......

I lay in bed, staring up at the ceiling, unable to sleep. The soft glow of the moon seeped through my curtains, casting a faint silhouette on the wall. It was one of those nights where my mind refused to quiet down, consumed by thoughts of him.

Is he okay?

He seems okay

The was smiling a beautiful smile

My thoughts danced around his image, his face etched into my mind. I could recall the curve of his smile, the warmth that suddenly, appeared in his eyes, and the way his subtle chuckle echoed in my ears. It was as if every thought, every memory of him, was painted with vibrant colors, vivid and alive.

As I lay there, my mind wandered through the moments we had shared together. The Tears he made me shed which seems like I have completely forgotten and forgive him for, the conversations that often led to banter, and the countless stolen glances. I replayed each scene in my head, relishing in the confusion that those memories brought me.

But alongside the confusion, there was a h

    ...I slowly opened my eyes and found myself in a hospital bed, surrounded by the sterile scent of disinfectant. The soft hum of medical equipment filled the room, and my memories started to piece together as I tried to recall what led me here.Slowly I rise from the bed still piecing my thoughts together, my hand placed on my head for support as I noticed the door opening, an unfamiliar face, a nurse or even a doctor perhaps."You are awake," she said with a smile approaching me while I nodded."Where is Max?" I asked before I could even hold myself back "You mean your husband? He will be here soon," She said with a smile.I watched closely as she tried to feel me up probably checking my temperature, I watched and waited till she is done."What exactly happened to me?" I asked her "You fainted this morning," she explained "I already figured, I mean what could have resulted to me fainting?" I asked while she smiled, maybe it is just how nurses and doctors are trained but having a s

    ...I honestly do not understand what I am still doing at the hospital for I feel completely fine. "Do you know if Your boss is still in the hospital?" I asked Cecilia "You mean Master?" she asked while I just nodded, no matter how often I hear that word I can't seem to be used to it."I have no idea," she says while I got up from the bed that I have now grown tired from sitting on."Do you plan on going somewhere, you need rest.""I have had more than enough of it, I want to see mother-in-law," I said while walking ahead of her."I don't know...""It's totally okay Cecelia, me and her who do you think is in a more critical condition?" I asked while she appears defeated."If you insist," she murmured following me behind On getting to the door of her room, the door opened right in front of me to show Seraphina coming out of the room.I swallowed down the frown trying to force its way to my face."Look who we have here," she said with a smile."Excuse me," I said trying to avoid any

    ...For a moment I was confused as I stared at him, what does he mean by that? Then slowly I got my answer."Wait the flower was from you?" I asked in bewilderment "Yes," he answered "How... Am sorry just...," almost not knowing what else to say he replied "I was at the hospital when you were rushed in, and your room is close to that of my sister so...," he explained while I nodded even with the obvious confusion "Oh okay, that's lovely of you," I said "This is my sister, Florance. And Florance this is the friend I told you about." he introduced us, and she smiled slightly before stretching her hands out to me, I took it on the process bending down a bit.There was no resemblance between the two which is okay, not every sibling looks alike, her eye color was a dark brown unlike his green eye color, and her hair color was jet black that it almost looks fake.But she was undeniably very beautiful, I watched as a dimple appears on her left cheek as her smile spread across her face.

    ..."I will ask you again," He said quietly as I swallowed fear taking the best part of me."I can explain," I began organizing my thoughts, how to do I start?"So I wanted fresh air and just came out for fresh air and that was when I came across him," I said in a rush surprised I was able to say that under one breath."oh you must take me for a fool," he said to my surprise followed by a chuckle.A bad type of chuckle, as he began to walk around with his hand in his pocket. "You got to be kidding me, Luna, lies I really can't do this now," he said scratching his head "I swear I am not lying," "Do not!" he raised his voice taking me by surprise "Explain this," He said tossing a ring on the table which rolled over to my side as I hovered over to pick it up. It was my ring, the very same one I was looking for."How did you get this?" I asked genuinely shocked."Wait did Seraphina give you this?" I asked him catching up, I am very sure I left the room with this ring in my hand, I eve

    ...Morning came faster for me, Last night he was out to visit his mother and didn't return, so I wonder if he is back now or still has not returned.Slowly I rolled off the bed and wiggled my way to the door on opening it he passed through me without saying a word his strong cologne filling the air as he walked as if I wasn't there, I immediately followed him.Rehearsing my word within as I bring myself to say it."Can we ta...," my words hung on air on seeing who was seated at the living room.My tongue dried up immediately as I watched her stand up with concern in her eyes reaching out to him."We need to hurry, she will be in..." she paused on seeing me "What is going on?" I asked directly at her with concern but she chose to look away, then the dots begin to connect, his mother? Could it be the surgery?"Max?" I called him but he was long gone again not looking back as Seraphina smiled in my face.That was far from my worries, what could be going on in his head right now? How is

