Jason..Today's the day. The first official date.I've got it all planned out thanks to Jade and the right use of the internet.Ofcourse it took me a few days to plan it, a few hours to prepare a speech to ask Eve out and a great amount of courage but I asked and she said yes.I've been feeling all giddy since morning. I said I'll pick her up at noon and in ten more minutes, it will be noon so I needed to leave now.I closed the files on my table that needed signing.I could just do them tomorrow or so. I changed into casual clothes and checked myself in the large mirror in my office, and damn!, did I look good. I walked out of my office only to meet jade and Patricia chatting."My keys." I said drawing attention to myself."Woah..., You look hot." Jade said and I smirked."I know." I said cockily which made him roll his eyes."Here." He said giving me my keys."Stop drooling Patricia." I smiled as I walked towards the elevator.I could feel both their eyes on me until I got into th
Jason..Since we left the show earlier than expected, I stopped at the park so we could take a stroll around because the highlight of my date could only happen after sunset. We walked hand in hand talking about all sorts of things. "So when did you find out you were allergic to fish?" I asked since that question has always been on my mind."Oh, I think it was when I was eight,as you know we weren't well off so we could barely afford a lot of stuffs, so my mom managed to buy sardines so our lunch box to school would look a bit decent. The moment I took my first bite at school, I was rushed to the infirmary and the doctor said if I had swallowed it, I might have died. I didn't tell my parents of course because I didn't want them to worry, I just didn't eat those meal again. So I became a bit thin and she thought I was being picky." She said and whispered the last part but I heard her alright."Well, I like picky." I smiled and she smiled too."So what about you?, Do you have anything
Jason..We got down and entered into the five star restaurant where I had booked for the night."Good evening." I said to the lady at the reception who wore a professional smile thankfully."Evening, I have a reservation under the name Jason." I said."Yes sir, he'll show you the way." She said after checking the computer and gestured to one of the waiters to take us to our reserved room.We were taken upstairs to the very last floor, the rooftop.It was decorated with dim lights and there were candles on the table. The roof however wasn't an opened roof but it simply had transparent glass over us. Which allowed us to star gaze and have a candle light dinner at the same time.So clever!"This is beautiful, jason.." Eve squealed in excitement and I was happy."Anything for you." I wanted to say but I know that was cheesy."We'll bring your meal to you sir." The waiter said and disappeared to wherever.That was the least of my concern anyways. I just hope they don't miss the cue if not
Eve. "Jason, you don't have to do this if you don't want to, you know." I said as I helped him load our stuffs into the van."I want to." He said lifting up the cooler into the van."Thank you for letting me come along." Jade said as he placed his bag in the trunk."It's fine. Who's your plus one by the way?" Jason asked him."You'll see." Jade smirked and entered into the van. "You'll see." Jason mimicked and went to the driver's seat. I rolled my eyes and got into the front seat.We were on our way to a campsite.A few days ago, Max said he wanted to go camping with me, I told Jason about it and he said he would come along and so Max decided to make it a double date and asked Ethan to come along too.Jason went around bragging to jade about it and jade asked to come along too. Jason told him to bring a plus one and he said he would but we have no idea who his plus is.We arrived at the campsite and I marvelled at the sight. It is very wide and so pretty.I love nature. We parked
Eve.."Oh Ethan!" I said the moment I saw him squatting by the toilet stall.I pulled him into my embrace and he sobbed softly."Let it out.." I whispered as I rubbed his back in circles. After few minutes, he stopped crying and pulled away."Are you alright?" I asked and he nodded.He got up from his position and stood properly."Should we take a walk?" He asked with a sad smile.I nodded and got up too.The campsite was quite big so it was easy to walk around.There were a lot campers too, some people came alone, a few of them were couples and a few others were family of four or more. Most people came with their kids and the kids ran around the camp fires giggling and laughing at whatever. I found them quite adorable. I noticed Ethan staring intently at a particular blonde boy who looked like he was about four years old. The young boy was the only one who wasn't running around the camp fire, he simply sat down a bit far away from the others and stared at the fire. Maybe he found i
Jason..A few minutes after Eve left to look for Ethan."Here." I said extending my ear piece to max."What?" He snapped and i rolled my eyes."So cranky." I hissed."I'm not cranky." He said in a loud voice."Yeah yeah.." I sneered provoking him further."I don't know what Eve sees in you." He mumbled and i scoffed."I'm a dashing young man." I said confidently."I'm a dashing young man." Max mimicked in a high pitched voice and i laughed."I don't sound like that." I groaned."Yeah, you don't." He laughed and i smacked him playfully."Ouch!" He said laughing hard."Why are you laughing?" I asked laughing now because his laughter is contagious."It's funny." He said still laughing."What is?" I asked smiling now."You said you don't sound like that when that's exactly how you sound." He said amidst his laughter."Is that how I sound?" I asked with a straight face."No." He said truthfully."That's great then." I sighed in relief."You still don't want it?" I asked extending the ear p
Eve...I groaned in frustration for nth time.We were currently at a bowling alley where Jason and Max have been going at it for the last two hours.I don't know why Max agreed to this anyways. He sucked at bowling so much.Looking at them, it was more like two of them were couples with the way they were bickering over everything.They were acting like old married couples.Jason was currently beating Max, four to zero but he still insisted that he was going to win."Can you both just stop it?" I yelled loudly bringing attention to myself from the entire court. "Sorry." I said apologetically once I noticed people were staring at me in annoyance."Stop it please!" I whisper-yelled."One last time Eve, I'm gonna beat Jason at this,just this once." Max begged me. I groaned and walked away in defeat. There was nothing I could do now.I looked at Jason who stood there with a smug smile waiting for Max to lose again. He seemed to be enjoying himself.If only he knew that Max was a badass at
Eve.I closed my eyes as I screamed loudly in fear."Eve!" I heard the voice again but it was familiar.It wasn't the helmet man and his side kick. It was Jade and Patricia. Ugh! "You scared me!" I yelled in a broken voice."We didn't mean to." Jade said apologetically."I..." "I.."I stuttered as I was unable to form words. I felt a lump in my throat and my hands were still shaking in fear."Eve.." Patricia called softly and that was when I broke into sobs."We're so sorry." She said apologetically but I sobbed even more."I was so scared, I thought I was going to die!" I said loudly as I sobbed harder."We're so sorry, we'll never try to scare you again." Jade said quietly.They both tried to help me stand but my legs were weak and wobbly."Can you walk?" Jade asked and i shook my head."Okay, we'll help you." He said and put his arms around my shoulders.Patricia did the same.I was in the middle with my arms around their shoulders and one of theirs around mine too I looked aro
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
