A/n: Enjoy reading! 💕
A LetterIT'S BEEN two weeks since Rebeka, Uncle Arthur, and I met. And since then, my chest has seemed lighter. I felt real joy in my heart.I have been visiting them once in a while in the new house I bought. I support them- financially. I also shoulder my uncle's therapists for his complete recovery.As I watched a movie, I learned something about the word 'One More Chance'; It sounds like, do not hesitate to give second chances to the people we love. Forgiving and forgetting are the only ways to ease the pain.Rebeka was sincere in apologizing. They are just a family I have right now. So, maybe I quickly forgave them. Especially Uncle Arthur.I sighed as I remembered Magnus. Fortunately, he hasn't bothered me since our last conversation at the hospital. I'm more focused on avoiding him now, whether in a call or text.Maybe, that person is also busy because he does not appear again.A text message popped up for me as I entered the office. I'm coming out later from the conference roo
StuckMagnus entered the kitchen. He was back carrying a spoon and fork, as well as a saucer. He opened the cake box. I read the small but all big letter written there, 'SORRY'. He looked at me, but I just lifted him with eyebrows."Sorry if I was too busy these past few days, babe. I'm sorry if I don't visit often and I'm sorry for all my mistakes with you,""Too hokey! Is that all you came here today?""It's okay even if I'm hokey, and at least, I'm saying the truth. Even if it irritates you, I will still beg again and again. Even if I'm embarrassed, it's okay because I'm used to it. Even if you always busted me, it's okay, as long as I will not give up. Even if you push me, I still won't give up. My Mrs. Tamara Palmer Wellington... I love you, my heart loves you so much. You can ask me anything, just don't ask me to stay away from you, because that's what I don't want to follow,""The length of your words!""I love you so much. That's really how I love you," he even winked at me."E
CummingI DID not hesitate to respond to the kiss by Magnus. He was really the same as before, a good kisser and still very good at seducing me. He still can activate the heat in every fiber of my body.He stopped kissing me, and I slowly opened my eyes. He cupped my face with his hands and looked straight into my eyes."Tamara," his breath gently fanned my face. “I will pursue it but not because it is the only I want from you. I do it because I want to, not because you are still my wife and I still have a right to you,”I gulped at what Magnus said.“I will do it because my heart wants it. Baby, I love you. I know it's hard for you to believe in me again.”Gradually my defense crumbled while looking and listening to him.“Babe, I’ll understand if you want me to stop right now. But please, let me try it. Feel me again, baby. Just stop me if you’re not yet ready.” Then he kissed me again, seductively.I closed my eyes and relished the warmth of his lips. I didn’t stop him. I let him dee
Be Right Back “I WON’T leave you,” Magnus said and lay beside me.I immediately covered my body with the blanket and then I turned away. “We’re already done pleasuring ourselves. What else do you want from me?” I seriously said while I was turned away from him.I heard his deep sigh. “You’re asking me what I want, hmm?”I swallowed as I felt his bare chest behind me."You," his lips trailed over my bare shoulder. “It was always been you, Tamara. You and me again, wife.” He held my waist, then hugged me."Do you hear what you're saying?" I removed his arms wrapped around my waist. “Do you think I’d still believe you after what you’ve done before?”Magnus was speechless.“I don't want to believe you again, Magnus! I know as well that after all this you will also change again and hurt— ” I suddenly stopped and let out a deep sigh. “You will still fool me later just like before. You have done it twice, and it's enough.”“It’s not my intention before, wife. And I don't at least think right
The New CeoA day and a week have passed since there's happened between us... with Magnus.After that night I always avoided him. When he goes to my office I always hide at the clinic. I didn’t go out there until he left the company. At home, I always tell to Bianca to cover that I am not home. I even blocked his mobile number on my phone so he can't contact me anytime.I'm so worried about Margot's situation that and disappeared. Then now, here he is, Magnus, messing with my life, while Felix was also worried about his wife’s whereabouts. Still, nothing is leading to where Margot is.I just wonder, sometimes, I just think of it. That the time when I get away, is Magnus like Felix who also went crazy with finding me?Where else am I? I knew he never bothered to find a way to know where I was. Maybe so, he even enjoyed his free life while I was miserable, especially when I lose my child... our child.I just sighed at the thought.Focus, Tamara. You need to work hard now, I told myself w
