Gabe came home.What he didn’t know was that Venkat followed him in his car from a distance. “He still lives in that old, shitty house, and he says he earns at least 20,000 dollars per month? He’s definitely lying.”“But this company card seems real,” Nora was looking at the visiting card that Gabe had given them. It had his name, company, address and everything in it except his phone number because he didn’t buy a mobile by the time this card was made.“It’s not that difficult to make cards like these,” Venkat blurted. He had short, curly hair which he hated. He also envied Gabe for his cool, soft, and straight hair, but now, he could see that Gabe’s hair was thinning down, and it made him happy inside because his hair was still dense. However, when Gabe said that he earned at least 240,000 dollars per year, his heart shook. “If I pay ten dollars in a store, they’ll print cards like these.”“You think so?” Nora sort of believed Venkat’s words. After all, if Gabe really was earning as
Mia hadn’t been the same ever since she heard from Bertha that Freddy was masturbating while watching her through the window. Since when was he doing it? Just thinking about it shook her to the core.Not only did she avoid meeting Freddy from there afterward, she stopped talking with everybody in the house.In fact, she was spending very little time in the house these days.Russell, on the other hand, had given a complaint to the police about his mother’s mobile being stolen. However, they didn’t even care enough to look for the thief.Though they told him they’d find the thief eventually, days turned into weeks.Today, Mia was going to the housewarming party set by Nora and Venkat not too far from her house.It was a duplex house, though one not as big as Mia’s current house.Venkat treated Mia well, knowing that she was rich, and he also used to have a secret crush on her back in school. While they were talking, Nora joined their conversation and asked her, “Gabe lives next to your
People’s eyes were glued to the dark olive sports car with state-of-the-art mechanical technology and craftsmanship of unprecedented prestige and quality. This V-10 beast with its streamlined lines looked like it could cut through the air and tame the road, making everyone want to not just see it but touch it and ride it down the smoothest lane in the world. And Gabe of all people stepped out of such a dreamy vehicle whose engine sounds created sensations in the bodies of men and women alike. However, Gabe was dressed in a simple T-shirt and a three-fourth. He did not look like he owned a high-end sports car. How could this plain-looking young man own such a sculptured and sensual car? Not possible. Definitely not possible was what some thought, while some others wondered if it was really his car or not. Those who didn’t know him however didn’t have such exaggerated reactions. As people began to murmur behind Venkat’s back, saying that the car would be worth almost half as much as
While Mia and Cynthia went for a ride in Gabe’s dark-olive lamborghini, Gabe felt envious of Cynthia because he wished to drive next to Mia.Bart, on the other hand, didn’t leave with Brendon and stayed behind for Mia, but because she went out with Cynthia, he was bored, and so he started flirting with Kiera.“You look like a precious jewel today, ma’am,” Bart smiled with his eyes.Kiera showered a beautiful smile in response. She was just eating, and this guy came out of nowhere and started complimenting her looks, making his intentions obvious, but because she knew Bart was not just anybody and had a good rapport with Brendon, she didn’t react in a negative way.“Even the way you’re eating is so wonderful to watch,” Bart said.Getting praised like this was nothing new to Kiera, so she acted a little indifferent.*She’s married, Bart.*Smarta didn’t like what Bart was doing.*You should pick someone else.*“I’ll pick whoever I want,” Bart continued flirting with Kiera until Zack ente
Gabe was sipping on wine happily because Mia wasn’t around. “It’s been more than ten minutes since they went for a ride. They are not going to recklessly drive and crash into something, right?” He was beginning to get a bit worried because it was a sports car, a Lamborghini Huracan, with a ravishing V-10 engine.“You’re Gabe, aren’t you?” a feminine voice reached Gabe’s ears.He looked to his right, and a curly brunette had this look of intrigue in her eyes. “Y-You’re… Roxy?” his back straightened. It had been so long since he saw her, so it took him a couple of seconds to recognize her. His eyes naturally looked at her from top to bottom because she was wearing somewhat revealing clothes. And her cleavage was giving him a good old thrill. “You… look, um… phenomenal.”“I know,” Roxy pretty much expected Gabe to drool all over her like this. She could smell a virgin from him, and she did her best to not roll her eyes already. “How are you doing these days?”“Uh, I’m a delivery driver,”
“Are you alone, Gabe?” The words of Mia reached Gabe’s ears as they walked along a slanted road on a hill region with the sun rising in the background, and his lamborghini parked at the base of the hill.Gabe shook his head, locking his arm with her, for with her around, he did not feel any fear anymore. She was like a heavenly gift given to him who was not worthy of such love and devotion. She was a perfect blessing. She was his queen.And they reached the hilltop together and had a wonderful time there.Back to reality, Gabe was chuckling as he daydreamed about him and Mia going on a trip and ending up having a great time.“How nice it would be if that becomes a reality,” he murmured. “But would she and I ever be free enough and ever get close enough to go on a journey together?” He could only wonder. He had been chasing money before he even grew a mustache, and afterward he also started chasing women.After many years, he started earning money after he met the alpha system, but he
“What happened?” Roxy found herself on the ground, looking worse than someone that slipped on a banana peel. “Why am I on the ground? How did I…”It took her a few seconds to realize what could have happened, and the sharp pain in her cheek only confirmed her thoughts that she really got slapped by Gabe.It was no ordinary slap. It was a slap that she couldn’t see coming. It was a slap that erased all her ego and almost made her shed tears like a child. It gave her something that was beyond humiliation. It was an eye-opening slap that tore through the facade of her sexiness and revealed her nakedness to everyone.Sevyn helped Roxy get back to her feet.With her cheek covered by her hand, Roxy looked at Gabe like a victim would.“Gabe!” Venkat quickly rushed over in a bit of a rage. “How could you slap your friend like that?” He used to have a crush on Roxy as well, so he felt really inclined to support her during this time. “How could you hit a woman?”“She asked for it,” Gabe shrugge
“Give me the key, Mia,” Cynthia asked for the car key.“You want to go for a ride by yourself?” Mia asked.“No. I just want to see the key,” she replied, and so Mia gave her the key. Cynthia got over the car after Mia and slid the key along the length of the car to ruin its appearance. She made sure nobody noticed it and then tossed the key to Mia. “That’s the best key I’ve ever seen.”Mia just smiled and then they entered the house together, only to see many people gathered around a poker game. To her surprise, both Bart and Gabe were also playing the game. Cynthia went and stood behind Bart, who she had a bit of a feeling for, but at the same time, she also had an eye on Russell.Mia didn’t know who she should stand behind. Bart was family, but Gabe was a good friend. Whom should she support?Since Cynthia was behind Bart, and there was no one supporting Gabe, she went and stood behind him.Gabe’s heart was filled with positivity when Mia stood behind him, her hands touching the cha
