Eve.."So you're saying he did all that?" Max gasped."Yes, why would I lie about that?" I giggled."Girl, I think he's falling for you." Max laughed giving me a friendly tap on my arms."You're right, Jada's plan might be working." I smiled."Keep this up and this would no longer be a marriage of convenience." Max smiled too.We talked about other stuffs including the barista that max was dating now. Turns out, max was simply trying to make Jason jealous that was why he mentioned that his new boyfriend Ethan was coming because according to max 'a man can tell when another man is jealous.'I felt good about the situation anyways because it was good to recognized and all. I've never seen a guy get jealous because of me because I didn't really have much time so I mostly saw any guy I was seeing late in the night most of which none of them appreciated. Not that they were serious about me anyways, they were mostly struggling like I was but the attraction was there.I am not sure if this i
Jason..The sun shoned through the window blinding my eyes.Ugh.. I groaned. Just who left the windows opened and how many times have I warned those maids to not open my windows. I rolled to the other side of my bed only to feel something by my side. I put my hands there only to feel someone's body right beside me. I shot my eyes opened only to meet Alice with a disheveled hair on my bed.I tapped her harshly jolting her from her beauty sleep."What?" She snapped."I should be asking you that." I snapped back at her."What are you doing here?" I said in a half yell."What do you mean by that?" "We came home together last night." She said rubbing her eyes probably because she still felt sleepy."There's no we and this is not your home." I snapped."Jason, what's wrong with you?, It's too early!" She said in a loud voice."Exactly, it's too early. As long as I remember I've never asked you to come to my house. Ever!" I said angrily."Okay fine, you were drunk and so I brought you ho
Eve...I got off the floor where I sat and began to rampage through my wardrobe. I saw a box that I filled with clothes that Jason got for me before. It was too expensive so I hid them. Right now, I was in the mood to dress up nicely so I pulled the box out and picked out a cream saint Laurent dress. I opened another box and pulled out a black Dior heel and a small black purse with pearls around it.I put them on and then styled my hair in a bun and left a few strand fall while I used a cream broche to hold it so it won't free fall. I put on light make up and looked at myself in the mirror. I looked really expensive.Satisfied with my looks, I left the house and walked down to the busstop outside the estate before I flagged down a cab going to the location that my mom had sent to me on my phone earlier.We soon arrived and I alighted from the cab. I looked around taking in the exterior of the building. It was much more better than the dilapidated building that we used to live in befor
Eve..The orange color in the sky signified that the sun was already setting.Nothing is more beautiful than watching the sunset in the park. The beautiful glow that can only happen once a day and not be recreated again. The time between the bright afternoon and the darkness that is yet to come - Blue hour.I came down from the cab I had boarded and entered into the park but I could already see his newly dyed golden hair shining in the sunset from afar.Found you!I texted Ethan that he shouldn't worry anymore because I've found max before approaching him."Isn't it beautiful?" I asked with a smile and he turned to look at me before his face lit up with a smile as well."You always know where to find me." He said still smiling."Ofcourse, what are friends for?" I asked."How did you know I wasn't in a good mood?" He asked as I sat beside him."I didn't." I said and he raised his brows and I chuckled lightly."I suspected that you were in a foul mood when I tried your number earlier bu
Eve..I groaned as I opened my eyes. I was still sitting in the same position as yesterday night. These days I tend to fall asleep at wrong places. I could do better. I sound pathetic. I sighed deeply and got off the floor. My whole body was aching and looking at the brown envelope on the floor, I was reminded about my ordeal yesterday. I know it's wrong to be conclusive but my mind could only go to Alice. She's the only one I know who likes Jason but I don't think she hates me enough to bear ill intention towards me so maybe I'm just being paranoid. I checked the time on my phone and I realised it was pretty late in the morning which meant I might be late to the horse riding I promised max. I limped into the bathroom and took off my clothes. I had a warm bath and brushed my teeth. I texted Ethan about the place we would be visiting since the whole reason for the hangout was for the two of them to forgive each other or whatsoever. I dressed up in baggy jeans and a big bright pink t
Jason.."Should I get you a cup of coffee?" Patricia my secretary asked as she saw the state I was in. "No!" I said and she scurried away before I relished my wrath upon her. I don't know why I am so bothered about Eve.No!, Let me rephrase that. I'm not bothered about Eve, I'm bothered about going about and smearing my name in the mud. I checked my phone and glanced at the message she had sent me earlier about the location of where she was hanging out with her so called gay friend.I checked the location on the GPS and it appeared to be a stable. Does she know how ride a horse?Would she be riding a horse with that said Max?My mind drifted off to an illusion of what they could be doing at the horse stables."This is my horse sapphire.." Max would say and Eve would giggle."He's quite rough but I got the hang of it. Should I ride it so I can show you?" Max would say and wink."Ride it, be as rough as you can be." Eve would say seductively.I waved off the foolish thought that was i
