"Love is a cycle. When you love, you get hurt. When you get hurt, you hate. When you hate, you try to forget. When you try to forget, you start missing... and when you start missing... you'll eventually fall in love again."
Tristan"Where are you? Why the hell didn't you tell me that you moved out of the house!" I yelled over the phone."I'm sorry....""For Christ's sake, Mia. What is wrong with you?" I was so upset arriving this morning in our California mansion after four months of absense and finding my sister, Mia gone. Lance Stewart, my stepfather and Mia's biological dad was left in the house with the housekeepers. "I did everything for you and you're repaying me with this!""Tristan, let me explain.""You should give me a good explanation young lady... I can't believe you did this to me. You even told Lance and the rest of the staffs here to keep this a secret from me, huh?""I'm really really sorry Tristan. It was just for a meantime... I... I'm going tell you... eventually... I'm just waiting for the right timing." Mia stammered."Right timing? HA! Where are you now? Tell me!""I... I... um... I... I'm still here in California... um... with Stella.""Stella?" My tone mellowed down hearing Stella's name. I felt relieved. I thought she was with someone... a boy... a man... whatever... who would promise her the world, the sun, moon and the stars... and in the end, dump her.Oh God! I was getting paranoid. I had weird imaginations on where Mia was right now. I couldn't accept the fact that she was growing up and moving out of my care. Yes, I was very protective of her - more than protective of her own father, Lance. I loved my little sister, and she was the only biological family that I've got."You don't have to move out when you're just staying here in California." I said to her. I couldn't help being suspicious all of a sudden. What the hell is she up to? And why keeping this a secret?"I know... but I just want to be independent, do things on my own. I'm twenty one now Tristan and I want you to treat me like a grown up woman." She explained and sounding firm - like a mature woman.I heaved a frustrated sigh. She was right. I was still treating her like she was twelve years old. I guess it was time to accept the fact that she was finally a woman."Okay... if that's what you want. But you should have told me before moving out. I feel bad that you're keeping this a secret from me.""I'm sorry.... You are always so busy and I don't want to bother you... and... okay... to be honest, I was scared too. You know... you have a terrible temper.""Terrible temper? You know me so well Mia, I just don't like people lying to me."She was suddenly silent. I knew something's going on there. Then I heard a man's voice.Damn it! "Mia! I thought you're with Stella? Who is that?" I felt my blood rose suddenly going up to my head, flaring my temper."Um... I... its... um..." She stammered again."Let me talk to Stella, now.""Stella is not here... I... I...""I thought you said you're staying with Stella. Tell me Mia... I want the truth.""I'm sorry Tristan... I... I'm with Stella's brother... Xander."***It didn't take long for my personal assistant, Jeff to find Stella's home in Bevely Hills. And it was a bad idea seeing her there.She was swimming in the pool when I arrived in her place. Her face showed a surprise expression the moment she saw me, like she was caught off guard. But immediately with her usual confident composure, she went out of the water in poise, with her head held high."What do you want?"What do I want? You. Definitely YOU.I was disoriented for a while. Looking at her... so gorgeous. She was so strikingly beautiful without any makeup on. She looked like a goddess emerging from the water in plain white two-piece skimpy bikini - so confident and stunning. She had a perfectly gorgeous body, slender but curvy.She was ascending the steps of the pool coming towards me. With every step she took, it looked like she was floating. I followed the movement of her hands as she wiped the water off her eyes and slid it down her slender neck to her breasts then down to her stomach and thighs.Oh God... I would love to have my hands just there to feel if her skin was as smooth as it looked.Dammit, what is wrong with me?She went to the nearby table and took the towel. She wiped her cheeks and neck then faced me again."You deliberately did this." She frowned then raised one eyebrow at me. Her hands held her slim hips. "What are you talking about?""Mia... and your brother!"Her eyes widened and glared at me angrily. "Are you crazy? What do you think did I do?""You hate me so bad that you used my sister to get back at me." I snapped at her.She laughed at me then suddenly gave me an angry look. She poked her finger on my chest. "You are really crazy. They're in love.""In love! HA! I can't allow that. NOT with your brother.""Excuse me?" "You know damn well the reputation of your brother. He's always in nightclubs, in expensive holiday resorts, flying his private plane in party to party and always with different female company. I won't allow my sister to have an affair with that kind of man. He's a playboy!"Her eyes widened again. "He is not! He is a businessman, naturally he has to socialize... to mingle with different people.""Don't fool me, Stella. He will just hurt my sister.""Of course not. Xander loves Mia, a lot!""Do something about it. I don't care how you do it... I just don't want them together. Talk to Mia and convince her to come back home, to us. I don't like your brother for my sister. Is that clear?"
StellaOh God.... Help me. My patience is running out. I hate him!I was surprised seeing Tristan here in my home. I was caught off guard! And of all the unfortunate times, he arrived while I was here in the pool, swimming and wearing my skimpiest bikini. Oh gosh... it was very embarrassing.Hmp.. and now he was saying mean things about Xander. I couldn't allow that. My brother was a decent and respectable man. I knew him better. He helped my father ran our businesses. Tristan believed the gossips in the tabloids and internet about Xander!I looked at Tristan, hating him more right now. "And who do you think you are ordering me like that?" I stepped back, away from him. I couldn't bear being near him. The hate I felt was so overwhelming. "The problem with you is that you haven't experience love... you are so used with the company of your bimbos that you didn't know how it feels to be in love. You should try it sometime, so you would feel how it is to be human."He laughed and stepped forward, looming over me. "Why, have you been in love?""Of course! And... it's none of your business!" I stepped back again... and he was stepping forward towards me. His eyes never leaving mine.Then I saw the change in his expression. Suddenly there was pain... and rage. "Yeah, I forgot. So when is the wedding?" He said with a twinge of bitterness in his voice.Wedding? My goodness... he knew about Xander's proposal last night? I thought it was a secret. But wait... "What did you say?""You're engage with Eros, right?" Oh darn... I was shocked. He knew about the arranged marriage. "You know about it?""Yeah." He smirked at me.My goodness... I want to erase that smirk off his face. He's acting like a real bastard."Well, best wishes to me then. I'm happy and so in love. And soon, I'm getting married to your cousin. So that makes us cousins also, right?" I said, provoking him."I will never accept you as my cousin." He gave me a murderous look then he spun around and left.
