I let out a deep breath as I pulled up my car before the huge building - my boyfriend's company. For the past few weeks, Alex has not checked up on me nor is he picking up my calls. This is very unlike him and it makes me wonder if everything is alright.

I stepped out of my car and picked up the glass-framed picture of I and Alex looking all sweet and happy. I don't know why he's avoiding me but I will surprise him with this and confess my feelings to him.

This is probably one of the hardest decisions I have ever made but I have no choice. I know Alex doesn't believe in love but I can't continue pretending that I haven't fallen for him- He at least deserves to know the truth.

I walked through the glass door into the ever-busy hall with a big smile on my face. As soon as the nosy employees saw me, they greeted me. The naive ones slightly bowed while the brave ones muttered a loud "Good morning".

I just nodded at them as I got into the elevator. Each step I took towards Alex's offi

    LenaMy feet wouldn't let me stop as I ran out of his office and down the stairs. I couldn't tell how many I went down but finally, my tired legs stopped.I crumbled to the floor and started sobbing. I'm so stupid. If only I had rejected him that night. I shouldn't have let my love for him blind me. But why is it so hard for him to love me back? What does that Lisa have that I don't? My body racked as more sobs came. I was so angry, upset, sad, and hurt that I just couldn't think logically and rationally.I blindly got out of the building. By the time I got to my car, I couldn't even remember how I got there. Did I take the elevator or the stairs?.. I couldn't tell. I drove aimlessly and after what seemed like forever, I arrived home. I picked up my sunglasses and put them on as I trodded into the large foyer. Luckily, no one stopped me as I climbed up to my room.I crawled onto my bed. I brought my knees up to my chin and hugged them tightly as I sobbed into myself. My voice sounde

    Mona Lisa My heart skipped as I realized how much I had missed this sound. I got up to leave and he seized one of my wrists. "Please don't go" His pleading completely stopped me in my tracks. "It's late"As if that was the real reason why I was leaving, I saw the clock on the nightstand and it said 11:50 pm."Please stay." He begged again. He wasn't the type to beg so I knew it was the alcohol talking. As I was having internal battles with myself on whether I should stay or not, he added. "I need you."That simple statement destroyed my resolve to leave. I sat back down as he tried to sit up and lean back against the headboard. I stood up and grabbed the lapel of his suit jacket with one hand and the end sleeve with the other." Here, let me help you take this off so you'll be more comfortable."He moved away from the headboard so I could take the jacket off and leaned back again, once I was done. I took off his shoes as well."My sweet wife," He said tenderly as I sat back down. T

    Mona Lisa I froze immediately. I have always heard that Alex's father was strict and harsh. My heart pounded heavily as I wondered what he was going to do to me for playing games with him."Welcome, Dad. Would you like to have coffee?" I asked, trying to lessen the tense environment.He hesitated. "No. I just came here to stare at you. I mean, I'm so impressed that I had to take away some time from my busy schedule to watch the lady who was able to deceive me for a good twelve months."I swallowed hard. He is really angry and none of this would be able to appease him. I guess I have to face the music now. I made a mistake and I have to own up to it.I gave myself many reasons to be brave but the thought of who Mr Marvin was, made my soft heart worry."I'm sorry Dad. I'm sorry" Was all I could mumble. I waited for him to reply but he didn't. Rather he kept staring at me. His eyes bored into my skin, making me uncomfortable and more worried.Was he thinking of the best way to kill me?

    Monalisa Alex let out a deep breath as soon as he was gone. He turned to me sharply. " You must feel so happy to go be with another man ". He said with gritted teeth. I could see the rage in his eyes. The old Lisa would have screamed and told him how much I wanted to be with him, him alone. But not anymore. I will give Dad's advice a trial. I have to find out if Alex loves me and the only way to do that, is to make him jealous. "And what if I do, do you have a problem with that?" " Yes, I do. I have a damn problem with that." He almost yelled. " As long as we still live together, I consider you as mine. And for the record, I don't like sharing what belongs to me with others"What has gotten into him? He doesn't want to put the ring on my hand and yet, he doesn't want to let go of me. Does he think I'm some kind of kid that he can control?"I'm not your toy. So I'll do whatever pleases me and there is nothing you or anyone can do about it" I sneered.He scoffed and slowly walked to

    MonalisaI couldn't continue anymore as tears freely flew down my eyes. Slut? Me?. I slumped on my couch as I felt my world crumbling and crushing before my face. I have become a joke. No one is talking about Alex, they're all focused on me. Why is society so messed up? I never threw myself on Alex, he was the one that came to me and not the other way round.I felt a hand on my back, I raised my head to see Alex staring at me with reassuring eyes. "Don't let what they say get to you. I will find out who is behind this and deal with them accordingly" He assured.Is he really this dumb or is he trying to be dumb? Apart from the family, the only person that knows that our marriage is a contract is Lena. She is the one behind this. She must have exposed my fake marriage just to get back at me."Take your hands off me." I almost yelled and pushed him away as he stumbled backward. "This is all your fault. You're the reason why all this is happening."He etched his brows in confusion. "Monal

