I laughed at the hilarious joke Jasmine made in our group chat. Gustav glanced at me every time I burst out laughing. I am in the living room of the mansion, taking my time leisurely.

It's been two days and yet William isn't home. He called in the morning saying that he couldn't go home yet. He didn't tell me the reason and I didn't ask. He's always like that. I don't know how his world works. He must be busy as the owner of a multi-billion company.

Jasmine and the girls, wanted us to meet again pero ewan ko kung bakit tinatamad akong gumala. Kaunting galaw ay nahihilo ako. Kaya mas minabuti kong magpahinga sa loob ng dalawang araw na wala si Wil.

“Gustav, do we have a gelato?” I asked Gustav who was meters away from me. I was scrolling on social media and I saw a video of gelatos and it looked so delectable.

“I'll ask the kitchen personnel, Mrs. Cavanaugh.”

He dialed a number and asked for it. Then, he told me na wala dawng stock. But I am craving it. I stood up and decided to

    Sinalubong ako ni Mr. Cavanaugh sa sala. I smiled and greeted him. He gave me a fatherly hug and asked about William. I looked at Gustav and let him answer about William's whereabouts. “I hope he's making time for you, Belle. Being the CEO of a multi-billion company is not easy but he has all the means so..” Wil's father shrugged as we sat down opposite to each other in the living room. I asked someone to bring tea. “How are you, po?” Tanong ko sa kanya para maiwala ang usapan kay William. “I'm fine but I'm not getting any younger, Belle. I am hoping to see my grandchildren soon,” he said knowingly. I gulped. Grandchildren, talaga? Di pwedeng grandchild na muna? I laughed without humor at his statement. “Sure po kayong wala pang naging anak si William?” Sagot ko ng maalala ang nangyari kanina. He sure has a lot of women! Kahit ba isa sa naging mga babae niya ay wala man lang siyang nabuntis? If so, he sure is meticulous! He looked at me like I was talking nonsense. “A bastard

    William is so unpredictable. I didn't expect him to be like this in front of others. I tried to tell him that I can do it on my own but he just raised his eyebrow at me and continued what he was doing. I fight the urge to blush and let him do whatever he wants.“I'm full..” Mahina kong sabi sa kanya.“You need to eat more, wife. You eat so little.” He said as he added more food to my plate. Hindi pa rin naman talaga ako busog but it is so awkward. He lifted me and made me sit on his lap. One of the three men faked a cough but William didn't even give a fuck instead he fed me like a baby!“I'm sorry if I'm gone for days. I've been to Italy. There's a minor problem in one of my subsidiaries companies and I want it to be fixed as soon as possible so I went there myself.” He explained. “And these are one of my major investors for my new business ventures.” He said as he motioned to his companions. I wasn't able to say anything and just nodded my head. I didn't expect him to share his whe

    I have eaten my lunch, yet William hasn’t finished his meeting yet. Lydia, my maid, brought my lunch to my room saying that Wil initiated it since he can’t eat lunch with me. Hmm, I hope he is eating there. I took my phone and checked our group chat. Nag-back read pa ako dahil sa haba ng kanilang usapan. These girls have a lot of time in their lives! Parang ako lang din. Hindi nga lang ako madalas na gumagamit ng cellphone.“Hi, Belle!” bati ni Snow ng mapansing online ako. I send a waving hand emoji. “Nag-meet up kami kahapon! Wala kayong dalawa ni Aurora. Next time, pumunta kayo. Huwag puro landi sa mga asawa niyo, please.” mensahe ni Jasmine. I chuckled at her message. “Hindi ah!” tanggi ko. “Oh? Nakailan kayo kagabi?” si Snow naman ngayon. I laughed hard at her message.“Zero! He’s been away for days. Kakauwi niyang lang kaninang umaga.” reply ko. I waited for their reply. Wala pa nga ay natatawa na ako. Akala mo kung sinong mga prim and proper, mga baliw din pala.“Awe. Too

