Juliet
"Juliet dear are you alright ? You look like you just ran a marathon." My dad asked me worriedly. I gave a wryly smile. I could see Owen smirking at this. Ohh yeah he was enjoying every bit of this.
"I'm fine dad." I grit out.
As we stepped into the elevator, I couldn't help but think what had happened a few minutes ago. His tongue, his voice, especially the way he said my name.
Why does he still have an effect on me?
The more I thought about it, the more the anger consumed me. I don't like that he of all the people still has an effect on me. Grow some balls, woman! I felt claustrophobic in this tight space. I couldn't breathe.I needed to get out.
Suddenly I stiffen when I felt something hard against my butt. I didn't need to look back.
I knew exactly who it was.
The way my skin reacts to his body. I never felt it with any man. I have had a few share of men but that's was because so I could forget him.
Forget that he existed in this world.The days in campus was petty rough both painfully and beautifully.
I never did think of him after what happened.
I thought I never had to deal with him after a certain incident. I pushed back those memories so that I can lead a life without facing such fears.
A fear of falling for him.
We got out of the elevator and headed to the office. A young beautiful looking woman approached us.
"Owen, we have the number of Gasto Lebeis. You should come contact him now."
I didn't miss the way she was allowed to use his name and the way she looked at him knowingly.

Jesus.They were fucking each other.
I could tell. I'll like to tell her that he was mine to fuck.
What am I even saying? Where is this coming from? I cannot be envious of them fucking. Let them fuck. It shouldn't bother me.
As expected, Owen smirked at her and said,"I'll be right with you."
He turned towards us. I quickly pulled out my phone so that I looked I was busy.
"Excuse me."
I didn't even look at his direction. What an asshole. Old habits die hard, I guess. As he left, I couldn't help but feel hurt. What the hell ?
Why are you thinking about going through this shit again, you mad woman!
My life sucks. Officially.
Later at the office, in a large room with just a elongated table seated at the middle with a few stacks of paper scattered around the table.
We were talking about the investments when the two fuck birds showed up. Fuck birds ? Like love birds.
Too early they showed up didn't they ? They have been out doing probably... Why do you care Juliet ?
Shut up and concentrate. But even after the superb concentration, I couldn't help but notice how their clothes were crumbled and lips swollen. Well they sure couldn't keep it in their pants, could they?
Anger consumed in me again. I had anger issues. But not like this. I couldn't help but clench my jaws so hard I thought it would break my teeth !
"Juliet dear, what do you think ?"
I better work on what I'm supposed to be doing. So I explained the company's finances and their deals. I couldn't help but show off my knowledge. I'm good at what I do. My dad was pretty proud that I brushed this all up. I wasn't surprised when I saw their expressions.

Thinking of them, made me more angry.
Visualising them fucking each other's brains got me more over the top. I can't be in here in the same room with him still in his same old dirty ways. So I excused myself and let myself out to get some fresh air.
As I walking, I looked down and could feel tears swell in my eyes.
Why am I crying over that jerk?
Bloody ass is still the same. Fucked every girl he laid his eyes on. And to think I was one of them. Geez. How could I be so naive and stupid? Stop thinking too much Juliet.
I was so caught up in my thinking I didn't see where I was going and bumped into someone. Before I could feel the crash, I felt a hand around my waist. I couldn't help but let out a laugh. Why do I end up like this ?
"Hey. Are you alright?"
A voice said.
I looked up and saw a brown soft eyes looking down at me with concern.
"I'm fine. I'm not this clumsy. Sorry about that."
He smiled and said.
"It's okay. I'm Oliver by the way."
He looked like a very neat approachable looking guy. He was quite dashing. His glasses made him look like he was ready for a hot promo shoot.
"Nice to meet you. I'm-"
I was cut off by my dad. Not now! I'm meeting someone hot. Get lost dad.
"Juliet !"
My dad looked at his arm around my waist. He frowned.
"And who is this?"
My father demanded.
I rolled my eyes. Dad can be really overprotective.
"This is Oliver."
I noticed Owen walking out and looked directly at me and then looked at Oliver's arm around my waist. I forgot how Owen could get jealous real fast. His eyes blazed and he came straight for us.
"What are you doing here, Oliver?"
He hissed. So they know each other.
"Hey cuz! I thought I drop by to see if you are up for the game?"
Cousin. I had not known Owen had such a hottie of a cousin. I must have been staring at him when he said.
"I'm sorry you were saying, sugar ?"
I blushed at that. Owen's right eye twiched at our exchange.
"I'm Juliet. Thank you for the fall. I mean saving me from the fall." I replied winking at him.
"I'm grateful that you did." He winked back.
"Ok ! You know what I'll take up that game offer. Let's go ! " Owen said in a rush.
With that Owen took off with his cousin.
Hmm if I had known better he just didn't want me to speak to Oliver. Oh so he could have any girl and not me.
Not on my watch. I am not that girl like I was back then. There is a new woman in town, baby.
" Hey Oliver ! Can I join you to the game as well ?"
They both turned. One looking like he won a lottery. The other, well lets say he was not happy.
Game set match Owen.
I will make you realise the mistake you made 7 years ago. You wait baby.
