Merliah's POINT OF VIEW.
-----------------------
We went to the Catholic church together to attend a baptism. Before entering the receiving area, I went to the comfort room. Maurice, lore, and Max went first to the venue where the guests were gathered. I was nervous knowing that many of my niece’s baptism guests knew us from the university before. We will see familiar faces, I am kind of nervous since today is our first time to appear in public and to people who possibly knew us as dean and student back then.
I wonder what they will say when they see us together?
I face the large mirror of the comfort room. I combed my hair and applied some lip gloss. Sudden
----------------Merliah’s POINT OF VIEW---------------------------------We bid goodbye first because we were both tired from work. Maurice and I were in the parking area but they left earlier because I went back to the restroom. When I sat in the shotgun seat, our Tel*gram rang at the same time, I looked at who and what the message was. We almost dropped the phone in our hands.“You look uncomfortable in the picture.”I do look pale and stiff in the photograph. If they hadn't teased us, I wouldn't look awkward in the picture.What happened earlier before we were forced to take a picture was…
-------------------------Merliah's POINT OF VIEW-------------------I woke up to the sunlight reflecting through the window. Aside from the sunlight, I had a naughty guy next to me, poking my cheek."Are you going to pierce my cheek?" I sighed as I gently squeezed my eyes.“I'm waking you up. What do you want for breakfast? I will cook whatever you want to eat.” He kissed my forehead."Give me another hour. I'm still sleepy," I replied while embracing his waist."We'll be late. It's embarrassing to make the person measuring your gown and my suit wait fo
—-------------Merliah's POINT OF VIEW—----------------“My princess is quiet. Do you feel sleepy? Do you want us to go home? ” he said while reading a pile of papers.“It’s boring here in your office. I'll just wander off, I'll be right back so you don't have to find your beautiful fiancée.” I got up from lazily lying on the sofa. I approached him and kissed his cheek.The truth is that I was bothered by what I heard but I can't bring myself to ask my fiancé. He might lose his mood and we might quarrel. But it's not bad if I ask, isn't it? It’s not like I’m accusing him of hiding a woman.
—-------------Merliah's POINT OF VIEW—----------------I could have asked who Elise was and what kind of relationship they had if only Max had not slept early. I had no chance to ask him this morning because I woke up, he's no longer lying beside me. I took a shower and got ready to go to work. I went up to the kitchen for a quick breakfast and I found out that he had left cooked Tocino and a brewed coffee in the coffee maker as well. I looked at the double-door fridge with the notes stuck. *Good morning, I had to leave early. Send me a message onceI smiled when I read the note but my mood immediately soured when I remembered that woman —Elise. Just by the sound of her name, my mind had played different scenarios immediate
—-------------Maximillan's POINT OF VIEW—----------------It’s my first time to yell at her. It must have scared her because we haven’t had a serious fight since. I cooled my head on the balcony. I need to compose my temper because I needed to calm down before facing her again. I lost control, I was jealous, and the fatigue and stress at work pushed my patience to its limit.I shouldn’t have raised my voice. It's too late to regret but it will never be too late to ask for her forgiveness and admit that I was wrong. Marriage is indeed difficult. I thought love alone is our free pass for understanding each other. I realize that quarrelling is inevitable, the day will come, whereas our bad mood will force us to mis
—--------------------Merliah’s POINT OF VIEW—-----------------After quarreling, spending time together without worries is a must to fix the gap in our intimacy. We decided to spend quality time outside today because we've been busy these past few daysWe deserve this date. I want to do what we couldn't do when we were still at Elysian University. I want to go to those places that we couldn't go to when I was her dean and professor because we were afraid of backlash in our relationship.The first place we visited was the playground near MAUI. It was the place where Max kissed me next to the swing. I still have these uncontrollable butterflie
—--------------------Merliah's POINT OF VIEW—-----------------I stood in the body-sized mirror of the hotel where our wedding was being held. My heart was pounding as I listened to the sound of a large clock hanging on the wall.“This is it, liah. Today you will become Mrs. Dereux,” I whispered.Later I heard the door open. I turned around and saw a man holding the door, and I wondered why he wasn’t walking closer to me. He just stared at me from head to toe.I was nervous seeing his reaction, he was not the epitome of the happy man who's about to get married to the love of his life.“W-What’s wro
—--------------------Merliah's POINT OF VIEW—-----------------"Hey, what are you doing there?" I patted Maurice with my foot.“Liah”“It's late, why are you sleeping outside? Don’t tell me you forgot the passcode of your pad? Why don't you call me Lore?”"She changed the passcode and forbade me to let me in."I scratched my head as I tried to figure out what had happened to the two of them. Lore probably got mad at my twin again."Wait, I'll just put these i
