"Missus Isla?" She called for my attention. I flipped my first pancake for a moment then turned my head back at her."Do you really love him?" She asked out of the blue, her questions seem to be hiding a code that she wants me to decipher and I frowned because of that."Of course. I'd never marry him if I didn't...I love him so much." I muttered proudly. She opens her mouth and seems like she has something more to say but decides not to as we hear a footsteps as well as voices of Nicholas and Beryl mixed with their giggles."Good morning Mom." Beryl greeted me with a wide smile and kissed me before pulling herself up from the chair.With his pajamas and white shirt and messy hair on. Nicholas approached me for his morning kiss too."You were up earlier than usual. I woke up without you by my side. I don't like it when you do that." He said sullenly then sneered at Beryl who was quietly pouring juice into her glass.His arms were wrapped around my waist possessively as I continued cook
"Where are you really going to take me?" I shouted at them and tried hard to remove the tie from my hand.My heart beats drastically as a private plane welcomed my sight upon removing my blindfold."Give me back to my family! Let me go!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. Kio scratched the back of his neck then walked over to me and picked me up like a sack of potatoes.My body was hanging on his shoulder and my face was hitting his back. No matter how hard I tried to hit his back. He remained unfazed.He didn't even notice that I was hurting him.This is so frustrating!After I sat down. He gracefully stood in front of me and stretched his arm and shoulder."If you wanna go back to your family as soon as possible then just talk to him because one thing is for sure. Kairos won't let go of you until he got what he wanted with you." He said then he signaled two men to get off the private plane with him.I am sure by now that Nicholas knows about this. I'm sure he's already working o
It was such a gloomy day for Isla. She doesn't know who to believe and trust anymore. A part of her doesn't want to doubt her husband since he's always giving her the best, but what if the Kairos is telling her the truth? That thought lingers on her mind for almost an hour now.How can a perfect husband and father like Nicholas lie to her?The door of a room where she's staying since they arrived about an hour ago in this isolated island creaked open.Isla frantically took a step back as she saw him with his eyes darkened into oblivion and clenched jaws.Kairos looks like he have this hatred against everyone and compare to Nicholas. Isla can't be blame if she'll choose to take Nicholas side over the Kairos."I cooked something downstairs. Aren't you hungry yet?" Kairos said in his gentle voice then he put his right hand on his pocket. The silent ate them up as Isla remained silent, gawking at him.Kairos smiled which made Isla blink as if she had just now come to her senses."I'm n
"Seriously though. You should tell me what it is. Unless you finally lost your mind hence you're laughing by yourself." Isla told the Kairos with an irritated voice. He release a set of new set of laughter at that."Its just that calderata is the first dish that you cooked for me back when we're still together and of course you can't remember that." He said. Isla nodded at what he had told her and then she started to eat quietly."Can you tell me things about her?" He asked out of the blue. Isla stopped eating her food as she suddenly felt a pinch of guilt and pity for Kairos.She is almost there. She is about to believe that Beryl is her daughter with Kairos and not with Nicholas and if that's the truth then she finds it heart breaking that Kairos knows nothing about her.She placed the cutlery on her plate and looked at Kairos."She likes to watch cartoons and anime, she's fond of eating Chinese cuisines.""We're the same." Kairos commented. Isla nodded at him and flashed a weak
Wearing a simple sweatpants and a black crew neck shirt. Kairos came to me and sat on the edge of the bed."You lost consciousness. I'll have a Doctor come here tomorrow." He said that I just nodded at because I am still thinking about the dream that I had before."Why did we break up? Is it true that you wanted to divorce me to marry Rory Spencer?" I asked him. He was silent and with a pleading look in his eyes he just looked at me. His eyes were telling me to stop asking and I don't understand why.He shook his head and sighed."I don't want to answer any of that right now, Isla. I'm afraid that you lost your consciousness earlier because you were forcing yourself to remember something." Kairos stood up and started walking away from me. I was quick to grab his hand and made him stop from leaving."I am fine. Please, just tell me. I want to know the truth. If Nicholas is lying at me all this time then I deserve a truth from you." I whispered to convince him. He shook his head o
"If you want I can go and swim with you. I'll help you build a sand castle too." Kairos quickly wore a forced smile as he offered himself to Beryl.If Kairos happens to have a proof that Beryl is his and not Nicholas. I'd be sorry for the way he is hurting right now as he hear his daughter yearns for someone else's fatherly affection."But I want to do it with Dad." She muttered. Beryl walked back inside of the room with slumped shoulders and then she find her way back to her bed. She even covered her body and face with the comforter to hide from us as she tries to prove her point."I'm feeling sleepy. You may leave me now." She said in whisper. I didn't bother talking to her anymore and stepped out of the room like she wanted."I-I'm sorry." I told him with a shaking voice. I don't know what else to say after those words, but one thing is for sure.He deserves a sorry, I guess.If I were in his position. Maybe my eyes would have been red from crying. Kairos forced a smile and playf
"Kairos!" He only smiled at me and shrugged his shoulders before leaning behind the closed door."I'll get dressed." I said that made him grin even more."Go ahead." He casually said. Annoyed, I just took my clothes that were on the bed and walked into the comfort room. "Come on! It's not like I haven't seen your body before." He said still teasing me even after I've closed the door."Baby, why would you be ashame to show me your body? I already know what it look like. It's etch in my head."I am not ashame to flaunt my body around you. I just don't want you to lust over my body with each chance that you get to have." I growled at him. Kairos eyes spark in mischief at my retort. I quickly felt nervous. He took a step towards me and I took a step backward like my instinct told me to do so."Yes, I was and still attracted to you. Yes, I longed for you. Is it my this my fault huh, Iris?" He asked me in a seductive voice. I looked away and gulped.Using his fingers. He guideded m
"What did he say?" Kairos asked curiously.He came closer to me and memories of us kissing came rushing back into my head. I suddenly became conscious of the distance between us."He did not say anything." I murmured and searched for his eyes only to find it staring directly at my neck.I grabbed the chain of the locket that I had around my neck."Where did you get that?" He asked. His voice is full of authority making me afraid of him. It was as if he would suddenly go feral any time from now if I gave him the wrong answer."It's mine." I stuttered as I showed it to him. His jaw clenched and the seriousness of his eyes was unparalleled.I opened the locket and smiled again when I saw a younger version of me that looks exactly like Beryl now."I saw it in my stuff. I assumed that it was mine since the picture in the locket is me. I asked him who gave it to me..." I paused talking for seconds and stared at him. His eyes remained emotionless as he continued giving me cold stares
