ADELE

I groaned as I checked the time for the umpteenth time this afternoon. Chris is yet to arrive back from the work that he is not supposed to be at in the first place.

It has been an hour!

A fucking whole hour and he still isn't back yet. My stomach rumbled and I groaned as I got up from the bed. I pushed my purse away in frustration before going downstairs. After finally getting down about twenty stairs, I kicked my heels off my feet before continuing with my walk.

I am dressed in a black and white striped gown that is very free underneath. I got into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. The bucket of vanilla ice cream that Chris had brought home with the groceries two days ago is still lying there, in the fridge.

I pulled it out before getting a ceramic bowl from the drawers. I served myself a portion that would be enough for me before returning the bucket to the refrigerator.

I walked out of the kitchen with the bowl of ice cream in my hand as I muttered incohere

    ADELE Chris drove silently to the park while I hummed continuously from where I sat. "Are you that happy?" Chris's suddenly asked me and I turned my head to look at him. "You have no idea," I replied with a chuckle before turning to face the road. "What if I had not suggested it to you then?" He asked and I sighed. "You can always tell me when you want to do something," Chris's started and I turned my head to look at him, "I hope you know that." "I know," I started before moving my left hand towards his chin and pushing it slightly. "now, face the front and we won't have an accident." Chris chuckled at my words and I smiled widely at what just transpired between us. I am growing fonder of Chris as the days passed. I am starting to get scared of it. ~ We finally arrived at the park and we got down from the car. To think I would be visiting the park after all that happened last year is surprising. "Shall we?" Chris asked as he extended his right hand toward me. I did not

    ADELE Chris appeared back in front of me within minutes with a plastic bag in his hand. I raised a brow at it first before looking up at him. He bent down in front of me and held my right leg over his left knee. "What are you doing?" I asked immediately with wide eyes. He removed both of my heels before reaching into the plastic bag. He pulled out two fluffy things and I furrowed my brows at them. "What are those?" I asked Chris as he slid my right foot into one of the fluffy things. "I don't know. I found them in the mart nearby," Chris replied before standing up on his feet. "Try walking in those, instead of those goddamn heels. They are much more comfortable to walk in," he said to me, worry all over his face. I looked down at the things on my feet and I smiled a bit. They are blue and they have bunny ears and eyes on them. I moved my feet in them before standing on my feet. They are quite comfortable too. I picked up my heels and placed them in the plastic bag be

  • Married To The Jinx    42 Visiting Chris's Company

    ADELE Our lives went on as usual after the visit to the park and today is Monday. Chris has left for work while I am here in the sitting room, glaring at the television. God, I do not even understand a thing that is going on on it. I glanced up at the wall clock and my eyes brightened when I saw the time. It is not lunchtime yet. I have been thinking about it and I want to surprise Chris at his place of work someday. He has been doing everything for me since we got into this marriage together and now I feel like it's time to do something back in return. Well, that someday can always be today. I got up from the couch immediately and switched off the television before going to the kitchen. That's right, I am intending to make him lunch and head to his office to deliver it to him. I can still remember the way to his office building since that time when we went to his congratulatory event together. I looked around the kitchen and a frown appeared on my face. I had gotten so

    How are you enjoying the novel so far? Don't forget to vote with gems and leave a review, dear. The reviews would be very much appreciated (teary eyes), thank you. Chris's POV? Enjoy!! •CHRISTOPHERI was working on my computer when my phone suddenly vibrated on the table. I picked it up and found out that a new message had popped up on it. I opened the message and I frowned when I saw who it is from. Bianca. What does she want? She started in the message that she is coming to see me and I am wondering why. I picked up the wireless telephone anyways and called the lobby. I informed the receptionist to let her in immediately when she arrives before cutting off the call instantly. I sighed as I placed my jaw on my folded hands. My phone turned on and the picture I used as my wallpaper brought a small smile to my face. Adele hasn't seen it- yet. It is a picture of Adele that I took this morning when she was asleep. She had looked so adorable right there and then that I could not

    ADELEThe front door clicked open and my head snapped towards it immediately. Chris walked into the house with a bored look on his face, matching my energy right now. I hope he does not have that talk with me but a part of me wants him to explain it to me anyways. "Hey," he called out as he stood beside the couch I am sitting on and I forced a smile. "Hey," I replied as I stared at him with that bitter smile still on my face and he forced a smile back at me. I took my gaze off him and turned to face the television I had not been watching for the past hour now. It is not my fault that it suddenly got so boring to me. The couch suddenly went down from Chris's weight and I knew instantly that he is now sitting beside me. "Adele," he called my name out softly and I gulped as I continued to stare at the television. "Mm?" I hummed back in response. "I am sorry," he suddenly spat, still maintaining his soft tone and I was taken aback a bit.I turned to look at Chris beside me and he

