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 SUSPECT

Nino

I strode back into my room. I flopped down on my bed and stared at the ceiling. Everything was happening so fast. I can't tell what to think or what to believe. I was torn between my feelings for these two men. My heart beats for Marcus but I'm confused. I don't want to hurt the one man who was there for me from uni over a man I met three months ago.

I'm going to apply the laws of logic over the laws of the heart. A ping came from my phone, barricading my thoughts. I lazily stretched my hand over to the nightstand and picked up the phone. I tapped on the screen and saw a message from Kevin.

"Aren't you coming to work today? " He texted. "I will take care of things if you aren't coming."

"HOLY COW!" I jumped out of bed. I had already forgotten today was work after Toro pulled that stunt an hour ago.
