Chapter 1

The kiss deepened as both tongues intertwined together smoothly. They were both on the bed as they did the act.

"May! Get up! Lazy head! Look at the time. It's after 10 already!" Sandra shouted, walking into the room.

"Oh God" May moaned and turned her face to the bed. She placed the pillow over her head after hearing her mother's loud voice.

Her mother had a frown on her maked up face. She went to the curtains and pulled it open,, allowing the harsh sunlight run across the room.

"Uurgh! Mum!" May yelled and quickly sat upright.

"You naughty girl! You know what today is,, right? It's a busy day!" Sandra said.

"Busy day indeed! Just let me sleep, urrgh!" May groaned, slowly opening her eyes.

"As if you didn't sleep enough. next tomorrow is the last day I'm gonna see you-

"It's not like I'm dying or something" May rubbed her nose and stood up from the bed.

"You don't know how much I'm gonna miss you. Urgh! This little cutie" Sandra teased, pulling her cheek.

May grunted and took her hand off.

"Mum, You can leave. I'm gonna be with you in a jiffy. Let me brush, bathe and dress up"

"Okay hunny bunny. Desert and milkshake for breakfast" Sandra gushed and ran out.

May forced a smile and grunted out aloud after seeing her mum leave her room.

"Why is she wearing heels into the room? Her make up looks like she's gonna woo a rich guy or something-

"May!" Her mum gushed, peeking her head through the slightly opened door.

May smiled.

"Yes?" She answered.

"I'm so happy... I'm gonna see you wear lawyer or judge's wig soon. Oh my God... Only the thought of it,, makes me crazy. My heart feels like it's gonna explode"

"Mum. Please just go. I wanna go into the bathroom now"

"Yeah,, have a blast"

"Blast? It's not that I'm gonna play or something in there" May said.

Sandra winked and walked out.

"What's wrong with her?" May thought as she went into her bathroom. It had colorful walls and floor tiles.

It had sink, bath tub, toothbrush, toothpaste sponge and soap containers, shower and a huge beautiful wall mirror.

May sighed and took her brush, she applied the paste on it. She pressed a button on the brush which made it vibrate. She opened her mouth and placed it on her teeth.

It began to move, vibrating in her mouth as she took it at every spot of her teeth. Her eyes were glued to the mirror in front of her. She watched her reflection as thoughts ran around her head.

First of all, She didn't want to go to Law school. If it was in Korea, it could have been better but her mother insisted she should school in Italy.

May grunted, bitterly. She even broke up with her boyfriend, Marcus cause she was going to Italy.

She didn't believe in long distance relationship,, It was trash to her. She called it quits after agreeing with her mother to move to Italy for her law school.

That young woman was just too persistent,, She is just 37. She still looks young and beautiful though. She always acted s*xy and sassy. She was a crazy woman too. Yeah, that was Sandra, May's mother.

"Wait a minute though" May uttered, after remembering her dream.

She spat out the foamy substance into the sink and eyed her reflection.

"What the hell was that dream? Why were you dreaming about Marcus kissing you! You should know you've broken up with him already! You lousy dreamer!!"

"Is everything alright there, May?" Sandra asked, with a loud voice.

"Everything is fine!" May replied.

"Okay, Be quick, okay? We don't want the good clothes getting rushed"

"Great. I almost forgot we were going to the boutique" May whispered and washed out her mouth.

After Breakfast***

"We should hurry now" Sandra smiled, taking her hand bag. She wore a blue short tight fitted skirt, which had tiny hand. She also had a huge fancy dark sun glasses on her hand.

May wore a simple purple top over a jean crazy trouser. Rather than the straight hair her mother did, She tied hers into a pony tail.

"Huh... Mum...I wanna see Sasha first" May sniffed.

"Sasha? Your baby friend?" Sandra arched her brows.

