SAGE

I woke up with throbbing pain in between my legs. An evident result of what happened last night. My body feels warm because of the huge arm that was wrapped around my naked body. I gasped and quickly covered my mouth to stop myself from making any sound. Everything becomes clearer now. I couldn't believe that my plan had succeeded. I slept with a stranger. I stared at a sleeping man beside me. I tried to memorize every inch of his gorgeous face, for I knew that this would be the last time that we'd be seeing each other.

"Fck!" I cursed loudly. I was startled by the sound of my phone ringing. I quickly grabbed it from my bag as I walked briskly towards the elevator. I was pressing the button in panic as I kept looking at the door of the room where I came from in fear that it would suddenly open. I felt relieved when the elevator door swung open. I rushed inside before I answered the call. "Where the hell are you, Sage?" Hillary said from the other line. I was with her last night. at the bar.
