Blink ..
Blink ..And another blink .."What the fvck?" I hissed and slowly get up on the bed.I roamed my eyes at the unfamiliar room where I was. Then realization hits me. A guy was with me before I lost consciousness! I automatically scanned myself. It was as if I was drenched in cold water when my clothes changed. I'm wearing an oversized shirt, the worst is that I only wear panties.I tried looking for my long sleeve but I found none, only my bag was there. Then I feel myself. Somehow I breathed a sigh of relief without feeling anything. I'm a nurse, of course I fvcking knew if somebody just entered me. Especially and for a few years nothing get inside me.In the middle of looking around and feeling myself my eyes accidentally focused on the side table. There was a glass of water there while a red sticky note was glued. I approached it and even saw a grain of medicine. I get the note and read it in my head.Drink this when you wake up. Go to the kitchen after and eat. I'm in the next unit, you're friend is also there. Come after you ate the food.I don't know if I will be happy or annoyed with his note. It's a command! And really enumerated huh? My eyes narrowed and I was stunned to read the letter below.~ your 9inches guy ~The events of last night seemed to play back into my brain. He is!My ghosh! Why do our paths intersect?I just held my breath and did what he said. I took the med and go outside his room then walk towards the kitchen. I don't know why I'm obeying his note but I feel very relieved by the actions I take even though I still have occasional nervousness.I'm dead when I get home. Mang Ramir definitely complained about me last night.Thinking of it makes me want to puke in nervous but something inside me calms down when I'm doing what's in that guy's note.Weird.I feel like because he is more scary to get angry.Well, nine inches is really scary.Argghh! Damn you Ayesha. This is your fault. My mind became dirty because of you!I erased everything I could think of and allowed myself to be satiated with the food he left on the table.A few minutes later after my meal my nervousness returned.How can I go there?I'm wearing nothing but a shirt and my panty inside. Though it's not obvious because the hem of the shirt is long.My scars.I could do nothing but go back to the room again and get a pressed powder from my bag.‘This will do.’ I thought as I put some of it in my wrist. I returned it back in my bag when I saw my phone blinking.I held my breath as I shivered while taking that.I breathe in relief when I see Cassandra's husband's name there.I composed myself and answered the call."Can you take care of Adrian for now? Cassandra's with me." he asked.I just frowned and laughed for a moment."It's my work Mr.Villa Cruz." my simple answer."Thanks" he whispered and then ended the line.I checked my phone again, my forehead knotted as I searched all my call logs and text messages.Why is there no text from my abusive husband?As of now I should be receiving curse and threats. Not that I want it but that's what I expected since that's his nature.It is impossible that he did not know what happened last night.Instead of thinking about things that could trigger my anxiety, I just fixed myself and went to the other unit as stated in the letter.I pressed the buzzer button and waited for the one who will open the door.I bit my lower lip and counted sheeps in my head as nervousness starting to kick in my system.Daevon was the one who welcomed me in. He walked in first and I followed him until we finally reached the kitchen.I kept my distance while hiding my hand behind my back. I hesitated to look at them because they might notice that I had wear nothing under my shirt not until I stopped looking at a familiar man.My face automatically heated.I bit my lower lip again and forced myself to speak because of his serious stare."W-where's my longsleeve?" I asked. My face went pale whenever I think that he saw my scars.He carefully let out a sigh and stand before walking towards me."Let's go" he said in his baritone voice and continued walking.I looked at my friend Ayesha first and gave a parting look with a miserly smile."I'll come back later." I saidShe smiled and nodded in approval before I turned myself and followed the guy out.My eyes simply searched for Mang Ramir in the hallway but there was no sign of him before I next entered the man's unit.He walked straight to the kitchen. I remained obedient while secretly watching his actions.He looked at the table before walking towards his fridge. He took out a pitcher with water then went to the sink to get a glass and drink there.He washed the glass then put it back in its place before facing my direction. I was taken aback by the looks he gave so I looked away."I have plenty of boxers in my drawer and you still walk out wearing just your undies?" he could not believe his words, there was annoyance and sarcasm in his tone. My mouth parted.I blink twice.Is he saying I should have intruded on his privacy?He groaned and messed his hair before storming in his room.Is he crazy?Less than a few seconds later, he came out carrying two paper bags. He walked closer before handing it to me."Change" he simply said.I stared at the branded paper bags that lay in front of me."Y-you bought that?" I stammered.He looked at me lazily and put it in my hand.There was some kind of electricity flowing