“I’m sorry for my behaviour last week, it was rude and inappropriate to pull a scene in a work environment. I also apologize for talking rudely to my senior in years of experience no matter our performance rate, I didn’t have any right to step out boundaries especially to you Ash.” I apologized as the whole team stared at me.
The mood was a little tight since I entered the office and even with my apology letter, everyone was being cautious as though I would explode.
I felt a public apology was the best approach to ease the mood.
“It’s all in the past plus there were things you said that were right just try to take it a little easy on us next time. We wouldn’t want you dying so soon.” Ash said as I smiled.
“True. You’re better now?” Melody asked and I nodded.
“The truth is I passed out of exhaustion. I can’t overwork now because I’m expecting a baby in a

061The next morning, I woke up to the smell of food wafting through my nose buds. I peered my eyes open and touched the bed and my body… Empty.Isaac or Sarah must have woken the kids up for school and I was the last to rise which was a usual habit since I got pregnant or rather since I started living with the Adam family.I walked down to the dinning room, scratching my hair and massaging my stomach before I got to the room where everyone was seated.I sat down and Isaac dropped some food on the table before me. I didn’t say anything as I faced the twins who seemed satisfied with their huge bowl of cereals and waffles.Sarah was trying to feed Everest who chewed the mashed food given then spat it at Sarah when she tried to feed him and giggle.“You should try the egg.” I said as I handed her my egg.“Don’t you want it?” Sarah asked.“I don’t like it.” I replied as

062 I sat opposite Ben, my legs crossed and arms folded as I stared at him. Ben didn’t seem nervous, prepared like he was waiting for today. “Now Leslie and Bennett, we’re here to come to a negotiation not fight.” The counsellor who was sent by the court said as I nodded. To plain eyes Ben looked okay but I knew when he was anxious, we’ve been married for almost six years and we knew each other’s quirks and personality. “Let us begin.” The counsellor said as she looked at the papers in her hand. “You can freely discuss whatever you like.” “It’s great to finally get the chance to talk to you.” Ben said as his eyes fell to my baby bump. “I was expecting words more like see you in court since there’s nothing to talk about.” I stated as Ben frowned. “You’re pregnant Leslie with our child, I feel we were given this opportunity to reconcile. I don’t want you to carry all the responsibility alone.” “I won’t thanks to child s

063 NB: Divorce laws are different in every country and I am doing my best to represent a divorce case in an advanced modern society ruled with the ABO system. This is a work of fiction for the goal of entertainment. I loved how small the court was and how there weren’t a lot of people in the room that weren’t needed. I was late to the court but when I looked at the right side, Azrael and Isaac were seated. “Sorry I’m late.” I apologized to Azrael and looked at Isaac but didn’t say a word before I sat down beside Azrael. “Is everything okay between the two of you?” Azrael asked and I pouted. “I don’t want to talk to him.” I replied as Azrael patted my hair. “I don’t know what is the basis of your argument but I know you’ll forgive him.” Azrael said as I squinted my eyes. “What makes you so sure?” I asked and he smirked. “Because you know how to forgive Leslie even if it takes time. You also know you n

The work to a divorce was too much and I was starting to understand why my parents would never file a divorce even if they got tired of each other.“You should take your pills.” I said when as I handed Leslie the bottle of vitamins when it was time.“Thank you.” Leslie said as he collected the bottle of water and the pills.He took the pills and handed me the bottle before he cleaned his mouth to listen to Bennett’s statement attentively.“I don’t want to waste much of our time giving a full account so I’ll give my account from a year ago.

LeslieI stared at my reflection as I stared at the scissors before I stared at my hair that I had gathered together in my hand. I exhaled as I brought the scissors to my hair.“Here goes nothing.” I said to my reflection before I cut my hair extremely short.I watched my hair falling to the ground as I took my time giving it a neat style before I dropped the scissors.I took a shower and stepped out before I went to the living room as Reina came out of the kitchen with a cup of coffee in her hand.“Leslie would you…” She paused as she stared at me.I blushed, feeling a little self-conscious about my new look before I made eye contact with Reina.“Do I look good?” I asked.“You look amazing.” Reina said. “I didn’t think you were great with scissors.”She said as she approached me, dropping her tea before she touched the tip of my hair.“You should cut your hair more often. It suits you.” Reina released my hair. “Ever thought of dying it, pink will be a great colour.”“No. I’ve dyed my

It was close to midnight when Azrael brought me back to Reina’s place. I opened the front door and Reina was awake watching a sitcom on TV with an empty plate of mac and cheese with a glass of red wine.“Welcome back. I thought you’d sleep over at his place?”“I have to pee.” I said and headed for the bathroom.Another troublesome experience about pregnancy, the regular bathroom breaks. I came out after taking a shower and Reina was on her laptop, a little after midnight. I picked up the box Azrael brought and sat beside her.“You shouldn’t be working on your day off.” I said.“The rich never sleep.” Reina replied and went back to typing.I shook my head and ripped the wrapper, catching Reina’s attention. I opened the white box that covered the wrapper and it was a box of rare sweets so difficult to find with a note on top.“Every day with you is like a box of chocolate. It’s either sweet or dark, coffee or caramel.” I read and pulled out the box.Inside was a shirt that had half a he