Jealous[ TAMARA POV. ]WHAT THE heck! Wellington, our new Ceo?I immediately looked up when I heard his full name mentioned by, Mr. Hidalgo, one of the big bosses in this company.Suddenly my heart beat faster. He was really there, seriously standing in front of everyone.Is he really my boss now? Shit! What will happen now? How else can I avoid him if I could feel him around me every single day? I’m in trouble now. I’m really in trouble.He looked exactly like a boss, standing there formidably. There is no denying his superiority over all of us. And looking at him was a bit intimidating.“Good afternoon, everyone. Since Mr. Enriquez isn’t here to officially turn over his position to me... Well, let me introduce myself alone with all of you.” He looked around at everyone. “I’m Magnus Wellington…” He stopped in my direction. I was even shocked when he caught me staring at him. "The new Ceo of this company."I swallowed hard when he grinned.Oh, no. Never let him make a mistake and let
Don't You DareI REACH for the telephone beside me when it's ringing. "RD DEPARTMENT, hello...""I miss you,"I was struck by what I heard on the other line. "Excuse me?""I love you,"So, it was him again."Is there really nothing you can do with your life? And part are you wasting is my working hours?""I miss you, Tamara. Will you please come over here? I just can't go to your office now I feel bad.""Don't order me and dramatize me," I said irritably. "What else you needed and you are messing with me again?""You. I always need you. The reason I moved to this company is because of you. And I want to be closer to my wife,"I just rolled my eyes. How many times have I heard that from Magnus? I can't count.This is what I'm saying, eh? It's not just he is the new boss he will mess up me right now, even my work.I sighed. "If you have nothing to say, please, leave me alone. I am busy here, Mr. Wellington!""Can you come over here, Mrs. Wellington, please?""Don't call me that way, Magn
Zenith AFTER I send Magnus to his condo, here I am now, cooking his food. I did that because how he was able to take his medicine if he didn't bother to eat breakfast this morning. And it's almost lunchtime.Oh, why would I be doing this?After cooking, I immediately knock on his room to wake him up for lunch, so that he can now take the medicine, and I can also leave immediately.I frowned when I saw that he still hadn't changed his clothes. I think he really feels bad.I came over to wake him up. But I was tempted to watch him closely. I don’t know how many moments I stared at him. So when he caught me, I immediately averted my eyes."Tamara,"“U-Uhm, you're awake. C’mon, get up and eat your meal first before you take your medicine.” I turn around to hide the redness of my cheeks. I was ashamed when he caught the act that I was staring at his lips.Magnus immediately followed me to the dining area. He didn't sit down and he just watched the table."You cooked?" he asked me while loo
FinaleI smiled as I looked at Magnus and our little twin boys. What he wanted to happen — to have twins again and have a mini him came true. Macey was also very happy.She is really a sister to her two youngest siblings. Magnus was talking to our twins. I laughed in silence. The children are teasing their Dad.I bet the two wanted something from their father.Well, it was his fault. He is spoiling the two.Kennedy and Christian were already two years old. The two are identical twins. They were both handsome like their father.Like Magnus, there is also real awkwardness and mischief. The twins were really a perfect mini Magnus. It was as if the two were sculpted and deliberately made to look like him.It's just annoying because I suffered from pregnancy and childbirth but Magnus really looks like our twin children. Even Macey was a female version of her father. It’s very sulking. Sometimes Magnus just laughs at me every time I jokingly ask if they are really my three children.But his
CravingsWE were here at my husband’s exclusive resort. Magnus canceled everything booked at the resort whether tourists or locals— for me and my friends. This is my promise to Roberta. I was so glad and surprised when Magnus supported me on this. I was even surprised that he had a resort that was so beautiful.Magnus told me that this resort is really for me. He had it built eight years ago. This was supposed to be a graduation and wedding anniversary gift for me. But it wasn't done yet so he didn't immediately give it to me before. My dream house really should be like that. But when we separated, he decided to sell the property but his family did not agree.Even before Magnus's daddy died, that was what he was busy doing.He converted it into an exclusive resort that could be monetized rather than just sold. At first, Magnus also lost his appetite for the place so his dad was still in charge of it. But when he found out that I was Macey's mommy, her desire to fix the resort returned.
