The shop was filled with silence, and apart from the rasping breath of the store owner, the only noise came from the crowd who stood outside the store watching from the transparent glass; most of them had turned on their camera to video the scene but none interfered.

Mason's gaze pinned the store owner to the ground, and his aura suffocated him. The man could tell that Mason wasn't going to let him go until he completed his promise of either breaking his hand or his leg.

"Please, I made a mistake. Alright! I was foolish to throw a bottle at a child, and I regret it now, but please don't hurt my hand or my leg. I also have kids!” The man whimpered, crawling backward, but Mason's long stride closed in on the space, and when his eyes dropped to the man's leg, the owner shrieked. “Please don't do it; I'm the breadwinner of my family!” He yells in pain and frustration.

Mason raised his gaze to the man's pale face, mixed with sweat and tears. He halted his step as the man’s back pressed ag

  • Not An Ordinary Watch

    Mason stepped away from the stall, allowing the weight of his bag to rest against his shoulder while his other hand was occupied with the other bags. He quietly moved to join the crowd who were now waiting for the announcement of their departure.“Omg,” Mason overheard a student gasp in his direction. He narrowed his gaze to the guy standing with a female student. Their eyes shifted from his face and glued to his wrist. The sun filtering through the airport glass caught the watch at an angle, which made the polished metal gleam with elegance. It wasn’t flashy, and yet its calm nature screamed for attention.“He actually wore a Rolex,” one of the students who was quick to notice him repeated. More students turned their heads, pausing mid-sentence to stare in his direction.“Huh? Are you sure that’s a Rolex?” Another student muttered, leaning forward with squinted eyes, hoping to get a closer look. “I’ve never seen that design before,” another student replied, making more whispers sp

  • Airport

    The next morning, Mason’s alarm rang at 6am. Without hesitation he slipped out of bed with ease, running a hand through his hair. It was as if his body was excited to prove someone wrong.After a quick shower, Mason stepped into his expansive walk-in wardrobe. His eyes roamed through the row of tailored suits, casual designer wear, and other outfits that lined the space, but that wasn't what he was looking for. At the far end sat several glass cases resting in silence.Mason paused for a minute, allowing his finger to brush past several watches, each one capable of turning heads and destroying reputations. Finally, he reached for the unique piece, the Paul Newman’s Daytona. He could remember the day his mother gifted him the watch. He could remember walking into his bedroom and seeing the case resting on his bed with a note from his mother, and today would mark the first time he would wear it.Mason lifted up the price. The weight of it was comforting, solid, and certain. He fasten

  • Group Chat

    Mason lay across his king-size bed, one arm tucked beneath his head, as the soft glow of his phone illuminated the space. He had been ignoring the department group chat for days due to the endless notifications and pointless arguments. But today was different, and boredom had a way of lowering standards.With a click of his thumb, he opened the engineering group chat. The first thing that greeted him was chaos: messages stacking on, emojis flooding his screen, and voice notes that he had no intention of listening to coming in.Mason frowned slightly and began scrolling upward, trying to trace the origin of their excitement. After a few seconds, he paused at the highlighted messages, which caught his attention. [ANNOUNCEMENT: DEPARTMENTAL TRIP TO SONG ISLAND]“Songs Island?” he muttered under his breath. The survival program is now part of the university curriculum, which is taking place on Song Island. Mason has heard of students who have gone through the various stages of the progr

  • Quiet Secrets

    The Williams mansion was calm as usual, and the soft lights glowed against marble walls, mixing with the low hum of a classic movie drifting from the living room. Mason stepped inside, loosening his tie with one hand while his eyes scanned through the space.After the deal between the Higgs family, Mason, using his presence as an opportunity, attended the company meetings. Most staff who weren't expecting him felt their bodies stiffen in his presence. Though he was young, handsome, and seemed kind, the sense of fear still lingered around them, probably from the thought of losing their job, making the young CEO unreadable.“I’m glad that’s over,” Mason muttered to himself, shifting his gaze to the wide leather couch where his mother sat, wrapped in a light shawl. She trained her gaze on the screen as Black and white actors spoke words long forgotten by time.She sensed him before she saw him, and her lips curved into a smile. She averted her head, and with a small motion of her fingers

  • Higgs Villa

    Jacob drove through the city with one hand on the wheel and the other resting casually on his open window. The skyline blurred past as satisfaction settled in his chest. Mason Williams remained a ghost to him, but that didn’t matter much to him. The signature was real, and the deal was sealed. An abrupt image of Billy’s face flashed in his thoughts, and a wave of disgust crept over Jacob’s face, twisting his features.“That bastard," he muttered under his breath. "How dare he ask me such a ridiculous question! He clearly doesn't know who I am or what I'm capable of." He chuckled softly, turning his gaze toward the briefcase resting on the passenger seat. "With this, I can get him fired," he said, with a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.Suddenly, the chime of his phone snapped him out of his thoughts. He reached over and glanced at the screen. Natalia’s name was displayed, and Jacob rolled his eyes."What does this bitch want?" He scoffed, swattin

  • A Business Deal 3

    With the question hanging in the air, Billy walked in with measured confidence, taking the seat opposite Jacob. He dropped the files on the desk before raising his gaze to meet his gaze. “Mr. Williams sends his regards,” Billy replied. “I will be representing him today.”The temperature in the room suddenly dropped. Jacob instinctively glanced at his watch, noting their late arrival. It also struck him that they had waited for hours just to be attended by someone who, to him, did not seem worthy of his time. His jaw tightened in frustration, but he managed to keep a steady smile on his face, though anyone familiar with reading between the lines could see through his facade. "I was under the impression that the presence of the Williams heir was required for this meeting." "And I was under the impression that the proposal was more important than appearances." Billy responded calmly.Jacob, with his hand hanging by his side, clenched his fist in irritation. When he looked at Billy, he
