “Mom? Is-is that you?” Konnor asks emotionally. “Konnor, get up! The sun is shining!” “Mom?” “You make sure you get up okay? I need to leave now,” the woman says as she slowly fades into the background. “Mom! Wait! Come back! Don’t leave me again, please!” Konnor yells as he falls onto the ground. E
Fire & Flame Chapter 18 : Excuse me?
“What is this place anyway? Is this not prison?” Thomas looks at Konnor pointedly. If this was a prison, would he be served fancy food? “Konnor, you can be really dull-witted.” Konnor scoffs audibly, expressing his annoyance. How dare this stranger call him dull-witted! Konnor might not look like the sharpest tool in the shed right now, being tied up and all. However, most of the time, he is rather brilliant. And a narcissist. “Hey, that’s not very nice,” Konnor reprimands Thomas. Thomas slowly cuts the steak using the knife and fork provided. “I believe you took a look around.” Konnor watches his action cautiously. The knife lo
Fire & Flame Chapter 19 : New Acquaintances
Eventually, Konnor finished the steak. It wasn’t easy, considering the fact he was being watched like a hawk by Thomas. “Okay, now that we’re done, I need you to put these on,” Thomas said as he handed Konnor a blindfold. Konnor stared at Thomas, boggle-eyed. Why did he hand him a blindfold? “Thomas, I don’t swing that way.” “Swing, what way?” Konnor pointed to the blindfold and realisation dawned upon Thomas. “No, Konnor. That’s not what the blindfold is for.” “Oh, not to satisfy your kink?” Thomas sighed as he took the blindfold and forcefully placed it on Konnor. <
