We had woken up ages ago, and did a little bit of morning exercise. If you get what I mean. Right now, we were sitting outside. Well, Sin was sitting on a chair with me on his lap. We were both enjoying the wonderful view of the ocean as well as the fill of the warm air against our skin. Sin kissed my shoulder, bringing my attention to him. He held my head, pulling me to his never ending kisses. I could never get tired of this. He pulled away, smirking at my red stained face."I wonder how the babies are, I miss them already." I say, resting my head on his shoulder."Don't worry about them, they are safe. I know my mom and your aunt will take good care of them. My mom adores her grandchildren a lot, same as your aunt." Sin runs my back softly."I know, but still" Tears formed around my eyes and I blinked a few times, trying to stop them from falling down."Amore, it's only for three weeks then you can see them again. We don't know when we will ever get the chance to spend time alone
Seven years have passed since I got married to Sin and had the twins. My caring, loving husband and our two lovely children make up my existence, yet I still couldn't believe it.I grinned when I thought of the girls. Alexander and Samantha have been married for five years, and a year after their wedding, Giulia, a beautiful baby girl, was born to the couple. Emma, their youngest child, was born two years ago.Luca and Stephanie recently got married, and they are currently on their honeymoon. She was enjoying herself to the fullest. Luca had brought her to Bora Bora, and she had sent a ton of pictures. You can only imagine my delight when she told me that Luca had proposed to her four months prior.While Athena got married to Lorenzo a year before Samantha and Alexander. They have three beautiful boys and a girl. I'm sure you are wondering how this happened.When Sin and Alexander found out about their relationship, it was chaotic. They argue all the time; Sin and Alexander even went
Luca and StephanieI gulped down my drink and set the glass back on the table. I took a deep breath and then raised my hand to signal the bartender."Another shot," I said.He frowned. "I believe you have had way too much for the night, don’t you think so?"I shook my head quickly, but stopped when it made me feel a bit dizzy."No...pe, another shot."I thought it was wonderful that he continued to display care, but after I patiently waited, he simply groaned and went to get my drink.In the end, his worry wasn't going to help me much. I also knew how to control my alcohol intake while always being the good girl. I was a little tipsy, but not at all intoxicated.After a while, I was certain I had had a little too much to drink, but I still wasn't intoxicated enough.I need to head back to my home; now that Mani is touring the world, the apartment we shared for nearly five years feels empty.It’s been three months since she left, but I still haven’t found a roommate I feel comfortable
Athena And LorenzoI could be doing anything with the rest of my day, probably watching Netflix and chilling, if I was up for a bit of fun, I could always go clubbing. But that wasn’t the case tonight; instead, I was being prepped for a ball I wished not to attend.Only if there was a way to escape having to attend and watch those pretentious fuckers pretend to get along with each other."Do you really need me there?" I asked, letting out yet another sigh."Of course I do," Bella, my childhood best friend, responded, giving me a pleading look. "I can’t do this by myself; it's torture having to go there and pretend to care. I need you there, Athena.""Why don’t you just skip this year's ball? I’m sure your parents won't mind."Bella sighed exasperatedly. "I wish I could, but my dad is too stubborn to listen to reasons, he is running for a political position and wishes I would accompany him since my brother can’t attend this year. I'm really hating the fact that he had to go on a busine
Samantha and AlexanderI was feeling devastated, and I couldn't help but blame myself for what had happened to Mani. If only I had not gone out this morning, if only I had kept to my routine and brought her meal up to her room like I usually did these past few days, then she wouldn’t have gotten kidnapped. especially not when she was pregnant.No..None of this would have happened if only I had given her the chance to explain when she first pleaded with me. Maybe then we would have figured out who was betraying us, and now we had to work faster at finding her before something bad happened.Sighing, I swing my legs, which were deep inside the pool water, while wiping the tears from my face. I couldn’t remember the last time I had cried this much. Was it those times when I struggled to stay alive as my father carried on with his assault, or the time he...Shaking the thought off my head, I try not to think about the past, knowing it would bring nothing but pain and nightmares."You have
Normani ParkerLazily, i rolled out of the warm and cosy bed when I heard the sound of the marvellous alarm clock.Note the sarcasm.I slam my hand on my stupid alarm, yelling for me to go to school. I feel so lazy today. Who am I kidding? I feel lazy literally every day. I curled into a ball and went under the sheets, pressing my head on my comfortable pillow.While letting out a disapproving groaned, I lifted myself up from the bed. After tiding up my room, I dragged myself to the bathroom, slamming the door as I turned on the shower, waited for it to get to the right temperature before taking off my pyjamas and hoping to shower, and ended up shaving my legs. Twenty minutes later, I came out with wet hair and smelling like vanilla.I chose a blue jumpsuit that reached my mid-thigh and had a bow at the waist because I wanted to stand out. I applied a moisturizer to my face, then a little bit of eyeliner, making my blue eyes pop out, and also applied my strawberry lip-gloss. I tied my
After an hour of getting primed and plucked by Steph, she handed me a black short dress and heels that no doubt I would have trouble walking on. I put all my essentials in a tiny bag she gave me, and I must say she really outdid herself; I looked breathtakingly beautiful." Are you sure that is me and not someone else?" I asked, stunned as I stared at my reflection in the mirror." It is you, Mani. I just enhance the beautiful features you have naturally." She says back to me, "Now let's go; we don't want to be late." She grabs my hand and drags me out of my room towards the main door.The drive to club was filled with a lot of cheer and squeal, mostly from Stephanie, since she was the energetic one of us two right now.I clutched onto Stephanie's hand as we walked into the club. My fear increased as we took a step. Out of all the places Steph had taken us to, this was by far the most impressive and expensive. The club was pitch black. We wouldn't have seen anything if not for the bri
It has been a month since Steph and I went to the club and I was finally done with the semester's exams. I still have one more week due to my assigned project and I'm done with school. I can finally graduate and then start my internship as a doctor.We were already at the beginning of summer, making the weather so hot and working as a per-time worker as a waitress in one of the most popular restaurants, V°I°P, didn't make it easy at all. I could feel the sweat gathering under my white shirt; my forehead needed constant wiping; and I was pretty sure my makeup was a mess at this point." Normani, table six and nine please"" Coming right up, Mrs. Smith," I said as I smiled at her, which she gracefully returned. She is the manager and a very good and kind one, which makes both the workers and the customers love her.I walked into the kitchen to meet her as she gestured to four plates that were lined up on a stainless steel surface. I managed to balance all four plates on my hands, and I
