"Do you hear my heartbeat?" He asked, and I nodded, because I could feel Arthur's heart racing.

It's fast enough that I can hear it.

"This is a sign that I am madly in love with you." Arthur said with a sexy voice as he smiled at me.

As I blushed hard, my cheeks turned bright red. "Well. I kinda noticed it, because who would look for a lady based on a one-night stand and still call it love?" I inquired after a brief chuckle.

Arthur licks his lips seductively while staring at me, his eyes piercing mine.

"Why did you feel the need to purchase so many flowers? You are aware that flowers are not edible, right?" I inquired of Arthur, my brow furrowed.

Arthur chuckles as he sexily messes up his beautiful hair. "Hmm... I noticed you like flowers, so I bought some for you." He responded.

I rolled my eyes and shook my head sideways before bringing Arthur closer for a hug.

He smells nice, and I can't help but become enchanted by it.

    I'm… I'm sorry, and it's our first gift in our relationship, so I was hoping we could name the dog together, but it's perfectly fine with me if you don't want us to name the dog together." Arthur stammered as he spoke.I'm not sure what's going on with me, but hearing Arthur's words hurt me because it felt like a string had been tied around my heart.I turn to face him and smile slightly. "How about we give her the name Karma?" While smiling brightly at Arthur, I suggested. "Are you fond of the name?" He asked, his brow furrowed, because he believes such a name should not be given to an animal.Before responding, I nod. "Yeah! But I can change the name if you don't like it, and because it's our dog and we need to name her wisely." I spoke softly.The name karma isn't appropriate for the dog, but I'm just trying to give it the best name possible."Sure, why not? I like the name, and as long as you like it, I'm fine with it." He replied before approaching me and attempting to hug me fro

    "Ouch!" Arthur cried out in agony while frowning, and I, too, had a frown on my face. "Do you want me to get hurt? and I'm talking about my heart, which you've already broken into tiny little pieces?" He continued, sounding like a small child who has been hurt by his best friend."I don't care whether you're hurt or not. Besides, why are you in my room in the first place, and if you knew what you did to me in my.... I mean, you're trying to take advantage of me by sneaking into my room while I was sleeping. Are you trying to do something that is inappropriate to me while I was asleep?" I declare, my brow furrowed, while staring at Arthur.I had intended to mention my dream, but I realise that if I do, Arthur will make fun of me.Mentioning my dream to him would entitle him to tease me for the rest of the day, which I'm not cut out for."What makes you think that?" Arthur quickly responded, raising his hands in the air. "I'll never take advantage of you, Cornelia, and the idea of sleep

    I didn't see Arthur's next moves coming, because he walks up to me and messes up my hair like I'm a kid before saying, "Good morning, pumpkin!" Before walking away, Arthur greeted me with the most sexy and hypnotic voice.I'm not sure if he's aware, but his voice alone made my knees weak and my cheeks extremely hot.I didn't see this coming, and despite the fact that I wasn't even smiling before, Arthur had the audacity to play with me like that.He knows how to tease me, and I am always taken in by him.As I recall how his voice sounded, I couldn't help but blush, and my entire cheek turned strawberry pink.I turn around and remove my clothes before entering the bathroom with a pretty smile on my face.I took a cold bath, and something strange began to occur to me while I was bathing. My conscience began to judge me, and it felt like a string was pinned to my chest and then pulled away, only to be struck by a hammer.'You must inform him of your illness, Cornelia; he deserves to know

    "I'd like you to pay a visit to my parents." Arthur declared as he finally released the bomb from his mouth.As I stared at Arthur, I arched my brows. "What exactly did you say?" My brows were slightly arched as I interrogated. My voice begs for an answer, and I hope Arthur responds honestly.He breathes out. "I believe you should pay a visit to my parents, Pumpkin, because they are dying to see the girl I'm in love with." Arthur explained to me.I was taken aback by his statement, which has rendered me immobile. "Why should I pay a visit to your parents? It makes no sense, Mister handsome, and we're not getting married, so why should I?" I inquired of Arthur, who was already staring at me with a puzzled expression.Arthur put his hands on my shoulders and forced me to sit on the couch. "Cornelia, I love you, and you love me as well. My parents called me last night, shortly after you made your way upstairs. They want to meet you, and believe me when I say my parents are fantastic…" "

    "Can you please tell me who Alexander's father is?" Arthur asks, causing everything I was feeling to vanish into thin air.I let out a hoarse breath and looked at him with a puzzled expression. Arthur is not seriously asking me such a question right now.I breathe out. "I... why are you asking?" I stutter, unable to maintain a calm voice.Arthur leant away completely. "I just want to know; I slept a night with you, last five years ago, so it's strange that Alexander is only four years old; I have a feeling I'm his...""Fuck off, you psychopath," I curse, interrupting his statement.What does Arthur think of himself that he's so quick to assume things. Does he think that accepting him as Alex's father is easy? pftt. "Does this mean that my instincts are correct?" he asked, and I had no choice but to force myself to burst out laughing."Hahaha!" I laugh, and because I'm very good at acting, I make sure my laugh doesn't sound forced.Arthur arched his brows, but he couldn't say anything

