Ivanna

I waited all afternoon for Christian. Even though he replied that he would be coming soon. It seemed to be too late. He made sure my health was fine. Or else he would definitely rush out right then.

I keep staring at the door, leaning against the headboard with my pounding heart. I was so confident about it when I message him but gradually fear started building inside my chest.

I'm not afraid of what Adrian said. He can't do anything against Christian, I believe and I hope soon his misunderstanding will break.

I come out of my thoughts as Christian steps into the room, passing me an exhausted smile.

I squirm, scanning him at a glance. He looks so tired today again! How am I gonna say these things?

"Hey, gorgeous," he reaches me and leans down, capturing my lips into a short-sweet kiss. His forehead touches mine which I find kinda cute every time. "I missed you so much"

    Ivanna I feel a lump in my throat, making it hard for me to utter something. His cold ruddy gaze dart on me like a hazard. As I strive to speak up for myself, he yanks my arm, pulling me up from the bed and grabs my both arms tightly, pulling me closer to him. My body becomes completely numb in fear and anticipation. "Chr— Chris. What are you—" my voice trembles."I— what?" His groan again snatches the courage from me to speak. It's not that I can't argue back for myself but when we get such a reaction from a person who hardly becomes this much harsh with us, the feeling is beyond explaining. "You trust him so much? So much that you think he can't do anything. Where was your trust when I continuously said I love you? Where was your trust when I repeated every time that there had been no one in my life except you? Where was your fucking trust?" He yelled at the top of his lungs, shuddering me from the core.I can explain.I have explanations.

    IvannaI wipe my tears off and strive to get up, walking towards the bed with lazy steps. My body feels so weak suddenly. I can't cry so much, always end up losing all my strength due to crying.Falling on my stomach, I lie on the couch. His voice is still buzzing inside my head.How could he? I'm still hoping it will be a nightmare because I can't take it. He has never been so rude to me before when we used to have serious issues. He has always been understanding. I never needed to explain. My burning eyes go across the wall at the large photograph of us."You wanted me to trust you without any explanation. What's wrong with it if I wanted the same? I could yell and explain why I was arguing with you about it. But I don't know why you showed me this today. A completely different you that I never wanted"I cry out again, stuffing my face into the pillow. My heart aches, angering me even more. I pull myself back and walk to my desk, wiping my

    Christian I throw my head back, frustration consuming me from the core. From the moment I got to know that fucking bastard has been trapping my woman from the very beginning, it freaked me out. How could I never understand this? I don't know what else he told her and she must have believed. She still believes that he can't forget the guy and now for her, it's Adrian. It aches straight to my heart. I never lost my sanity like this. When I got to know that the bastard was pretending to be me, I lost it. "Christian!" Kane exclaims. "I— I can't understand what you're saying" Gawking at the open sky above the surface, I go back to the lane of memories. The night. That night in Texas club. "You remember the last time I returned from California to Texas after four years," I utter. "Yeah. After Master Adam's death, you stayed back in California," he adds. The flashes hit my sanity. It was the last night in Texas for me regarding a business t

    ChristianA thick drop of tear streamed down her fluffy cheek and she immediately wiped it off. Her eyes came upon me soon as I tucked her hair behind her ear. Was it the hangover that was making me do so or the unusual attraction I felt towards her? Tears welled up the bank of her eyes, glistening like pearls in the dark light. I didn't know why I felt like her tears were the most precious things in this world. I didn't want her to cry. Dragging myself along with the stool, I decreased the gap between us and gently placed my thumb under her eyes, wiping the tears off.She gawked at me with her big anticipated eyes. "You know what. We shouldn't wait for someone to choose us. Choose yourself. Love yourself," I smiled."I have been doing this for twelve years," her voice cracked as she looked down again.Twelve years!Even though I was dealing with misery for twelve years. Why was it so freaking relatable?"It's easy to say LOVE YO

My breath caught but I was still holding my sanity in place. "Iv— Ivanna Rozario?" I whispered in disbelief. "Yup," she winked. "Isn't my name sweet? My mom chose it for me. But she's no more"She giggled and immediately stopped smiling. Joy overloaded me, cramming inside my chest. I didn't know how to react, what to say, what to do. My girl. She was freaking my girl. "What's your mom's name?" I wanted to be sure. Completely sure that she was my Ivanna. She seemed not to be hearing me since she was struggling with the hangover, leaning in my arms. Soon, I felt her shaking in my arms, my shirt getting drenched with her teardrops. "Hey. What— what happened?" I panicked, tightening my grip around h

My nose touched hers, delivering shivers all over me.She gasped for air, closed her eyes and whispered."I— I never— k— kissed some— someone like this," her voice hardly supported her."Neither did I," I chuckled, slowly placing my thumb on her fluffy lips.She closed her eyes again, sensation catching her breath. Was it going too fast?No!It had already been years."What if I don't wanna," she drops her gaze."Then it's fine," I said lovingly, brushing my thumb on her lips.I could feel the tension building inside her body, vibrating against mine.

