Earlier, I went to work with Naomi. The same goes for the trip back. I often give Naomi a ride too. Our homes are in the same direction, but Naomi prefers staying in a boarding house rather than an apartment. As for me, I don't know why, but I feel comfortable living in a place like this. Dona, on the other hand, lives in a completely opposite direction, but she always keeps an eye on us no matter where we go.Including today."I want to hitch a ride to Anya's apartment. Yesterday, I bought lots of French fries and sausages in Anya's fridge," she said before leaving this evening. Naomi just shook her head and didn't object. Why would she?Throughout the day, Cedric was as usual. Nothing had changed, except for him slipping notes between my coffee cups. He said he wouldn't comply with my requests. Well, it's just some notes, so I don't care. There's no point in prohibiting him because he'll do it again anyway."When I was on a coffee break, I bumped into Dewa," Dona proudly exclaimed f
My sadness lingered as I sat down at my work desk. Even when I tried to turn on the computer, I still couldn't stop thinking that Krystal would soon replace me. If that happens, what job will I have? Especially with my current condition!I even mentioned that terminating this pregnancy was the best option. My job would be secure, my financial situation would be stable, and Krystal wouldn't replace me so quickly. I've dedicated myself to every task all this time. I don't want everything to just fade away. No. No.So, right now, I'm truly determined. In the past, I had some doubts, weighing the pros and cons, but seeing this situation so clearly in front of me has erased any doubts. I want Krystal to understand that I love my job. Sure, she seemed attentive yesterday, but I don't like it when attention is given just to please me. Then, I might end up being replaced. I don't want that.I'd rather be overwhelmed with numerous orders than presented with a lot of snack jars.I wiped away th
Now? It's different. In fact, most of the chats are initiated by Cedric. I only reply briefly. Besides being lazy, I also limit myself from him. I don't want to get too involved, and I'm afraid that I might waver.I quickly replied to the message.Anya. P: No prob. I'm with Naomi.Then I asked Naomi for a ride. She's always the fastest when I need help. But looking at her response, I felt reluctant to praise Naomi's kindness.Naomi: With my pleasureNaomi's message came in at the same time as a message from Cedric.Cedric. K: If it's not a bother, can I stop by later?I'm surprised. I warned him earlier. Why isn't he listening? He's so persistent. Just as I was about to type a reply to Cedric, Krystal called me. I didn't even realize that she had come into my office and was now standing in front of my desk. I was flustered. Since when has she been here? I didn't even hear her footsteps."Anya, tomorrow I'll join Kelvin. Did you already tell him that I canceled?""I already told him th

Cedric. K: Sorry, Ma'am. Can't take you home. The guests want to go sightseeing. (sad emoji)I had just finished closing the computer screen when I laughed reading Cedric's message. No wonder he wasn't around all afternoon. Oh, maybe he's been busy since lunchtime. When there are guests like this, the front office is always busy. But what makes me think that Cedric falls into the category of good guys is that during lunch, he still managed to ask how I was doing.It was just a simple inquiry, not an interruption, like "Don't forget to eat, Anya." Or, "Please remember, you're pregnant. Take care of your eating habits." Not like that. Cedric's message to me earned its own special place in our chat history."I hope Anya has eaten because I've already had my meal."I scrolled through our previous chat history, and it was all about sharing food or breakfast. Nothing more than that. Even since that fateful night, I haven't received any strange messages from Cedric. We've been interacting as
Cedric truly followed through with what he said. He was waiting for me in the lobby. I didn't want to ask how long he had been waiting; only Dona inquired, but my ears could clearly hear Cedric saying that he hadn't been waiting for too long.I chose to lead the way to my apartment unit on the tenth floor. Once we arrived, we all went inside, and Cedric locked the door. I didn't care. I preferred going into my room and changing clothes, leaving Dona or Naomi to relax in the living room or fight over the remote since Naomi's favorite series was on while Dona's favorite drama was also airing.I wonder why they always act like children?Somehow, I didn't want to linger in my room for long. I quickly removed my makeup, washed my face again, and put on loose clothes. I was already fantasizing about enjoying the beef steik, so I wanted to be in the kitchen as soon as possible.As soon as I opened the bedroom door, the aroma of beef steak drizzled with mushroom sauce filled the room. My stom
