2022-01-30 10:36:03When I got back to the office, my mood was really dready. This was how he affected my system right now. What more in the future? I kept breathing heavily on my desk.
"Sister, why are you sad?" Romeo was leaning against the side of my desk. I was staring at the screen absentmindedly. "Wait! Are you and the CEO are at war? Tell me! Maybe I can help! I deserved a story!"
I didn't answer. I was still breathing deeply. Oh, Zach. What have you done to me?
He hugged me and sighed. "Okay, okay... I'm not going to be pushy anymore. Whatever it is, you can get through that like we did when we were in college!" His eyes twinkled when I looked at him.
"Like when we were in college?" I smiled slightly again.
My sadness faded quickly and my lips formed a smile. I missed those times when I was just thinking about fun. We did bar hopping before after exams or before s

"There you are Iris!" Ashley shouted when she was done dancing.Her face was so red already but her make-up was very on point. She stared next to me then her face went pale."Brother! What are you doing here?"I felt like she also lost her intoxication because Zach wasn't smiling at her. Zach's grip tightened on my waist, seemed to remember the betrayal Ashley and I had committed."Ashley, what brought you here?" Zach asked innocently when Ashley sitted infront of us.She drunk water this time. I wanted to laugh because she was uncomfortable. Her date must be too important for her so her brother was able to scare her like this. I would talk to him if he wouldn't help her."Cut it out, Zach!" Ashley said as she lowered the glass of water to our table full of cocktails. "I've done my part, you know. It's just..." She was looking for

"What are you doing here?" I asked him in shock.He wore his mask again. "Chilling like an ice cream, chilling."I rolled my eyes as he answered. I looked again at my wet clothes. "Everytime we meet I'm always getting lucky," I said sarcastically.I could feel he was smirking under his mask. "Of course, God sent me. Long time no see, yes?" He then stared at my dress. "If you didn't get because of your clumsiness, you look good tonight. You look very different than before. Woah?" he said as if we were close."You too," I turned to him and I suddenly remembered the magazine that had ruined me. "Thank you last time for lending me your porn."He laughed even the music was loud I could still hear him. "I told you, don't do that. You're the only one who insists.""You should have told me!" I argued. "Who would bring those things in public!?"&n

He was holding a black collar just like the last time. But it was much larger than the last. My heartbeat quickened. We did it before but why it was scary this time? Was it because he was really mad right now?Zach half smiled. "Are you afraid, Iris?" he asked as he played with the handle in front of me.I was almost catching my breath. "No," I lied."Do you still trust me?" he asked, then lowered down so we were in the same levelI didn't know why he's asking me that. He knew what my answer would be even in situation like this."I do..." I stared at him. "Even if you're mad at me right now, I still trust you."His eyes darkened. "Trust and honesty are big words, Iris. You can't just say you are when you're feeling not. You have to be honest so you'll avoid getting hurt."I swallowed. It was as if all the alcohol had disappe

"You seem too excited today," Zach commented."It's because I'm going to see my family after a long time," I said.I was arranging the clothes I would take to my family's province. I was so glad he would go with me. I know he was a very busy man but spending time with me, away from his office and his home was a huge stepped in our relationship.I bought a huge amount of clothes even we were staying there for a few days only. It was better to be ready than nothing to have when needed, right?"You miss them that much?" he asked and hugged me from behind.I got distracted instantly. Was this normal? Or a progress too? I could no longer concentrate on what I was doing. I could smell him. I just want to bury myself in his neck and not move. This Zachary Levi Esqueza smell was so addictive.I closed my eyes, putting my best

We found my mom serving plates. Since this house was almost open, you could see everything including the kitchen, living room, stairs to the second floor etc etc. Mom's face hadn't change at all but she looked younger than the last time I saw her. God, I missed her. I missed my mom."Mom," I whispered.Even though it was almost a whisper, Mom suddenly stopped arranging the plates and slowly turned her head."Iris," she said in disbelief.Did they really think I wasn't going? I couldn't move from where I was standing I just felt Zach's hand move to my waist telling me to go hug her.I slowly approached mom and hugged her tightly. I couldn't hold back my tears and she did the same to me."Oh darling," she said while caressing my hair. I put my head on her shoulder."Mom, I miss you so much!" I sobbed.&nbs

