Give Me A Break

Vic and Meghan are childhood best friends. Both vowed to take care of each other when they were still young. Soon… both of them grew up, sharing happiness and sadness together. As Meghan grew up as a pampered child, she always gets everything she wants. But for Vic, he grew up in a hard way as everything must be done by himself so he became matured and independence. Meghan moved into Vic’s house when she had a fight with her housemates for one silly reason, she wanted to go to Paris with them but they gave her lots of excuse not to go along. She felt hurt and went straight to someone whom she knew won’t make her in pain, Vic. Even though Vic told her for millions times not to act so childish but she stubbornly refused to move back. As her best friend, he just shrugged it off, maybe already knew her since young and let her taking the empty room in his place. Like a happy little girl, she agreed to follow few rules made by him. One, don’t make the place in mess. (Meghan always throws her belonging everywhere but because of this rule, she has to collect back all the things as Vic refuses to pick them up or he will pick them up but straight away throws them into the dust bin.) Second, don’t bring anyone to the house especially boyfriend. (Vic doesn’t like anyone especially man to come into his house without his permission as the house looks more like a crazy one with Meghan loves to put the flowers and things she receive all around the living room and other rooms, even making Vic’s things ‘disappear’ under her things.) Third, don’t bring any reporter to the house and no photo shooting in any part of the house. (Vic hates reporters very much.) Fourth, if she wants to go somewhere for few days, tell him first so he won’t need to cook for two. (Meghan can cook but she just pushes the responsibility to Vic, too lazy) Fifth, never tell anybody where she lives or with whom she lives with. (Vic expects Meghan to respect his privacy as he does to her.)

You've changed

Vic sighed heavily, looking outside the window glass. He couldn't believe that he broke up with the one he likes because of that Meghan. How could he be so foolish?

He then gasped to see her, to see Annie, walking alone. He wanted to go to her, apologize but… he sighed heavily, canceling his thought. He stirred the coffee slowly while waiting for the lunchtime over.

..........................................…

Meghan smiled, waiting for Vic to arrive home excitedly. She couldn't wait to show him the tie she bought.

"I'm home," he announced slowly. She quickly approached him, hiding the little box behind her back.

"How was your day today?" she asked. He sighed.

"Like usual…" he replied, walking to his room, closing the door. She stood there, stun. Why… why has he changed? He kept walking to his room, no more routine that he always does. She looked at the blue box sadly, walking into her room.

..........................................…

Meghan looked at Vic as he quietly eating his dinner. She could see that he doesn't have any mood. But… why?

"Sorry…" he said, quickly wiping the tea with a sponge. She looked at him worriedly.

"Are you alright, Vic?" she asked. He gave her a smile.

"Of course I am. Why do you think I'm not?" She could see that he was faking the smile. She sighed, putting down the bowl and the chopsticks.

"You are not alright. I know it," she choked out, looking at him sadly. He sighed heavily.

"I'm just stressed with my job, that's all," he lied. He actually missed Annie very much. Meghan looked at him closely.

"Really?" she asked suspiciously. He nodded.

"Yes, yes. Come on, finish off this food. I need to rest," he urged her. Smilingly, she continued back her eating. He watched her, sighing secretly.
