His Elusive Antidote (English) Thirty Nine
“Love, close your eyes, I have something for you,” I chuckled, this man will always be full of surprises, it’s like he always has something new he wants to do in his life, and I’m always the one he’s teasing. “Why again? Last time I closed my eyes, you put hot sauce on my nose.” I replied, it’s true, my nose turned all red, and instead of helping me, he just laughed at me, he even sang Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer, I ain’t talking to him. “You’re one to talk, the last time I closed my eyes, you left me! And you had my wallet and phone! I almost couldn’t get home!” I burst out laughing, you’d think he was about to cry, he was so upset back then, I laughed so hard, I got my revenge on him. “Come on, close your eyes.” I gave him a stern look before finally closing my eyes. I suddenly felt a cold metal thing on my neck. “Okay, open your eyes now.” So I did, I immediately grabbed what he put on me, it’s a gold necklace with a green something as the pendant. “What’s this for?” Is there

I woke up feeling heavy, what happened? It felt like I was in a movie when I woke up, white walls, white room, white everything, there’s a purifier beside my bed, what am I doing here again? I felt the IV attached to me, that’s why I felt a bit itchy and painful. The door opened, a doctor with a nurse beside him came in, the nurse approached me and smiled, “Just checking your vitals, ma’am.” I nodded, still confused. “Doc, I’m okay.” “Good evening Mrs. Vanth.” My heart jumped for a while. “You do not need to worry, it’s very normal, you have to take care of yourself though, I’ll be prescribing vitamins for you.” I was confused by what he was saying. As far as I remember, I’m not sick. Are those vitamins for stress? “Wait doc, I’m not sick, and why are you calling me Mrs. Vanth? I’m not married, well, yet.” Who knows, maybe my ugly one will propose to me. I saw how confused he is, “Oh, I’m sorry, your friend brought you here early this afternoon, and based on your record, you are,”

I felt the vibration of my phone so I opened my bag to look for it. It was Jc calling. I realized I hadn’t called him since I woke up, even though I’ve eaten and everything, I didn’t even inform Lukret. “Hel-” he immediately interrupted me. “Hey! Are you okay? Why aren’t you at the hospital? Did your husband take you? Hihi!” he teased, so I frowned. He’s crazy, as always. “You’re crazy! What did you say about me having a husband? I don’t even have a ring yet, and I’m already a wife? Are you jumping ahead?” I heard him chuckle. If he were here right now, I would have punched him. How annoying. “You’re pretending! I bet you’re thrilled, right?” he teased me more. I wanted to strangle him. “I’ll slap you, Jc. And what will you bet? You don’t even have a… you know.” I laughed as he shouted on the other line. “You’re so rude! Shut up! Get lost! Get lost!” he shouted, and I ended the call. I was happy to annoy him again. It’s funny to irritate him; I can imagine his face. He’s been m

I woke up because my phone kept ringing on the side table. I looked at Jaxon’s spot, but he wasn’t there. Where is that man going at five in the morning? Hays. I rolled over and groped for my phone. It was Jc again, ugh! This human being! He’s so annoying! “What?” I answered grumpily. I really can’t control my mood these past few days, I get triggered so easily. “You’re such a bitch, you know that? We’re coming to your house! I brought fruits for my godchild!” I suddenly laughed at that. “Where are you now? Did you get rained on? Which house are we going to?” This guy is really crazy. “You’re crazy. We’re at Jaxon’s condo. Tell me when you’re here, I’ll come out.” I couldn’t tell him why he couldn’t come in right away. Two weeks after I told Jaxon about my pregnancy, I thought he wouldn’t accept it and would just disappear like a bubble, but his response was way too opposite from what I was expecting. He called his mom, his grandparents, even his friends. He paced around the room

“Ay wow, no wonder she’s not answering calls, because the theme of the night is Sleeping Beauty,” I woke up to the irritating voice of my gay friend. “Hey, don’t be loud, she’s an angel when she’s asleep,” I heard Jaxon’s voice, “But a dragon when she wakes up, she’ll breathe fire on you.” And he laughed, he’s really crazy. “Ugh, really? Okay, I’ll stay in the kitchen, I might get scolded, I just had a facial, it cost five thousand,” my gay friend replied, then I heard some faint steps moving away from my spot. I slowly opened my eyes, adjusting to the sunlight. What time is it? I looked at the alarm clock on the side table, 10:30. I haven’t slept much yet, I haven’t even brushed my teeth. I immediately felt like my stomach was churning, I quickly got up and went to the bathroom. I felt like nothing else would come out, but I was still vomiting. In just a second, there was a warm hand on my back. “I’m sorry, love. You have to get through this,” Jaxon kept saying that while I was

