"Vivoreeee!!!!"
Crisa screamed as she run straight to Vivs couch in her condo. She didn't even bother removing her shoes! She stopped when Vivs was now in front of her.
"What?" Vivs asked irritatedly.
She seemed to notice Vivs annoyed look so her excitement slowly fade away.
"Why do you look like that?"
She asked as she sit right next to her. Vivs sighed as an answer.
"Why were you screaming while barging inside my house?"
Her smile returned to it's place. She showed her phone's screen to let Vivs see it. There was a picture of her and Luther at the cover page. She clicked the news and read it. Her eyes widened.
It was a news of her, "dating" Luther Greyson of The Cosmic Beauty! A statement was made by a "staff" from Vivs company that she saw them kissing and hugging! It was obviously her manager! A picture of them hugging was attached at the end of the news!!
"Fudge..."
She returned her gaze to Crisa who w*s so excited to hear her answer. She w* biting her lower lip preventing herself to smile even more!
"So...?"
Vivs eyes suddenly turned dark as she think of her manager. She was glaring at the wall! She made a wrong decision of having that "woman" as her manager!!
"Hey!!"
Crisa snapped at Vivs face to catch her attention.
"When was this picture taken????"
"A week ago, at my photoshoot..." she answered as she grab a fistful of hair.
She laid down half of her body on the couch and spaced out.
"What do I do?"
"What do you mean?!!! Isn't it a good news?!!!" Crisa excitedly asked. "You..." while pointing at Vivs, "dating a billionaire CEO?!!! My gosh!!! You're so lucky!!!"
"We're not dating!!!" Vivs denied angrily. "It's just that----"
She stopped as she suddenly felt something going in circles inside her stomach. She placed her hand on her tummy and the other on her mouth as she run to the bathroom. Crisa followed her with a worried face.
When Vivs went inside the bathroom, she immediately threw up continuously. Crisa waited for her finish and when Vivs was done, she crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows.
She went near Vivs and touched her neck at the back of her palm to feel if Vivs has a fever. She felt nothing so she frowned at her.
"Tell me..." she turned serious
"W- What?" Vivs stuttered because she felt nervous.
"Have you lost your virginity?!"
"N- No!!!!" she denied outrageously as she walk outside.
Crisa just followed her and both returned to the couch.
"Don't tell me you're pregnant!!!!"
Vivs glared at Crisa making her shut her mouth. She was also worried about it. She's been experiencing morning sickness for three consecutive days. It's possible but she doesn't want to think like that.
"Since when was it going on?"
Her expression softened, "It's been three days."
Crisa suddenly stood up and run outside. Vivs wanted to follow her but she felt like she need to vomit again so she instead went towards the bathroom. When she was done, Crisa still didn't come back. She decided to just wait for her since she doesn't know wher she went.
After thirty minutes of waiting, Crisa finally came back. She handed a paper pouch. Vivs forehead creased as she open it. She took it out and asked Crisa.
"What's this for?"
She was holding a pregnancy test. That's what Crisa bought from a drug store that took her thirty minutes!!! Crisa sat down while catching her breath.
"We need to be sure!"
She hesitated for a second but also decided to do it. It's better to be sure. She went to the bathroom to do it. Before she look at the result, she prayed that it would be negative. She prayed and prayed but it didn't come true.
"What the result?"
Crisa asked while staying outside. She was devastated when she went out of the bathroom. By seeing her reaction, Crisa knew what the result was.
"So who's the father?"
Vivs couldn't look at her in the eyes as she answer.
"I- It's..." she stuttered, she sighed. "It's Luther"
"What?!!!!!"
Excitement flashed in Crisa's tone of scream. Vivs was more surprised by her tone that her scream.
"Why do you sound so happy?" Vivs curiously asked.
Crisa returned her face to serious one after clearing her throat. They went back to the living room and sat on the couch, again.
"So what's your plan?"
Vivs shrugged her shoulders. She picked up a couch pillow and placed it on her lap and rested her head on it.
She's thinking about her decision. She always wanted to have a small yet happy family. But she also dreamed about being on top of her career and right now, she's on the way. If she stop right now, she might not be able to walk on the same path again. And if she don't, her dream of having a family might not come true. In this case, it's not only her life who's at stake on her decision. The child's future also comes at stake.
