Lucille
I set foot in the dark foreboding tunnel and immediately grabbed Jasper’s arm. The coldness and dank stale air made it hard to breathe. Boo pointed the flashlight ahead and I swallowed hard seeing the long path with the light only reaching a few meters. The rest was pitch dark and made me think of the movie I am Legend. Like at any moment we would run into zombies lurking in the dark and waiting to bite our necks off. My heart pounded in my ears and I breathed deeply and fast, but no air seemed to reach my lungs. The tight and narrow space, only good for two people widthwise, made me dizzy. I had no choice but to hold on tighter to Jasper and tell him I was scared. He put his arms around me and I almost laughed out loud

Pretty woman April 26, 2009 Boo Last night, I left Lucille unconscious with Steph and ran with Dr. Steward to the viewing area because a nurse had paged him that Jasper was in code blue. A doctor was pushing on his chest and using that thing they used in the movies where they shock your heart. I forgot what it was called, but they used it again and again alternating with the other doctor who did the cpr. "Jas. Please fight! Come on, man. You just came back into my life. Don't leave again, damn it. Don't leave me!" The pain in my knuckles, as I hit the wall, didn't hurt as much as the crushing pain in my chest while I thought of Jasper's life slipping away. Back at the farm

Bittersweet April 26, 2009 Lucille I felt the warmth of his body on mine. And as he said sweet words that melted my heart, a bittersweet feeling overwhelmed me. I thought of how much I wanted to turn around and kiss him, but then a part of me wanted to go back to Jasper's side and wait for him to wake up. Boo let go of his tight hug and I turned around to face him, mustering up the courage to tell him how I truly felt. But the ring on his phone shocked my courage away. He excused himself and walked a few steps, turning his back on me. I looked at his tall hot figure in a black suit and sighed. If I choose Boo, would our work life

Us? We? April 26, 2009 Boo "Us?" Lucille looked at me like I was crazy. "What do you mean a house for us?" "Well, I'm just talking futurewise. I'm manifesting it. Law of attraction." "You believe in that stuff?" she scoffed. "Of course. All rich people do. That’s why we’re rich." I chuckled. I loved teasing her. "So, would you ever consider moving in with me?" "Stop joking around, Boo. You're giving me a headache." "You're still confused about me and Jasper, huh?" She looked out the

The Bed in the OfficeMay 2, 2009LucilleI've always loved movies. There's just something about them that makes me want to be that wild character or be in that beautiful place or be born in that certain time, or even be in that newly discovered planet. What I never did wish to be in were the ones with death defying actions, or the ones where someone always had to die. And yet, all of these had come true the moment I met my two rebound men. Now I have to choose between them. I have to know which one I like better. To find out which one I've fallen in love with.But I don't know how. I don't know who. I don't know what to do.Ugh! It feels like I'm writing a

The Big MistakeMay 10, 2009Jasper"Okay, ladies give me your best. Don't stop moving." I said without gusto.I put the camera on burst mode because although I was looking at the models posing and smiling, and seducing me, my mind was somewhere else. They all looked amazing with their colorful outfits, make ups and their out of this world hairstyle, I didn't even know how to describe it.“Okay, ladies. Great job. I think I have what I need now. Thank you, everyone. A pleasure working with you all.” I said as I looked at the photos on my camera.“Jasper, do you still need B

I Wish I Knew WhoMay 10, 2009LucilleI stepped right and he stepped right. I stepped to the left and he stepped to the left. We went on like this for a minute more until he held his arms to his sides forming a barricade. I remembered the faces of the models blowing kisses at him and my right foot stomped hard on his left foot. Jasper jumped back up."Ow! Please, Lu. Hear me out. Ben is here. I brought him as my witness." he said, holding my shoulders to stop me from going.The people in the lab laughed at the sight of us. It was already 6pm and both the morning shifts and night shifts were there for the endorsements."W

F**k the RulesMay 11, 2009BooI couldn't sleep. The room felt so hot even though I opened all the windows. After minutes of tossing and turning, I finally gave up on sleep and went to my room's balcony for which I instantly regretted having heard Dylan and Steph’s loud and wild sex sounds. I shuddered, went inside and closed the door. The alarm clock on the bedside table glowed and it was already two in the morning. I left my bedroom and walked to the kitchen to get some water. A few steps from the kitchen door, I stopped on my tracks and listened to two people laughing softly. My heart sank. It was Lucille’s laugh. I squinted my eyes and took a peek at the door’s open crack.“Idiot!” she said as she smacked his

Never Have I EverMay 11, 2009JasperI groaned the moment my eyes opened. My mind realized I wasn’t in dreamland anymore and a weary sad feeling consumed me as if there was a rain cloud above my head. Last night, I lost in a rock paper scissors game with Boo and so he won the bet to spend the first whole day with Lucille. Stop thinking about it. She’s not going to choose him.The sun wasn’t up yet and the cold wind made the leaves of the coconut trees dance. I looked ahead and found the waves mesmerizingly relaxing."Hey, Jas! You okay?"Dylan came out of their balcony and caught me star