Alice..I tapped my feet repeatedly as I waited by the door for my stupid brother. I brought my phone to my face and began to dial his number again. "For God sake pick up." I rasped.And as if my prayers were heard, the idiot picked up before the third ring."Calm down Cinderella, I'm almost at your door." He said and hung up and the next thing I heard was a knock on the door. I quickly opened the door and pulled him inside my house."Calm down." He chuckled and I rolled my eyes."What do you mean by you met Jason today?" I asked immediately."I met Jason today, that's all." He said laughing and i looked at him as if he was missing a screw or something."Where?" I asked frowning."At the stables." He said sitting down on my couch."Stables?" I asked and he nodded."What was he doing there?" I asked and he smirked."He was with his wife, being overly protective of her." He smirked making me boil in anger."That's a lie." I said gritting my teeth."Hehehehehehe.." he laughed stupidly a
Max..After departing from Eve and Jason, Ethan and I drove to his home.The ride was quiet although the air was tensed. Not in a bad way any ways more like in a sensual way.We kept glancing at each other minutes after minutes and I couldn't help but imagine all the kinds of things he could possibly do to manhandle me. Not that I like being treated bad but I love a dominant man.We soon arrived at his home and he parked his car and came down to open the door for me."What a gentleman.." I commented as I got down from the car.We took the elevator to his apartment, he inserted his pin and we entered into the house. He switched on the lights and i looked around in awe."We were drunk that day so I couldn't say anything about your house but it's lovely." I said complimenting him. He simply smiled."Can I look around?" I asked and he nodded. Why is he suddenly quiet? I couldn't help but wonder. I realized that I haven't really seen all the parts of his house since I was drunk the first t
Grand finale.Eve.Two years later.A double life sentence with no parole for the murder of nineteen year old fudger, attempted murder on Jason and I. Plus twenty years blackmail for on Sophie and Mark and perjury. That was Alice's sentence.The news broke out few months after Jason and I got married and I couldn't help but feel bad for her. But she brought it upon herself.I even heard that she has become insane and was transfered to a special mental facility where she was under surveillance twenty four seven and now she's like a soulless body only living for the drugs injected in her body.I guess that's why they say - Do things that make you happy within the confines of the law.Mark on the other hand, died. Apparently, he was a drug addict and the drugs were already affecting his immune system and since he couldn't no longer take them in prison, his health deteriorated and he ended up kicking the bucket. I sighed heavily as I was lost in thought until I heard my name being call
Eve.Oh my fucking God!!There were white decorations everywhere and not to mention, it was filled people important people wearing purely white garb.Jason and I were the only one who stood out because we were wearing casual clothes.At the front, there was a priest and everyone I knew was there. Jason's Mom.Grandma Nini.Jade and Patricia.Max and Ethan?, They didn't even tell me they were back. Max and Ethan were spending some time with ethan's parent. Apparently, they were more accepting than Max's family. Even the twins, Declan and Damian weren't left out from the surprise wedding ceremony. Well, apart from my parents. I bet Jason knew inviting them would ruin this day.I wonder how they haven't changed from their bad ways all these while."Oh my goodness." I said turning to face Jason."What do you think?""Do you like it?" Jason asked and i almost squealed."Like it?, I love it!" I said in a half yell. Atleast not loud enough to draw attention to us. I remained gobsmacked a
Eve.Three months later.Mom and grandma Nini insisted on taking care of Declan and Damian while Jason and I go out for a date.According to her, we've not gone on a date for a while so now that the babies don't want their mother all the time, we can go out for a bit.Jason insisted that I put on a blindfold because it's a surprise and I had no choice but to do as he said.Not that I couldn't refuse but who would refuse a surprise anyways?"Where are we going?" I asked as I got into the car."Somewhere special." Jason said getting into the car as well and he began to drive to God knows where.It took a while but the car finally stopped and Jason helped me out of the car."Let me prepare you for what you're about to see." Jason said and i snorted. I could tell that we weren't in some hotel or big restaurant because of the air I could feel against my skin.And then Jason held my hands dragging me to where we were going to, with the blindfold still on my face."Are we there yet?" I mutte
