ROSY

I slowly pushed the door open and stepped into her room. Madam Helen was seated in front of the fireplace, her eyes looked into a distance as the fire before her cackled and roared.

I slipped into the room and stood behind her, letting the heat from the fireplace warm up my body.

“The chair beside me is empty,” her voice made me jump into nervousness.

I swallowed hard and forced my numb feet to shuffle close to her. I dropped into the rocking chair and stared into the bright fire in the fireplace.

“I am not going to apologize for putting you through the pain of running in the rain and getting your blood pressure hiked up because of me,” she began.

“I wasn’t expecting one either,” I rasped out a reply.

Silence ensued between us after that exchange of brusque words.

The door opened and a maid walked in with a tray containing a teapot and some cups.

She set it down on a coffee table and poured out hot tea for the both of us.

“This is the best recipe for a cold lon

    ROSY Caleb’s whisper froze me and stopped me from pushing him away. My heart thumped loudly in my chest as I melted into his arms, the rain showering down on the both of us. None of us moved nor wanted to move. I couldn’t tell how long we remained standing there, but I knew we stood there till the heavy shower reduced to a drizzle. “I am sorry,” his wobbly voice muttered. I clenched my fist, trying to control my feet, that was almost sweeping me to the ground as they shook as a result of the cold springing up slowly in my body. “I—” “Shhh…” he whispered, shutting me up. I swallowed hard, feeling nervous with the way our wet body was glued against each other. Caleb slowly pulled away from me and bored his sad grey eyes into my heart. “I never trusted you, I—” “Shhh…” I cut him off and he smiled weakly, shuddering slightly. My head swirled as the cold increased, making me shiver. I staggered back and almost fell to the ground but he caught me by the

    ROSY The mouthwatering aroma of pasta made me moan and flutter my eyelids open. I sighed and rolled over on the bed, yawning loudly. A smile appeared on my face as I stared at the plate of pasta on top of the drawer beside the bed. I slowly sat up and craned my neck. My eyes widened and a lump formed in my throat as everything that happened last night replayed in my mind. “What the… what the…” I gasped and looked into the duvet. I breathed out in horror when I stared at my nude body under the duvet. “Did you forget so soon?” He muttered and I looked up. Caleb’s eyes were fixed on me in amusement. “I… did we?” I stuttered and turned red, biting my lips in embarrassment. “You asked for pasta,” he smiled, waving at the irresistible plate of pasta. “Is it morning already?” I asked as I quickly swept the plate into my hands and dropped it before me, scooping a forkful of pasta into my mouth."We made love an hour ago,” he said, and I blushed harder at the way he said tho

    ROSY We panted breathlessly as we slowly disengaged. He dropped me down on my feet and I staggered back, unable to steady my wobbly feet. Caleb caught me and turned on the shower again, letting the warm water wash away the sweat, juices, and cum from our bodies. He swept me into his arms and carried me out of the bathroom. He wrapped a bathrobe around my body and then tied a towel around his waist. He dressed me up and led me into the bedroom before slipping into the dressing room to get dressed. When we were all dressed, we went into the kitchen to make breakfast together before leaving the house. It was fun spending time with him. For the first time, I saw something different about Caleb. I noticed to my dismay, that I was slowly getting addicted to that smirk of his. I wanted to see it every time he spun around to look at me or whenever he said something stupid. “What are you thinking about now, huh?” he muttered, pressing his body against mine from behind. I j

    ROSY Caleb was able to jerk the car to a stop before it fell into the pit. I gasped out in shock and swerved my head in his direction, wondering why he acted so rashly after I mentioned the birthmark. “What's wrong with you, Caleb?" I snapped. He cursed under his breath, ignoring my question as he slowly pulled the car back to the lane. “I'm sorry for losing control," he muttered, sighing loudly as he ignited the car and continued driving. "That isn't what we are talking about!” I snapped, narrowing my eyes as the thought of what he was hiding troubled my mind. "Who did you see the mark on?” He asked instead. I scoffed, glaring at him. "Is that all you have to say?” "I apologized already.” "I'm not talking about the accident, why don't you answer my question first!” I groaned out. "Answer mine first, then I will give you what you are looking for!” He snapped and I swallowed hard. Why the hell is he suddenly upset? I should be the one getting upset, not him! "Well… I can

