Music BoxWhen Dave said that Davvy is not okay, I immediately decided to visit the kid, even if I'm still irked to his presence that time.I just feel that my heart got softened when it's about Davvy. I immediately got dressed and preceded Dave and said I would come next, but he didn't listen.Instead of waiting for me in the living room, he was also convincing me that I should just go with him. But I was stubborn and I didn't follow him. I just told him that I can ride on my own. That makes it easier for me to go home anytime I want. He did nothing but let me do what I wanted.When I stopped my car in Dave's yard, I immediately went straight to Davvy's room, not minding that Dave was still there and waiting for me in the living area. Then now, Dave was silently following my steps.I knocked on the door still not moving the man just looking in my direction."Sir. . . Ma'am Brii?" Sheryl opened the door."How's Davvy?" Dave asked immediately."It's still the same, Sir. She doesn't tal
Crying Baby"Davvy." I sighed when Dave followed inside. He sat on the other side of the bed while stroking the child's head. "Please, tell me. Are you not feeling well, baby?" Dave asked weakly."I don't want you to be here, Daddy," she replied."Why? Are you mad at, Daddy? You're not even talking to me these past few days. Daddy is worried, baby."Davvy still did not comply. Didn't even look at Dave."Davvy, alright, if you don't want me to be here. . . Okay, Auntie will just leave now." I said with a heavy heart. I looked at Dave as he got serious then sighed. "Bye, baby. . ." I stood up after I caressed her head tenderly.I sighed, I was about to move my feet when suddenly I felt a tiny arm around my body. Gradually my heartbeat increased and I suddenly felt happy."D-Davvy. . .""I really want to hate you, but I can't, Aunt Brii," she said as she hugged me. "Will you stay here for a while?"I deeply shut my eyes. I took a deep breath and firmly restrained myself from being emotio
Checkup“Auntie, Auntie. . . wake up. Aunt Brianna, wake up. . .”“Hmm. . .” I was paralyzed by the small arm that was trying to wake me up.“Wake up, Aunt. . .”I covered my ear with a forceful tickling there. I slightly opened my eyes. There, I saw Davvy in her baby pajamas. I faked my sleep and let her play me first in my sleep. She did everything do to my face just to wake me up.After a few minutes, I opened my eyes completely. I smile a bit."Good morning, cutie." I winked."Good morning, beautiful." She smirked at me.This girl's face is real. I was taken aback. . .I pulled her tiny body. I made her lie down and I sat down. She was loudly laughing when I started to tickle her armpit and also her feet.“Auntie, that's enough. . . Stop . . .” she's tickled with my two hands.I stop and I lay down on her side. She leaned over me and hugged me around my waist.“How did you get inside my room, you little trespasser? All I know is that the door of my room is locked.” I asked while h
AffectedConfirmed. My boss, Mrs. Salazar, extended my work here in Mr. El-Greco’s company. I couldn't do anything because it had already been decided and Dave won again with his passive decisions.Then and until now, Dave is still a manipulative bastard. He really knows how to attack me and how to win his battle in silence. I knew that his extension of me to his company was connected to my stay at his house for Davvy.For me, it is an excuse to stay in his power first for the sake of the child but in his company, that would have been a different matter.But nothing, I really can't do anything.I can’t stop myself but give him a sullen look while he was entering the conference room. We are there to have a closed-door meeting together with the El-Greco’s board of directors and engineers wherein I belong.He barely looked at me as he took the place in the CEO chair. I immediately removed my gaze from him.Even though I've been in his house for a few days, I never touch it. He can only m
Respect"Hmp, what are you saying there?" I stared at him.“I can sense. Remember, I’m a man.”“Here we are, Xavier. Come on, before my time is up,” I said and ignored what he said.We both order our favorite coffee and snacks. We never ended up talking about anything about work. We laugh all over our sip of coffee. Xavier was as nice to talk to and he also had a sense as a person so we didn't notice the time."Thanks, Elle for your time, I really enjoyed your company."“Me too, Xavier, and thanks for the treat. Next time it's my treat if there is still another time.”He laughs at it. “See you again. Bye.”After leaving his car, I immediately entered Dave's company. I went straight to the powder room on the ground floor first. I face the big mirror then adjusted my face and sprinkled some perfume. When I’m already done, I smirked and I moved out.'Brii, face the devil in your life.' I thought to myself.“Hi, Lott. . .”"Hello, Ma'am." She smiled and looked up at me."Is your devil bo
Holding HandsWhen Davvy’s already falling asleep by my lullaby song, I immediately stood up as I lay next to her. I caught a glimpse of Dave just entering the kid's room. He approached the child and kissed her forehead.I ignored him. When I put on my slippers, I went to the door and went out without saying a word.“Still mad at me? That’s why you are still avoiding me?”I took a deep breath and looked straight at his hand that was holding my arm, then I stared at his face."Let me go, Dave," I said in a low tone.I get off his hand on me and head to the door of my room. I stop and I face him for a while. "Can you please stop following me!"“You are still not talking to me, Brianna. And you are always avoiding me,” again, he said it.“What now if I don't talk to you? Are you affected? Why? Because you want me on your bed? Is that so?” I grinned cynically at him and opened my room."Brii—"“You want to come in? Come in,"He breathes deeply. “It’s not what you think—”He didn’t finish
Sandcastle As Dave said, Davvy and I paddled to the beach that afternoon. It’s around 4:30 in the afternoon. Davvy and I wear the same color of swimwear. The girl also imitates me since she chose what the two of us will wear, while Dave wears his unbuttoned white polo long sleeve that is folded up to his arm and cream-colored shorts. He’s really hot because his beautiful chest and the well-organized hard muscles in his chest are just visible. When Davvy asked me to build a sandcastle, I did and I didn't expect Dave to come to us and help me build. I tried to avoid looking at him especially at his wide chest but Dave was probably the most teasing of all the teasing people I've known. I don’t want to assume but I feel like he intentionally touches my arm, he touches my hand unintentionally and speaks loudly so I can look at him. There is also a time when he suddenly has something in front of me. I'm all mad at what he's doing, but what I can't hide is that I blush when I catch him
LiarThe child looked around at the two of us until she spoke. "Why don't you like it, Daddy, Auntie?" Dave and I couldn't answer. "Okay, I'll take a picture of you two first.""What?" I reacted immediately."It's okay with me," Dave replied.Davvy dragged me to his father’s side. There was nothing I could do when Davvy came to the front to take a picture of us."Daddy, go near to Aunt Brii." She approached me. "You put your arms to her shoulder, Daddy."Shit! What kind of child is this?"Smile there, please?" A shout of the child.I swallowed as he put his arm around my shoulder."Hey, stay away from me!"“Give it to our daughter, Brianna. You, smile on the camera. If you don’t smile like that, I will stick you even closer to my body,” he whispered softly.“Why—”“In the count of three, smile, okay? One, two, three, click!”I could do nothing but smile in front of the camera. I endured Dave’s hold until Davvy’s three shots were over."Daddy, can you take us a shot with Auntie, then w
