Chapter 8

“WOAH, WE were all waiting for you. What took you so long to come down?” Jessile said the moment we went to the buffet area. They were all sitting and were looking at us with scrutinizing eyes. I snorted. I know what’s on their mind. One look at their faces, and I know they are thinking that Jeremy and I had an afternoon sex. What the hell.

“Well, we argued for a moment, okay?” I said and let out a sigh. Heziah’s eyes roamed around my neck and I almost rolled my eyes. Heck, this bitch is probably checking for any sign of hickeys.

The others are still looking at us with no expression on their faces, probably not believing what I just said. That made me feel frustrated. What? Do they think I am that crazy to have sex with Jeremy, knowing that he’s sane as fuck?

“Seriously, stop giving us those kinds of stares. We just woke up late and argued about the alarm clock. That’s all,” Jeremy said with conviction which made me breathe out a sigh of relief. Good thing th

    Chapter 9 “WHAT. . . WHAT do you mean?” I gulped hard. I could hear Jeremy’s heavy breathing and when his hands touched my back, the coldness of lotion made me blink. But I could still feel how hot his palms are. He scattered the lotion all over my back, slowly and sensually, and my heart pounded. I could hear it ringing in my ears, pounding against my ribcage, like I was running endlessly in a middle of nowhere with no plan to stop. I swallowed hard when he scattered it on the sides of my waist, gently caressing my curves. Shit. What the fuck is he doing? “J-Jem.” I held his hand to stop him and luckily, he did. I breathe out a sigh of relief and tried to feel him behind me. His breathing is still heavy and unsteady. “Y-You told me y-you will never fuck me.” I licked my lips when I felt my throat ran dry. I heard him hold his breath as if my statement surprised the hell out of him. He went silent for a moment and I don’t know what I should feel, especially whe

    Chapter 10 MY MOUTH hang open in awe when we got inside the Yamashita’s Cave. The cave was small and was very narrow, clearly bad for claustrophobic people. The stalactites are low and it is hanging directly above our head but its length are enough for us to walk around. We saw a second opening. There was an opening on the wall where the light passes through, making the cave glow golden as if there’s a lot of golden treasures in there. I gasped. “Woah, shit,” I heard Heziah muttered and took some pictures. Flashes of camera filled the cave and they echoed. I took a picture of the opening, too. No wonder why it’s called Yamashita’s Cave. I turned to Jeremy. “Take a picture of me.” I gave him my camera and he immediately took it. We went inside the second opening while the others are still busy taking a pictures at the first. I went in front of the opening on the wall and took a step backwards. I looked at Jeremy. “The lighting looks good here.” He stood beside the o

    Chapter 11 MY EYES are wide open. I kept on looking at my phone, silently hoping that Jeremy would send me a message but it didn’t happen. He didn’t send me a message, not even one. And why would he? I see no reason for him to do so, and that’s why I so hate myself for waiting for his message even though I know it won’t happen! I mean, he’s fucking someone, duh? He can’t be having sex while still on phone. “Fuck!” I gripped the bun of my hair real tight and looked at the clock. It’s already 1:34 A.M. It’s time to sleep. Jeremy’s probably sleeping in the room of the whore he fucked. He’s sleeping, and here I am, wide awake. Damn, bitch. Don’t expect him to sleep beside you because he won’t. And it would be very disgusting if he sleeps with you after fucking someone. That thought was meant to calm my senses, but it heightened them even more! Fuck! I look like a martyr wife, waiting for her cheating husband to come. And I don’t like this shit. Why am I w