    Alex My face lit up in relief as Monalisa slowly opened her bleary eyes. I got up from the sofa where I had been seated for hours watching her cute face and wondering how she would react to what I was about to tell her and hurried to where she lay and drew her up into my arms.Regret and guilt surged through my bones, I struggled to convince myself that I was not a bad person but just a young man who was struggling with scattered emotions. I can't believe I toyed with the feelings of two women. I have managed to let go of one and refused to let the other go nor draw her close. I would have gone for the latter but I was really scared.- scared of ending up like my parents.Mona let out a cough and that made me realize that I was holding her tight. Jeez. I almost choked her to death. I muttered a "sorry" and let go of her. She had an expressionless look on her face as she sat properly on the bed with her back resting on the wall behind her."Mona. How are you? Do you feel any pain?"S

    MonaJeez. What is wrong with me? I quickly brought up my hand to clean my tears. I shouldn't cry for him. I shouldn't be this weak before him. Unfortunately, the more I tried to clean my tears, the more they came rolling down.What is wrong with my stupid eyes? This must be the side effects of being pregnant. It must be.Alex walked up to me and sat down beside me on the bed. He held onto my hand as I looked up sadly at him. My heart etched to ask him what about me? I wanted to ask him why he wasn't bothered about my feelings. "I appreciate your concern towards trying to clear my name but I don't think I can agree to this marriage thing. I would rather bear with the bad reputation than get stuck in another fake marriage" I said through gritted teeth as I snatched away my hand from his." What?. Fake marriage? This isn't a fake marriage. It's a court marriage."" It doesn't matter whether it's a Court marriage or not. What matters is that you're not getting married to me because you

    MonalisaI rubbed my bleary eyes and sat up on the bed. I stretched my body and yawned simultaneously. It was finally morning and my joy knew no bounds. I barely managed to sleep last night as I kept thinking of today's journey. Alex had told me that we would be going for our honeymoon to make the marriage look more real. After posting our marriage pictures to debunk the news about me entering a contract marriage with Alex, the Netizens went quiet while some were wise enough to wish us a happy married life.I hope those jealous ladies die of a heart attack. Alex is mine alone.I stood up and got started for the day. I brushed my teeth and took my bath. It was a quick one as I scurried out, humming to my favorite hip-hop song."Just smile for me and let the day begin. You're the sunshine that lights my heart and day. I'm sure you are like an angel in the sky. Come, take my hands and together we shall fly"I changed into a blue jeans trouser and a white hoodie. I giggled happily and pac

    AlexI dragged my feet into my room and slumped on the floor. Monalisa is gone. Isn't this what I have always wanted?. To be a free man. Completely free from the annoying entanglement called marriage. But then, why do I feel sad that she is gone. Why does my heart hurt. Ugh. I hate this feeling.I ran my hand through my head, struggling to keep my loose emotions together. I heard a knock on the door. "Come in" I quickly replied and the door cracked open to reveal exactly what I needed at this moment - alcohol. With the tray which contained the bottle and glass cup in her hands, Nanny Dora headed towards the side table at the end of the bed."Bring it here" I stopped her.She hesitated as she turned to glance at me, probably wondering if it was right for me to be seated on the floor. I don't care right now. I just want to get rid of the emptiness. I let out a sigh as she placed the tray before me, on the floor. "Thank you." She made to leave but paused and turned to me. "Just got a

    AlexI exhaled deeply as I finally brought the car before my huge mansion. I stepped down and rushed towards the main door, hoping that monalisa doesn't hurt herself . Jeez. What just happened. The automatic door pulled open and I rushed in, I was quick enough to halt or I would have collided with Lisa who was hurrying towards the door, rolling her pink travelling bag along."What is going on Lisa?. Why are you with a bag?" I asked, confused. "I'm obviously leaving your life so that you can have all the freedom to go back into the arms of your most beloved Lena " She growled and made to leave but I blocked her." What are you saying Mona?. You can't leave me just like that " I countered. " I know you are angry right now but it would be better we talk it over than making such a haste decision to leave "" Talk over?. Look Alex. There is nothing to discuss here. You have chosen who you want to be with and I'm sick and tired of being a sideline. I'm sick and tired of hoping for a relat

    AlexI was trying to get clothes for Mona when I got a text message from Lena. She has arranged an apology surprise package for Lisa and would want me to check it out before inviting Mona over. Mona has been moody since their fight, I just hope this surprise will lighten up her mood again and probably, they will become friends.It was a few minutes drive and I finally got to Silverado's hotel. I got out of my car and walked into the large building. The moment I stepped in, the receptionist seemed to be waiting for my arrival as she quickly got to me and escorted me to the room."Come in." Lena's voice came as the young lady knocked on the door.I muttered a thank you to the receptionist before stepping in. I closed the door and turned to see Lena seated on the bed with no sight of any surprise package. "Hi, Alex" Lena chuckled as she stood up from the bed and walked towards me. She was dressed in a red gown which had a side slit, revealing her laps."I thought you said you prepared a

