Filthy Rich by Atarah Yvaine (books to read fiction TXT) 📗

"Youw da bewst" I said to her with my mouth so full.

I continue eating like a mad man. While munching my food I opened my phone to check and read my emails. Yeah, wherever I go my work is with me. I also check if there is any text message from my employees.

Actually, the idea of staying here for three days makes me a little anxious about work. I still have a lot of work to do so I try to make an excuse but Kai makes a fuzz when I mention work so here, I am having a little vacation with them. Suddenly my phone keeps on vibrating because of Instagram notifications.

"A lot of people is following me on IG" I said a little shocked. On my previous account I only have five thousand followers and on my new one I already got two hundred thousand in just a span of ten hours.

"Yeah, and guess who follows you" Ali looks so excited

Huh?

"What?" I asked them with confused eyes.

Don’t tell me they keeping track of my new account? Hmm these two are suspicious...

I look at my notification and it's just too much. There are a lot of names and but my eyes focus on one name.

Tres followed me. Oh my God!!

"I think this is not a good idea. Tres Cavelli followed me." I show Ali my phone and she doesn't look surprised.

I continue looking at my notification and I also see Namika and Primo's name. Thank God I didn't see his name. I stalk Namika's account and she also have a bouncing baby boy. The baby is a carbon copy of Primo. I laughed at the pics because the eyes, the nose and the shape of Primo's face is on his baby. The only different thing is the baby's smile. It seems like he is a cheerful kid. The baby got his adorable smile from his mom. Thank God or else he will also inherit the grumpy look of his dad.

I followed them back on IG.

"Hey Kai follow me back." I commanded my brother because of all the people I follow he is the only one who didn't follow me back. Feeling famous hmmp.

"No, I don't want to see your face on my gram. Duh I'm only following one person and that's her" he pointed at his girlfriend and I cringe. He's whipped.

"Yeah, yeah cheesy lover man" I scrunched my nose and continue eating my bread. I am drinking my orange juice when another notification appears.

DeusCavelli followed you

I choke on my drink and spit it out. I cough and cough.

"What's wrong?" Ali patted my back and hand me tissues.

She takes a peek of my phone and she squealed. She is jumping and jumping. She looks like she just won a lottery while I almost die from that freaking juice.

"Hey lower down your voice. My ears are going to go deaf. Damn woman" Kai stand up and get his girl. He uses his mouth to shut her up. Damn this two.

Well, at least he did something to shut her up.

"DAMN BABE! HE FOLLOWED HER! HE FINALLY DID." She squealed when she finally freed her mouth from him.

"I know babe. I know" Kai said defeated. Sometimes I wonder how he keep up with her energy.

I immediately wiped my mouth and the spilled juice on the floor. I throw the tissues on the trash bin in the comfort room. I also wash my face for it is a bit sticky from the juice.

Gosh. Is this real? He followed me.

Yes, Heaven Amelie. He JUST followed you. Nothing more. It's not even that special. Why am I feeling a little excited? Oh no....

I already move on. Yes, I already did. I said convincing myself.

I came out from the comfort room and get my phone. I close the app and turn off my phone.
Maybe this is really a bad idea.

I walk planning to go back to my room.

"Where are you going huh?" I heard my brother ask but I'm not in the mood to answer him so I just continue walking till I reached my room. I sit on the sofa and poke my forehead.

"You are ruining your own peace of mind." I scolded myself. I am thinking twice if I will delete my new account or keep it. Am I really ready for this?

"Augggg" why is this a big deal to me? It's been four freaking years. Why am I acting like this? Why am I feeling like this?

I lay in the cold floor staring at the ceiling of my room. I don't want to overthink things. After pondering things, I stand up and open my laptop. I busied myself in my work again. At least I have something to keep me company and alive. Good thing the resort send me dinner or else I won't make any effort to even stand up and get myself some food.

I sleep again with my laptop beside me. This is a routine and I already use to waking up with this set up.

The next morning, I woke up around five thirty. I wear my sports bra and short then slide on my running shoes. I suddenly have the energy to go for a run and maybe caught a glimpse of sunrise. I also wear my earphones with me.

I go out and it's a bit chilly outside. I run in the bay walk where I can freely feel the cold sea breeze. I run back and forth because I don't want to go far away. It is also the best spot for the sunrise.
