Chapter 21 Johnson’s Anger

Everyone in the hall regarded Alexandrine as not knowing who she was and why the hostess was so pissed at her grandson. Alexandrine looked at the scene in sadness, especially the scene her soon-to-be ex-husband was giving with his lover, Tina.“ Once again, he’s taking Tina’s side,” Alexandrine muttered silently. Alexandrine felt embarrassed showing this embarrassing side of herself in front of everyone and more importantly that she didn’t know how to qualify herself and introduce herself in front of everyone.To stop the scene that was taking place, Alexandrine approached Johnson’s grandmother and held her hand softly, “ Grandmother, let it be!” She said before everyone, questioning themselves even more as to who I was. Johnson finally noticed Alexandrine dripping wet and wondered what might have happened to her.“ Alexandrine, what happened to you? Why are you dripping wet?” The latter asked out of concern without leaving Tina’s side even for an instant. Alexandrine didn’t let her s

Chapter 22 Scandal

A couple of minutes earlier, as Alexandrine was in the shower, she thought of what happened earlier in the main hall; How Johnson got angry over her and wanted to punish his cousin Meredith for slandering her.“ He was so cool back there that I almost fell for him all over again,” Alexandrine muttered as the water was sipping through her. “ How good would that be if beneath that anger, there was some love for me?” She muttered again as she lightly touched her tummy.“ I wouldn’t have to leave Johnson and we would be one happy big family with our baby.” She muttered joyfully before thinking how she could have lost her baby when she was pushed into the swimming pool by Meredith.“ Thank God nothing happened to you, baby.” Alexandrine was grateful most of all that her baby had escaped unscathed as anything could have happened in there, but she was happy that in the end, things were resolved peacefully.Later, when Alexandrine finished showering, she looked around her and realized that sh

Chapter 23 Moving On

After Johnson had departed to the hospital, Alexandrine tried to process what had just happened. She wanted to understand why and how the news about their divorce had reached the media.“ Who could have done this?” Alexandrine tried to figure out who could have done such an evil act. “ Only three of us were aware of the divorce.” As she tried to think, she was horrified and she subconsciously thought, “ Could Tina be the one who leaked the news of our divorce over to the media?”Not pondering on the matter any longer, Alexandrine clothed herself and headed straight to the hospital where Johnson’s mother was taken.Meanwhile, at the hospital, there was no news about Johnson's grandmother’s condition. Johnson was worried and blamed himself for her state. Tina tried to comfort him, “ None of what happened today is your fault. You shouldn’t blame yourself.”Tina’s words seemed to have an effect on Johnson who hugged her tightly. Tina patted the back of his head and said, “ Everything will

Chapter 24 Starting Over From Scratch

“ You mentioned earlier that you needed a place to move in, right?” Estrella asked her friend who nodded in response. Later, she said, “ Why look for another place when you can just live here with me?”Alexandrine was hesitant before answering. Seeing how hesitant she was getting from answering her question, she said, “ You want to be independent, am I right?”“ I’m sorry, Estrella.” Alexandrine nodded as she admitted her friend was right. “ I don’t want to trouble you by living off you.”Estrella was a bit offended by her last statement. “ What do you mean, living off of me?”Alexandrine apologized for offending her as she didn’t mean it. She told Estrella that in order to make a fresh start for herself and her upcoming baby, she needed to face the world and she needed to do that alone. Estrella happened to get what she was saying and supported her decision for doing what was best for her and her baby.“ I’ll support you in your little endeavors. I’m your friend, after all.” She chuc

Chapter 25 A Good Night's Sleep

“ Johnson, what are you doing here?” Alexandrine asked the latter who didn’t say anything. He simply looked at her and caressed her face. She tried to break free but he was too strong for her.Staring at her, he said, “ Why don’t you guess the reason I’m here?”Johnson dragged her inside her house and locked it. Before Alexandrine had time to react to the situation, he kissed her crazily. Throughout the kiss, she smells the heavy smell of alcohol on him, deducting him to be drunk.With great difficulty, Alexandrine managed to break the kiss and slapped him hard. “ What do you think you’re doing, Johnson?” She shouted at him. Johnson simply looked at her without uttering a word. “ I’m not Tina, so stop behaving like an ass, or else, I’ll call the police on you.”“ You’ll call the police on me, huh?” Johnson forcibly grabbed her by the shoulders. “ Were you so in a hurry to divorce me so you could move in with your lover?” Johnson was blattering nonsense after nonsense. Alexandrine knew

Chapter 26 Earnest Apology?