The moon was in full moon mode tonight. It was a few minutes left before Christmas. My family slept early because they were not into celebrating it in mindight. Dad wasn't allowed to stay late. We usually gift giving the next morning.Zach was roaming around my room, he was expecting everything he could see about me."Didn't you have a picture when you were a kid?" He asked while holding my photo album from high school."No, Dad said it got burned in our first house."Zach frowned at night "Burned?""Yes, I was still a baby then so I don't remember either. But he said that someone intentionally burned it to get rid of us since they wanted tu build a company where our house was."Zach's face got worried "Who did it, Iris? Where do they live? Do you know their name? And what job they have now?""Don

"Oh my God! What are you guys doing?!"I breathed a sigh of relief because I heard Anya's voice."Would you guys get a room?!" she shouted again.My face was really red. "A-ah, A-anya, Zach is just try—""Why can't you look?" she asked.I slowly looked at Anya and my facial expression changed when I saw who was with her."Why are you still together? What time is it?" I asked back.Now Anya's eyes were panicking, not knowing what to answer."Mark just helped me to get home!" she defended then bit her lip."Accompanied? At this time?""Y-yes," she said while stuttering. "W-we just bought something!" He kicked Mark next to herz "Didn't us, babe?" She then eyed him."Y-yes, we just bought something." Mark also stuttered.

We were just circling around the park. It was getting a bit crowded as the sun was about to go down. We were roaming from stall to stall. Zach was amazed how cheap the food and clothes here. He said he wanted to go back here every year since it's always like this every Christmas season."Wear this," I handed Zach the black mask I had chosen, it was only half up to the nose.We were in front of a stall now. I smiled when Zach took what I gave him. He didn't ask me why and trusted my plan."Like this, Mrs. Esqueza?" Zach asked when he wore it."You look perfectly gorgeous, Zach. Even though half of your face is still covered," I said disapprovingly.Zach took the silver mask and put it on my face."And you look perfect, Mrs. Esqueza. It's indistinguishable that a beautifu

"You really look so hungry, Iris!"Romeo was eyeing everything that Zach bought for me. I insisted to order all of this food but he was so pushy about it. I bet he wanted to make me look fat. "Did you see the fight outside, Iris? It was Ericka versus Ashley Esqueza! Goodness. I want to sneak some popcorn if only I see it."I don't want to say that I was in front of the two when they were fighting. Knowing Rose she's so into gossip. "Not even a single hair," I replied."I'm so excited later!" Romeo shouted "I'll see more boys!"I just laughed I really need the girls night out tonight. I've been so stressed lately I have to unwind. So in the evening, Ashley lend her dresses to us. I feel so beautiful with this fitted dress even Romeo looked so handsome tonight. He dressed up fine; like a straight man."Wow. Romeo." I said in shock.My friend frowned. "How would I flirt with this kind of outfit?"Ashley got into the car. "You're so handsome! Don't complain. You only have to dress up lik

"Better the best you'll give me next time" Zach replied when I teased him.He went straight to his library looking annoyed because Brent bothered 'our' time. He was hugging his book next to me while eyes closed. I couldn't help but smile, he had the look of an Esqueza. It really runs in the blood to be this good looking.I was surprised when he suddenly popped his eyes open. "Why are you looking at me?"I laughed. He was really an Esqueza, so moody. "Because you're so handsome like Zach.""But I'm more handsome than him!" he argued."Yes, of course," I giggled while shaking my head. "But it's a secret, okay? I don't want him to be angry when he finds out our secret."Brent childishly giggled before closing his eyes. I caressed his hair when he moved slightly next to me. I wondered what was it like to hold someone that was your own child? Hmm. I shouldn't be thinking something like that, knowing my situation, I would just hurt myself if I expect more from him. The bed moved again and

Maybe it would be better for me to just go home. But should I find the key to his room first? Then the pendant? I don't know. My mind was fighting over matter. I was about to walk out the door when I saw Ashley not afar to where I was standing."Iris!" She waved at me."Ashley," I greeted back and look surprised. "What are you doing here?""I've been looking for you, of course!"I was suddenly nervous. "W-why?""Why? I need you to come home with me! Grandma keep asking about you!" She clung to my arms and started pulling me where her car was. "She wants us to cook spaghetti!"I was taken aback. "Spaghetti?""Yup. Yup! Let's go, come on!""Hello, Iris," Hunter greeted me. He doesn't look serious anymore now that he greeted me with a smile. Oh, that was new."Hi, hunter," I replied back."Do you know how to cook spaghetti, Iris?" Ashley asked excitingly."Sort of..." I don't cook. But I was about to enter the culinary school is Zach's ex didn't show up. "I know how to but I don't really

