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?

REPETITIVE NIGHTMARE

Toro

My soul returned to my body as I watched the police officers exchange words with doctor Kenneth. Whatever they discussed doesn't interest me. I waited patiently for the doctor to be done with them.

"Also, we are sorry for mistaking you for someone else. Our bad." The senior officer said.

I forced a smile and waved my head a bit. "Not a problem."

They left. Leaving us alone in the ward with the injured little girl I can't see her face.

"You look tensed." Doctor Kenneth swung around to me. He always looked young which made me wondered when he became his doctoring work. Looking healthy and fit, well he's a doctor. "Are you alright?"

His brooding gaze lingered on me. Throwing me an assiduous stare and for a minute I couldn't bring myself to tell him. What if he sees me as a psychopath? I gulped down and retained that forced smile on my face.
