[72] We Ride The Big Yellow Dump Truck
最終更新日:
2021-01-25 01:33:46At least one of us seemed to have enjoyed the surprise.
Gray came running outside the house, a huge smile on his face. He had pulled Jade along with him. They both had goofy looks on their faces. Gripped tightly on one of Gray’s hand was the big yellow truck he was playing with moments ago.
For some reason, I can’t share the same excitement that was probably building up inside Gray’s body. Wait, no, actually, I knew the reason. Pinching the bridge of my nose, I sighed and clicked my tongue. Forcing myself to look at Markus, I wave my hand towards the truck, “Please tell me that isn’t a dump truck in front of my parent’s house.”
He nods eagerly, “I could tell you that’s not a dump truck but then I would be l

The Disreputable Love Transaction [73] For The First Time In A Long While, I Was Content With What I Had
All of my siblings had a mixture of disappointed faces once they saw Markus’s pseudo-basement apartment.Olive, Scarlett, and Hazel were respectful enough that they didn’t air their disappointment. With the lack of excitement on their faces, though, I’m sure they were expecting something bigger. Quickly, they took all the bags of our siblings and when I pointed where our room was, they hid themselves inside.Clementine wasn’t as kind. She immediately started walking all around the place, looking inside drawers and cabinets. I glare at her whenever I notice her stuffing things inside her jacket pocket. Didn’t stop her though, in fact, it seemed to fuel her more. She would smirk whenever I caught her.I should teach her a lesson in stealing, she&

Keira smiled lovingly behind the screen of my phone.It had been a long time since we talked about everything that had been going on lately with my life. When I told her that I had moved into Markus’s apartment, she made a fit and went all dramatic. Once I gave her a voucher for a fresh pair of shoes, she immediately went quiet. Now, I was currently telling her about how I’ve already taken in my siblings and as of the moment, we were squatting Markus’s apartment.And that they still didn’t know I was pregnant.She screamed and asked why I was even still pregnant in the first place. Even though I’ve already told her about the contract I made Markus sign, she was still insisting that I should get rid of the thing inside of my belly. To

Ash’s leg was so infected the doctor told us we might have to have it amputated.Markus had been kind enough to bring us to an actual doctor and not just some quack he found online who offered services for free. This was an actual doctor from an actual hospital. Still, Markus being Markus, the doctor was an old family friend and often gave them free consultations.Ash told us that he got wounded after falling off a tree. I was just about to ask him why he was stupid enough to go climb a tree when Red grabbed my hand, stopping me from doing so. With a shake of his head, he dragged me out of the hospital room and talked to me in the hallway.“It was a dare,” He said.“He’s about to lose his leg ov

Markus tapped my knee while we were in the waiting area of the OB-GYN.“Nervous?” He asked, “I am too.”Shaking my head, I sink back into my chair. “No. I’m just worried about Ash.”We were seated in a waiting area that only had an aquarium as a source of entertainment. All around us were couples who lovingly held one another as they waited for their names to be called by the staff to be checked by the obstetrician-gynecologist. Honestly, it made me awkward that we were the only people who weren’t clinging to one another.Even the magazines didn’t intere

“Holy shit, that’s cold!” The doctor rubs the cool gel on my belly, and it was enough to make me squirm. Markus was sitting next to me, looking so out of place. He pursed his lips, his legs crossed, his head down while he’s looking down on his phone again. The doctor giggles at me, “The gel’s supposed to help us see your baby better.”

Markus was lifting the sonogram above his head, a huge smile on his face.“You should hide that,” I say, jabbing him in his side. He clicks his tongue, stepping away from me, still the sonogram above his head. “My brother’s about to meet us any minute. You wouldn’t want them to see that, would you?”

“And so, imagine my surprise when I found out that he was actually the dean’s son!” Hazel said, waving her arms in the air dramatically. She always does this whenever she’s talking and wants all of us to listen. “No wonder he got the first place in that science competition, even though he didn’t deserve it.”Clementine snorted.And that made me pinch the bridge of my nose. That was usually how it started with the twins. One would talk about how her day or life had been recently, and the other would obviously mess it up or joke about it. The unmistakable reddening of Hazel’s face was a clear indication that she was just about ready to jump up from the table to strangle her twin.“No,” I didn’t hesitate to point at the both of them, ma

My sisters and I cried that night.It was after dinner. We were all getting ready to sleep. I was fixing the plates, but Markus placed his hands on his hips, shaking his head at me. Chuckling, I let him do the dishes because he tells me I already did the cooking. Red quickly ran towards our room carrying Ash, Gray, Blue, and Jade, hiding from us and hiding from the chores. He really ate and dash.Olive and Scarlett, plus the twins, offered to help, but Markus said that his mother would slap him if she found out that he let a guest clean up. He told me he would be talking to them about the current arrangement after everything had been settled. I knew he was doing that because of his parents, who are exactly like him, would find out just how much money we spent the past few days, with the car gas, rentals, and other checkups, they would freak out.

