Blair had sworn that she wasn't going to answer the call, but it seemed it also wasn't going to let Blair sleep peacefully till she answered it. She bit the hem of her pillowcase in anger while finally reaching out for her phone, with the plan to switch it off, but decided against it when she saw who was calling. It was Dylan's mum. She sat up, rubbing the sleep away from her eyes, she answered the call. "Good morning," she greeted. "Sorry, I wasn't with my phone. Have you been calling for long?"

"I's fine dear, I haven't. Are you still in bed? Your voice is heavy and kind of rough."

"Oh no," Blair said quickly, clearing her throat. "I'm not in bed anymore. I just finished eating that's why, I'll drink some water.

"Ok good. I need you to run an errand for me, that's of you're not too busy, but this is really important."

"No, I'm not busy. What is it, do you need me to come over?" Blair crossed her fingers, praying that she wouldn't ask for that.

"No you don't have to." Blair relaxed a

    "Sir, it's Alexa."Dylan sighed, it was his receptionist. "Come in Alexa." The door opened slowly, Alexa first poked her head in, before the rest of her body followed. "Is there a problem?""N-nothing really sir, I just came to apologize. I swear I didn't know she was your wife. I would never have spoken to her in that manner if I knew who she was, I apologize sir, please don't fire me.""My wife? In what manner?"Alexa's eyes widened with realization as she realized that Blair hadn't told Dylan about their encounter earlier. "Your wife didn't tell you anything?""No." Dylan frowned. "Alexa did you say anything disrespectful to my wife?""I'm so sorry sir. I knew you were married, but I've never met your wife before and when she came in asking to see you, I was...""How many times have I warned you about the way you talk to people?" Dylan suddenly felt like a big hypocrite. He felt he was no different from Alexa, he also had just spoken to his wife like she was trash. "Just leave, I'm

    "I don't mean to disturb your sleep, just thought I should let you knowBlair dried her tears quickly, happy that Dylan wasn't looking at her to see them. She got out from the bed, to go wash her face in the bathroom. "A vacation? Where are we going?""Somewhere." He glanced at her. "It was my mother's idea. Apparently, I wasn't supposed to resume work a day after my wedding. It's not a husbandly thing to do and I haven't been treating you right."Blair rolled her eyes. "Well, that's something I expect every man should know...not you though," She muttered entering the bathroom, coming out few minutes later. "What are you doing?" Blair had caught Dylan holding her diary. "That's personal!""Calm down I wasn't reading it, I was only placing back for you, you're the one who left it laying around carelessly."Though they didn't fight as often as the first few weeks of their marriage, there were still occasional arguments every now and then. Blair had been counting, it has been two months

    Dylan returned just when Blair was coming down the stairs with her bags. "Let me help you with that," he offered. She was to tired, so she let him. "What are you carrying in here?" He said as he took the bag from her. "We are only going to be away for a week, not a month.""Everything in that bag is very important," she told him. "And that's not all, there's another bag still up in the room." He shot her a look, but she only laughed, enjoying herself."Are you guys leaving already?" Donna asked when she saw Blair, who had just come down from the stairs."Yeah," Blair said giving her a quick hug. "I guess it's still next week then.""Blair, where are you!" Dylan shouted from outside."I better go now, before he comes and drags me out himself.""You guys have an amazing time!" Donna waved as they drove off.Blair had her head phones on, listening to one of Erin's asmr, the one she had specially recommended to Blair. In just the first minute, Blair had to admit that she was feeling more

    "His sister?" Blair questioned with a frown. "I'm not his sister, I'm his wife." She scoffed. "And I'll have whatever he's having.""Uh, I'm so sorry. I swear I didn't know you two were involved like that because..." Giving one last look at Dylan, she hurried away.Blair wanted to mention to the girl that she shouldn't have been so quick to assume things, it reminded her of Dylan's receptionist. "Really?" Blair asked once she was gone."What?" He shrugged, reaching for the glass of water on the table. "Did I do something wrong?""You couldn't even have the decency to flirt with her behind my back? She thought I was your sister and that's only because she didn't think you would be flirting with her before your wife.""I didn't flirt with her, I simply told her I would have whatever she thought best. What's so bad about that? When did that count as flirting?""Oh please." Blair scoffed. "I saw the way you were looking at her, you were obviously flirting and-""Why do you care anyways."

    "Yes, I-" Blair stopped dancing the moment she saw Dylan walking towards them, she tried to free herself from Michael's hold.immediately, but he had a pretty strong grip. "Let go of me Michael.""Come with me." He pulled her away from Michael, removing his hold from Blair's arm, then proceeding to brush invincible dust from where Michael's hands had been on Blair. "You shouldn't let other men lay your hands on you ""Dylan? What are you doing here?" Blair looked from Michael to Dylan, a panicked look on her face. "I thought you already left.""Hey, what don't you just leave the lady alone-""Please shut up. I'm speaking to my wife. Next time if you need an ass to grind against your crotch, go pay for a lap dance, or even better find for yourself a wife." He turned to Delphine. "You, come with me." Not waiting for a reply or a reaction, he began pulling her away."Husband? But she told me she wasn't here with anyone," Michael said, but when he saw Blair was not resisting Dylan, he shru

