Akiaya and Victor both got into her car. Her driver offered to take them to the mall but she refused. This was a time she wanted to probe him and poke holes into his façade. She headed in the direction of Galleria Department Store. It is an upscale luxury store. On their ride over she spoke to him. "Do you know what size she wears?"
He looked over at her then back to the road. "Are you implying that we've had sex?""Well yeah. Chu isn't a virgin. She' done it before. Are you saying in the 2 years you've been together you two haven't?" He could only clear his throat. It made since to her now as to why he was stepping out on her. He was tired of waiting but that still didn't absolve him of his wrong doing. Cheating is harmful not only to the body but to the soul. It also says a lot about the person that's doing the cheating. She stopped at the red light and looked at him. "So I assume you wouldn't know her size by looking at it right?""What the hell kind of guy do yVictor looked at Chun-Hei with the shock on his face. "What do you mean a vacation? Are we going somewhere?"That question caused The women to both turn to them and smile. Chun-Hei hugged him with a wide smile on her face. "Yes! Aki arranged for us to be together for a couple of weeks. Isn't she wonderful?""She's something alright." He turned to look at Akiaya with an indescribable smile on her face. It was as if she held a hint of smugness in that smile mixed with mischievousness and disdain. It was a smile he would never want to see again. Victor turned to her and bowed. "Thank you for looking out for me. I promise to keep my promise to make Chu happy."The smile that was on Akiaya's face vanished. Her eyebrow arched at his proclamation. It took everything in her to not react to him indifferently. "Sure. Just keep her the only one satiated and we wont have any of problems." She turned around and left. Being in his presence annoyed her to the point where she could'v
By the time Akiaya got to the front of the hotel, the woman was standing out front near her car. She took the time to walk around her car. From her perspective everything looked in order, no scratches or dents on her car. She breathed out in relief then whirled around on the woman. "Care to explain why you scared me half to death over my car?"The little kitten looked down embarrassed. "I wasn't sure if there was damage or not but I did in fact hit a pole. But I wasn't spending or anything." By the end of her sentence her head was up and her hands were moving rapidly as she spoke.Akiaya was nodding her head in understanding as she also took in the whole demeanor and build of the woman. She was indeed a cute kitten. Well taken care of. Maybe she didn't know about Chu. If that is the case then she couldn't fault her for it. The problem squarely rest with Victor. It was a short while before Akiaya spoke. The woman was beginning to tremble the longer the silence stretched o
The two woman looked at each other and then the staff member. In unison the spoke. "We're fine. Just a misunderstanding." Akiaya allowed the jeongbu to leave first after she followed suit. Once they were seated at their table Akiaya decided to break the small silence they endured. "Listen, I can understand falling in love with a man and finding out he's taken but is this really what you want, kitten?""It's hard to say but I really have strong feelings for him. Plus the sex is…. Oh god it's so amazing. He makes my toes curl every single time."Akiaya covered her mouth as if she was going to vomit. She started turned her head away as if she was retching. "Ew please stop. I do not need to hear that." She took a moment to compose herself. "So what would you do if you ever met his actual significant other?"She looked down thoughtfully, the idea hadn't occurred to her since she had found out. "I don't know I never thought about it. I guess hope she doesn't hit me. Or know anyth
The next day, Chun-Hei arrived at Akiaya's home just as the sun was rising. She had the landlady unlock the door for her as she ran in an jumped on the bed waking Akiaya up. Akiaya instantly screamed at having a strange person in her room. She was still gathering her senses after being unceremoniously awaken. "Aki, Aki, come on get up. Wake up. You said I have to come early.""Hmmm dhdksks.""What…?""I sassafras 30 for."Chun-Hei arched her right eyebrow still unsure of what she actually said. Instead she stripped the comforters and sheets from the bed leaving Akiaya to snap her eyes open and lob a pillow at her head."I said give me 30 more minutes you rude ass girl!"Chu only laughed at her. "Well next time speak properly. I didn't understand a word you even said."Akiaya glared at her as she started to wiggle out of bed. Her feet landed softly on the floor before she slipped them in her slippers. "You could've given me 30 more minutes. It's
The kitten came out looking confused. They both looked up when they had heard the door open and closed softly. Akiaya looked at her tilting her head. "Kitten? What were the results?"She looked up at her, tears brimming her eyes. "They said ….""Miss Eum, the doctor will see you now."Akiaya deflated when she heard her name being called. "Oh okay. Er Chu mind if you talk with her?"Chun-Hei nodded her head as the woman went to sit next to her, the tears finally falling from her eyes. Chun-Hei rubbed her back soothingly as if she was comforting a small child.Akiaya went in the back as directed. The nurse took her temperature them followed up with measuring her weight then lastly her blood pressure. It looked as if she had gained a couple of pounds. It wasn't much but with all the stresses she's been under she assumed she would have lost weight. The nurse gave her a small cup and lead her to the bathroom. Knowing just what it was she wanted Akiaya blushed and wen
