REMOVING her phone from her pocket, her gaze lingered on it. She wanted to call her mother-in-law to know how things were in the hospital. She could not help but feel worried. Thoughts after thoughts and what ifs made her mind so busy at that time, that even though she wasn’t feeling well, she could not put herself to rest on the bed.

In the living room, Michelle paced slowly back and forth, practicing breathing exercises while organizing her haywire mind. Her father told her not to think negatively, telling her that there would be great news when Ethan and Marsha went home.

"You’re overthinking it, sweetheart," Gregory said as the old man watched her from the couch.

"Ethan is a bit fragile. I’m worried that if he heard bad news, he’d breakdown."

"That isn’t the Ethan I used to know."

"I know, Dad. But his conditions make him a different person now."

Gregory arched his brow. "So you think he’s a different person now because of his condition?"

Michelle bit her lower lip and stopped wha

    “YOU’VE got this, Daddy! You’re going to see the colors of the world again!”Marsha’s optimism was so lovely to witness. Michelle crossed her arms against her chest, leaning on the doorframe of their daughter’s bedroom. She was right there, watching how her husband tucked Marsha on the bed. The way he caressed her little cheeks and pinched them gently brought warmth to her heart.Marsha giggled. “Daddy, are you excited to see me?”“Of course, I am. I want to see these chubby cheeks.” Ethan pinched Marsha’s cheek again that made the little girl laughed. “And I want to see my daughter’s pretty face.”“I am pretty because I inherited your eyes, Daddy!”“What’s the color of our eyes then?” Ethan curiously asked.“Mommy said they are marble gray!”“Hmm, marble gray... that’s interesting. I think it fits you well,” Ethan said and tickled their daughter once more before he kissed her forehead. “Time to sleep, princess. You have to beauty rest. Tomorrow, you promise to exercise with me.”“Oka

    THEY were all staring at her when she woke up on the hospital bed the next day. Her father, husband and daughter, and even Ethan’s parents were in the room and seemed to have waited for her to wake up.Michelle’s eyes widened in surprise and she tried to sit upright. Selene came to her to guide her like she was a fragile glass. “Careful,” her mother-in-law told her.“Are you feeling better, Mich?” her father-in-law asked.All she did was nod, and gaze at them with utter guilt that she made them all worry. She tried really hard not to get involved in any trouble that would cause her to be in the hospital after dealing with all the criminal cases of the people who have hurt her family, but a simple cramp made her falter.“I’m sorry if I made you all worry,” Michelle stated politely. “I didn’t mean to—”Selene gently tapped her arm, pouting her lips. “What are you saying? No need to say sorry because as a family, it’s our responsibility to look after each other.”A small smile escaped he

    The restaurant had a good ambiance that it literally boosted Michelle’s mood the moment they entered inside. They were assisted in a big table that could accommodate the four of them. After ordering some food she craved the most, her eyes roamed around, feasting on the stylish interior designs of the restaurant.Marsha was sitting on Ethan’s lap. The two kept playing, tickling each other. Michelle watched them and couldn’t get happier that despite Ethan’s conditions, he never abandoned their daughter. If there was one person that was extremely happy when he went back, it was none other than their daughter who longed for him so much.“Pasta! Pasta!” Marsha cheered when their orders arrived.The table was filled with laughter and conversations as they ate their food. Michelle already forgot the situation she had last night as the pasta she ordered was so good that it comforted her stomach. They were down to finishing their drinks and dessert when the table next to them caught their atte

    “YOU’RE NOT allowed to come out of this room, Mommy!”Marsha pouted her lips, putting her arms on both side of her hips as she glanced up at her. Michelle frowned a bit, confused as to why her little girl acted that way. Crouching down, she narrowed her eyes and stared down at Marsha carefully.“And why shouldn’t I come out of this room, sweetheart?”“That’s because I say so,” Marsha uttered firmly, the strictness in her voice was evident but Michelle found it amusing that she could not help but smile.“Hmm, I don’t understand. Did I do something wrong that pissed you out?”Marsha shook her head, crossing her arms against her chest this time and stomping her feet as if telling Michelle that she must follow her, otherwise she’d be punished. Laughter escaped her throat. Marsha looked very much her father with how the little girl glanced up at her with those marble gray eyes.“You have to obey me, Mommy!”“But Mommy is thirsty. I want to refill this pincher.” She showed her the pincher s

    SHIT. SHIT SHIT... she thought.Michelle was suddenly nervous that Ethan decided to date her in their garden. It felt surreal that the man would do something like that, thinking that he was still suffering from his conditions. However, he did impress her and she couldn’t help the tears to form on both sides of her eyes.“I hope you didn’t mind having dinner with me here outside,” Ethan said, sounded a bit nervous too.Michelle shook her head. She didn’t mind at all. In fact, she loved it. It was heart-felt moment. After all those miserable events that happened a few months back, she thought they both needed a romantic dinner; they both needed to unwind and do something to rekindle their missing romance.“I don’t mind...” she said in a hush, swallowing so hard as she stared at him dreamily. “It’s quite a surprise but I love it.”“I’m glad you do.” Ethan pursed his lips, as if the man was trying to hide his smile but failed as Michelle noticed it.“Alright!” Marsha clapped her hands. “T

