“Amy, it’s just a fake engagement, we can still break––”
“Shut up! Before I agreed to become your fake fiancée with no engagement, it was still fine as even if we break up, it’ll be easy for my parents to accept but now, this, this is practically a knife that will be stabbing right at their heart. When we will get engaged, your parents and mine will meet, new relations will bloom and what then? Tell them that sorry we can’t be together anymore, let’s break it off! Are you crazy?!” I felt like this was something I wanted to shout for a while. Sophia relied on me and teased me about things that I can never do because of the guy in front of me.
“Your sister trusted me to make you happy, they were all happy and I was cheating them… cheating them! Are you even listening, Mr. Alexeev?” Alexander held my hand as I shouted at him.
“I know but I really––”
“Why are you so hell bent on hurting them? Why?” Alexander looked at me and pulled me close to him and finally broke anything that was becoming warm, was forming a softness for him.
“Can you pay a million to me? You can’t. So, do what I tell you to, be a good girl and sign, now!” he shouted, and I shook my head as he held my face and said “Do it, Amelia Carter. You never had an option, it’s all on me.”
“Think about this again, Alex. Please.” I said but Alexander kept looking at me and said, “You don’t have any money, do you?”
I signed the papers, and he took them away and sat right next to me and held my shoulder as he said “We both need this right now. You need the money, and I need space. Amy, I am sorry but let me tell you, it’s all on me, every hurt is mine here. I’ll make sure to make your life go back to what it was if we ever break up. I promise you.” What ‘ever breakup’? Let us be in a relationship before at least.
“I really don’t want to hurt Sophia or Victoria, they were so nice to me. They have been so nice and I––” he shook his head and said “You are thinking too much, we won’t hurt anyone. Our breakup won’t affect anyone at all.”
“Okay?” he looked at me and I nodded my head.
Finally, after the whole sequence we both saw how we were holding each other, and I moved away from him while he suddenly pulled me towards him to kiss my forehead and wipe my tears like a good fiancé.
“We are going to take care of each other, got it.” Alexander said and then said, “Mom’s here.”
“Amelia, what happened to you?” she said as soon as she saw my face and Alexander let me go as she pulled me into her embrace.
It was warm and sweet.
She touched my head and said “Alex said something to you? Don’t listen to this idiot, he is just not worth feeling sad over.”
“It’s not me, she got emotional thinking what if the engagement didn’t work out well and she ends up hurting you and the family. Talk to her, mom. Tell her what she is thinking is stupid, even if we don’t work out well, then also we will never hurt our families, no?” the innocence on his face could make any woman swoon and his mother believed anything and everything he said.
“Of course, we will disown him but never you, my dear. Amelia, feelings are the variables that keeps your relation going, but that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t try to get into one just because of the variables. Whether the relation kept going is never the matter but whether you lived happily through it. And I think Amelia knows how to live her life with the pretty smile she always had going on, no?” I nodded at her while she gave me a side hug and then Alexander came by my side and kissed my forehead again.
“I understand.” I said and she smiled.
“Are you forgetting something to say to me?” Alexander said and smiled at me.
The sarcasm in his voice could be heard from miles away.
“What?” I said and he tightened the arm around my shoulder to make me lean towards him.
“Forget it.” He said and let my shoulders go but held me close again to kiss my head.
“What are doing, kissing my head again and again?” I said as I finally moved away from him.
“I kind of like this look on you.” Alexander said as he stood behind me and I looked at him turning my head.
“What look?” I said as I tried to correct the desk which was already nicely stacked with things in ordered manner.
“This nice, blushing and red face that shows how much you are trying to not make me realize what you are feeling.” I stopped dead when the door opened again and his sister, Sophia entered with a cranky face, and she made a face far crankier as she looked at who entered behind her.
“Alexander, what the hell did you do to make him divorce me?!”
And well, he never knew nothing, his acting even made my heart race today.
And well, he never knew nothing, his acting even made my heart race today.
Fucking actor with a very fuckable face and by God, the day I hit his nice face isn't very far.
"Well, what's happening here now?" I said and the ex-girlfriend glared at me so hard, a lesser woman might have fallen into hell but damn, I don't care anymore.
