Rosalind

We were now on our way to Agartha—the place where Luna Aerin currently is. We were already nearing the vicinity, and there were no trains that passed through this area, so we just ended up walking. 

We were surrounded by tall trees, itchy grass, and different types of exotic flowers. 

I groaned as I once again scratched my leg, which seemed to be a favorite target for the mosquitoes around here. 

"Why are you even wearing a dress in the first place?" Sebastian asked, laughing as he watched me scratch my legs for the nth time of the day. 

I glared at him. "Well, you didn't tell me that we were going to be walking!"

He raised his hands up in surrender. "Hey, I disclosed to you the plan yesterday night in your room. It's not my fault that you were not paying attention."

I grumbled under my breath and trudged behind them, still feeling grumpy from all the mosquito bites on my legs. 

We had be

    Rosalind"Oh god, this is rich," Sebastian continued, guffawing.I tapped his shoulder. "What did you say? Hey, repeat what you just said?" I said, almost shaking him.After saying his last statement, he started laughing so much that I couldn't decipher whether he was joking or not."Luna Aerin...is Axel's mother?" I asked. I tried to make my voice neutral, but it came out a little bit hopeful and expectant.He wiped the sides of his mouth before replying. "Yes! Why the hell would you think she's his girlfriend?"I looked away from him. "Just cause—he told me that she was someone very important in her life.""Duh! She's his mom.""Yeah, well, I didn't know that back then," I said in exasperation.I tried so hard to hold back my happiness, but I felt my lips forming into a smile as I internalized the new information. So, Luna Aerin isn't Axel's girlfriend but his mom."You must l

    Axel"Long time, no see...brother," a deep and familiar voice said.As the cloud of dust cleared out, there appeared Logan with a smug smirk on his face.I was pissed beyond imagination with the look on his face, but I didn't let it show and mirrored his smirk instead. I need to show him that I'm not fazed by his cockiness."I don't think you have the right to call me that anymore...brother."He looked me up and down. "You look good, brother. I was actually thinking that you've become skin and bones, but I guess someone's been taking care of you well," he said, turning his eyes towards Rosalind.I held Rosalind's hand and hid her behind my back, shielding her away from Logan."Oh," Logan said, his voice showing recognition. "Well, if it isn't Princess Rosalind of the Faerie Kingdom? Fancy seeing you here," he said, trying to kiss her hand.I hid her even more behind my back.He w

    AxelI was in a dilemma.I looked back and forth at the bloody Logan on the ground and at my mom, who had a knife near her neck."Fuck this," I muttered under my breath and let go of Logan to go to my mom.I saw Sebastian walking towards my mom as well, so I gestured for him to go behind the burly man who was holding my mother.With one look, Sebastian elbowed the burly man's head, causing him to pass out on the ground. At the same time, I caught my mom in my arms and removed the ropes tied around her arms."Are you okay?" I asked softly, removing the ropes as carefully as possible. She already had so many cuts on wounds on her body, and I didn't want to add to them anymore."Axel," she said softly, and a surge of happiness entered my heart. I didn't know just how much I missed the sound of my mom's voice until I heard it.My eyes widened in realization when I remembered that I had left

    RosalindI felt like I was being poured with a cold bucket of water. I swiftly turned around when Luna Aerin said my mother's name.We mirrored each other's wide eyes, both speechless."How—how do you know my mother's name?" I asked after a long period of silence.I saw her eyes tearing up and became even more confused. Does she know my mom?"She's your mother?"I slowly nodded my head.I don't know what happened, but the next thing I know, she had already hugged me in her arms."Oh god," she muttered under her breath as she tenderly caressed my hair.A tear fell from my eyes as I reciprocated her hug—the warmth that I felt in her arms resembling the warmth that emanated from my mother.Axel groaned in his sleep, causing both of us to look at him.She broke away from the hug. "Do you want to talk about this tomorrow? I promise to tell you everythin

    Rosalind"I—I don't know what you're talking about," I said, avoiding her eyes.She chuckled and placed her hands on my shoulder, forcing me to face her. "Come on, Rosalind. I'm not blind. I could see the way that you look at my son."I looked down on my lap. "I naturally have eyes that look like this," I feigned innocence.She ruffled my hair. "There's no use hiding this from me. I've seen this look many times on your mom, and now I'm seeing it on you. Oh, how fast time flies."I let out a deep sigh and bit my lip. "Is it that obvious?"She laughed. "Yeah. I'm surprised that Axel hasn't noticed. Or maybe he has noticed."My eyes widened as I looked at her. "Has he?""No, I highly doubt it," she said, making me sigh out in relief. "If there's one thing that Axel and his father have in common is that they are both dense. Do you know how long I've been dropping him hints that I like him just for him to treat me

