"You could've brought your car here rather than carrying her to your car..."

Mark's advice fell on deaf ears as Jeremy walked out of the pub carrying Jacques. Her purse was hanging from his shoulder.

"Him carrying a woman's purse is something I thought I'd never see..."

Mark went to his office and closed the door. He opened the drawer of his table with the key he kept safely in the locker. Inside was an old sepia-toned picture of a girl. Pouring a glass of vodka, he rested on the backrest placing the picture on his chest.

"I miss you..."

-----

Jeremy placed her on the passenger seat of his car and she was still sleeping. He placed her purse safely and buckled the seatbelt.

"Why did you drink this much if you can't handle it?" he spoke gently and fixed her hair falling on her face.

He paused to have a good look at her face. His fingertips were tingly after touching her smooth skin. Her cheeks were pink and her lips had a red tint. Her long curled lashes quivered slightly and slowly

    "Jer- stop..."He tried to speak but she didn't stop and he lost the will to struggle. He slumped on the bed with a thud. His blood started rushing towards his lower abdomen and his hands were itching to hold her."Shush, Jerry... I am applying medicine for your ouchies..." she straddled on his thighs and bent over him and continued licking his lips.He let her be and revealed in the sweet sensations of her lips on his face. From one bruise to the next she moved and "applied medicine" in her way. As she moved, her crotch ground over his groin and he knew it won't be long before his insatiable monster will "awaken" and he wondered how she would react then."Why did you get hit?" she asked and her eyes started to water. "Poor boy... it must have hurt..." she placed her head on his chest and wrapped her hands around his neck.Jeremy patted her back. His heart bubbled with joy seeing her worried for him. "It hurt a lot. It still hurts. Apply more medicine..." he said in a pitiful tone a

    But then it immediately went away as he never told Emma that he likes Jacques. Had she known that her brother likes her friend, she'd be supportive and not let her petty vengeance get the best of her. But...Jeremy recalled Mark's words. If the boy who was with Emma that day was Gerard, why did the both of them pretend to not know each other in front of him? Jeremy had an impression that the boy had powerful connections and that's why Jeremiah Harrison made sure he didn't find out his name. And every footage that could have proved his guilt was scrubbed off from records somehow.That year, he was barely nineteen and in no way had the standing he has now. Everything he has now, he gained them after he met his Luna. But he was planning to make that boy face justice. That well-protected boy was a minor and since it was his first offense, he won't face harsh punishments. But Jeremiah protected that boy and even withheld that boy's name from him and called him names and asked what right

    Jacques lowered her eyes and looked away. Jeremy held her closer fearing she might run away. He thought she sobered up and his heart raced thinking about what he just did. I confessed!"We..." her breath tickled his neck as she was nestling there. "Us... it's not... ""Are we not possible?" he asked. He didn't want to look at her face in case she was sober."It's..." she struggled to say the words. "that day... I don't think I can forget..."Jeremy rested his chin on the crown of her head and hugged her close. He knew what day she was talking about. "I didn't...I didn't mean to... I didn't know you were with a child... but that's not an excuse..." his voice trembled and he squeezed her close to him. "I am sorry, Jacques... I am sorry..."He started trembling still holding her and his tears dripped on her hair. "And I thought you were just shocked and wanted to go to the hospital... I couldn't see any wound on you and the airbags didn't actually hurt you...I am sorry, I assumed...

    "I will never forgive Emma ..." Jacques spoke in a low voice and her voice made Jeremy a bit calm. During her teen years, Emma made her live in fear, and even now she still isn't letting her off. Even Gerard lied to her together with Emma. They knew each other for a long time and Gerard hid it from her.It was then Jacques realized that even before she met TJ in the pub, Emma won't stop talking about her brother who is a local thug. "Why?" he asked."You're not?" she asked back. "She ruined your image for me and made me scared of you. That's some love your sister has for you. And because of her lies, I hid my pregnancy from you that led to... and her words that day almost..." she cut off and turned her back on him since she felt like crying. Jeremy knew she was talking about her miscarriage and her attempt to end her life and he stayed silent. And it seems like she holds Emma responsible for that. He didn't like that but he had nothing to say to counter her belief. Because the reas

    In the middle of the night, Jacques felt very thirsty and woke up. She was stunned to see Jeremy lying beside her and she was cuddling him. With a gasp, she sat up and patted herself. She was relieved to know she wasn't hurting anywhere and she was fully clothed.She gently poked his cheek and he was in a deep sleep. He didn't even realize it when she got up. Jacques got down from the bed and quenched her thirst. Her head hurt very much and she took some pills from the first aid box. She checked the time and it was three in the morning and she still was sleepy.She wondered what she should do with the big guy occupying her bed. He fixed a door chain for her door and somehow ended up sleeping on her bed.But Jacques remembered a lot of what happened the previous night and she couldn't blame him. She was the one who started everything. And I licked him like a dog! Ugh!This is the reason why she never gets drunk. She unleashes the sides to her that she doesn't know she has when she is

