ACE
I finally shut my laptop, after a two hour study. I was done with my work and It was already nine in the morning. I woke up early, and hurried to do everything I needed to do for the day.
It was our last day at Miami, and we hardly even enjoyed it. Whenever we wanted to have fun, it was either I acted like a complete git, or I'd get tired for no reason.
I was sure Emily was regretting the fact, that she had to come here with me. It didn't seem like she was enjoying her vacation at all. And all thanks to me.
I sighed tiredly and sauntered to the bagel she had dropped for me, before she left.
I had no idea of what she was up to, and I didn't ask either. For some reason, I wasn't interested in anything, but home. I couldn't wait to get there. I just couldn't.
I turned back at the settee, and walked to it.
I was about t
ACEI parked my car in the garage, and headed to the mansion. I was so curious to get home, and finally feel comfortable.I was supposed to be home by 11:00am, but I changed my mind completely. I booked an early ticket for 5:00am. It was quite obvious that Emily wasn't fine with that, but I ignored. I thought of having another trip with her, when I was stable enough."Gabriel." I called one of my workers, before stepping in."Yes sir." He hurried to me."Grab my stuffs in the boot, and bring it in." I ordered. And before he could reply, I rambled in.I was so exhausted. I needed bed rest. At the hotel, I couldn't sleep on the same bed with Emily. I insisted on paying for another room, but she refused. She said she was too scared to stay alone, especially in an unknown place. It was quite uncomfortable, but I had to do it. I was so
I impelled back and forth on my bed, and slowly opened my eyes. I was still so exhausted. My head was really crying for help. It felt like pieces of rocks were leaping in my skull. I couldn't explain the pain that was being inflicted on me. In one word, it was overwhelming. "Arrgh!" I groaned in pain, and tugged the back of my neck with my hands. "Ace," Mia's angelic voice sounded from the side of my bed. I wanted to cry to her, and beg her to call a doctor, but I just didn't know how to. How was I going to say it? How could those words even leave my lips? I jerked my eyes open, and turned to her. She looked so disturbed and scared.
MIA "Well, the only alternate option right now, is to use the medicines I've prescribed. But that may not seem to work so fast," the doctor vividly stated. I turned to Ace who was standing by the side of the bed, his facial expression blank, as if he wasn't interested in what the doctor was saying. "Are you sure?" he asked again. "I'm willing to give you extra money. Isn't there a way you can perform a surgical operation on her?" I raised a brow at him, and giggled silently. "I don't want surgery." My response was firm, firm enough to shut the doctor up from saying anything. I was pretty sure the doctor would regret that he had to encounter a cl
I still stared at my phone as it rang. He was already calling for the second time, and I still hadn't made a decision, whether or not to pick it.I didn't want any form of distraction in my life. My life was already so complicated to aggravate it further. I just didn't know what to do.I sighed and finally decided to switch it off. That was the best way to avoid any calamity from befalling me. I really wished to speak with him, in order to get rid of my sad thought, but my marriage was at stake.Being close to him could severely hurt my marriage. It was only going to confuse my already confused life, and worsen my problems. I couldn't let such. My life was already so difficult.I sat by the bedside, and waited patiently for Ace to come upstairs. If he didn't like me, there was a way I could let him do. I could probably start up from friendship. If he wasn't ready to take the move, I was. 
I still somewhat hesitated, as we faced each other. He was scowling intensely as I stared calmly. I didn't know how to begin. I also had doubt if he'd believe me. He seemed to have fed his mind with thoughts of how well I wanted his money. He didn't even know the real stuff. I hoped he'd believe me completely. I was too innocent for this shit. I expired and swallowed calmly. "Firstly," I began. "I want to ask you some questions." He scoffed and released his folded arms, tucking them into his shorts. "What now? Ask for my money? Or ask for something more expensive?"I furrowed my brows at him, weakly. Why did he have such a crazy mentality? It wasn't fine at all. "No." I stated sharply."Then what?" He retorted. "Would you let me speak?" I requested. "Ok. I'll let you speak. Go on.""Ace." I called softly. "Thinking about it, have I ever asked y
MIAI stepped out of the bathroom, and walked to the closet, still wrapping a towel across my chest. I was so joyful, that it began to cause a confusion for me. I couldn't explain how well I felt, to finally be able to tell Ace the truth. I didn't even know why I had not done that in a long time. Ace wasn't in the room and wasn't anywhere close. He had left for the study earlier. When we woke up in the morning, he greeted first. I thought I was still in a dream. In fact, he didn't frown at all. He only wore a completely normal look. I was getting to feel that my husband was finally going to change towards me. I only hope for my feeling to be right, cause he was the most erractic person I had ever seen. I unwrapped the towel, and dropped it on its holder, sliding on a dark blue pencil jeans trouser, and a red tank top. I brushed my already dried hair, neatly, and slipped on some slippers, heading
ACEI stared dumbly at Emily, as she spoke about her holiday in Australia. I was so tired of listening to it already. She was probably waiting for me to get excited, but I was too tired for that. She didn't even allow me to focus on my work, all day long. She had been around since ten in the morning, and wasn't willing to leave yet, although it was already eight. I was really frustrated already.When it was five, I wanted to ask her to leave, but she seemed to be so amazed, and I didn't want her lonely life to haunt her. I always loved it when I saw her happy. It always made her horrific past to not overshadow her. It always made me glad as well.Besides the fact that Emily was talking too much, I was also stressed out for some reason. After my fight with Mia, I couldn't get myself. I couldn't express how well I was frustrated, and how well I regretted my reaction.I just didn't understand why I cou
ACE"And that's the end of today's meeting." One of my workers, Mr Daniel, stated. Finally!I sighed, and dismissed everyone immediately. I was already tired of the meeting. After a while of listening to what he was saying, I completely zoned off. I was lost for some reason. "Mr Norman." Mr Daniel called, as he sauntered to me. "How was my presentation? Do you think it's going to yield a great result?" He asked. I stared at him blankly. "What presentation?" I asked confusingly. "Sir...the one I just finished." He stated. I chuckled perplexingly. "Oh. That one. I'll get back to you soon.""Ok." He added, as he walked out of meeting room. To be sincere, I wasn't listening at all. I didn't even have a hint of all he stated. All I could tell was, I saw him speaking. My mind wasn't even connected to anything he men