As Johnson had yet to open the door to my bedroom, I sat on the sofa silently. What was he doing inside my bedroom anyway? What was he looking for? What did he come here to accomplish?Seated on the sofa thinking through all those questions, I seemed to be remembering a conversation I had with Estrella a few days ago.“ What will you do if he ever regrets?” Estrella asked me one morning all of a sudden. The way she formulated her question, I didn’t know who she was referring to until I asked her myself. “ Who shall regret?”“ Your ex-husband, duh!” She replied. “ Who else could I have been talking about but your ex-husband?”Looking at her, I didn’t know how to answer her. Her question to me was hypothetical and I was confused by the nature of my feelings. Despite how Johnson had treated me, I can’t deny that I still love him, so what would I do if he were to apologize to me and ask to start over? Would I be swayed into going back to him and starting our life afresh? What about Tina?

Chapter 27 Inspiration

The following morning, after Alexandrine woke up, she remembered the eventful day she had yesterday with both Johnson and Tina making a ruckus. She thought of how difficult her life had always been and how now, she intended for it to change." I should have breakfast and start looking at job prospects." She muttered before standing up and heading into the bathroom to take a shower. The shower took approximately twenty to twenty-five minutes in total.After fully dressing up and eating breakfast, she started looking at job postings in the journal. The kind of job she was interested in when she graduated was being a wedding designer, but that dream of hers never took form due to Johnson and his sudden proposal to get married. She threw away her hopes, dreams, and aspirations into the trash just for him and now she was realizing how dumb it had been to give up everything just for a man without giving it a second thought." These pictures, these photos are only just memories with no deep

Chapter 28 Swayed

When I reached my company the following day, my secretary came into my office with some reports and a contract." Hello, Sir!" He greeted me before saying, " Here's today's schedule." He handed me the documents alongside the contract." What's this?" I asked, confused. I should have known what it was that was handed to me but as of recently, I wasn't paying that much attention to work as my focus wasn't there.The secretary looked at me and said in quite a serious tone. " You need to get your act together, Sir!" " This is the contract offer for the design company that contacted us for cooperation, remember?" As he said that, I seemed to remember something like that happening a few days ago." Was there anything else you needed to tell me?" I asked as he wasn’t leaving my office even after handling everything he needed to give me. " Well, the thing is, Ms. Tina is here and she's been waiting for you for a while now."" Tina's here?" I was a bit surprised to learn of this. Could she hav

Chapter 29 D.W. Corporation

I woke up to the sound of my phone buzzing continuously. I was stunned when I saw a response from the design company I applied for." D. W. Corporation responded to me? I sat up straight on the bed to read the response to the job. The description of the job went like this, " Ms. Alexandrine Claire, we saw your designs and appreciated your creativity and passion. It's with immense pleasure that we accept your application and welcome you to D.W. Corporation. We'll be expecting you tomorrow to fill up all the necessary paperwork. Welcome once again!"I was delighted just reading the response alone. I couldn't believe that I got accepted into such a famous and renowned company. My life was going to turn around after this for sure, was what I was thinking as I read the components of the email sent to me by D.W. Corporation over and over again.The following morning, I headed straight to D. W. Corporation after having breakfast. I was welcomed by a middle-aged woman named Doriane who invite

Chapter 30 Half The Truth

" Alright; We'll celebrate the news of you finding a job another time." Estrella showed her understanding as she hung up the phone from her side.As I hugged the phone, I looked for a taxi to head to my parent's place. It took a while for me to find a taxi as the road was crowded for some reason. On my way to their place, I thought of what I was going to tell them. I hesitated whether I should tell them the whole truth or just half of the truth. The decision wasn't easy to make." Miss, we've arrived at your destination." I got out of the taxi and paid the driver for his services. As the driver drove away after getting his money, I slowly headed toward the door.Before I could knock on it to signal my presence, my father opened it for me. " Welcome home my dear daughter!" He greeted me gently and affectionately." Yes, I'm home, Father." I greeted him with the same courtesy he showed me. " How did you know I was at the door just now without me even needing to knock?" I asked.My fathe
