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?

"Took you ages to come to see me," a sarcastic smile spread across his face as he stared at the guy before him. "I thought you abandoned me, now I'm behind bars."

"Why did you turn yourself in?" The guy asked, ignoring the look in the older man's eyes. He drifted his eyes from him to the surrounding. His eyes settled on the police officer standing a few walks away from them. Wielding a wooden bat.

"Do you think I would want to do this to myself?" Mr Johnson asked. Rhetorically. "If it wanted to, I have my reasons."

He leaned against his seat and heaved a deep breath. His mind trailed off. He remembered it, it remained vivid in his brain and he can't seem to get it off his chest. Who was that man? "He threatened me..."

"Who?"

"I don't know," he shrugged. "Something was odd about him. It was my first time seeing him and I couldn't make out what he looked like."