  • Married To The Jinx    45 I Love You

    ADELE Chris and I cooked dinner together after our little conversation earlier and everything went well. We talked, laughed, joked about silly things and it kind of made me grateful to myself that I had chosen to listen to him and hear him out. Instead of just staying angry and upset about what I saw. We are about to sleep right now and I am already on the bed. I have finished taking a shower and Chris is inside the bathroom right now. The door to the bathroom suddenly clicked open and Chris walked out of it. He has a towel wrapped around his lower body and beads of water keep trailing down every inch and crook of his body. I won't lie, I like the sight of it. His body glistens so much under the chandelier's bright lights. His head suddenly turned to look at me as he walked toward the closet and I took my gaze off him immediately. I heard Chris chuckle and I looked up with a fake frown on my face. "What?" I asked with a raised eyebrow and he stopped walking, just in front of

  • Married To The Jinx    46 Pecked My Lips While I Was Asleep

    CHRISTOPHERI yawn before opening my eyes. I sat up, only to feel a weight pushing me down. I looked down at it and it was Adele's leg. She has her left leg sprawled over my two legs, holding me down as she slept on her stomach. I smiled at the way she can sleep so soundly. Looking at her carefully now, Liam was right. Adele truly is more beautiful than Bianca with her naturally cute and small face. Some strands of her hair are covering half of her face and I moved toward her immediately. I pushed my hand forward to remove the strands away from her face before tucking them behind her ear. My eyes trailed down her smooth and flawless face and I gulped when I saw her lips. Her lips are puckered in front of me cutely, just like a child. I grinned when a thought occurred to me. I supported my weight with my right elbow before moving my head down. When I reached a close proximity, I looked back at Adele's eyes, and her even breath fanned my face. I lowered myself instantly and pecke

    CHRISTOPHERAnd I am happy to tell you all that Adele packed nothing. She is in the sitting room, watching TV and laughing like a child. I can't even bring myself to believe that she is watching kids' cartoons right now. I had wanted to tell her to come upstairs to pack her luggage but I decided against it when I saw that cute smile on her face. So, here I am in the room with Adele's luggage in my hand. Yes, I intend to pack her clothes for her, myself. I sighed as I walked into the closet and went to her side of the closet instead. I packed a few light clothes for her and after a while, I was ready to close up the luggage. I suddenly got reminded of something and I cursed violently. Underwear! She is going to need those too. I went to the cabinet in the middle of the room and pulled a drawer out of it. I was greeted by numerous colors of brassieres and I closed my eyes instantly. I took in a deep breath as I thought. 'I am only helping her out. Also, she is my wife. I can always

    ADELEIt's been a week since the competition. Everything is back to normal and Chris has even gotten up to prepare for work today as well.Oh yes, Bianca's modeling job went down because of what happened at the competition. Apparently, someone had been filming all that happened. She got out of the police jail not long after she was placed in it but I think she has learnt her lesson. Chris walked out of the walk-in closet and I sat up immediately to look at him. I felt a sharp headache and I hissed. Chris got in front of me- at the foot of the bed- in no time as he asked. "Hey, are you okay?" I pushed my hand in front of him to tell him to stop talking. I don't know where this headache came from all of a sudden. "Yeah, I am fine," I replied with a smile as I looked up at Chris. My stomach started making some disturbance and I winced when I suddenly got a stomach ache. I bent forward on my seat on the bed as I clenched the cloth holding my stomach tightly in my hand. "Adele?""So

    ADELE"So, why did you do it? Why did you take my artwork?" I asked and she moved in the tight grip of the investigator. She brought her face in front of mine as she spat those foolish, unkind words. "Because I hate you," she replied as she looked into my eyes and I frowned. She moved back as a loud hysterical laugh escaped her lips. The investigators moved his feet while he pulled Bianca after him. She stopped laughing all of a sudden and screamed at the top of her voice. "I can walk on my own!" She demanded to the investigator who held on to her right arm and he let her go immediately. She walked in the front while the two investigators walked behind her. I released a deep breath as they went out of my sight. Chris arrived backstage with the two men who had collected my artwork from me outside the hotel yesterday. They were both carrying my artwork."You are here," I said as he reached in front of me and he nodded. "And let's welcome Mrs. Marvin to the stage!" I heard the Ma

    ADELEThe investigators arrived some moments later in a black round-neck top and jean trousers. Two of them went into the hotel while others stayed inside the car, not far away from the hotel. I welcomed them into my hotel room and shut the door. I am only thankful that the event has started, so all the artists are in there. Chris asked me to take my seat on the bed while the two investigators stood in front of me. Chris stood on my left, not far away from the bed and not far away from the investigators. "When last did you see the artwork, Mrs. Marvin?" The nice and calm looking one of the investigators asked. "Uh, yesterday afternoon when I brought it here in my husband's car," I replied and the other one wrote something down. "Your husband explained to us that two men collected the artwork from you," he said and I nodded. "That's right," I replied and the other man wrote something down again. "Can you describe those men?"I nodded and tried to make a good description of them

