"i don't need you, and most importantly you're useless to me."

"That hurts me but I do know you like me! Do you think I can't figure it?"

"I DON'T LIKE YOU! I WOULD RATHER DIE THAN LIKING YOU!"

"WELL SAME ANSWER TO ME! THAT'S WHY YOUR EX GIRLFRIEND CHOOSE YOUR BROTHER OVER YOU! CAUSE YOU'RE TOO STUBBORN TO ADMIT EVERYTHING!"

I am Diane, an artist and film director. I do love making love films, especially about zodiac sign compatibilities. I actually believe in that compatibilities but not when I met Liam. At a cafe when I accidentally grabbed his coffee.

"A latte for Diane and Liam!!" The waitress said and put the two coffees at the counter.

I grabbed the cup from the left side without looking at the name and yes you guess that correct, I grabbed his coffee.

"Um... That's actually MY COFFEE." He said and I looked at the cup with his name in it.

I can't believe it is 11 years old and it was unbelievable because of a single coffee I have a best friend.

"Addie! Where are you? I have great news." Liam got inside without even knocking at the door.

"I'm here at the kitchen!!" I yelled to him.

"The contract got accepted!!!!" He said while jumping up and down and screaming.

"That's great to hear, since you got the contract hmmm?" I said.

"What? A coffee again?" He asked.

"Absolutely! You're the one who's gonna treat a coffee tomorrow!!!!" I said and happily mess with his hair.

"Fine! You got lucky today!" He said.

"Not only today!! Anyway isn't it Taurus month? Your month?" I asked to him but then he just gave me a 'do not dare to call it a Taurus month' look.

"Isn't it the stubborn month?" I asked again but he doesn't pay attention. I turned off the stove and left the kitchen to watch television at the living room.

"Can I eat here? This looks good and I'm hungry." He asked.

"You already trespass on my property! Just eat it whenever you want." I said and lay on the couch.

I just want to sleep again! I still didn't get it, I haven't got any projects for a month. I think it's the Taurus vibe that he brought to my life!!

Since he's the Taurus and I'm the Sagittarius, we should be definitely hating each other but it's the opposite.

"Stop your weird look at me! I smell your inner Sagittarius being disgusted." He said while giving me a stare.

"My inner Sagittarius is doing nothing! Stop involving it!" I said seriously with looking at him.

"I gotta keep going! I have taping for tomorrow. See you later I guess?" He said.

"Don't forget the coffee treat!! I'll text you later." I yelled to him as he left the house.

The apartment is a mess. I don't clean it for like months and tomorrow I have to clean the whole apartment tomorrow but tonight sleep is the best thing I need. I closed my eyes not knowing I was still watching and just like that I feel a heavier feeling and slept.

I woke up when I smell a nice breakfast being cooked at the kitchen. I stood up and saw Liam cooking at the kitchen.

"The actual f***? You literally don't know how to knock aren't you?" I asked and just as that he looked at me and come closer to me.

"Good morning, baby! Eat your breakfast!" He said and it made me looked really confused.

"Baby? Since when?" I asked.

"Since we met!" He replied and I just stood there in shocked when all of a sudden... I woke up..

"Get out of the couch, lazy bit**!" Liam said

"What the heck?! You know you don't have to slapped me that hard!!" I yelled at him.

"Yeah I know I just wanted to slap you! Hahaha!" He said and laughed that made me stare at him like the world is on slow motion.

"Heyyyy! Heyyyy!!" He said waving his hands and that brings me back to reality.

"Yes? Sorry I just zoned out." I said and he laughed again before putting his hands on my shoulders and pat.

"That's fine! I know you do like someone." He said and forcing me to say who is it!

"Kristen Stewart!!" I said and he just slapped his face.

"Everyone like her! What I mean is a non-celebrity guy or girl!" He corrected the question.

"No one! I don't like a non celebrity person!" I denied. Well he ask if I do like someone that's a NON CELEBRITY guy! It's clearly a no because he's part of the famous actor at the world.

"Well then, cook some foods! And come to my taping location, they want to see again." He said then grabbed me so I'm on his chest.

"W-what a-are you doing?" I asked trying not to show my nervousness.

"stop being a lazy bit** and cook food so we can eat." He said and chuckled.

I grabbed the nearest book and hit him.

"don't say bad words when you're at my apartment!" I said and he just rolled his eyes.

I was cooking breakfast and all of a sudden my sister was at the door step and Liam called me.

"Good morning Mr." I heard my sister greeted Liam.

"What's up, rena?" I asked but when I looked at the door step it was my older sister, Catalina.

