I couldn’t believe it when Luke suddenly spoke.
I was shocked to see Liza's face as her mouth opened and the fly almost entered her mouth. Oh my God!
I came slightly closer to my husband who was still holding Liza's arm until now, I pulled Luke’s clothes and whispered slightly.
"Are you out of your mind ?!" I was annoyed and my question had an emphasis on my every word before Luke let go of Liza's arm.
"I don't want to know or even see you go near with my wife. Do you understand Ms. Caponpon?" Her husband said authoritatively while Liza obviously shook her hand and nodded quickly.
"Let's go, Luke," I call his attention.
He just looked at me once before turning his gaze back to Liza, I almost laughed when looking at Liza with his fierce. I mean Luke was the one who was mad at Liza, seriously!
Is my husband is gay?
Luke's many done for today, earlier he called my last name as Mrs. Copley then now, he faced the one who admired him.
"Why did you say that?" I asked confusedly as we held hands walking out of the gate.
There aren't as many people here at school so I didn't even against when he held my right hand.
"Which one?" Dead maliciously he asked me as his eyes focused on our way.
" That I'm your wife." I frowned at that answer. "Aren't you afraid of losing your job, huh ?!" I was even more annoyed.
"No." Simple and plain he said so I was blown away.
I stopped talking and walked with Luke until we reached where his car was parked.
I quickly got in the car and adjusted the seat belt. Luke didn't move and say anything until we got home.
"Love." I heard him call me.
I didn't look back immediately. "My love," he calls me again.
I just closed my eyes tightly before slowly facing my husband's place.
"What?" Irritation was visible on my face.
"What dish do you want?" I blinked a few times because of his question. I didn't say anything right away, I don't know but I feel like it laughing at his question! Annoying.
I'm just disgusted that I don't know.
"Whatever." I didn't feel like answering but he nodded at me.
I couldn’t help but grin after I turned around and go upstairs. But what happened earlier inevitably came to my mind. I'm sure tomorrow we'll be full of Luke's gossip.
It's Saturday tomorrow, yeah. We're still gossiping on Monday and I'm sure in less than twenty -four hours the news will spread accordingly.
Maybe I'll just talk to Luke later to take back what he said, I'm the one who's worried about his job because I know that he loves to teach. I also know what he went through to be able to teach at least, but at least he is a Copley so nothing is impossible when he wants something automatic he will have it right away.
I was already cleaning my body and wearing a simple dress before deciding to go down.
I went through the living room to peek at Anna's pendant. I just wonder why she didn’t even come to school for a week.
"Where is that?" I asked myself without seeing the red happy face anywhere here in the living room.
I decided to go to Luke in the kitchen to ask Luke but even before I got to the kitchen I could smell Luke's delicious cooking.
“You can eat now." He said, I didn't say a word and just sat quietly in front of the table.
"Are you mad at me?" He asked me calmly and softly.
I'm just pretending promise.
"Did you see Anna's red happy face pendant?" I couldn’t help but question him and I see that Luke was stunned.
"No." He gave me a short answer. Liar!
"Do you know why Anna didn't go to school for one week? She hasn't told you why she will be absent?" I ask again.
Luke took a deep breath before lowering the cutlery he was holding.
“Can you take back what you said to Liza? Tomorrow? ” I saw Luke's grip tighten.
He was as slow as answering.
"No." He answered me so I lowered the cutlery I was holding.
“Your job depends on it, I know how hard you work to teach but don't ignore it. I can handle myself, my love. I'm going to graduate with a little patience, can't you wait? ” I said at length and I saw the softening of his expression.
"She almost hurt you earlier, Elle," he answered me and I just shook my head at what he said.
"It's okay but please don't let your work be affected."
"Don't you want them to know?" He asked me a sad question so I was stunned. It was as if something struck my heart as I stared into my husband’s eyes.
"N-not like that," I answered and suddenly be forced to get up from his seat and left me in the kitchen.
Why can't he understand me even now?
Is it wrong for me to think about his job and companionship? I just don't want to get into trouble because of the people who like him. I just don't want him to be the subject of gossip somewhere.
I also want everyone to know but I can't.
I also lost my appetite, I scooped up what I had eaten and immediately washed it. The dish on the table that I immediately put in the refrigerator when the heat disappeared then.
I caught Luke lying on the bed as he stared at the ceiling. He seemed to be thinking deeply so I slowly went to bed and lay backward from his seat.