    CALEB Rosy’s words reechoed in my head countlessly as I drove home. I wonder who she has seen the mark on. This is the only way we can find Mario’s origin. If I had told her the truth, would she have told me where she saw the mark? I knew she was lying to me when she told me that she couldn’t remember who had the mark. “Damn it, I forgot to ask for a description,” I muttered, slamming my fist into the steering wheel. I sighed, remembering how difficult Rosy could be. She wouldn’t tell me even if I asked. The memories of last night sipped into my mind, pushing the issue of the birthmark away. A smile formed on my face as it all replayed before me. I hope Rosy will give me a chance back into her life after this. “Thank you for helping me, Sherry, thank you,” I muttered as I drove into the garage. I was filled with excitement as I stepped out of my car. It felt like a new life was replaced with the disgusting, burden-filled life I had. Immediately I

    CALEB I saw a smirk sneak into Katherine’s face when my father said that. My brows furrowed in anger as I glared at him as well as every other person in the waiting room. “I won’t marry her,” I replied, and Father’s face hardened as he slowly tore me into shreds with his blazing eyes. “Then count yourself off from my family, return my company as well,” he rebuffed and Grandma gripped his hand, shaking her head in disagreement. “No, no, James it hasn’t gotten to that. You don’t have to worry yourself; Caleb will marry the girl,” Grandma pacified, and I parted my lips to disagree, but the look I got from Grandma shut me up. I sighed loudly, threw a murderous glare at Katherine, and walked away. I left the building in a daze and slumped into my car, drumming the wheel as my head dropped lazily. My phone rang and I glanced at the caller’s ID. I picked up my phone and accepted the call, placing the phone on my ear. “What do you want, Mario?” I asked. “Congra

    ROSY Caleb was taken aback when his eyes met mine. The question I threw at him put him in a greater shock. He cranked his head backward, glancing at Madam Helen before snapping his hostile eyes on me. “It is nothing,” he said in a brusque tone, then quickly slid away without sparing me a glance. I glared at Madam Helen, pursing my lips out indignantly. I was disappointed with her actions. After finding out about Caleb’s betrayal, she still considers him a friend. “What business does he have with you again?” I snapped. She raised her brows, shifting her eyes away from the glass of lemonade twirling in her hand. “It's none of your business,” she said without a care in the world. I scoffed loudly, wondering what had gotten into Madam Helen to make her act this way. “You have changed. A lot,” I muttered and she narrowed her eyes, unbothered about my observation. “What brought you here?” she asked, and my throat tightened as I searched for ways to turn Madam Helen’s he

    CALEB Staring at my reflection in the mirror reminded me of my previous wedding years ago. The expression on my face was the same as the one I had when I was getting married to Rosy. I was forced into marrying her just like I’m being forced into marrying this little witch. I swallowed hard and huffed out in anger, straightening a cuff that didn’t need the effort. “Whoa! Whoa! Look at that soon-to-be-married man,” Julius laughed, walking into my room. Casper and Kim trailed after him, grinning from ear to ear. I knew that the grin on their faces wasn’t that of happiness for me but mockery. They were all in dark tuxedos, which was the usual attire for the best men at a wedding. Casper’s raven hair was brushed back with some of the hair in the middle sticking out. I do wonder if he looked at the hair in the mirror before stepping out. Kim’s dark hair was gelled into a style as always, and Julius’s curly bangs, which swept across his shoulder, glimmered lustrou

