Miss Perfect and Her New Boss 124: Homecoming
The ride home was excruciatingly long and uncomfortable. Thankfully, both ZG and Zia couldn’t keep their mouths shut and they were talking the whole ride home. ZG has always been close with his dad, so him being so talkative with him is expected. What surprised me is how Zia was so close to him. I mean, this was their first time seeing each other for two, almost three years and they act like they’ve been seeing each other every day.I could really see the difference in their attitude to Gavin compared to Nathan. I guess because they’re blood, they somehow have a connection even with being away from each other for so long. “Daddy, aren’t we going to our house? I want to show Zia my room.” ZG said as he peeked his head at the space between me and Gavin.“If your mom lets you then you can stay with me for as long as you want.” He said without taking his eyes off the road. The two then turned their attention to me.“What?” I asked them and the two put on their puppy dog faces.“Can we, mo
Miss Perfect and Her New Boss 125: Rekindling the Flame
My heart panicked as Gavin disappeared from my sight. He was just there, in the water, moments ago and now he was no where to be seen. The once calming effects of the sound the waterfall makes as it hit the stones and the water below it, now makes my heart pound in anxiousness.“Gavin!” I began yelling. Making my way down the water. I’m not much of a swimmer but I needed to do something. I waded slowly in the water, my eyes busy searching for the man that I was with just earlier.“Where are you? This isn’t funny anymore!” I yelled out but still, nothing. If I knew that this would happen, I would have just talked to him. “Please. Just come out. You said you wanted to talk! Come out and talk to me! I can’t lose you again.” I yelled again, but I can only hear the sound of rushing water and the rustling of leaves around me.And then it dawned on me. I need to call for help. I need to find him, so I started wading back to where our things were but before I could climb up the rocks again so
Miss Perfect and Her New Boss 126: The Little Things
I don't know how to act around him after that night. There is some sort of tension between us that I couldn't really categorize if it's a good thing or bad. We started talking casually to each other again, I even notice how he somehow takes care of me throughout the vacation. Our kids seem so happy whenever they see us together and everyone seems to always leave the two of us alone on purpose. Everyone is always doing things with other people so we had no choice but to spend some time together, and honestly, I'm not really complaining. It's kinda nice to let go of all the animosity between us, and looking at the smiles on our kids' faces, our newfound friendship? Relationship? Whatever you'd like to call what's between us now, has a positive effect on them. "You want some?" He asked, handing me a smore as all of us were huddled around the campfire. "Thanks." I said taking it from him and immediately taking a bite. What can I say? My love for chocolates will never waver. We cleane
Miss Perfect and Her New Boss 127: A Guest
Me and Gavin got the kids ready for dinner at my parents' house. Getting them ready is always chaotic, but I can say that it's easier with a little help. I never really had any help with the kids since Zia was born. I've only been with one man since Gavin, and Nathan is not really a kid person so he never really helped me with the kids. Gosh, why am I even thinking about that jerk? "You ready, love?" I heard Gavin ask as he opened the door to the bedroom. Yes, we are currently living together again, but we haven't really talked about where our relationship is after that family vacation. Gavin suggested for ZG and Zia stay with him for a few weeks and our kids convinced me to stay with them... I guess I may have wanted to stay with them too. I looked back at him and he looked worried as he scratched the back of his neck. "Sorry. I didn't mean to call you that. Force of Habit. I guess." He said to me, I just gave him a sweet smile. "It's okay. Yeah. I'm ready." I said to him. We got
Miss Perfect and Her New Boss 128: Conflict
The dinner was really a disaster. I didn't know what was worse, Nathan being such a jerk towards Gavin and ZG in front of my family or seeing Gavin almost bite his tongue off to stop himself from going into attack mode. "That was one hell of a dinner." Gavin exclaimed as soon as we got in my room. Mom insisted that we use the same bedroom while ZG and Zia stay in their room for the night since the guest room is being accommodated by Nathan. "Yeah." I said not knowing what to say to him. I turned around and looked at him, he was sitting down on the foot of the bed looking so deep in thought. "Look, Gav. I didn't know he was coming. We were done the moment I knew what he was trying to do with ZG." He looked up at me and I noticed how his demeanor began to change as soon as I said that. I stood up from the bed and slowly walked closer to me. "What did he do to ZG?" He asked me. I got back to my desk as soon as I finished taking care of the meeting room. I'm starting to feel a bit sca
Miss Perfect and Her New Boss 129: Secret Admirer? Or Stalker?
The past few weeks have been a bit weird but were peaceful somehow. Nathan had moved out of my parents' house. I honestly don't know if he went back or if he's still staying here. I haven't heard anything from him since that day and I guess it's for the best. After what happened between him and Gavin, I don't think they could spend another second in the same room without killing each other. But one thing did turn out well with Nathan's sudden arrival. I shuffled around the bed and a smile immediately crept as I laid my eyes on the beautiful specimen that was laying in the bed beside me. My fingers immediately came to his face, tracing his jaw lines as I did my best to stop myself from claiming his lips. I was taken by surprise when Gavin suddenly had me pinned on the bed as he hovered on top of me with a big grin on his face. I was bombarded with questions from my female co-workers, the moment I sat back down on my cubicle. At first, they were very discreet and hushed with their int
Miss Perfect and Her New Boss 130: On Their Knees
Being with Gavin again made me realize that I have never stopped loving him. No matter how much I wanted to forget about him, my heart remained with him throughout the years. I guess it is true, that no matter how far you walk away from each other, people who are meant to be together will always gravitate back to each other. "Mommy?" I heard Zia's voice as she was tugging on my dress. "Are you okay?" She asked me. "Why? What happened?" Gavin suddenly asked as he and ZG walked towards us. "Mommy was staring at you with a silly smile." Zia said that made my eyes bulge out of their sockets. "No, I wasn't." I said to her, looking right at her. Asking her to shut up with my eyes but it looks like I need to work on my silent communication with my daughter. "Yes. You were." She said before hopping away from us. "Just hold it in, love. Our kids are still awake." Gavin whispered to me, taking the picnic basket from my hand before following our daughter, leaving me dumbfounded. "I wasn't
Miss Perfect and Her New Boss 131: Taken
Me and Gavin became so busy with the planning of our renewal of vows. Luckily, we have our family's help together with our friends. Our kids are staying at my parents' house because they think that we could use some alone time with just the two of us and Gavin agreed without any hesitations. Today is the day that we were going to pick up the kids, so we drove to the house. No one was parked in the garage which was a bit strange but I just brushed that feeling off. "Z? Zia?" I called out but it seems like the place was empty. "Zoe." I heard Nana call back to me. She suddenly appeared from the kitchen. "Nathan took the kids out to eat." "He didn't tell me." I said, pulling out my phone to call Nathan. The number you're calling is currently unavailable. I got out of the shower and wrapped myself in a towel before heading out to the bedroom. I was so surprised when Gavin suddenly pulled me by the waist as I stepped out of the bathroom. He then gave me a kiss on the forehead and wi