    "Ok. I'm going to rest my head now. I am tired of today." He let her go this time, she needed the rest, they both did.~~~Dylan couldn't sleep that night. For some strange reason he didn't feel he was allowed to sleep. He wanted to do something nice, to make it up to Blair. But he had no idea in mind and he knew Blair was not the kind of girl who fell for material items, but he didn't know what else to do. He had gotten up early in the morning to go prepare breakfast for her. He had gotten to the kitchen, excited till he remembered he didn't know one thing about cooking. Growing up in a rich home, Dylan only stepped his feet in the kitchen to eat food, never to make them. So instead he had to order breakfast, he decided he would just lie to Blair that he was the one who cooked it and that's exactly what he had done."Hi, I actually prepared breakfast," he said as she came down that morning."Uh...You prepared breakfast." She walked slowly to the table where the food was set out alrea

    Blair shrugged. "Well, you see two weeks ago, we went on this vacation, which his mother had well made us go to. We kind of hard a big fight and after talking issues out, he promised to work on himself and well, that's what he's doing. After this, we've been working on ourselves, the foundation to a good relationship is friendship. We'll see our things go from there.""Really?" Samantha asked still in disbelief. She had not had one conversation with Dylan since Blair got married to him, but from all the things Blair did say about him, she found it hard to believe that someone could just have a switch after one conversation."Yeah. He's been really sweet, kind, patient and he hasn't raised his voice at me since then.I mean, Samantha I couldn't even share a bed with him before, we would always get into a fight. I don't know, maybe all we needed to have done right at the start was talk and then things wouldn't have been so bad. He is actually better and I'm starting to like this new Dyla

    "That's not true!" Blair snapped at Sylvia, surprising even herself. A week ago and she might have been supporting Sylvia, instead she would have added more words against Dylan. But they both have been having lot of conversations now and Blair now understood why Dylan must have 'strongly disliked' her in the beginning like he said. "He is not so bad.""You know," Samantha finally spoke up. "I wasn't going to say anything, but don't you think that's a little harsh thing to say about your own cousin."Sylvia didn't look guilty at all. "I don't think it is, if it's the truth.""Hold on, so you don't even care at all? How jobless must you have been to work all the way here just to badmouth your own cousin?" Samantha cussed. "Did Dylan do something in the past? Something I don't know of?"She didn't give a reply to Blair, which to Samantha and instead faced Blair instead. "Did they tell you about Clara?" Samantha let out a cuss when she saw Samantha was ignoring her. "I'm sure he told you

Blair finished. Her eyes shone as she spoke, but there was nothing more she could say."Wow, to think that I treated her like my daughter. I even let her sleep in this house several times. I'm so shocked and I'm glad that she didn't hurt you and Dylan physically." Her mom responded in amazement."Yes mom, I can't really explain how I felt when I found out that she was behind everything. She never thought of me as her friend and it made me so sad, mom. But I guess everyone meets one or two fake people, right?" She laughed as she sipped her wine."I'm really sorry, Blair. I didn't know that you were going through all of us. I wish you told us, we would have found a way to help you. I'm sorry my dear, I'm sorry that you lost a friend."

The fact that she was with Dylan as well was proof enough.He quickly rushed out of the station to call Samantha.~~~~~The detective banged on Samantha's door severally before she opened it.She lived in a condominium in an exclusive estate.

    The whole cooking experience for Blair was nothing short of relief for Blair. It completely relieved her of stress and overthinking.Although Donna didn't let her do much because she wasn't completely strong, the little that she did made her cheer.In some other households that Blair came across in the past, the owners of the house barely interacted with their workers. They didn't talk to them or ask them how they felt about certain rules and certain things that happened in the house. Everything was just as it is, formality was taken seriously.Blair didn't want that in her household. She wanted a family, where everyone is treated with respect and kindness. A place where even the security guards were comfortable, where the workers could make friends and be happy.But that didn't mean that they were going to be tolerated if they abused her act of kindness towards them. What Blair hated the most was people who took kindness for hours."The food is done and ready, Blair," Donna announced

Blair complimented.She let Dylan decide everything, from the movies to the snacks. "Yeah, it was. I picked it." He answered with pride."Shut up."

You are so annoying." She groaned.Dylan laughed.Blair's phone rang, it was beside her. She picked it up and checked who it was."Richard?" She said out loud."What? Why would he be calling you?" Dylan asked."I have no idea. Let's find out, Dylan. I'll put it on speaker, so please don't make any sound." She begged him."Alright! Alright, jeez, what do you take me for?" He frowned."You're gonna ask that now?" She chuckled."Why not?" He asked."Darn, the phone isn't ringing anymore. You better pray he calls again

    The next morning, Dylan woke up first. He forgot to ask her if he should stay with her and not go to work.He thought deeply about it because he had a very important meeting with an investor from Spain. His wife was also very sick and he didn't want to leave her. Donna might not be able to watch her like he wants her to.He had an idea for the meeting but he didn't know if the investors would agree to it. Dylan thought of attending the meeting via a conference call, he already prepared a presentation. So he would just use his office and everything he prepared for the meeting.He didn't feel like it should be a problem if it wasn't there. The meeting just required a few things that needed to be discussed.He spoke to them when he went on his trip, so they had already been briefed about everything.Dylan quietly left the room to make a phone call to the office. He called his secretary first.Meanwhile, Blair stirred in her sleep the moment Dylan left the bed. She was used to her husban

    The whole atmosphere in the room ticked him off. It wasn't as if he was angry or upset with Blair, he was just confused because he didn't know why she was like that.He even asked her several times and she kept telling him that she was okay.Dylan had no choice but to believe her, he didn't want to stretch the issue so he decided to go back to his office.He buried himself in his work throughout the night.The next morning, Dylan left for the office earlier than usual.