    Jacques hesitated to get down since she was embarrassed to face Jeremy and also she was feeling nauseated. But then, she had promised to cook breakfast every morning and he might be expecting her to prepare breakfast. She decided to cook, but when she got down, she was welcomed with a divine fragrance. "You started cooking already?" she asked and Jeremy turned at her with a stern look.He was not angry at her a lot because he had one of the best nights last night. But he was a little angry that she drank without considering her health.Working in his shed to clear his mind, he decided not to speak of last night to her. He confessed and she made sure she is not ready to think about love now. She still is not over the trauma of losing her child and he doesn't have any hope that she'll fall for him. And it seemed like she accepted his apology although he wasn't sure if she had forgiven him or not. And she won't remember anyway!"Missy, we need to talk about how stupid you were to get

    "Gerard... It might be hard to fathom, but the timing she says this... Are you sure she is not lying? And is that even your child..." Seeing his glare, she gulped. "So it is your child? How did this- Did you keep on meeting her after-""We lost our baby, mom," Gerard began to shake leaning on her shoulder and she sighed in relief.Thank God it got solved by itself!She was relieved but her son's pain hurt her."The day of my wedding she had a miscarriage. And that b*Emma hid it from me although she knew. While she was suffering I had to put up with that Emma b!tch! Mom, I can't continue this farce anymore... I want my Jer. I am going to divorce-""No, no!" Before he finished, his mother closed his mouth. "Don't say that word. And what do you mean 'our baby'? I don't think there ever was a baby. She is playing to get you back... Women like her..."She decided to play the "She lied about her miscarriage" card but was interjected by Gerard's painful chuckle."Hahaha... Very well, mom!"

    Jeremy deliberated if he should go and bring her back to have his talk. He wanted to know what they were talking about. As he was about to turn to sneak to the garden, sudden darkness rose in front of him and he almost punched the dark head that popped up."Whatcha doin', Jerry?" Even after knowing it's Scarlett, he wanted to punch that grinning face."She is interested in someone very much," She smiled and he pulled down the window. But Scarlett was quick to stop him by holding the window. "Get lost, Scar. Don't you have a baby to look after?" he turned to leave. He did want to know who she is interested in but he didn't want to beg Scarlett for answers.Geez! I didn't believe the phrase "men marry their mothers" until Bobby married Scarlett. Daisy and Scarlett are the same gossip-lovers."She's has a lot of questions to ask about...It's fine if you don't want to know. By the way, she still isn't talking about her wedding. What is that about? Does she even know? I thought she'd as

    Jeremy tried to regain his balance after he was pushed and he saw the little figure falling on the floor. He balanced himself and saw the little figure kneeling as the tiger was in an attack stance.Oh, No!Jacques was not willing to die."No, Khan!" She shouted and crossed her forearms to cover her face. She shut her eyestightly as if that would have her.Her voice was loud and clear and that was followed by Wyatt's authoritative command."Khan, stay."Just a second after Jacques felt something warm and soft hugging her and she opened her eyes to see little Benny hugging her.She felt a strong pull from behind her and a lot of shouts. Thankfully she didn't hear any weapon going off.She saw the distance between the tiger and her increasing and the big cat getting pulled back by Wyatt.She didn't know how it happened but the tiger looked calmer now."You okay, Jacques?" That familiar voice was shaking in terror and the next she felt was everything around her blackening as she was surr

    Jacques's heart pounded looking at the sharp eyes of Wyatt. The tiger was staring right at her and licked its lips.Jacques felt a shiver passing through her spine.Fear of death...She used to foolishly think for some time that death would end it all and death is a sweet release from worldly troubles.But now, facing the big threat in front of her, she realized that she wanted to live more than she thought she did.She gulped seeing Wyatt taking a puff with an odd smirk looking at her. She was terrified.But she stared right back at Wyatt. She remembered Jeremy's words that even Shaun's boss cannot hurt her.I am Joel's woman. I cannot show myself to be weak when he is near me!She felt a big hand enveloping hers. That familiar big hand was rough and warm.Yeah, I am in the safest place on earth.I am by Joel's side!"Come to the point, Wyatt. Don't waste my time," Jeremy said, placing her hand on his lap.It was like he is assuring her that he is by her side and no one can touch her

    Jacques couldn't take her eyes off the little boy with pretty green eyes. Those eyes reminded her of Gerard and the baby she lost.She fixed the long unkempt hair of the boy by running her fingers through them. The boy had a pleasing smile. He was shy at first but then started to play with her hair.She got some snacks for the boy from the others and he was happily chomping on them while talking non-stop.Should I just bring him with me?Jacques wondered. His father left him out in the cold. He wouldn't mind if someone else raises his son, right?But... She was told that Wyatt came running here as soon as he heard the news that his son is with Jeremy. News from Wyatt's town is that he was searching every nook and corner of his town for his son.Ugh!Jeremy, sitting at a distance from her, watched her without blinking. She was casually wiping the boy's snot, wiping his face, and was holding him the whole time.And the smile on her face...He could see a different kind of smile on her f

