At Melina’s,,,,,
My gaze focus at the entrance, wondering why Brittany isn’t here yet.
Javier and I have long arrived here,,, we’ve being here since 4:15pm, now it’s 4:56pm.
“I wonder what is keeping her!” I muttered to myself.
“Aurora!!” A finger snapped in my face brought me back to reality.
Javier narrows his eyes as if trying to figure something out.
“You seem worried” he states.
“Really?”
“Yeah,,, is something bothering you?”
“No”
“Come on, you clearly have something on your mind,,, do tell me”
“It’s nothing, really”
He folds his arms across his chest and lays back on his chair.
He studies my expression, I put up a fake smile to deceive him. But I seem to be failing at it, I’m very worried about Britt and that is something I can’t hide.
“Aurora, tell me the truth, tell me what is bothering you”
Ok,,, I guess I will have to tell him the truth.
“Well,,, I’m supposed to be meeting my friend here 26mins ago, but she still isn’t here, I’m scared something might be wrong”
He frowns.
“Wait,,,, hold up a sec,,, I thought we came here because you wanted to make it up to me”
Uh-oh,,, bursted!
I blinked innocently and shows him my cutest puppy eyes.
“Well,,, it’s,,, you know,,,”
“I don’t know, tell me”
“Taking you out is the only way I could leave the mansion effortlessly”
He bangs his hand on the table light and narrowed his eyes down at me.
“So,,, you tricked me again!”
“Kinda” I blinked innocently.
He falls back on his chair, clinging to his heart.
“Funk! I feel so used”
I chuckle.
“Sorry”
“You just broke my heart!” He huffed and look away from me.
I stand up and went to his side, I pinched his cheeks gently.
“Awwwn,,, is wittle Javier angry?”
“Of course, I am!”
“What will I do to make you forgive me?”
He stays silent and did a little thinking.
“How about we visit our favorite place tomorrow?”
“That’s your price?”
“Yeah,,,?”
“Ok,, but,,, ”
“Rora?!” Britt’s voice cuts me off.
I turn and see Brittany, she look so worn out. I quickly rush to her and take her into my arms.
“Ow!” She winces.
I pull away from her with a frown.
“Are you injured?”
She nods.
“Come on, let’s sit down first”
I lead her back to our table and help her sit down.
She looks at me, confusion clearly stated in her eyes.
“Oh, let me introduce you,,,, Britt, meet Javier, the General’s younger brother and my only friend in the mansion”
I turn to Javier.
“Meet Britt, my best, best friend”
Javier stretches his hand and shakes Britt’s.
“Hello, nice to meet you” he said.
“Same here”
Then there is an awkward silence,,, I guess that’s what happens when two strangers meet.
“So,,, I’mma gonna go to the restroom” Javier said.
I tell he’s tryna give us some privacy.
“Ok,,, take your time, please”
He nods and leaves.
I turn back to Britt and take her hand in mine.
“Britt, what happened? What did Eric do?”
Her eyes turns red.
“He has been lying to me, Rora!” She said in a broken voice.
“He has been lying about what?”
Tears starts rolling down her cheeks.
“All these years, I have put so much trust in him,,, I believed him and him wholeheartedly,,, but Eric took me for granted,,, he has been lying to my face,,, ”
She sobs, I rub her shoulder gently.
“What did he lie about?”
“I walked in on him with a woman,,, they,, they,,,,, ”
She couldn’t complete her sentence.
“Have you talked to him? Who knows,,, what you saw might just be a misunderstanding”
“I did,,, he said he owes me no explanation,, and when I pushed it too hard he slapped me and left,,, ”
I bang on the table.
“That ba$tard! I have always suspected he’s an unfaithful dog! And besides who gave him to right to slap you!”
“The woman came by later and told me she’s pregnant for him,,, that’s why I didn’t come early as planned,,,,, Rora, I’m so heartbroken,
Why did Eric do this to me, I love him,,, I love him so much”
She sobs harder. I put my chair closer to hers and hug her.
“Don’t worry,,, I will make Eric come back and beg you,,, also he isn’t worth your tears.
Don’t waste your precious tears on a dog like him,,, just let him go,,, take a look at yourself in the mirror, you are young, beautiful and sexy, any man would kill to have you by their sides.
So Eric is a fool,, a big fool and trust me he doesn’t know what he’s lost”
She didn’t stop crying,,,
“But I love him, I don’t think I can forget about him”
“Of course you will forget about him soon,,, there are better men than him in the world”
I continue telling her encouraging words as she sobs.

“Javier!” Someone called as I step out of the restroom.
I raise my head and see my friend, Maxwell.
“Max?”
We quickly did our bro handshake, bumping our shoulders.
“Jesus! Max, what are you doing in New York? I thought you were in Japan”
“I came back for my grandma’s funeral”
I take a step back and view him.
“Man, you’ve changed” I said.
“You too, I couldn’t recognize you at first sight”
“Are you serious?”
“Yeah, I mean I saw you sitting over there”
He points towards Aurora.
“I saw you sitting with your girlfriend but I wasn’t sure it was you, until you stood up and head here that I confirmed it was you”
We shared a laugh.
“Well, it’s good to see you, how is your wife and kid?” I asked.
“They are fine but I left them in Japan, my wife just had our second child,, she can’t go through the stress”
“Wow! You have your second child already?!”
“Yeah!”
“Ok, it’s official,,, I really need to get married now”
We laughed, he turns and look at Aurora. She is saying something to her friend, it’s obvious she is trying to cheer her friend up.
“Your girlfriend is hot,,, what are you waiting for, hurry up and propose”
I look at Aurora and smile, I wish she is my girlfriend.
“She is not my girlfriend!” I told him.
He frowns and give me the ” really” kinda look.
“We are just friends”
“But I think you make a perfect match and I know you think of her not just as a friend”
He’s right.
I know I like Aurora but I want to be sure of what I’m feeling,,, I want to know if what I’m feeling for her is r©mantic or platonic.
“You better make a move on her before someone else snatches her from you” he advised me.
“I heard you,,, but I need to leave now, maybe we can catch up some other time”
“Yeah, take care, bro”
“You too”
Then we parted, he went back to his table and I head back to Aurora and her friend.