    With a smile on my radiant face, I watched the kids run around the field aimlessly. I shuddered slightly when I felt wet lips touch my bare neck. I didn't need to turn around to find out who the person was, the scent of his cologne gave him away. “You came here to clear your mind during the holiday, not babysit seven-year-old kids.” He muttered and I chuckled lightly. “I just need to make sure that they're okay,” I replied and he scoffed, wrapping his hands around my shoulders. “Come on, nothing bad is going to happen to them, let's go in,” he nudged. I glanced at our three kids and then back at Caleb's face. “Are you sure?” I muttered and he threw his head back, groaning loudly. “I will be blamed if anything happens,” he said confidently. I turned up my lips and finally relented. Caleb smiled and took my hand, pulling my body against his as he brushed his lips against mine. “Don't try to act weak; what you did years ago still amazes me,” he muttered, and I giggled.

    ROSY I took the elevator back to the penthouse, my heartbeat increasing with each step I took from the elevator to the door. I pushed the door open and stepped into the living room. The smell of liquor hit my nose immediately when I stepped in. I turned up my lips in disgust and glanced around the room for him. “Evan?” I called out. My stomach churned when I saw him spin a swivel chair around, his hand holding onto a bottle of liquor. “There you are! I thought you wouldn't show up,” he laughed and got up from the chair. “What do you want?” I snapped, sending a murderous glare at him. He raised his brows in surprise and laughed like a lunatic, waving the bottle of liquor at me. He became quiet and tilted his head in my direction. “All my life, there's only one thing that I have ever wanted.” He gulped a reasonable amount of liquor then shook his finger at me. “You.” My heart shrank and my blood boiled. “Sorry to disappoint you,” I muttered and raised my hand

    ROSY "Hello, little red rose, miss me?" The phone dropped from my hand and my heart constricted as I staggered back and panted for air. The excitement in the hall vanished and everyone stared at me in shock. Caleb flinched back at my behavior and stared questioningly at me, but when he realized that I wouldn't give him an answer, he bent down and picked up the phone. It isn't true, is it? That isn't who I thought it was, right? Could it be that Katherine was right? No, no, it can't be. My belly knotted when I saw Caleb's face turn grave. His lips trembled as he forced a name out of his mouth. “Evan?” I felt my heart stop beating and my eyes rolled up. Caleb looked at me, his hand tightening around the phone. He's back! He fucking came back! “Evan?” Mom gasped and murmurs filled the hall. Everyone who knew Evan had a grave look of dismay on their faces. The once joyful atmosphere turned sober and tense at the mention of that terrible and monstrous name. My b

    CALEB The large doors pulled open and the sharp rays of sunlight pierced into my eyes. I squinted my eyes, adjusted to the stream of light oozing into the filled-up church, and then looked at the glorious sight some distance before me. She looked angelic; she looked perfect, like a heavenly being. The spotless white dress she wore flowed lazily on the white marble floor as she walked slowly toward me. Her veiled face looked ahead, causing a turbulent feeling in the pit of my belly. The flower she held was Sherry's favorite flower, the blue flower. "Miracle", like Sherry always called it. The rays from the sun surrounded her, making her look like an angel gloriously descending to the earth. Each she took towards me made my heart leap. It felt like I would have a heart attack before she got to me. Everyone's head was turned as hundreds of eyes trailed after her to the altar. I batted my lashes in disbelief when I saw her standing before me, a heart-warming smile on her

    CALEB I ran my hands through my disheveled hair as I paced around the waiting room, filled with anxiety. “Calm down, Caleb, calm down,” mom complained, sighing loudly. The door burst open and I spun around, glaring at Mario's pale face. “She has been arrested," Mario said and I grunted in dissatisfaction. “I will sneak into that prison and kill her myself if anything happens to Rosy.” My mom jerked her head in my direction, glaring at me. “You won't do anything like that! And nothing is going to happen to Rosy!” She snapped and I narrowed my eyes, slumping dejectedly into the chair beside me. It was all my fault. If I had gotten there a bit earlier, if I had run up to the balcony instead, she wouldn't have fallen off. She wouldn't be in this critical condition. I'm so sorry that I couldn't save you, I'm such a disappointment,” I muttered, sighing in regret. Perhaps, if I had handled Katherine properly, she wouldn't have shown her face here again. My heart skipped

