• Chasing Her   Eleven: Crazy

  I tried so hard to force a tear to elude my eye, but my effort was in vain. The pain I felt seemed to be exacerbating, so I needed to cry out this pain. But, nothing was working. The tears weren't willing to come out.My entire body shuddered, stiff in my tracks. I could die. The least thing anyone could play with were my emotions. I was emotional to the point a heart break could affect me for weeks. It could be dangerous to my health.Had he really cheated on me? So this was real? For goodness' sake, I had given him all of me. What would—"No, no," I rejected every negative thought in my head, being hopeful that what I had seen was false. Not wanting to believe it, I managed to take my phone, attempting to watch the video again. I was pretty sure that wasn't my man. Maybe he was being framed.But, that was the instant a text came in. Numb, I clicked on the text. It was

• Chasing Her   Ten: Nightmare

  I blinked after a long, crazy, uncomfortable stare. I was kind of shocked to know he knew my name. And, why did I feel like this guy was truly Roy's brother? This was the same way I had encountered Roy, about a year ago. He had come like a ghost, seeming as if he had already known me before that night."You're not just cute, you're funny too." Tyler chuckled at me.I smiled a little. I wasn't blushing, but I liked it when anyone called me cute. "Thanks. Anyways, what would you like to buy?""I want a drink." He winked, a sneer on his lips. Gosh! Winking like Roy? Was I sure this wasn't my guy in disguise? "A drink with you."I chuckled. "I work here. No drinks with the workers.""Really?" He propped his elbow on the counter, those attractive eyes glinting. "Well, you aren't prohibited from walking home with me, right?"I dropped my hands on my wai

• Chasing Her   Nine. Pretty

  "Where is he?" Dad's voice sounded dangerous, filled with so much wrath. His hands were rolled in a fist, tugged against the armrest of his chair. Hard, his teeth were gritted. He glared at the floor intently, breathing slowly and deeply.The young dude standing beside dad's chair bowed his head, obviously fearful. "I-I don't know. He said he'll be here soon.""Where is he?!" Dad hollered at the top of his voice. He didn't just holler, he kicked the stool which stood below his knee. Woah, woah, this anger was getting too hard."I-I don't know, sir. He'll get here soon." The young man trembled as he spoke.Irritated, I gestured that he should take his leave. Dad could easily hit a glass against the innocent dude's head. It was better to prevent that.I sighed. "Being angry won't do anything. I think you should rather be grateful you didn't go bankrupt."

• Chasing Her   Eight: Argument

  Hot, Roy really was.I couldn't help but drool for him. Two ladies walked past him, muttered and giggled, and I shot them a glare even though they didn't see me. What the heck? How could they fall for my man? Silly!Roy turned around, smiled widely at me. I blinked to remain steady. I was intensely staring at him to the point I had forgotten we were in a shopping mall."Done." He said that as soon as he walked to me."O-Oh. Were they… expensive?" I asked, referring to the bunch of clothes and shoes he had just bought for me.He rolled his eyes, dropped his hands on his waist, sighed. "Renee, seriously? You still worry about the expenses?"I smiled. "Maybe."He shook his head, took the shopping bags from me, signaled we should get going. In a short while, we reached his car. He dropped the bags in the back se

• Chasing Her   Seven: Date

  I stared at Roy. He was probably deep in thoughts, so he only stared at the sky. I would admit, he was kind of different tonight. His smile wasn't wide, those eyes weren't beaming in happiness as usual, he looked so worn out.I took his hand, dropped it on my lap. When I did that, he turned to me. "Are you okay?" I asked him, quite worried."Yeah." Again, his smile was faint.I furrowed my eyes at him. "Are you sure you're Roy? I mean, you're being too weird. Did your cute smile get stolen? What's wrong?"He raised his other hand, tweaked my cheek. "You're a worrywart. I'm fine, trust me.""You've been gone for a long time, now that you're here, I feel like you aren't glad to be with me," I denoted.He chuckled. "False. I'm always glad to be with you. And, well, I'm thinking about what my mom did to you. It's kind of… upsetting.

• Chasing Her   Six: My Darling

  Roy____I glared at mom, so angry at her. Since the last forty minutes, she hadn't given me the answer I wanted. All she did was to sip from her cup as if I wasn't seated here with her."Mom, I'm asking you the same thing again, did you tell Renee anything?" I ensured I sounded harsh, enough for her to know I wasn't joking around."And what if I did?" She looked up at the sky, so much uninterest beaming in her voice.I snorted. "This isn't funny, you know? What'll dad—""Dad!" She interrupted me from speaking, turned to me. Those tears in her eyes ached my stomach, but what could I do? "Your dad is always everything. You so much care about what he thinks of you, to the point you're now doing terrible things."I sighed. "I already told you he won't harm her. And, why do you even care about this? It's not like I'm the first guy t
