ANICA'S POVHow time flies. It felt just like yesterday I am the one who is going to marry someone and now it was my best friend's wedding I am attending to. I went to the bride's room to have a final glance at the soon-to-be part of our family. Mrs Mendez.When I open the door knobb, I saw her- looking at herself in the mirror while her make-up artist is putting foundation on her face. She is absolutely stunning today- however, something is off, she does not look as excited as she was last last day. I immediately walked toward her and sit on the adjacent chair. After her make-up, she signals the make-up artist to leave the two of us. "You look wonderful, Janine. You look hundred times beautiful" I complimented her to lift up her mood. She hold her earing and gently play with it with her fingers while she looked at her own reflection "Am I?" She said and after that we just stared at the mirror for a good full minute.She suddenly chuckled but obviously she's trying to calm herself.
ANICA FAITH'S POV"Anica, someone is calling you." Nanny Susan said. Speaking of her, I asked if my mother told her something when she approached her to get Aphrodite at the church. She said 'none'. Maybe I am just overthinking it again. My mom does sound a little angry when she saw my daughter with Nanny Susan. I brushed those thoughts off and took the phone from Nanny. "Hello, this is Anica Faith Mendez. Who is this?." I speak the moment I put the phone on my ear. I heard a soft chuckle "Your formal voice really hits different." The other line said."Ezicx? Is this you? How did you find this number?" "I asked Zarah and since she knew we were friends she gave it to me, why? If it's bothering you, you can block me instead." He said with a low tone. "Silly. It's fine so why are you calling me?""Nothing. I just missed you." I chuckled upon hearing him with a flirty tone.I went to the sofa and sat on it while I am still on the phone with him. "You just saw me last February." "It'
CASPIAN'S POV As I take a bite of the apple prepared by the people here, I looked at the door- it was opening and then I saw a man with a folder in his hand. Despite being captive, they were giving me updates about what is happening outside. They even allowed me to phone call my family twice a month. They said that it is to avoid any suspicions of my disappearance. These kidnappers act oddly different from how normal kidnappers would treat their hostages. He walked toward me and handed me the envelope. I took the last bite of my apple and put it on the table nearby. I went to the bed that is inside this room. To describe this room, it has a bed- a soft one only enough for a single person, a mini kitchen on the side and also an exercise area. It is simply elegant based on its interior design. When I was put here for the first time, the surrounding was plain white and I can't even know what is the outside look. However, as time passed by pieces of equipment are being delivered and a
ANICA FAITH'S POVI told papu that my co-writer friend will stand up as the father of my unborn child. He just gave me a nod and he completely ignored me after that.We went into a cold war. I wonder what have I done that made him so furious. Before I had my daughter Aphrodite, he used to be super fond of babies. However, his reaction tells me otherwise right now. I hold my hopes up high. "Hey, Are you ready to go out now?" Ezicx asked while giving me a cap and a mask to conceal my identity 'till we reached my car that is parked outside and the reporters were scattered around the area. Ever since I gave him the chance to prove himself to me, he's been so active visiting. My papu already met him and I think things went well- although he looked really disappointed in me. My father and mother were fine with it as well. "Your brother and sister-in-law are not here yet?" He asked, speaking of them. I will just break the news to them after they returned home. Janine knew about the pregna
ANICA FAITH'S POVI started to feel morning sickness. This is due to my pregnancy and I have no one right now to satisfy all my cravings.I wanted some chicken but I do not want our maids to do it for me. I wanted a specific person but he is not right here.My bump is getting bigger, right. I am 4 weeks pregnant- it may not be that obvious now but I do not know how I will explain things when the public realized that I am currently pregnant. I called Paxter Zaint and after some minutes he was walking toward me while carrying Aphrodite "I wanted to see your face Paxter, can you come here." I asked him. He displayed a poker face as he shrugged while walking. He knows what is going to happen. He sighed out of frustration but walk towards me anyways. He put Aphrodite down, she was trying really hard to balance herself but ended up falling so she had to crawl. She is supposed to already have her first walk and first word but I think she is a little late bloomer."Can you make it quick s
ANICA FAITH'S POVOur guard called me around 6:00 am when he saw me at the door peaking on the beauty of early morning . I took my slippers and walk into his guarding post. I was about to have some nice walking exercise but I forgot a towel. The wind's breeze is making me freeze early in the morning. However that does not stop me from walking outsides anyways.When I reached the guarding post, He handed me a small box. It has a ribbon on it. I looked around, right and then left. Afraid to miss out on something. I looked at it with suspicions. Nobody, not even a fan of mine can hand their gifts in this area I am livin' right now because it is a very exclusive area only for us. "When I went here for the shifting of work, I saw that in front of the gate. I thought it was garbage, at first. I was about to throw it but I saw your name so I thought again that you must have dropped it, Madam." I just nod bowed my head for respect "Thank you." and then excuse myself. While I was walking
JANINE ERICA'S POVI looked at his working aura, it was our first night as husband and wife but ever since our wedding- he never failed to show no interest in making our relationship real. He was wearing a reading glass while the light coming from the laptop is reflecting light on his face. He was currently at his working table while I am just in a distance- appreciating his beauty. Our wedding was cut short. I remember nothing memorable, even the kiss we shared was lifeless. I think we just both put on a good act that no one ever suspects us. I sighed as I saw him not giving me any attention. I covered my Ciao Lucia Natala Dress with a sleeping robe. This dress that I am wearing right now reflects the colour of waves and oceans. This was one of the best honeymoon attires I saw on the internet. It was actually purchased prior to our wedding day but looking at him- this won't work. "Goodnight." I said. He just raised his hand and motioned a like sign. Our honeymoon vacation was al
ANICA FAITH'S POV"Hi!" I ran and hugged Janine as soon as I saw her figure at the front door. "How is the honeymoon?"I look at her and then at My brother, waiting for one of them to answer me but Aaron just excused himself " I will put our luggage in the room."He said And after that he took the luggage, carry it and then walk up in the staircase. I followed him with my gaze and when I saw that he is not around, I pull Janine's arm and motioned the maids to leave us for a while. "So, how was it?" I said, interrogating her. "Fine." She said in a tone I cannot recognize. That left me i wuestions and what ifs.I know something is not right. She does not sound right. "What's wrong? Why aren't you talking much?" I asked.She took something from her pocket and handed it to me.It was a little keychain, a Paris keychain to be specific- a souvenir from their trip. "I picked that while I was strolling around Paris. It looked cute so I brought one for you." I looked at the keychain - it was
