I have no words to respond to him. I just stared at him as tears rolled down my cheeks. I could only shake my head when he shook me twice. I think it is the end of my life. He looks like the death that would be taking me away from this life."Kalvis! Calvis, what are you doing? Stop that!"We both looked at Lita who ran in our direction. She was full of worry. "Why, Lita? Do you know this woman?! What's her right to enter in this house without my permission?!" he asked Lita. Lita snatched me from his tight grip. Only then did I feel that I was not in his arms again when Lita was slightly hugging me to give me protection."Kalvis, and when did you learn to hurt women? I didn't raise you like that! You are taught to respect women!"He was pointing at me at this moment, I looked at the floor. My vision is blurry because of the tears blocking my eyes. "That's not the point here! Why are you just letting anyone enter in this house? She's still even my mommy's favorite dress! Who is thi
I frowned, after the rain, I didn't know where to go. I don't know what tomorrow will bring me. I came out of the small space I was standing in. I felt that the surroundings suddenly turned around. I just closed my eyes when the surroundings suddenly turned black. "W-What's happening to me?" I asked worriedly. I put my hands in front of me, I couldn't see them. I heard a loud crash. I was weak, and gradually became unconscious. It was all just a dream, I slowly opened my eyes. I looked around, the inside of the room was all white. Next to me stood a pole with a white container hanging on it that only contained a transparent liquid. "Where am I?" I asked myself, staring at the small hose attached to my hand. I closed my eyes for a moment. Why am I here at the hospital? I have no money. What should I pay for the bill here? Marcov enters. Full of concern, he sat beside me. I averted my gaze from him. I guess my bad luck in life has gotten worse these past few days since he exist
I was left alone. I sat on the side of the bed, confused. Back then, I wanted to run away from my aunt and Chontel's roof, but now, I just want to serve them inside that house so that Marcov won't see me ever again. Everyone is probably waiting to find someone to love, and hoping to find someone who is ready to save them from the sadness that life brings. I was one of those who asked God for that thing, but I was afraid, and I doubted because Marcov Greyford was the person who showed me the motive. Do I believe it? Is he the answer to my prayers? I spent several days in the hospital. I could have gone out on the first day but Marcov didn't allow me to go out until he was sure that I'm really okay. He just tested everything on me, sugar level, my blood, if I have pneumonia, if I have malaria, and what else. And only then did he agree to discharge me when he found out that all the tests were negative. He said that I shouldn't be worrying about the bill because he would be carrying i
I got dressed. I stared at the mirror. He bought me a black strapped dress. He was thoughtful because he bought a blazer too, it would be used to cover my skin.I saw him bowing. I was a little embarrassed to see what he was doing. He was cleaning the stain on the seat. "Hmm."He stood up. He was sweating. "There you are. I just wiped it, so you can be comfortable later.""Marcov, I should have cleaned that up.""Veronne, don't be shy with me anymore. I want you to get rid of the discomfort you feel when you're with me."Even if he said that, I still couldn't get rid of my shame because of what happened. I sighed. I got into the car and immediately fell silent. "Veronne, I called an agent to find a unit for you. He said he will send designs so you can choose," he told me. Is this man really serious about what he's doing? "Marcov, you've spent so much on me. It's like you bought me," I said with a hint of humor in my tone. He had a beautiful set of teeth, I saw that when he smiled
The agent said a lot about the unit we entered. I can hear him but the words he said won't enter my mind as I only pay attention to the beautiful interior of the unit. Obviously, I was regaled as we walked around the unit. It has a large living room that is cleanly painted in white, some parts of the wall have paintings that were actually bought from abroad by famous painters, and there is a living room set that looks like it is often seen in popular series on television. The aroma inside was like a newly opened bottle of tequila with a chocolate flavor.We entered the room. The bed is big but it still can't occupy the wide space, it has its own comfort room inside, a small table on the side, a wardrobe with a stylish design, and even has its own TV. It has a nice kitchen and is very clean. The agent even tried to turn on the tap while explaining something. We went to the living room and the three of us sat down. He and Marcov were talking while I couldn't stop praising this unit wi
The position I was in when I fell asleep was also the position when I woke up when the alarm clock rang next to me. In my deep sleep, I was unable to change positions. It's not like when I was still at my aunt's house where I would change positions from time to time until morning. I got tired. I have been looking for this feeling for several years, and now I felt it again, to wake up without pain in my body and head because my bed is soft. I entered my class after I cleaned up and ate. I took my phone out of my bag when I saw it light up. My eyes widened at what I saw, almost three hundred miscalls, and more than one hundred texts I received from Marcov. "Shit! Maybe he's mad at me now. I have to call him," I said to myself and immediately dialed his number. He didn't answer my call. I was annoyed so I just put my phone back in my bag. Maybe he was taking revenge on me, that's why he didn't answer my call. That man is like a child thinking to take revenge on me.When I was inside