"Cat!!!!!!!" I said and ran to her then hugged her tight.

"I can't breathe! Stop Anne!!" She said and broke the hugged.

"Sorry, I got too happy!" I said and we laughed.

"That's fine! We just moved here and we need someone to take care of my little baby, Madrid." She said and asked for a favor.

"Then where is Madrid?" I asked and looked at her confused.

"Madrid let go of my skirt." My sister said and a girl appear behind her. It reveals a cute little 4 years old. The last time I saw her was when my sister had given birth to her.

"Look at you! What a cute little girl you are." I said and carry her.

"Who are you, young man?" My sister asked to Liam.

"Really? It's Liam from the coffee shop!" Liam said and can't believe my sister don't recognize him.

"Lee!! I barely recognize you! How are you? I miss you." My sister said and hugged him then I think my sister whispered something.

"I haven't told her. And well I'm fine as usual." He answered.

"can you at least help her?" My sister asked.

"I have taping today, I might help her after the shoot." He answered.

I was still carrying Madrid and she seems to like it. When her mother left, Madrid just waved goodbye and didn't throw a tantrum.

"I called the director, he said that the shooting for today got cancelled and finding for a new main character which is a female." He said and I nodded my head.

"You're my mommy for today?" Madrid asked to me.

"I can be your mommy for today." I said and kissed her forehead.

"And he's the daddy?" Madrid asked and pointed her fingers to Liam. I looked at Liam but he just smiled.

"I'm also your daddy for today! So let me give you a hug!" He said as he carry Madrid.

They ran around the apartment and I just looked at them. Anyone that can saw us will literally think we're a family.

"Food is ready! Let's eat." I said.

Liam sat and put Madrid beside him. They were peacefully eating when I my phone rang. I excused myself for a second and picked the call up.

"Hello Diane! How are you?" The person from another line asked.

"I'm fine. Why did you call me?" I asked.

"I'll offer you the spot for the main character for one of the film and I was wondering if you want it." The person from another line said.

"Ok! Since I'll never been on a show or film for like months." I responded.

"Okay see you soon! I'll need to end the call!" He said and ended the call.

I rushed to Madrid and Liam while jumping in joy! I accidentally hugged Liam to much and when I realized it, I quickly broke the hug and go to Madrid to carry her.

"What happened and you suddenly became super happy?" He asked.

"After months of being at the home! I do have new character! Not just a character but a main character!!" I said and I can tell that he can feel my happiness.

"So you do have work again?" Madrid asked.

"Yes! But for now I'll clean the house and I'm starting upstairs." I said as I walked out of the kitchen.

I went upstairs to clean my room so Madrid can sleep if she get tired.

As I finished to clean upstairs, I saw Liam carrying Madrid and she's sleeping on Liam's shoulder.

"Our child slept on my shoulder." He said with a smile.

OUR CHILD?! the voice of him calling Madrid as our child keeps on replaying on my mind.

"Hey are you okay?" He said then it brought me back to reality.

"Yes. Just let Madrid sleep on my room." I said then went downstairs to clean every corner.

As I finished cleaning, I was really exhausted and I feel like I'm about to faint as I was about to fell to the floor someone catch me.

"Go rest now!" Liam said then I felt like I was carried by someone and the last thing I remembered is everything was blacked out.

Liam's P.O.V.

I left Madrid at Addie's room and I'm about to drink a water when all of a sudden, I saw Addie was about to fall to the floor and quickly catched her and carry her towards the living room. I put her on the sofa letting her rest peacefully and went to grabbed my phone because it's ringing.

"Babe... Can we talk about our relationship? We can still fix it." It was my ex girlfriend, Delores.

"After you cheated on me? No thanks." I said.

"I never cheated on you! It was an accident!" She said while crying on the other line.

"AN ACCIDENT?! YOU BOTH LOVE WHAT YOU BOTH DID! AND NOW MY BROTHER CANT ACCEPT THE BABY, YOU'RE GOING TO ASKED HELP FROM ME?!" I said angrily and I feel someone pat my shoulder.

"Don't yell at me please. Just let me explain." She responded and this time I can't take it and I ended the call.

I look at Addie and she looks scares of what she witnessed.

"Why didn't you gave her chance to explain her side?" Addie said and I looked at her.

"Why would I? I don't need her explanation." I said trying to calm myself.

"I know you want her to explain everything." She said.

"Just leave me alone." I said but she still stay beside me.

"YOU'RE BECOMING AS STUBBORN AS A CHILD! DON'T YOU HEAR ME? I SAID LEAVE ME ALONE." I yelled at her and it made her flinched.