    ..."I really want to go to the hospital," I began hoping he listen."He doesn't want you to leave the premises but...," he said making a glitter of hope appear "I know you want to visit his mother," Nathanial said as if defeated."I will take you," He said, I couldn't help it but smile "Thank you so much," I said sincerely following him behind closely. As I followed him behind I couldn't help but let out a chuckle from time to time, no matter how I think I about it, there was no need for Seraphina to do what she did.It just doesn't sit right with me, I get her not liking me and wanting him but to the extent of faking a conversation, with a voice that apparently is hundred percent mine."You keep hissing," I hear Nathaniel say."Oh," I said turning to face his side."I just don't understand people," I say as he nodded his eyes fixated on the road ahead as he drives."I mean why would do something like that?" I asked not necessarily wanting an answer from him, it is more like venti

    "No," he said looking into my eyes as he moved back detaching completely from me and leaning on the wall opposite me."There is something I want to tell you," I began while he straightened his back leaning off the wall."I don't want to hear anything today, Luna," he said not allowing me to speak, I nodded understanding that indeed now is not the time.He nodded looking at me as if pacing a message, he opened the door going into the room while I stood by the door, I don't know but it's very obvious that the woman I came to visit does not remember me.I watched him stroke her hair and lowering over to kiss her forehead before leaving her side, she was awake I could tell by the way she reached out for his hand before he began to approach.I heard marching legs approaching towards me, I almost panicked but on seeing Nathaniel and a couple of familiar faces I managed to cool off."You know what to do," he said to them before walking away, I stood fixated on the ground watching his perfect

    NARRATOR (SABASTINE's Villa)The screeching sound of the car tires sniffing the sudden halt of the car as Sabastine storms off from the car while his sister follows suit.Without looking back at her, not anybody he began to March towards the front door, his furrowed eyebrow evidence of anger."You are not looking very well," his sister said looking at him intensely as he forced a smile."It's nothing Florence, you need to rest," he said rubbing his head and avoiding looking at her."You are avoiding the topic again aren't you?" she asked with a raised brow and her hands folded together."I can assure you everything is under control," He bluntly lied as she stared at him not believing a single thing he says, she nodded before walking away to her room."Please have enough rest," he said as she continued to walk away."Luke?" he called looking to make sure she was no longer in sight as his assistant appeared from nowhere."Sir," a sterned faced fellow with glasses answered.On seeing Sa

    (Luna)Just How long has it been? I have long stopped counting. Just kidding, it's been ages and I am no longer pregnant. Max and I were in for a lot of shock when the twins were born.We intentionally never went and asked for the gender but we were sure at the scanning all we saw was one baby. Even without expecting it, we were the happiest.My two beautiful angels, they still look nothing like me though, although Mother assured me they would pick up my features as they grow up. Speaking of Mother, I meant Max's mother, I am still working on the relationship with my mother. It did break me at a point, when I realized I myself was one of a twin. I couldn't remain neutral after learning that I was a twin and sadly she is no more. And both she and my father robbed me of the opportunity to bond with her. Not even once did I get to see her, neither did she know of my existence and you might have guessed who my twin was.... Yes, Lucy. The same Lucy Sabastine was in love with was my tw

    (The End)"You love me?" was all I could muster as an overwhelming rush of happiness slowly seeped into my entire body. He was talking but all I could see was his mouth moving as his voice faded.It was an out-of-body experience as I tried to stand still, resisting myself from jumping up and down from joy."Say something please," I heard him say with a wild smile across my face."I don't know what to say" I answered truthfully as my cheeks continued to hit up."So does this change your answer?" he asked, attempting to hold my hands, his hands trembling as I held his sweaty hands. His gaze was mesmerizing. How come I didn't see all of this? It was all in front of me. Perhaps I hold him in such a high place that I think it's not possible for a man like him to feel something like love."You are Nervous," I said as he smiled awkwardly."Perhaps I am," he replied as I looked around again."You prepared all of this with Hervey?" I asked. All this while he went out with Hervey thi

    I stood with my jaw on the floor, utterly stunned by the beautifully decorated scene before me. The backyard had been transformed into a romantic haven, with soft fairy lights hanging from the trees, flowers adorning the tables, and a cozy dining area for two set under a canopy.Slowly, my lips curled up into a smile as I took in the breathtaking sight. It was a vision of romance and thoughtfulness that took my breath away. I couldn't believe my eyes."Max?" I called him, taking a step forward looking around.As I tried to process this enchanting setup, my heart raced with anticipation. It felt like a dream, a fantasy brought to life in the most delightful way. The air was filled with a gentle breeze, and the ambiance was so perfect that it seemed almost surreal.Turning to Max, I couldn't contain my excitement. "What's happening?" I asked, my voice filled with a mixture of joy and disbelief. "Did you just set up a date for us in your own backyard?""Our backyard," he corrected, his e

