"Hey ..."
"I told you not to act like that!" I said angrily to Kalex.
"I was just shutting my mouth just a while ago not until..." He defended himself.
"Shut up!" I finally said, cutting his words off.
He nodded but then formed a smirk on his lips. I just ignored him and turned my attention back to work. I have too much to do, I do not have time to talk.
Because maybe no one could talk, Kalex just chose to go out. Better yet, think coz it looks distracting. It only took a few minutes for him to return, carrying food. Suddenly my stomach boiled.
"What's that?" greedy!
"Lasagna and spaghetti." He smiled in response.
He knows what make me stop to what I am doing- foods, especially lasagna and spaghetti. He laid the food on the bed and he himself closed my laptop, he put it aside.
"Let's eat, I know you're still hungry." He said and devilishly smiled.
I don't moan anymore. I'm really hungry.

Gwyneth’s POV30th of December, our family decided to celebrate the New Years Eve at our resthouse in one of the famous city in the country. We wasn't able to hang on with them during the trip because Kalex has been busy lately and he needs to finish his work first before Holiday set in. So as a good and loyal wife, I patiently waited for him until he finishes his work and tagged along with him during the trip to our rest house."Are you hungry?" He asked.I then heard my stomach, as if signaling me to have a bite before it's too late and I would have done worse."Obviously, what do you think?" I asked, more like throwing a sarcasm between my words."Okay."We first went to a fast-food place to take out food. I badly need to get even just a bite because I do not know of how long will our trip go."You're rude when you're

Gwyneth’s POV"So, you're pregnant?" Kalex asked incredulously.Most of them widened their eyes and looks like in the state of shock. Who wouldn't get shock after hearing such unbelievable statement?Me? Pregnant? Are they kidding me? It's been only few months since I sent Justine to Germany and then now they were wishing me to be pregnant and suffers for how many freaking years? Psh."Of course, not! Don't be ridiculous," I rolled my eyes and gave him an unbelieving look."Then why did you vomit all of a sudden?" Aunt Editha raised a question."You as well gained some weight. You even ate too much than usual these past few days," mom added.I lifted my brow and gaze back in forth to the two woman in front of me. What made them think that I am pregnant when in fact I am not? Is behaving strangely these past few weeks can be a

Gwyneth’s POV“You look so happy? Did something happen during the holiday?” Asha asked me, making me stop my thoughts from floating.The holiday just ended and as usual, back to work after a short but well experienced holiday. I won’t deny the fact that I enjoyed our stay in the rest house and been loving as well Kalex’s company though he sometimes gets on my nerve.“What are you saying? I was just feeling great to attract good vibes and positivity as new year started,” I said, trying to divert her advance mindset into something more believing. Asha often conclude things with any valid statement, so it’s better to be sure than being sorry later on.She nodded her head and smiled sweetly. “Is that so? Then let me join your cup and let’s both attract the positivity in this world full of negativity!” she cheerfully laughed and even raised

Gwyneth’s POV"What time did you arrived home last night?" I asked Kalex, early in the morning.I was just staring at him, and he first sipped his coffee before he responded. "Past eleven, I guess." the coldness in his tone is pretty obvious.I wonder where he has been last night. I know something is off and I need to find what it is."Had you eat dinner?" I casually asked."Yeah. We had a team building last night,"Tch. So that's it! He had a team building last night and that doesn't include me. "You were with Reign for sure," I added without looking at him and pay attention to the food in front of me.Just a little more hint, and I'll gonna conclude that Reign is his mistress."Yeah," he admittedTch. He didn't even deny it. As much as I wanted to kick this punk's a*s, I

Gwyneth’s POVIt’s been a week but there still no progress for both Kalex and I. As much as I wanted to talk to him but my freakin’ courage never showed up.I also found out that he often goes out with Reign and that’s what bothered me more. What should I do? I was actually looking for a perfect timing to talk to him but we were both so busy.Since we transferred to our condominium unit, he seldom gets home and even in weekend, he still has a busy schedule. Every time I asked him to go home even just for once, but he keeps on declining and reasoned out that he has a dinner meeting with his client, but it turns out that he’s dining with Reign. How did I find out? I once asked his secretary when I happened to went past by his office, and since his secretary is not fond of lying, there she spilled the tea.“Kalex is not here, right?” I asked Aina when I ag

