KIA

Although being Ares' wife was nice, I was oblivious to the true meaning of marriage outside of our shared love and commitment. I had such bad feelings. What were our roles? What exactly does "being a wife" logically mean? Then it hit me: being a wife can be anything I want it to be.

Something about the institution's conventions was giving me trouble, but I knew Ares and I would decide on our marriage as we went through life together. Are we going to open a joint checking account? purchase a home? adopt an infant? But our relationship has only lasted two years. It's too late now; four months have gone by.

This night, over chicken adobo, I paused from eating, put my spoon and fork down, and looked at him across the table.

“You know, this is absolutely lovely, but you don’t have to do this every time,” I said. “It’s not something I’d ever expect. I can always heat up a frozen pizza or cook for us too.”

“What do you mean?” he asked curiously.

“Don’t you see? You are always the one who

    KIAI made sure to wake up early to prepare lunch for Ares. I’m still a bit nervous, but I think I can do it. I just hope that he will like the taste of the meal that I will cook for him. I went to the kitchen, and the first thing I did was wash my hands. I decided to cook my favorite meal for today’s lunch. I grabbed my phone and played “Sometimes by Britney Spears” and started cooking. While the aroma of the food being cooked kept my nose engrossed. When I finished cooking, I cleaned the lunchbox and set it on the table. First I prepared fried rice, and then when the oven beeped, a sign that roasted chicken was cooked. I brought it out and started slicing it. The rice was well cooked but wasn't too oily, and the chicken was roasted brown, a bit overdone, just the way I preferred. I prepare the meal in the lunch box. Both looked delicious. I hadn’t eaten anything this morning, so without wasting any more time, I took some rice and grabbed a large chicken drumstick on my plate. I to

    KIA Ares has already finished his meal. His colleague, Kyle, went outside for a moment to answer calls. I am still here, sitting on the couch, awaiting the end of lunch. When the clock turned to 1:00 p.m. I immediately stood up and started cleaning everything at the table. “You are going home now?” Ares asked while helping me.“Yeah. Your lunchtime has already ended, so you need to work. I can’t bother you here since this is a workplace,” I answered.“No, hon, it’s fine. I am not that busy today since our boss isn’t here, so you can stay and we can go home together.” He suggested, but I immediately refused.I know that they can’t work properly if I stay here. I know Kyle has been a bit off since I came here and I know Ares noticed that too. Maybe he isn’t comfortable having me around. “It’s fine, hon. I will wait for you at home.” He didn't argue with me; instead, he quietly walked with me to the ground floor. A different elevator was used. The elevator is conveniently located insi

    Her eyes gradually opened. This morning, she didn't experience the typical harsh jolt that shakes her out of her sleep. It seemed more like Mother's soft voice was gently lulling her to wakefulness while gently enticing her. Her sleepy brain slowly realized that the room was still dark. The dark blue shadows of the waning night lingered around the folds of the curtains. There was that tinge of gathering light that made the darkness somehow comfortable and cozy. She rolled over and let out a lazy yawn. It was too early to get up. She lay there, unwilling to think back on the agony of the previous night and content to simply savor the peaceful moments of sleep before the sun awoke the rest of the world and ordered everyone to resume their hectic schedules. She then realized Ares wasn't lying next to her. She made the decision to walk into the living room to check, but to her surprise, Ares wasn't anywhere to be seen.Kianna asked herself, "Did he go to work so early?”She noticed a meal

    The madam of the villa immediately avoided eye contact. “Humph! You still got the nerve to ask that. Your dad almost felt ill because of anger. It’s been a long time since I saw him so angry. Anyway, make sure to speak nicely when you see him later. And don’t even think about starting a quarrel with him.” Mr. Buenavista changed everything in Ares’ life since his dad died of sickness. He is the best thing that ever happened to him. Without Mr. Buenavista, he would be going nowhere in his life. His life was starting to go down the drain before Mr. Buenavista came into their family. Mr. Buenavista has and always will be a role model in Ares’ life and a goal to strive for. Mr. Buenavista has done many things to help mold him into the man he is today. “I got it, mom. I know what I am doing.” Ares said, trying to calm his mom. They slowly opened the door and headed to the living room. A man holding a newspaper is comfortably seated on the sofa.

