Sugar (Jericho Adam)

.

Alexa reading while sleeping face down. Very comfortable with his satin nightgown, a piece of tank top and super shorts. Alexa turns on the loudspeaker she connected to her smart phone. Playing a trendy song so that the apartment is not too quiet.

Alexa was a bit surprised when she heard the door lock open. Alexa just stuck out her head and smiled welcoming Yericho.

Yericho, smile back at Alexa. Go inside relaxed. He just put it on the sofa. Go to the fridge and get a cold beer can out of there. Loosen the tie before sipping the drink.

Approach Alexa and lie down, making Alexa's back a pillow.

"Daddy, have dinner?" ask Alexa.

"Yet. You?"

"Ale, not yet." Alexa replied, his eyes still follow the movement of Yericho

"What do you want to eat? want to eat outside? or just a message?" yericho asked, closing his eyes.

"Order, Daddy seems tired if he comes out again."

Yericho chuckled, still closing his eyes.

"Hn. Whatever message you want, I'll go with it" replied Yericho.

"okay." Alexa picked up her phone and ordered suki and a meat grill along with her tools. And back to reading the book.

Yericho opened his eyes looking at the ceiling of the apartment. His eyes focused on the flashing lights up there. Alexa's back is quite comfortable, Yericho moves his head, making Alexa giggle amused.

Yericho got up and lay face down also next to Alexa. Their heads are aligned and very close.

"Read what?" yericho whispered while peeking at the book Alexa was reading.

"Novel romance," replied Alexa whispering as well.

"Daddy, look." Yericho was still whispering.

"Ale was embarrassed that daddy read," Alexa replied in a whisper.

Yericho smiled at it. Strange as it was, they exchanged whispers when there was only them there.

"What makes you ashamed?" Yericho took Alexa's hair child and hooked it behind her ear. Stroking the side of her face gently with her index finger all the way to her chin. And bring Alexa's face closer to kiss her lips slowly.

"Sweet" Jericho whispered as he put some distance between their lips.

Alexa looked at her Daddy was full of admiration. He was always fascinated by the face of Jericho. Alexa pulled out her tongue to lick Jericho's lips. Yericho's eyes could not be separated from Alexa's gaze that tempted him to do the same.

Yericho's hand was already in his satin shirt, stroking the bare back of Alexa who was not wearing a bra. Yericho glued his tongue to Alexa's. Their eyes were glared, until they heard the doorbell ring.

Alexa turned her head back, "Our order has come" she whispered before Yericho's lips.

Yericho quickly pulled on Alexa, holding her back from standing up. Alexa looked at Yericho in wonder. The doorbell rings again.

"You don't really want to open the door in a kayak suit, do you?" ask Yericho.

Alexa did not reply, Yericho stood up and walked in to receive their order. Somewhat surprised by the equipment and cooking materials sent by the courier.

"Let's take another four hours from now huh, sir." The courier explained to Yericho who looked still confused.

Alexa approached is complete with a sweater and trousers.

"Ale, rent barbeque equipment," Alexa said in response to Yericho's confusion.

Yericho nodded in understanding and paid the bill. While Alexa brings everything she ordered in. He set it on a small folding table that Yericho had just seen.

"Now you can rent the tool as well as buy the ingredients," explained Alexa.

"okay." Yericho responded briefly, while watching Alexa cheerfully arranging the materials on the table.

"You look happy" murmured Yericho.

"Yes. Thanks Daddy. Ale can eat well," replied Alexa who smiled widely.

Yericho reached out his hand to caress Alexa's hair dear. Before taking over the tongs and start grilling the meat.

The Deer Eye (Christian Geoff)

.

.

There was nothing special about Chris and Vania's return trip. Vania was still silent when they left yesterday. Chris felt a little awkward starting the conversation again. Chris was a little worried, was pretending to be fooled a good idea? Should she be honest with Vania if she finds out that Vania set her up so badly?