"Stop calling her a baby. She just has a cute tiny voice, that's all"

"Whatever. Why do you wanna see her? The time is ticking, dear. Tick Tock"

"I want her to follow us down to the boutique. You know I'm not gonna see her again after next tomorrow"

"I ain't got enough gas in the car for three"

"Mum? Common. Don't be selfish. What's with gas and the number of people in the car?"

"Whatever. Do as you want. Meet me outside in the car" Sandra rolled her eyes.

"Yippee! Thanks a bunch mum. I'm gonna be right back with Sasha" May gushed and ran out joyfully.

"5 minutes,, got that!"

"Got that!

"That little girl" Sandra chuckled and stylishly wore her glasses over her eyes. She slowly went out, and locked the door.

She proceeded in walking outside to her car. As she walked out, She dangled her hips and waist with her bag on her arm.

Sasha's Place***

May is Sasha's best friend. They know everything about themselves,, even their greatest secrets. They live few blocks away too.

May knew Sasha's door code so she was able to input it without much difficulty. She walked into the sitting room immediately the door opened.

"Sas-

"Wait, what the hell!" May bulged her eyes, and shook her head after witnessing the drama in front of her.

Sasha quickly stood up from Marcus lap. They had been kissing and even caressing themselves.

"May" Sasha called, with her usual soft voice.

"I can explain" She added.

"What do you wanna explain? She broke up with me already so what the hell do you have to explain?" Marcus chipped in, with annoyance.

Sasha frowned and hit his thigh.

"She's my best friend" She said, quietly.

"Look, May. I... I'm dating him now. We're both dating. We started dating the day you broke up"

"Huh? The day we broke up?" May blinked her eyes in disbelief.

"Yeah. I'm sorry but I couldn't help it. I think I love him. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you about it"

"You... don't have to be sorry. I was just being overreactive. Sorry if I spoilt the atmosphere. Carry on, I'm just gonna leave the same way I came"

"Mayyy" Sasha sulked.

"I mean it" May chuckled.

"He's right. We've broken up so we cool. Go on... Bye"

"May, wait?"

"What's it?"

"You don't hate me right? You aren't angry with me, right?" Sasha asked.

Marcus scoffed and looked away.

"Why would I be? We are... friends" May forced a smile.

"Right!" Sasha gushed with a wide smile and hurried to her. She grabbed her hand and squeezed it fondly.

"I'm really happy you are my friend. You're one in a million. So, why did you come over? Care for ramyeon? Juice? Be-

"No... I'm fine. I just came to say hello but since I've seen you, I'm gonna take my leave" May said, and took Sasha's hand away from hers.

"Okay, Take care" Sasha waved.

May nodded and walked out.

Sasha giggled and turned to Marcus.

"I just love her"

"Whatever... Come here" Marcus snorted and pulled her arm. He made her sit on his lap.

"You guys should settle your differences already. Stop being cold and too hard" Sasha frowned.

Marcus smiled and quickly pecked her lips.

"Why settle with her when I got you by my side?"

"You naughty boy" Sasha giggled and touched his nose with her finger.

"I'm gonna miss her though. She's leaving us for Italy" She sobbed.

"Let's stop talking about her, okay?" Marcus said.

Sasha sighed. Marcus pulled her waist closer and smashed her lips on her little lips, kissing it romantically.

****

May walked out angrily. She went to her mother's car, pulled the door open and went inside. She said down immediately and looked outside the window, trying to avoid eye contact with her mom.

"What's wrong with you, little lady?" Sandra asked.

"Mum... just drive" May replied, without looking at her.

Sandra scoffed, took her eyes in front and started the ignite. She started reversing the car in order to get away from the garage. She looked back as she did the work.

"Mum?" May called, and looked down.

"Yes, hunny?" Sandra answered, driving down the road.

"How easy am I to be forgotten?" May said weakly with a pale face.

"Who forgot about you, baby? Tell me. What's wrong?" She asked.

"I broke up with Marcus recently"

"Oh my. Why? Did he cheat on you?"

"No,, he didn't"

"Then why? What went wrong?"