Gwyneth’s POVA week had passed since we both talk. I was waiting for his message or at least he gave me a ring, but nothing happened. It was as if I was waiting for nothing.From time to time I look at my phone. He might call or text. yes, I'm waiting, I'm not angry with him either, even with Reign. They did not want them to like each other, feel so sorry for Reign, he asked. I let go of my phone when it suddenly rang, well and it just fell on the bed. I quickly looked at who the caller was, Ryle."Hello? Gwyn?" He started."Hmm?""Are you mad?""No." Why should I be angry with him? If I was not angry with his cousin, I was just annoyed. What else to him? Especially and he does nothing wrong."Ah, for sure yes.""No, swear." I'm sure.He sighed. "Yeah, you're not mad. But surely, you're sad

He said and gave me a bouquet of roses."Do I look like ill for you to pay a visit?” I asked in my most sarcastic tone.Does he think highly of him? Why is he acting so cool now in fact he hurt me more than I deserve?“Look, I didn’t come here to fight with you—”“Is this a bribe?” I cut him off, pertaining to the flower that I was holding.I may sound harsh but I very well know that he’s up for something that’s why he come all the way here just to meet me."No, that's my ... apology gift."

Local time is ten past three in the afternoon and the temperature is 25 degrees Celsius ..."I can't help but to feel all the excitement as the crew announced that our plane landed. I've been peeking out the window for a while now because I really want to set foot in the Philippines again. It has only been six months, but it feels like forever since the day I've been here. I was excited to see Jase and Kalex. We video called almost every night and they also went to see me at Christmas. They stayed there for the whole holidays but it's not enough to compensate my longing for the two.The hard battle of homesickness!"Have a nice stay ma’am!" one of the crew greeted me before I went down on the plane.

Gwyneth’s POVI woke up with the clamorous knocking on my door. I looked at my clock; it's already 11 in the evening. Who would bother to visit me at this time? I don’t even know why I was on my out to see me at this hour when in fact I still had to sleep because my flight will be early tomorrow at five in the morning. I was still yawning while rubbing my eyes as I walk to the door."Gwyn! Gwyneth! Are you there?!" My yawning stopped and my eyes widened when I heard Kalex's loud voice. I immediately ran towards the door thinking that something might have happened to Jase."Kalex?" he was sweating and gasping as he put his hands on his knees to support himself. He's wearing his usual sleeping clothes, his jersey short and a white cotton shirt. "What are you doing here? Why are you gasping?""I ... took ... the ... stairs." He said as his chest is heaving from the gasps. It took me a second

Kalex’s POV"What's up?" Demitri asked as he sits in front of me. I asked him if he could come because I needed someone to talk to. I need someone who could knock some sense out of me. "Where's Jase?""Upstairs. Sleeping." I replied before I took a sip from the glass of whiskey in my hand. I know he's waiting for me to start talking but I fucking don't know where to fucking start."It's about Gwyneth, isn't it?" He asked when I didn't say anything. My chest tightened by the mere sound of her name. I miss her. I miss calling out her name and how she smiles at me in the morning."She's ... she's leaving tomorrow." I said in a low voice as I remember what she said five days ago. I don't even know how long she'll be gone. I was afraid to ask.My mind went crazy by just the thought of her leaving with that fucker and all I ever said to her was that she doesn't need to worry ...

