After I hand Niles to Emily, I hold Maddy’s hand as we walked to the backyard. “Emily just did not know that you are still not ready for that. Just ignore it.” I said to Maddy.She did not answer me, so I looked up to her, “babe?” I called up to her.She then shook her head and looked like she was deep in thoughts, “I know. I understand.” She said.I nodded my head as I smiled at her. “I mean, I will wait for you.” I said as I kissed her hand. And continued to walk.As we walk for several minutes, she still did not say anything, I looked at her and asked, “Hey, anything that has been bothering you? You seemed off.” I said.She took a deep breathe, “Where do you picture yourself, 5 years from now?” she asked me.I looked at her, “I picture that we would have gotten married by then, and having a daughter already.” I exclaimed happily.Her eyes looked at me dimmed, “What if I told you that I have not picture us going there by then, wou- would you hate me for that?” she asked sadly.I sigh
Emily did not say anything for a few minutes, before she said, “I did not choose him, Joseph. Mum and dad did.” She started. Joseph shook his head , disapprovingly. “You chose him when you decided thag you want to take him back , after us, your family asked to divorce him.” Joseph said.I slapped Joseph’s hand again , “stop it Joseph.” I told him.Then Emily answered Joseph. “you will know it when you have a kid , Joseph. It was also not easy on my side, but what can I do?” she asked silently. “I know I looked stupid. I took him back. I wanted my son to have both of his parents with him.” Emily said. “ And this is my life we are talking about. You all asked me to get married, then I got married even with a man that I barely know , yes he was so bad , I almost gave myself up for that. But when I know that there is a little creature live in me, I know I did not live for myself only. There is my kid , and when I gave birth, did you think it was easy? I was also so ready to lose myself
JosephI held Maddy’s hand as I led her to my room. “So this is my room.” I told her.Then I led her to stood on my bed while me stood in front of her.She smiled at me. “Yeah, ok thank you for showing me.” She said.I looked at her and smiled as I also think how much had she tried to handle me. “ you have put up a lot with me. And I do not know how you did it, but really thank you, for everything.” I told her truthfully. “I sometimes felt like I do not even deserve you.” I praised her.She just shook her head, “ we are lucky to have eachother , and I believe that.” She said. “ listen, Babe.. you are a good person. And I know that, I can feel it.” She told me. Then I knelt down in front of her.I sighed deeply , before I said , “ babe.. I have not told you why I let the very same woman that I went on a blind date with work with me as my secretary..” I started as I looked straight in to her eyes.“The one and only reason I wanted to give her the job was because she needed that. She nee
My dad turned his head to Maddy and said, “ see, just the way that he defended himself said it all out at how stubborn he is.” My dad said. I just sighed slowly. And smiled at how family accepted Maddy.“ So , Amy .. when is your fashion week again? I forgot it already. I am old now.” My dad turned to look at Emily. Emily raised her head and smiled sweetlg at my dad. “It is going to be held next Saturday , dad. And I want you to clear all of your schedule. I want all of my family to be there and supporting me at my comeback. It has been 2 years since I held any fashion show.” She exclaimed happily.“ And dad , mum you both are definitely in the very first row too “ she continued happily.“ I realy can not wait to see the new collection of yours.” My mum replied excitedly. Then she turned her head to Maddy, “this is your first time , but surely it will not be the last. I am sure you are going to be with us for a really long time,” my mum finished her sentence with such a warm and lo
AaronAfter we had our dinner, we all sit in the living room, while Niles had fallen asleep in Emily’s room.I held Emily hand in mine as I brought it to my lips and kissed it. I looked up at her and smiled at her , mouthing an I love you.She smiled at me and mouth an I love you back to me. My heart melts over the small gesture of hers.“ You both look like the newly wed .” Emily’s dad said and made us both turn to look at him.He smiled at us , “ Aaron, this time I do really wished that you could take a good care of Emily now. I would not want her to feel hurt or feel neglected anymore.” Her dad said.I nodded my head proudly, “ I promised to be always by her side through thick and thin. I was really so scared about losing her. And Niles. I made a really big mistake which is why I understand you, mum, or even Joseph did not believe in me anymore. But that is not a problem, I promise I will prove it to you all. That now I am a changed man .” I said.“ yeah , dad .. he has changed a lo
MadalynneI was so sure about what I told to Joseph, I am ready for him and us to be tied together. Seeing how warm Emily’s little family is , warm my heart.I started to imagine how it would be like if it was me. Having a baby to take care of, and stuff. I did not even realize how deep in thoughts I am until Myles tapped my shoulder.I shook my head trying to bring my self back at reality. I saw how Myles tried to keep his laughter back. “You were so deep in thought, I walk by and spotted you in the very same spot, so I decided that I wanted to come in to greet you , but even after I opened up the door and entered , you still did not recognize me.” Myles trying to explain him self.I stood up, as I also asked him to sit down in the chair in front of my desk. “Sit down, Myles.” I said.He nodded his head as he sat down, “so , you seemed happy , I guess?” Myles asked.I nodded my head, “yeah, I am . So sorry. i was just feeling overly happy because of some exciting things are happenin
JosephI bowed my head as I walked out from Emily’s office. I know I have been too out of line last night. Seeing her cutting all of the communication we had already proved me. But Maddy told me to still come here, so maybe Emilu could count it as an effort, which is I agreed on with her. That is why I am here today.I sighed as I entered the lift. I pulled out my phone and saw that Rebecca called me. I was about call him back when there is a message popped up in my phone screen. I read the message was from Maddy informing me that she is having lunch with her co-worker.I replied with a simple, enjou, babe.Before I called back to Rebecca and informing her that I am not coming back to the office again. After that I head off to my car and started the engine. I am driving to my parents’ house again. I wanted to inform my mum that I am going to prepare for everything about my surprise proposal to Maddy.***My mum stood up once she looked that I visited her again , “ So what’s with the
As I woke up from my nap, I went to clean up a bit before going downstairs.“Hmm mum , I can smell it already!” I said to my mum as I saw her hold a bowl of the pork adobo and placed it on the table.My mum looked up at me and smiled , “ then come here! And finish all this. It is all for you.” My mum said.I nodded my head and walked up to the table. My mum also sat down in front of me. “You know this dish is a perfect match with rice, so I cook the rice also. Have it together.” My mum said.I nodded my head, “let’s have lunch together then.” I said as I scooped the rice for my mum too.Then we both ate together as we were also talking about some stuff.While I was also asking my mum where does she want to visit for her birthday present from me and stuff. Once we are done with lunch we also continued to talk in the living room.Time flies when you are having fun, they said. That is what I felt too. “Woah, Joseph! Rare to see you here. What bring you here then ?” I suddenly heard an e