“What do you think of this? I like the design.” I said as I raised the baby cloth to Isaac.“No. The designs are a little too dark for a newborn, maybe when he’s two.” Isaac grabbed the cloth and tossed aside. “Babies like bright colours and light. We also should consider that the baby could look like you in the selection.”“Albinism isn’t a dominant trait in any of our family.”“But it’s your dominant trait.”I sighed and picked a cap with baby ducks drawn on it.“That’s cute.” Isaac agreed with my choice and added it to the pile of baby things we had around.I assumed we were going to do most of our shopping online, but coming out and doing a live search felt good when I wasn’t going for a routine maternal check-up.“Should we get more?” Isaac asked, and I shook my head.“The baby has more clothes than I could wear in a year, even if he could puke everything he eats.”Isaac laughed and handed the cashier his card, much to my disapproval. He was very adamant on paying for everything,

I enter the kitchen and start preparing school lunch for my kid.Ida joins me in the kitchen around six to make breakfast for everyone except I package Azrael’s breakfast because he wakes up when the driver takes Niko to school.Azrael wakes up around ten and eats breakfast late if he eats at all. On days Azrael wakes up early, I don’t work at home.I continue to unwrap wedding gifts from family, friends and fans, sorting things to give out and donate with the servants until I get exhausted.Our habits didn’t change after marriage, and we’ve been married for five months, but things were different in a good way. Pleasant.At least until now.I bolted to the bathroom and crouched in front of the toilet, gripped the toilet seat and hurled in the bowl.

My hair was ready, cut shorter than the original length and gelled.Ancel opened the door, surveying seriously with a small note in his hand. He stayed at me and pulled out a white rose from the vase in the room.He placed the rose in my pocket and patted it.“Perfect but I liked the white suit better.”“You were going to make me wear a long veil if I wore that and this is my second marriage.”“You and Azrael would match but the blue isn’t bad. Soft and stable and I get to see you marry.” Ancel said and the door opened.Dad entered with a bouquet of hydrangeas and minor flowers. I recognised the flowers from mom’s garden and dad handed it to me.“Ancel, could you give us a minute?” Dad asked and Ancel winked.“Sure thing pops, have to make sure the set’s perfect.” Ancel said and left the room with

The doorbell rang, and I opened it. Kaiyo stood there with a pout on his face and glared at me. I spread my arms across the door and leaned back a little.“You’re not here to dump tomato juice on me again, are you?” I asked, and he blushed.I smiled and lowered my arms.“I came to apologise, so listen closely, because I won’t say it again.” He puffed his chest and placed his hand on his hip. “I’m sorry for splashing juice on you and saying embarrassing things.”“Stay away from Mitsuki. You don’t deserve him. He’s mine.” I teased, and he turned red.“S-stop teasing me. Y-you be kissing my feet. I came here today.”I patted his head and smiled. “Do you want ice-cream? Sundae?”“What flavour?” He shook his head and wiped his mouth. “I’m not a dog.”He acted like Becca’s, one of Isaac’s twins in her teenage stage that doesn’t want to be smouldered by adults. It’s difficult to find innocence and pure naivety at his age these days.Everything I wouldn’t describe Lucas, me or Oliver as.“Com

They were all waiting, so I raised my hand to reveal the wedding ring.“Yes!!!” Everyone cheered.Some high-fives and hugged me.“Congratulations!” Isaac said and grinned. “You’re marrying my brother again. Welcome to the family.”We laughed at the joke, and I nudged Isaac.“I can’t wait to tell everyone, and it was all thanks to me.” Ancel gloated and pulled out his phone.“Hold on there cowboy, Lucas might have already beat you to it. He was the first person Azrael called to while we were in Japan.”“I’m still going to spice it up more. I still have a picture of the ring.” Ancel said and started typing.“Thank you.” I whispered to Ancel. “For helping me with the ring.”Ancel nudged me and smiled. “Anytime. Patronise my company to decorate your wedding. I’ll give a discount even though your fiancée is one of the wealthiest living things in the world.”“Of course.

No sleep for me if he was awake, talking my ears out on all the places he wanted to go.I never want him to cry or feel lonely when I’m around.“I can’t wait to take a lot of pictures.” Leslie said, and I sighed.“I’ve missed hot spring baths.”The train stopped, and we headed for one of the popular temples in Kyoto – Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine.We took a lot of pictures with a temple guide giving the history of the temple. I didn’t believe in any gods, unlike my parents and Leslie is Christian, so I couldn’t understand his fascination with temples.“Should we buy a charm or two? Maybe a souvenir?” Leslie asked.“Kid, these god statures aren’t for decorations and children touch things they shouldn’t. Let’s stick with the papers that won’t leave t

We sat down and stared at Dr. Steve.My chest was heavy and my hands sweaty. I exhaled to ease the discomfort in my gut.“I have a few questions.” Dr. Steve said, and we nodded. “When was the first time you noticed your ward’s condition?”I stared at Ben, and he nodded in understanding.“When he was three. Nikolaus has always responded to the colour red as a baby, so I thought he liked the colour and yesterday, I confirmed he sees everything as red, with few exceptions.” I narrated, and Dr. Steve nodded.“What exceptions?” Dr. Steve asked.“Himself, me and objects that are actually the colour red.”Dr. Steve stared intensely at the both of us and exh
