2024-10-29 19:42:56KATE woke up with a heavy head that morning. Maybe because she stayed up late last night finishing her schoolwork. They would go out to play golf with Jan’s friends, so there would be no time left for her to do it later that day. Jan was no longer beside her that morning, and when she went to the bathroom, it was empty. Ah, perhaps he had gone downstairs for breakfast.
She washed and fixed herself. And when she got out of the bathroom, she saw her husband’s assistant inside the room.
“O-oh. Hi, Rose,” she greeted shyly as she fixed her messy hair with her fingers.
“I’m sorry if I barged in. I knocked on your door, but it seemed that you didn’t hear it inside the bathroom,” Rose explained.
“Oh, yeah. Uhm… the water’s running.” Her gaze reverted to the clothes hanging on the rack.
“Ah. Sir Jan told me that you’ll be playing golf. You can choose from these brands what

SHE heaved a deep sigh when the car pulled in inside the garage. Jan got off first and opened the door for her.“Thanks,” Kate said as she got off from the passenger ‘seat.She slowly sauntered to the door, and he followed her.“Katherine.” Jan heaved a sigh.“Yes?” She turned to face him.She was surprised when he suddenly hugged her tightly.“J-Jan… you’re squeezing me,” she said.“Oh. I’m so sorry.” He loosened his arms around her and slowly freed her.“I think you should give your friends a call.” She held his hands. “They’re definitely wondering where we are now.”“Oh. Yeah.” Jan fished his phone.”“I’ll head inside first and see if there’s something to eat,” she said before heading inside the house.Nana Talia was going down the staircase when she

JAN knew that he would take her home the moment he saw Katherine. But after that scene he saw a while ago, he could no longer hold back. He was on fire. So, he took her upstairs and brought her inside the nearest room that he saw. He just hoped that her friend would not mind that.“Jan… a-are you sure we’re doing it here?” she asked breathily when his lips went down to her neck.“I’m sorry, Katherine. But I can no longer wait until we’re home,” Jan said. He slid his hand inside her pajama bottoms and palmed her.“Oh, God…” she whispered when his fingers started to move.Katherine flinched and writhed as he continued his assault down there. And the more he heard her moan and gasp for air made him even more aroused. Her skin was so soft; every inch of it that he kissed made him feel wonderful on the inside. And just with that, Jan knew he would leak anytime soon.“J-Jan…

JAN’s father was standing by the foyer when they arrived at the mansion. Beside him was his brother Fernan, who immediately waved his hand to them the moment they stepped inside.“Katherine,” the older Alejandro greeted her with a welcoming tone. “At last, we met.”She smiled and sauntered towards Jan’s father when he spread his arms. He hugged her quickly and turned to his wife afterwards.“And now you’re back home.”Jan’s mother rolled her eyes and scowled at her husband.“Oh, Martina… please don’t show your attitude in front of your daughter-in-law.” He turned in her direction again and smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry, Katherine. This isn’t the scene I have in mind about our first meeting.Kate chuckled. “It’s fine, Sir. I—”“Sir?” Jan’s father’s brows furrowed.“Oh&he

WHEN Kate returned to the bedroom, Jan did not join her. She waited for him until dawn, but no Jan came in. She could not understand his sudden change of mood.She changed into the dress his mother had given her last night and came down for breakfast. Fernan was the only one on the table when she arrived in the living room. Kate cleared her throat to get his attention.Fernan put the tablet down and smiled at her.“Good morning, Katherine.” He gestured on the chair across his seat. “Have a seat and join me for breakfast.”She sauntered towards the chair and settled there. Scratching the side of her neck, she looked around.“Where’s everyone, by the way?” Kate picked a slice of wheat bread and spread some cream cheese on it.“Mom left early for her yoga class. Didn’t Jan tell you that he and Dad were leaving early?”She bit her lower lip and shook her head. Fernan’s fore

KATE went inside the bathroom to get a wet towel that she would use to wipe Jan. But when she returned to the bed, she saw Jan sitting on the floor, puking. “Oh, God…” she muttered and rushed out of the room and called for help. Luisa immediately came, followed by Nana Talia. “What happened?” the two asked in unison. “I need help. Jan’s wasted,” Kate told them and turned in her husband’s direction as she heaved a deep sigh. “O-oh.” Nana Talia cupped her mouth. “I’ll go get something to clean the floor.” “Luisa, can you help me take him to the tub?” “Yes, of course.” They pulled Jan and almost dragged him to the tub. He was so wasted; he looked like a giant version of a baby who needed his mother’s helping hand to get a bath. “I can do it from here,” Kate told the maid after they successfully put her husband inside the tub. Luisa nodded her head and left the bathroom. She helped Nana Talia on cleaning the