    KIAThe rustling of leaves calmed my nerves as I lay with my eyes closed on the leather couch. Even the occasional thunder strike didn’t frighten me. I could hear a trickle of rain beginning to calm me even further. Moreover, I was looking forward to the weekend; the sunshine was about to begin. "Ares is busy at his work again…" I mumbled as I lay face down on the couch.I need to kill my boredom. There is an amusement park a couple of miles from here. It is called the Enchanted Kingdom. That amusement park is quite popular here in the Philippines. The Enchanted Kingdom, often abbreviated as EK, is a theme park in the Philippines. It is located in Santa Rosa, Laguna, about 39 kilometers from Manila. It has a land area of 25 hectares. Which makes it more exciting since there are so many rides to enjoy.

  • His Untold Lies   Chapter 43 Hospital

    KIAI feel heavy. How long did I… sleep? The fragrance of hospital disinfectant invaded my nose as I awoke. The bleach stench was overpowering. The brilliant light that was peeking through my closed eyelids caused me to squint. I felt heavy and helpless. My head, my body, and my hands were all immobile. Aside from my loud breathing and the beep beep sound you frequently hear in hospitals to let you know you're alive, the room was completely silent. I gently opened my eyes, squinting to try to make the hazy sights in front of me more clear. I cast a quick glance around and noticed the empty hospital room with its blue and white decor.Where am I? As the blinding light slowly subsided, I could take a look around my surroundings. I was at the hospital. The space was spotless, tidy, and dismal. A typical hospital bed, an IV, and beeping monitors. The linens were grayish, and the walls were a sickening shade of green. Nothing in the setting suggested that a patient would be inspired to i

But since the result shows negative of any serious problem, they will let her discharge this afternoon. The company is having a busy day today since we are doing a collaboration with other big companies. I spent my day reading, revising documents, and giving my approval. There are still two documents that I need to start reading. When I look at my watch, it’s already 3:40 p.m. Kianna will be discharged from the hospital at exactly 4 p.m. I need to hurry so that I can go pick Kianna up from the hospital.I immediately start doing it and give my full attention to all the documents that are on my table.

    Ares is headed home. He is kind of in a hurry to get home because he is worried about his wife. He was speeding, and when he arrived, he immediately went inside and turned on the lights.“Hon, I’m back—” Ares saw his wife sleeping on the couch. “Sillygirl... She does not worry about catching a cold,” Ares said, and he removed his coat to make it a blanket for Kianna. He gave her a kiss before heading to the bathroom. While Ares is taking a bathroom break, Kianna suddenly wakes up to the sound of water dripping. She slowly opened her eyes and observed her environment. …There is the sound of someone taking a bath in the bathroom. Is Ares back?....“Hon— Oh, what is this? — Eh? A coat?” Kianna grabbed the coat and a smile slowly flash on her face.…He is worried that I will catch a cold…Kianna hugged the coat and smelled it.

He was measuring me for the wedding gown I would wear at our wedding. After the measurement, I went with Miaree and Marcy to shop for a dress that we could wear for the celebration after the wedding."Look, Kia! Green seems to suit you better. Something that suits your complexion." Marcy said, while holding a simple green dress."You know what, I agree with what you said. Actually, I would really choose green and pink to be the themes for all of us. What if we made all the dresses green? And let's make the wedding nature theme. A simple nature wedding?” I was just thinking about it as if my eyes were shining with the idea.* ringing * ringing * ringing *I immediately took my phone out of my pocket.

We might lose this partnership if you won’t be able to meet Mr. Guevarra…” Ares narrowed his eyes as he looked back in Kianna’s direction. She was walking away.