"Ahem. Miss? What would you like to order?"Akiaya and Chun-Hei looked at each other and smiled. They both knew who he was referring to. She on the other hand didn't look up at him. She was still studying the menu. Akiaya thought it would be a good time to answer him instead so that he wasn't being idle. "Excuse me sir. I'm ready to order. Little kitten may need more time." At that moment, she actually looked up. "What?!""Nothing dear. Just keep looking ok."She looked at Akiaya then Chun-Hei once more before going back to the menu. Akiaya looked at the waiter and began to place her order. "I would just like a salad and just a bowl of soup. Could you bring me some tea and a glass of water?"Chun-Hei glanced at the menu then settled on her order. "Can you bring me the same as her except I would like a cola instead."The waiter wrote down their order then waited for her. Both of the women looked at her and cleared their throats at the same time. It took a few sec
He had called her wanting to spend some time with her before his next client. She hadn't told him where she was exactly but he accessed the GPS on her phone and went to her. Of course his client was going to meet him in the general vicinity. Victor, knew she was going with Akiaya to the clinic, since she had told him before she left. He opened the door only expecting to see two women but there was a third. His measured steps reached their table and stopped. Victor was smiling when he seen Chun-Hei until his smile deflated just a bit when the woman next to Chun-Hei looked up. How could this be? How could his woman be with his other woman. He had to compose himself.Akiaya had watched Victor's movement from the moment she heard the bell ring signifying another customer had came in. She wanted to make sure this was the one. That this brat, no not brat, idiotic woman was in fact the one he had been sleeping with. She seen how the kitten eyes widen at the sight of him. She notic
Akiaya had nearly finished all of her meal when she received a message from Take. [Hey beautiful. How are you feeling?] It made her smile to see he cared about her. She hadn't told him about her doctor's appointment. How was she going to tell him that they are pregnant. Another more troubling question would be how will she tell her parents. Papa would not be happy. Akiaya was trapped within her own mind trying to navigate the mental maze she put herself in. Regardless, of her course of action someone will not be happy and that someone will be her papa.Chun-Hei noticed that Akiaya was quiet after telling them to sit. This aura permeated around her. Chu knew what must have been on her mind, how will uncle react to the news. Ever since she had met him he was a sort of oddball and would dote more on Akiaya than her own father did. When she was younger she wished that Geun Hye was her father instead of uncle. She was jealous of their relationship but when her dad introduced her
Lu had remained in the hallway until everyone had left. He wished he could continue pretending to be caring towards her but they knew of his deception it wouldn't be smart unless he managed to say he forgot in a moment of panic. With that thought in mind he walked out of the hospital to determine the best course of action.Night had fallen by the time Akiaya had woken up. She felt the familiar weight on her hand. Looking over she the person holding her hand she seen Takeyasu resting his head on his other hand. She rolled her eyes at how uncomfortable he looked. Akiaya smoothed his hair down with her hand. Memories of that night flitted back to her. How his hair cloaked her head and shoulders. He took very great care of his hair. She had hoped that their child would have more of his genetics than her own. Thinking of their child she started to shake him awake. "Take! Takeyasu! Wake up!""Mmm… why you want?""The baby? Is the baby ok?"He turned his head towards her
The car pulled up to the quiet house. No one said a word. As they ascended the stairs. Amor and Emma were waiting in front of the door. They had heard the news of Akiaya being hospitalized. They were worried about her and the baby. Amor was there when the argument broke out. The news of her having a baby shocked him and her was actually happy. They all walked into the home with am anxious Amor in his chair. Just before he was able to speak, Geun Hye turned on Willow and slapped her in her face. Willow wasn't stunned by this, she knew it was going to happen, but she started to scream at him anyway while holding her cheek. "Why would you even slap me? Just because I said I hope she loses that fetus?""That's enough, Willow!" Kenisha placed her hand on her shoulder. Her voice was stern."No! I wont. You've treated me differently ever since you adopted me. I was just your token child used just for show."Kenisha was about to speak when Geun stopped her with a look. "Let her get
The seconds turned into minutes. Time seemed to drag on as they waited. It was silent in the hallway save for the whirling of machines and the clacking of shoes. Lu, finally had appeared in the hallway only to see everyone waiting. He held a tiny smile on his lips as he reveled in their despair. He wanted them to feel her pain. Just as he was turning to leave someone can walking briskly up to the elderly man sitting down. She looked annoyed at having to be pulled away from her priorities. Lu had hurried out of sight. He was standing behind a corner listening in. "Papa, what is it that you called me out here for?""Your sister is inside. She'll want to see you.""… ok? I don't need to be here with her. She's not dying." Willow changed her tine of voice, she almost sounded happy. "Is she dying? Whose going to inherit the company?"Takeyasu couldn't stand the way she was speaking any longer. Just before her father said anything he spoke up. "You are a heartless bitch! I don't