"Elle." The tiredness was obvious in his voice when he called me. "I was just teaching because of you." He said next and I immediately faced his position because of what I heard.
I frowned at him.
"What do you mean?" I'm confused by that question.
“So I became a teacher because of you. I want to be with you every day or see and observe you even from afar. ” I can't believe what he said.
"W-Why?" I stuttered that question and couldn’t explain the nervousness I felt.
"That's how much I love you." I couldn't speak right away and just stared at his now gentle face, until I could just feel his light kiss which I immediately followed until it became aggressive.
We almost gasped for breath when our lips parted. I just laughed and lay down on the bed beside him while placing one of my thighs on his leg.
"Are you ready for tomorrow?" I lost the smile on my lips because of his question.
"Do we have to go?" I asked and inevitably nervous again, daring him to refuse as well.
"Yes. Face them." He spoke so I gasped. No, we will meet again.
Since Luke and I got married, I decided to remove all contact with them, when Luke and I got married, our parents found out that someone was interfering with us. There is no problem with Luke's daddy but with my daddy, he can't even accept Luke even me as his daughter.
Even my father is my enemy just like his mistress, Trisha. I hate daddy so much, he hasn't even shown that he loves me since mommy died. What's even more painful is that daddy didn't even visit mommy's grave. He also did not know what caused the accident.
Trisha's first child was Shashalyn her first husband, and Trisha's second husband was Trina and now she's pregnant with dad again, that's where all his attention was focused on one and I didn't even remember of my own.
"I love you, my love. Goodnight." I said and closed my eyes, I waited for Luke to speak or answered me but I heard nothing from him until I was completely swallowed by drowsiness.
I woke up EARLY and realized that Luke was no longer beside me so I immediately looked at him but he was gone.
"Where he is?" I asked myself in surprise and glanced at the clock. It's only six in the morning but he's gone right away. I just shrugged and did the morning routine.
Because today is Saturday and today is also the day when Luke and I go to daddy’s house, it would be better for me to prepare what to wear but also after that when I finished cooking.
I just cooked a hotdog, egg, bacon, and coffee for Luke. I heard footsteps from the living room so I immediately ran over there.
"Hey," Luke said when he saw me.
"Where did you go?"I asked and but he just smiled at me.
"Take a look," he answered me and was still wearing a light smile before pointing to the large box in the middle of the table here in the living room.
"What's your trick here?" I asked with a raised eyebrow but he also raised an eyebrow at me.
I immediately sat down in a nearby chair and gently opened it accordingly.
I was almost shocked by what I saw. The whole dress is red and a whirl glitters.
"It looks like I'll have a birthday there later, dear.?" I asked.
"Of course, you must be the most beautiful than them." Her husband replied so inevitably with a faint beautiful smile on her lips.
"You're just playing with me, love," I said and looked at the contents of the box.
"4 inches?" I asked again.
"Shall I add more?" Her husband asked her a question so she immediately shook his head.
"It's okay," I answered. "Let's eat, I'm hungry," I said again.
Until they reach their table, they will only be caught and laughed at. She feels nothing more than anything she has now because her husband is loving.
I didn’t make the mistake of marrying Luke because he never let me down and he never looked or looked at anyone else.
"Someone will come here to do your makeup later." I turned to Luke as he spoke.
"I can fix myself," I answered and looked back at the TV while chewing some snacks.
"I didn't say you can't fix yourself." He was philosophizing with me. So I was just left with nothing.
"Whatever," I answered and I just felt his massive arms wrap around my waist which I immediately gasp.
"You smell good," he whispered in my ear and licked it. My body hair raised immediately that’s why I moved away from him.
"Stop it, so hot here," I growled at him.
"Even if our hoes are air-conditioned?" He can answer me even when I have nothing to do with this man. Can't even get through once in a lifetime?
Until two o'clock in the afternoon, Luke was right when he said that someone was coming to the house. It suddenly disappeared like a bubble and he suddenly text me that he would send a driver to pick me up later. Isn't it, my husband's social? There is a rumor that he will go there at the same time and will not leave my side then now what?
I was even scolded a bit when the people who were supposed to fix me up supposedly also started to make me up. I'm almost dumbfounded in the mirror because of what I see, I don't think so if this is me?
I'm sure that those people will be annoyed again if they uttered some words without any consent. I just shook my head at the thought, I will just trust Luke that he will not leave me and he will not leave my side.
"Ma'am it's okay, the driver is waiting for you outside." Politely said when doing make-up on me and smiled.