Nik looked at his father working on a file and opened his own toy laptop that he got after a lot of begging from his mother. His mother is a nice woman but surely, a strict mom. She loves watching all kinds of drama and she believes that help only when you can, otherwise just sit on the sidelines with a snack to watch. Even Nona believes so. Nona definitely taught Mom well. She is exactly like her. “Hey dad, what do we do now?” Nik asked as he tried to copy his father as he worked on files and other things. Today, he was in his dad’s office as his dear mother had to go for some promotions of her books and also, his little sister went to attend her play school while he, who had his holidays because of exams was left here to work with his father. “You can go and ask Sib to give you games.” Dad said with his eyes still on the screen causing Nik to almost say ‘how rude’ but he stopped because he didn’t want to get smacked again for talking nonsense. Though, Nik felt that those smac
"Dad, you think it's good?" My seven-year-old son asked as he checked the gift I bought for his mom and my wife."Dad, why do I feel you are cheating on mom?" Nik asked as he touched the necklace and I looked at him incredulously."What are you speaking about?" I don't understand how exactly he reached that conclusion."Well, me and mom were watching this nice drama and–""You and your mom? She let you watch with her?" The woman who is usually shouting all the time about not letting these kids watch drama because they ask questions that are way mind-blowing than anything, let him watch with her..."She didn't let me, I watched myself. These are my eyes, dad." This little twit actually rolled his eyes at me as I kept looking at him and suddenly, he flexed himself and said, "I know I am handsome, no need to stare."I am sure my smiling lips suddenly twitched when I calmed down and said, "You were telling me about why you think I am cheating.""Oh yes, you interrupted me." He said and I
"Mom!!!!" A loud cry sounded as I let go of the spatula and it felt with a loud clatter, and I hurriedly moved away as I looked behind me to see my daughter of four running towards me with the very expression as if her world has shattered."Pia, what–" little Pia ran to me as her hands wrapped around me and I smiled as her hands wrapped around me knowing whatever she was going to say is going to make me laugh without limit."I think–" her sobs hardened as she reached the part and I wondered what happened to make her cry so much."Baby, calm down, shush now, no more crying." I said as I kept petting her arms and kissed the side of her head and switched of stove leaving the kitchen with her in my arms."Mom, dad–" okay, what did that man do to make her cry like that with no end?"What did he do? Did he shout because you touched his folders and draw on them?" I asked her as I kissed her forehead while wiping her face and cuddling her on the sofa.She shook her head as she denied every sp
“I think I’m pregnant.” Amelia said as she looked right at the line that proved she was pregnant, and I stilled.“You were on birth control, weren’t you?” I whispered though I was trying to talk.It’s been six months since I married this beautiful woman but all I can feel right now is confused with what is happening right now after I heard what she was talking about.“I am on birth control but this,” she stopped to look at me and came to me to hug after she washed her hands and threw the sticks she used to confirm. “It could be a fake alarm too, you know.”“Right, it’s fake. I don’t want a baby right now and you know it. You want to further your career and I will be leaving for Switzerland in a few days and will only come back after a month or so, we can’t care for a baby right now. We will not take a chance with this. You understand me, right?” whatever I was speaking were the exact thoughts that are clashing in my head but the fear that we will be killing a life was also there.“I k
I looked down the aisle as we rehearsed the last time before I was really going to be here all dressed in perfection and will be given to the very guy who was standing in front of me.It really isn’t going to be perfect because of how his cousins and my best friend had a lot of things to do in this function yet all of it, in its chaos and imperfection was just so… so perfect.“Nervous again?” I said looking at the guy who was unknowingly moving his legs with nervousness poring out of his every move.“I’ll be nervous until I really have you in my arms.” Surely, even his nervousness couldn’t make his flirtiness go away.“Aww!” our cute and blessed supporter, Miss Sophia Alexeev came with her hands on her cheeks doing her own aww moment…Why? Why can’t we just practice this by ourselves than be here in a fanfare?“Are you done?” Alexander asked Sophia who finally put her hands down and said “No!”Her hands again cupped her face and she blinked her originally big eyes while making a moment
It was interesting how I wanted to fall in love and marry with my first boyfriend, and none of it had anything to do with my first boyfriend.I just wanted a love story worth sharing and something that was simply perfect…I didn’t realize that anything could be perfect and even my clumsiness can’t destroy it. All it took was a uh- few months that I fell in love, and that’s too with a guy who made me sign a contract (fine, I did break a vase but still!) and that guy is the guy who was practicing the dance with me now.Our very own wedding dance.Oh, I wish I break a leg or at least hurt it enough to not dance at all.Who would like to fall face-flat in their own wedding that was being considered a flash wedding in the media?I looked at my very dear boyfriend and fiancé who was enjoying himself and resigned myself to the fate of falling in my own wedding.Move left, twirl, a step right, then hand in his, a fall…And this continued till I was weak in the knees while the boy who had more