    I woke up with a smile on my face. Hindi ko na naabutan si William pagka gising ko pero maganda pa rin ang aking mood. For today, I decided to wear a short-sleeved white shirt and black pants. It's too casual for an office visit but I feel like wearing it today. My hair is in a high ponytail and I put on light makeup to enhance my beauty. I wore a three-inch black stiletto.As I walked down the stairs, Gustav was already there waiting with my two bodyguards. “Good morning, Mrs. Cavanaugh.” Balita ni Gustav. “Good morning. Si Wil?” Tanong ko sa kanya.“Maaga si boss na umalis. Pero sinabi niyang pwede kang pumunta sa kanyang opisina kahit anong oras mo gusto.” He informed me.“Alright. Let's go then!” Excited Kong Sabi.“Ma'am, hindi pa po kayo nag-agahan.” Sabi ni Lydia na ngayon ay nagmamadaling bumaba sa hagdan.“Sabay na kami ni Wil.” Sabi ko at nagpatiuna ng naglakad palabas ng mansion.Hmm. We can have our food delivered. I am going to ask him later what he wants to eat. Sumak

    Wil is molding my mounds as if they were some clay while giving my neck a feathery kiss. Hindi ko alam kung saan ko ibabaling ang aking mukha dahil sarap sa sensasyon na aking nararamdaman. All I did was moan and utter his name. I don’t know how it happened but I am now laying on the sofa bed, real quick. William is a beast when it comes to this. We are still wearing our clothes and all we do is kiss and touch each other like there’s no tomorrow. Until a knock on the door came. William didn’t mind it. He continued kissing my lips and kneading my breast like we were in our bed; like we got all the time.“Wil..” bigkas ko sa kanyang pangalan. He only groaned as a response. I rolled my eyes and cupped his face. He looked at me annoyed. I pouted.“There’s someone on the door.” sagot ko. He glared at the door before got off from me. Kawawa naman ang pintuan! He held my hand and helped me get up from the sofa. Inayos ko muna ang nagulo kong damit at buhok. Hinitay niya akong matapos sa pag-

    I stare at William who is now glaring at the door where the father and daughter get out. I called him. He looked at me and sighed. Lumapit siya sa sofa at tumabi sa akin. Hindi pa siya na kontento, he lifted me and made me sit on his lap. “I'm sorry for that.” He said.“Hmm. Ayos lang.” Sagot ko. Anong ayos lang? Talaga Belle? Medyo natakot ka kanina di ba? I shook my head and erased those thoughts. Wil is always like that even in the mansion. I should get used to it.He nuzzles on my neck and I can feel his hot breath in there. Then, his secretary calls for another appointment. “This is going to be long. Would you be okay here? Or do you want to tour the company so you won't get bored here?”“Dito na muna ako.” Sagot ko.“Alright. Just tell Gustav if you need anything, wife.”I smiled and nodded at him. He kissed my lips before going out to his next appointment.I took my phone at nagbasa ng messages sa aming group chat.Snow is sending the details for her party this Saturday and

    I don't know what time William went home dahil maaga akong nakatulog. Nagising nalang akong nasa ibang kwarto at yakap-yakap niya. Napakurap ako at hindi makapaniwalang lumingon Kay William na mahigpit na nakayakap sa akin ngayon. Nagulat pa ako ng makitang gising na siya. He stared at me and planted a kiss on my forehead. "Good morning, wife." he greeted me with his bedroom voice. "Good morning, William." I greeted him back as I nuzzled on his chest. This is nice. The warmth from his body felt so nice. I looked around the room and noticed that black dominated the color of his room. His wall is painted with black. His blind folds too are black. His bed sheet is gray and most of things are black. The only thing that isn't black is his carpeted floor. It's gold in color. "How did I end up here?" tanong ko sa kanya. "Hmm. I went to your room and transferred you here." sagot niya. Hindi ko man lang namalayan na binuhat niya ako kagabi. Tulog na tulog siguro ako. I looked at the w

