Carden stomped his feet against the tiled floor of their living room. His legs spread widely on the sofa, his arms across his chest, and his face in a frown. At this time, he was usually outside, hanging out with his friends with a beer in his hand but right now, he decided to stay at home and try to watch what was his wife doing whenever he was not there.
He thought, the woman was just avoiding him and she locked herself to her room but it had been hours and she hasn’t come out yet. Earlier, he went towards her room. It may be unnoticeable, but when his wife was not in front of him, he still feels the care and love towards her. There are times where he missed talking to her and cooker for her, that was why he woke up earlier to cook for breakfast and leave it until she arrives but when he saw the woman awake at the same time, he came back to reality.Whenever he would see the bump in her stomach, he’d instantly be reminded about how the woman cheated on himHello! Please don't forget to leave comments!
“My husband…was infertile?” she whispered to herself and glanced at the widely opened front door. She tapped her ears, unable to believe what the man told her before he left her in that place dumbfounded. Was she deaf? Or she didn’t hear her right? Her tears stopped from falling, and the only thing running in her mind right now was his last words. Disappointment, hurt, disbelief, and vexation mixed in her mind that she fell on the sofa while she still couldn’t take her eyes off the door. Carden was infertile. She leaned both her elbows on top of her knees and covered her face with her palms. She groaned and squeezed her eyes close. Even when those words came from her husband, she still couldn’t believe him. How could it be true when she was pregnant? All of those nights, she didn’t remember him using protection and she didn’t do it with another man. Dalmi loved him dearly that even if she was angry and dr
CHAPTER 91“What the f*ck Carden?” a familiar voice rang behind them and revealed Jack’s fuming face and immediately walked towards him. His balled fist rushed towards Carden’s face, the man fell, but Jack seemed like he was not yet satisfied with what he did and held the neckline of his shirt, crumpling the thin fabric hard and almost choking him. “Jack! Carden!” Dalmi yelled and froze in her place. “I didn’t know you are treating my best friend like a sh*t! The hell is wrong with you?” he punched him again, but this time, Carden also held fought back and punch his side, making Jack groan in pain as the other man stood up and wiped the blood flowing down his lip. “What the hell is your problem?!” Carden huffed and glared at him, while the man, who seemed like a different person earlier was still holding on to his side. “Dalmi! What happened- Jack!” Brooke hurriedly attended
BBAP CHAPTER 92Dalmi immediately turned the volume up and straightened her back when she saw the news about the Thompson Towers. Confused as to what was happening, she leaned close and let her feet fell down the edge of her bed, her eyes never leaving the screen of the large television in front of her. From there, she saw the same large crowd in front of the building and were shouting angrily. Large white banners and different papers were lifted in the air, and the police kept on stopping them from going inside the building. A reporter was talking in front, reporting about the large rally in front of the tower, but nothing seemed to be understandable for Dalmi when she heard the news mentioning Carden’s name.Without thinking much about what happened the last time they saw each other, Dalmi stood up and grabbed a black jacket on the cabinet where she stored all her clothes and put on a pair of white shoes. She didn’t bother to change her clothes and ju
“What did you do, Carden? I’ve been asking you many times about the people rallying even before we turned out like this but you told me it was all fine,” Disappointment, vexation, and pain lingered in the woman’s voice as he eyed the man who was still standing in the veranda.A large gap stood between them, and a minute after that eerie silence, the man rushed back to the dark room, closed the sliding door, and pushed the curtain, as though he was avoiding something.“Oh no, no, no…why are they here?” the man whispered to himself as he went towards the bed, his eyes kept on wandering towards the bed like he was searching for something.“I need help, I need someone who could help,” he nervously went to the bedside table when he saw that his phone was there but the moment he turned it on, notifications boomed it that he got no choice but also throw it back to the bed without checking it.At that time, C
BBAP CHAPTER 94 “Mom, what if Papa doesn’t come?” the six-year-old kid looked up to her with a pout on his lips, His thick lashes and pair of pitch-black eyes made him seem like a poor kitten while he bowed his head and hugged his superman toy tightly. Dalmi’s eyes went towards the large space where people were passing by. They were sitting side-by-side on a black bench inside the airport. Their luggage was placed beside them as they weight for Johannes Courie. It was a Sunday morning in Chicago but both Denver and Dalmi Arizona were waiting for the man before they board. “Love, how many times should I tell you that you should call him Uncle Johannes and not papa?” she asked in the sweetest voice she had and messed is hair. The kid groaned and removed her hand on his hair. His red lips protruded, and brows furrowed. “But Mommy, he said I could call him Papa because he is my father,” he looked at her with confusi
BBAP CHAPTER 95“Why did you took so long to arrive, girl?” Jack’s compliant voice welcomed her when she jumped off the car. She first turned to the passenger seat and lifted Denver before she faced her best friend. The mestizo in front of her never changed when it comes to his words, but he surely matured when it comes to his physical features. Jack’s hair was brushed up, his body became a bit bulky compared to what he had years ago, and his aura screamed masculinity. If a person doesn’t know him that much, they would surely think that this man never liked the same gender from the past because of his body improvement, however, what she admired is that his treatment towards her never changed even after years came by. Dalmi put Denver down and let him greet his godfather before she approached Jack with a hug. “The travel hours from Chicago to the Philippines took sixteen hours, Jackie. Don’t blame me,” she shook her h
BBAP CHAPTER 96“Where’s Brooke, by the way? I thought she’ll also be here to see me, I feel like I wanna sulk.” Dalmi wrinkled her nose when she noticed that Jack’s wife wasn’t there. “She’s busy in her pastry business. She told me she’ll visit you once she clears her schedule,” Jacked answered and raised his brows. “She really pursued that business? I thought she likes makeup and beverages.” She laughed. “I also didn’t know that she had this desire to bake, Dalmi. When we got married, she told me she just acted like she wanted to learn how to mix alcohol because she wanted to spend time with me. It was hilarious,” Jack said while shaking his head. They were now in their Garden. The kids were playing Jenga with her parents while sitting on the mat while the two of them were sitting opposite to each other in a glass table and chair with juices in front of them.
Dalmi’s eyes widened and her heart pounded fast. It was beating aggressively like a lion was living inside it, struggling to come out of her chest that it was almost hurting her.“What took you so long?” the man was surely asking his brother, but to Dalmi, it sounded like a question meant for her although the man wasn’t looking at him. She couldn’t believe it.Of all the people she was expecting to cross paths with when they are still in the Philippines, she hasn’t predicted that she would meet Carden Thompson the earliest.She bit her lips and moved her head sideways. It may look rude or she might be acting weird, but she just couldn’t get herself to face him and act like everything was fine for her just like the old times. If there would be a
