What if I'm all a game to him, to make me fall for him which evidently gives him the power to do whatever he wants with me? I cringed inwardly at the though of that and increased my pace as my apartment building surfaced.
Well. Whatever. I'm too exhausted to think about that now.
Getting home, I had a quick shower, had lunch then settled in on my assignment.
As I flipped through the pages of the textbook, some pieces of paper secured between two pages caught my attention.
I gasped as I glanced through it, remembering Amber's excited self as she reminded me of it.
'Oh. I'd appreciate some adventure.' I chuckled as I headed towards my wardrobe to get ready.
Peeling my eyes away from the flyer, I glanced at the time and gasped: 5:45pm!
With the speed of light, I changed my outfit and put on a black knee level straight dress with a pair of sandals. I brushed my hair, brushing the bangs to th
'Welcome.' He said. His voice came out deep and velvety, making me want to purr.I mirrored his expression, a big smile plastered on my face as my eyes remained locked on his gaze.Soon his gaze lifted from me to Amber who scooted closer to him as they talked in hushed tones.I watched him as he spoke.He had an aura which fascinated me.He looked like he was in his late twenties.My overt gawking was soon interrupted as Amber turned towards me and smiled, stepping closer to me.'It's a pleasure to meet you Annie.' Sir Quentin said, offering me a hand shake. I took his hands which was both firm and warm to the touch.It was strangely soothing as his large hand wrapped around my slim hand. He then looked at Amber and they seemed to be communicating. Smiling at me one last time, he turned away from us, back to the actors.As Amber dragged me back towards the exit, I couldn't help but ask.
She was recovering really fast and the whole family just began to exhale in relief when she was plunged into severe relapse by an offsetting text by her fiancee saying he's 'moved on' since she won't be alive for too long.That was the roughest year for Shirley and I'd catch her cry herself to sleep almost every time.I was hurt because she was going through such pain and I couldn't do anything about it.After about six months, she decided to go back to Paris to start all over again. After days of contemplation, Mum finally agreed.I prayed in my heart for her safety as I watched her walk towards the plane, her back turned towards us, her last words re-echoing in my mind.'I'd be opening a lemonade shop soon with the amount of lemons life keeps throwing at me.' She chuckled sadly as her hazel eyes glowed dimly.I peered into her eyes, searching for a reason to believe she's ready to be by herself. 'Stop worrying about me kiddo, It's wri
It's been hours since Tee left. Tired of staring at the ceiling, I picked up my phone and as usual, I had several missed calls. Scrolling through my call log, I noticed an unknown number dialed a day ago.'Who could this be?' I muttered as my thumb hovered over the dailer. Curiousity getting the better of me, I dailed the number, hoping it doesn't turn out to be a stalker or someone worse.After a few rings, the reciever picked.'Hello?' I said, my voice unnecessarily shaky as I spoke.'Hello. I didn't think you would call.' A strangely familiar voice filtered through the buzzing static invading my ears.'Yeah, likewise because I'm not sure who's speaking. I saw your number dialed on my phone and I had to call to know whose number it is.' I answered.'Ouch. So you didn't save my number afterall.' He replied. 'It's Victor. Victor Storm.'Silence.'Hello?' He
'That's like, ten minutes walk from Art at heart!' Amber replied'Wait... Art at Heart? I thought it was called the Dreamhouse?' I questioned, looking puzzled at my Goth companion who paid me zero attention.'Oh... well, not much persons know it as The Dreamhouse yet so... you know what? I'll come get you. Where are you at Worswick street?' Amber asked'At uh, Dreamhouse?' I said 'As in, the kiddies park dream house.' I added for clarification.Ambers melodious chuckle filled my ears as she replied. ' Somehow, I knew this would happen. I'm on my way.''I'll be waiting.' I sighed.'So what do you do for fun around here?' I turned to my goth companion.No response.I guess that's all I needed to keep quiet and mind my business.Soon, Amber was here and she drove us to Art at heart.'Wait, this is Art at heart?!
It's Thursday and I've literally Ignored Amber for the larger part of the week which has been really tasking as we happen to be in the same group.Asfor Tee, you should know he's sort of unavoidable.Well, he sort of brought me a peace offering of burnt brownies Monday morning.Itwas hilarious seeing his puppy dog eyes and burnt brownies, epecially with the smoke wafting through the spaces on his door.At least he tried.I felt really confident today on my navy blue blouse and purple flare skirt as I pranced into the faculty.My well trimmed bangs bouncing as I walked. I'm not much of an attention seeker but then I guess it's happening today. I marched on in my black platform boots, ignoring the hoots and whistles as I walked into the workshop building. Ariel and Adara trudged towards me with identical smirks.'Girrrrl' Adara began as she skimmed over my
A look crossed his face I couldn't quite decipher, but he answered.'Sure. Of course we are. And I'm sorry if I overstepped my boundaries and acted like an overprotective father, I just... I care...about you, that's why. And I don't want some guy coming to telling you sweet words just to get laid.' Allen seethed, his fist clenched as he spoke.'Allen...' I warned. My heart swelled a little with joy because of his words but I didn't let it show.'I'm-I'm sorry.' He pulled me into a hug. I was stunned at first, my arms hanging limp at my sides but a few seconds later I hugged him back and his shoulders relaxed.'It's okay.' I muttered. 'I forgive you.''Thank You Princess.' He replied, hugging me a little tighter. 'Gosh, I've missed you.'Chuckling, I replied. 'I've missed you too.'It felt good now Allen and I are cool again. I wouldn't want to loose an amazing frien
I looked up from my manual and let my eyes stray a bit.At least I made myself believe that.I was subconsciously searching for a particular pair of green eyes and when I found it-or rather- when it found me, I smiled inwardly.His eyes remained fixed on me, not straying for a second.The instructor's lecture on bench fitting fell on deaf ears as our stare contest continued.Then he smiled, his dimples on full display. I ignored the flutter in my stomach which made me feel antsy. Soon I'd have to use the bathroom.'Annie.' A voice whispered beside me. I refused to look as I didn't need to guess who was trying to get my attention.'Not now, Amber.' I replied, not sparing her a glance.'No, can't do. You've been avoiding me all week.' She continued.'Yes, It was deliberate. I'm not interested in what you have to say, thank you very much.' I responded curtly.'But-'<
It was lunch break and there I was, nibbling at my tacky lunch distractedly...alone.You read that right.Ariel and Dara were nowhere to be found.I turned down Allen's offer to sit with him during lunch because I expected those two to be here sitting with me right now. As I finished my lunch, I saw them waltzing in, talking excitedly to each other.'Ariel, Dara, where have you been? You said you'd be here by lunchtime.' I enquired, slightly annoyed and relieved at the same time.'Oh, we had to do some...stuff.' Dara said, smiling knowingly at Ariel.'Yeah. We had some matters to attend to.' Ariel shrugged.'Um...You guys wanna share?' I asked hesitatantly, already feeling hurt for them doing 'stuffs' w