    I tried my best not to give into Wil's touch. For goodness sakes pareho na kaming nakabihis. I turned to him and kissed his cheeks then I held his hand, fingers intertwined. I pulled him outside of my room. I laughed at his reaction. He didn't expected it. “You got me there, wife.” “I'm still sore.” I whispered to him. He looked at me and shook his head while smirking. Damn hot. Sabay kaming bumaba ng hagdan. His hand placed on my bare back. I saw Gustav at the front of mansion's door. He made a call when he saw us descending from the grand staircase. I bet it's the driver he called. He bowed at William and step aside as we walked through. The limousine is already waiting for us. Two of the securities open the car's door as William and I get inside. I give the address to William and he forwards it to Gustav who is now sitting on the side of the driver seat. Two cars are in our front while the other three followed us. William made a call of his secretary saying to finalize

    If you're that busy, then, it's fine with me. I walked out of the room right after William confirmed it.Ilang beses ko siyang gustong kausapin pero hindi ako makahanap ng tamang tiempo at palagi siyang abala. Kahit limang minuto lang ay hindi niya maibigay sa akin. Nauubos na ang aking katiting na pasensya sa kanya. Kasalukuyang nasa isang French restaurant ako ngayon at takam na takam na kumakain ng carbonara. I've been craving it last night. Kaya ngayong umaga ay sinabihan ko si Gustav na kakain ako sa labas. He's on the left side of the room together with my securities who were scattered outside and inside of the room. I burped after drinking my water. Busog na busog ako at ngayon naman ay inaantok na. I can't understand being pregnant. It's making me crave for any type of food and my emotional being is so unstable. Tulad na lang ngayon, papasok si Cassandra at William sa restaurant na kinakainan ko, walang akong ibang maisip kundi silang dalawa na nakalagay sa malaking kawa

    Napatampal ako sa aking noo ng magising na nag-iisa na naman ako sa kwarto. Pagkatapos naming magniig ni William ay nakatulog ako. And now, I'm alone in my bed when I woke up. It's past lunch now.I dialed the kitchen's number and asked for food to be delivered to my room. I looked at myself and thank goodness, William dressed me up.I got off in my bed and looked at my phone. There was no message for him so I sent him one asking where he is. I didn't expect him to reply immediately so I put down my phone after sending him a message. A knock on my door came after a while. It was Lydia, my personal helper. “Good day, Mrs. Cavanaugh. Here's your food.”“Thank you, Lydia,” I said as she handed me the tray with a crab soup and a Caesar salad I requested. She nodded and distanced herself from me and patiently waited on the corner side of the room. I told her she can sit down on the sofa but she firmly declined my offer. Hindi ko na siya pinilit at hinayaan siya sa kung ano ang gusto niya

    “What do you think you are doing?” Malamig na tanong ni William sa akin ng hawakan ko ang kanyang braso upang pigilan siya sa pag-alis. I can see how his vascular arms protruded. “Can you please stay?” mahina kong sabi. Kakarating niya lang at aalis na naman siya. He looked at my tiny hand on his arm looking so disgusted. Napabitaw ako sa pagkakahawak sa kanya at sinalubong ang kanyang malamig na tingin. I don't understand. Alam kong nakakatakot siyang tao sa unang pagkikita pa lang namin pero sa ilang buwan na pagtira ko dito sa mansion ay kailanman ay hindi niya ako pinagbuhatan ng kamay. Hindi niya niya rin ako pinagsasalitaan ng masama pero bakit bigla na lang siyang naging ganito kalamig sa akin ngayon. We were fine. We were doing well. We even made love and he was sweet and thoughtful to me. Pero bakit biglang nagbago ang ihip ang ng hangin?“I love you, Wil. I really am. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ayaw mong maniwala pero yun ang totoo. Please give me a chance to live you.” I sa