    ...The sound of birds chirping became clearer as I slowly opened my eyes, I stretched my hand searching for a as I opened my eyes. He wasn't lying beside me.Slowly I rose from bed, scratching my eyes a bit disappointed that Mac wasn't in the room. I sat down watching the clock trying to figure out just for how long I had slept.The door swung open as I peeked forward to see Max enter with his back, a bit confused I watched waiting for him to turn around before I figured out he was carrying with him a tray of food. "Max," I called him with a smile as he approached."You are awake now?" he said, dropping the tray by the side as I looked to see what it was. Oatmeal with fresh berries and nuts."You wanted to surprise you," he said sitting by the bed with a smile on his face, I couldn't stop smiling as I looked at the food."Breakfast in bed?" I asked while he nodded proud of himself."You don't like it? " he asked, his voice carrying a hint of concern as he stared at me. "I made it wi

    ....I sat beneath a delicate canopy in the garden, surrounded by a riot of vibrant flowers that swayed gently in the breeze. The scent of blooms, sweet and intoxicating, enveloped me in a fragrant embrace. The dappled sunlight filtered through the leaves overhead, casting a warm and comforting glow.It was a serene haven, a sanctuary of nature's beauty. Each flower seemed to tell a story, its petals a canvas of colors that whispered tales of growth and resilience. Bees and butterflies danced from one bloom to another, their delicate movements adding to the garden's lively symphony.As I sat there, my fingers trailed along the soft petals of a nearby blossom, feeling the delicate texture beneath my touch. The world beyond this tranquil space seemed to fade away, leaving me with a profound sense of peace and contentment.The gentle rustle of leaves in the breeze, the chirping of birds in the distance, and the soft hum of nature's chorus became a soothing soundtrack to my thoughts. In t

    ...."We can come along," Harrison said as I stood by the door smiling as they all came outside to escort me."No, you are not coming along Harrison," Max said sharply at him while I chuckled."I hope it's a girl," Hervey commented, smiling as she stared at my tummy. Even without mentioning it to her she already knew that I was pregnant. By surprise in Harrison's eyes, it was obvious they knew nothing about it even Cecilia immediately looked at my tummy."Let's go," Max said, holding my hand as he led me to the car."I'm so sorry, I had no idea they were coming," he apologized while I shook my head."No I don't mind, I like them," I said as he frowned. Pouting his lips."They are friends and your family," I said as he nodded."They will stress you, especially Harrison," he said while I smiled."Am not stressed at all I like that they are here, your house is too big and enough to hold in more people, they would be of good company," I said "Am I not a good company?" he asked as I let o

    I stood in the shower, the warm water cascading down my back like a gentle waterfall. The feeling of the water against my skin was pure bliss, and for the first time in a long while, I was in a remarkably good mood.I tilted my head back, letting the water drench my hair. As I ran my hand through the wet strands, I could feel the tension of the past days slowly melting away. The sensation of the water rushing over me was like a soothing balm, washing away the weight of the past and leaving me feeling refreshed and renewed.With each stroke of my fingers through my hair, I pushed the water backward, reveling in the simple pleasure of the shower. It was a moment of solitude and self-care, a reminder that life had its moments of serenity and tranquility.As the water continued to envelop me, I closed my eyes, savoring the warmth and the sense of well-being that it brought. The worries and uncertainties of the past were momentarily forgotten, and in that instant, all that mattered was the

    ...The strong hand across my chest wasn't bulging no matter how many times I stirred in my sleep probably waking him up countless times but he held me close making me use his other hand as a pillow.The sunlight has illuminated the room, it was morning already and my eyes hadn't opened to a dream or even worse a nightmare. Rather, the warm embrace and sweet smile from my man. Perhaps I am being too forward by calling him my man. But for as long as I am beside him. He is my man.My eyes couldn't leave his face as still was deep in his sleep, his eyes shut closed as I slowly raised his arm making him lay flat with his two hands spread on the bed.My eyes marveled at how tanned he had gotten with nice veins running all the way from his shoulder to his hands. I have never noticed this many details in his body. I cupped his chest sizing it to my small breast. If he continues to work out he might become my competition soon in the department of chest area.Slowly I began to notice the tiny

    My breath hitched as I struggled to catch my breath. For some reason, the minty breath from him drove me insane as my hands traveled around my body roaming in the right places.Foggy, dizzy, lightheaded I couldn't stand still as my knees buckled. Finally, I ruffled his hair, and slowly his pacing began rougher and more urgent. As his tongue fluttered against mine. His hand pulled me closer and closer. No matter how much he pulled it felt like it was never going to be enough. If it were possible I wish to be inside him. Inside his skin.His cold body has turned warm in a minute, vulnerable I felt in his arms, the warmth from his body comforting like a safe coven.Pausing to catch my breath I couldn't control myself as I nibbled on his chin before I could stop myself. He nibbled on my ears, moving to my very sensitive neck. Again our faces apart as I stared at him my eyes barely opened."You feel so good," he murmured as I stared mesmerized."Just how long has it been, I have longed so
