Thea

Ivanna is too innocent to be true. Whether she's super innocent or super fake. Well, she has every fucking thing any woman can dream of. Why would she need more entertainment in life? Maybe, this is the reason they are smitten with each other. It's gonna give me a hard time creating a crack between them.

I go back to the dance area and enjoy myself instead of wasting my entire time on her. I take the fourth shot and I know it's not gonna make me high enough. The hangover will be gone in a few minutes. After all, I'm a pro at tasting different shots.

A guy approaches me, showing off his body to please me but my vision goes a bit blurry. I never really approach strippers but this time I don't see a random guy in front of me anymore. It's Christian. I touch his hard masculine body and trace my hands up around him in sensation.

My blurry gaze finds its way to his handsome smirk as he stares down at me. I have been craving for his intense gaze to be on me, only and only on me. Fina

    ChristianI didn't really expect to discover what I'm seeing now. Without delaying another second, I rush in the direction of Thea walking Ivanna towards me. Ivanna's eyes are closed and she can't even walk on her own. Is she drunk? I reach them right away and clasp Ivanna's arm, pulling her towards me. She falls on my chest heavily, dropping all the weight upon me. "What happened to her?" I exclaim, drifting my gaze at Thea. She stutters a bit and passes me a tight-lipped smile. "She drank too much. I tried to stop her but she didn't hear me", Thea says.I can't believe she drank so much on her own at this moment. Or maybe, she went with the flow. I don't know her state of mind. I look down at Ivanna breathing heavily against my chest, her face completely covered with her messy hair. I slowly remove them, tugging behind her ear. Her lips slightly shiver as she's ranting something."I don't— want to—", that's what I can hear from her rants and frown at her."Don't want? What? What

    ChristianFollowing her broken instructions, we come to the terrace, running.Yeah. Running. She asked me to run the next ten steps. And I'm huffing already. Rushing faster, I fall on our ground bed as she bursts into laughter underneath me. I wrap my arms around her tightly while laughing with her. Her face brushes against the bed first, and then she turns around, facing me. Deep eye contact occurs between us. I settle myself properly on top of her as she tangles her legs around me again. She cups my face and tilts her head, smiling lovingly as if she's adoring me with her beautiful eyes as I'm doing to her.She looks so breathtakingly beautiful while smiling her heart out."Hey, handsome", she snickers, her face glowing under moonlight. "Hey, gorgeous", I smile back, nuzzling her cheek."I love you", she encircles her lips as an invisible kiss, making me fall in love with her gestures more and more. "I love you more", I whisper, touching my nose with hers."No. I love you more",

    IvannaThea! Why would she come so early in the morning? I'm already anxious about last night since I barely remember anything that happened at the party, especially after the last drink. And I'm not having a good feeling about it. How did Christian show up there? Did anyone call him or did he come himself? God! I swallow down the food and drink the entire glass of chilled water when Christian leaves the chair."Let me check", he walks towards me and grabs my head, leaning down and kissing my forehead in such a casual way that it makes me smile blissfully. "Don't come there before finishing breakfast, okay?"I nod. Christian strides to the living room. I don't think I can swallow even a grain when Christian would be talking to Thea. Thea"Good morning", Christian comes to the living room as I drift my eyes towards him. He's wearing a black t-shirt and trousers, his robust body curved against the fabric, making my stomach twitch in sensation. Why does this man look so terrific eve

    IvannaThe way Christian shoves my hand away has me shaken on the spot. Anticipation streams through my veins as I gawk up at him helplessly. He indeed looks angry and disappointed when he lifts his eyes at me. I lose my voice to speak and stutter instead, "Chris, I— I really don't— don't know how this happened—"He says nothing and holds my cheek with his firm palm. "Did I ask for your explanation, Iv?" His voice is hoarse. I shake my head on the verge of crying. I don't know what's going on inside him, what's he thinking about me. Is he too angry? He should be. Just a minute ago, I couldn't tolerate Thea being so close to them. What he saw was more terrible than this. However, I hope he'll understand me."But I can— can explain", my voice shakes as I look straight into his eyes. "But I don't need it", he gasps and looks down. "I know you were drunk. It was too obvious. You didn't even recognise me properly last night. It's fine"He tells me but I still can't be convinced. His eyes