    Sinabihan ko si Gustav na huwag ng ipaalam kay William na pupunta kami ngayon sa clinic ni Doc Nathan. Hindi agad siya pumayag dahil trabaho niya raw ang i-report ang lahat ng ginagawa ko o ang lahat na pupuntahan ko. I rolled my eyes at him in annoyance and told him that I don't want William to get worried about me. Kailangan ko lang pumunta sa clinic upang makasigurado na maayos lang ako. Eventually, pumayag rin naman siya na huwag ng ipaalam kay William ang pagpunta namin sa clinic. Sandali lang din naman ako sa loob dahil ako lang ang naka-schedule sa buong umaga, much to my advantage.Doc Nathan gave me pregnancy test kits. I tried it three times and he even took a sample of my blood too to make it more accurate. And the results are all the same. It's positive. I am pregnant!“Congratulations, Mrs. Cavanaugh. It's still in its early weeks, so you need to be more careful. Please refrain yourself from stressful things because it won't be good for you. The first trimester is the mo

    Hindi agad ako nakatulog ng gabing yun. Hindi ako tumuloy na makipagkita kina Snow dahil biglang sumama ang aking pakiramdam. Kung kaya't sa halip na magpahatid ako sa cafe ay dumaan na lang ako sa convenience store upang bumili ng almond nuts. Ewan ko at bigla akong nag-crave nito. Sa sasakyan pa lang ay sinimulan ko na itong kainin. And I can't describe how satisfactory it was. Alas diez ng umaga na ako nagising kinabukasan at tinatamad akong bumangon sa kama. My personal helper brought my breakfast in my room. Sa kwarto na ako kumain. Pagkatapos kong maligo ay nakatulog ulit ako. I can't believe how I can be a sleeping monster these past few weeks. Lumabas ako ng kwarto suot ang puting bestida. My hair is in a messy bun. Wala ako sa mood na ayusin ang ayos ko. The securities are just watching me professionally. Sinalubong ako ni Gustav sa living room at tinanong kung saan ang punta ko. I dismissed him saying I'm only going to the kitchen to get some ice cream I bought the other

    Malalaking hakbang ang ginawa ko papasok sa opisina ni William. Limang araw na siyang hindi umuuwi sa mansion pagkatapos ng gabing iyon. Tinanong ko si Gustav kong nasa labas ba ng bansa si William dahil hindi man lang ito tumatawag sa akin o kahit magpadala man lang ng mensahe pero hindi naman daw at nasa kanyang opisina lang kung kaya’t nagpasya ako ngayon na bisitahin siya. I told Gustav not to tell him because it’s a surprise visit. Nagulat ang kanyang secretary ng dire-diretso ang pasok ko sa loob ng opisina ni William. Gustav and the other securities stayed outside of Wil's office.Kumunot ang aking noo ng walang tao pagpasok ko pero may coat na nakapatong sa swivel chair. Sinarado ko ang pintuan at naglakad papunta sa kanyang mesa. I looked around and saw a luxury bag on the sofa. Napalingon ako sa kaliwang parte ng opisina ng may marinig akong kakaibang boses. Habang papalapit ako dito ay lumalakas ang tunog na naririnig ko. Kinakabahan man ay lumapit ako dito at nalamang may

    Naka-angkla ang aking kamay sa braso ni William habang hinihintay si Snow na bumaling sa amin.“Thank you for coming!” Ngumiti ako kay Snow at niyakap siya. Nasa bukana siya ng pintuan kasama ang kanyang asawa. Tapos na ang party at nag uwian na ang kanyang ibang bisita. The girls are still here, enjoying the company of each other. Inaantok na ako kaya kahit hindi ko pa gustong umuwi dahil gusto ko pa sanang makipag-usap sa kanila ay inaya ko na si William. The other girls and their husbands will stay for a while. Kami lang ni William ang mauunang umuwi. Nagpaalam na ako sa kanila kanina lang at hindi pa sana sila papayag pero ng makita na lang namumungay na ang aking mata dahil sa antok ay pumayag na rin sila.“You're welcome. And thank you for inviting us, Snow.”Nag-usap saglit sina William and Kirill bago kami lumabas ng kanilang mansion at sumakay sa naghihintay na limousine. The security personnel immediately went to their position. I waved for the last time at Snow before we
