Adam stood up from the chair and cleared his throat, his eyes fixed on Althea. "I'll leave you two to get to know each other better," he said.

As he walked toward the door, Althea's curiosity was piqued, but she couldn't bring herself to ask him where he was going. She was determined to stick to the agreement they had made.

Before Adam could leave, Hilda spoke up. "Sir," she said, her voice tentative. "May I ask a question?”

Adam turned to face Hilda, his expression unreadable. Hilda took a deep breath and asked the question that had been on her mind. "Where are you going, Adam?"

Althea silently thanked Hilda for asking the question she wanted to know the answer to. She couldn't bring herself to ask, but she needed to know.

Adam let out a small smile, the first genuine smile Althea had seen from him. "I have a meeting with Mr. Carter," he said. "I'm going to see him now.”

Althea was surprised to hear Adam refer to his father by his name instead of "Dad" or "Father." She wondered if th

    “Althea…I” Adam tried to say.Althea held up a hand, cutting him off. "Just don't, please," she said, her voice wavering.She swiped at her eyes, trying to compose herself. "Hilda," she said, her voice still trembling, "the lightbulb in my bathroom isn't working. Can you help me change it?"Hilda rose from her seat, concern etched on her face. “Madam, Adam didn't me-” As Hilda started to speak, Althea cut her off. "Can you just help me fix the lightbulb?" she asked, her voice suddenly high-pitched.Hilda let out a sigh. "Yes, I'll help you," she said. "I'll be there in a moment.""Thank you," Althea said in a whisper. She turned and headed back to her room.Hilda and Adam watched her go, neither of them saying a word. Finally, Adam turned to Hilda. “How much do you think she heard, Hilda?” he asked."I'm not sure how much she heard," Hilda responded. "But I need to go help her with the lightbulb," She continued. "We'll figure out the rest later, sir."Adam nodded, giving Hilda the p

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives    JUST FOR TONIGHT

    Adam scooped Althea up in his arms, pulling her onto his lap. He gently kissed her again, and Althea closed her eyes, savoring the feeling of his lips on hers.They were so caught up in the moment that the world around them seemed to disappear. It was as if they were in their own little bubble, just the two of them, where nothing else mattered.But then, Adam pulled back. Althea opened her eyes, a question in her own gaze."Is this really what you want?" he asked again, his voice low and gentle.She drew a deep breath and nodded. She was certain of her decision, even though she couldn't deny that she resented him. But there was no other choice.Then, without another word, she leaned in and kissed him. And as their lips met, all of her anger and resentment melted away. She was left with only the feeling of him - of his warmth, his tenderness, his love.As their lips met, Althea's entire body felt alive, as if every nerve ending was on fire. Her senses were heightened, her heart racing,

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   I STILL HATE YOU

    Adam and Althea made love and had pure ecstacy for hours, until finally they both collapsed, utterly spent. They slept in each other's arms, their bodies wrapped around one another like two puzzle pieces that had finally found their perfect fit. One would never believe that they hated each other. Althea woke up in the middle of the night, with a pressing need to relieve herself. She quietly slipped into her clothes and out of bed and tiptoed to the bathroom, trying not to wake him. After she was done, she found herself wide awake and decided to step out onto the balcony, the allure of sleep eluding her for the time being.Althea stood on the balcony, looking up at the night sky. The stars seemed brighter and more numerous than she had ever seen them before. Perhaps it was the way the city lights were diffused by the misty air, or maybe it was the feeling of being somewhere new, away from the pressures and obligations of her everyday life. As she gazed at the stars and found solace in

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   TIMOTHY? A CHEATER?

    Hilda's face went pale, her mouth opening and closing as she searched for the right words. "I... I'm sorry, madam" she stammered. "I didn't mean to.""It's okay," Althea said, her voice soft but stern. "But I need you to do something for me. Please let me know when Adam leaves for work, and don't tell him about this."Hilda nodded, her eyes wide. "Of course, Mrs. Ruiz... I mean, Mrs. Wilson." She bit her lip, mortified at her slip of the tongue. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to call you that."Althea sighed, her heart heavy. She wasn't sure how she felt about being referred to as Mrs. Wilson. On the one hand, it felt strange and wrong, like she was living a lie. On the other hand, it was a reminder of the impossible situation she found herself in."It's okay, Hilda," she said, trying to reassure the flustered housekeeper. "Just... let me know when Adam leaves, please.”Althea just turned around and went into her room, closing the door gently behind her.After Althea laid on her bed, she

  • For The Rest Of Our Lives   HOW DID HE CHEAT ON ME?

    Althea denied having any knowledge of Timothy cheating on her, revealing her lack of awareness.“No, I never knew anything about Timothy cheating on me.” She said Milan chimed in, "We all thought you knew, that's why you broke up with him and rushed into marriage with Adam."Aura added, “I'm even surprised how she did that. I can't believe it! Althea, you married the son of Mr. Carter Wilson, the most feared man in the city, and the shocking part is that no one had set their eyes on Adam for so long until you got married to him!” "I mean, if you think about it, it's really not that surprising. They're both family friends, so maybe it was an arranged marriage or something," Katarina mused.As the girls chatted away, Althea stayed quiet, her mind buzzing with questions about the surprising revelation. She couldn't seem to gather her thoughts, everything was just a jumble in her head."Timothy, a cheater? This has got to be a lie!" she thought to herself, but deep down, a small part of

    “Yeah, it's hard to believe that she actually got married. I mean, back then, she used to be so obsessed with you that it was sickening. Who would have thought that Cherry would be able to love someone else?!” Amos said, chuckling a bit."Yeah, I remember those days. It wasn't so funny back then," Adam replied.Who would have thought that men, successful business men do gossip too? Althea thought to herself.“By the way-”Amos was about to say something when Althea cut in, sounding annoyed as she asked, “Can we please just go now? I really don't want to be here anymore.” Her tone was brusque, and it was clear she was getting frustrated.Both Amos and Adam seemed taken aback by her sudden outburst. Adam teased, "Oh, now she's ready to go!" and they both laughed. Were they making fun of her? Althea thought. She instantly concluded that they were and immediately walked out on them.“She's a tough one, isn't she?” Amos commented once Althea had walked out.“Yeah, that's why I love her.” A

It was a place she hadn't thought about in years, but the memories came flooding back as soon as she laid eyes on it. Adam seemed to notice her reaction, and a satisfied smile spread across his face.“You remember this place, don't you?” he asked, his voice gentle.Althea nodded, unable to find the words to respond.“Come on, let's go inside.” Adam said.She couldn't believe he still remembered this place after all this time. It has been so long. They both got out of the car and Althea couldn't stop staring at the building. The look in her eyes made Adam happy. She didn't even wait for him to open the car door for her. Althea's mind went blank and she was left speechless, tears welling up in her eyes. She gasped as memories of the past came flooding back.The building in front of them was a place she had always loved. It was her favorite ca

Kabir moved on to put his second hand around her waist, drawing her closer to him, causing Zaya to let out a hitched breathing.Kabir leaned in again on one side of her ears and whispered “You smell so nice!” with a deep voice, taking a whiff of the scent of her perfume from the side of her neck.Kabir leaning him and taking a sniff of Zaya's side neck was like heaven to her body. She didn't know when she almost let out a moan but held back in caution.“A minute is already over.” She announced to him as she tried to move but he pulled her back in.

They're a lot of fun, and they're great for taking goofy pictures with friends. Have you ever used one before?[2/27, 2:31 PM] Sapphire: Sure, here's how it works.