"Morning, Ma'am," I greeted politely. I arrived exactly as planned, twenty minutes before Krystal's arrival. When she saw me, she seemed to frown. Is there something wrong? Before even sitting at my desk, I had checked my appearance multiple times. Nothing was wrong, and it seemed perfectly fine."Morning, Anya." Krystal smiled sweetly. I recognized the Christian Dior Rouge lipstick she was wearing; it's her favorite brand. Sometimes, when meetings or gatherings are held at the Washington DC mall, Krystal would pull me aside and we'd visit the store. Some of my collections are from there as well."You look... different," she said again. I didn't know how to respond; my mind was telling me this was a bad sign."Good or not?" I asked softly. Actually, I rarely seek Krystal's opinion because this beautiful woman in front of me always has a way to make the person she's talking to spill everything on their mind.Krystal simply laughed and walked into her office, leaving me feeling weak and
"You seem different."I just give a small smile to Dewa, who hasn't stopped staring at me since I sat in one corner of his café. Finally, the four of us are having lunch together. I couldn't avoid it because Dona was insistent on eating here. More accurately, she missed being with Dewangga.Luckily, Dewa isn't annoyed by Dona's antics."Yeah, Anya looks stunning today. Flawless, right, Nao?" Dona says, giving me a mischievous wink. I know what she means. Fortunately, I have excellent self-control. Otherwise, I would have snatched Dona's favorite French fries by now."Yes! I'm amazed too. Is there something in the air?" Naomi has no shame when it comes to asking such questions in front of Dewa. I don't want her to think that what I'm wearing today is something special to him."Well, I'm having lunch with Dewa, that's why."Ugh, I feel like I want to drown Dona in the pond near the office lobby! Why did she have to emphasize that?"No, it's not that. Anya is always beautiful in my eyes.
I was just about to be hit by a pleasurable wave. A wave I had been waiting for and was sure would be amazing, even though it was just using his hands and tongue. But I admit, Cedric really had a knack for rendering me powerless with just those two parts of his body. What if he entered me with his manhood?No words could describe the ecstasy that was building."Waiting for something?"My breaths were slightly ragged; my face was probably already flushed with passion. Given what I was experiencing in this state of anticipation, I spoke with a pleading tone. "I'm waiting for you to enter me, honey."Through the corner of my eye, I saw Cedric smirk ever so slightly. "So, this is what you get, honey."The sheets I lay on were utterly messed up. My hands clenched again, especially when Cedric's manhood pushed into my womanhood. I couldn't tell if I was too tight or if Cedric was just getting larger.It felt full and tight."H
Slowly but surely, I play with Cedric's penis. Creating wet traces there. Repeatedly. Moving like a child who's given their favorite lollipop. Several times, I also suck on the tip of Cedric's manhood.Feeling how Cedric's taste fills my mouth. The first time I did this, it felt strange. But as time goes on, I've become addicted. Sometimes, I intentionally make Cedric release himself in my mouth.Because I know... our second session is going to be way wilder than the first. That's also why I want to experience it again."Oh, Joice! You're getting really skilled at sucking, babe." Cedric starts to get restless; I can tell. Occasionally, his hand strokes my cheek, sometimes reaching for my hair and holding it in a grip. I think he also doesn't want our activity to be disrupted by my hair. With his other hand, Cedric squeezes my breast, though I can't really feel the squeeze.I guess it's because Cedric is more focused on the core of his body that I'm curren
"Instead of feeling your kiss without being allowed to kiss back, how about using your mouth to unbutton my shirt?" he suggests, and I quickly nod in agreement. Cedric slightly shifts his sitting position to get more comfortable. Then, he resigns himself to what I'm about to do.One by one, I undo the buttons of his black shirt. Just as he asked; using my mouth. I also use my fingertips to gently graze his skin with a deliberate rhythm. On purpose. It's not just him who knows how to raise body temperature with passion. I can do it too.And I won't waste this ability of mine to please him. They say that making your husband happy is one of the things that adds to the joy of married life. Besides, after our lovemaking session later, Cedric won't stop praising me. Who wouldn't be happy to be praised by their own husband?As soon as his shirt buttons are all undone, Cedric's body shape remains unchanged. I guess my husband really takes care of himself with a lot of w
Putting on a soft perfume around the nape of my neck is the final part of my preparation to welcome Cedric. I glance at the clock – it's been ten minutes since he went to the kids' room. Such a fleeting moment to get myself ready. The click of the door makes me stop what I'm doing at the vanity table. I grab the kimono-shaped pajama I casually hung up to greet him.When we come face to face, Cedric looks at me with a furrowed brow."Why... are you in your pajamas? Didn't you check the gift I left for you earlier?"I smile and close the distance between us. I made sure to lock the bedroom door, just in case Zain suddenly opens it or Zennita walks in without permission.I still remember what happened a few years ago when Cedric was right on top of me, but I quickly pushed him away because Zain was at the door. He asked, "What's Papa doing in there?"Since that day, the door hasn't escaped my attention. Even though they've grown up
