Ericka was watching her husband while he was talking on the phone. Based on his reaction and the smile on his face, she could discern that it was good news. Now, she was wondering who it could be. She waited until her husband was done talking on the phone and until they got inside the elevator."Hon…" Shawn immediately called and hugged her. However, the elevator suddenly opened because they were already on the ground floor. "I'm sorry, I just got excited!" He added without removing his arms that were wrapping around her body despite the fact that they were in front of their employees who were waiting to use the elevator.They both smiled at everyone before they exited the lift."What is it?" She asked while they were heading to the restaurant in the same building they were in.Couldn’t wait, Ericka asked again, "Who is the caller?""It's Rica's doctor. He informed us that surgery would be held after tomorrow. The donor wanted it to ha
They arrived home and found Nanny Maria, Nimfa, and Rica in the living room. They were all watching television while Rica was hugging the toy given to her by her said new friend."Mommy… Daddy…" Rica called out as soon as she saw her parents.Nimfa looked at where Rica was looking and greeted as well, "Good evening, Mr. Shawn and Ms. Ericka.""Good evening," Both Shawn and Ericka replied in unison."How's our baby?" Ericka asked and kissed her daughter."I'm good, Mommy. Is it true that we are going back to the hospital?" Rica asked with curiosity."Yeah, Baby. It would be best if you saw the doctor tomorrow, and we are going to stay there for a while," she explained."And after that… We are going home because your Mommy and I are going to hold our wedding, and you will be our flower girl," Shawn happily announced to Rica.Rica’s eyes widened in excitement upon hearing the good news. "Wow… I'm going to wear a gown. A pretty gown?""Yes, Baby, a pretty gown. It will be like what Mommy
Carol couldn't explain her feelings upon seeing the daughter of her employer, Ericka. She was a newly hired employee by the vice president of Holmes group. She was able to get her job with the help of her best friend, Dionalyn.Her boss’ daughter, Rica, was cute and adorable. She reminded her of her younger sister, who grew up with her grandmother. As much as she loved her, fate was cruel to them. She was separated from them when her father took her away from her grandmother’s custody after their mother died when they were young.Now, she could only remember what her sister looked like through the old photos that they had taken together when they were younger.“Ms. Ericka, your daughter is so beautiful,” she couldn't hide her admiration. “I remember my younger sister when she was still young,” she added while she was standing next to Ericka.With her words, Ericka couldn’t help but be curious. “Really, you have a sister? How old is she?”“Oh, she is already in her twenties. I’m just t
Nick had no choice but to meet his best friend, Shawn. There was no other person he could share his burden with except his best friend. After calling him the other day at the airport, he found himself standing at the entrance of the Holmes Group company.He went straight to the elevator and pushed the button corresponding to the floor level where his best friend’s office was. As he got closer, his attention was caught up by the woman who was wearing a white long sleeve blouse. Her straight black hair lay down on her back. She had a round angelic face with brown eyes, long eyelashes, a pointed nose, and a heart-shaped head.She was looking at him. Her table was next to the door of the vice president’s office. The woman was no other than Ericka, his best friend’s fiancé.“Good morning, ladies,” he greeted the two women next to the door of Shawn’s office. The woman next to Ericka i
After Carol was hospitalized, they shared a passionate night together. After that, Nick finally had the courage to confess what happened to him and that unknown woman the night before.“Sweetheart, I need to confess something very important to you. L-last night… l got too drunk, and I… I slept with a woman whom I don’t know…”He confessed nervously while looking intently into her eyes as if to show that he felt really guilty and was regretting it.Carol was shocked at what he said. She looked at him with wide eyes as she tried to process his words properly. With a trembling voice, she asked, “You slept with a woman you don’t know?”“Yes, I’m sorry. I had no intention of cheating on you. That’s why I’m here to tell you about it. I love you and want to stay loyal to you because I know you are the same as me. Please forgive me,” he said all that while holding his girlfriend’s hand.He saw the tears streaming out from Carol’s eyes. She nodded her head and touched his face with cold, tremb
Carol was surprised to see that there's no one in the car and that it was opened through the remote that Nick was holding.“I’m sorry… I forgot that I sent my driver back home,” Nick smile sheepishly while looking at her.She smiled in response as she had no other choice but to come with him; just not to disappoint Nick.“Well, we are already here. I trust you, my life is in your hand,” she said with a smile as she motioned towards his car.“Don't worry, I will handle it with care,” Nick replied, and they laughed.Nick opened the car door for her. “Thank you.”“You’re welcome.” Carol was looking at Nick as he walked around the car and entered the driver’s seat.He glanced at her. “Ready?”“Yes,” she replied, nodding her head. At that moment, the car started, and she couldn’t help but frown a little when she heard a sound.“I think you forgot to wear your seatbelt,” Nick reminded and gave her a glance.She looked down, and her eyes widened before she looked at him apologetically. “Oh,
‘Don't worry. Her colleague seems to be a good man,” Nick reassured her after he saw the worry on her face.Carol nodded her head in a daze before she looked at him and suggested, “I hope so.. Do you want to watch a movie while waiting for the rain to stop?”Nick shrugged his shoulders. “Why not?’’Carol took the remote and turned on the television. She had just turned it on when the electricity suddenly shut off.“Oh shit…” she cursed.The entire surroundings became pitch black until Nick turned on his phone’s screen.“I’m sorry. This is the first time this has happened,” she shyly told him.“No worries. Do you have a candle?” he asked, looking around.“Well, as I've said, this is the first time that this has happened. We don't have anything here. Not even a flashlight,” she said in a low voice, embarrassed.‘’Oh, if that's the case, the torch in my phone will be our only source of light:“Yes. Wait. Let me get my phone. Do you mind if you lend me your phone? I will just get my phone
Carol woke up with heaviness on her chest and legs. From there, she remembered what had happened last night especially when she felt the warm breath fanning on her neck. She gradually turned her head and found the handsome face of Nick beside her. She couldn't help but smile. That was the face of the man who made her feel like a woman. She couldn't count how many times he brought her to the place only a couple could be in.She was staring at Nick who was peacefully sleeping beside her. She could see a smile on his lips. If she's not mistaken, it's a smile of satisfaction. She saw when Nick's eyes moved, so she immediately closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. However, the next thing she felt was a kiss on her lips that made her eyes open instantly,"Good morning, Babe," Nick greeted while smiling."Good morning, what time is it?" she pretended to be unaware."Hmm… I don't know. I just woke up," Nick replied as he pulled her closer to him. Instantly, she could feel the hardness