    ChristianThe day has passed rapidly. It's dark all around when I reach the villa, exhausted and loaded with a bunch of thoughts about Chrisanna's treatment. I didn't waste all those hours I spent outside. I have been talking to all the specialists who can help me with the best in this case. And they have assured me to keep their work on finding a suitable donor for Chrisanna. I'm yet to talk to Ivanna about this. But I don't know why I'm unable to find a chance to talk to her. Right now, it's again impossible. I climb the stairs with lazy steps and reach the door. Holding the knob, I wait and inhale deeply, hoping Ivanna won't talk about the matter again. She needs to understand me as I understand her. I can't be so freaking normal and act as if nothing happened. Letting out a deep sigh, I twist the knob and step inside. Chrisanna has slept after taking her medicines. There's no one else in the room. Scooting my eyes upon her, I walk toward the bed and sit at the edge. I caress h

    ChristianIt's dawn. The sun has just risen and I have come to the park nearby with the hope to find Thea. I would not prefer settling a meeting with her anyway. So, calling her and asking to meet will be something way more than necessary. When I was leaving the villa, Ivanna was sleeping. I still can't process things she said and at some point, I believed her. Even if she was drunk, I could clearly see that she was trying to be as honest as possible. If Thea is the one to force her into all this, I don't know how I'm gonna react to her. I inhale the morning breeze and look around the park, and people jog and meditate. I need to finally talk to Ivanna about Chrissie's matter."Indeed another coincidence today?" Thea's voice comes as I look at my right side, spotting her jog closer to me.She has a playful smile on her face as always. I can't understand this woman. She's way too mysterious to handle. It seems like she's doing a lot of things but I can't see it. But why would she eve

    Christian"Where have you been?" Ivanna clamours, rushing out of the balcony, her eyes blazing at me. It seems like she has been looking for me for a while now. I pass her a half smile as she gets closer and hugs me as tightly as possible. I hug her back, digging my face into her neck, inhaling her comforting scent. I still can't function in my brain after what Thea said about her.Every single person who knows Ivanna never uttered a single bad word about her. People love her, admire her and definitely cherish her. She has always been so loving to everyone that I doubt if she ever did something to freak out anyone. In fact, after everything Thea did to her, she never uttered a single bad word about her. Then why? And from where did Thea get so much frustration regarding her?I just want to create a better place for Ivanna. And if Thea keeps bothering her, I don't know how I'm gonna tackle it along with my profession.Ivanna rubs her cheek against my chest as I nuzzle her hair gently

    Thea"Thea, stop!" Tiffany screams. "Please stop"My head is on the verge of exploding, and anger is throbbing inside me. I'm feeling like all my veins are gonna burst out if I don't vent out. I keep throwing all the stuff around the room. The vases, the sculptures, all the damn stuff around. Everything. I throw some against the wall and some on the mirror. I can hear the exploding noise but it doesn't calm me down. My wrath increases with every fucking second. "Thea, please. Stop. Stop before John shows up. What are you gonna tell him?" She seethes.I groan, slamming myself on the bed and grabbing the edge tight. My heart is pounding against my chest. My entire body keeps getting hotter and hotter. "How dare he! How dare he insult me again?" I grunt under my breath, recalling that shitty scenario when he behaved so rudely to me. It was so fucking humiliating.No one. No one ever insulted me the way that he did. "So, just move on from him, no?" Tiffany gasps. "Why are you even aft

    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

    TiffanyI can't figure out how to react and what it's all about because I don't wanna assume anything unreasonable. He's on his knees with a damn ring.It means— God! I can't— comprehend it. 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. I had known a long time ago that I needed you in my life. Forever! And I'm not scared to ask you that—"With that pause, my heartbeat stops and my entire body shivers when I wait for him to complete."Will you marry me?" I feel goosebumps littering all over me with those words. Did he really ask me for marriage? It takes me a while to process. His eyes are full of fear and hope and I'm left in shock. Never in my wildest dreams, I had imagined he would propose to me. I hear some people around cheering up and root

    TiffanyTime indeed flies like air and it happened in my case in a better way. In the best way, actually. I started my job in the daycare centre with all the lovely kids around which made my life less monotonous after Ryan and Kevin left. They are doing good in their new school and John has also settled into his new office over there. I and Sebastian balanced our life beautifully, supporting each other. As days and weeks passed, our love grew stronger. Among everything, I was happy with the fact that I have my identity now. A good identity.

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. I'm happy for him but I would be happier if there was any chance that he finds someone to love him as much as all of us found a person to love.It sucks and I hate the fact that all his life he never found someone like that.I and Sebastian carry the portrayal I had in my room for years. It's a huge one and Sebastian suggested we should place it in the living room because it's beautiful.

    Sebastian"Really, Sebastian? I have never seen you this excited before", Georgia says as I show her some themes I'm confused with and I end up telling her the whole plan. "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. I scratch the back of my head with an awkward smile. "I could marry her the moment I saw her! But hell! I'm not repeating any mistakes from the past.

    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.
