Third Person's POV
Eunice returned home feeling sad. She didn't eat dinner; she had lost her appetite.
"Eunice," she heard their housekeeper call out, probably wondering why she hadn't eaten. Eunice usually never skipped dinner, but feeling down and self-conscious about her body, she chose not to eat.
"Yes?" Eunice replied as she opened the door to her room. She saw the oldest housekeeper, whom she considered a second mother, holding a glass of milk.
"Here, drink this milk," the housekeeper said, handing Eunice the glass. Eunice accepted it and smiled at the elderly woman.
"Eunice, you know that I'm here for you and Ulysses. Don't hesitate to tell me if you have a problem," she said. Eunice's heart warmed at these words, and she nodded in response. Before the housekeeper left, Eunice hugged her tightly and thanked her.
Back in her bed, Eunice picked up her cellphone and stalked Arcus's social media. She knew it would only hurt her, but she wanted to check on him.
She saw a new post from Arcus's account, but it was just a tagging of him alongside one of his friends who made the post.
It was a picture of Arcus talking to a girl, captioned with "Sweet." A sad smile crept onto Eunice's face as she turned off her cellphone, finished her milk, and lay down on her soft bed.
"It hurts so much to love you," she whispered, recalling the words Arcus had spoken to her earlier. She didn't even realize tears were streaming down her face, and she couldn't hold them back.
"You're so infuriating, Arcus. But you're still the one I want. I don't know how I'll move on from you," she murmured again. Eunice fell asleep while crying and only woke up to the sunlight streaming in.
They had no classes that day because it was Saturday, so she thought about taking her dog, Beny, for a walk. After showering, she went downstairs. She wore denim shorts that showcased her flawless, long thick legs, paired with a fitted white t-shirt that accentuated her figure perfectly.
After drying and brushing her hair, she spritzed on her candy-scented perfume.
"Eunice, you're up," her mother greeted her as she sat in the living room watching television. Her dad was not around because he was busy with his law practice.
Eunice approached her mother and kissed her on the cheek, and her mother embraced her.
"Where are you going?" her mother asked.
"I'm taking Beny for a walk," she replied. Her mother nodded and reminded her to have breakfast before leaving.
Eunice headed to the kitchen, and while eating, she heard the arrival of her older brother, probably with his classmates, as she could hear loud voices. She ignored them and continued eating the salad their housekeeper had prepared for her. After finishing, she washed her dishes.
Meanwhile, Arcus was watching Eunice from a distance. He was moving slowly, taking several minutes to wash the bowl he had used. His gaze was fixated on her legs, which were alluringly shaped.
"Sh*t," he muttered to himself as his eyes traveled up to her waist and then to her side, clearly admiring her curves. He could see her round figure due to her fitted t-shirt.
"D*mn," he said again, gripping his pants. He wanted to leave his spot but found himself unable to move his feet.
"Why are you here?" Eunice asked innocently, suddenly noticing he was right in front of her, having finished what he was doing.
Arcus didn't know how to respond to the young woman; he was mesmerized by her angelic face and plump cheeks that he used to pinch often before.
"I'm thirsty," he finally replied and went into the kitchen to get some water. Eunice watched every move he made; even though it was cold inside their house, he was sweating profusely.
"Are you going to do something?" Eunice asked shyly. Arcus looked at her while holding the glass he was drinking from.
"Why?" he asked briefly. Eunice merely shook her head in response and walked outside.
"Where are you going?" the young man suddenly questioned. Eunice didn't know what to say; she was both excited and nervous in Arcus's presence. He looked so handsome in his black t-shirt and denim pants, his well-defined muscles accentuated, and his height was quite noticeable because of what he wore.
"I'm going outside; I need to take Beny for a walk," Eunice replied, setting the glass Arcus had used in the sink as he approached her.
"Wearing that?" he asked. Eunice curiously nodded in response.
"I'll come with you; I don't have anything to do anyway since the others will arrive later," he said, signaling her to go outside.
They stepped out together and approached Beny, the dog, who was locked in his doghouse. Although Eunice was puzzled, she ignored it and let Arcus accompany her without asking questions.
As they walked, Arcus moved behind Eunice, as if trying to shield her. However, due to the difference in their sizes, he only partially covered her; his imposing presence made it impossible to completely conceal her long thick thighs.
Arcus didn't know where to focus his attention; at that moment, he was feeling different sensations. He wanted to embrace the girl and take her back to his house. He wished he could just lock her in his room so that he would be the only one to see her thick and flawless thighs. They are already in legal age, but he knew that he needed to be careful.
"Aren't you being looked for?" Eunice shyly asked; they had been quiet for several minutes, prompting her to create a topic for conversation.
"Are you trying to send me away?" Arcus replied gruffly.
"That's not what I mean! They might look for you, and I'll get blamed," Eunice answered, feeling embarrassed.
"They won't blame you; just stop asking and look at Beny instead."
"Okay," she whispered and continued to walk.
After a few hours of walking, they felt tired, so they decided to head back to Eunice's house. Eunice fetched some water for Arcus while he played with their dog. Eunice's mom wasn't around; she was likely at a meeting since she was a doctor, and Ulysses was in his room with some classmates.
"Water," she said as she handed it to him. Arcus took it and gulped it down while still holding Beny's belly. She wanted to ask something but held back.
"Don't assume too much, Eunice. I'm just bored, so I decided to join you," Arcus said amidst the silence. Perhaps that was the answer to the question she had wished to ask.