    Chapter 12 “I’M JUST kidding,” he told me after a moment of silence and chuckled. I slowly let out the breath I was holding and made a face. Damn him! “Oh, shut up, Jeremy. Were you trying to give me a heart attack?” I raised an eyebrow at him and dramatically put my hand on my chest. “Why? Did I make your heart beat fast?” My eyes widened as my brows furrowed. His voice was so serious and it’s kind of making me feel. . . anxious, afraid he finally noticed what I felt for him. I acted disgusted and acted like I was vomitting. I rolled my eyes at him. “Dream on! You made my heart beat fast but not in a romantic way! I can’t imagine being in a relationship with you!” Jeremy just chuckled and pinched the tip of my nose but I immediately shoved his hand away and showed him my fist. He finally stopped teasing me when we saw Ayden and Frostine finally emerged from the elevator. Beside me, I heard Heziah let out a sigh of relief. “Finally. I’m so fucking hungr

    Chapter 13 TWO DAYS have passed since we went to Sumilon Island. Everything was going well, except for the fact that my bitches are having a hard time looking for a ‘fling’. They urged me to try Tinder, but I didn’t and eventually, we all stopped looking for one. Aside from the fact that I am busy, I also think that I am still not ready for those kinds of shitness. “Ma’am, we have to do two surgeries tomorrow on Peachy and Hachiko,” my assistant, Ashley, reminded me. I nodded at her and gave her a smile. “Thanks, Ash.” I stood up from my seat and looked at the time. It’s already 11:23 in the morning. 27 minutes more and we will finally have our lunch break. I turned to Ashley. “I’ll just check them.” She nodded and sat on the sofa while I walked towards the infirmary. Twelve set of eyes looked at me and their tails wagged the moment I entered which made me smile. Six pets have been admitted to my clinic. The other two will undergo a surgery tomorrow. “Peachy.” I walk

    Chapter 14 “I WILL be very busy starting tomorrow,” I told Jeremy as we walked towards the cafeteria. Ashley and I were already done packing the treats. It’s ready for tomorrow. Jeremy pressed my arm lightly. His arm is wrapped around my shoulder, as usual. “Is it about the Pets’ Day?” he asked. We went inside the cafeteria and looked at the available foods. I nodded at him. “Yes. I will be very busy for three days.” I gave the lady my order and played with the hem of my pink ruffled blouse as I waited for my order. “And that means? We won’t be eating lunch together?” Jeremy asked after he placed his order and looked at me. I nodded at him and I could see disappointment in his eyes. I didn’t put any meaning to what I saw because Jeremy and I had always been together every time we eat lunch. “That’s sad. I guess, I’ll be eating alone in my office, then.” He lets out a sigh. We got the tray which contained the food that we ordered and began to find a table. We chose t

    Chapter 15 “AH, I missed this.” Jeremy emptied his glass again. I averted my gaze and looked at the movie. The first day of Pets’ Day happened a while ago and after we finished, Jeremy fetched me and brought me to his condo, saying he needed someone to accompany him in drinking. We’re watching a movie as we drink, but seems like I’m the only one who’s watching it. The place is dark, and the only source of light was the light coming from the T.V. “Drink, Jann.” His voice is kind of slurred and he’s clearly drunk. I just gave him a nod and looked at the movie again. To be honest, I don’t really understand what’s going on in the film because my mind is too occupied. And yes, it’s Jeremy, again, who’s making my mind so full. I know what will happen after this, after I try to put him to sleep. We will be making love—no, scratch that shit. We will fuck. Okay, that’s the right term. I let out a deep sigh and tried to calm my mind. I turned to Jeremy and my gaze dropped on h

    Chapter 16 WHEN I was done putting Jeremy’s clothes back on him again and made him lie properly on his couch, I immediately went back to my apartment to sleep. God, I was so freaking tired and tomorrow will be the second day of the Pets’ Day. I have to go to the venue as early as I can. I combed my hair using my fingers and got my bag while I was heading my way towards the door and opened it. I let out a gasp when I saw Jeremy in front of my door, raising his fist as if he was about to knock. His eyes widened, and so were mine. What the hell? Is he going to fetch me? “Hey,” he told me and blinked. He let out a smile when he recovered from shock. Memories from last night came through me like wild waves gently brushing against the white shore. I took the time to recall how I look and upon remembering that I already covered the marks he made on my leg using a concealer, I breathed out a sigh of relief. “Hey,” I replied back. “What are you doing here?” I made a move to

