KRIS:

It was a week from Thanksgiving so I returned home to spend time with my mom.

Call it a break from my crumbling life.

I got out of my car and walked towards the front door, pulling my suitcase behind me. Getting to the door, I tried the handle and it was opened so I let myself in.

"Mom! I'm home". I called, getting into the living room.

"Ohh Baby!!". She ran from the kitchen, barreling into me.

I chuckled, embracing her tightly. Sometimes she made me feel like I was the mom with her ever jolly attitude.

God. I've missed her. I though

    KRIS:"Honey, wake up". Mom tapped me gently.I groaned in frustration, pulling the covers tightly against me."Mom let me sleep". I muttered, eyes still closed."No baby. This is the third time you're napping today. Are you sure you're fine?". She asked and I felt my bed dipped."I'm okay mom". I replied.Sleeping was one thing I did a lot so it was totally normal to me."You've been sleeping a lot lately". She pressed a hand to my head to feel my temperature."Mom, I'm fine". I replied

    KRIS:The sound of footsteps heading to my room brought me back to reality. Not wanting whoever it was to see my tears streaked face, I dashed into the bathroom to wash my face."Kris, I'm back baby". Violet screeched.She just returned from her parents place where she'd gone for Thanksgiving. I'd returned immediately after Thanksgiving, not wanting to spend an extra day so I could figure out my life. I didn't want my mom getting worried."Kris?". She called, entering my room just as I exited the bathroom."Yeah baby". I smiled, striding towards her. "I missed you". I got to her, throwing my arms around her.&nb

    KRIS:The ringing of my phone woke me up. Picking it from my nightstand, I saw the caller was Lucian. I ignored the call.He'd been calling for the past one week but I wasn't ready to face him. He also sent lots of texts that I also ignored.Glancing at my phone again, I saw it was just six in the morning. Violet was going for her morning run by 6:30am. Most times, she dragged me along but I didn’t want to go with her because my bed was calling to me and I wouldn’t want to ignore it. Keeping my phone on the nightstand, I went back to sleep, pulling the covers over me.I woke up moments later to a booming voice, coming from the living room. It was loud enough for me to figure out who it was w

I couldn't keep him hanging anymore.Getting to him, he stood up from his seat and gave me a smile but his eyes told a different story.He was worried.He pulled me into a tight embrace and pecked my cheek when he pulled away. His nice gestures were making it hard for me to

    KRIS:"Where are you going?". His husky voice asked, stopping me in my tracks by the door."Out for lunch". I replied without sparing him a look."No". He replied coldly."Excuse me?". I asked, this time around looking at him with furrowed brows."You're not having lunch with him".I should have known.He was referring to Dean. I'd been having lunch with him since I resumed."It's a good thing I have legs". Ignoring him, I turned the door handle but his next words made me

    KRIS:"It's not yours". I stared him in the eyes, so he could buy it but his facial expression never changed. He stared back at me coldly. "It's my ex's". I added, praying he’d believe it."Stop. lying. to. me". He replied with gritted teeth."It's not a…"."Cut it". He interrupted in a cold voice. "The doctor informed me that you are two months pregnant and from my calculations which I know I'm very correct, it's the time we had sex before you left for Thanksgiving. You still wanna lie?". He queried.Tired of keeping up with the lie, I averted my gaze away from him.I didn't know what I was thinki

    KRIS:I stood by the elevator wall opposite Lucian, but his eyes were focused on me. This time, they were not cold but they had an unreadable expression.I hated how his stare made me feel jittery with my heart hammering so I stared at the floor to avoid the intensity of his gaze but I could still feel it on me.The elevator dinged, announcing our stop at the 37th floor just as the door opened. He grabbed my hand and pulled me with him so I was walking beside him. I was too tired to pry my hand away so I let him hold me.Getting to the door of his penthouse, he swiped in his key card and it opened.We got into the living room and I immediately fell in love with it

