"What? To your apartment? What do you want?" Nina asked panicked, she spontaneously covered her chest with both hands like a potential abuse victim.
Aiden looked confused, didn't understand this woman's way of thinking at all, or it was Aiden's question that made her misunderstand.
"What are you thinking?"
"What are you thinking? You're the one who suddenly invited me to your apartment in the rain! You must be looking for a chance, right?"
"What chance? You really-"
"You want some warmth, right? Pretending to help me when you want me to sway with you!"
"Swaying? Hey, you've been thinking too far! After all, you were the one begging for a ride with me, at first I didn't mean to help you, you remember that!"
"So what do you want me to do to your apartment?"
"Your clothes are wet and you can see for yourself, it's traffic jam right now. If we turn around, my apartment isn't far from here. I can lend you some dry clothes!"
"I-is that so?" She said so plain. It made Aiden feel like throwing up.
After this pointless debate, Aiden finally turned around and returned to his apartment which was actually opposite the bus stop.
When Aiden's car reached the apartment parking lot, it was Nina who got out of the car bent over and looked around in amazement, just like a tramp who was picked up to be the young master's playmate.
"You live in an apartment this big? You must be very rich!"
"No need to praise me, let's go quickly!"
"Okay!"
Aiden had expected something like this to happen, when he brought a woman into his apartment, surely suspicious gazes would continue to make him an object to talk about.
Aiden really doesn't like this, though people don't know what's really going on, but they're bound to come to their own conclusions. Especially when in the elevator, two female students who saw Aiden enter with a woman immediately whispered and it was certain, they were both sources of gossip that would circulate in a few moments.
"Okay, you wait here a moment! I'll get a t-shirt that you can wear!" Aiden said who told Nina to remain standing in front of his apartment door.
"You didn't tell me to come in?"
"Why should I tell you to come in? You stay here!"
"Yeah, don't take too long!"
Aiden entered his apartment and immediately closed the door as tightly as possible so that Nina could not enter. I don't know what this 25-year-old young man is hiding, to the point that he doesn't let anyone set foot into his house.
"What kind of man is he? Leaving a beautiful woman waiting outside! Uhm... how suspicious. He must be hiding something really embarrassing or maybe-" She thought.
About three minutes later, Aiden came out with a white short-sleeved T-shirt.
"Just use this!" He said as he handed her his dry clothes.
Nina accepted it happily, but there was one thing that was bothering her. How was she supposed to change clothes in a place like this?
"So, where do I change clothes?"
"Yes, anywhere is up to you!"
"Hey, let me borrow your toilet for a second! I want to pee and change clothes!"
"Just use the public toilet over there!"
"I can't stand it anymore, let me use it for a while! Come on!"
"No! No! No! Not at all!"
"What a shame you are! Don't you feel sorry for me? I'm just borrowing it for a while, what's wrong with that?"
"Is it too much to say? I was about to lend you some clothes, you should thank me!"
"Yes, thank you, Sir! Quickly, lend me the toilet, I beg you!"
"Use the building's toilet, it's over there!"
"I can't take it anymore! Come on!"
"You are-"
"Your zipper is open!"
"Huh? What?" Aiden immediately let go of the door handle and focused on the zipper of his pants.
Nina who got the chance, went straight in when Aiden was off guard. This woman ran to find the location of the toilet in this quite large apartment.
"Hey, you bastard! How dare you!" Aiden shouted, running after Nina.
Aiden was scared, he didn't want Nina to go into his toilet because there was a secret he was hiding. But too late, Nina managed to find a toilet not far from the kitchen and used it.
"Ugh... relieved, finally-" She muttered under her breath after she managed to get her urine out.
"Hey, when you're done, hurry out! Flush clean!" Aiden shouted as he banged on his toilet door.
"Yeah, okey! Uh, what's this?" Nina found things like plush dolls that people called 'squishy' neatly arranged on the toilet shelf.
"Why would he keep things like this in the toilet? Uhm... so interesting!" She mumbled with a sly smile.
Nina took her phone and immediately took a photo of a collection of squishy with a toilet background. After changing her wet clothes with Aiden's t-shirt which was definitely too big for her body, Nina came out while covering her exposed thighs because the t-shirt wasn't long enough.
"What took so long? You didn't check my closet, did you?"
