HER ADDICTION

What do you think you are doing?' She abruptly stood to her feet, pushing the man away from her. 'And who are you? What are you doing in my house and kitchen?' The unknown man rose to his feet, wearing a puzzled look. "Your house? Your kitchen?" "Yes," Nino tried to sound confident even though mere looking at him sent cold blood down her spine. "A burglar won't be treating himself to dinner so who the heck are you?" "I should be asking you this," his cold impassive voice came again. "Who are you and what are you doing in my house?" After being cheated on by her boyfriend. Nino learnt her house has been sold to a complete stranger, the news of her parent's house being sold by the man her parents borrowed a loan from and couldn't pay back before their death. The news hit Nino Peterson to the core. She swore to take back her parent's house but when she realized the amount the man bought her house, she knew she couldn't pay him on time or send him packing either. So the two reached a compromise that she will still live in her parent's house until she was able to pay back the amount the man paid on her house. But will she be able to live under the same roof with a man knowing he's a complete stranger and the atmosphere will not be the same anymore? And when she also learns the truth about the man living under the same roof with her, would she be able to deal with it?

RENEWAL OF CONTRACT

I flung my eyes open as a ray of light seeped into my room. I groaned as my body ached and for some reason, my bed was hard and cold. What happened to its fluffiness? I rubbed my bleary eyes, meeting the ceiling and sat up that's when it dawned on me I was on the floor not on the bed. Did I fall off the bed and slept on the floor? I shrugged and forced my legs to stand up even though my body was cold and refusing to comply with me.

I lazily walked to the window, there was a pearly glow in the sky and the melodic birdsong drifted in. The day was crisp and clear. The sun shone softly on the city streets as I watched the panoramic view of the city, bringing with it a flurry of early morning activity. I gazed at the city watching the tiny people walking around. Ready to begin their daily activities.