"Isn't it too pretentious for you to fix me, miss?" I asked in astonishment and couldn’t help but wince. Because I feel like I'm the one who can grab more attention where we're going.
"It's okay ma'am." She answered so I didn't do anything and decided to go out.
The driver took me to where Luke and I would meet, I don't know with that man why there are so many things he knows! Lots more detours. But my blood almost boil an hour that Luke was still anywhere to find, I tried to call him but no one answered. I got out of the car and looked around. Even maybe the driver is bored waiting.
I just left a message to Luke, that I would be ahead of the party. It's also a pity that I was dressed up if I couldn't attend. Though nervous I still dared to go alone.
The decoration is grand, they have prepared it. I just shook my head remembering that I had never experienced anything like this because my dad put Trisha first.
"Hija." I faked a smile when Trisha noticed me and kissed me, Shashalyn followed with obvious disgust in her eyes as she hugged me. I was greeted by a light smile from Trina, it's good that Trina is kind and she never fought me at all.
"Luke?" I called the man not far from my seat talking to the beautiful woman with a gentle face and beautiful smile.
He looked surprised at my presence. I took a deep breath and calmed myself first. Luke turned to me and I immediately heard Shashalyn speak.
"Your husband was here earlier to have a drink with my friend." I turned my gaze to Shashalyn and raised an eyebrow.
"I don't have to listen to you." There is no life I said.
"Elle!" Trisha called me and I turned to her. He quickly approached me and held my arm firmly knowing whether to leave a mark there. "You’re really rude ?!" Weakly and emphatically she told me just enough for us to hear.
I waved my arm and she looked at me badly. “You made me like this Trisha, I told you before not to destroy my family but you continued, you still interfered. So don't be surprised why I'm like this to you. ” I said and looked at her from head to toe, as did her children and I left in front of them before walking towards Luke who was now frowning.
"If you just said you wanted to come here alone, I'll let you." I can bear to tell Luke when I can get closer to his place.
He didn't say a word but he just stared at me as if there was dirt all over my face so it was obvious in his eyes that he couldn't believe it?
"I'm leaving," I said and turned around but I was shocked when he carried and immediately pulled me to where he intended to take me.
"You're not supposed to be here." He answered me and I could feel his heavy breathing. I put aside what I felt was different from him and just pulled away.
I don’t know which room Luke took me to. We entered the dark room and almost no light or not a single light entered the entire room."I'm scared!" I was scared to say and hugged Luke, I just felt his warm hand caressing my bare back, and quickly grabbed me with a kiss. There was something else in Luke's kiss that I can't figure out what it was but I was still quick to reciprocate the kiss.I couldn't immediately think and just drifted away with every kiss that Luke gave me, we even overcame the thirsty babies eager for a mother's milk as the two of us continued to kiss. Menthol? Luke's mouth tasted of menthol knowing that he wasn't eating or tasting candy accordingly.When I felt him caress my leg I forcibly pushed him away from me.I shook my head because of the feeling that something was wrong with what was happening."Let's go home." Husky, he whispered to were just enough for me to hear what he said.I came out of the room in surprise as Luke followed behind me. We stopped when we
"Sis, Elle."I was distracted by a low voice I heard and called my name, I simply smiled as she quickly approached my seat and quickly hugged me wearing concern in her eyes. "Are you all right?" She asked me before slipping into our embrace. “What is on your forehead? Did brother Luke do it? ” Trina asked without hesitation so I was a little amused."We haven't been able to talk properly yet, but it's far from the gut." I smiled and could hear her breathing deeply.Trina's simple smile disappeared and she led me into her boarding house. Luke also missed calls to me but I turned off my phone first so that I could think clearly."He didn't even listen to you?" Trina asked me a kind question as she approached my seat with some food."No," I answered weakly before standing up and helping Trina with her carry."The behavior of those two women is really bad." I could almost swallow the water I was drinking because of what Trina said addressing her mother and sister Shashalyn, even when thi
Luke and I got along well in the days that followed, no Trisha and Shashalyn showed up or appeared anywhere we were and of course, Liza didn't even try to approach me. Kevina, on the other hand, is avoiding me a bit and I can't do anything to restore our friendship, because being friends has been forgotten because of a sin that she shouldn't have committed.Luke also lost his job because what happened reached the Principal's Office and we were both married. But according to Luke, there is nothing and when daddy Luis' company is just tuned in, my head hurts because he almost makes our school hang out. After all, every break time he will just show up somewhere to accompany me.But my biggest problem of all was Harold, he even beat the cat that always followed the rat, but I was also impressed because when Luke was here, he couldn't get close to me.Kevina once asked me about Harold but I answered her correctly, and I also told Kevina what I noticed about Harold."Elle," Kevina called me