I was waiting at the airport. Today is the day my family would finally have their vacation. I was feeling abit uneasy since this would be the first time they would be out of the country without me. I don't know why I'm feeling sad right now, my mood was messing up with me again today. "Did they text you yet?" I asked again for the fifth time this day. My possessive husband trying to refrain himself from smiling. "Are we a little impatient today, love?" he asked then kissed my forehead to calm me.I frowned. "I'm worried about them," I said then bit my lip."Nothing will happen to them." Zach assured me. "It will be fine."He held me by the waist. I could sense an instant eyebrow raised from people around us. Especially girls. Of course, I couldn't blame them. I looked like a maid everytime I'm next to him. "Iris! Iris!" I jumped when I heard my Dad's voice."Dad!"I ran to hug Dad, he was with my Mom and Anya. Mom also hugged me as if we wouldn't be seeing each other for good while

The Esqueza's decided to celebrate Newyear's eve at their house. Almost everyone I knew at work were invited. We were in Zach's room and I was lying on his chest while he was playing with my hair."They're leaving tomorrow," I said to him as the though of my family having their vacation without me. They will be gone for a few weeks although I'm a little used to them not getting along but it's really different when you know they're leaving the country, I'm having abit of anxiety."Hmm, don't be sad. I'm here," Zach said and kissed my hair. "You do smell good even in the morning, love," he teased."Are you flirting with me, Zachary?"Zach leaned over causing the bed to shake. "With you, I guess yes." Zach's lips began to descend on my neck. He seems happy today. I wonder if this is the same guy that was rape when he's still a kid?Suddenly my body stiffened at the idea that entered my mind. Zach stopped."Why?""What why?" I lied."I know when something is bothering you."He really kne

My heart is sinking from what I've heard. I alsp don't know what to say and I was focusing on my breath. He was raped? My husband got raped?My mouth was still open as it was slowly being registered to me. Oh my god, oh my god, My Zach... He was raped. That's why he's too hard with himself, that's why he doesn't want to show attachment, this is why he thinks that he doesn't deserve to be loved. The rules, the punishments and everything. Oh my god... Zach... My poor poor Zach...I placed my hand on my mouth and my tears started to flow. How come? Why would some people do this to him?"Are you okay?" I suddenly heard Zach's mom talking behind me. I also felt she supports me so that I could sit in the chair next to the table.

Sitting in a taxi cab with Zach is the best moment in the world. As long as I'm with him, I felt whole. Is it really like that when you already love someone? Uggh. It's not that I haven't loved someone before but Zach is different. I know literally that he is different from the men I have been in a relationship; sexually different, I guess?I was stunned when I noticed that Zach hadn't moved next to me. Oh the moody Zach again. He is maybe thinking deeply. I looked at him and he is seriously looking at the taxi driver as if the driver is going to do something bad. I laughed."What?" he asked when he heard my laughter. I bit my lip to refrain myself from laughing. Zach touched my lower lip. "You don't dare to laugh at me like that, Mrs. Esqueza." He turned to the driver again "Not here in a semi public cab."

I was stunned for 5 minutes on the blank folder in front of me. Wait? What am I going to do there? My body was holding back to the things my brain wanted to do. I kept blocking and blocking it. I sighed. Two normal days had passed. Can I really call two days normal days? Ericka became the official head of this department. Or should I call her, "The woman who wants to seduce everyone." And take note of the clothes she wears. It didn't fit the company's standard! It was too short! I could hear the heels of Ericka's shoes from behind. Stumping back and forth. She's still bugging me about what we talked about. "Irisian, have you seen the one I asked you?" She smiled forcely and acting as if we were talking about office stuff. "Not yet. I'll tell you right away just in case." She lowered her head a little to me and whispered, "fine, it looks like you have no interest in what we talked about. Well, let me do what I want."

My heart beat faster when it suddenly thundered. Holy crap. I immediately looked out at the window. It looks like a storm is coming.It will be soon be dark and Zach is still not here. What is he doing now? Will he and Ericka still be together? I felt the jealousy in my chest again. I trust him. Of course, I trust him. I trust Zach even if it's late at night and I don't receive any text from him. I shoved my cellphone in my pocket and checked it again, no message at all. What happened there?I flinched when I heard a crack in the other room. Oh god, is he home?"Zach?" I said.The crackling continues."Zach?"
