Lahat ng Kabanata ng Forbidden Temptation: Kabanata 51 - Kabanata 60

Mom and I went on a little shopping spree and Chanel, came along with us. I would have invited one of my own friends, but all the ones I called were busy, so I let it go anyways. Besides, there still wasn’t anyone who knew about the pregnancy, and if I mentioned a wedding at my age they would probably guess, so I was a little glad no one had the time.I felt a lot safer with just Mom, her friend and me.Besides going to the boutique to look through and try dresses, we went around to look at shoes, some purses and accessories. After exhausting myself for most of the day, Mom and Chanel were ready to move on to flowers, but it was pretty late already. I would have gone to dinner with them, when they invited me, but I got a text from Liam at around the same time, so I went to see him instead.I practically dragged my feet to my front door, where Liam was already waiting for me, and I opened the door for us to walk in. we were both silent, until I walked into my bedroom and dropped onto t

“Someone help me!” I called out, feeling frantic.We were still at home, about ready to head out to the church. Mom and I were both already in our dresses. She had her friends around, and I had mine, and yet somehow, my house had been made into chaos.“What is it, honey?” Mom asked, coming up to me.“My earring. I can't seem to get it on,” I lamented. I was bent over a vanity mirror, in my dress but nothing else. I still needed to have my make-up properly done, then get my hair done. I glanced over at Mom and felt a little like crying.She was mostly done already, and I was barely halfway! How much time did we still have to waste!“Shit!” I cursed, straightening up with a wince.“Language!” Mom said automatically. Then, she added, with some level of concern, “Adele, what’s wrong? Give me the earring; I’ll help you.”“I think I broke it,” I said in a wobbly voice, holding it out for her to see. I rubbed my ear with my other hand because it stung a little. “Seriously, Mom! I’ve put on e

In the end, I decided not to wait until I had the baby to go to college. Instead, I applied with Liam, and though we were aiming for different fields, it was the first year, so we had several classes together. Mom had moved in with Henry, while Liam and I stayed at my place. We hadn't decided yet if we were going to stay there permanently, or look for a different place and allow Mom to sell the house, but for the moment, everything was perfect.It didn’t skip my mind how Liam’s bike had disappeared after that night we found Mom ready to move her stuff out of Henry’s place. In the week after that, Liam had proposed, helped set up the wedding, and we’d gotten married. Every surprise he had for me involved his bike, and I’d been sad that it was gone. When I mentioned it to him, he just said how he was working his ass off to buy it back, and I could only respond with a laugh.We had a car, though, at least. Henry had given us the family car, so he got to share my mom’s car instead. It was

My mom and Liam’s dad were going to spend the day with Harmony; Liam’s birth mother was even going to join them in spoiling her, and then she was going to spend the night over with them. She was four-years-old already and didn’t exactly mind the attention, taking after her dad in one more thing, among others, including her pretty looks.She should be starting school soon…and the idea of it scared me, the fact that she's grown up so fast.Where did the time go?It was something I had to talk to Liam about at some point. For the moment, she was still going to daycare, but it would probably be better to get her into kindergarten already instead of waiting too long, or she’d end up older than the other kids in her class.I was pretty much a stay at home mom, even though I’d gone through college and gotten my degree. It wasn’t something I couldn’t put to use while staying at home, anyway. Considering how far the world had advanced already, it wouldn’t be so difficult to get a job online wi

It had been a whole day since the dinner fiasco. I’d stopped crying a while back, but I was still pretty bummed out about it. Liam noticed, and he’d left me alone since then. I hated that he had, though, because he didn’t even come to the bedroom to sleep last night. I must have cried myself to sleep, and when I woke, I found him sleeping on the couch in the same outfit from yesterday with his jacket thrown over him.Since he’d ignored me first, I’d done the same to him throughout most of the day. We didn’t eat the food from yesterday, but at least I’d left it all covered, so all it needed was some warming. In fact, last night’s dinner was pretty much all we had throughout the day; I warmed separate portions for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We ate separately and stayed in different rooms of the house.I hated how it felt like we were in a fight when the reason I was in such a mood wasn’t even because of him.Is he just going to let things stay like this? I mused to myself as I lay in