"No, don't worry! By the way, lend me your towel for a second, I want to use your washing machine to dry my clothes!"
"You just take it home, you can return it anytime. The important thing is that you go home right now!"
"How do I go home looking like this? Besides-"
"Besides what?"
"Besides, my panties are wet too, so-"
"So, you want to borrow my panties too?"
"No way! I mean, let me borrow your washing machine for a while to dry my clothes, then I'll be going!"
"Yeah, it's over there! I'm warning you, don't hang around my house! Just watch out if you act up again!"
"Yes, I understand!" Nina went into the laundry room and dried her clothes.
Meanwhile, Aiden who was annoyed, continued to grumble. But even so, he still made hot tea for the world's most annoying guest.
"She's so troublesome, she just wants to trouble me like this! I shouldn't have brought her with me!" He muttered.
Aiden served hot darjeeling tea and placed it on the dining table. Nina who was waiting for her clothes to be dried, went straight to Aiden who was standing by the dining table and looked at her annoyed.
"Don't look at me like that! Sorry for bothering you and thanks for the help!"
"Never mind! Here, have some tea!"
"Thank you for making me a cup of tea!" She said as she pulled up a chair and sat down comfortably.
"I really wanted to drink tea, so I might as well make it!"
"So delicious, this is darjeeling, right?"
"Yes!"
"You must have brewed the tea leaves straight away, right? It's delicious."
"You like tea too?"
"Yes, I love it. My favorite tea is earl gray and ceylon, how about you?"
"Darjeeling."
"You like coffee?"
"Yes, but I prefer tea and milk too."
"Milk?"
"Agh no, it's not like that! I mean-"
"Why are you scared like that? What's wrong with liking milk? I like it too!" Nina smiled gently, a very sincere smile.
Aiden found it strange, for him this woman was very troublesome and annoying. However, seeing her smile and the way she spoke made Aiden feel that she wasn't a bad girl.
Meow...
A British Shorthair entered the kitchen and immediately rubbed his head against Aiden's feet.
"Squishy, are you awake?" Aiden asked in a cute voice.
"What? His name is Squishy?"
"N-no, I mean-" Aiden stuttered, his face reddened with embarrassment because his one secret was found out by others.
"Squishy? Your cat's name is Squishy? Hahahaha... so cute! Hahaha..." Nina burst out laughing hearing Aiden's cute style when he called his cat. Not to mention remembering the squishys neatly lined up in the toilet cupboard, making Nina laugh even harder.
Aiden was silent, it felt very stupid and annoying. When you help someone who will end up laughing at your secret.
"Should I just kill her?"
***"Okay, thanks for your help today. I was really helped, excuse me!" Nina said who was ready to leave Aiden's house, something Aiden had been waiting for since 60 minutes ago."Yes, go home!" Aiden who had been waiting for it so much, smiled and opened the door to his house, letting go of the most troublesome guest in the world.Nina who had only taken a few steps, stopped just as Aiden was about to close the door again."W-wait!""What else?""Uhm...that, where is the nearest stop?""In front of the building, you immediately turn right and walk about 100 meters""Apparently it is far?""So, why? You want to be driven home?""Hahaha..." Nina laughed awkwardly. An onslaught of pleading gazes began to appear before Aiden's eyes.Aiden really hates this, whenever someone tries to seduce him using this method, Aiden will not be able to resist."No! You go home alone!""B-but it's late and it's still drizzling outside, don't you feel sorry for me?""Why should I pity you? You just used me f
The chubby young man walked slowly down the steps of the bus he was riding to school. From the bus stop, he had to walk 200 meters to get to the school building. "Hey, hurry up!" Shouted a young man standing behind him. Because it was quite difficult for him to balance every time he had to go down the stairs, it made him have to be careful not to fall. After his feet hit the floor, the young man who had shouted earlier was finally able to pass with an angry face. Bruuugg... Deliberately, he bumped his shoulder against the chubby teenager's body. "You fat pig!" He cursed sarcastically. Whether it's because he's used to it or what, he doesn't really care about people's ridicule of his body shape. Instead of making a fuss, he prefers to be silent and succumb. "Good morning, Aiden?" A pretty girl call him and walking behind him. "Emily, g-good morning?" Seeing this girl's sweet smile, Aiden felt that today would be better than yesterday. Tall, slim, beautiful with light brown hai
