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?

I stare across the whole room. I felt my stomach twist as the dusty smell passed through my nose. I press my inhaler into my mouth and wore my nose mask. I climbed a small old mahogany cupboard to reach the awning window, I lift my toes and pushed the window open. A new rush of night breeze swept across my face. Messing up my hair. I tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear raising my eyes to the sky. The stars twinkled with so much radiance. I look at the tiny stairs behind it in the backyard, I could see the streets, the meadows and the tall trees.

I felt the calmness in me staring at everything that was in sight. I don't mind getting lost in space. Watching the calm night from here was thrilling, why didn't I think of that? I sighed. My muscles relaxed as I watch the dancing trees.
