STUCK IN-BETWEEN To be home again.
After the long get-together time, Ivanna and Jolly finally settled down from their emotional state.Ivanna's gazes fall on Ashley, she didn't say anything. It was like she was never there."Mom, Jolly I need to talk to you guys" Andriy informs."Sure, anything!" Ivanna leads him to the sofa, and he willingly accepts."What's so important than it couldn't wait for me to get enough time with my son?" Ivanna asked, ready to listen to what so ever thing he had to say."Mom, I know this isn't the right time but I must come clean and clear to you. You are my mother" he pauses, Ivanna stares at him questioningly."Did you throw Ashley out of the house after the news about my death?" Asked Andriy.Ivanna was taken aback by his question, she wasn't expecting that. A frown appears on her face."When did you return home?" Ivanna asked instead of answering the question.Andriy knew how cunning his mom can be, he quickly interjected. "Answer the question mom, did you or did you not?" He pressed o

"why the frown?" Melina asked, staring at Jolly's grumbling face.Jolly didn't respond, she takes her seat quietly lost in thought."I'm sure it must be about Ashely," Melina said, patiently waiting for Jolly to nod.Even though they have known each other just for a while, Melina could tell when Jolly is pissed and who is responsible.Only Ashley can make her have those deadly and ugly frowns on her face.Jolly nods, reluctantly. She's already figured her out.Melina's lips widen into a sweet smile, just the way she wanted, her plans are falling into place."What did she do this time?" Melina questions, just when Jolly was about to explain things, she butts in."Before the long talk, we need something chilling to calm down her grumbling nerves," She said and waved. The waiter came running as she place their orders.She turns back to Jolly who looks so grumpy "you were about to say something... Go on" she urges.Jolly takes in a deep breath, "our plan is useless" she blurts out.Melina
STUCK IN-BETWEEN It's tim to play the game!
Melina waves Jolly goodbye and takes in a deep sigh, of relief. It's been a hard job talking some sense into her head and gosh! She feels like she's doing it all wrong.But not exactly, her main aim is to get Jolly to do the one thing she's always wanted and let her take the blame.With a smile, she brings out her phone and dials a number. The call wasn't picked up on the first ring, but with three more rings, the call was finally answered."Hello!" She beams happily, it was like she couldn't wait for the whosoever she called to answer the phone.The smile on her face disappears at the sight of Ashley, staring. "I will call you back," she said and ends the call."What a surprise! Hi!" She fake a smile. She doesn't know why Ashley is here all of a sudden and it's a big surprise to her.She has always been the one to chase after her and now, she's standing right in front of her... What a turn of events!"I know this is a big surprise and I'm sorry for stalking you" Ashley apologize.Me
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Second chance.
It has been days since Selene asked Aston to stay away from her. And as per her request, he did just exactly what she wanted.So Aston thought but to Selene, she was dying inside. She thought he accepted just for that night, that he will come around and make her change her mind.But it turns out she changed her mind even before he could accept and he's now willing to let go so soon.She stood by the side silently watching him examine the little sick boy. Her heart flutters in her chest when he turns to her.His face, his gaze and everything made her almost scream out but luckily, she was able to hold herself still letting out a sound escape her lips."He is getting better, inform his parents that his discharge will be in two days," Aston said and look away. It was as if they have never known each other, just people working in the same hospital.Sadly, Selene nods, she knows better than want something to spice up between them meanwhile she was the one who asked for an end.With that, A
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Insecure Scum!
"I want to talk with you and I hope you don't mind" Selene further explains.Aston pretend as if he didn't get her, he look all focused on what he was doing."I get it, it's all my fault and you have the right to ignore me as much as you want to buy please, hear me out, if it's the last thing you will do for me" Selene begs, it hurts seeing him ignore her without a care.Aston still didn't respond.Selene lowers her head and wipes away her tears, " doesn't matter if you care to listen or not, I will say it anyways and I hope we... We can get to be something better than what we used to be" She takes in a deep breath."You know me, my name is Selene but there's one thing you don't know about me. I'm so scared of losing the people I love, I'm scared they will leave me right after they find someone better than I am. I act brave sometimes but deep down, I'm a mess and an insecure scum." Her lips tremble, but that didn't stop her from continue talking."I-I couldn't stop me from feeling ext

"I'm so sorry, I was in a haste to get groceries and I forgot to tell you" Ashley breathes out in a single breath, places the shopping bags on the table and goes to Andriy's side. She tiptoes and kisses him."You should have to wake me up, you know just how much I love to go with you" Andriy complains, pouting.Even though he doesn't want to dwell on it, he can't deny the fact that he so much loves to be around her."Thought you will greatly need a beauty rest, moreover, I just couldn't bring myself to wake you up after seeing how handsomely you were sleeping" Ashley jokes and puts on a puppy dog eye."I'm the man here you know, I have to let you rest as much as you want while I protect you" He circles her waist pulling her closer."Mm-mm" Ashley hums, "and I am the woman here, it is my duty to make sure you are well-fed so you will have the strength to protect me" She pinched his chin and place a kiss before pulling away."Before something spice up, let's get these to the kitchen whi