    And that's when she saw some movement behind the tiger. She thought she saw a piece of clothing sometime before, but she dismissed it.But now, that piece of clothing has moved.Is that a child?All of a sudden, she could move. She saw Jeremy pointing the weapon at the tiger and there were some tens of the volunteers pointing their weapons."Don't shoot!!!" Jacques waved her hand and walked towards the tiger.She wasn't thinking about anything but that child. They might shoot at the tiger but the child is bound to get hurt.Jeremy was stunned.Is she really walking towards the tiger? Is she trying to protect the tiger? She was scared of the huskies and now she is walking towards a....Is she stupid?He signaled others not to shoot but his weapon was trained on the tiger."Reckless idiot!" he mumbled, seeing the tiger crouching a bit as if it was going to lunge.Second, he felt his heart slipping to the pit of his stomach. He heard a ringing noise in his ear and his eyes darkened.The t

    Jacques was surprised to see the number of pickup trucks lined up in the road. Noticing Jeremy's car, they all gave way to him. She oddly felt proud, although she knew this respect was for Jeremy.He's the King, alright?She didn't think that many would volunteer for this when today is Black Friday and was impressed.Rather than shopping for Christmas, they preferred to help every kid have a Christmas tree in their home?"That's a lot of volunteers," Jacques said."Yeah, every year the number of volunteers is increasing and the number of trees needed is decreasing," Jeremy said, waving his hand to Charlie parking his truck."So more people are buying fake Christmas trees these days?" Jacques said with a chuckle."Ha... That's a very genius observation, Chippy! "Jeremy turned to look at her with a teasing smile."Chippy? Not you too, Brutus," she hit him in the arm.Actually, she understood what that meant. It just means the prospects of the households in this area is getting better an

I was just twenty-nine and I thought it was not the right time for the baby. So I..."

John... he was my pillar of support..." Dr. Kruger wiped her eyes."No one here knows this... Not even Jeremy..."Jacques got up and squatted beside Dr. Kruger and held her hand. She could feel the pain in the doctor's heart."I got better here. My husband, bless his soul, he's the one good thing I did right in my life. He did a lot for me, lost a lot for me, but he never even thought of losing me... And Jeremy... When w

    Sometime later, Scarlett's family joined them in the backyard and they all played games and chatted merrily. Except for Scarlett and Jacques, everyone else got drunk.Jacques helped Scarlett in taking care of the leftovers and cleaning the kitchen. Then Scarlett decided to stay in her parents' home and Scarlett's brother helped bring Bobby there.Both Jeremy and Bobby were too drunk to drive. Jacques decided to drive Jeremy home but Dr. Kruger asked her to stay the night here since it had gotten late already."I can drive..." Jeremy said with a slur."Go to bed," Dr. Kruger patted his back."Yes, mom," Jeremy hugged her. "I love you, mom. So much.""Me too, Jerry. I love you," Dr. Kruger said with a chuckle and patted his back."Jeryl...Jerly...Jacques..." he started giggling as he slurred.He walked towards Jacques holding out his hands, "My wife, my love... here... let me..." he puckered his lips and tried to kiss her.Maybe he was seeing double, he couldn't quite catch her lips and

    Jacques once accidentally got in contact with acid when she was in school. It was just a drop and the acid wasn't very concentrated and even then it gave her a first-degree burn.If this acid is for hurting her, it should be a concentrated acid.How much will it hurt if Jeremy pours it on Stella? Won't her bones melt?A shiver ran down Jacques's spine.Wait...It could've been me!That acid... it might have landed on my face!Viper... Viper is the guy who wants me dead and this woman for her own benefit made a deal with him!Without saying anything, Jacques turned to walk inside.Stella's sobs intensified and she knelt on the floor knowing her fate."Please... Linny... please... help me... I wasn't thinking..."Jacques almost stopped hearing that pitiful cry, but then she walked without stopping.It could have been me.Scarlett hugged baby Cia in her bosom as they walked at a larger pace towards Bobby's house.

    "Stella!"Hearing Jacques walking closer, Jimmy stepped aside.Jacques's stepmother walked in with a bright smile replacing the scowl she had till then, as soon as she heard Jacques."What brings you here?" Jacques put on a bright smile to match her stepmother's."Oh, dear," Stella wrapped her arms around Jacques for a hug and Jacques put up with it.She saw Scarlett behind Stella and she pulled out her phone to record after passing the baby to Bobby. Jacques nodded with a smile.They predicted the next one to come for her under the nudge of Emma would be her stepmother.Jacques hasn't paid a cent for them for more than two months and they have never lived without her money and it would be hard for them to survive.They do not know how to spend thriftily and not to mention all the debts they are under.After talking to Gina, Jacques never cared for them.