    KIAThe chilly breeze was blowing across my skin, and I could feel it. I am currently standing in front of the enormous villa that I checked out the previous time I was here. In the event that I am unable to obtain a response from Ares, I will approach his parents in an effort to acquire the information that I require.After entering the grounds of the villa, I discovered that I had a significant distance to travel before I could really enter the structure. As I made my way toward the villa, a variety of conflicting feelings began to arise within me. It was difficult for me to determine whether my emotions were those of agitation, disappointment, or nervousness. As I arrived, I was all of a sudden overcome with uncertainty regarding whether or not I should forward with my plan. I couldn't see anyone at the front door, so I decided to walk in through the back entrance instead. However, when I got there, no one was present.Maybe I should go back the next time—"Kianna?"My attention wa

    KIA"Kianna, your spouse is the one who has been making you look foolish for the better part of a year now. It's not me." Nathan reached out and attempted to shake my hand, but I pushed him away. I went back and watched the portion of the video where the MC introduced Ares as the new CEO of the Vueravista corporation. It took me a few viewings, but in the end, I was convinced that what I was seeing was in fact happening. Throughout this entire period, he had been functioning in the capacity of an assistant. Even more amazingly, he permitted me to reside in his modest home. I knew him to be a straightforward individual who led a straightforward life, and as time went on, I learned to admire and even admire that quality in him. However, once it is discovered that everything was a fabrication, everything will come crashing down around them. Does this imply that the individuals who he claimed to be his parents when we first met are not, in fact, his biological parents but rather merely p

    KIA"Do you still remember who I am, Myst?" Nathan expressed his curiosity.I was taken aback, and I found that I was unable to think clearly as a consequence. Because so much time has passed since then, this is the first opportunity I've had to give careful consideration to the matter. He is absolutely correct. On that same evening, I was spending time with him before I ended u meeting with Ares."I—I really don't know what to say... But I do recall that we had a chance encounter that night. — But why didn't you inform me? Why did you keep it all these time and pretend like you didn't know who I was?" I inquired with a sense of curiosity.He let out a long sigh and then looked at me directly in the eyes. We saw another extended period of stillness between one another. I focused my eyes inward as I waited expectantly for him to provide me with some responses. I was unable to come up with any explanations for why he hid this information from me. Is it the reason why he assisted me the

    He purchased an additional bottle of Carlo Rossi California Red and gave some of it to me to drink. I was extremely drunk at that moment, but because he had already handed me a glass of wine, there was nothing I could do except accept it. I couldn't deny it because it was already in my hands. As he began to recount his narrative, I raised my glass to my mouth and took a sip."Have you ever questioned whether or not you are someone who is deserving of love?" He inquired.It appears like this guy is brokenhearted like me. I felt so awful for him. I was almost ready to respond to his question when all of a sudden, he began talking again."Because I did. It all started with my parents, and now it involves a girl whom I've put my faith in for many years... You're probably aware of this, but it's terrible. Never had the opportunity to be raised by caring parents who would accept me for who I am and love me unconditionally...""Don't you have parents?" Curiosity got the better of me, and I a

    KIAAs he resumed his remarks while walking toward the bookcase, he added, "I was right all along..." He then finished his statement after reaching the bookcase. "Because I had just recently run into you at the Shangri-La hotel the same night, the news that you had unexpectedly gotten married put a wrench into things. I had no idea that you were already married when I ran into you there. Do you have any recollection of our previous encounter? I was the one who was there with you, Kianna, when you were sobbing uncontrollably and consuming a whole bottle of wine at the same time."I am only able to stand there and watch with my eyes wide open, unable to close them, as though the entire world were crumbling and falling apart around me...

    KIA "He is a strong and capable man, Kianna! more powerful than you may have imagined." The phrase that has been running through my head since after Vince said that to me; I just can't seem to get rid of it. It has been going over and over in my thoughts till this very moment. Even though I have a lot of other things to think about, I can't stop thinking about it despite the fact that I have a lot of other things to think about. I have probably been gazing out the window for the better part of an hour at this point. The mere presence of this concept is causing me to start overanalyzing everything once more. It is still up to me to get started managing the initiatives that the organization needs to complete.I gave myself a mental shake and shook my head as I attempted to stop thinking about it.