    ADELE"Bianca?" I asked as I squinted my eyes at her and she giggled. "Surprise!" She said back cheerfully and I furrowed my brows at her. What is wrong with her?"Oh right, I did not know you would be here as well," she added in her normal self as she slanted her lips at me. I must say, she is still looking beautiful as always. "What are you doing here?" I asked and she sighed. "I am here for the art competition," she replied and my mouth went round in surprise. I thought she was a model, how can she be here? Or does she perhaps paint as well?"Wha-? How?" I let out uncontrollably and she chuckled again. "Well, I might have lied to my new boyfriend that I know how to paint. Then, he signed me up for this and here I am," she said with a shrug and I nodded at her words knowingly. Well, that sounds like her. "Nice to see you again then," I greeted as I forced a smile at her and she smiled back instantly."Same here," she replied and I hummed before getting into my room. "I wil

    ADELE"Chris? What are you doing here?" I asked with my eyes wide in surprise. "Can I come in?" He asked and I moved away from the door immediately. "Of course," I replied as Chris pushed his body in with a sigh. I closed the door and turned around to look at Chris immediately. "I called your phone," he said with a sigh as he sat down at the edge of the bed. "My phone is dead," I replied as I moved forward and stood in front of him. "Oh, I got so worried though," he breathed under his breath and I took my seat beside him. "I know"Chris pulled me into a hug immediately I sat down and I gasped in surprise. I became comfortable in his arms and just hugged him back tightly. "I missed you," he breathed into my neck and I chuckled. "I missed you too," I replied as I rubbed his back with my right hand. We stayed like that for a short while before he finally let me go slowly. "How are you?" He asked as he held my hands in both of his. "I am fine," I replied with a small smile on

    ADELE"My artwork?" She asked and I nodded. "Some guys asked for my painting when I got in front of the hotel-," I started panicking as I explained but she cut me off midway. "Oh, those guys. I forgot about them," she replied and I took in a deep breath, waiting for her to continue. "They collected mine as well, saying they had somewhere allocated for each artwork," she added and I released the breath I was holding. "I guess that is how it works then," I said with a smile and she nodded. "Yeah"She faced the stage before turning to look at me again. "I am Veronica," she introduced herself as she stretched her hand which had three rings on them towards me. "Wow," I said out in amazement anyways and her expression turned into one of deep confusion. "You have the same name as my younger sister, that's all," I replied quickly before taking her hand. "I am Adele, Adele Marvin," I said proudly and her eyes widened. "I knew you looked familiar," she said cheerfully with a huge smil

    ADELE"He knew my name, it was pretty weird," I came out to Chris as I furrowed my brows at the direction the men had gone in. "Oh?" Chris asked back and I turned to look at him. "Yeah," I nodded and Chris raised a brow. "You realize that is not strange, right?" Chris asked with a chuckle and I frowned in confusion. "And how is it not?" "Because you are pretty popular. At least, a bit." Chris explained before using his index and thumb to hold his jaw as if he was thinking about something."Uhn?" I asked with a raised eyebrow. I am still confused. He brought his focus back to me before explaining more clearly, "You are Mrs. Marvin, remember?" He asked and my mouth went round in shape in realization. "Oh yeah! Yeah, that's true. I almost forgot," I said the last sentence as a silly joke as I chuckled but I don't think Chris understands. He is looking at me in surprise and confusion at the same time. "Come on, I have to get my baggage out of the car," I said as I hit him playful

    ADELEIt's finally a day before the day of the competition and I am very excited about it. Chris is carrying the little baggage I packed into the car. The baggage contains the little necessities I might be needing during my stay there. He returned to the art room and I took my gaze off the covered artwork- that is standing against the wall- to him."I seriously can't peep at it?" Chris asked and I rejected the idea immediately. "No! It is going to be a big surprise," I replied with a tired sigh. "Help me get it out of the house?" I asked and he walked closer to where I stood. "Sure!" He replied before holding the artwork from his side. He tried lifting his side and he dropped it back down instantly. My eyes widened in fear when I heard that slight sound it made against the tiled floor. "Don't you dare hurt that thing, Chris, or I am going to get angry at you," I warned with a frown on my face as I pointed my index finger at Chris and he chuckled. "I seriously don't know why you

    ADELEI have moved back into my art room since the moment I started working on this competition project. I don't want Chris to see what I am making or it would ruin the big surprise. The competition or event is in two weeks and Chris has really been helping me a lot. He has been buying all the art supplies I ask for while I collect them from him, just at the door of the art room. Then, I shut the door right in his face. It had been fun to shut the door in his face in the beginning but now, I miss him so much, that I close the door slowly. A knock sounded on the door and I raised my head from the painting quickly. Chris is here. When did he get back from work?I dropped my brush in a can before walking to the door. I pulled it open and Chris's face appeared in front of me. "Hey," I breathed out and he smiled. "Hey," he replied before pushing his hands into his pocket. "Dinner is ready," he added as he took his left hand out of his pocket and pointed behind him. "Oh oh, I will b