Hormones“AM I really have a little brother soon, Mommy?” Macey asked again even if I continuously nodded."Yes baby, but mommy doesn't know yet if it's going to be a 'he' or a 'she."“Yes! Thank you, Mommy, Daddy. Yehey! I will be a big sister, soon...” Macey was happily jumping on her father’s bed.“How? When? I-I mean… When did you find out about it, Tamara?” Magnus still couldn't believe that I was finally pregnant.I handed the cake to Ester again, then turned to Magnus. “In the other day. I'm having trouble waking up, and I'm vomiting. When I try to use my excess pregnancy test, it's positive. To make sure, I immediately visited my Obstetrics Gynecology, and here are the results. I assured my Ob Doctor everything before I told you and Macey because I don't want you to expect it,” I took the test results from the bag with me.I showed it to him. “It’s positive. I’m six weeks and four days pregnant, sweetheart.”Magnus took them in my hand, then smilingly hugged me and kissed me al
Surprise "Nanny Ester, is everything ready?" I ask while eying all the things that I was preparing for that time. “Yes, ma'am. Everything is ready,” she replied with a smile. “Baby, are you ready too? Your guitar?” I asked Macey. "Ready and I'm excited mommy," she replied with a big smile form in her lips. We were going to Magnus’s condo unit. I admitted to Macey yesterday that we were not on the good terms with her father. And now, I decided to reconcile with him with our daughter’s help. Our daughter had a suggestion for me to surprise her father. We will serenade her daddy. Macey will play the guitar and I will sing a song. Gosh! I never imagined myself singing a song. I’d never sung in front of other people. It's embarrassing. But, for my husband... I can do it. The three of us carefully entered the condo unit. Magnus must still be asleep because there is no work today. I just made breakfast at home. It was good for four people. I endured even though I was dizzy from the sm
MisunderstandingI AM lazy to reach out and turned off the alarm clock on the side table when it rang. I did not get up and my eyes remained closed even though my mind was awake. It's only Friday but I really feel like Saturday because I'm too lazy to go to work.Five more minutes.I turned off the clock again and set the alarm again.Even lazily I actually woke up before it was too late to go to work. I looked around the room. I am still sleeping here in our room even though it was very sad to be alone. At first, I wasn’t used to it but I endured the longing for Magnus’s presence next to me.I picked up the pillow he was using, then hugged it very tightly. It had been a while since I told him I needed space. I'm really having a hard time.Almost from time to time, Macey would ask why her daddy was no longer with us. Why doesn't he come home from work anymore? I know our child is very alarmed. The only thing I can answer is that his daddy is busy with out-of-town business. That he's al
Conversation“SHIT! He’s still as hot as ever, Tamara… Gosh, your husband can still take off panties.” Roberta uttered. "I'm still salivating," he added.I picked up my cell phone and looked at the call logs. That's why. Apart from Grandma, Macey also called her father. I just shook my head.“Um—” I was devastated to feel Magnus's presence behind me. Macey and my friends shouldn't notice that Magnus and I are at war now. So, I needed to pretend we were okay.I sighed, then turned to my husband and child."Hi, sweetheart." Magnus greeted me, then bent down and kissed my cheek.“Ahh, shiiit! I'm thrilled. What the heck!" Roberta still doesn’t change and still bites the nail when thrilled."Hmm, a-aren't you busy anymore?" my cheeks flushed and my heartbeat quickened as Magnus and I stared at each other. I noticed that just like my eyes were a bit puffy as well as his."Not anymore—" he doesn't continue speaking when Macey interrupted him.“Daddy, I'm sorry if I disturbed your important m
Macey's PlanROBERTA immediately approached me, he even hardly hugged me at the same time.“Oh. My. God. My jewel friend. My God! Is that really you, Tamara? ” he examined me well, then turned around to see my whole being. “Shit! Not fading, you're still beautiful, gurl.”I crossed my arms and smirked at him. “Of course, this is still me?" It was like I was back in the old days we are still students."Nice. She's still really beautiful herself.”I winked sexily."You know each other?" a question from two kids who looked confused staring at me and Roberta.Smiling we nodded.“Eh, Auntie, are we really going home now? Please, don't. I still wanted to play with Macey,” Daisy pleaded to her Aunt Roberta.“Go home? Oh, no, my niece. Nothing will go home, okay? Anyway, Tamara, this is my cute niece, Daisy. My sister's eldest child. Daisy, say hi to Auntie Tamara.” Roberta introduced his niece."Hi, Auntie Tamara." Daisy waved and smiled at me."Hello, Baby." I patted her on the head in retur
Ice SkatingI JUST bowed while sitting and was quietly crying at the edge of our Master's bedroom. I'd rather not go home, but no, because for sure my daughter will look for me when she came home from school later.My face went up when suddenly someone entered the room. I tried to wipe my tears, but still, I wouldn’t stop them from falling.Magnus stopped in front of me and sighed. "Sweetheart,"I was speechless. I let him see me crying and hurting.“Tamara, please stop crying—”"I hate you!" I say emphatically.“I know you’ll hate me again after what you’ve seen. But please, let me explain first, sweetheart…”“I want space. Leave me first,”He sighed. "I'm sorry…"I raised my face. "I want to be alone, Magnus!"“No. I'm not leaving. Please, talk to me. Let me explain—”“I asked you about your past, but why did you still hide it from me, huh?”"I'm sorry." He closes her eyes tightly. "…I do not want you to doubt.”“So you’d better lie to me than tell me about your past with that woman?
Jealousy“SWEETHEART, where are you? How long have you stayed there? Isn't it over yet?” successive immediate questions by my husband when I answered his call.“Honey, why are you in such a hurry? I'm coming back. Promise,” I laughed.I attended a meeting at Macey's school because the school year is about to close and overall, Macey got the top three throughout the Grade 1 level. Of course, Magnus and I are proud parents, so we would have been to attend the meeting, but my husband has a sudden meeting in the office. So, I just go alone.“I immediately miss my wife. It is bad to check on you every minute?”“Of course, no. I miss you, too. Don’t worry, I’m on my way now, Mister. So prepare yourself, because I'll take care of that later when I get there.”“You’re teasing me, Tamara. You probably know what will happen when you start me.”My smile widened at what he said and I deeply bit my lip. “For your info, Mister, I don't have started doing it because I'm not there yet next to you. So