KATE kept her gaze fixed outside the car. As much as possible, she wanted to keep her thoughts to herself. However, Fernan did not think the same.“Katherine,” he said after driving a few kilometers away from home.“What is it?” She glanced at him.“Did something happen?” He sounded worried.Perhaps he had a hunch about what happened, and he just wanted to hear it from her. she heaved a deep sigh and leaned her head against the windshield as she stared at him.“After what happened the other night back in your parents’ house, Jan seemed to be a different person. He… usually calls or sends me a text just to check on me. But yesterday, he just sent me a message telling me that he was busy in the office. And then… he won’t home late at night, wasted.”“He did that again.” Fernan shook his head.Based on the sound of his voice, it seemed that he kind of e

“EVAN,” Jan called his secretary after looking at the revised design of the hotel their company was about to renovate. “Why is it like this now? The first already looks good. I just asked them for some enhancements.”He shoved the folder towards his secretary.“From what I remember, Sir, it was your father who ordered for this kind of revision. He said he wanted it to look more classic since it’s a heritage site and—”“Fine.” He pulled the folder.“Is there anything you need, Sir?” his secretary asked politely.“Nothing. You can go back to your spot.”“Alright, Sir. Call me if you need anything.”Jan focused on his work again, but after a few seconds, Evan came in again.“Sir.”“What?” He said without raising his head.“Your wife is here,” his secretary informed him.His gaze r

“KATE.”She turned behind her. Jona was inside there, peeing.“Is there a problem?” She dried her hands with a paper towel and strode towards the door.“Do you have a pad with you?” her friend asked in a low tone. “My period came early, and I don’t have one right now.”“Oh, wait. Let me check my bag. I think I have one.”Kate came out of the restroom and went back to their classroom, where she left her bag. She took the sanitary pad that had been staying inside her bag for weeks now and gave it to Jona as soon as she came back.She then leaned against the sink as she waited for her friend to come out of the cubicle.“Jona, have you ever been delayed for four weeks or more?” Kate asked innocently.The door opened, and Jona sauntered towards her. Her friend grasped her shoulders.“Kate, you have a husband and a sex life. Why are you asking

JAN checked in at the same hotel where his brother was staying. He emptied the envelope the moment they got it and looked at its content one by one. He caressed his chin and looked at her afterwards. “When did you get all of these, Katherine?” “Steel delivered them to me before your dad died. I… I decided to keep it hidden at my family’s ancestral house in the meantime.” “And are you carrying them now? Are you going to give them to my brother?” “No…” Kate shook her head and clasped her hands. “Winona called me. She told me there’s a possibility that you’ll come here to see your brother. And she was right… I have it with me because… I want to show it to you in front of your brother and—” “You don’t have to do that, Katherine.” Jan rose from his seat and sauntered towards her. he held her by the arms and looked at her straight in the eyes. “What’s between Fernan and me will remain between us. I don’t want you to involve yourself with that. Do yo

KATE was biting her nail anxiously as she paced back and forth in the living room.“Dear, could you please stop doing that? I’m starting to get dizzy seeing you pacing like that,” Nana Talia told her and sighed. She even lightly hit her leg with her cane.“I can’t help it, Nana… I’m worried why Angelique and Mom still haven’t arrived here at this hour!” She was almost hysterical when she said that. “Their plane landed at ten this morning. It was already two in the afternoon!”“Then why don’t you call Madam Martina and ask her where they are now instead of worrying here?” Her nanny leaned against her seat and massaged her forehead. “You’re not just making my head dizzy. Now it throbs.”“Right.” Kate fished her phone frantically from her pocket and called Jan’s mother.The other line kept ringing until she heard the operator say th

KATE was cooking fried rice in the kitchen when her nanny came in from the backdoor. She was followed by the cook, who carried the freshly picked crops from the vegetable garden.The cook rushed to her immediately. “Madam, you should’ve—”“No, it’s alright.” She flashed a smile and continued mixing the fried rice in the wok.Her nanny went beside her and nudged her to the side.“Your aura’s looking exceptionally happy today, dear. Did something good happen?” asked Nana Talia.“Well…” Kate turned off the stove. “Jan finally came out of the guestroom, and he requested some fried rice for breakfast, so I cooked for him.”“Oh!” Her nanny’s eyes glowed. “You did it, Kate! It worked!” Nana Talia tapped her back. “Well done, dear.”“Thank you, Nana.”She poured the fried rice into a bowl and

