“How far are we?”Lyken glanced sideward and noticed that her mood had gotten better. “We’re close, don’t worry! Are you hungry too?”She looked at her as she nodded, then shifted her position to lean her head on his shoulder. My heart leaped. She’s very unpredictable.She was fuming mad earlier, and now she’s sweet all of a sudden. Despite the mood swings, Lyken still loves her and won’t trade her for anything in the world.He lightly kissed her forehead, and she returned it with a peck on his cheek. Lyken broke into a smile. He loves this side of her.After a while, he can already see the restaurant’s signage. That’s where their friends and parents were waiting for them.Lyken’s smile widened, but his anxiety heightened. He even steals a sigh as he stops near the parking lot. “Are we here?” she asked, and he nodded as he turned off the engine and took off his seatbelt.“Sec,” he quickly told her as he stepped out of the car. Lyken ran to the passenger side to open the door for her.
“Good morning Mrs. Fontanilla!” Lyken greeted when she answered his call. “Good morning, my love!” She replied sweetly. It’s only been a week since he proposed, and now, he’s out of town with Kobe to work on their projects. Whenever she looked at her engagement ring, Jada would feel her heart swell. She can still remember what happened that day. Everything was crystal clear to her. After he proposed and received greetings from their friends and parents, they went out to the restaurant’s balcony. Jada thought they were just checking the sights he mentioned while eating, but then a chopper showed up. It rolled down a banner that said, ‘I love you, Mrs. Fontanilla!’ After that, they went sightseeing with their friends and parents. Then they went back to the restaurant for dinner. When the event was over, Lyken took her to his condo instead of hers. There, they shared a hot and sizzling night. It was the best she’s ever had with him so far. The next day, Lyken took her home, and the
After a week, all the preparations for Jada and Lyken’s wedding has been completed. The church, venue for the reception, gowns for the bride and entourage, and the wedding theme were all set.Lyken and Kobe were done with all their projects as well. Kobe has also signed Lyken’s leave of absence for his upcoming wedding.“Baby, your bridal shower’s tonight, right?” Lyken asked. He was lying on the couch with a pillow propped under his head.Jada sat next to him, handing him a glass of mango juice, “Yep! But the pinks are way more excited for that,” she chuckled.He just nodded and smiled as he pulled himself up. “Don’t look too much, okay?” he reminded. Jada and Lyken were informed that the pinks hired a stripper for the event.“Of course… unless something is interesting to look at,” she grinned.Lyken glared at her, scrunched his nose, he cleared his throat as if sending a warning. As she got the signal, Jada showed him a peace sign to calm him down before snuggling next to him.“Hmph
‘It’s Lyken! It’s definitely him!’Jada knew something was up when their friends were all acting weird while planning the party. They’re hiding something, and this was it. Lyken showed up as a stripper!“Surprised?” he whispered as he planted a kiss on her lips and lightly sucked her lower lip.Lyken removed his mask, “Why are you here?” Jada chuckled, shaking her head at him.“This is Bambi and Ada’s idea,” he informed her. “They talked me into doing this. Even Robin and Steve helped them.”Jada looked at the pinks. They were now busy squirming because the strippers were on them. She laughed, hitting Lyken lightly in the arm.“Why would you even ask me to change clothes when you were attending anyway!”Lyken wrapped his arms around her waist, pulled her closer, and let her chin rest on his shoulder. “I know you were upset about that earlier,” he whispered. “But as you can see, there are still other men here, baby.”“Why are you so jealous?!” Jada asked in a low voice.Lyken let out a
Lyken stayed overnight, complaining about a throbbing headache. He was up early the next day to meet his relatives who came from the States for the wedding.Jada asked him to drop her at the mall. He didn’t ask why she was going there, so Jada was relieved. When she arrived, Ada and Bambi were already waiting for her.“Let’s go byotch!” Bambi excitedly pulled her. They went to the boutique she told them about last night. It’s a specialty store that sells stripper outfits for both men and women.As soon as they got in, Jada found the outfit she was thinking of wearing. A glitter sheer mesh jumpsuit.“Girl, no need to try it on!” Ada exclaimed, obviously excited.“I know, right?” She responded as she walked over to the counter.“Byotch, you need footwear to go with that,” Bambi reminded her then he showed her a pair of 6-inch mesh platforms.Checking the size, Jada took it from him and placed it on the counter as well, “Perfect,” she muttered as the cashier ran her items for checkout.
