George's POV.
"Money? Why do we need to give you money for the sake of setting an appointment?" I asked, rolling my eyes.
Does he think he could still fool me? Heck, no.
"For the sake of securing the schedule of my boss, you need to give me money." Helius is still the same as before. "Are you still suspicious of me after the stripping game you did before? For my eyes only?
Harry couldn't keep it up anymore. He gripped his collar and was ready to punch him with his bare hands. "Do you want me to kill you right now?"
"Fuck..." Helius grunted. Harry tightened the grip. No one really cares about Helius in this company except for that bitch Cara. I don't know exactly her reasons for keeping Helius by her side, knowing everybody else is so scared of him.
But I'm sure it's related to Yul Matthew.
"Fine! I will speak!" he struggled to speak. Harry let him go.
"Speak."
"Cara went on a leave. She wanted to follow Yul Matthew to his next project." I can't believe this shit still affects me.
I clenched my fist. "Where's this exact place?" I asked.
"At the North, Barrio of St. Adelina," he replied. "Actually, Yul Matthew kept his destination a secret. So she followed Flint to get Yul's destination."
I closed my eyes. I don't want to hear it, nor feel like I'm interested in his plans or anything. Even to the girls, he's been spending time with.
I have Harry now.
We're not officially together, but it's okay. As long as we're together, I don't need to feel alone.
"Let's go?" Harry asked. I just nodded.
Phew, I hope he won't notice I'm out of myself.
----
"Are you sure we're gonna continue this relationship?" Harry asked. We're inside his car now, on the way to Cara. "Yeah, you don't want it?"
He shook his head and held my hand. "I want it. But your heart is still full of scars and fresh wounds. What if I'll serve as a distraction instead of a help?"
I smiled at him. He was once my brother, so I would say that I find this very awkward. Our situation is kind of weird. But it's still not a good... escape.
"No, you're not."
I kissed him, but only a smack at first. And it turned out to be a passionate kiss.
His hand went to my neck, down to my boobs. I had to disengage from the kiss.
"Why?" he asked. I DON'T KNOW TOO!
But I answered, "You don't want to arrive late at the North, right? Let's go while the sun is still young."
He looked outside. "Why don't we go home first and go there tomorrow?"
ARGH!
Why do I feel so disappointed?
Do I want to see him there? Do I want to know what he has been doing for two weeks since we separated?
I nodded. "If that's what you want."
"Yes, and let's continue our business," he said. Harry moved his fingers to my skirt, opening it to reach my cunt. "You're so fucking seductive. Even though you're just standing fully clothed in front of me, I'll still find you hot."
His compliments still keep my blood awake.
I responded to his insolent initiation of sex.
I'm so good at pretending. I don't want this.
I disengage from the lustful and hot kiss. "I want to tell you something."
"Jeez! In the middle of our kiss, you just thought of that? Tss. Whatever! Just tell me what is it." He was disappointed. He almost lost it and hit the steering wheel. I was lucky, he didn't.
"I---uhh... I wanted to be a sex worker."
Yul's POV.
"YUL MATTHEW SERVANO!" Cara shouted. "I WANT YOU SO FCKING BAD! PLEASE MARRY ME!"
I covered my face as I walked toward my house, covering my face using the hat made by the locals here. She's so intimidating!
Nothing's happening between the two of us. Actually, the moments she spends here are more like a waste. I'm always busy! So she ends up waiting for my return.
"Mr. Servano!" Jun said, one of the locals here that I hired to get the construction done here in St. Adelina. "Have some coffee first before you get mad at her!" he laughed, pertaining to Cara.
I took the coffee and sipped it. "I know, right? Haha! You totally get me."
"But she's pretty nice to us, workers," Jun defended.
Flint came with breakfast in his hands. "That's just her attitude right now because she couldn't get my best friend's heart. It already belongs to someone who always pushed him away."
I hit his shoulder slightly. "Don't mention about George."
"George?" Jun said. "What a very beautiful name."
"She's a beautiful girl too. I hope you see her. But I don't think I will ever stand a chance." I looked down. Honestly, I'm losing my hope.
Jun tapped my shoulder. "Time is always there to tell you what to do. Just wait and savor this moment you have for yourself. If it's meant to be, it will be."
I thought about it for a second and realized... that it was impossible to get back to her. It's beyond possible.
Not because I knew she wouldn't accept me anymore. But... I don't want to continue our relationship.
I'm getting tired of defending myself too. Always felt like I still needed more reasons to tell her that I wasn't being defensive... that I didn't plan to hurt her.
All I wanted right now was peace of mind. So I just wanted to let her think what she wants.
I don't care anymore.
My life is already messed up as it is.
"Look who's here." Flint bitten his tongue. Am I dreaming or what?"
"YUL MATTHEW!" Cara shouted. "Here, I even planted a seed of mango. Ms. Nena helped me to! So can you pleas accept my begging heart?"
I wasn't answering. Stunned by these visitors who came unannounced.
Why are they here?
For what reason?
George, clinging her arms to him makes me want to kill a person.
My woman is right there!
Cara suddenly pulled me closer to her.
I couldn't stop it, or even have a chance to speak.
She looked at George and Harry once again.
Then she kissed me.
FUCK! THIS ISN'T WHAT I WANTED!
She let me go. "Why are you looking at other girls, when I'm already here?" I couldn't speak again. Then she whispered. "I'll help you."