"Maybe you should talk to him first," Crisa suggested.
She just nodded without saying a word.
********************************
Vivs suddenly rang in the middle of the night that wake her up. She looked t the time and it's 11:18. She was so sleepy so she didn't look at the name of the caller.
"Hello?" she aske in a sleepy tone.
"Did I wake you up?" a man's voice said.
Vivs forehead creased before she look at the screen. It was Luther who called her.
"What do you think the time is?" she asked with annoyance visible in her tone. "Of course, you woke me up."
"Easy, lady," Luther calmly said while sitting on his bed, in his room, in his house.
"Just tell me what you want."
"Go home tommorow, you'll a news to hear."
"News?"
"Yes, so continue your sleep now, baby." he said as he lay down on his bed. "Good night."
His last statement before ending the call made Vivoree confused for a moment. It didn't last long since she's so sleepy, she doesn't have the energy to think about it, so she just went back to sleep.
**************************************
"What news does he mean?" Vivoree asked herself while looking at the mirror.
She's done getting ready to go to her parents house. She looked at her tummy and touched it with her palm.
"There's a baby growing inside my tummy," she thought to herself.
Before officialy leaving, she locked the door and went straight to the elevator. When she arrived on the groundfloor, she went inside the cab she booked.
While on the way, she keeps thinking about how Luther knows about the news she'll be hearing. Her parents oly texted her when she woke up.
"W- What are you d- doing here?" Vivs stuttered.She was surprised the moment she stepped into her parents house. Why? Because Luther was there. The person she wasn't expecting at all was here. That answer her question earlier on how he had known about the "news".He was sitting on a single couch, opposite to where her parents was sitting. He was looking at her while smiling sweetly. His head resting in her interlocked fingers on tap of her lap.Vivs looked at her parents who was also smiling at her."What's the meaning of this?" she asked as she continue walking to the couch. She sat on the single couch beside Luther."Why are you here?" she whispered."I told you, there's a news
"So what did you say?" Clea excitedly asked.Vivoree rolled her eyes when she noticed how excited Clea is. She looked outside to think about what really happened.*********************************************"I don't--" Vivoree cut him off."See, you don't even----""--see myself without you..."His way of saying those words made her shut up for a moment. They stared with each other for a moment before Vivs decided to tear her gaze from him. Things became awkward for Vivs but not for Luther.How can he say th
"Y- You mean…" Vivoree stuttered while pointing at Luther."Yeah, I live here" he uttered in a confuse tone."You live here?" she asked again, "W- Why?!!"He stopped what he was doing and faced her, his brows almost touching each other."What do you mean why?" he asked."W- Why are you here? Since when??! Where?!!" she hysterically asked as if she'll loose her mind any moment now."I live in a condo above your unit and I moved in just last week," he answered truthfully."Ehh?!!!"
Luther was busy washing the dishes when Vivoree went inside her room. He didn't follow her as it was invading her privacy and he was not finish on what he was doing. After washing the dishes, he cleaned the table and washed his hand before going to the living room. After sitting on the couch, his phone rang. It was a call from his secretary."Good morning, sir" the secretary on the other line greeted."Good morning," he coldly replied."Mr. Fuentabelia canceled you meeting at three pm and wanted to move it on friday, at five in the afternoon if it was okay with you."He nodded although his secretary won't see it."I already checked your schedule
[Do you need anything? Milk? Vitamins?]"I told you, I'm fine Clea," she tried convincing her many times but Clea won't just listen. "Just calm down, okay…"[How can I calm down? You fainted for Pete's sake!!]She rolled her eyes and sighed. She really needs to accept the fact that she has an overreacting friend. She'll have to stay and stick with her.[A- are you okay now?]"Uhm- hmm" she hummed while nodding, though Clea won't see it.[Maybe you should consult a doctor] she sounded worried now. [I'll call someone from my mommy's friends, so----]
"Do you w- want to come w- with me?" she asked."S- sure," he answered, still avoiding her gaze. "I'll drive."Viv just nodded and stepped out of her unit and locked her unit's door. He waited for her until she's done. He just stayed and followed her from behind when she started walking. They were so quiet even when they reach the parking lot. He opened the door of the seat beside the driver's seat for Vivs. She smiled at him upon entering his car.She immediately opened her bag and took out two pieces of black masks. She always brings masks since she's the topic of the media nowadays. Thing will get hard if she's caught specially when Luther's around.When Luther entered the car, he starte