Ashley walks out of the bath, weak and tired. She wipes her mouth and faces with the towel.Andriy hesitate for a while, knowing she might throw up again, he didn't want to go any closer."What's wrong?" Andriy asked, making sure not to exceed his limit. He watches Ashley walks to the bed, and rest her head on the headboard."I don't know!" Ashley said in a soft voice, she feels exhausted to open her eyes."Could it be... You are sick?" Andriy said thoughtfully, he so much want to reach out to her but he can't."I don't think so... I found all these while, it can't be" Ashley whispers. Just then, realization dawned on her that it might be something she has never brought herself to think about.Her eyes flew open, she turn to Andriy.Surprised, Andriy raise a brow, "what?" He asked.Ashley shakes her head, "nothing. Just, I realized I won't be able to go down for breakfast" she lies.Knowing she won't be able to stop herself from throwing up, she just had to stay inside."You want me t
STUCK IN-BETWEEN who is responsible?
Andriy push opens the door and walks in, Ashley was still sited in the same spot. She looks spaced out as sweat drips down her face."Is it that bad?" Andriy places the food by the side and takes a seat, pulling her closer."No, just feeling hot" Ashley blows herself with her hands, taking in a fast breath.She's been thinking about what Alina said and she's scared to conclude, it freaks her out.Andriy walks to the window and pushes further the blinds to the side. "Why stress yourself when the AC is available?" He asked, and turns to her.Ashley wipes away her sweat, "it's ok, I will be fine" She tries to brush away his worried expression."I know that, but you have to eat first" He carries the tray of food and places it before her.Ashley didn't have the appetite to eat, but she couldn't bring herself to tell him."Where are you on phone?" Andriy asked seeing her clenching her phone."Huh?" Ashley was very far away from the present.Andriy signalled with his brow, pointing at the ph

He hands her the box, silently urging her to open it.Ashley didn't know why he wants her to open the box but she did it anyways, her curiosity couldn't let her.Gasp escape her lips at the sight of the bracket sleeping in the box. There is no way she will ever forget this."Where did you get this?"

Ashley turns to him, with a raised brow."Yeah, I know that..." He responds.Ashley stares at the blue bracelet for a long time, still in disbelief that he kept it all this while.She turns and hugs him, "thank you" her voice was teary.She wasn't thanking him for the bracelet, but she was thinking of him for holding on to their one-night stand till now.Her lips find him, she kis

Ashley walks out of the bath drying her hair with the hand towel. She refused to sleep with Anton knowing what entails and luckily, Kayden wasn't too demanding today ad he fell asleep immediately after dinner.She had absolutely nothing on, her nice curvy body was as smooth as silk. She walks to the bedside, ready to go to bed butt naked but before she could finish drying off her hair, the door pushes open all of sudden.Out of reflex, she immediately uses a small towel to cover her body. Her heart was as though it would explode in her chest, as she stares at the door with wide eyes.It was Anton, he looks so carefree with a smile on his lips."Oops, you are dressing... Nice" he closes the door behind him and start walking toward her.Ashley didn't know if she should be hallucination or sad, he was just not making things better."You should have knocked" Ashley complains, and look away.His hot gaze on her body was enough to leave her shivering."Thought of surprising you and I guess
STUCK IN-BETWEEN the bet.
The car stops before the large mansion, Kayden and Ashley stepped out and made their way into the building with Kayden holding onto Ashley's hands.The sweet and mouth watery aroma coming from the kitchen was enough to leave the two begging for more as they lead themselves directly to the kitchen curious to know how is seriously cooking their nostrils.Ashley's steps froze upon seeing Anton busily cooking with an apron tied around his waist. "No way " she mutters under her breath in disbelief."You are back!" Anton spoke out breaking the silence."Come in, u don't mind you two watching me all day" he jokes.Kayden runs to him, demanding a piece of fried shrimp which Anton gladly gave him.Ashley didn't move, she stood there staring in shock."You should taste it, mama, it's delicious" Kayden rush to her and offer her a bite.Ashley's eyes widen even more when she realized the food is, even tastier than it smells. Her gaze travels to the busy man who seems to be enjoying what he is doi
STUCK IN-BETWEEN Something on your face.
Alina's hot gaze on Ashley was enough to make get her sweat dripping down her face, she doesn't understand what she did to receive such a glare from her best friend."Anything on my face?" Ashley asked, pretending to be oblivious to her constant stares. "Yes, " Alina responded. "A very big something that can cause a problem... Huge one can even make your face less attractive" she adds.This left a frown on Ashley's face as she tries to feel what exactly Alina said was on it. "Is it that bad? What is it? Can it be cleared in two days?" Ashley throws tons of questions at Alina, she wasn't scared of anything but acne... It always comes and never wishes to want to go and she hates it."Be serious, what's on my face?" Ashley asked again after seeing the exchange of looks between Kayden and Alina."Um, naiveness I think" Alina laughs, heartily at her words."You should stop playing jokes like that, it's no fun." Ashley complains, "you know just how much I dislike acne" "I never said you h

