Although I didn't want to admit it, at this moment it was quite obvious to me, Dexter is one filthy rich man, and he seems to have caught on to my thoughts because he keeps looking proud while standing beside his grand establishment.It's my first time on the proper training ground, usually I just pick them up outside but gaht was because I had no idea how glorious looking the inside was.With expensive equipment and materials, and a space wide enough to contain at least one thousand people, the training ground was reeking of a m*ssive investment of wealth."Welcome ma'am, we're glad to have you with us," the tall well built kids instructor with neat six packs greets.I could almost drool while staring at those bisets."I could also say the same thing about you," I respond with a giggle.If I knew the training ground was filled with so many hot instructors I would have dropped by a long time ago, I mean just staring at them fills my stomach."You're drooling!""Huh?"Dexter's abrupt i
"If I say I can do it, then why don't you trust me?" I adamantly refuse.Dexter grits, his grip on my palm is squeezing but he's careful not to hurt me."Because…" he begins, staring me straight in the eyes, "knowing you, you'll hole yourself in here all day just to get it right when it took years of perfection to get to my current level."I can't refute his words, on the contrary, he's very accurate.Supposing Dexter didn't see my current condition then I would have gone outside and continued my training, but he's here now and there's no way to refuse him."I didn't say I want to be perfect, I just want to get it right.""And I'm telling you it's normal to not get it right in your first day, so why don't you just listen to me!"The room falls into silence as he walks over to the corner and sighs repeatedly by himself."Alright, if you want to train so much then go ahead, but… not until you're able to master up the proper posture without using a bow and arrow!"My eyes shone right aft
I never thought I'd be the authoritative type, but I'm so pissed by her presence that the worse side of me is finally showing."I don't know what you're talking about," Linda denies with a scoff as she rolls her eyes, poking her mouth with her tongue.The nerve of this woman to dare mistake me for a fool."How did you find us in the first place?" I ask the adamant woman.Despite my several questions Linda looks away continuously scowling at my words as if I didn't exist.I can't bear watching her ignore me but I have to respect the fact that this woman could snap me in half just like a twig in the first place.Finally as if tired by my presence she scoffs, walking up to me as she continuously pokes me in the shoulder."Tell me something, Vina.""It's Vida," I correct her."You honestly think, you can seduce my man just because you have human half breed cubs with him?""I never thought so, but I can admit that he is attracted to me," intentionally digging into her skin.Linda's eyes sh
I could hardly believe my eyes, not less ears.Standing and staring right at Linda who has her five fingers showing right on her face, the horror of what had just happened could hardly escape my lips."...what… What are you doing? Why'd you hit yourself?" I am not sure whether to take a step forward or backward."Hmph!" Linda scoffs, her eyes slightly looking right behind her.Just then, it felt like the reality of the situation had finally caught up to me as I spotted Dexter approaching me from a distance with hurried steps, and he did not look happy.Slowly I take a safe step away from Linda as she holds her face, her eyes starting to well up and turn red, her voice hoarse while she continuously looks away and hesitant."I…I know you don't like me, but…" she pauses for a second and wipes her tears, "hitting me is way beyond rude, I don't think I used any words on you to trigger such hate…"What can I say, once a b*tch, always a b*tch, and this woman sure has her ways to the point wh
It was just as I had predicted. I didn't, even in the slightest bit like what came next, or rather, who I saw.To my greatest disdain, the beginning of my difficult life and the main culprit of how I ended up this way was sitting right behind me, continuously waving that he stands up and hurries over towards me."Boys, you see, someone is coming over here," I tell them as I watch Erik clumsily hurry over. "I want you boys to be on your best behavior and not say a word to him except greet him when he gets here okay!""Kay!" They echo, wiping their mouths in preparation for our guests.I could feel my inside twist in disgust as he drew closer.I can't help but wonder how he and Rachel are fairing after all these years.Did they finally get married after all they did to me?Tch! It's not my business, why do I care about whether he lives well or not?Still, I am surprised to see him after such a long time."Vida… hi!" Erik says with hesitation while he stutters.Contrary to years ago the
"Mama…"Neo suddenly calls out to me in a sad hoarse voice, it almost sounds as if he's about to cry. They've been quiet since we arrived home, but hearing them sound this way was quite alarming for me.Troubled by his voice, I laugh to lift the mood, "Yes sweetie?"There's a long pause right after.He's hesitating, and so is Ash who seems to cut eyes with Neo who couldn't care less about Ash."...Who's Linda?""What!" My world seems to have stopped for a moment right after I heard this question.I can hardly believe my ears as I scoff, hiding my worry and fear.Why? Why are they bothered about that woman and how do they even know her?"Who's Linda, mama?" Neo asks once again."Neo!""Are you going to abandon us, mama?" Neo begins tearing up as I embrace him tightly swaying him side to side as I as well try to control my tears."Why would you say such a thing," I tell him with a smile, knowing fully well he was right on track with the whole situation."But that woman said she's gonna
"I'm sorry for coming in unannounced, I just had something to talk to you about," I tell him while maintaining a safe distance so I can take a proper look at his face.Dexter still wears that look of anger or hatred as he hisses in annoyance putting back the toy on top of his table."Even if you have something to tell me, it doesn't give you the right to enter my office without permission," he tells me.I stare at him, completely unsure what to say next as I frown.How can he act like I'm tresp*ssing, and I already apologized, what is with him?"I said I'm sorry, okay, and besides, I didn't touch anything except the toy, okay.""Well I don't care, just, next time, don't enter here without my permission," he says.Being given the cold shoulders I'm taken back, my shoulders slump from disappointment as I didn't expect to be treated like this.Ever since we returned, he's become cold towards me, it's almost as if I'm talking to a different person entirely.Is it because of Linda? Has he
Lost in a whirlpool of confusion I rack the deepest part of my brain for an answer to his question but I'm blank. Nothing makes sense and neither is he."I don't understand what you're trying to say, if you have a problem or question for me then say it and stop with all of this drama," I tell him.Dexter's fists by his side clenched rather tightly as he still wears his fake smile.I could hear his breathing while he chuckled, barely able to restrain himself anymore.It scares me to see this side of him, and it's even more frightening to know that the reason for his behavior is something I'm supposedly responsible for, and yet unknown to me."I don't think I've been as obvious and as close to any male before as you did today with Linda, in front of the kids, you even yelled at them! It's fine that she's your fiance and she deserves respect but don't do so by embarr*ssing them!""Enough!"His loud voice echoes like a thunderstorm as I stand at attention.His shoulders rise up and down a