The Disreputable Love Transaction [EXTRA] The Wedding
My mother named me after a color I didn’t even like.I would have preferred it if she had named me Green. Green is a nice name. It’s a nice color. I love the color green. And so does my brother, Gray. He only ever showers when the shampoo is green. Green is also what I color the trees. Trees are good. Without trees, there would be no books. I couldn’t imagine what life would be without books.Or maybe I can, I just don’t want to imagine life without it.I like books. Right now, I’m reading a book on different psychological assessments. A few months ago, we moved to a place that’s far away from my mother. Sometimes I don’t like change. Change is weird, it makes me scared. This time, I liked the change. This time, I can read all the books I want and my mother won&r
The Disreputable Love Transaction [EXTRA] The Proposal
A miniature demon was inches away from my face.“Markus,” Gray whispered softly. “I have to ask you something.”It was like he was trying not to wake me up more than he already did. Groaning, I rub the back of my head. When he had woken me up by blowing warm air in my ear, I woke up flinching. My head hit my headboard, and I was afraid I might have broken it, and I wasn’t really in the mood to spend any more than I already did the past few days.“What is it?” I asked, lifting him up and placing him on my lap. The past few months have been amazing, he’d taken in a lot more weight and even though he hated it, he also started taking more showers. All we needed was changing the shampoo to the green ones that he liked. “What’s wrong, bud?”
The Disreputable Love Transaction [EPILOGUE] The Disreputable Love Transaction
It was around midnight when my sister started to fucking scream.When we had been living on the same roof, I was used to her bitching every hour of the day. She finds gum in her shoe, she bitches. She loses one of her earrings, she bitches. She figures out I ate the last fucking piece of donut. She fucking bitches. Everything she does is bitch. It came to the point where I don’t even want to come home anymore because I was missing sleep because of all the time she keeps bitching about everyone at the house.Still, for some inexplicable reason, I feel like her bitching now didn’t sound like her typical bitching.Rubbing my eyes, I yawn, pulling myself up from the couch. The television was still on when I had been watching a movie a few hours ago. Violet would probably have bitched about this too but
The Disreputable Love Transaction [97] To Happy Endings And New Beginnings
“Give that back to the kind gentleman, Gray.”Gray scrunched his nose up in annoyance, “No!”“Gray,” I say again, forcing a smile so that none of the other people could tell I was close to slapping the back of his head for being a brat. “Return the paper bag to the man.”“Helen said only one per person!”“We bought lots, didn’t we?” I counter, “Just give it back.”Gray mutters something under his breath once more but, he returned the paper bag to the homeless man who for sure was hiding five more bags inside of his coat. He walked by more than a few times already, I just didn’t make a comment. Hey, if we were in t
The Disreputable Love Transaction [96] No More Running
“What’s that about?” Red asked as we got out of the cab, pulling an exhausted and dozing Markus out. Thankfully, Red was with me because there was no way in hell I can carry Markus all on my own. I already had another set of weight that’s pulling me down in my belly, I can’t have the person who made the weight possible adding to the changes of my center of gravity. “What did that woman mean by contract, Violet? What was she talking about?”I say nothing. Instead, I slung my arm around Markus’s lower back, while his inner elbow settled around the back of Red’s neck. It was a good thing that his apartment was in the basement and we didn’t have to use the stairs. Thank you to whoever invented elevators!Red huffed, his voice sounding annoyed with my sudden s
The Disreputable Love Transaction [95] The Past Keeps Coming Back
“You brought a titty club?”“Red!” I hissed, covering his mouth immediately before either of the kids hear. “It’s not a titty club! I’ve never seen an uncovered breast at Ardere. Can you keep your mouth shut?”Red and Clementine got home a few hours after we prepared dinner.And Markus was yet again, working late today.He had been working late for quite a few days now that I’m starting to both get worried and annoyed. Granted, I wasn’t alone at home and he could leave me without me getting bored, it still wasn’t what I expected. Especially now that we knew what the other had felt. I thought for sure that our feelings were mutual, everything would feel different.
The Disreputable Love Transaction [94] Everything We Wished For
My therapist suggested that I should make a list.They told me that hate was a powerful word, and that it was subjective. That maybe the hate that was festering inside of me wasn’t necessarily considered as hate but more of confusion and guilt forming together. They told me that sometimes things happen beyond our control and that I shouldn’t blame myself for the choices I made along the way over things that I had no control over.Of course, I thought it was total bullshit.Still, I found myself typing names on the notes app of my phone. I was inside my room, with the door open to ease everyone’s concern. I’ve already gone and fed Mexi. It had been a long time since we spent time alone together. Markus, Scarlett, and Olive were at their jobs, Hazel was at her dorm, Red and Clementine wer
The Disreputable Love Transaction [93] Who Knew Therapy Wasn't All Just Fun And Games?
I don’t know what’s more infuriating.Maria and Maverick, who were trying to keep cool but failing horribly, while they were taking food out of paper bags. They kept glancing my way ever since I got back into Ash’s room. Or maybe it was my siblings that were more annoying. I could feel their stares on me even when they weren’t facing my direction. It was that bad.Red, Jade, and Gray were standing by Ash’s, who thankfully was knocked out cold and not blabbering crazy stuff anymore, bed. Gray was blatantly staring, whispering something to Red, while tipping his head in my direction. Red was glancing at me from the corner of his eye, and I met his gaze. When he noticed that I caught him, he placed his hand on top of Gray’s head and swiveled his face to avert his gaze.Th
The Disreputable Love Transaction [92] The Cheapskate And The Shopaholic
Keep calm, Violet.I’ve been repeating that ever since Markus had grabbed my hand and started pulling me along behind him, walking to heaven knows where. He’s been quiet ever since we left Ash’s room. I didn’t miss the way that Maria and Maverick were throwing glances at the both of us as we left. Hell, even Red was giving me a knowing look and it’s Red we’re talking about. He couldn’t even care less about my girly problems.I was in such a state, it took me a long time to figure out just where exactly we were going. We’ve passed the hospital park where we had the talk a few days ago. And it doesn’t really look like we’re going to where his car was parked. My hands were getting clammy and he still hasn&rsquo
