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?

THE PACKAGE ( TWO )

Nino

"Toro," I quickly stood up and unlocked the door, I dashed in and scrambled towards the stairs. The sitting room looks unscathed, not a single piece of stuff is thrown around or out of place. I couldn't identify this fear in me as I walk to his door, my pulse quickened with so much uncertainty. I took a deep breath and turn the knob, I open his bedroom door and met an empty room. His bed was well-dressed, and nothing about his room looks off or out of place.

But where is he? He didn't even inform me that he will be going out. What if something has happened to him? And the package, who left it there? Who is after us? Dozen of guesses wrecked my mind and they all went to Joana's husband. If he's the one, why is he doing this? As Toro said Mr. Walker isn't the type to beat around the bush, he lurched at his prey directly. I want to believe he isn't the one doing this but I can't help but suspect him.