Epilogue Jasper I backed her up against the kitchen wall and held her chin up to look at me. Her ragged breaths told me she wanted me just as badly. I tasted the tint of oranges from her lips and it reminded me of our first kiss. It was six in the morning when I woke up and she wasn't beside me. I found the kids still sleeping in their nursery and figured Lu was probably preparing breakfast. "If you wanna fuck me, do it now before the little cockblockers wake up." "Shhh I'm still admiring your beauty. This is all mine, you hear me?" I said as I let the straps of her nightgown fall off her shoulders. "Yes, boss." L

But now looking at Nora, DJ and Jessie decorating the huge tree in the living room of our new mansion, I realized it was my favorite holiday again. "Daddy! I need you to lift me up so I can put the star. Please?" DJ called me and interrupted my thoughts. The nine foot tree colourfully glowed, making me miss grandpa who always loved Christmas trees. "Ok, baby. Come here." I held her by the waist and hoisted her up. "Boy, you're getting heavy." "Done." DJ beamed. I put her do

Get your son out of that mud pit right away!” I shouted as little Aspen kept jumping up and down, splashing mud all over his clothes and face. “He won’t listen to me, Lu. He’s the boss!” Jasper tried pulling Aspen but he sat on the ground. “I’ll show you who’s the Boss. Come here you two!” I shouted at them while I ran. “Ahhhh run Aspen, run! Mommy Monster is coming to eat us.” Jasper and Aspen ran toward the mansion and I shouted for them to stop before they brought mud all over the house. But of course I was too late. Mud was all over the floor. After our two months honeymoon, Jasp

As I danced with my gorgeous billionaire husband, who would walk through fire for me, my heart overfilled with joy. I rested my head on his chest and inhaled his intoxicating perfume. The band played Unforgettable by Nat KingCole and Jasper and I held each other close. “I love you so much, Lu.” “I love you so much, Jas. I can’t believe you planned all these without telling me. Or without me finding out.” “It’s easy when

The Photoshoot June 5, 2009 Lucille Jasper and I drove to a beautiful beach house in the Hamptons for the photoshoot. Two days ago, Steph and Jade came with me to the fitting and they said I looked beautiful. I felt beautiful. The dress was every girl’s dream come true. It showed all the right curves and was just the right amount of puffy. The lace work and real diamonds were to die for. “We're here.” Jasper said, parking the car in a big mansion. “Grandfather’s grandfather helped build this with his own hands. “Wow. That’s amazing. It’s beautiful, Jas.” I got out of the car as he opened the door for me. Ever since that bleeding episode, he has been treating

Why?” “Have you ever been in love before?” Nora looked at me and didn’t say anything. I was about to ask her again when she suddenly said, “Yes. To a man way older than me. He was a nurse who voluntered at the orphanage. And one day, the day before I turned sixteen, he raped me. I’ve never trusted any man ever since.” “I’m sorry to hear that. Th

It’s a Sign June 1, 2009 Boo Having finished all my work before lunch, I called Nora to come by and bring some food. I gave her one of the company credit cards to spend on anything she wants. So far the record shows she only used it to buy lingeries and our lunch. My phone rang and I cancelled the call once I saw it was Jasper. I was ashamed of my outburst, but I also wasn't ready to apologize. Lucille left me a long email explaining how much she loves me and cares for me, but only as a friend and as part of the family. She told me to find my own happiness even if it meant it was Nora whom she still didn't trust. If the baby is yours, Boo I promise we will tell him/her the truth. Please don't be mad anymore.

A Good Day May 30, 2009 Lucille Dr. Steward put me on bed rest for two days after I got released from the hospital. Jasper and I thought it was better if we stayed in my apartment for a while to avoid Boo, who had been ignoring our chats and calls. “Honey? You okay, Lulu bear?” Grandpa Joe peeked his head through my bedroom. “Come in pops.” I grinned from ear to ear. “What’s up?” “Oh nothing. I only wanted to talk to you before we left for the airport. I’m happy to see you so happy, Lu. You deserve all the best things in life.” “But grandpa, I’ve hurt Boo so much. I sh

The bottle of whiskey was empty by the time she arrived an hour later. Nora looked at me with pity in her eyes and I wanted to laugh. I wanted to cry. I hated the nagging ache that drummed with every heartbeat. I hated Lucille and Jasper. “Are you okay?” “I know everything about you. Why didn’t you just tell me what you needed the money for?” “Coz I don’t want to be somebody’s charity case. I can manage on my own.” “By trying to fuck your w