through my body the moment he touched my skin."Change" he repeated then walked away.I just looked behind him.Why am I feeling like this?Why am I feeling the peacefulness in my system by his presence?Normally, for now I should be thinking a lot but why am I only thinking about this guy?I just shrugged the thought and did what he asked.I am thankful that the dress he gave me has a longsleeve. In this way I can hide my scars.I left the room and found him sitting in front of me on the couch.He seriously met my gaze then simply hovered over my whole being.I can see satisfaction in his eyes after scanning me."I'm going. Thankyou for letting me stay here" I said while playing with my thumb in the back.His left eyebrow raised then he leaned back in the seat."Wouldn't you even ask what happened last night?" he said playfully.My face grew hot and I looked away.“N-Nothing happened right?" I stammered."Nothing" was his quick reply."O-okay. That's all I'm leaving. Thankyou again." I was about to start walking when he suddenly spoke."Date me" he said blankly.I stiffened and look straight at him."W-what?" I stammered in disbelief.He seemed to run out of patience so he quickly approached me and held my waist closer to him.I was so shocked by his move that I couldn't even protest especially now, his face was only a few strands away from me."I said, date me. That will be your payment for my kindness." he said and touched my face.I automatically closed my eyes as I felt warmth in his touch.Get back to yourself Azaia!I opened my eyes and pushed him weakly."Stop it. I'm already married." I said coldly.He smirked and licked his lower lip."So?" he answered.My jaw dropped by his answer."Are you playing with me Mister?" annoyed, I said.He frowned at me before pointing to himself."Do I look kidding Miss?" he fired back."Mrs" I whispered emphatically.He laughed sarcastically then a playful smirked flashed through his lips."Well, should I turn you to be my Mrs then?" he said.I shut my eyes and controlled my annoyance to burst."You're impossible" I mumbled and stormed out in his place.Good thing he didn't follow me. I manage to get out in that place and took a cab going to Cassandra's place.I was in the middle of a ride when my phone rang. I took it and just frowned because it was an unregistered number.Thinking it was one of my friends I immediately answered it."Hello?"I heard a whistle in the other line. "You sound sexy over the phone baby" a familiar voice mumbled.My eyes narrowed at the same time as my forehead frowned."Yep baby. I'm your future hubby. I just called to say take care. Muaaah!" he said again on the other line before it was ended.Ghaaaddaaamiiit! How the fvck did that retard get my number ?!And what the fvck was muah?Was that a kiss ?!"He's really fvckin insane" I whispered while shaking my head in disbelief.It’s already past six o’ clock in the evening when I got home. My heart was pounding hard while I was standing in front of the door. There were a lot of thoughts crossing my mind as I let out a deep sigh.What will he do to me? Will he kill me silently?I slowly reached for the handle of the door and upon twisting it open, silence immediately welcomed me. I roamed my eyes at every corner of the house but there were no Bjorn sight to see.I weakly dragged my feet towards the sofa of the living room and looked for my cellphone. Just as I found it inside my purse, my phone vibrated two times; a sign that someone left me a message.When I opened the screen of the device, the first thing to spring up was the name of Ayesha’s husband. I only clicked on his name and upon seeing his message, I breath out a sigh of relief.She’s fine. She’ll get discharged tomorrow.It felt like a bone stuck to my throat was pulled out. I was shock, scared and nervous when I found out my friend was immediately
When I finally decided to open the door and come inside, I found him at the living room, sitting on the sofa. He was watching something from the television up until he noticed my presence and turned to look at me with the same cold eyes.“Faster, bitch. Don’t act like some VIP,” he coldly said.My eyes blinked in disbelief. That’s it? There were no slapping nor kicks or punches? How come?Instead of acting like some frozen chunks in front of him, I walked up towards my room and did what he wants. I chose a simple black off-shouldered long sleeve dress from my closet and stared at how it looked like. It was a little over my knees yet it fitted me nicely. I just needed to look presentable from the whole gathering so I didn’t need to put a lot of effort into it. Applying a small amount of powder and lipstick, I quickly went my way downstairs in fear that he may run out of patience.After ten minutes of preparation, when he saw me from the last step of the staircase, he stood up from his
I woke up at noon the next day. I was in such a hurry when Andrei called me to pick up the child and his mother -in -law because my friend Cassandra was shot. My mind was unstable while driving. I could not believe that consecutive incidents have happened to my friends. I could not help but be afraid to think that I was next. I just held my breath and forced myself to calm down. This is really the hard part in my mind, I can’t help but control to exacerbate the scenarios in my brain.Chill, Azaia. Bjorn doesn't have an ex who is supposed to take a revenge on you.When I have finally reached the place, I quickly took Adrian and auntie to Ayesha's house to rest there for a while. After that, Ayesha and I went to the hospital to check on Cassandra's condition. Somehow I was able to breathe easily when I found out that she was not in critical condition. Yet my concern was still there because she was still unconscious until we left the hospital.I was already in a taxi and on my way home w