    RosalindI looked for somewhere to hide, but it was already too late. Axel came into the room with a teasing smile on his face, and all I could do was look down at the ground and hit myself on the head in embarrassment.Why the hell did I forget about Sebastian and I's deal?"Ooh, hey! You're back?" I awkwardly greeted him.He didn't say anything and just kept on staring at me with inquiring eyes. I squirmed under his gaze and tried to find a way to escape."Right! I need to do something...something with Sebastian! We have to do something today," I said, trying to go out of the room, but Axel covered the door before I could."Excuse me," I muttered under my breath and squeezed myself under his armpits, but he suddenly started walking forward, causing me to look up at him with wide eyes.With each step he took forward, I took a step backward.It came to the point where my back had already bump

    RosalindI sighed in disappointment. "Uhm, yeah. Of course. I understand why you don't like me. I mean—wait, what?" I looked up at him with wide eyes.He looked down at me with amusement in his eyes."Can you repeat what you just said?"He smiled. "Hmm, I don't think so," he said, removing his hands from the wall and moving away from me. I held onto his biceps and forced him to look into my eyes."Axel. Repeat what you just said.""No," he stubbornly said.I sighed in exasperation. "Repeat it, please. Repeat it...for me," I said, my voice almost breaking.He threw his head back and groaned. "Fuck. You're going to be the death of me.""Come on now, please. Please," I looked up to him with wide and bright eyes.He let out a small breath and brought his face closer to mine. I could feel his breath hovering over my lips, almost touching them."I said, I think I'm

    RosalindIt has been two days since Axel and I confessed our feelings to each other, and I couldn't be happier. I just feel so...comfortable whenever I'm with him. Yes, we still bicker from time to time, but the difference is that we steal some kisses here and there throughout the day.Like right now, we were currently holed up in my room just watching a random television show."Do you even know what's happening?""Nope," he said with a popping 'p' sound."Then why'd you put it on?"He tilted his head to the side and kissed my cheek. "Honestly, I just wanted to have an excuse to hang out with you in this room."I clicked my tongue. "You don't have to make up an excuse just to be with me. You can just tell me. I want to hang out with you anyway," I said gently."Hmm. Okay. I'll just tell you right away next time then."We just sat there, playing with each other's fingers and laughing once in a whil

    It has been exactly eight months since Axel and Cupid called each other to share that their respective wives were pregnant, and it has also been eight months since they’ve been seeing each other every month. Axel sighed as he packed his bags once again.“Are you ready, love?” Rosalind called out from the bathroom.Axel smiled and tried to sound cheery. “Yes, love. I’ll just load the bags in the car.”“Alright, I’ll come down after peeing,” she called out.“Stay here while I load our things, love. I’ll go back here to come and fetch you.”Rosalind flushed the toilet and moved out of the bathroom. “Wait, let’s just go together,” she walked toward her husband. She held onto her back as she walked since her stomach had gotten so big that her back failed to support her by itself anymore.Axel clicked his tongue and shook his head when he saw her struggling to walk. He placed their bags down on the ground and walked over to where she was. One hand held onto her back while the other held on

    Axel excitedly dialed Cupid's number, ready to tell him about the unexpected news. As much as the two of them try to deny it, they both know, deep inside their hearts, that they treat each other as very good friends. "Yo," Axel said into the phone. "I have something to tell you." "Axel!" Cupid greeted in an equally jolly voice. "I was just about to call you too. I also have some great news." Axel became a little suspicious when he heard that Cupid, too, had some good news, but nothing could really take away from his happiness after the news that he had just heard. "You go first, then," Axel presented since he is in a good mood. "Nah, man. You go first. You're the one who called me first. Go ahead," Cupid responded. "No, you." "No, you go first." "No, YOU go first." "No, you're the one who should go first." They endlessly said to each other. In the end, Axel sighed in frustration. "Let's just say it at the same time, alright. Then we'll explain it individually afterward." "Fi

    "Did you get it?" Rain excitedly said as she went out of her office. Liam looked up from his laptop and focused his attention on Rain. "Get what?" Rain sighed in frustration. "The invitation!" "What invitation?" he asked, confused. Rain walked closer to him and went behind his back. "I told you to check your personal email more often. Come on, open up your account." Liam quickly opened up his personal email account and clicked on the latest message. He read the contents of the email. "A high school reunion?" "Yeah," Rain nodded her head. "Let's go together." Liam smiled. In the course that they have been dating, he could feel that Rain had changed for the better. She had gained so much confidence over the past few months, and Liam feels proud knowing that she had grown to love and appreciate herself even more. "Yeah, let's go together. I also miss some of my high school friends." Rain smiled. "That's settled, then. Let's also buy our outfits together." *** Rain and Liam t