Takeyasu was just about to walk inside the hospital when he saw the same man from earlier. He stopped at the door, unwilling to go inside. Did she really let go of her feelings for him or was this just a coincidence? The man didn't see him when Takeyasu made up his mind to go in. He planned on ignoring him when he heard a small snippet of his conversation. "Yeah, i didn't tell the doctor about the baby. No, they plan on giving her something. She's in the early stages i assume so it shouldn't matter if she has a miscarriage. Yeah fine. Bye."Takeyasu wanted to punch the man right then and there but instead he rushed inside the hospital, bombarding the nurses station. "Ma'am, I need the room for Eum Akiaya. Please, it's an emergency. She's pregnant.""Sir, the patient you are referring to is not pregnant. No one has made that claim. Please take a seat and wait for a moment.""But…""Have a seat sir."Begrudgingly he went to sit down. His anxiety level was creeping
Lu held her in his arms as the paramedics came on the scene. At that moment they could hear a phone ringing. While they loaded her on to a gurney, Lu found her phone in her bag. "Forgive me." The name on the call was Chu. He wasn't sure who it was but someone needed to know what was going on. "Hello?""…" She looked at her phone to check if she dialed the right number. Seeing that she did her face twisted in anger. Her thoughts running in the direction of thievery. "Who are you? Where is Akiaya?""Do you know her? Because Akiaya is going to the hospital for collapsing.""OH MY GOD!" Chun-Hei was grabbing her purse and keys heading towards the door. "What hospital. I will meet her there? Is the baby alright?"Lu looked down at her phone when he heard that. "What baby?"Chun-Hei didn't have time to explain anything she wanted to be there for her cousin. "Let the EMT's know she is pregnant. And get the name of the hospital she is going to. Keep me updated sir. Just text
Akiaya and Lu walked and talked throughout the entire neighborhood. She did feel uncomfortable with his hand against her lower back but didn't say anything. It's not like he meant anything by it. They started to pass by a café when her stomach began to growl. She looked away bashfully trying to hide her embarrassment. "It sounds like you haven't eaten anything. Would you like to go inside?""No, I'll ne fi…" Her stomach grumbled again making her change her mind. "Yes. But I can pay for my own meal.""No its my treat. I invited myself out on your walk. It's the least I can do.""Alright."The two of them went inside. Akiaya let him know what she wanted and he stood in line to order it. As she was glancing around the café her eyes locked on to a familiar pair of grey eyes. No it couldn't be him. He wouldn't follow her. Akiaya looked away just in time for Lu to come back to the table with her muffin and orange juice. She gave him a smile to ward off her desire to find
Willow sat in the board room with her head down. It was as if she was trying to get herself into the right frame of mind. Silently she listened as the members filed in to the room one by one. She thought of her favorite movie that always made her sad. The fake tears streamed down her cheeks. Willow took that moment to look up as the members sat down. "Forgive me for calling for this meeting but its Akiaya."Victor was also in the room when he saw how she looked. It piqued his interest. He waited to hear what she had to say."Akiaya … she… she." Willow stopped for a dramatic pause before continuing on. "She is trying to ruin the company. I've been her assistant for a month and she has not done any of the work my father permitted for her."Victor was the first person to speak, silencing all other members. "You bring this accusation to us now, when the accused is home sick at the moment. Why haven't you told us this before hand?""I was afraid she would fire me. Papa
Takeyasu had made it to the apartment. An elderly woman met him outside with a smile. "Good morning. Are you Takeyasu?"He bowed to her before standing up. "Yes, I'll take the apartment. My brother and I are tired of living in a hotel.""You don't want to look at it the decide?""I've already decided I'll take it but I should look into it so I can have the best room."The woman just shrugged her shoulders. She started to open the door when Take took the handle from her and held it open. She gave him a smile before hobbling inside. Takeyasu followed suit behind her. "Your apartment is on the second floor. Its two bedrooms. We have a community laundry room in the basement." She took him up the stairs. Takeyasu walked slowly behind her making sure she didn't fall.Once they reached the second floor. She started speaking again. "Across the hall is Akiaya apartment. Today she didn't leave for work like she normally does. I think she's sick. Its uncommon for her. She'
Takamasa couldn't understand why Willow was being so bratty at a time like this. He started to wonder if maybe she was a little on the crazy side. He obviously didn't want her to stay in a bathhouse but he knew now was the time Takeyasu needed him the most. Masa started to send her a message then deleted it. Now wasn't the time to bother her. Instead he went upstairs to see how his twin was fairing. He had it in his mind to go see Akiaya the next day.Akiaya was in her bed with food spread out around her as she played music and watched movies. She had hoped that the sounds would muffle the tears she shed as she cried into her ice cream. Just as a scene came up where the love interests confessed to each other she took a huge bite of spicy noodles. "You better make sure he didn't sleep with your sister!" she head was in a fog and her mouth was dry. She got up off her bed to grab the bottle of red wine she had in the fridge. Taking the top off she nearly drank from the bottle