After saving some energy we visited Cassandra again. Wearing my long sleeve top and below the knee skirt I went to the hospital. We were relieved that Cassandra was already talking and joking with us.We talked about the events we had when we were in America. How unbeknownst to her that his husband was watching over them all along.We shared some jokes and mocks then decided to leave after some time. I was a little bit surprised because the guys' one friend wasn't there. I just shrugged that thought.Why am I looking for that mad man?I hailed a taxi and drove home. Like the usual, I met my husband and ex best friend's moans when I entered the house.Seriously aren’t they tired?Instead of focusing on what they were doing, I just prepared my food. I was currently eating when Safey came down the stairs. Smirk plastered on her face as she tied her robe. It was obviously conveyed to me that my husband and her had just finished.Tsk! I don't care anymore. It would be better for Bjorn to f
I woke up to the familiar smell of the surroundings. Even though I didn't open my eyes, I knew I was in the hospital because it was the place where I used to work.I slowly opened my eyes and then looked around. My lips parted as I caught sight of a man sitting in front of me, on the side of my bed. He's leanning on his seat and crosses its arms.How is he able to take a nap in such a position?I tried to wake up, but I was overwhelmed by the pain in my body. I regretted the move I made because the man next to me woke up."Hey, " he whispered, then stood up and helped me get up.He propped me up on the headboard of the bed and put a pillow behind me.He quickly took a water from the side of the table and then opened it before handing it to me."Thank you, " I said sparingly in a dry voice.He didn't say a word and just watched me drink. I looked away because little by little I was consumed with shame."You wanna eat something?" he asked. I could feel the concern in his tone.I looked
It's been three days since I got back. I also felt quite well and gradually the burdens I had received from the beating faded away.For three days I did not show up to my friends. I just let them know that I had a flu.I stayed confined to my room and only came out when I felt like there was no one else besides me.Somehow it also helped that Bjorn or Safey hadn’t bothered me these past few days which surprised me. I want to laugh even more when I think that Bjorn feels guilty for what he did to me.phone beepsMy meditation stopped when my phone rang. I slowly got up from lying down and picked it up on the side of my desk before reading the incoming message.XenoahHow are you? Why are you not texting back? Are you avoiding me?I sparingly smiled at his message before closing the thread of his texts and laying my cell phone back on the table.Ever since I came back, he has purely texted me and none of it I have replied. My life is too chaotic if I involve him too.I don't know how de
"Have you gone mad?" I spoke angrily to him.He nodded and took his cat from me."I should do something with that dirty mouth of your," he stated.I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms. I forcefully averted my eyes from her naked body."That should really be cleaned..." he whispered while stroking his kitten."Meow," the cat seemed to agree with what he said."Who doesn't get their mouths dirty when you're the one in front of them? I'm a nurse for pregnant women, Xenoah. Taking care of children is really an exception because I can do that. But this, the eff! I.AM.NOT.A.FVCKIN.VETERINARIAN!" I emphasized."But she's a baby! Our baby!" he quickly fired back that made my jaw dropped."Tell me, does your brain is not functioning well?" I'm pissed at this question."Damn it! I also don't know why I'm doing this shit. Can't you just take care of her? It's easier to take care of her than a child, right? Besides you'll benefit for this," he stated.I just closed my eyes tightly and tried to ca
Who would have thought that a nurse like me would be caring a kitten?I lazily leaned myself on the sofa while watching a television show. Serefina was on the top of my thigh and sleeping soundly.I just smiled and gently stroked her."Baby, let's eat!" Xenoah yelled in the kitchen.It's already lunch time.Automatically, I rolled my eyes. It's been a week since I accepted his job offer and it's been a week since I saw his face from morning to afternoon.It's also surprising that Manong Ramir seems to have been lost for a week following me. Well, I think my luck has been starting.I carefully removed and laid the kitten on the sofa before I got up and headed to the kitchen.True to his words, he serves me instead of me serving him. He cooks the food and often cleans the house whenever I come in the morning.He greeted me with a smile and pushed me into a chair before heading to his seat.I glared at him before sitting down on the chair he was swinging.Acting like a gentleman."You do