\ “Wow,” Jaxon greeted me as I left his room. It was past six in the evening when I finished getting ready. “As always, beautiful.” “Thanks,” I muttered and kissed him. We agreed to leave in an hour for the trip, as we might encounter traffic, and it would be embarrassing to be late for that party. Uncle Robert kept asking where I was, but I couldn’t reply because I was also getting ready. I only checked what Jaxon bought for me now, and I’m glad he made the right choice of dress. I’m now wearing a black long backless gown with pearls embroidered from my neckline down to my waist. He also bought me a pair of white stilettos with a touch of gold and a gold purse. It was a simple yet elegant attire, and I can’t argue with the fact that I love it. It’s comfortable to wear, and it doesn’t squeeze my stomach, so I can breathe properly. He guided me into his car, adjusted my seatbelt. He is the sweetest, but he looked tired. It did not, however, lessen how handsome he is tonight. He wa

“I’ll give it to you later, you’re so excited. Open this first,” he said, pointing to his table full of large gifts. “Their gifts look more beautiful and rich compared to mine. It’s embarrassing.” “I don’t want that! I want you! Come on, give it to me!” he insisted, so I flicked his forehead and pushed him away with my finger. “Ouch, wait, I’ll show you something cool, look at this.” He said and lifted the suit he was wearing, revealing his tattoo, a butterfly tattoo. “Isn’t the butterfly your favorite? There, because I love you, I got this, be proud.” I nodded, “It’s beautiful, but,” I flicked him again, he’s trying to make excuses! “I told you no tattoos! You’re making excuses, I’ll punch you in the head!” “I’m already old! Look, I even have a crush on you, just be my girlfriend already.” He said, so I just laughed. He’s been saying that since he was a kid, very persistent, very flirtatious. “Sorry to burst your bubble, but she has a boyfriend.” My laughter subsided when I heard
His Elusive Antidote (English) Forty Six
“Where do you want to eat, love?” We were currently in Jaxon’s car, coming from the hospital. I’m four months pregnant, and as time goes by, it’s getting harder. There have been many changes in my habits, moods, cravings, and my stomach is starting to show, which is the most noticeable change of all. “Hmm, maybe nowhere.” He kept looking at me as if he didn’t believe what I was saying, well, because I’m always hungry, I want to eat all sorts of things, but I’m not gaining too much weight since every morning, we always go for a walk for at least thirty minutes, and sometimes I accompany him to the gym, where I just use the treadmill. I’m not as easily out of breath now. We’re planning to take Mama out here, but knowing the danger it may cause them, I’m hesitant, even though I really want them to come because I want to know the things I should do, and it’s different when your mom takes care of you and assists you. “Are you sure? Really nothing? Maybe later you’ll ask me to buy someth

The wooden sign above the entrance creaked in the wind, its paint chipped and faded, a testament to the café's long history.As Emily assessed the extent of the damage, she couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by the task ahead. Tables and chairs lay scattered across the sand, while shards of broken glass littered the floor of the café's outdoor seating area. The awning had been torn off its hinges, leaving the once-cozy space exposed to the elements.Just as Emily was about to roll up her sleeves and get to work, she heard footsteps approaching from behind. Turning around, she was surprised to see Jack standing there, a concerned expression on his face."Hey, Emily," Jack said, his voice gentle but filled with urgency. "I heard abo

Catherine stumbled into the condo, her vision blurred from the tears that streamed down her face. Sin stood in front of her, his expression unreadable. Outside, the rain poured down in a relentless torrent, the sound of it drumming against the windows like a thousand tiny fingers. The sky was a dark, brooding mass of clouds, obscuring the moon and stars from view. The air was thick with moisture, the humidity making it feel like a sauna. The condo was a small, cozy space, with soft, dim lighting that cast a warm glow over the room. The walls were painted a soothing shade of blue, adorned with framed photographs of happier times. A plush couch sat in the center of the living room, facing a small television set. The floor was covered with a plush rug, soft underfoot.“Please, Catherine, you need to leave,” Sin pleaded, his voice tinged with frustration.Catherine shook her head, her voice trembling. “No, not until you tell me why. Why were you avoiding me all these years?” Catherine sto

But just as he reached for the doorknob, his mother’s voice echoed through the hallway.“Sin! Can you come here for a moment?”He froze, knowing that tone all too well. With a resigned sigh, he turned around and headed towards the living room where his mother and brothers were gathered. As he entered the room, he saw Catherine, his ten-year-old sister, sitting on the floor surrounded by coloring books and crayons.“What’s up?” Sin asked, trying to sound casual.“We’re having a bonding moment with Cath,” his mother said, gesturing towards the coloring materials. “We thought it would be nice for you to join us.”Sin glanced at Catherine, who looked up at him with big, hopeful eyes.
