I saw how the sun sank already on the horizon from the front window of our home. In our fancy living room I sat on the couch with my feet dangling over the armrest, a glass of wine in my hand and a book propped up against my legs to keep me company. I loved the view from this spot because it was such a lovely one that took my mind off all the shit that had been going down lately. I felt the weight of my feelings more when my gaze landed on Lucas. His eyes were fixed on the laptop in front of him. His fingers were flying across the keys with a speed with his brows furrowed in concentration. His hair was tousled messily from where he'd run his hand through it repeatedly, until I thought of speaking. "Lucas," I almost whispered his name."I have an idea... Can we go out of town next weekend? You know, get some time away,""So that we can bond again. Just to at least get some fresh air? Away from stressful work." I saw how his hands stopped typing on the laptop, still he didn't look at
I hurriedly grabbed my things and then I followed Lucas just as he had just entered his car. "Honey, wait!" I caught my breath when I stopped. I was about to speak again when he got ahead of me. "By the way, Dianna..." "I can't drive you through your work because I have something important to go to." My shoulder fell down as I sighed for the second time in a few minutes. "H-Huh? You can pass me by like you used to do or even do that first, after all I'm not in a hurry." He picked up his key and momentarily removed his arms that were resting on the steering wheel of the car. "Dianna, you have your own car. You're just putting me into hassle. It's not bad to drive yourself sometimes," he said when he opened her mouth as if to protest again. My gaze dropped, my feet pulled back from his car. I pretended not to be hurt. "Ah, you're right! That's actually a good idea. It's been a long time since I went with you because you prefer to pick me up." "Alright, be careful. Chat me later
The sun dances on the curtain on our kitchen's window, and its golden rays shine in the room as if it were an open day. The scent of fresh flowers fills the entire house, the air is fragrant with their sweet fragrance, the birds chirp happily outside of our windows. I put the apron on my body as I move around the kitchen. I'm humming while I prepare breakfast. It's something that I do for him most of the time. I took a moment to look at the clock hanging above the refrigerator, and I smiled because it was still early, I was sure that it would be Lucas sooner or later. I admit that Lucas often stays up late or overtime in his work, I hardly ever see him take his eyes off his laptop. We often don't even talk because he falls asleep right away, that's why I wake up even earlier so I can prepare breakfast for him. I can't help but be singing while cooking, I'm sure he'll be happy again when the fragrant smell of what I'm cooking for him comes out later. I get a mug to prepare a cup of
"Dianna, I'm pregnant!" I was clutching my chest when my office door slammed, as Chelsea handed me a pregnancy test with a positive result. My eyes widened. "Oh my gosh! It's definitely good news, Chelsea. I'm happy for you and Dave." "Congratulations!" I added and returned the pregnancy test to her. She was happy to sit in the chair in front of my table. "Does Dave already know?" "Actually, not yet. I just found out, and I'm still thinking of a way to make it unique when I tell him." "You're the type who will really cry when he finds out!" "Dianna, I'm really happy. I mean, it's a different feeling when you find out you're going to be a Mommy soon." I saw the glow on her face and smiled. She was so happy, it's too obvious. Well, who wouldn't? "I'm sure that no matter how you tell your husband that, his smile will reach heaven." Her gaze became even wider, her eyes seemed to contain stars. "Oh, I'm sure of that too! How many times have we been rocked, and finally now it was wo
He gently strokes my back as I lay down in bed, holding me close. His lips move down to the crook of my neck as his hand moves up and down my bare thigh. "Oh, Lucas..." "I want to make you happy, Dianna. I want to give you a child." His soft lips continued to caress my neck, down to my chest. "You're so beautiful, honey." My body arched, when I started to feel 'him' in my womanhood. "It makes me want you even more." My fingers dig into his shoulders as his mouth presses against mine passionately. My heart races in a rush and I feel like crying out with happiness as he pushes me onto my back with a kiss so powerful. "Ohhh, L-Lucas..." I closed my eyes, I bit my lip when I felt his length. My body trembled, as he continued his movement, his lips could not be removed from my chest. We exchanged hot kisses and deep moans until I felt the heat that came from him take over my being. "Mmm..." I slowly opened my eyes because of the strong sunlight coming from the window in our room. I
"I-I'm sorry, Dianna." He stopped and faced me. My forehead furrowed as he stepped closer to me. "Sorry?" "Dianna, please don't make it a big deal." I felt the weight of my feelings. "Don't make it a big deal? Lucas, it is a big deal! I can't believe you, for the first time you didn't remember my birthday." I wiped the tears from my cheeks. "Excuse me, will I be too dramatic if I say that I am in pain today because my husband just forgot that one of the days that is important to me?" He put down the bag and then came closer to me, then he held and gently caressed my hands. "I'm sorry alright? I just lost my mind because of the amount of work I do at work." My lips trembled, even if I wanted to accept his reason right away, I couldn't because he had already hurt me. "Is it really just your job, huh, Lucas?" I noticed that he was stunned, but now he touched both of my cheeks. "O-Of course, Dianna. I just forgot now, didn't I? And I regret that I forgot your birthday. I really do.
"May I know your name?" I already turned my back at him when I heard him ask that, causing me to face him again. "By the way, I'm Dylan. I am a new investor here at Rodriguez company," he extended his right hand while introducing himself to me. "Oh, so you are one of my husband's new co-worker then. I am her wife, Dianna," I also introduced myself with a soft smile, shaking his hand lightly. "Wow! I am a bit disappointed. I thought you were my soulmate already." My lips parted for a moment, but later I just laughed at what he said. "Just kidding! It's really good to meet the beautiful wife of our Mr. Rodriguez." He flashed me another charming smile which made me blush slightly. "Thank you, I must admit, you are quite handsome yourself." He let go off my hand and chuckled. "Well, I have to thank you for the compliment. I mean, I have always heard that you're quite the beauty. You know, I also know your father. He's an amazing CEO of one of your companies somewhere in New York, ri
As the sun started to go down, I picked all my things as I was preparing to go home. Lucas promised me just this morning that he'll go home earlier from work, so that we can have our celebration of our anniversary later night. And I want to make more efforts for this, because I noticed how he also does his best every year to make this day memorable, sweet and full of love.As I opened the door of my office I was shocked to see Chelsea there with some of my staff. "Opps! You are not going home yet, Dianna. Remember, we are going to celebrate my pregnancy!" Chelsea said in excitement. I scratched my senses, I almost forgot. "Let's celebrate at the bar, tonight!" she added enthusiastically, the others agreeing. "At the bar? Why there, Chelsea. Don't tell me—" "No worries, because we'll just dance there, drink juice, no wine. Kill joy is forbidden, we shouldn't miss it." "Guys, Chelsea, I have something to tell you," I tentatively began. "Tonight is actually our anniversary. Hmm...
