"I...I..uh..am straight " came out my stutter. Gee Es can you be more embarrassing,I scolded mentally.


"Oh yeah,then why does your heart beat so fast around me" Athena whispered in my ear sending shivers straight to my core.

I kept biting my lower lip, holding my breath,wishing the ground could open up and swallow me whole.

"This is going to be fun" I heard Athena mutter under her breath as she walked away from me.

Reaching Out To You

I watched Athy striding close to me. She walked like some straight out model from famous magazines. 


Her steps measured,her head held high and eyes unwavering. 


"Mind telling me more about yourself then?I questioned when she had just reached a few inches from me. 


"Oh no,that will be saved for some other time,right now I want to know how you got a hold of all these paintings and the art display around your walls surely it must have costed you a fortune." 


I've always loved painting ever since I can remember. When I left Poly Enterprises I had all the time in the world before I could get a job. 


So I bought my art supply and voila created some few masterpieces. 


Jade's always asked me to join competitions even if I didn't want to. She said it will open new doors for me. 


I'm quite satisfied with my job so I just do it to pass time or to clear my head especially when I was under stress. 


"Hello...earth to Esty"Athy snapped her fingers in my face.