    HE’S SERIOUS ABOUT marrying me. That’s the only fact that ran through my mind as we prepared for our wedding. And now, we’re here in a known local boutique to have our fitting. "Good morning, Miss Jannah and Sir Jeremy. This way, please." The lady lead us towards a room where we were greeted by a lot of wedding dresses, making my mouth hung in awe. The room is massive, and each side of the room has a hanger rack on which the dresses were hung. There was a couch in the middle of the room and in front of it is a huge closed platform with double doors. Oh, wow. I turned to Jeremy, and I almost blinked when I caught him staring at me with a small smile on his face, causing my heart to kick. Damn. I shouldn't mind his stares. I cleared my throat. "What about you?" "You first. I want to see you in your wedding dress." "You might fall harder," I joked and smirked at him. Taking a step closer to me, he playfully grinned as his stares became intense. "I already did."A gasp escaped fro

Jeremy wiped my lips with wet wipes and wiped the sweat off my forehead.I just had morning sickness, and Jeremy was there by my side to make me feel better. His warm hand, caressing my back, made me feel better."Are you free by Tuesday?"He threw the wet wipes in the trash can under the sink and I saw him nod his head. "Yeah, sure. I'll clear my schedule. This is a lot more important." He stood up straight and smiled gently at me.I bit my lip as his words sent butterflies flying at the pit of my stomach. The way he said it sounds like our parents hadn't set us up, and that it's our decision to get married.I couldn't do anything but nod as my gaze moved towards his messy hair. I lifted my right hand to fix it, and as I did, he was just staring at me.I didn't mind him.When I was done, I was about to put my hand down when h

    MARRIAGE. WAIT, what? Are they serious?Jeremy and I looked at each other. His expression is just calm and composed as if what his mother said didn't bother him. What the hell? He should be bothered! It's his freedom that's on the line! I angled my face towards him, making sure that his parents couldn't see my expression, and widened my eyes at him, silently telling him to protest. But he didn't even budge. "Jeremy! It's your freedom! Do you want to be tied to me even if you still aren't sure about your feelings for me?" I said in a low voice, just enough for him to hear. His eyes are still fixed on his parents as if he didn't hear anything from me.I jumped from my seat when something warm enveloped my hand and when I looked at it, I saw Jeremy's hand wrapped around mine, his thumb softly caressing the back of my palm. My forehead knotted. And? What is the meaning of this?"Sure."A gasp escaped from my lips when I heard what he said to his parents. Is he fucking serious?! This is

    SOMETIMES, THE way time flies too freaking fast makes me wonder how the universe spins. I can't believe it's already a month since we found out that I am pregnant. Our baby is already growing inside me, and I know the time will come when our parents will know about this. At that thought, shivers ran down my spine. What will their reaction be? We haven't told them yet, and Jeremy and I haven't talked about telling them. Now, I wonder. When will we tell them? I want to tell them as soon as possible."What's the matter?" I felt him kiss the side of my forehead. We are watching a Netflix series, but no matter how hard I try to focus my attention on what we are watching, my mind always goes back to our parents. It kind of bothered me that we still haven't told them about our situation until now. It's been a month.I let out a sigh. "When are we gonna tell our parents?" I looked at him. He was staring at me, and I couldn't name the emotions in his eyes. He was caressing my hair as if think

I looked at my phone when it beeped, and oh, it was my bitches. I immediately opened the conversation and did a backread. My eyebrows rose at what I read. So, the bitches are planning to dine at a samgyupsal restaurant tonight. Woah, this was so out of the plan.I replied that I'll go, and I will be bringing Jeremy with me. I know, Frostine will also bring Ayden. Nothing new about that. I was about to put my phone down when Jeremy sent me a message, making me jump from my seat. Shit. My index finger immediately tapped on the notification bar and read his message. Do you have any plans for tonight?Biting my lip, I stared at his message for a long time and remembered my plans with my friends. But, oh, yeah. I'll be bringing him with me. With a sigh, I clicked on the message box and began to type a message. Yes. Come with us. We