Andriy let out a chuckle of disbelief, "you are not serious, there is absolutely no way you can be serious" he doesn't believe her, nothing she will ever say will make him believe.He's been with Ashley for years now and he knows well what she is capable of and this isn't one of those things she can do and boastfully talk about it."I don't need you to believe me if this doesn't make you believe then stay but just know that won't stop me from leaving you" Brian pulls out another paper from the case and hands it to Ashley who then pushes it to Andriy."This can be issued, it's fake," Andriy said.Ashley smiled, " you don't have to accept it, just sign the fucking paper let me get out of here" "I guess I have stayed silent for a long time and I need to play my role" Brian spoke up breaking the awkward silence in the room."The divorce she is offering you is a peaceful one Mr Norman, I am sure you know too well your mom and sister could be sent to jail after the scandalous things they d

Brian watches her with a slight smile on his lips, even though he doesn't know more about Ashley, he does know she is a smart and emotional type.Not long, the car pulls off before the starlight cafe. Ashley walks into the building without delay, it's as if she knew where exactly to find Andriy.As expected, Andriy was sited patiently waiting for her. He stood up immediately upon seeing Ashley's approaching figure, he looks as though he was about crying or rather he's been crying."Ashley, thank goodness!" He breathes out and reaches out for her, "it's not true, right? You can't possibly want to divorce me right?" He begs with pleading gazes.Ashley bites her lips so hard that lines were seen after she released them, "Andriy?" She calls out in a whisper, "Behave please, we ain't the only one here" she informs with pleading gazes.Andriy turns around, only then did he realized they were the point of focus as everyone's gaze was on them."You won't leave me, right?" He asked although pe

It's been more than five days since Ashley left Andriy, he has been trying to reach her but she always declines his calls and silences her phone.She didn't want to talk to him or have anything related to him, but there is no way she could just run and hide pretending as though nothing happened between them and ignore her pain from the injuries caused by them."You shouldn't bother about it, my lawyer is downstairs ready to assist you in whatever way he can" Anton hugs her from behind, staring at the bright city through the window."Don't you think it's too soon?" Ashley turns to him, a look of confusion plastered on her face.Anton stayed for a long time, staring at her as if trying to read through those beautiful eyes of hers, he takes her hands and place them on his shoulders."You don't have to do it if you don't want to, there is more time to decide and get to choose the right thing" He whispers, pulling her in for a hug."No!" Ashley shakes her head, "I want to do it, just fee

Later that day, Ashley spent her time beside Kayden, she watch him sleep so peacefully taking in a calm and gentle breath.She was so focused on him that she didn't see his fingers moving. Only when he blinks his eyes open did she see."Kayden?" She calls out, surprised in her voice."Mama?" Kayden's voice was so soft that Ashley didn't hear him clearly but she answered anyway."Yes baby, I am here" Ashley stood up and side by side of the bed."I-i want to" Kayden struggled but the oxygen mask didn't let him.Ashley didn't know if she should help him or not but after a long thought, she did it anyways."I want to tell you that I love you and" Kayden takes in a deep breath with a smile, "I am happy you are here with me" he confesses.Ashley caresses his cheeks, "I love you too my love, and mama will always be here for you, ok" she comforts.Kayden nods in satisfaction. He look way better than when she saw him in the theatre and she couldn't help but be happy."Do you want something? An

"you are back!" Ashley said walking out of the bath and drying her hair with the hand towel.Anton didn't respond, he pulls her in for a tight hug stunning Ashley."Are you ok?" She asked concerned evidence in her voice."I have missed you" Anton breathed out on the crock of her neck, sending a tingling sensation down her spine.Ashley smiles meekly unable to contain the happiness, she grabs his face in her palms and pulls him at arm's length."I've missed you too" she confesses, tiptoeing and kissing his chin.Anton's eyes sparkle, and he pulls her even closer making her soft chest brush against his hard one.Ashley's gaze lingers on his for a long time, both lost in each other hot gazes."Is everything ok?" Ashley asked again, somehow there is this feeling she can't brush away.Anton nods, "yeah, very ok and kicking" he assured but Ashley wasn't convinced."What? You want me to prove myself?" He raises a brow. "Sure then, I will gladly do " he picks her up in one swift movement and