    "What do you mean when you say you looked through my profile and couldn't find my husband?" I asked Arthur, my gaze intensely serious and fierce on him.My big brown eyes were fixed on him, and I refused to blink because I was dead serious. "Hmm... I also thought it was strange because he couldn't be seen anywhere, and I tried digging in but it was still impossible. It was almost as if you were married to a ghost or something." He said, and for a few seconds, I couldn't help but think that Arthur is a crazy psychopath.I scuffed, and my gaze is still ferocious. I'm not sure if he sees my deadly stare as a game right now. "Are you serious?" My voice was as cold as ice when I asked.Arthur finally realised I was more than angry after my outburst, and he instantly became immobile after hearing my statement. "H.. huh?" He stutters, blinking several times because he's never seen Cornelia give him such a lethal stare.I scuffed, grinning my teeth so hard that it felt as if I was about to co

    "Arthur. I'm not who you think I am, and I'd like to make a change and start over." I said before pausing for a moment and placing both hands on Arthur's cheeks. "Arthur, I only have a few......."*Beep*. The bark of karma was followed by the sound of the microwave.I wanted to tell Arthur about my cancer while also informing him that I had decided to start over and enjoy the life that I had left. I wanted to tell him that I agree to go and see his parents because I don't have much time left on this planet.I hadn't planned on telling him about Alexander's biological father because if Arthur rejects me because of my cancer, I guess I'll just have to keep the rest of my secrets to myself.Arthur quickly moved away from me, dishing the meal he was preparing on the dining table."Pumpkin, our microwave butternut squash risotto is now ready." Arthur yelled from the kitchen in a beautiful amusing voice that made me literally smile."I'll be there in a minute." I replied before closing my e

    "You're not upset that I'm going to die soon. You know I'm not joking, right?" I asked before pulling away from Arthur, tears still streaming freely from my eyes.I blow my nose and stare at him intently. "Shhhh!" Arthur mumbled as he placed his hands on my lips to keep me quiet. "Don't ever talk about death casually, okay? You have cancer, but that doesn't mean you're an animal who shouldn't be afraid of death." Arthur advises as he wipes the tears from my eyes before pulling me closer for another warm-hearted hug.Everything that is going on right now feels surreal to me. I'm not sure if this is a dream or reality.I wasn't expecting Arthur to accept me so easily because I'd been keeping it from him for a long time.No man, I believe, would readily accept a cancer patient, but Arthur was an exception.He cried with me, advised me, confessed his love for me and he even coaxed me, making it seem like a dream.Everything feels surreal, and I have to pinch my cheeks.

    Five years later."Mister Handsome... please be careful!" I told Arthur, who was baking a cake for his one and only pumpkin, none other than me. "Are you scared that I would fall and break my leg?" He inquired, and I couldn't help but nod. I'm currently worried that Arthur will trip and shatter his legs. I'm just too worried about him to think about myself. "You should be happy that I'm caring for you, but I still don't mind if you fall, because I would end up laughing at you." I smiled and shrugged as I stated my heart.I merely stated the truth, and the truth will always be the truth. Arthur was currently atop a small stool, attempting to reach the cake knife on the higher side of the kitchen cabinet. He claims to have a unique knife that he keeps hidden in the kitchen cupboard and that he want to use it right now. He smiled as he stepped down from the stool and handed me the knife. 'Gush! I'm relieved that he successfully stepped down from the kitchen stool without injuring

"I hope you don't mind if I look after the things that God gave to you?" I was questioned by Mister handsome. I quickly acted like an compelled individual, and I began to nod my head in excitement. "I... I... I don't mind!" I muttered in hushed tones. I'm extremely excited right now and don't know what to do to make Arthur snappy.He could clearly see my begging gaze, and as he leaned in closer, he buried a kiss on my neck, sucking my flesh as if it were honey. My hands were pinned to the wall, so all I could do was arched my brows and moan loudly. The sensation was euphoric for me, and I was well aware that Mister handsome had more in store for me. Arthur brought out his tongue and allowed his tongue to explore my body as I bit my bottom lips. The sensation was divine.Mister handsome grinn

