JAYSON"Nana!" I grinned and threw myself at her as soon as she opened the door. Luckily, Dustin was still holding me, or we were already rolling on the floor. I laughed at what I thought and placed one arm around her shoulder."You're drunk.""Just a bit," I said, smiling."A bit, my ass. You've been drinking since two in the afternoon. What's wrong with you, man? If Loren is the reason, she doesn't worth it. You're ruining your life, Jayson." Dustin scolded me."Who said that bitch is the reason? I don't care if she burns into hell. I don't care if she f*ck another man. I don't care if she dies. I don't care. I hate that woman; I hate her so much. I want to kill her." I screamed as they helped me up in my room. Dustin pushed me onto my bed, sighing."You can go now, Dustin. I'll take care of him. Thank you for bringing him home." I heard Nana say."Thank you!!!! I screamed, laughing.
JAYSON.I smiled when I opened my eyes to find Mara sleeping beside me. She was leaning her head on my chest with my arm wrapped around her waist "How she ended sleeping beside me? I feel my forehead. I am still a bit warm and weak but much better than earlier. I guess it's passed past lunch already, and I'm starving because I only drank the soup earlier. I haven't eaten since last night."Mara!! I softly shook her. I'm sure she hasn't eaten her lunch as well. "Mara!! Her eyes snapped open, and she quickly sat up."What happened? Do you feel uncomfortable? Are you in pain?" How do you feel?""A bit better. I'm starving." I weakly whispered. "Wait, I ask someone to bring food here." She stood up and went to the intercom, and asked for our food before she settled back on the edge of my bed. She feels my forehead, my face, and my neck."You still have a fever." She said and went into the bathroom. When she returned, she was carrying a small basin and a face towel. She put it on my bed
MARAI didn't know that I went back to sleep as well, and once I opened my eyes, it was already dark outside. I looked beside me, but the bed was empty. Where did that brat go? He still needs to rest. I stood up from the bed and went to the door but heard running water in the bathroom. That guy, why did he take a bath? He's still not well.I marched to the bathroom and pounded the door. "Jayson!! Why did you take a bath? You still not well." I shouted while pounding on the door.It opened after a few minutes, and he stood before me with a towel wrapped around his waist. "What do you think you are doing?" I snarled."I take a bath because I feel sticky." He said casually and walked passed me and went to his closet."When you get sick again, don't cling to me like a Koala," I said and left his room. I went downstairs straight to the kitchen. I'm hungry, and I want food."Mara, come eat your dinner. How's Sir Jayson?""That guy took a bath," I replied, annoyed by Jayson's stupidity."Wh
MARAThe following morning, I quickly bathed and fixed my room. After that, I went to Grandpa's room. It was only six in the morning, and I'm sure Irene was still sleeping. I slowly turn the knob making sure not to make any sound to wake her up, but I quickly cover my lips with my palm when I see Jayson inside, sleeping beside Grandpa. I looked for Irene, but she wasn't there. Where did she sleep last night? I slowly walked inside and stood at the side of the bed. It pains me inside to see the tears on the side of Jayson's face. I'm sure he cried to sleep.I touch his forehead to check if his fever doesn't return, and I'm relieved that his temperature is normal.I looked and Grandpa and brushed my fingers on his hair, and then planted a kiss on his forehead."Grandpa, when are you going to wake up? Please wake up soon. Jayson needs you. You don't need to be scared now because Loren is not here anymore. No one will hurt you anymore, Grandpa, so please wake up soon. I missed you so mu
MARAWhen Jayson left for work, I went up to Grandpa's room. I smiled when I saw Irene checking his vitals. "Good morning, Irene. How's Grandpa? Where did you sleep last night? I found Jayson sleeping here earlier.""Good morning, Mara. Sir Phils, all vitals are normal. He is away from danger now. The only thing that he needs to do is to open his eyes. And about where I sleep last night. Mr. Fernandez came here last night and told me to sleep in one of the guest rooms and Sir Phil's room if he wasn't around.""Okay, you go downstairs and eat your breakfast. I'll watch Grandpa while you eat.""Okay, thank you. I'll be quick.""No, take your time. I have nothing to do anyway.""Okay, I'll return as soon as I finish eating." I nodded my head, and she quickly left the room. I went to my room and took my manicure set, and went back to Grandpa's room.I pulled a chair beside his bed and settled do
MARA"We are at home." He smiled when I glared at him. He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and kissed my forehead and then my nose."Can I kiss you here?" He asked, running his thumb on my lower lips. "You said... but he brushed her lips on me, and it quickly shut me up. He brushed his lips on me again, maybe waiting for me to pull away, but how could I when one of his arms was on my shoulder, preventing me from moving? He was a centimeter away from me, holding my stare and slowly bridging the gap between us again, and this time his lips lingered on mine. He didn't move. His lips stay still for a few seconds. My eyes suddenly close when his lips nibble on my upper lips, then to the lower, "Jayson" He grabbed that chance and slipped his tongue inside my mouth when I parted my lips to speak, And it felt like I saw fireworks behind my closed eyelid. I had never felt this way when Jared kissed me before. The feeling is overwhelming. My h
MARA"Sorry." He whispered after a few minutes of uncomfortable silence passed between us. He kissed my head before he rolled down beside me and pulled me into his embrace. I buried my heated face in his chest, don't want to look at him. "Hmm!!! I clutched his top when he tried to distance himself away from me. I don't want him to see my blushing face. I'm so embarrassed because of what happened. With a kiss from him, I quickly have forgotten everything, only the feel of his kiss on my lips."I think you need to close your top." He whispered. I think all my blood went up on my face. I quickly rolled away from him and hurriedly closed my top.After that, I stayed on my side of the bed, not moving like a statue with my face buried in my pillow, but I stiffened when his arm wrapped around my waist, and I suddenly felt his body pressed on my back, and he buried his face in my neck."Jayson!! I wiggled from his hold, but he pulled me closer and kissed my neck, up to my ear. "Yah!! You sai
MARAJayson's car stopped in front of the Fernandez Corporation building, and Bobby stopped behind his car. The guard quickly opened the car, greeting him.I waited for him to enter the building before I thanked Bobby and exited the car. I went inside and went straight to the reception area. I gave a side glance to Jayson when I noticed that he was still in the lobby talking to someone. I ignored him and went to the receptionist."Good morning, Miss. I'm Mara Park, and Mr. Revira is expecting me." "Good morning, Ma'am. I'll escort you to Mr. Revira's office." She stood up from her seat smiling at me. I'm thankful that she seemed kind and friendly."This way, ma'am." I followed behind her, and Jayson glanced at me for a few seconds and nodded before he returned his attention to his companion.The woman led me to the third floor, and she stopped in front of the door and knocked on it."Come in." A male voice replied. She
