Hello, My Name Is Cupid (Book I)

Chapter 18 - Praise, Raise And Scream

It was morning and I just parked my car in front of Heithan's. Brea and Olivia had got together a week ago and since that I constantly heard them talking about how happy they are.
I got out of my car and walked to the entrance door when I saw two women discussing about something. Looking closer at them I realized it was them - Brea and Olivia.
I walked to them while listening to their fight.

"I told you three days ago that I'd like to go out with some friends today. I don't have time this evening." Olivia snorted.

"You didn't tell me anything about those plans. How about you do next time so I don't expect to spend some time with you?" Brea crossed her arms and shook her head in desperation.

They can't be serious about that.

I stopped beside them and sighed "Sorry that I have to interrupt you but I couldn't help but had to listen to your discussion."

Both of them looked at me. Now they seemed to turn all they hate on me for interrupting them.

"We'll fix that on our own. Just leave us alone for once, Cupid." Brea demanded and turned back to look at Olivia.

"No, sorry but I have to say this but shut up, Brea. I don't know much about this fight but your argument sounds really weak. You two spent every day together since you know each other and I know you love each other, even if you don't feel it yet I know you will, so give her once day off. I bet you also want some time for yourself anytime soon." I snorted back at her. Usually I'd never talk to anyone like this, but usually no one talks to me like that either.

I was trying to help but Brea didn't accept it at all. She mumbled a "Whatever." and some inappropriate words before turning her back to me and walking off.

Olivia looked at me for a second and frowned and then she ran after Brea.

Sighing I looked at them for a while before entering the building and doing my usually routine at work.
My work today consisted of picking out pictures for a new campaign, signing a few papers but mostly I played secretary for Mr. Heithan today. I had to bring him coffee, print some papers or had telephone duty today.

The day passed by extremely slow and after eight hours of working I left the building to drive home.

I arrived at my flat and there it was again. A bottle. There was another bottle of Wing Burner in my kitchen and again there was a not added to it.

"Brother,

I thought 'More alcohol more fun' so here is another bottle for you.

I definitely need to visit you again anytime soon - was fun last time.
Until then have a nice time and don't drink too much.

Lots of love, Luce."

I groaned and picked up the bottle to put it in the cupboard where the other bottle was as well. I shut the cupboard and walked off in my bedroom.

There I got a message of Brea saying "Hey. I just wanted to say sorry for being so rude earlier that day. I hope you can forgive me and I wanted to tell you that Olivia and I are fine again so thank you."

I simply replied "It's ok and you're welcome." Afterwards I put my phone on the nightstand and switched on the TV. I spend the rest of my day with watching TV until I fell asleep.

That's how I spend my next two weeks as well - the only exception was New Year's evening. I heard about Olivia and Brea fighting every other day and then I tried to fix it or managed to. Sometimes they ended up being mad at me and sometimes they talked it out and everything was okay again. After a while it started going on my nerves but still I tried my best to help them.

After I talked with them I usually went to work and the rest of my day I either read a book, watched TV or set someone up through the internet.

Nevertheless Liv and Brea weren't unhappy. They were fighting often but when they weren't then they had been one of the happiest couple I ever came across.

I knew they wouldn't break up because of one of those fights but if they would ever have a fight about something important then their relationship may or may not survive it and I wouldn't let this happen so I kept on trying to make them forget their fights.

I suppose all human beings are like this. Even when they love each other they fight. Humans always tend to start fights because of the most pointless reasons - but that's what makes them so special. They are animals dressed in a clever, good-looking suit and try to find their place in this universe. They are one of a kind.

During this time I kept getting bottles from Lucifer. It was four of them by now and I put each one of it in the cupboard. I didn't even think of taking a sip of it still I didn't know what to do with them because Luce didn't seem to stop sending me those bottles until eventually I drank one - which I didn't.

I never would have expected that my last week on earth starts now.
