BASH     My rage is still over the edge. I can’t even think straight. No one else came and out of my penthouse, only Trinity. So, this is all the silence and odd behavior are all about? How did she even know? I never tell anyone about that journal. I have never gone through the pages of it, and worse, I don’t have any copy of it. What gives her interest in that? I hear Edmund’s voice from the doorway since I keep my office door open. “I’m in here!” I yell from my desk where I use to lean on. I feel like I lost all my strength. Edmund and Derek are almost in the same sizes, but Derek is a lot younger than him, and he’s in his mid-thirties. “What’s wrong, Bash?” Derek speaks. “Have you seen the feeds?” I am referring to the video footage. Edmund raises his brow. “Video feeds? Yes. Nothing’s off in your parking area, elevator, and outside your penthouse. Why did you ask?” I clench

Risk

BASH     It’s almost eleven in the morning when I check the time on my wristwatch. Everyone seems to relax a little. “Trinity, let’s go,” I almost plead, and I don’t care what happened earlier. I want to get out of this place as fast as I can, away from Rexwell. She walks in my direction as she looks at Rexwell. I feel a pang inside my chest, and m I guess she’s trying to say something to Rexwell with that look. Rexwell looks back at her, then he meets my gaze. “Bash—” I raise my hand. I don’t want to fight with Rexwell again and not in this place. I’m beyond pissed, but I don’t care about his shit. “You’ve done enough, Rexwell. You put my girlfriend’s life in jeopardy. I’ll let it go this time because I was here when that happened, but you’ll not gonna drag her to your mess again or whatever you are dealing with that goddamn man!” I wish I can punch him with eye contact. I can’t believe he’s so selfish to dra

Perfect

TRINITY     I enter the Night Stalker with Bash gripping my hand. I had to bribe him to come with me. As always, this club is jam-packed. This club has been closed for weeks due to the incident that happened with Mr. Tennings. “Over here!” My eyes fix to where the voice comes from. Our friends occupy the two L-shape black leather couches, facing each other at the left corner of the Bar. “Thank God! I thought the two of you are going to bail us,” Lizzy says, rises from her seat, and gives us both a hug. “I was planning to, but Trinity bribed me that I couldn’t say no.” His sister waves her hand to dismiss him. “I don’t wanna know.” Everyone chuckles. Bash takes a seat at the end corner of the couch, pulling me to sit on his lap. Sean walks in, scanning the place. “Sean!” I yell at the top of my lungs. He grins when he sees me as he comes towards us. Everyone curses, certainly not

Walk Out

TRINITY     “Hello, love. Fancy meeting you again.” The woman calls Bash as if they know her very well. What’s catches my attention is her thick English Londoner. My officemates look at her like she’s a supermodel. Well, she can be a supermodel if the baby bump is not visible. “Dana?” Bash knows her, of course. His voice explains that he’s surprised to see her, and he looks terribly shocked. Dana? The Dana? His ex? And pregnant? If I have to guess, I think she’s in her second trimester. Bash came back just the last three months. Dana throws herself to Bash, hugging him tightly like everyone around is invisible. Bash still looks shocked with his brows furrowed. He looks at her from head to toe then back to her face then to her belly. I swallow hard, and my eyes instantly fill with tears. I wish I can control my emotion, but when I feel sad and upset, my eyes are always the first to respond. My gaze meets Sean’s

Drunk and Depressed

TRINITY   Last night, Sean told me about our high school days before I went to my room, and I’m not that drunk to forget what happened last night. I know this isn’t Sean beside me because I know how it feels when Bash is around. He has my heart, but how about that pregnant woman? What is he doing here with me? I can also feel the ring on my finger, which I can’t remember I put it back on. He must have seen it on top of the dresser where I left. Bash stirs, pulling me closer to him. I can even feel his morning wood pressed against my butt. His arm tightens around my waist because he knows that I’m already awake. “Morning, drunkass.” His voice makes me shiver. Something down there awakens at his presence, and he kisses my shoulder. “No good morning back for your fiancé, Trinity?” he asks when I haven’t said anything. I swallow the lump forming in my throat. “What are you doing here, Bash?” I know he wants to talk to me, but