Vania was touching her heels. And a little grimace. Chris looked towards Vania's shoes. Vania hasn't changed her shoes since Friday night. Bizarrely. Think Chris.

Vania, her secretary whom Chris knows is a woman who always puts fashion and appearance first. Chris knew every day Vania would change her shoes.

"No, Sir. All my shoes are still in the old boarding house." Vania answered while holding her back again

"Not moved yet?" ask Chris.

"Not yet, sir." Vania bit her lips nervously.

"Do I need help?"

"No need, sir."

"Nia, if you're in trouble, I hope you don't hesitate to say. I might be able to help." Chris seriously said that. He wanted Vania to be open to what she was going through. What's in Vania's old kosan.

"Yes, Sir. Thank you," Vania replied as she turned her face away, avoiding Chris' gaze.

"On last night ...." Chris did not continue his words. He saw Vania's rather stiffened body.

Vania ventured to look at Chris who was looking at her. Chris bit his thumb.

"Evenings, though I don't remember it. I hope you're not hiding anything from me" Chris said.

Chris wanted to emphasize his words. He hoped that Vania would not continue her foolish actions. Whatever he's based on, he's done that to Chris. However, Chris does not want to lose Vania as his secretary.

Vania did not reply, she was still staring at Chris with her innocent looking eyes.

"Sir Chris, Vania wasn't Vania six years ago whom Mr. Chris considered a child. Vania is old enough to understand what Vania is doing" Vania said.

To be honest, Chris did not understand the meaning of Vania's words. But eventually he did not want to continue their ambiguous conversation. Like Chris who did not catch the meaning of Vania's words, Vania did not seem to understand the meaning of Chris' words before.

Chris sighed, turning his face to the window of the plane. For now, he did not want to think of anything.

The Red Umbrella (Nicholas Geoff)

.

.

Nicholas stared at his cell phone screen, considering something. He wanted to get to know Monika further. Not only know the name and where the monica works. Nicholas realized, it turned out that he did not have much experience about this.

Nicholas finally sighed before pressing the phone button. I hope Monika picks up her phone. I was a little nervous when I heard the phone call.

"Hello," said monika over there.

Nicholas smiled at the soft tone of monica.

"Hi, this is Nicholas," said Nicholas quite confidently Monika recalled him.

"Mr Gentleman?" asked Monika in a slightly amused tone.

"Yes .. connected to you by the red thread." Nicholas laughed at the end of his sentence. He was amused himself hearing that.

"So ... have you given up any formality with me?" monika asks when Nicholas is no longer speaking formally to her.

"Hearing you speak so formally reminds me that we are strangers." Nicholas replied with a deep voice.

"We are indeed strangers" Monika replied, there was a smile in her words that Nicholas could feel.

"Well, how can I not be a stranger anymore?" nicholas asked, full of antispaces.

"What's your motive, approaching Me?" asked Monika curiously.

Nicholas did not immediately reply, he was silent for a moment.

"I'm actually curious too. You want to help me?" Nicholas was a bit nervous waiting for Monika's answer. If Monika decides not to respond to Nicholas, it seems she does not want to pursue something difficult. He's too lazy.

"All right." Monika said that while holding back her laughter.

Nicholas pecked for a moment. Why does it feel so good.

"How do I start?" asked Nicholas who managed to hide his satisfied tone.

"Can we meet this Friday?" Nicholas answered his own question with a question.

"Alright" replied Monika.

"May I keep in touch from time to time?" Nicholas asked a bit awkwardly.

"Happy," said Monika, making Nicholas smile.

"See you later then." Nicholas ends his conversation with Monika. And ended her phone call when Monika said see you too.

Nicholas stared at his old cell phone screen, feeling strange to himself. Before, pocket his phone again. He lit a cigarette and looked out his office window. Looking at the sky looks so hot. Nicholas was blowing his cigarette smoke. Before smiling considering Monika's laughing face yesterday.