Kalvis' good looks when I first saw him had completely disappeared and were covered by his evil character. I thought he was nice, but he wasn't. He's handsome but at the core of being evil.After I saw Kalvis and was pissed because of him, my cousin appeared in front of me. My bag was hanging on his lower arm. Yes, I know it's my bag. With the money I saved before, I bought a second hand designer bag, and now my cousin is using it.l like she earned the money used to buy it."Wow! Nice bag," I said, full of sarcasm. He raised his other eyebrow staring at me. "Of course, do you know it's expensive?"I stand. "Of course, I know, Chontel. Actually it's second hand but it's still expensive. I know the price because it's mine," I said. I took my bag on the table and was about to leave but she grabbed my arm and pulled me so I returned to where I came from earlier. "Why are you so bold now, Veronne? Who are you leaning on?"I pulled back my arm that she held tightly. I'm done letting her
We are at the climax of the movie we were watching. A suspense-horror movie was played and I was giving my attention to it. I screamed because of the woman's stupidity. She already knew it was dangerous to enter the woods and that's what she did. "That woman is stupid! Where did her brain go?! God, she's making my blood boil because of her character! What is that?!"I was losing my mind while Marcov was seriously staring at the monitor. My forehead furrowed. He has no feelings towards the movie we were watching."Aren't you afraid of the movie we're watching? It's creepy!"He held me in his arms and ruffled my hair. "You really thought I was scared because of the show? How many times have I had low sales, and how many times have I almost gone out of business, I'm not scared, Veronne. I'm almost forty-six now and how am I gonna be so scared of those things.""But I'm sure, you're afraid of something," I told him. Marcov let out a long, deep sigh. He was silent for a moment. I moved h
The couple of years after we buried his body at the cemetery passed, but the pain was still here with me. All the days we spent together and the nights we shared with each other were nothing but beautiful memories of two hearts that were once one. My tears crossed my pale face. As my hand lifted the glass I was holding, I suddenly smiled, looking at the city lights from the veranda. “Why can't I get drunk? ”I asked myself. In the years Marcov was gone, I was totally lost and nowhere to be found. I know we have kids I must take care of, but my eyes can't stand looking at them. Because they exactly got their looks after their father, Marcov, the man I loved the most. Dorothy and Amirah never left me. They cleaned the veranda where I messed around. They took care of my kids. And they were keeping me from seeing the good side of life, even though I am blind. Someone made me look beside me. It's his older son who really looks like him. He was not staying here anymore but gave me time
We decided to hold our quadruplet party here on some of the most authentic and beautiful beaches in the Philippines. Siargao is really the most visited place here. I heard from people who experienced this beautiful and mesmerizing paradise how accommodating the place is. I've read beautiful feedback from others. And their page got a ten-over-ten rating from the tourists. They sing happy birthdays to my children. I am totally out of appetite because of Margarette, the fake! After the short program, here comes the feast. A lot of food is placed on top of the tables. There are many Filipino delicacies on the menu. I just had puto, bibingka, and dinuguan. The sunset caught my attention. My heart is beating and aching as I am watching over it. Like the sunset, I am wishing that this agony I kept inside my heart would come to an end. My eyes are tired of shedding tears every night, and my mind is tired of having heavy thoughts over the days. I want everything to fall into place so I c
-Veronne-Carrying four angels inside my womb wasn't easy. It was tiring and made my body function less effective. But every time I heard their small cries asking for their milk, their comforts made me realize that everything was all worth it.The pain in my back and private parts when I gave birth to them was truly a nerve-wracking experience. But again, their smiles and their little laughs helped me define myself as a real woman. My aunt and cousin never destroy our family anymore. But Margarette was a total mess in my life. She was acting kind and made me believe that all the things I'd heard a few months ago were real, even though they were all part of her schemes. “Baby!” Marcov uttered. It was a second after I put my sons into their cribs. I looked at the white wall while thinking about how I was going to make Marcov believe me. I brought this up to him before, but he said that it was not real. Kalvis was protecting his wife, and my husband was protecting his son. I could
