Married To The Jinx 65 What's For Dinner?
ADELEMother and I finished making lunch and we served everyone's portion. I carried the plate in twos out of the kitchen before calling Chris and Father from the sitting room. We were all seated at the dining table with me beside Chris and Mom and Dad, just opposite us. I served Chris some syrup on his pancakes before looking up at his face. Wait, why does he look so bothered?Did Father say something wrong to him?I took my right and placed it on his lap. His head slowly turned toward me and I wasted no time in mouthing to him. "Are you okay?" I asked faintly and his reply shook me a bit. "I am fine," he replied in his normal very clear and loud voice, causing Mother and Father to look up at us. At least, it's just my parents. I smiled at them and we all continued eating anyways. I kept taking side glances at Chris and the solemn look on his face is still there. Even though it looked almost unnoticeable, I can still see that he is not feeling too good. Father must have said s
Married To The Jinx 66 I Love You
ADELE"It's why you never said it back when I said it. That is why you've never told me," he began saying calmly again before looking back into my eyes. "that you love me."His last few words came in such whispers that I felt my heart stop for a bit. What?! "But really, do I mean nothing to you? Is that how little my trust in you is?" He questioned as he took slow steps forward, causing me to move back a bit."Could you not confide in me?""You could have told me first, Adele!" He yelled and I felt my eyes sting immediately."But you chose to distance yourself from me instead," he commented silently and I closed my eyes as I tried to savor what was happening. I opened my eyes to meet Chris's gaze on me. He still has that hurt and disappointed look on his face and he has no idea how badly his look is tearing me apart.He let my hand go all of a sudden before taking a few steps back. He turned around to walk away and it took everything in me to be able to voice out something. "I am
Married To The Jinx 67 You Need Some Scolding
ADELEIt's been two days since I have 'that' fight with Daniel. Everything has been going smoothly since then but I don't know, I still feel like I hurt his pride too much. Chris is cooking dinner while I watch him. I have asked him to prepare me Lo Mein Noodles again. It's my favorite meal of his. He turned to look at me with a smile as he grabbed an ingredient and I smiled back. And that was when it occurred to me. I know a way in which I can pay Chris back for what I did to him. I mean, at least get this feeling off my chest. I am going to make a drawing of him or a painting. A drawing that would be so spectacular, he would want to hold it close to his heart. It won't be like the drawing of a half-naked Chris that I have drawn before- God, I hope he does not see that- it would be so embarassing.A plate of noodles was dropped in front of me and I looked up at Chris. "You seemed like you were not here at all. What were you thinking about?" He asked as he took his seat beside me
Married To The Jinx 68 You Are Perfection Itself
ADELE It's Saturday and Chris is driving me to his mother's house himself. I did not notify her beforehand of my visit, because I want to surprise her. "I hope she is at home," I commented with slanted lips as I stared at the road ahead of us. "She is always at home on Saturdays, trust me" Chris replied and I turned to look at him. "You keep saying that. What if she isn't?" I asked with a frown on my face. "Well, then it's out of my hands," Chris started with a nonchalant look on his face. "I wasn't the one who wanted to give her a surprise visit," he added before raising both hands from the steering wheel. "Chris!" I shouted immediately and his hands went back on the steering wheel instantly. "What?!" He questioned, matching the tone I had used for him. "You are going to get us killed," I answered through gritted teeth as I bore holes beside his head with my eyes. "No, I am not," he replied immediately and I just stared at him. I finally took my eyes off him as a deep sigh
Married To The Jinx 69 Scenes In Front Of His Mother
ADELEI moved my body forward to walk to where Mrs. Marvin stood in front of her house's front door but Chris won't let me leave. His hand that is around my waist held on tightly to me all of a sudden, hindering my movement. I looked up at him and he took his eyes off his mother before looking down at me. "Let's go together," Chris said softly with a small handsome smile on his face and I stared at him, almost losing myself in those eyes. 'Almost'I pulled myself out of his hand abruptly and his eyes widened at me. "Stop acting like a child," I hissed playfully as I looked at him from top to bottom. I looked back at the woman who is still patiently waiting for us in front of that door, with a genuine smile on her face. "Adele," I heard Chris whine from behind me and I almost laughed out loud. I kept on walking and soon, I was in front of Mrs. Marvin. "Good afternoon, ma'am," I greeted with a smile on my face and she smiled back instantly. Suddenly, her face went into a frown
Married To The Jinx 70 A Long Chatty Interaction With Chris's Mother
ADELE"Take a seat," Chris's mother said as she took her seat on one of the couches in the sitting room.I walked forward with a small polite smile on my face before sitting down on the couch beside the couch she was sitting on. I am just to her left-hand side. My eyes fell on the plate containing different sliced-into-bits fruits on the table and I raised a brow at it. "Am I perhaps, interrupting your lunch?" I tried to sound as polite as I could. I hope it came out well. "Oh no, not at all," Chris's mother replied with a smile on her face and I smiled back. "You would not believe it," she started, calling my attention to her. "I was carrying this out of the kitchen when I saw you and Chris having fun outside," she said, completing her sentence with a wink and my mouth went slightly agape. I looked down at my lap as I tried to think of the right response to give. She is talking about when Chris pulled me back to kiss me. "I- I-""I am glad you guys are having fun," she eased m
Married To The Jinx 71 Art Exhibition Invite
ADELEChris's mother let out a chuckle before speaking up again. "I have been invited to an art exhibition," she started with all of her focus on me. "And I was wondering if you and Chris could go in my stead," she added as she blinked continuously at me and I looked down at my now empty bowl.I don't know if Chris would be willing to go. "Do you think Chris would want to-?" I started saying and she cut me off immediately. "Of course! As long as you are going, I am sure he would want to go as well," she assured me with a wink and I smiled a bit. "Thank you for the invite then," I said politely with a smile and she nodded. "Remind me to get the invitation letter for you when you are about to leave," she said with bright eyes and I nodded. "Okay, Mother"Everything went quiet once again and I played with my fingers."I should call Chris. I would soon be taking my leave," I said slowly as I looked up at Chris's mother."What?! You are leaving soon?" She asked with wide eyes and I
Married To The Jinx 72 A Realistic Drawing Of Chris
ADELEWe arrived at home and it was getting dark outside already. Chris parked the car on one side and I got down from the car immediately, pulling my bag after me. I went inside the house and the sensitive lights in the sitting room immediately turned on. I turned back to check if Chris was coming and I watched him walk closer and closer. I decided to leave the front door open before walking slowly into the sitting room. God, I am so tired. All I did was sit down and chat with Chris's mother. I have no idea how I got so exhausted. The front door closed behind me and I turned around. Chris walked in and I forced a small smile at him. "You have no idea how much I have missed you," he said as he took large strides toward me, pulling his suit jacket off and I just giggled. Chris appeared in front of me within seconds and he dropped his jacket on the couch behind me carelessly. "I missed you too," I managed to voice out before his hands came to hold both of my cheeks. I had no time