Kalex’s POV"Mommy you're going with us tomorrow, right?" Jase asked Gwyn again as he draws on his book. I peeked at my son's ipad to see Gwyn's face. She's as beautiful as ever."Yes baby, how many times have you asked me that already? You silly kid!" I can't help but to chuckle as I chop the vegetables for our dinner. Jase quickly glanced at me and grinned."I'm just reminding you mommy in case you forget." I shook my head. Jase just reminded Gwyn for the third time in fifteen minutes since they started talking.He was actually referring to her school activity. Since it's family day, parents are requested to attend the said event with their child at school. Jase has been talking about it since he learned that Gwyn and I are both going. I refuse to be absent on his first family day.They talked for an hour. I love hearing their voice and their funny conversations, especial

Gwyneth’s POV"Why are you so quiet?" Quir asked me as we ride the elevator. I was on my way down earlier when I ran into him and he asked me to have lunch with him."Jase is with Kalex now and I don't have anything to do because I've already made all the proposals for my next event. I just need to submit." I sighed.This has always been my problem ever since Kalex and I had an agreement. When Jase isn't by my side I can't do anything so I usually just read a book until I fall asleep. Everything's just boring whenever Jase's not at home.Quir and I decided to eat outside the company. Sometimes the food is also boring because the menu is almost always the same."So I was thinking, how about we go out tonight?" He asked as we eat at one of our favorite place near the hotel. It's delicious here in case there's majesty so we only eat here when new wages.

Gwyneth’s POV"Excellent job, Gwyn." I beamed at as he opened his arms and I ran towards him to hug him. He picked me up and turned me around."I did it!" I shouted at him and we were both laughing. "The senator loved the theme for the party ... he loved everything."They even popped a confetti for me. One of our officemates opened a bottle of wine to celebrate and gave me one. "Cheers to Gwyneth!"After months of preparing one of the biggest events of the year, I'm just so glad I finished the job. Who would have thought that I would host a politician's birthday party?I've been the event manager of big business men in the country but the aura is still different when your clients are influential in the Philippines. I met the president, the vice president, and even celebrities last night! That’s how big was the event that I organized and I'm happy to see the proud look

Gwyneth’s POV"Sorry you had to wait." Kalex said as he took the seat in front of me. I stared at him intently while calling the server to give him coffee.Short stubbles are starting to grow on his chin. There are bags under his eyes and his hair is too long. To some, I'm sure he looked fine, but I know him too well to see that he's not. That's not the Kalex I know. These past few days must've been hard for him.I was making it hard for him."What do you want to talk about?" He asked after his coffee was served in front of him. His eyes made its way to mine, but then he immediately looked away. To this day he still can’t look at me."I'll go straight to the point." He nodded as he mixed his coffee. "I heard you ... at the bar. I heard what you said to Demitri." That made him look at me.His eyes are full of guilt that confirmed that everything I

Gwyneth’s POV"Quir?" He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that I'm okay."You scared me back there." He said and shook his head."I'm sorry. She just came out of nowhere." Said a man approaching us. He seems to be the driver of the car. He helped us stand up. "I really didn't see you." The man approached me. "Are you hurt? Should I bring you two to the hospital?""No. We're fine." Quir replied with a smile and then they talked. He glanced at me before shaking hands with the driver who said goodbye."So, what are you doing here besides killing yourself?" He joked. I was embarrassed to close my eyes because of his question."I haven't seen it." Is this man like everyone who sees me like this? I looked up at him when he chuckled. Since Quir is much taller than me he put his hands on top of my head and beamed at me."Let's get some
Emotionless Attachment Two Hundred and Forty Three
Gwyneth’s POVI walked into the building and went straight to Kalex's office. I can sense all those stares from the people here. I know others here know me because I was once Kalex’s high school friend. Maybe that’s also the reason why some of them were staring at me.I just ignored them because I have nothing to do with them anyway. I came here because of Kalex and they weren’t my goal. I also hate people looking at me, as if spotlight was pointing at me as of this moment. It looks like I’ll be their topic once I turned my back at them. These dumb as* has really nothing to do instead of focusing on their work. Tch.While walking to Kalex’s office I came across a kid chasing a ball. He was running and not looking to where he's going so I tried to avoid but he still collided with me, causing him to fall to the floor. Awts. His back must be hurt.“A