    MonalisaAlex kept on picking different wears, I turned many down but accepted a few. I was just not in the mood. Particularly not in the mood to shop with him. Because each time I set my eyes on him, I was worried that Lena would do as she threatened. No matter how much I tried to look happy, deep down I was really sad and scared.No matter what I say, Alex is still adamant about being friends with Lena. He trusts her so much and doesn't want to listen to me. I'm so scared that history will repeat itself again. I'm not even close to him, so it would be really easy for Lena to take him away from me."Mona. " A familiar voice yelled, bringing me out of my thoughts. I raised my head to see Kate walking towards me with smiles plastered all over her face.I jumped up to my feet and ambled over, into her arms. "Thank goodness you are here. I'm so happy to see you" She giggled as we disengaged from the hug. "How are you? ""I'm fine. What are you doing here?" I asked." I asked her to com

    Alex I furrowed my brows as Mona climbed down the stairs in a short gown, revealing her perfectly straight laps. It reminded me of the gown yesterday, I guess that stupid man got enticed by it and thought it cool to woo someone else's wife.Mona didn't even say a word to me as she joined me on the table. At that moment, I decided that it was time to go shopping and get her maternity gowns. All her clothes are getting shorter due to her bump. Her body belongs to me alone and exposing too much of it, is not cool at all."After breakfast, we are going shopping" I announced.She raised her eyebrows. "All of a sudden? Nah. I'm not in the mood. Some other day" She has been acting strange since we returned from the party yesterday. I don't know what transpired between her and Lena but I was surprised to see them fighting and to avoid giving the media something to gossip, I had to forcefully take her home. She should be grateful to me instead of acting all moody.Well, that wouldn't stop m

    Monalisa"Hey, wifey. You're here?" Alex suddenly appeared and threw his arm over my shoulder. "And who is he?" He added with a death glare at Leonard. Ugh. Why does he have to show up now and ruin my beautiful moment with this hottie? "Wifey?. You're married?" Leonard asked with confusion written on his face."No..I.." I tried to say but Alex cut me off."Yes. She is my wife. Why? Do you have a problem with that?" He bit out."No. Not really. Sorry for the inconvenience." He apologized. " See you around Lisa" He turned to me with a warm smile before walking away."Bye," I giggled excitedly just to spite Alex.As soon as he was gone, Alex took his hand off my shoulders. "See you around Lisa" He mimicked. "How dare that bastard flirt with my wife before my face?".He looked at me with anger written on his face as I tried to hold in my laughter. He looks like a child whose portion of food was messed with."What do you think you are doing?" He snarled at me. "What do you mean? I was j

    MonalisaI ran through my wardrobe, contemplating what to wear. I have to look as hot as my husband so that no lady would be able to snatch his eyes away from my body.Alex was invited to a ball party by one of his business partners. Although I wasn't in the mood to party, I had to agree to go with him to protect him from the evil eyes of women like Lena. I just have a feeling that she will be there.All my clothes were either short, too revealing, or too tight on me. While the remaining was so against my fashion taste. I guess my fashion sense has changed too.After a while, I settled for a red sleeveless flowing gown which was slit by the side, revealing my sexy legs. I put on a light makeup. I would have called Kate to help me get dressed up but she has tight schedules lately and I don't want to add to her stress.I wore a long gold earrings which shone brightly under the chandeliers. I slipped my feet into my black-heeled shoes and packed up my straightened hair in a ponytail.I t

It has been a while since I visited him in his office, I'm sure he will be surprised. I even made his favorite pancakes and strawberries toppings. This was the best way to repay him for the surprise outing yesterday.I got out of the car, put on my bold sunglasses, picked up the bag that contained the dish I made for Alex, and sashayed past the wide glass door which automatically opened as soon as I approached it.I was excitedly greeted by the surprised employees. I guess some of them had noticed my bump. I replied to those I could and waved at others with a forced smile. I got into the elevator but paused when I noticed a familiar figure walking past me.I hurried out to make sure I wasn't mistaken. My jaw dropped in disbelief when I confirmed that it was Lena."Lena" I exclaimed with gritted teeth. As soon as she heard her name, she turned behind immediately and

    MonalisaAs days turned into weeks, my bulge began to become more visible and my mood swings and cravings became worse. I would wake up in the morning and the first thing I would think of doing is eating without even brushing my teeth. Sometimes I would lose interest in going to the office and other times, I would prefer to visit Alex.The young man has gotten tired of me but who cares? It's his child and he should get ready to bear all the cross attached to becoming a father. Today is one of those days that I don't feel like going out. I had taken my bath earlier and made to go out but suddenly lost interest in going to the office and having to see different kinds of food which might end up making me throw up. I sighed and fell back on the bed. No one ever told me that pregnancy could be this tiring. I closed my eyes as sleep suddenly took over me.I don't know how long I slept but I felt a peck on my forehead and that made me force my eyes open. I was surprised to see Alex staring