    KRIS:Rays of light streaming into the room hit my eyes that were still closed, making me turn my face to the opposite direction. Stretching out my limbs, they fell on an empty bed.I opened my eyes to see I was alone on the bed. Stretching some more, I lifted my lazy body from the bed and got into the bathroom to clean my teeth.Thereafter, I made my way to the kitchen in search of food and there he was. Seated on a stool at the kitchen island, sipping coffee. He was dressed for work in a navy blue suit with a white dress shirt, no tie. His hair was in it's usual messy form with a few strands falling on his face. Looking at him from the doorway, he looked like a pure work of art in it's exquisite form.I could stand there and w

    Giovanni: "How far are you from home, Mio Amore(my love)?" My mother's voice laced with her heavy Italian accent streamed into my ear from the phone speaker. "Soon Madre(mother). I'm on my way from the airport." I replied, raising my hand to my aching chest. It was a miracle that I could reply to her calmly when my entire heart was burning as though it was in flames. I'd been feeling the burn since I woke up in the morning. Why my heart was aching, I couldn't tell. I'd been well the previous night, while I spoke to my mom about my return. "Alright Mio Amore(my love), I can't wait to see you," I heard shuffling sounds from the phone speaker and the clanking of what sounded like pots and spoons. "The entire clan is already at the packhouse waiting for your arrival." "See you soon madre." The line went dead after that. I tapped gently on the partition, signaling to the driver who was seated on the driver's seat to commence driving. As the engine roared to life, I reached for the bo

    LUCIAN:"Watch me". I said before throwing the knife. As expected, it hit the target. "Now your turn". I urged her, handing her another knife."Dad, I can't". She whined, pouting, making puppy eyes at me.She looked just like her mom. Even at ten years of age, the resemblance was striking."Come on baby. You can. Just focus okay? Don't you wanna fight bad guys when you get older?". She gave a small nod, smiling."Good. Now's the time to practice. Now try it".She was reading to throw it when we heard her voice."Oh my God!

    A year laterSitting on a couch in the living room, I flipped through the photo album on my lap. They were photos from our wedding. Staring at them and seeing the smiles on our faces had me reminiscing."Mwommy, ish this dhaddy and uncle Vah?". Angel who was sitting beside me on the couch asked.She is now two years old and looks like a bundle of sunshine."Yes baby". I answered as she grabbed onto my arm, staring at the photo with a little cute frown on her face."Where ish me?". She stared up at me with her big baby eyes, making me smile.Flipping the pages of the album, I got to another photo with her in it.

    KRIS:"Babe, let's play". I climbed on his back, resting my head on his shoulder.By play, I meant I wanted him between my legs where he'd been spending a lot of time lately.Don't judge me. It's hardly my fault. Being pregnant makes me horny all the time.I'd just trudged from the kitchen where I finished a plate of food.I ate a lot. It was becoming my best hobby."Babe". I tapped his back gently. He was lying on his stomach, replying to emails on his phone.Slowly, he turned around, making me sit on his stomach.&n

    LUCIAN:"Babe, please…". She pouted, giving me puppy eyes."If you ask nicely, I might just consider it". I smirked, holding the phone away from her reach.She moved in with me the day she came to my office. I couldn't let her be away from me for an hour more.It'd been a month since then and her baby bump grew bigger and so did her breasts and I totally loved them. But, I hated that her clothes couldn't cover them completely. For this reason, I wanted her to wear my clothes while going out but she refused.Now, she was craving Chinese food. She has just finished eating but I guess pregnancy does this. Nevertheless, she's still as adorable as she was when I first

    KRIS:After three weeks of moving out of Lucian's place, I still felt like a huge part of me was missing. The only thing I figured out was:I want him back in my life.I know it's crazy but I can't help it.He hadn't called since I left nor has he texted. He might have given me a month but it felt like he was done with me already.Maybe asking for the time was a mistake..."Kris?". A slight tap made me realize I was still with Violet."Hmmm?". I stared at her."Did you