"I couldn't handle long distance relationship so i had to break up"

"What do you mean? You could come over for break and see him. Long distance relationship works... a lot"

"....To be sincere, I was scared" May said, softly.

"Why?"

"I was scared if I left for Italy, Marcus would cheat on me or break up with me first"

"So, that's the main reason why you broke up?"

May nodded.

"You know the worst thing now?"

"Tell me about it baby"

"The day we broke up, he asked Sasha out"

"What? Did Sasha tell you that?"

"No...I.. saw them kissing"

"What the f*ck!"

"Mum? What did I tell you about the F word?"

"Oh, sorry. I mean what the heck?...So, now they're both dating?"

"Yup"

"Sasha isn't a good friend. She's a b*tch-

"Mum!"

"Sorry... Aiish! She could have told you first. Did she forget you dated him? Why did Marcus have to go that fast? They would have waited till you left,, that would have been much more better"

"Mum? We are here" May sighed.

Sandra looked and noticed.

"Yeah. Anyways, let's talk more on this later, girl. We have dresses and clothes to rock! Make sure to pick those s*xy ones. We want the hot guys drooling" She got down after parking the car and May followed.

"Mum?" May rolled her eyes.

"What? Marcus doesn't want you anymore, You need new hot guys now. Sorry, I have to say this... F*ck him!"

"Mum?!"

"Common. Let's go in... Look at this wonderful dresses. Get beautiful ones. S*xy ones too" Sandra winked.

May rolled her eyes and looked away.

"While I'm just gonna check and get for myself. Call me of you're done"

"Let's go together" May said.

"Who? Nah... No...Nope..Never"

"Why?"

"Duurrhh! Baby girl, I don't want the handsome, hot looking and rich to know I have a 20 year old daughter. I'm gonna lure them in paying the bills"

"You disgusts me" May said, and began to walk away. Sandra laughed and walked in the other direction, a different path entirely.

May looked around the designer's area.

"Why did you give birth to me if you weren't ready to be a mother. You could have just abort me" She said, inwardly with a frown.

Suddenly, her left foot hit a rack, allowing her to rush away from the place. She quickly grabbed unto something,, It was a person's shirt.

Her fingers and palm held it strongly. She looked up and saw a handsome guy held her waist,, which stopped her from falling.

May sighed in relief.

"Tha-

She couldn't complete the word "Thank you" now that the guy had coldly left her waist.

"Who's this?" He muttered before letting her go.

It was a slow-mo as she felt her body going to the ground against all odds. Her hand which was still on his top went down with her.

"Geez. What was that?" She thought and looked up. She gasped after seeing the handsome guy before her with his ripped top.

His chest was exposed since there was a big tear in his designer's top. She looked at her hand and saw the torn piece.

"Darn it!" She said and quickly stood up.

"I'm...s...s...so...sorry" She stammered, bowing her head.

"Aiish! What's wrong with you! I haven't even paid for that yet!" The guy stormed.

"Huh?" May widened her eyes.

"So, what are you gonna do?. This costs 120-

"120 dollars? I'm gonna compensate. Please, what's your name? Put your phone number so I can talk to you later. Add your bank details here,, let me wire it now" May said and gave him her phone.

The guy scoffed, and took the phone.

"The name is Ryder,, I only saved my number" He said, and returned it back to her.

"Okay,, Saved!. By the way, I'm May-

"May? May what?"

"That's my name. May" She stressed, chuckling forcefully.

"Whatever-

"You have'nt added your details. Please, your bank details. I'm gonna wire the 120 dollars now"

"Sh*t! Hello girl!"

"It's May... not girl-

"Aiish! What ever your f*cking name is. This top isn't 120 dollars. Can't you see its the latest edition! Louis Vuitton!!"

"Huh? So, how much is it?... 1,200 dollars"

Ryder scoffed aloud with a cold look on his face.

"It's 120 million dollars!"

"What?!!!!" May screamed, allowing most people around to flich to fear