The woman smiled and her smile made Aiden remember the wound again. The woman kept her phone while walking and stopped right in front of Aiden "Aiden, you've really changed, haven't you? Not like Aiden I used to know." "What was Aiden you used to know like?" "Cute, kind and very adorable. Now you look like someone else," "Yeah, let's just say that. See you later, I still have business!" He said as he walked past Emily. "Wait!" "What is it?" "You don't want to go with me?" "Do we have the same goal?" "Yeah, don't you know I just joined the same modeling agency as you?" "You? Really?" "From now on, we will meet often, so I don't think you have any reason to avoid me anymore, Aiden!" Emily smiled contentedly as if she was waving a war flag. "I'm not avoiding you, it seems you misunderstood!" "Not avoiding me? We met three years ago at the airport, but you pretended not to know me." Emily lifted her chin with her arms folded across her chest. Her body language that seemed ar
"Damn! That greedy woman really can't be allowed to! You've been helped, she doesn't even know herself. Just be careful, if I find her, I'll throw her into the sea!" Aiden grunted in annoyance. He has been angry ever since he found out that the story cover had been replaced with a hotter photo. Moreover, the girl also did not pick up the phone from him who had called her 66 times since yesterday until this afternoon. Aiden drove his car towards Nina's apartment which he already knew since dropping her home at that time. After arriving, Aiden was looking for a place to park his car. Aidenbm was waiting outside the apartment, just like a suspicious man. He wore a black hoodie and covered his head, and black glasses too. His pacing made passers-by stare at him suspiciously. "Where is she? Has she returned from college yet?" He thought while glancing at his watch, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. After 30 minutes of waiting, Aiden started to smell signs of the presence o
Aiden out of the bathroom wearing only a white towel that covered his hips to his knees, while his body and hair were still half wet. He looked in the mirror in front of him, staring at his reflection. Sometimes, he could hardly believe it, the figure he saw in the mirror was him. A very different figure from him 8 years ago. Drrrt... drrrt... Aiden phone rang, he immediately took his phone and opened the incoming message that Sasha had sent. "Good evening, Aiden. I've found the story we talked about yesterday. It's a great story," Sasha wrote in her message. Aiden gulped, he couldn't imagine that his colleague would read the novel too. "Haha...nice story, huh?" Aiden replied by adding a smile emoticon. Sasha returned his messages back, along with an incoming message from Stacy and this was what Aiden was most worried about. Stacy was very aggressive, without being provoked she always tried to seduce him with her body, especially when she also read the story. It must be ver
It's been 15 minutes since Aiden and Emily sat in the cafe, not a single topic of conversation popped into Aiden's head. It was awkward, that's how he felt. People say, men are creatures who can always open a chat to avoid an atmosphere like this. But Aiden different from most men. Closed and always comfortable with his solitude, although since becoming a model of such behavior has decreased a little, it still doesn't change many things in his life. "So, how are your mom and dad?" Finally, after 15 minutes of awkwardness, Aiden managed to find the first question that came to mind. "My dad is sick," "Really?" "Yes, my dad hasn't been doing much." "Your mom?" "My mom is good, Franz and Cecilia are also healthy." "Thank goodness. So, Anthony ? Are you still with him?" "No!" Emilys face turned sad, making Aiden think that something bad had happened to her. "No?" "Our engagement was called off, Anthony already has a new girlfriend." "Oh, I see ?" Aiden was silent f
Nina kept looking at Aiden who stood bowing before her. As she turned her head and looked around her, dozens of cameras snapped at her for the day's headlines. Nina was shocked, she didn't even get up even though the hands of several guards had reached out to help her up. "Miss, please stand up!" Said a man in a black suit who helped her get up. "T-thank you-" She smiled awkwardly, in front of her, Aiden tried to hold back the smile of victory over the misfortune that Nina was feeling right now. "Miss, come on in!" The man in the black suit guided her into the building so that the commotion would not escalate. Nina was asked to sit on the sofa, and even served fresh juice to reduce her nervousness. Seeing the cynical expressions of the two women standing in front of her made her realize that what she was experiencing was quite serious. "What's your name ?" Asked a middle-aged woman wearing a green blouse. "Karenina Christine Morales," She answered nervously. Moreover, see
