All Chapters of His Untold Lies: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

KIAHe didn't really speak to me or ask how my day was when we came home, and he hardly even looked at me. What issue might he have? Maybe I really need to talk to him since it's bothering me a lot. But first, I need to take a shower. I felt like Vincent's hands were still in my body. I immediately went to the bathroom and did my thing.While taking a shower, my mind was filled with random thoughts. They kept on running in my head even though I really didn't intentionally think about them. I also have a lot of questions in my mind. I was wondering why the people you love will destroy your trust and crave to gain your trust again when you are already healed or making progress with your life. Do they really enjoy destroying someone's peace of mind? How can they say that they love the person if they didn't even think about the things that would hurt them? Or maybe he really didn't love me but he loved to make me suffer and didn't want me to see someone else. I don't know... there are a

KIAI got out of bed and walked into the kitchen, where I could smell the aroma of freshly prepared coffee, just like every other day. Early in the morning, my husband was up making breakfast. Even though I'm not a morning person, the aroma of that coffee easily roused me this morning. I wouldn't have woken up so quickly if it had been any other day. This day didn't really feel like any other day for some reason. Perhaps because Ares will finally meet my dad, my annoying stepmother, and my half-sister on this day.Ares stood in front of the stove with his left hand on his hip, his right hand holding a spatula. Golden batter bubbled on the griddle. I stood to his right, leaning against a cabinet. He watched me watch him.Although I now eat browned pancakes, knowing that the color delivers taste, I craved golden pancakes. I couldn’t stomach a touch of darkness. The front pancakes on the griddle would stay yellow, but each pair leading to the back carried a tan hint. My husband stacked t

KIAI was walking home after a long and tiring day. The sultry air and dimming light from the sunset seemed to perfect the unostentatious feel of our small town. While walking I passed by a market, and that is when I remember that we were out of fresh milk in the refrigerator. As I entered the supermarket the guard welcomed me with a big smile. I smiled at him and walk toward the fresh milk section. I grabbed two since it is a buy one take one. I was about to pay when I suddenly notice some bread in the corner. I grabbed a shopping cart and placed my two fresh milk. While roaming around the market I didn't notice that my shopping cart is almost full. I scratched my head as I walked toward the cashier. After paying all of it I decided to ride a tricycle all the way to our house. When I arrived in front of our home, I sighed heavily, pushing past the screen door and entering our small house. When I suddenly felt dizzy, I immediately grabbed the door handle and said, “Oh, I am maxed ou

KIAI made sure to wake up early to prepare lunch for Ares. I’m still a bit nervous, but I think I can do it. I just hope that he will like the taste of the meal that I will cook for him. I went to the kitchen, and the first thing I did was wash my hands. I decided to cook my favorite meal for today’s lunch. I grabbed my phone and played “Sometimes by Britney Spears” and started cooking. While the aroma of the food being cooked kept my nose engrossed. When I finished cooking, I cleaned the lunchbox and set it on the table. First I prepared fried rice, and then when the oven beeped, a sign that roasted chicken was cooked. I brought it out and started slicing it. The rice was well cooked but wasn't too oily, and the chicken was roasted brown, a bit overdone, just the way I preferred. I prepare the meal in the lunch box. Both looked delicious. I hadn’t eaten anything this morning, so without wasting any more time, I took some rice and grabbed a large chicken drumstick on my plate. I to

Her eyes gradually opened. This morning, she didn't experience the typical harsh jolt that shakes her out of her sleep. It seemed more like Mother's soft voice was gently lulling her to wakefulness while gently enticing her. Her sleepy brain slowly realized that the room was still dark. The dark blue shadows of the waning night lingered around the folds of the curtains. There was that tinge of gathering light that made the darkness somehow comfortable and cozy. She rolled over and let out a lazy yawn. It was too early to get up. She lay there, unwilling to think back on the agony of the previous night and content to simply savor the peaceful moments of sleep before the sun awoke the rest of the world and ordered everyone to resume their hectic schedules. She then realized Ares wasn't lying next to her. She made the decision to walk into the living room to check, but to her surprise, Ares wasn't anywhere to be seen.Kianna asked herself, "Did he go to work so early?”She noticed a meal