Having two kids is fun. I believe that. Especially when you have a partner like Cedric, who's always ready and available whenever I need him. Though I can't deny, the fear before childbirth stressed me out big time. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to open my eyes and greet Zain and Cedric anymore. Also, my other family members: Krystal, Dona, Naomi, and my little brother Jacob.Our relationship is getting better and, well... the past is truly behind us. Even if I wanted to bring it up, there's nothing I can do now except accept it. Sometimes, with Cedric by my side, I visit Mother's grave. The nagging questions in my heart about why she left me when I was a child have lessened."Mommy!"I close my eyes briefly. The voice of Zennita, my youngest daughter, fills the kitchen. Her face is flushed with annoyance. Clearly, Zain is right behind her, chasing her with a superhero mask on. Zennita is now 5 years old – an age that demands a lot of my energy to keep u
a few years later"Hey, Champ. What are you up to?"My movement playing Mario Bros paused. I looked up briefly and saw a man in a black shirt. He looked well-dressed and quite classy. Who is he?"Playing a game, sir."He chuckled. Confusing me. Was something wrong?"Do I look like a 'sir' to you?"I grinned and blushed a bit. "Not really.""Well, don't call me 'sir' then. I'm too old for that."We both ended up laughing. He seemed like a nice and friendly person. I was still in my gray school uniform, suddenly feeling quite impressed. Who was he?"You must be Andrew, right?"Oh... I became cautious. Did he know me? Where from? I felt like I had never met this man before. It couldn't be that at my age I was getting kidnapped, right? Thank goodness Dad had me take self-defense classes. At least I could escape if he suddenly acted suspiciously. But I had to punch his fairly handsome face first."I'm Nelson. Yo
I thoroughly enjoy the attention of my two mothers at home. Mommy and Mami Keira. The house is bustling with activity now. Every weekend, Mommy pays a visit. She cooks together with Mami Keira, although I know they both try to become close to each other. Andrew says Mommy doesn't want to miss an opportunity to accompany her beloved daughter-in-law. On the other hand, Mami Keira adds, "Keep me company, Soffia. Take care of Andrew and Krystal. They're both so busy. I'm all alone."Clearly, this makes my husband even more elated. He says, "There's nothing that brings me more happiness than having both my mother’s here. I love them."Then... which part of my heart doesn't belong to him? I'm reminded of what Grandpa Jordy said that day."One day you'll understand why Grandpa wanted you to be Andrew's partner."Grandpa was right. He was a good man. Very good, actually. How respectful he was toward the two women often present in the house. He held them in
I don't know why I'm going through my days with such enthusiasm. Despite the doctor's frequent warnings for me to be more careful. To me, it seems exaggerated. All the meetings and encounters with new business partners, all sabotaged by Cedric without exception. I'm truly fine with that, and I'm only learning how my brother reaches a consensus.Truly, Cedric is the one who should be in control of BlaxtonExpress.Three months have passed since that incident. Several times, I've accompanied Andrew to the intense hearings because Phillip won't give up easily. He's put in every effort, which is dragging Daddy Jackson further into it. My husband predicted this. Entrapping Phillip wasn't merely about presenting evidence, but also about strategy.Andrew is clever at fending off Phillip's arguments and promptly presenting the additional evidence demanded until the older man loses. Truly loses. Daddy Jackson, on the other hand, never complicates the course of the trial.
It's been three days, and Andrew still hasn't opened his eyes. In contrast, Jacob has regained consciousness and is already in the recovery phase. He mentioned that he doesn't like lying down for too long, even though Jacob's condition is just as concerning. Two bullets lodged in his body. I can't express enough how grateful we are or how real the power of God feels in this situation.Besides his back, the bullets also hit Jacob's shoulder. His body is covered in bandages, there are bruises on his face, but he's already up and about in the hospital. He's doing this not just for me, even though it's unnecessary. Andrew's trusted men are taking turns to watch over him. I earnestly ask Jacob to focus more on his own recovery.And my words are only heard when my brother speaks. Looking defeated, he retreats to his room after expressing his anger and cursing Doni, of course."If that bastard doesn't end up in jail for a long time, I'll personally take care of him, Mr