    "GREAT NEWS! All of his laboratory results show that he is perfectly fit to undergo the surgery!" Selene Steinfield squealed the moment she entered the VIP room of the hospital they were at.Michelle was sitting on the couch next to the hospital bed where Ethan was sitting. Happiness could be seen in her in-laws’ expressions, even in Ethan and Marsha. She was happy, too. However, she could never hide the nervousness engulfing her chest at that very moment.Ethan would undergo an eye surgery by the next day. Michelle could hardly sleep thinking about how the surgery would go. She was afraid deep within. What if the surgery fails? It would surely cause real emotional damage to her husband, and she didn’t have the nerve to see it happen.She glanced at Ethan and saw the delight radiating in his marble gray eyes. He was excited and hopeful. He never stopped talking about her how he wished to see the colourful world. He never stopped telling her how he was looking forward to the surgery. H

    ETHAN could feel the cold lingering over his skin. His family already left. The only person who would stay with him was his mother, who then went out to talk to his doctors regarding the surgery that would happen the next day.He was damn nervous, extremely nervous to the extent that he felt as if his ribcage would explode as he could really feel the loud beating of his heart. He hadn’t felt such emotions before, even after going through a lot of things before he got to be with his real family.Truth be told, he wanted to be okay. He wanted to be able to see, so much, that even though the idea of a surgery scared him, he’d push it through any way.Seeing the darkness wasn’t cool. He just got used to it, but it didn’t mean that he liked it. There were no words that would be better to describe his situation other than the word: worse. He wanted to see his daughter, but he couldn’t. He wanted to see his wife and memorize every feature of her face, but he couldn’t. The blindness he was in

    HE COULD feel a sense of nervousness creeping over his skin as he woke up that morning. A week had passed, and that day would be the very day that he’d be able to find out whether the surgery was really a success or not. Ethan clasped his hands together beneath the duvet, deeply praying that it would turn out as well as he’d wanted to see for such a long time already.The doctor came in right after he had his breakfast. His parents were present in the room. Michelle and Marsha weren’t there to witness the result of the surgery, as his wife needed to be well rested. The woman had called him earlier and told him how she wanted to visit him in the hospital, but given her pregnancy, she was advised to stay at home. He promised he would update her, though."How are you doing, Mr. Steinfield?" The doctor asked, sounding too optimistic.He smiled despite how anxious he was. "I’m doing very well. The nurses are taking care of me.""Did you feel any strange feeling or sting in your eyes?"He s

    "THE VICTIMS were sent to the hospital for proper treatment," the cops told her the moment she arrived in the area where the accident happened. Michelle could not stop crying and asked the policeman which hospital her husband had been brought to, driving immediately as soon as she got the answer she needed. She dialed Megan’s phone number and informed her best friend about the name of the hospital so she could follow because she knew that Andrew also needed her. When she arrived in the hospital, she felt nothing but the dreadful feeling coursing through her. She wanted to compose herself, but her mind was already haywire because of all the worry she had for her husband. It felt like the rest of the world stopped revolving, and all she did was run and run... "Two victims of a car accident were sent to this hospital. Where are they?" she managed to ask the front desk officer. "How are you related to the victims, Ma’am?" "I am the wife of one of them," she answered, taking a deep bre

    MICHELLE walked down the stairs with Marcus in her arms. She just finished breastfeeding him and now wanted to hang out with the people in the garden.The Steinfields, her father, and Megan were all out there, preparing for the New Year’s Eve that they would celebrate that night. They all came together to welcome another New Year, and she could not be more thankful that these people came to their house to join them for another chapter of their lives."Look at that little pumpkin. He has gotten bigger, Mich," Gregory commented and immediately took his grandson from her arms.Michelle giggled. "That baby loves to sleep and eat every single time.""He looks definitely like you when you were a baby.""I believe he definitely looks like Ethan. See those marble gray eyes, Dad?"Gregory chuckled. "Well, eyes won’t lie, I guess.""Of course, Dad."She could not help but smile seeing her father try to make Marcus giggle by making faces. It was such an adorable sight, and she felt honored to wi

    SHE glanced around the men's boutique, her curious eyes efficiently trying to find good clothes or anything she could give Ethan as a gift for their year-end party. Ethan already had anything; name it and anyone would find it in his vast walk-in closet. That being said, Michelle was having difficulty deciding on the best gift she could give him—that one thing that would make him smile and surprise him."There are so many designer shoes at that corner. But I don’t know which one is good for Andrew," Megan stated, and it was followed with a sigh of defeat. "God, why is it so hard to find gifts for men?"Michelle laughed a bit. She could relate, as she was having difficulty choosing too. It just so happened that they both married men who had everything, so every year they’d end up cracking their heads trying to get them nice gifts."Are you able to choose anything?" Megan curiously asked her.She shook her head, pouting her lips. "Not yet. I don’t think work suits would be a good gift. H