Lyken already had a few drinks when he got to the venue. He came from his parent's place and had a few drinks with his cousins. But then they had to leave early for the party.“Hey, dude!” Kobe greeted him, and Lyken started introducing his cousins to him. “You ready to party?” he whispered as they entered the club.As soon as they entered, the lights turned off. Kobe led him to the couch and made him sit right in the middle. “Now you wait for the gifts,” he chuckled.Steve passed a glass of whiskey to him. Lyken took a sip and waited until he heard the music playing.‘Showtime!’The spotlight turned to the center of the floor, where two girls stood back to back. Then they turned to face each other. They started kissing before pushing each other away. Then they started walking toward Lyken.He didn’t like the idea of hiring strippers. They’re good for the eyes, but that was it. However, Steve and Robin decided to hire two strippers for the guests.They even told Jada about it, and she
Lyken felt his body stiffen when he heard what Jada said. Instead of explaining herself and apologizing for what she did, she asked him to leave.‘She’s unbelievable!’Jada quietly stood up, faced her closet, and pulled out a pair of pajamas. She started taking her clothes, one by one. She even ripped the fishnet off her body.She stopped her from what she was doing, holding both her wrists down. “What’s wrong with you?” Lyken sneered.She looked straight into his eyes, and Lyken wanted to back down. He saw how cold she was looking at him. ‘What’s happening to her?’“What else do you want me to do? I was considering quitting my career after marrying you because you said you don’t like it when I go out there, dressed up with almost nothing, and other men see me. I allow you to choose my outfit so we won’t argue about anything. Now, what else do you want?” she screamed, tears starting to flow down her cheeks.Lyken heard movements from behind him, it was Honey and the pinks, but he igno
The next day, Jada woke up past lunchtime. It was a Sunday. When she stepped out of her room, Jada saw their friends in the living room. Everyone’s there except for Lyken.“Hi, Ja,” Kobe greeted. “Lyken had to go with his parents to visit his grandparents. But I’m meeting him tonight. We’re talking to a client about a new project. But don’t worry, it won’t get in the way of your wedding.”Jada nodded at him as she sat on the couch. Steve sat next to Jada, reaching for her hand and giving it a light squeeze. “What happened to you guys?” he asked.She lets out a sigh and starts telling them everything. They were all just listening, sighing from time to time.“You just have to talk calmly,” Kobe suggested. Jada nodded at him, and he smiled. “There’s nothing the two of you can’t fix. Compared to what you went through before, this is nothing.”“Exactly! Just stay calm when you talk, both of you! The last time you did, you were at each other’s throats. Of course, nothing good will come out
Lyken’s POV“Baby, what do you want for breakfast?” I asked when I noticed that she was already awake.We’ve already moved to our new house. I had this built two years ago, then two weeks before the wedding, I prepared it for us to move in right after the wedding.“Fried rice and salted egg,” she said as she rolled to her stomach.“Ok then, I’ll ask Lucy to prepare it,” then I stood up, kissed her forehead, and hugged her.“Ew! You smell bad!” she exclaimed as she pushed me away.I creased my forehead, and she looked disgusted. “I… I smell bad?” I asked in disbelief, and she nodded. “Baby, I just took a bath! I’m even wearing the perfume you gifted me!”“Ly, you stink! Go and bathe again!”I scratch the back of my head. I felt embarrassed, but I couldn’t stop myself from chuckling. ‘Is this because of her pregnancy?’To not ruin her mood, I quickly head to the bathroom to wash off the smell of perfume. That’s probably it.Jada waited for me, and when I returned, we went downstairs tog
It’s been two weeks since Lyken proposed, and now, they’re getting married. Yes, today is that day, and Jada could say she’s more than excited.Everyone thought it would take them a few months to walk down the aisle, but when Lyken said it was in two weeks, Jada agreed. There’s no reason not to.‘He loves me, and I feel the same for him. Why should we drag? In all honesty, I've never felt this happy before. Not since Lyken became my boyfriend.’When Jada and Lyken broke up, she thought they couldn’t fix things between them. But thanks to the power of forgiveness, they are where they are now.Just as Demi Moore said, ‘The things people do to each other, they remember. If they stay together, it's not because they forget. It's because they forgive.’And Jada agrees with her. Whether she likes it or not, what happened between Lyken and her will be forever part of their history. That’s something they can’t just erase.However, instead of seeing it as an obstacle, they should see it as a le
Jada was startled when she heard Honey yelling. She wanted to stop her, but she was in full warrior mode, so she didn’t bother.“Hey! Hey, you! Stand up, bitch!” Honey called off the woman as she pulled her arm.The girl sat up, rubbed her eyes, and tried to recognize who was the woman that was harassing her. “Who are you?” she even asked.The blonde girl was about to speak again, but Honey’s palm flew across her face. “You don’t have to know! What you need to do now is to get out of that bed,” Honey continued.When the woman didn’t move, Honey grabbed her by the hair and dragged her out of bed. The blanket covering her fell to the floor, and Jada was relieved when she saw that she was still wearing her bra and pants.“What the fuck is wrong with you?” She screamed as she struggled to stand up. “How dare you hurt me?”Honey slapped her again. She was trying to help the girl get her senses back. The girl with blonde hair touched her face and screamed when she saw bloodstain on her fin