    There is mature material involved.The sound of birds singing a joyous tune could be heard across the window, and the sun's reflection sneaked through. I brushed my fingertips across the duvet, relishing the aroma of a new day. I slowly opened my closed eyelashes, and there was a handsome young man sleeping just next to me. Arthur is a handsome young man, and just glancing at him made him appear so sexy. But, then...I quickly grabbed the blanket that was keeping me warm in order to stay alert. I recall showering in the bathtub last night, but now it's morning and I'm also on the bed. I sighed with relief as I examined my body, knowing full well that I wasn't naked and that Mister Handsome hadn't done anything to me. 'But how did I get to the bed?'I blinked my lashes a few times before returning my attention to Mister handsome. With my hands, I gently caressed Arthur's face."You really are the most handsome man in the entire universe." I complimented Arthur because I couldn't

    Me and Mister Handsome each had a little reception party, and Arthur was quite amorous towards me during the event.Currently! After the reception, Arthur and I went back to our hotel rooms. Alexander followed Arthur Mom as they made their way to Arthur's personal hotel room because Arthur Mom was intended to offer both Mister handsome and I some privacy. I was fatigued, so when the door to the hotel room was opened for me, I went to find the bedroom so I could sleep warmly, but I found something surprising. As soon as I stepped into the bedroom, my mouth hung open slightly. When I saw a bed full of beautiful roses in front of me, I couldn't believe my eyes. "Do you think you're going to like it?" Arthur, who was standing right behind me, inquired. I bit my lower lip and nodded quickly. "I absolutely love it, Arthur." I exclaimed. I continued walking inside the room, straight to the walk-in closet. "Can you help me with my zip code? I need to get rid of this." I spoke to Arthur.

    When two loving souls meet and decide to become one, a wedding is nearly always in the works. And a wedding necessitates a well-designed and well-made wedding gown.A lovely white wedding gown with a straight pentagonal necklace and a basque waistline pattern was observed on the body of a lovely young lady with fair Olive complexion.The lady wore a tight gown that clung to her figure. Unlike A-line or ball gown wedding gowns, her gown is a mermaid-like gown that stretches below the knee rather than at the waist, creating the illusion of a mermaid-like "tail" that is totally stunning.It draws attention to the lady's contours. The mermaid dress produces an hourglass figure by hugging the chest and waist and flaring out at the bottom.It had a lace long sleeve that was meant to keep the lady warm, and a white Veil that was used to conceal the lady's face. Exhaling.I walked beautifully and confidently up the church aisle, my gown kissing the ground, and a pianist suddenly played a pia

    Many people are still wondering whose funeral Arthur visited and who exactly handed out a napkin to Arthur.... well! The individual is none other than myself. ***Flashback***I could plainly hear them chanting my name on the day the doctor declared that I was dead... Well! Despite the fact that I'm currently lying down in a medical bed, I could hear Arthur calling my name. I could tell by Arthur's voice alone that he must have been hurt seeing my lifeless body.But on the other hand, I'm more than hurt right now. It hurts me to leave Mister handsome alone, but I can't help myself.I don't own my life, so I don't have control over it. I could sense myself in a hospital bed, and the irony is that I'm drowning.

Not that I'm literally being handcuffed, but that's how I feel right now. 'Cornelia... It's finished!' I closed m

  • One Night Child    Burial.

    We are terrified of the unknown when we die, just as we are when we are born. But fear is something that comes from within ourselves and has nothing to do with reality. Dying is similar to birth in that it is simply a shift.**The casket was elegantly designed and white in hue. Arthur had ordered that the coffin be white, claiming that the coffin is as white as the soul of the person who will be buried in it.

Death doesn't make friends with anyone.Everybody is going to be dead one day, just give them time.Death is the penalty we all pay for the privilege of life.

    "You have the power to break my soul. Remove my life from my hands. Defeat me. Hurt me. Murder me. But for God's sake... death, please... don't take... Please don't take Cornelia away from me!" Arthur screamed while sobbing. He's still struggling to accept Cornelia's death. She couldn't be dead, can she?The doctor was no longer in the hospital room, and a couple nurses entered, covering Cornelia's face with a white sheet. Arthur's eyes remained wide open as his parents and Cornelia's parents entered, and his mother clutched him so that he wouldn't do anything logical.He remained motionless as he stared at Cornelia. 'She can't be dead, can she?' Arthur questioned himself once more. "Art... Arthur, I'm truly sorry." Queen Mulan said while cuddling her son. She still finds it difficult to accept Cornelia's abrupt death. It was still a dream, and all she could feel were chills on her skin and her heart splitting into pieces. She simply does not know what she would say to her son

Too bad for me because all the front seats were taken, leaving me with no other option but to take the back seat. Well! Since it involves my girlfriend then I'll do anything for her. I'm freaking ready to also endure anything for her which is as long as she's happy. I impatiently waited for Cornelia turn, and when she finally showed up, I became immobile.
