Wedding Ring

In the end, Gryphon didn’t show up at the event at all. Andrea knew that he was there minutes earlier before it started, but not even seeing a shadow of him there made her wonder. Moreover, Parker had spoken of something strange. That mother only had a few fears, and so she was sure that Parker knew that disturbing Gryphon’s phone call was bad for the company.It’s just that she waited for him at the event hall for the next two hours. Almost everyone else had gone home, but Ashley and Sammy continued to wait with her. They were just sitting at the side while the egress of the event was underway.With a hotdog sandwich wrapped in the expensive paper of the restaurant in the hotel, Andrea watched the grand showcase get torn down piece by piece. It was like she was staring at her fantasy life being ripped apart now that the show was over. Gryphon

How Good of a Magician Are You?

The washer whirred as Andrea stood before it. She was doing their laundry that quiet afternoon after getting drafts out there for an evaluation. No, Leon didn’t have the power to turn down the plates; she only needed the estimates and if the company could mass produce it in a few months. Moreover, he knew the master craftsmen in the field—as well as their prices.Right now, she was just humming along with the song in the background. After doing the laundry, she could start cleaning the study. The last time, she found some missing document pages there, lost some weeks ago. It was even long enough to drive Gryphon furious.Ding! There was a notification on the tablet mounted on the wall. Gryphon just entered the gates, and Andrea pressed on it to see the camera feed of him rolling up to his parking spot. When he got to the door, she just returned to a

Lion and Eagle

Seconds turned into hours, and soon, the launch was already weeks away. Andrea could notice how Gryphon was rarely going home, only to shove himself against her in the morning when he did. Unlike the last few days of their honeymoon, they barely slept together—not to mention be in the same bed. On days that Gryphon refused to leave the house, he would stick to the bed all day.The soft lock of the study clicked as Andrea opened the door with a twist. She was supposed to let the cleaning robot vacuum the floor, while she dusted the surface. However, what she saw on the couch was a sleeping Gryphon. He had his arm on his eyes, forcing himself to rest while the lights were on. It’s also noticeable how the computer played its screen saver as if it was unattended for a while now.Andrea only placed and turned on the round cleaning robot on the floor. She

Field day… It was a field day for the media people waiting outside the function rooms for anything interesting.

Another Aftermath of You

Ring! Ring! The phone kept on ringing on the nightstand. Ashley could only stare at it, knowing that Gryphon would be exploding at that very time. However, he refused to answer. Not only was it because Andrea was indeed sleeping on one side of the bed, but Ashley also heard what happened that night. He could only imagine the kind of twist it looked to Gryphon.Not that Gryphon was intending to make it look like Andrea was wrong, but Ashley knew that a part of Gryphon was too dumb to realize what really happened. That was even the part in charge of holding a relationship together.He then turned to see how Andrea slept soundly next to him.

As for the man who wouldn’t let Ashley go to sleep, however…

The sunlight she saw when she left the Dawson Villa already ran out. Her eyes were now looking out the darkening night sky that slowly descended into the city. In a few more minutes, the whole place would be completely devoured by it. However, Andrea didn’t mind; her world already succumbed to the abyss, and all that was left were bittersweet memories.Soon enough, Andrea got off her stop. She took the pre-packed luggage for her and walked around to the apartment that should belong to her for a few weeks. Along with it came a new name and identity that she should get used to.Her hair was hidden underneath a beanie that had fake hair framing her face. She had a facemask on, simulating a sickness that kept people from getting too close. Her eyes were also obscured by fashion glasses that looked like prescription ones. The shapely body was also hidden under

Gratitude and Tenacity

No one knew how; no one knew why. Four years had passed since the people had last seen Gryphon Pearce in public, as well as his wife, Andrea Archer-Pearce. The last time for the latter was at her birthday party, while Gryphon showed up at their company's New Year Party before disappearing. However, Pearce Empire kept on adhering to the CEO, and VNVS still recognized Andrea as the owner.Nothing virtually changed, but the itchy people just missed the kind of mess those two could have given the world. If this kept up, soon, everyone would forget their beautiful faces.The door creaked as it opened, the person entering annoyed by the sound it made.

Mommy, Do I Have a Daddy? (1)

“Gabby! Gabby, wake up!”She roused into the sound of a male voice, but the sound that she thought it had wasn’t the one that continued to ring out. Andrea opened her eyes and saw an older man looking down at her. An older woman was at her side, seemingly paler even if she had a tan complexion.After staring at them for a few seconds, Andrea began to remember where she was supposed to be and how she found herself there. She sat up and held her head with a hand, raking her fingers through the digitally permed dark-brown dyed hair that only reached her chin. When she brought her hand down, she smiled at the two people with her.“Thank you, Tommy, Marlene. I really appreciate you helping me tonight.” Andrea then looked down at herself. She was still wearing her work apron that had a hand-s

Mommy, Do I Have a Daddy? (2)

She remembered being so cold; then, she suddenly felt very hot. Charlotte didn’t know what happened next, but when she opened her eyes, she found herself in a spacious room. She was on a big bed, and everything else was white. There was a wristband on her slender arm, and she was only wearing the shirt she had underneath her sweater.“Mommy?” Charlotte called out, but there was no movement in the spacious room. She turned to the side and saw that the lounge-looking area was still undisturbed. No one had gone there to find her; her mommy had not gone to look for her.“Mommy?” She called out louder as she left the bed. Her soles hit the floor, and she immediately thought of looking for her slippers. Her mommy said she should always take care of her feet. There was a pair waiting at the side, so Charlotte took them before heading outs