“You aren’t gonna beg him, he cheated on you and he deserves to,,,,,”
“Ahem!” A clearing of throat cuts me off.
“Aurora, I think it’s time we head back to the mansion,, my brother wouldn’t like it if we come back late”
“But my friend”
Britt squeezes my hand.
“Don’t worry, you can go, I will be fine”
“Are you sure?!”
“Yeah, I will call you later”
“But,,,,,, ”
“I will be fine, I promise”
I nod and stand up.
“Don’t forget to call me”
“I won’t”
I give her a brief hug and turn to Javier.
“Shall we?” He asked.
“Yeah”
I wave at britt before going out with him.

After a fast and short drive, we made it to the mansion.
“Javier, I’m kinda tired, I think I need a long warm bath,,, so I will be in my room”
“Alright,,,, I think I need a bath too, so see you later”
“Yeah”
I head towards the stairs that leads to my room.
I got in my room and fall on my bed, a long sigh leaves my mouth.
Not up to five minutes, I hear a knock on my door. I stand up and rush to the door, I open it and see Brandon standing outside.
“Doctor Aurora, the General wants to see in his room”
“Why does he want to see me?”
“I can’t say”
Hmm, I just got back, I’m feeling tired and I need a good rest, I can’t attend to him tonight.
Maybe I should lie.
“Doctor Aurora, please come with me”
“No, I can’t. Tell the General I’m sick and it contagious!”
“What?”
“Tell him I’m sick”
“He,,, ”
“Just tell him that, please”
“Yes, ma’am!” He leaves.
I shut my door and breath out.
“Phew! I can get good sleep tonight, no one to order me and force me into massaging them till dawn” I said to myself.
I take off my shoes and jump on my bed.

“General, doctor Aurora can’t give you a massage tonight” Brandon reports.
“Why?”
“She said she is sick and it’s contagious”
“That’s nonsense!” I growled.
This doctor is getting on my nerves,,,, she was very well this morning,,, she must be lying.
“Let’s go to her room!”
“Sir, she said it’s contagious”
I glared at him and he keeps quiet immediately.
“Let’s go!”
“Yes!”
I don’t care if she is really sick, she broke my rule,, she have to face the consequences!

?? I love it when you call me senorita??
?? I wish I could pretend I didn’t need you??
?? But every touch is ooh la la, is true la la??
I shake my hips to the music playing on my phone as I sing along, and combing my hair at the same time.
I just took a shower and I’m already in my nightie.
I drop the comb on my bed and continue swaying my body to the music, the music got in my head and I close my eyes involuntarily.
Suddenly my door burst open and I turn.
The General stands by the door, Brandon standing next to him with two other guards behind them.
The General look so furious!
“I heard you are sick,,, but I can see you are very healthy and full of energy!!” He growled loudly.
Oh no!
What should I do now,,,, maybe I should act sick.
I start coughing.
“General,,,” cough “I’m cold” cough “I was just trying to do some exercise” cough “to keep myself warm” cough vehemently.
I start shaking to prove my point.
“Shut up! You think you can fool me with your weak acting!!”
I jumped into my bed and cover myself with my blanket.
“I’m really sick, General believe me”
“Sick or not, you must receive your punishment for breaking my rule!!”
Punishment?!
No, no, no,,,, he’s gonna give me military punishment.
I quickly jump up from my bed and knelt in front of him.
“My most handsome General in the whole world,,, please forgive me,,,,,”
“You don’t know what I look like, so don’t call me handsome!!”
Wait,, he’s right. I’ve never seen his face, he’s always wearing mask.
An idea crosses my mind, I stand up and smile.
“Right, I don’t know what my boss look like,,,, how about we remove the mask and see the handsome face behind it”
I reach out my hand to remove his mask, but he catches my hand quickly in a tight grip.
“Don’t. Touch. My. Mask!!”
I nod quickly and bite my lower lip to prevent any painful grunts from coming out.
“Guards take her to the dark cell, I will punish her tomorrow!”
“D-dark cell?”
Not that please,,,, I hate dark places and I get scared,,,, it makes me feel as if those bad people are coming to get me.
I shake my head.
“General,,, we can talk about this,,, how about you give me another punishment?”
“No!” He turns to the guards. “Take her to the dark cell!!”
“Yes, General”
“No, no, no, no,,,,, ”
But they didn’t listen to me, they grab my arm and pull me outside despite my pleading.
“General, General, let’s negotiate,,”

“General, are you sure about this? I mean, you can’t sleep without her,,,,”
I send him a harsh glare, that shut him up.
“What do you mean? That she has become my sleeping pills now?!”
“No, sir, but,,,, ”
“But nothing!! My insomnia is cured, I can sleep whenever I please,,,,,, and it has nothing to do with that stupid doctor!!”
“But she makes you fall asleep quickly”
“Shut up if you don’t know what to say!! Now listen, I will prove to you that I can sleep without her!!”
“Ok!” He said in a tone that says he doesn’t believe me.
“Do you think I can’t?!”
“I dare not, sir!!”
“Better! Let’s go!!”
I have being tolerating that girl because Brandon thinks I can’t sleep without her by my side,,,,
But tonight I’m gonna prove him wrong!