"What? What did you say?" He asked. While Nina immediately knelt in front of him. "Mr. Aiden, please help me! Please...!" Nina pleaded while hugging his leg. "Hey...hey...stop this! It's so embarrassing!" "Please...please...!" "Never mind, stand up quickly! If anyone sees, they might misunderstand!" "Lend me some money...!" Nina screamed hysterically. Her sad face didn't make Aiden feel sorry, but it made him shiver. "Your face please condition! It's so scary." “Lend me some money, I beg you…!" "You shameless! Where is your pride?" "I don't care, the important thing is lend me some money...!" She said madly. Aiden froze in place, not expecting this woman's reaction to change in an instant. Where was the arrogance she had shown a few minutes ago? "You are really very sad, aren't you? Aren't you ashamed?" "Huhu...I don't want to go to jail!" "All right, that's it! stand up! I'll lend you some money!" "Is that true?" She said with a beaming face. Aiden swallowed h
Aiden was waiting in his car when he saw Nina walking towards her house with her two children. She laughed in front of her two children, holding their hands.Aiden decided to get out of his car and approached Nina while carrying some toys for Lucas and Lucy."Nina!""Aiden?""Can I come?""Yes, of course!"Nina was nervous because Aiden didn't seem to have completely given up like he said he would. Aiden gave the dolls and toys he bought to Lucas and Lucy."Thank you, Aiden. You don't have to bring toys every time you come! Now they are waiting for you to get new toys.""It's okay, Lucas is my son after all. I want to spend more time with him. How's Gavin? When is he coming home? I hope he doesn't kill me if he finds out I'm the one with you when he's not around.""Come on in, let's chat inside!""Ok!"Nina asked Aiden to come inside her house so they could talk. Nina was relieved because it seemed Aiden was starting to get used to her. She was glad they were back to being friends."H
Aiden stared at the window, he still couldn't forget what happened. During these two months, he had been sure that Nina would turn on him after what they had done. But in reality, he just had to accept the fact that all this time he already had a child.Cindy came into his room wearing a party dress because tonight they were going to have dinner with their family at a restaurant."Aiden, aren't you ready yet? We have to leave before dinner time!" Cindy said as she walked up to him."I'm sorry, but I don't want to go tonight. You can go alone!""You really want to part with me?" Cindy pretended to be tough, she didn't want to show Aiden that she didn't want separation."I can not go through this relationship anymore. This makes me so tormented.""Is being with me torture for you?""Cindy, I can't love you. I never could. You are my friend and nothing more than that I have feelings for you!""You know, Aiden? In the five years we've been together, I've always believed that a person's fe
Nina lay limp helplessly on the bed. The legs are still wide apart, it is very difficult to straighten them. Spots of sperm splattered on her face, body and genitals.This was the most tiring night of her life. Aiden was really crazy, he did it many times and never let Nina rest. He was truly avenging her just like he said.Aiden came out of the bathroom and came over to her who was lying on the bed. Aiden approached and smiled with satisfaction because he managed to give a painful torture."How does it feel?""You want to kill me?""Killing you is very easy, you know? I could have hired an assassin to eliminate you, but I don't think that would have caused you enough pain.""Why have you changed so much, Aiden? The Aiden I know is a good man and would never hurt a woman. But you grabbed, strangled and slapped me many times.""The Aiden you know died when you decided to leave him. Do you think he will still be the same person when he is reborn?""You said you love me, right?""I do lo
"I didn't expect you would actually come!""You can always read the situation that I have no choice!"Aiden invited Nina into his room and he was happy that they had some alone time."What about your kids? When can I see them?""Why do you want to meet them so badly?""I want to see what their faces look like, what if your eldest son actually looks like me?" Aiden tries to get Nina to tease her.Nina sighed and sat down on the sofa feeling uneasy. She had already hired a babysitter tonight to look after Lucas and Lucy until the next morning. But still she felt uneasy.He decided to call Susan, the young woman who looked after her two children. Susan can be trusted because she has looked after her two children several times."Are the children asleep yet?""They have just gone to sleep after reading a book of fairy tales. Don't worry, madam. I'll send them pictures!'"Okay, thank you. Please look after them until I get back!""All right, madam!"Nina closed her phone after she saw the s