    HE brushed his fingertips over the soft angles of his wife’s face and could not help but adore every feature she had. It was his morning routine whenever he got to wake up first in the morning, and he would find his wife still sleeping soundly next to him.Needless to say, he’d become easily addicted to her and to this kind of morning with her. Her strawberry scent that kept him enticed every single day, her soft skin that kept him warm at nights, her laughter and soft touches that kept him sated and content, and her presence that made his world colorfulHe had no idea that a man like him, who had amnesia, could be in love so hard; madly and deeply. However, he wanted to treasure that moment at all costs. This kind of beauty in his life needed to be protected and kept.Michelle’s forehead formed a knot as she lifted her head. A soft moan escaped her closed mouth, which made him smile. Seconds later, she slowly opened her eyes and met his intent gaze."Good morning," he murmured under

    "YOU’RE making me crave for sex," Ethan said, kissing her neck and sucking her skin sensually.Michelle’s lips parted. She was in deep pleasure, and whenever Ethan would say things like that, a big lustful part of her was getting more aroused.Her hands traveled around his firm back. She touched the muscles he had there. A moan escaped her lips when Ethan bit her neck firmly, making her dig her nails over her bare skin. She bit her lower lip and shut her eyes, but when Ethan claimed her lips again, everything went so fuzzy.It didn’t take long before the man was able to strip her naked. The cold air brushed against her skin, making her shiver. But when Ethan pulled up to stare at—admire—her naked body, she felt the scorching heat go to her. He looked at her as if she were a piece of beautiful art. The gleaming desire to take her was evident in his marble gray eyes, and the smile of contentment that curled in his lips gave her more confidence."You’re beautiful, Mich..." Ethan said bre

    The ring of her cell phone jolted her awake. With a forehead crease, Michelle rose up and quickly turned off the alarm on her cell phone. It was already 6 o’clock in the morning. She hadn’t been able to sleep for at least six hours, but she had to get up and follow the "mom on call" schedule to better take care of her little sunshine—none other than Eionn Marcus.It had been what? A month had passed when she gave birth to their second child, and Michelle could still feel the excitement getting through her whenever she would walk into the nursery room, open the curtained windows to let the sunlight lighten up the entire solemn place, and wake up her little one by planting kisses on his fluffy cheeks.It had been her morning routine. She was strictly following the "mom on call" schedule because it wasn’t only giving her much time to bond with her baby but also making sure that Marcus’ health was always a top priority."Good morning, my little sunshine..." she greeted her baby with a hea

    THE CAR was filled with her whimpers, cries and screams. Her nails dug over the leather seat in the passenger seat. She was lying down there, making a few deep breaths to relax herself but the great amount of pain consuming her entire body was making her ballistic and a mess.Beads of sweat had formed on her forehead. Her legs and belly were both getting numb as the minutes passed by. Ethan was driving the car so fast, completely alarmed by her situation. He was panicking so much, and so even she was in great pain, she reminded him to drive carefully as she didn’t want them to get into some road accident.“Oh, my God...” she murmured, crying. “I think I’m going to die. He’s coming out. Faster, Ethan!”“Uhm, you just told me to slow down a bit,” Ethan said nervously.“Fuck. I swear this will be the last time you’d be able to impregnate me!” she screamed on the top of her lungs and made a push before she took a few deep breaths again. “I really swear to God—““Calm down, Mich!

    AFTER A MONTH, "WILL you be fine without us?" Michelle looked at her father. At first, she thought that the old man was teasing her, seeing how he curled his lips downward, but she realized that he was actually worried, seeing the worry in his eyes. Still smiling, she took a deep breath and softened her expression as she looked at her father, who she hadn't realized had become more frail as time passed. She was so busy with her life that she wasn’t able to watch out for her father. Distracted by what life had thrown her way, she didn’t notice that her father was really getting older. "I’m going to be fine." She checked over her shoulder and found Ethan, who was fixing a chandelier’s light bulb in the living room. "Ethan will be here, so you shouldn’t worry that much. I hope you and Marsha would enjoy hanging out." Her old man laughed heartily, shaking his head. He and Marsha would go to the school where they enrolled the little girl. It was going to be Marsha’s first day in her ne

    "GOSH, you have to calm down, Mich!" Megan said.Michelle shook her head, pacing back and forth in the living room. Her mother-in-law called an hour ago, saying that they would send Ethan back home. Selene did not mention whether the result of the surgery turned out well or not, so she could not calm down a bit even though the people around her were telling her to do so.Megan and Andrew came to visit as they were excited to find out how the surgery went. All of them were in the living room, waiting for her husband to arrive. Holding her pregnant belly, she didn’t stop walking around, getting very impatient as she wanted to know how the surgery turned out for Ethan."I don’t understand why Mom didn’t tell me how it went," she said and stopped in front of them, biting her fingernails. "Do you think it went bad and that’s why she couldn’t tell me?""We can’t assume, Mich," her father said, sipping on his coffee."Your Dad is right.