I got to school well and quickly. Test here and there we did in each subject, so I was bored. A smile flashed on my lips because every minute or hour Luke had a message for me.It's just that he needs to teleport to my side so I can't avoid the thrill and at the same time I miss him too."Hi." I was so bitten on my lip when I heard a familiar voice that I didn’t want to hear at these moment."H-hello." I greet Harold who is now wearing a wide smile on his lips as he stares at me."Let's eat together, Elle." He said more and I just gave a fake smile.I was nervous again in his presence as if he could see every corner or part of my body."W-what?" I stuttered that question. I don’t know what a good reason to get away from this guy.“W-what? Are you with your husband again? ” I could hear the angry tone in his voice. "Can you come with me first?" He added.“Hey, Harold. We're with Elle, don't scratch her. ” I breathed a sigh of relief when Kevina suddenly came. "You can go with Elle late
“There is Polycystic ovary syndrome in your wife Mr. Copley, in other words, she has PCOS and it's sad to say. She's not pregnant."“There is Polycystic ovary syndrome in your wife Mr. Copley, in other words, she has PCOS and it's sad to say. She's not pregnant."What the doctor told us earlier reflected over and over again in my brain. I was disappointed to hear that and Luke still hasn't spoken to me since earlier."Are you all right, sis?" Kevina hugs me."He's not talking to me, Kevina," I answered with a frown while looking at Luke who was eating alone on one side of the canteen. He can't even look at me for even a second so I'm already disgusted with him. Maybe he was also disappointed by what happened but why does it still feel like my fault if I have PCOS. Instead of just being there for me, why now does he seem so far away from me?"That's just a fight between husband and wife." He mocked me so I mocked him back."Because he hoped immediately," I said and I felt Kevina sittin
I wasn't myself when I was in Harold's car. I chose not to attend Luke's class and I decided that he would just take me home."You can go back to school to take some subjects left today," I told Harold in gentle words."Don't you want me to go with you first?" He asked me and I shook my head slightly."No, I want to be alone first and if he ever asks you where I am, just say you don't know," I answered him. Harold nodded to me in response so I gave him a light smile.I thanked Harold before he got into his car and left.When I entered the house, silence greeted me. My abundant tears started to flow, I didn't think that Luke could do that to me, he betrayed me. I never thought that one of my friends would be my husband's mistress. But is Anna supposed to be called mistress?I was dumbfounded as I made my way to our room. My hands are shaking while washing my face at the same time as my lips are shaking from sobbing.I let out a sad smile while looking at the frame placed on the side ta
"My love," I called Luke with a smile.I also noticed that Luke was stunned by Anna's presence. Luke slowly approached and walked to my place. He gave me a small smile before sitting down next to me."Are you okay now?" He asked me and he gave me a light kiss on my head. Even if I wanted to laugh because of Anna's face that couldn't be painted and the hatred there was obvious, I couldn't."Yes, I'm okay," I answered weakly. "Did the man who stabbed me get caught?" My next question. Luke sat up before stroking my hair.“He escaped. I'm sorry but don't worry, I will do everything to catch whoever is planning what happened to you, love." My husband answered me.He said those words without looking directly into my eyes."Is that so?" I said and Luke nodded."I think there’s CCTV in your village, right?" Luke and I both turned to Anna when she spoke."When the incidents happened, that time is erased to CCTV," Luke answered while looking at Anna.They can apply as actors because they can ac
One week had passed and now I fully recovered. I can move well even without the help of Nanny Josefa and Luke. From time to time, the wound I got still hurts, but I can handle enough. Luke is so sweet these past days, he teaches at school every day and I can't help but think about the past day that I didn't go to school especially since Anna was around. What exactly should I be worried about? 'If my husband truly loves me, will he and Anna continue what they are doing? Betraying me?' I shook my head, thinking about it made my head hurt so I lightly massaged it. 'They will, if ever they continue what they are doing he doesn't love you Elle' My mind said so I stood up from sitting to remove what was constantly disturbing my mind. I put on my bag before deciding to walk. "Best friend." I heard Kevina's voice so I turned to where it came from. "Kevina," I said. We're walking across the pathway and making our way to our room. Luke came in earlier and I was late on purpose, I just di