JAN’s mother decided to hold a one-day funeral for his father. After that, he was taken to his final resting place. Fernan did not show up, and Kate only heard from Winona that he had been locking himself inside his hotel suite and would not talk to anyone. She knew what he did was wrong, but then… she could not help but worry about him. Fernan’s situation was not easy, and there was a possibility that his mental state was at stake. She wanted to check on him, but a lot of reasons were holding her back. In the end, Kate decided not to see him and just wait until their paths crossed again. And as for her husband, Jan was another problem. He had been locking himself inside the guestroom. He has barely eaten a decent meal since his dad died and only filled his stomach with different liquors his hand would have a hold. The Villamar brother’s coping mechanism was too far from their mother’s. After her husband’s funeral, Madam Martina went on a vacatio

KATE was at the venue of their company’s commercial shoot that day. She left her phone in the car and eventually forgot to get it, for she was too occupied with supervising the shoot.“Is it alright if we retake that one? I think it will look better if we take the shot from the left angle. What do you think?” she told the director.“Oh, Katherine! You do have a good eye!” the director said after taking another look at the video they shot. “Let’s roll another take of this one.”The director immediately prepared for another shoot.She sat on a bench as she waited for the shoot to happen. That was when her secretary came to her, rushing.“Is there something wrong?” Bianca handed her her phone. “A call from your in-laws’ residence, Ma’am. It’s urgent.”“Hello…” Kate said nervously. Could it be that something happened to her husband again?

KATE hid the file folder in her family’s ancestral home before going to Jan’s parents’ place. She had to hide it somewhere far from everyone who must not see it in the meantime. She must keep the secret until the right opportunity to tell everyone comes. His family had been through a lot lately; she did not have the heart to add another problem.She dipped herself in the bathtub while enjoying a bottle of champagne, hoping that it would relax her mind and body. It was her only escape since she could not go somewhere far away to unwind.“This is one of the things that I miss about you.”Her gaze reverted to the door when she heard Jan’s voice. She found him leaning against the doorframe. His eyes were glistening with admiration as though she was the most beautiful woman in the world.“If you’re going to join me for a bath, please turn off the light.” She took a huge gulp of champagne.“And

KATE sipped her wine as she sat on the bench in the garden. She went there after putting her daughter to sleep. She thought some fresh air would help her feel sleepy, but it did not do much.“I told you, you should join me in bed from now on,” Jan said as he sat down beside her.“And then I’ll keep running back to Angelique before she wakes up in the morning? Nah.” She chugged down the remaining wine on her glass and put it down. “That set-up is hassle—”“Then perhaps you should teach her to sleep on her own….” He buried his face in her neck and sniffed her scent. “The bed feels so huge and lonely without you by my side.”Kate chuckled when she felt his tongue graze the sensitive flesh of her neck.“I didn’t know that your amnesia has this kind of—” He bit her neck. “Jan!”“Ssshhh…” He snaked his arm around he

SHE opened her eyes when she felt butterfly kisses showering her face. Kate smiled immediately when she saw it was Jan.“Good morning,” he said and kissed her deeply afterwards.Her brows furrowed when she realized that her husband was acting as though they did not argue last night. Was he too drunk last night and he did not know what he was doing? Did he already forget about it?“Tell me… have you forgotten what happened last night?”“Which of the two?” he countered.Kate pressed her lips firmly. Ah, it seemed that he did not forget about everything.Jan sat up and leaned against the headboard. He looked down at her, and his fingers started creating circles at her bosom. Kate closed her eyes and moaned softly. What he was doing was already arousing… for her.“I had a dream last night,” Jan said after a while.“About what?” She did not take her eyes off h

KATE stood by the foyer with her eyes fixed in the direction of the gate. She was waiting for Jan to come home. He left before sunset when she had just arrived from work. Jan did not mention where he would go, and she did not dare ask. But now, Kate’s anxiety was tearing her apart. She feared that her husband would not come back just like the last time.“Katherine?”She turned behind her and saw Jan’s mother walking in her direction.“Mom.” She managed to flash a smile.“What are you doing here, hmm?” Her mother-in-law caressed her arm.“I’m waiting for Jan, Mom.” Kate heaved a sigh and turned in the direction of the doorway again. “He left this afternoon and… I don’t know where he is.”“Jan told me he’s going to meet Winona.”She suddenly felt a pang of jealousy in her chest. Jan did not even remember his feelings for her. Wha
