God ! She's really amazing. She really lost her cool.
I just gawked at her like a headless owl. No one ever insulted me like this. Not that anyone will dare.
But I think it's my fault. I didn't play it right. I should have done it like a gentleman. Proper and posh.
I'll do it right. But after I get back from my business trip.
"Uhmmm, Sir. You have a flight to catch. So, we have to leave now."
Liam reminded me since I was just standing here in the yard planting my feet like a pole.
"Hmmm, let's leave. Make sure to have security around her 24/7. And don't make her uncomfortable "
"Of course, Sir. Should there be any codename for Missus."
"Hmmmm, HOME should be good"
"Yes, sir. We will make sure Home is safe and sound"
I walked away with my security and PA with satisfaction.
I went to the airport and boarded for the A city.It will take five hours to land.
So I reviewed some of my projects and closed my eyes to have a shut eye.Just then her name occupied my mind.
"Home! It suits her. She's comforting."

It's been a whole week since that shitty confession. And as weird as it sounds I couldn't get it out of my head.
But there's no sign of him for a whole week.
Of course, it's obvious. He was playing with me. It was just a prank.
I went on with my life with my daily schedule. Taking classes in the morning and cram schooling in the evening. Life was back to normal.
But I always felt an invisible pressure around me. But I just ignored it.

"Mom! Have you seen my angular brush? I can't find it anywhere?" I shouted to mom.
"Lily took it from your brush bag honey. She said she needs it for her assignment. Don't worry, she promised she will keep it safe and return it"
It is the weekend. As usual I was painting around the house again on a mirror. I bought pottery barn mirror in a thrift shop.
The days passed just like that and we all went to bed when I suddenly got a call from Maria.
She never calls me at this hour. Is she okay?
I quickly received her call but all I heard was her endless screeching sobs like a two year old.
She's definitely drunk and dumped for sure.
She easily falls in love and gets her heartbroken all the time.
She's such a sweet and bubbly girl. Why would anyone treat her like this?
I somehow managed to get the address of the bar from the bartender beside her.And it has to be in the middle of downtown.
This girl is really going to end up in the headlines one day. I quickly put on a hoodie and grabbed my phone and went downtown.
It was really hard to find the bar in the middle of downtown. But I somehow rescued Maria and myself out of the stinky bar.
Seriously, how did she even end up here?
But something was really wrong? I should have come more prepared.
I was wearing my bed trousers. So, it soon caught the eye of some men outside the bar. We are being followed for the last ten minutes. And there's not even a single taxi here.
If it was me alone I would have just gone for a run like Bolt. But the fact I wouldn't even have ended up here if it wasn't for this bitch.
Trust me Maria. Once we get out of here alive. You are fucking dead.
But we were soon blocked by those men. There's three of them.
Shit! Mommy!
"Hey girls, why are you leaving so early? Why don't you hang around with us"
"We can take you to good places. You will feel good."
"Fucking assholes. They are disgusting. But I'm really scared . It's not just me alone here. I have a corpse with me to Bury tomorrow," I thought to myself as I was ready to shit my pants. I really should have taken a piss before coming here.
"Hey, You are blocking her way," a deep voice sounded behind them.
They all scurried away mumbling garbage when they saw those bull-men behind them. Even I got scared at first.
"Thank you so much. We really appreciate your help." I thanked them politely and left in the taxi behind them. They might look scary but they are decent for sure.

"Maria, honeyyy. Wake up my sleeping beauty"
"Just five more minutes babe" Maria said in her half sleep.
Then she suddenly jumped up and held her head. I'm sure her brain is ready spill out of her shit skull.
"Waaaaaaahhhhh , Lilith...," she suddenly started crying her heart out. Now I feel really bad for her. There's no way I can scold her now.
So I hugged to support her as much as possible.
She was cheated on by her pilot boyfriend with a hostess on his board.
I really hope there's someone who can treasure her like the flower she is.