    ROSYThe revolver being pointed at me didn't faze me, the face of the woman standing before me was what kept me stunned. “You seem shocked,” she chuckled and advanced towards me. I gasped out and staggered back, holding onto the railings behind me. “Katherine? What the hell are you doing here?” I snapped, glaring confusedly at her. My eyes darted down to her flat belly and my eyes dimmed. Isn't she supposed to be supposed to be pregnant? “What happened to your baby?” She scoffed at my question in disbelief, narrowing her blazing eyes at me. “Well… I killed it,” she muttered and my eyes widened in dismay. “You did what?” I snapped, pursing my lips in anger. She smirked and lowered the gun then tilted her head to the side. “Why? Is it because you're unable to get pregnant again?” Her snide words pricked my heart, making my blood boil. “Does it hurt to watch a child that should have been yours die? Hmmm… I can tell how you feel at the moment. If only God had given me the

    ROSY It's been three months since Evan’s escape from prison, three months of peace and curiosity. My curiosity was only satisfied when his body was found floating on water a week ago. Though his face was badly injured and unrecognizable, his body and the mark proved that it was him. Now, I'm full of peace and happiness, not only concerning Evan's death but also my upcoming wedding day. “There you are!” Juliet shrieked as she barged into my office, pulling me out of my reverie. I stretched my lips into a smile and blinked tiredly. “Don't tell me you're already tired from the shopping; the wedding is in a few days, so you better be ready,” she snapped, and I nodded my head. “Yes, ma'am.” She chuckled and dropped a large bag on my desk. “I'm sorry that I couldn't make it to the pre-wedding party, my schedule is so tight that I can hardly eat,” she muttered, breathing out loudly. “Well… that's the price you have to pay for being one of the most famous models in the country,” I

    MARIO "Welcome sir!" the pygmy secretary grinned widely as she led me to my father's office. "Mr Morris has been waiting for you," she muttered, cunningly trying to start up a conversation. "The party lasted longer than I expected," I threw a flat reply. But the girl refused to give up, she tugged on my arm and forced me to look down at her. "Is it true that Miss Rosy and Caleb Thompson are engaged? I saw it on a social page." "Hmmm, it's true," I responded and quickened my pace. I got to the closed door, sucked in a deep breath before pushing it open. My dad raised his head and forced a smile into his face when he saw me enter the room. "I am sorry that I kept you waiting," I muttered and walked to the couch then slumped into it, waiting for him to tell me the reason for his sudden invitation. "I heard that they are engaged," he muttered, and I nodded, narrowing my eyes in suspicion. Does whatever he has to say have anything to do with Caleb and Rosy? "I just couldn't hol

    CALEB When I saw her face, I couldn’t help but admire what a beauty she was. Her blue velvet gown flowed behind her as she stepped down from the spiral staircase accompanied by Juliet.From her lustrous curly hair cascading to her spotless shoulders to her angelic face, down to her flawless thigh which the split on the gown revealed. The dress she wore hugged closely to her body, proudly showing off her curves. I chuckled lightly and smiled at her which she returned immediately. I couldn’t wait to hold her in his arms once more, and this time, I had planned never to let her slip out my fingers again. “Happy birthday!!” We all cheered, raising our glasses in the air. She laughed and raised her glass too, her eyes pinned on me and mine on her.It was like we were sending a silent message across to each other. Everyone was present, including her rebellious family members. I was surprised that they didn’t try to kick her out when they found out about the stolen funds. That was a pe