    DATE. THE word I didn't expect to come out of Jeremy's mouth with regards to me. The word I didn't expect Jeremy would ask me about.I stared at him, mouth hanging open, trying to let his words sink into my brain. I keep staring at his face, looking for signs that he was just joking, but I didn't see any. Wait, did I hear him right? He wants to ask me out on a date?I blinked my eyes, trying to absorb the things he had asked me, or trying to wake up from this silly dream my brain had created- if this was a dream. His words still keep on repeating inside my head. I tried to convince myself that maybe, I was just dreaming. That him, standing in front of me with a smile on his face is just a mere illusion my mind creates. But then, he laughed, making me blink again. Raising his fingers, he flicked my forehead, and I jumped out in surprise. "Silly. I know that look. You're not dreaming, Jann," he said with utmost gentleness and looked straight into my eyes. He held both of my hands an

    Chapter 27 "WHY ARE you always here?" I rose an eyebrow at Jeremy when I saw him enter my clinic. He flipped the door sign to the other side, and the words 'come in, we're open' was facing at me. There was a smile on his face as he handed a bill to Ashley, signaling her to go out for a while and buy the foods she wants. With a smile, Ashley accepted the bill and went out of the clinic. My eyes rolled back to my head. God, Ashley chose foods over me! But if I were in her position, I would probably choose the former, too. "Why? Is it bad to visit you and our child?" He grinned at me and put something on my table which I didn't realize he was carrying. My eyes widened at the sight of foods. Hell, yeah! Jeremy chuckled upon seeing my reaction and took the foods out from the plastic. "Foods are the only things that calm you down. Hell," he ran his fingers through his hair, "what about me?" he dramatically asked. I scoffed at him and sat properly, ignoring his question and focusing my

    Chapter 26 AND JEREMY was really serious about making me his woman. I know, he feels nothing for me, but he's the one who put a label to our relationship. But it's fine, though, and I don't complain. I can benefit from this. At least, I won't have to lie anymore when someone asks about my civil status."What do you want to eat?" Jeremy asked me as his eyes were fixed on the menu. I looked away. Looking at the menu hurts my eyes. Its brightness makes me feel dizzy and nauseous. "Spicy chickenjoy, chocolate sundae, and fries. And I want to upgrade my drink. Coke float," I muttered in a soft voice. We're in Jollibee right now because I told him I wanted to eat dinner here.A small smile formed on his lips as he nodded his head. "That's all?" He threw me a sideway glance. I nodded and yawned, feeling sleepiness kicking in. Fuck. "Yeah." I couldn't help but hug Jeremy from the back and press my cheek against his back. I closed my eyes and hugged him tighter. I could feel him get froze

    Chapter 25 I STARED at him, dumbfounded. He. . . he won't let me move on from him because maybe. . . maybe he will fall with me, too?I laughed bitterly and stared at him in disbelief. My chest felt like it was being torn apart and it tightened, making my tears well up in the corners of my eyes. I gasped in pain and worry flashed in Jeremy's eyes upon seeing my reaction. I tried so hard to prevent my tears from falling but they fucking did. Fuck this. "Jann, did I say something wrong?" He tried to wipe my tears but I pushed his hands away. I shook my head and wiped my tears before looking at him. I didn't bother hiding my pain and my teary eyes. Heck. I let out a deep breath, hoping that doing that would make my chest feel lighter, but it didn't. I let out a sigh again before opening my mouth to speak,"I'm," I gulped, "I'm not just another 'maybe', Jem." I looked at him. "Please, don't. . . don't say those words to me.