Luke's Advise

TRINITY   Loving so much it hurts, being lied to hurts a lot. But I can feel everything we shared these last three months was real. How could he do this to me? What should I do now? I’ve no place to go. I finally decided to move in with Bash last month when he’s been bugging me that I should stay with him for a good just a week before I moved in. I gave my apartment to Luke and Ryker, and now I’m homeless. “Tri, I was thinking this many times. I think we should stay together.” My fork freezes in my mouth. The dessert is delicious, and I can’t get enough of it. “What can you say?” He looks at me across the table. I pull the fork out of my mouth and swallow the panna cotta. It melts in my mouth, and the aroma of rum fills in my nose. But I’m I almost choked at Bash’ words, not the dessert I’m devouring. “Come again?” I’m such a stupid like I didn’t comprehend what he said.

Wind Chime

BASH   It’s been three days since the last time I saw Trinity. I made a decision that I hope was for our own good. I want her to realize that I love her, and I never lied to her. It was torture not to hear anything from her. I even cancel my business trip to the U.K. After sending Dana and her husband to the airport, I came here to my family’s beach house where I was supposed to surprise Trinity after our engagement party. That was my plan, but she ruined it. I already planned a week’s vacation. I was planning to spend it with her, but damn it! Everything went wrong. She doesn’t trust me even a bit. I missed her so much, though. Not a single day I didn’t think about her. More guilt flashes through me, and I should’ve talked to her, but I was taken over by my anger, pain, and disappointment. Teaching her lessons maybe will make her think before judging. Maybe we only lack communication? We’ve been apart for four years, we c

Painting

TRINITY   Experts said when someone is depressed, he should involve himself with aspiring things and makes time for the things that makes him feels better. I spent every day in this street market since I arrived here in Paris. The entire city has a lot to offer, but art makes me feel better—it gives me a little happiness and diverts me from my sorrows. I found time to visit some historic places; museums, restaurants, and of course, art galleries. I remember Bash told me that once you’re an artist, you will always be an artist. When I grab the paintbrush, start mixing colors on my palette, and brush my canvass, it feels like I did this for years and have never stopped. When Bash gave me a set of art supplies on my sixteenth birthday, I started to paint since then. I still love to sketch, though, when I didn’t want to get messy with paints. It feels natural for me. This is what I love doing after all. Either sketching or pai

Baby on Board

BASH   I catch my wife’s unconscious body before she falls straight to the floor. She just turns pale then her eyes flutter close. Everyone gasps and starts to panic. I hold her in my arms when everyone comes surrounding us. “Move away. Give her some air!” I yell while my wife is still in my arms. “Do we have a doctor or a medical expert around?” Mom’s voice fills in the air. “She will be okay, Mom. Just calm down. You will be the next to collapse if you won’t calm down.” Trinity’s parents come closer. “She’ll be alright. I need to bring her to the suite,” I tell them while they’re clutching each other’s arms. I’m not worried. Trinity doesn’t complain about anything weird. She’s maybe a little bit overwhelmed, and I know she has a steady heartbeat because I can feel her warm breath on my neck. When I walk out of the reception area, I hear their footsteps get close. I can’t blame them, though, and they’re just worri

Baby Daddy

TRINITY   The sonographer presses the transducer on my exposed tummy. Bash squeezes my hand stronger unbeknownst while his eyes are pinned to the monitor. “What does it say? Is everything okay? She’s pregnant, right? Is it a twin? When will we gonna find out the gender of our baby or babies?” He has been babbling since we came to our appointment. The sonographer stops and looks at smiling Bash. “Mr. Hughes, I know you’re excited to find out just like any other soon-to-be dad. Just relax, and Dr. Lee will answer all your questions.” Bash releases a deep sigh. “And you’ve been squeezing my hand, Bash. Relax, I should be the one feeling nervous because I’m the one here having a baby inside my tummy.” “I’m not nervous. I’m just excited. I agreed with you to get a check-up here and not in Paris or Greece or Italy.” Bash scratches his head. He only stops when Dr. Lee walks inside the ultrasound room. We drive back to the