Vivs woke up hugging Luther. Luther didn't come home to his own condo after returning from the mall. Luther was still talking to someone so Vivs went to sleep first. When the call ended, he laid down beside and hugged her before falling a sleep.Vivs tried to move but Luther just hugged her even tighter as if he didn't want to let her go. She chuckled a bit before hugging him back."Don't you have a meeting? "Vivs reminded him.Luther even tightened his grip."Just five more minutes," he said."Come on, we all know that that's a lie," Vivs said.After a couple of minutes, they finally decided to ge
"W- What?!!" Luther smiled even wider, " I asked you if you are jealous…" he repeated. She looked up to avoid his gaze that makes her feel nervous. "N- No!" she denied. He smirked and suddenly kissed her while his eyes are closed. Vivs eyes widened by his sudden action. She’s shocked and wants to move away but her body is not acting the ways she wants it to move. He stopped kissing her and hugged her. Her expression was still the same. She looked around and noticed some customers and sales man and ladies looking at them. "You don't have to be jealous," he said while tightening his hug a bit, "I was yours, am yours, and will
Flowers spread on the floor, guests clapping at the sight of someone wearing an elegantly woven wedding dress. It looked like a dream but it wasn't. Vivian slowly makes her way to the aisle. People are smiling widely at her but her attention is only for the man in front waiting for her to come. When she's finally there, she placed her arm in his arms and let him slowly drag her to the center of the stage. It was a garden wedding where only close relatives of Luther and Vivian were invited. It was held a month after the incident. Luther grabbed Vivian and tried to shake her to make her come back to her senses. When she did, Trevor also went to her. Luther quickly went to him and punched him as hard as he could. "She's not your soulmate, you son of a bitch!" Trevor's bloody face did not affect him. Trevor felt hopeless that time. He saw Kisha run aways but was also caught right away. He finally realized that people don't really get everything they want in this lifetime. Trying to g
"Luther!" Kisha Lockesmith screamed at the top of her lungs making him jump out of his swivel chair."What the hell?!" he roared like a wolf because of her inappropriate action.She couldn't understand why she yelled as she was still catching her breath. She ran from the elevator to his office which has quite a distance away. "Calm down, will you?" he stated while watching her.When she did, what she told him shook his world."Vivian was kidnapped!" His heart hammered his chest and a certain feeling from his stomach started arising again. He felt nervous and at the same time felt like he already knew who did it."They were at the designer's studio when something exploded," she started explaining while walking towards his table. "It started a fire but the rescuers were only able to rescue Crisa and the staff. Vivian was nowhere to be found.""The designer?" he asked while messaging someone with his trembling hands.She had never seen him like this before. Normally, he would stay calm
Everything has been running smoothly these past few days and for Vivian, it feels so strange. She feels like their enemy is just around the corner and is just waiting for the perfect timing to ruin their happiness."You look so heavenly!!" Crisa exclaimed after seeing me try on the wedding dress I picked. It took the designer at least one and a half months to finish it. They had to finish this first as it's a request from their valued vip customer, which is Luther. The gown has a laced see through sleeves that end only at her shoulder point. It's like a ball gown with a long silhouette. The top part of it has a sweetheart neckline that perfectly shows her collar bones and her full bust while the lower part feels like a princess type of dress. Leaves and flowers are embroidered from its neckline to its waist to add design for the dress. Her veil will be placed with a crown-like hair dress accessory.She specifically asked the dress to fit her without needing corsets, after all her bo
Vivian tried going back to the way she has been living her life. She went back to work for the projects she can still do while her womb hasn't developed yet. She rejected daring projects with respect to her future husband. Because of the controversy their relationship made online and to the media, paparazzis and reporters would not leave their side. Everytime she goes to work, reporters would flock around her, making her lose a lot of time just by getting in her van. She was still traumatized, yes. She would spend her sleepless night trying to forget that night. She would either spend time choosing a gown, browsing contracts or painting. It was her long lost hobby. She was not the best at it but Luther would always indulge her with compliments. "You better have that in our upcoming auction," Luther said one day after he got home.Vivs laughed. "Oh, please! It's not even that good!"They both looked at the painting Vivs just finished. At first, it would look like a field of roses w