Nina got a call from work and she was asked to start work today. She felt very happy, but also felt strange because it was too sudden. She was not allowed to prepare herself and had to come at 9am.After dropping her son, Lucas off at kindergarten and leaving her two-year-old daughter Lucy at daycare, Nina rushes to fulfill the call of duty."S-sorry, I'm not late, am I?" She said breathlessly after entering the manager's room."No, you came just in time!" Said Kenneth Tomson the manager."Have I started work today, sir?""Yes, you have started work today. Incidentally the new head of the company called you to his room on the seventh floor, you will receive a special assignment from him.""Special assignments? But I don't have any special abilities at all so I have to do special assignments.""Hahaha...I don't mean that Miss, I mean Mrs. Connell. Please meet him on the seventh floor!""Okay then, excuse me!"With hesitation, Nina was forced to go up to the seventh floor to meet the ne
New York, United States of AmericaMarch 5, 2024Aiden smoothed the tie around his neck, as much as possible he did everything alone even though Cindy was always willing to do it. Aiden realizes that even though they have been married for five years, he still does not have feelings of love for his wife.Obviously their marriage was only a contract marriage and if he wanted, Aiden could have filed for divorce from Cindy right now. But he couldn't do it, Cindy was a very nice woman and he couldn't stand her."Aiden, how about this tie? I bought it yesterday, I think it matches the color of the suit you're wearing!""Okay, you can put it on for me!" He said. He knew that Cindy really liked helping Aiden tie his tie.Cindy happily did it, she is the ideal wife for Aiden. She is beautiful, intelligent, elegant and has a heart of gold. Everyone praises them as a very well-matched couple and the family demands that they have children soon."Aiden, can I ask you something?""Of course!""Do y
Nina couldn't stop crying, she felt very guilty because she had left her brother for three years. She had worked very hard so she could send money to her aunt to meet the needs of Dion, whom they cared for.In the middle of the hospital corridor, the only sound that could be heard was Nina's crying. She was confused and also devastated, she had not had time to ask her uncle and aunt about what really happened to Dion."I've tried very hard. Studying and living alone in a foreign country, surviving on my own. I left Dion with doubts at that time. When I got a scholarship, Dion was very happy, he said he was very proud of me, he supported me and hope that one day our life will change for the better. We always dreamed of being able to leave the house and live in our house. A week before Dion's 12th birthday, he had an accident. At that time, he and his friends were selling newspapers by riding a bicycle. But a car lost control and hit him until his leg was crushed. Dion's right leg had t
Manila, Philippines, November 5, 2018Nina held Gavin's hand as they got out of the taxi that took them to the hotel where they were staying. Gavin is a quiet person and only speaks when necessary, but he always pays attention to every little thing related to Nina."You need something?" Gavin asked when Nina held his hand tightly."No, I don't need anything!" Nina smiled shyly. She opened the hotel room door and sat down on the bed. She was tired from a long flight.Gavin put and arranged their suitcases in the corner of the room, in contrast to Nina who is practical and relaxed, Gavin is very perfectionist and serious, they complement each other."Shall we go to see Dion now?" Ask Gavin."I think Dion hasn't come home from school yet. Usually he'll be home at 4 pm and now it's still 12 noon.""So, we should have lunch first!""Come on, Captain! Relax a bit. We only got here 10 minutes ago and you can't rest at all. Come on, sit beside me!" She said while patting the bed beside her.G
"What? Married to Stuart Lombardi's daughter?" Granny was surprised to hear Aiden's statement while they were enjoying breakfast quietly.Aiden's statement shocked his grandmother and mother, especially his mother who knew that Aiden really loved Nina and planned to marry her."Aiden, what did you say?" Ask Mrs. Emila. She knew that Aiden was hiding something from her."Didn't your mother say that you already have a wife in New York? A young woman named Karenina Morales?""That's true, Grandma. But we decided to broke up and I'm in a relationship with Cindy.""Emila, what is this?""I don't know, Mom. Looks like Aiden has something to explain to me!" She said as she shot her son a glare.Aiden shuddered, he knew that he couldn't hide anything from his mother. A week ago, he had told his mother that he and Nina had broken up. If he suddenly said that he was going to marry Cindy, his mother would be suspicious.After finishing breakfast, Mrs. Emila asked Aiden to meet her in her room, s