"You know I can help you." She said and was about to hugged me when I accidentally pushed her to hard that she falls into the ground and I saw her forehead bleeding.

I rushed to help grabbed her but she used her strong force to pushed me far from her. She ran upstairs to her room and closed the door.

Ever since that day, we always fight over random things. Even the simple things that we don't noticed before. But I heard that her older sister had told her everything about the diary thing I made to share my thoughts and memories with her.

"LIAM! Now I know why your always being mean to me this past few days!" She said and sat beside me.

"Oh then what is it?" I asked her.

"Cause you need me! And I became busy this past few days!" She said with a smile on her face.

"i don't need you, and most importantly you're useless to me." I said harshly and her smile turned into a small smile with her eyes about to release tears.

"That hurts me but I do know you like me! Do you think I can't figure it?" She asked.

"I DON'T LIKE YOU! I WOULD RATHER DIE THAN LIKING YOU!" I yelled at her and I don't know why I suddenly yelled but I know her she'll just cry.

"WELL SAME ANSWER TO ME! THAT'S WHY YOUR EX GIRLFRIEND CHOOSE YOUR BROTHER OVER YOU! CAUSE YOU'RE TOO STUBBORN TO ADMIT EVERYTHING!" She yelled back and I admit that hurts not because she said my ex girlfriend choose my brother over me, it's because she admit that she don't like me.

After the fight, i went at the café where we used to hang out before, but when I was walking I accidentally bumped into someone and spilled the coffee at a lady.

"OH. MY. GOSH." She said dramatically looking at her T-shirt.

"I'm sorry." I said while giving her the tissue so she can clean herself.

"LIAM?" She said and I looked at her, she's my childhood best friend.

"Bella! It's you!" I said and hugged her tightly.

"I miss you!" She said and broke the hug but started to pinched my cheeks.

"You still do that! Stop it." I said with a serious face then she chuckled.

We decided to talked for a while when I remember I had to go back to Addie's apartment because I left something.

Diane's P.O.V.

I was about to go to our favourite cafe because I've been coffee free for like 5 days and I also think that Liam is also there and I might have the chance to talk to him without yelling or screaming at each other.

When I entered the café, I ordered the usual coffee and went to look for Liam and there he was sitting at our spot but... with a girl?

I started to walked towards them making them stare at me. I throw the car key that Liam left at the apartment and walked without looking back. I feel like he cheated on me even though we are not dating.

Lucky for me, I can avoid that man because tomorrow is the last shooting of our film "COMPATIBILITY." I can stay away from this man.

I feel like someone's staring at me when I looked everywhere to see who it is, I saw a lady standing at the end of my car.

"What are you doing in here, Serena?" I asked to my younger sister.

"I'm about to go home but I realized I should comfort you. I've noticed that you and Liam haven't communicate well this past few days." She said and I just listened to her.

"Well, I also know that you like him but you're just too stubborn to admit it!" She said and I think she's trying to encourage me to confess.

"So you should con-----" she was about to say it but I interrupted her.

"I have to go somewhere wanna join me?" I asked to her but she just look at me with her serious face.

"You know what? You should stop changing serious topics, well we get it you're a sagi. But as you're sister and best friend I don't tolerate your behaviour." She said and drag me inside the car.

"It's not that hard to say it, if he dumped you then I'll cry with you." She said and left.

Maybe she's right? It's not that hard to confess that I'm just too scared to say something.

I went to a peaceful place, where I can  let go my problems then cry all by myself. I even got tempted buying alcohol for myself.

"Cheers to myself for being dumb!" I said while lifting the bottle of wine.

"Okay stop that!!" Someone said but since I drunk too much my vision became blurry.

"I want more!!" I yelled with happiness.

"We have shooting tomorrow!!" The person said and now I know him but since I was too drunk I can't stop myself.

"YOU KNOW WHAT!! YOU'RE SUCH A D*** BI***!!! HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW THAT I LIKED YOU!" I yelled at him.

Liam's P.O.V.

Drunk Addie is such a liar. I followed her all the way to her favourite place! And she's drinking alcohol at the top of her car.

"Stop right now!" I said taking the bottle of wine but she still have a strong force.

"What are you even doing here?" She asked in her drunk tone.

"I decided to tell you something!" I said and I guess it's a perfect time to confess because she might never remember anything.

"What is it?" She asked as her eyes started to feel heavy.

"What's the date again?" I asked to her. Then she tried to look at her phone and look at the date.

"May 5?" She said not sure about her answer. Then she fell asleep on my shoulders.

"May 5. Mark that day because that's the day I choose you." I said and kissed her forehead before putting my head and sleep on her head.