    Christian It reminds me of reality. Yes, we just had a few hours. And I just made her the girlfriend for a night. The freaking reality hit me. "We still have some hours left," I sighed and looked at the watch with my blurry vision. Not much. And my head aches in a terrible way. I didn't wanna pass out keeping her alone. I also found her eyes closing shut. Maybe, it was the end of this beautiful night with her. I sighed and dipped my fingers into her hair. "Are you feeling dizzy?" I asked. "Umm— yeah," she mumbled. I also felt the same. However, before I passed out I wanted to make sure she could reach back to her place safely. I rolled her down and got up. Then I lifted her in my arms again. My legs were shaking when I headed back to the club. The loud music hit my head

    ChristianHer body shivered as I tucked my fingers into her undergarment, slowly taking her blossom into my mouth as she gasped, throwing her head back. I fondled her other breast gently, playing with her bud against my thumb as she whined in arousal. I had never felt like this in twenty-five years of my life. I never knew how it felt to touch someone like this. Until she crossed my path and made me want her like this, I never knew I could have such sexual desires. However, I hated it that she wasn't speaking to me. I would love her to talk non-stop. My hands and my lips were not settling in only one place. They kept roaming all over her body, skimming through each inch of her skin. She whined, moaned, cried and hissed with my soft kisses and bites. Her weak hands came crawling to the buttons of my shirt as she strived to unbutton it. A failed attempt.I got up on my knees over her and removed the shirt myself, watching her gulping down at me as her drowsy

    JohnGetting married in the 50s isn't that strange anymore. But for me, it was— for a man who believed his marriage would last forever and then believed he would never marry again. I stood before the mirror as Ryan helped other groomsmen with their last fit."You all look pretty handsome. Ready to leave. But I wish Kevin had that time to get a good fit. Your suit sucks!""I feel better anyway", Kevin snarls. I chuckle while fixing my bow tie, watching my sons in their 20s still fighting like toddlers. It's been a blessing for me to have a family which didn't break even after the biggest disaster. And maybe it was because, in our family, it had always been us. Me and my two boys. Their mother wasn't there. The death was just a formality. I didn't really change that much. My boys were happier than ever after she died. It's really mean of me to think that way but it was the truth. They were traumatised because they were kids. As they grew up, I realised they had a better and healthier

My eyes flutter open at his handsome face. No words come out of my mouth. I'm at a loss of words."I know you're shocked! And I'm sorry if I scared you with this sudden—" he doesn't complete, yet keeps his eyes straight into mine. "But I couldn't keep this longer inside me, Tiffany.

If everything goes well, I'll be here in less than three days.John has finished all the preparations in Hong Kong and he's leaving the day after we decided to move in. It all happened so fast but I'm glad that John is recovering. It's been eight months since the tragedy and I know it's gonna take years for him to overcome this.

"Isn't it something to be excited about?" I blurt out. "She's moving in with me. Isn't it amazing? People can't even go past dating and we are really moving in!" I tell her and she smiles wider, sitting in front of my desk."That's true", she says. "I'm just wondering what you would do once you guys announce the marriage!" she laughs but on a serious note, it makes my heart stop for a while.She pauses, looking at me. "Sorry. I should not have said that?"I chuckle. "Nah! Nothing like that. I just spaced out when you talked about marriage""Ah! So, that means you're thinking about it", she leans to the desk.

    Tiffany We stop by the nursery. It's one of the biggest nurseries in the city which I can completely believe by the way it looks. The boys run into the green surrounding and I and Sebastian slowly walk to see the plants. One of the workers accompany us, showing us all the kinds of plants we could use for decor. "I want the real ones", he says as I scan those plants which need no sunlight. They would be perfect for indoors."These are real ones too. These are just indoors", I say, watching his expression change. "But I still don't find the realness in them. You can take these. I'll look for others", he walks away to find his REAL plants as I shake my head at him in disbelief.We load all the plants we have got for the decor and Ryan and Kevin took two small ones to plant in the yard. Even though they won't be staying here, they wish to see it all grown up when they would occasionally visit. After that, we stop by a restaurant to have lunch.