Jason.After they sew eve's uterus and cleaned her up, she was transfered to a normal ward.And I went to see our babies in the incubator. The doctor said they'll have to be monitored for two weeks but for now, nothing was wrong and that it was only because they were born two weeks earlier than the scheduled time.I smiled as I watched my kids from the glass mirror with an overwhelming happiness in my heart. I didn't get to carry them yet, I wanted to wait for Eve to wake up before carrying them.It was definitely not because I thought I might drop them or hold them tighter than I should."You're now a father." I heard my mom say behind me and I smiled.I never thought having children would give me so much pride and joy but looking at them through the glasses made me realize that I was now a father, a father of two strong boys. And I promise to take care of them with all that I have. "Why didn't you tell Eve that they're twins?" She asked and i chuckled.I still remember when I fou
Eve.We were currently at the hospital and the contractions had not stopped. I was seated on a hospital bed and I focused on the television that was showing the news. I rubbed my stomach in a circular motion hoping that the pain would lessen but that proved futile.I was in a really foul mood. I don't know why.Maybe because everybody kept asking me how I was feeling or maybe because I wasn't feeling better. I don't know but I was angry. I wasn't angry at anybody and I wasn't angry at myself but I was angry."Darling,it would be dangerous if you delay the birth more." Mom said trying to convince me to transfer to the delivery room.For the past thirty minutes that we've been here, they've been trying to convince me to head to the delivery room but I refused because I was definitely not going to give birth without the presence of the father of my child. Plus, my water wasn't broken yet though the doctor did say that it was only a matter of time. "Mom, I'm not giving birth without Jaso
Eve.I groaned for the nth time today. Grandma Nini, Mom and Isaiah were trying to make me happy but I wore a frown on my face.Jason had to go for an impromptu work problem and I couldn't go with him because of my pregnancy.I mean, the reason I want to go is because I don't want to be away from him even if it's just a second and yet he flew across the sea for some work problem leaving his pregnant wife at home?What do you think about that?Isn't that annoying and irresponsible?And I don't even have anybody to rant to because Mom says I should be understanding while Grandma Nini is indifferent.Isaiah on the other hand won't stop talking about the celebrity he met at Max's wedding. I've always thought I didn't have enough time to talk to Isaiah because of our crazy parents but now I just want him to shut up.I've been calling Max for the past hour and he's not picking up. As far as I'm concerned, I don't think it's night in Paris so I really have no idea why he's not picking up.S
Max.Ethan and i were spending the second week of our honeymoon at Hawaii. I guess spending time in the Louvre didn't excite me as much as it excited Eve. It's not that I didn't enjoy my stay in Paris but maybe it was a bit too much? Or overated? I think what I actually wanted was to just spend the final week on relaxation and maybe take a road trip around the city tasting different Hawaiian food in the process. I bet that would be amazing. The hotel and resort that we were currently at was very beautiful and magnificent and I couldn't help but squeak in excitement once we were shown into our rooms. "This place is wonderful." I said excitedly to max who smiled in return. I bet he's just as excited as I am. Once we got to our room, I saw that there were rose petals on the bed and in the bathtub. I've seen stuffs like this in the movies and I must admit, it does look very romantic. I'm guessing it's there because of the reservation we made. After all, it's a honeymoon reservatio
Eve.I woke up with Jason hugging my back, his warm callous palms were inside my clothes and rested on my bulging belly.Yesterday had been so hectic because of the trial and all. "Jason, you're awake, aren't you?" I gasped once I felt his palms cup my swelling breast."Why did you wake up so early?" He questioned as he kissed my nape and i smiled because I had woken up to ease myself.He slowly massaged my sensitive breast while grinding his body against mine. "I want to pee." I whined preventing his hands from moving aggressively."Hmmm, okay, I'll come with you." Jason said as he let me go and helped me get up from the bed and we both went to the bathroom. I wasn't even surprised or embarrassed that he followed me to the bathroom because he has been doing this since that incident. That miraculous incident that healed his legs. At first I used to be embarrassed especially when he guards the door when I'm taking my bath but I soon got used to it and I understand that it's just hi
Eve.As I walked towards the front roll, just close enough so every single person in the room could hear what I had to say."You're just delusional, was it so hard to accept that he didn't love you?""All those years that you've been friends, not once did he ever look at you and not once did he ever put a label on your relationship but you went ahead with your delusional mind to conclude that he would one day love you?""I can't believe we're all gathered in court to deal with someone who couldn't keep her delusions in check." I said and the crowd hummed in response."Shut up!" "I can't believe Jason really fell your kind, you're not even pretty.""After all, your kind is known for being thieves." Alice said as a comeback but I wasn't even affected instead I was disgusted."It was only a matter of time before you brought race into this conversation, you talk about being civilized? You talk about being black?" I scoffed."Please..""Instead of talking about my skin color, maybe you s