    "This is it," Cupid removed his hands from Gillian's eyes, revealing a spacious yet cozy-looking infrastructure filled with antique designs. "Our new bakery." Gillian looked at the infrastructure in awe, and suddenly got teary-eyed when she realized that they were going to be having a new chapter in their life. Cupid chuckled as he observed his wife's teary eyes. "Why are you crying? This is supposed to be a happy event, love." Gillian wiped her tears with her sleeves and tried her hardest not to cry. "I know, love. I'm just so proud of the two of us." Ever since Gillian and Cupid had been married, they started thinking more about their future. They both knew that Cupid's investments would be more than enough to provide for their everyday needs, but they still would want to have a steady, stable income where the two of them can work together. And as someone who enjoys cooking and baking quite a lot, Cupid suggested that they open a cafe near Briana's restaurant. He thought that

    No matter how many times Axel wakes up to Rosalind in the morning, he still can’t get over how beautiful his wife is. He smiled and leaned closer to her face, tracing her features from her eyes down to her lips.“Axel, stop that,” Rosalind swatted his hand away and scooted farther away from him.“Love, stay here,” Axel whined and pulled her closer, peppering kisses all over her neck.“I’m tired, Axel,” she grumbled and closed her eyes to get more sleep.“Why, my love? Didn’t you get enough sleep yesterday?”Rosalind clicked her tongue and glared at Axel. “Of course, I’m tired! You fucking ruined me yesterday.”Axel smiled with pride. “But you liked it, right?”Rosalind rolled her eyes and turned away from Axel, trying to hide her reddening cheeks. "Whatever. I'm going to sleep."Axel chuckled and placed a chaste kiss on top of her shoulder. "Rest well, my love. I'll be cooking some breakfast.""Mmh," Rosalind hummed, willing herself to sleep once again.

    Olivia and Dallas gazed back and forth between Liam who was on stage and Rain who was sitting right next to them. Olivia couldn't help but let out a small chuckle when she saw Rain's flushed face as other people also started teasing her. "How the fuck did he know what I was going to wear?" she asked. Dallas shook his head. "I went with him. He definitely didn't know. He just grabbed the first sweater he saw at Target. Must be destiny or something." Rain knew that Dallas was joking when he told her about destiny, but she couldn't help but blush at the thought that they might really be destined for each other. Liam, who saw Rain from a distance, was also shocked to see that they were wearing the same sweaters. He smiled to himself as he watched Rain getting teased by her other co-workers. 'I knew that going to Target would be a good idea,' he thought in his mind. "Good evening, everyone!" Liam finally said into the mic. The crowd cheered and clapped their hands, ready to star

    When Liam told Rain that he would show her how he truly feels, she thought that he was just joking. There was no way that the guy she has been liking for the past seven years would suddenly show interest in her and make the effort to prove it.However, much to her surprise, he wasn’t lying. Ever since that day, she would always see her favorite coffee on top of her desk. On the weekends, flowers would suddenly show up on her doorstep. And during the end of her shift, Liam would always be waiting for her to take her home.She arrived in the office and saw yet another coffee, accompanied by two blueberry muffins, on top of her desk.“Damn, girl. I’m jealous of this admirer of yours. You’ve been receiving free breakfast for the past week!” Olivia saidRain chuckled and handed Olivia one of the blueberry muffins before taking a sip from her coffee. Olivia smiled in delight before taking the blueberry muffin from Rain's hands. "Do you already know who this admirer is?" she asked. Rain st

    “I like you, alright?” Rain bursted out.“I’ve liked you for so damn long that it’s killing me inside! I know that you don’t see me that way, and I also know that you have something going on with Claire, that’s why I hate myself for even thinking about you—for thinking we could be together. So, stop doing this—whatever this is that you’re doing. To you, this might only be an act of friendship, but to me who has liked you from the beginning, I am starting to misinterpret your actions. It’s so fucking difficult for me to act platonically with you if you keep doing these things. So, please. Stop. I’ll also stop bothering you from now on.”Liam intently listened to every word that Rain said. He never expected this, to be honest. To him, Rain was like an honest friend that always had his back. She would always be there to comfort him whenever he felt down, and even when he had problems with Claire, she’d always be there to listen. Looking back on it, Rain must have suffered a lot because o

    Liam felt giddy as he parked his car in the parking lot. Even if he didn’t get much sleep last night, he still somehow feels energetic. It’s like there’s something, or rather, someone he’s looking forward to seeing to in the office. Rain, on the other hand, had a full night of sleep but she still felt like she didn’t get enough rest. She placed her things down on the table and sat down on her chair with a deep sigh. Olivia saw this, so she walked towards her and placed her hand on her shoulder. “Hey, you alright?”“Mmh?” Rain looked up at Olivia and smiled. “I’m great, Liv.”Even if Rain smiled, it somehow didn’t feel genuine. “Did everything go well yesterday?” Olivia asked, wondering if something bad happened during the dinner, causing her to act like this.Everything went well. Too well, if you ask Rain. Liam and her had the best conversation they ever had, but it only reminded her that their relationship stops at that. She hates herself for thinking that the two of them could ac