-Marcov- It's never easy to deal with a pregnant wife who is always changing her mind about everything. In addition to liking a certain thing, she would crave different things. She's been so picky right now, and what made me feel stupid was the weird thing she wanted me to do—not take a bath. Yes! It's really nasty, but I don't have a choice because if I go to the bathroom, I am only allowed to wash my face. “Marcov, come here! I want to smell you!” “Baby.” I was just calling her with my endearment for her, but her face was showing a disappointed face. I don't have another choice but to climb the bed and lay down with my head pillowing my hands. She then slowly laid down in my arms. She got closer to me and started to smell like she was smelling a cupcake that smelled so sweet. “Marcov. It's addictive!” “Baby, I really want to wash my body,” I said. “Ugh!” She suddenly punched my abdomen, and it made me run after my breath. It's impossible! I was really happy about my q
Kalvis was challenging me. Well, I will make sure that soon he will know the dirty plan of that woman. I admit to myself that I told him to accept her and try to love her, but never to be fooled by her scheme. Marcov followed me to the veranda, where I was drinking wine. He hugged me, and it made me feel calm.“Why are you here, baby? The night is cold.” “Nothing, Marcov. I am just thinking about something.”“Care to share?” I escaped from his arms and faced him. He took a goblet and poured his own drink into it. “Nothing important. You will soon know about this. Just wait.”“Lita mentioned that my son came here. Was he bothering you again? Tell me if he does.”“It's just a little misunderstanding, Marcov. Don't worry about it.” “Are you sure?” “Certain.” I smiled widely to remove the worry in his heart. He touched my face, and the warmth of his palm pushed me to close my eyes. I held his hand and slowly grabbed his hand until my lips could kiss his palm. “Make sure that no
Walking around inside the Greyford Empire made me feel indifferent. Before, I was just a hidden girlfriend of Marcov, but now I am treated so well and everyone praises me. “I knew it! I was really suspecting them to be lovers. But no one believes in me!”“Me too. I never doubted my suspicions! The way that Sir Marcov looks at Madame Veronne means the world!”“Correction, she seemed to be his universe!” “Hi, Madame Veronne! Good morning!” They greeted me. I smiled at them. The joy in their eyes seemed to be uncontrollable. They bowed to me many times. Before I arrived at the office, someone caught my attention. It's Kalvis. He just looked at me for a while and went in a separate direction.I was about to make another step when someone clapped behind me. It's Margarette. Her left brow was lifted while her eyes looked at me like she wanted to harm me. “Clap! Clap! Clap!” she said while clapping again. “You can't imagine that you really made it, right?” “Margarette, I did it! I did
-Veronne-I went to my mom, and he went directly to the company. I sighed when I remembered what he did.“Honey? How's the honeymoon? I am sure that it went well! So, am I saying that I am going to have a grandchild?” I smiled while we were in each other's embrace. “Mommy, I am not ready for that. Marcov needs me to support him in his business. You know that,” I said. “Wait, speaking of Marcov. Where is he?”“He went straight to the company. He needs to settle something. You know that his people won't be doing their jobs well if he is not around. Oh, mom. I remembered what he did earlier. He reported someone who just looked at me, and he was arrested!” My mom was surprised. She covered her mouth before she burst into laughter. Like, what the fuck? Why was she like this?“Oh! God! That's impossible!”“It's possible, mom! What was impossible? The most impossible thing here was your reaction? There's no reason to be happy about someone who was arrested for looking at another man's wi
-Marcov-We were both naked and had no space between our bodies. My member was working hard to reach her clit and make her moan like she wanted more of me. I couldn't afford to refuse the beauty that was possessed by her. She was beautiful but never like me, as she was underneath my body whispering the chants of love.“Oh, Marcov,” she said. I was looking at her face and trying to do my best to give her the best moment she will remember until the days when we were both old. My body pressed against hers. I slowly hung her right leg on my butt while digging to her depth.“Faster, Marcov! Faster!” “Uhhh.”I responded to her plea. I thrust faster than ever, feeling that the first legal sex we were sharing right now would never be compared before. This one feels so right, and this one would be a great memoir to keep in the bottom of our hearts. “Oh, Marcov! I can't take it anymore!” I pushed once, and she met my body. I could feel how her gate suffocated my dick. I am certain that she
Every woman dreams of being paired with a man who's oftentimes read the best-selling book of all time. It was a wonderful feeling that you were walking above the aisle while the man of my life was waiting until I arrived at where he was standing up. His eyes were nailed on me while I was heading in his direction. “Honey, I don't know what to feel right now. I am going to cry out loud out the happiness and sadness mixed inside my heart. God, baby. You are really a grown-up woman now, and I lost the chance to look at you while growing up, achieving your academic goal, and living the life of a woman that you want.” I stopped for a while and looked at my mother, who was guiding me when we were both in front of my groom. “By any chance, mommy, I never imagined walking down the aisle with you. But today, you proved that a mother is a mother, a woman who will always stand up and walk by her flower. Thank you for returning to my life and walking with me heading to my groom.” Tears fell fr