Vivs' release day is finally coming and Vivs was ecstatic about it. She was so excited that night. She packed everything that she used that weren't the hospital's things. She was humming until she heard her room's door.She thought it was Luther but she was wrong. Luther was still in his office so it was impossible for it to be him.Her smile faded when she saw who it was. She tried to remain composed. She hid her nervousness and trembling hands from the man that just came.She put on the mask of a girl with a bright smile. A smile like nothing happened. A smile that can make anyone believe that she doesn't remember anything."Who…?""Hi, Vivoree," he greeted her with a sweet smile but for Vivs, it was rather creepy. "I heard that you regained your memory."The man started walking slowly until he reached the sofa. "O-Oh! It's true!" she said. "I regained some…"She heaved a deep breathe to ease the tension she's feeling."Are you an acquaintance?" Vivs asked. "Acquaintance?" the jaw
Rea went into the room Vivs went to as soon as she heard Vivs’ scream. She gasped because of shock when she saw her lying down on the floor. Her hands shook as she tries to wake Vivs. Vivs was still unconscious so she yelled for help and other employees in Vivs parents' residence offered help. They brought Vivs to the nearby hospital and called Vivs' parents. Rea quickly called Luther who was shocked by the news.Luther who was in a board meeting hurriedly ran out and went to his office to get his things. Rea mentioned the name of the hospital so he went straight there. The doctors were everywhere because a VIP had arrived. When things calmed down, they were able to have a peaceful talk with the doctor.“Why is she in this state Doc?” Vivs mother asked the same Doctor who took care of Vivs two years ago.“Don’t tell me she is going to lose her memories again?” Luther’s voice was full of worry.The doctor shook his head. “It is possible that her memories are going to go back since she
“Clea.”I called my best friend's name nervously. She kept on glaring at me ever since I came.“I- I was just…” I tried explaining but I know it’s no use. I encircled my arms on her arm and placed my head on her shoulder.“Why don’t you just accompany me to a wedding boutique?”I felt her look at me but I didn’t budge. “You can also handle the preparation of my wedding once we have set a wedding date.”I want her to take care of everything for me. She’s my best friend and we promised each other that we will be the one to prepare for each other’s wedding when the time comes. And here we are.“Don’t tell me you won’t fulfill your promise?”“Then you should’ve told me about that first,” she whined. “You know how busy I am these days so I don’t have time to check the news.”“That’s why I’m here,” I said while pointing at myself. “So stop whining and go get dressed. We’ll go see some gowns.”My parents had prepared the list of wedding boutiques we’ll have to go to. Luther wasn’t availabl
He was still not coming. I gave up and just looked around the room. As I look around, I remember the things we did last night. My face heated so I hid under my blanket. What happened last night was… unexpected but was so… Erase!! Erase!!"Love?" I suddenly heard Luther's voice so I took a peak at him."W- What?" I don't know why I stuttered.He was wearing a thin white t-shirt that's why his body can still be seen. He's also wearing a knee size shorts.He chuckled, probably beacuse of what I look like. He walked towards me and sat beside me. I feel like I was too red so I couldn't get my face out of the blanket.He suddenly kissed my forehead and laid down beside me. He hugged me so I'm very sure that he can feel that I'm still naked. My face heated even more.Just thinking that what happened last night might happen again is so…My gosh, Vivs!!!"I love you," he said."I love you too…" I replied.We were quiet for sometime so I decided to hug him back. I closed my eyes to feel the w
Warning: Matured Content Ahead."What are you doing here?" I asked Luther when he visited the shooting set.I'm currently filming a commercial for his company. It's a good thing that the engagement thingy was able to make my dad agree to me modeling. Luther really did take care of it."It's my company, baby…" My face heated up when he called me that in front of everyone."I told you not to call me that, especially when we're outside!" I whispered and held his hand before sitting on a bench."Are you busy?" he asked before giving me a burger."Yup, I have a schedule later," I uttered before taking a bite, "I still have to go to a restaurant to have a meeting with Mr. Ferrer.""Only the two of you?"His question made me stop eating. I looked at him and slightly laughed."Why?" I asked, "Are you jealous?""What if I am?," he was so straight forward!"Don't worry, his assistant will be there," I assured him before eating again."Good."Time went by so fast. It was already nine pm when I
