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?

SISTER

Nino

Yass grabbed my hands. Throwing me a skeptical look and I can't help but wonder what she wants to hear from me. There was absolutely nothing going on between us. That she walked in on us sleeping on the sofa doesn't mean there is something between us.

"Nothing," I replied quickly. "I just told you I don't know what you are talking about. How do you expect me to answer when I have no idea what you're saying?"

"What do you think of me?" A frown appeared on her face. "A 10-year-old old child?"

I took a deep breath. Looking at the way her eyes were judging me. "Well, he walked in on me when I was watching the documented clips from my childhood and I couldn't hold back from crying from the memories I had with my parents. So he comforted me and I probably fell asleep right after."

"And that's all," I added. But the skeptical look in her eyes didn't cease. "I'm saying the truth. Nothing is between us and you know I have a boyfriend."
