“What do we do now?” I asked Jasper and Boo. The doctor told me to stay in bed for the night. My head was spinning. I couldn’t believe what the doctor was telling me. How could I not know what implantation bleeding fucking is?
“There are tests to know who's the father.” Boo was quick to answer and I wanted to punch his face.
“I know that! But I’m not doing those tests while he’s still in the womb.”
“He?” Jasper said, squeezing my hand and smiling. Do you still want to marry me? I wanted to ask him, b

Eleanor May 30, 2009 Boo I called her after I left the hospital in a fit of rage and told her to meet me in the same hotel we were before. The bottle of whiskey was empty by the time she arrived an hour later. Nora looked at me with pity in her eyes and I wanted to laugh. I wanted to cry. I hated the nagging ache that drummed with every heartbeat. I hated Lucille and Jasper. “Are you okay?” “I know everything about you. Why didn’t you just tell me what you needed the money for?” “Coz I don’t want to be somebody’s charity case. I can manage on my own.” “By trying to fuck your w

A Good Day May 30, 2009 Lucille Dr. Steward put me on bed rest for two days after I got released from the hospital. Jasper and I thought it was better if we stayed in my apartment for a while to avoid Boo, who had been ignoring our chats and calls. “Honey? You okay, Lulu bear?” Grandpa Joe peeked his head through my bedroom. “Come in pops.” I grinned from ear to ear. “What’s up?” “Oh nothing. I only wanted to talk to you before we left for the airport. I’m happy to see you so happy, Lu. You deserve all the best things in life.” “But grandpa, I’ve hurt Boo so much. I sh

It’s a Sign June 1, 2009 Boo Having finished all my work before lunch, I called Nora to come by and bring some food. I gave her one of the company credit cards to spend on anything she wants. So far the record shows she only used it to buy lingeries and our lunch. My phone rang and I cancelled the call once I saw it was Jasper. I was ashamed of my outburst, but I also wasn't ready to apologize. Lucille left me a long email explaining how much she loves me and cares for me, but only as a friend and as part of the family. She told me to find my own happiness even if it meant it was Nora whom she still didn't trust. If the baby is yours, Boo I promise we will tell him/her the truth. Please don't be mad anymore. Lucille's letter somehow ma

Why?” “Have you ever been in love before?” Nora looked at me and didn’t say anything. I was about to ask her again when she suddenly said, “Yes. To a man way older than me. He was a nurse who voluntered at the orphanage. And one day, the day before I turned sixteen, he raped me. I’ve never trusted any man ever since.” “I’m sorry to hear that. Th

The Photoshoot June 5, 2009 Lucille Jasper and I drove to a beautiful beach house in the Hamptons for the photoshoot. Two days ago, Steph and Jade came with me to the fitting and they said I looked beautiful. I felt beautiful. The dress was every girl’s dream come true. It showed all the right curves and was just the right amount of puffy. The lace work and real diamonds were to die for. “We're here.” Jasper said, parking the car in a big mansion. “Grandfather’s grandfather helped build this with his own hands. “Wow. That’s amazing. It’s beautiful, Jas.” I got out of the car as he opened the door for me. Ever since that bleeding episode, he has been treating

Mr and Mrs Lauder June 5, 2009 Lucille They say true love is something that a few people find once in their lifetime. I was one of the lucky ones. As I danced with my gorgeous billionaire husband, who would walk through fire for me, my heart overfilled with joy. I rested my head on his chest and inhaled his intoxicating perfume. The band played Unforgettable by Nat KingCole and Jasper and I held each other close. “I love you so much, Lu.” “I love you so much, Jas. I can’t believe you planned all these without telling me. Or without me finding out.” “It’s easy when

Epilogue 2012 Lucille “Jasper! Get your son out of that mud pit right away!” I shouted as little Aspen kept jumping up and down, splashing mud all over his clothes and face. “He won’t listen to me, Lu. He’s the boss!” Jasper tried pulling Aspen but he sat on the ground. “I’ll show you who’s the Boss. Come here you two!” I shouted at them while I ran. “Ahhhh run Aspen, run! Mommy Monster is coming to eat us.” Jasper and Aspen ran toward the mansion and I shouted for them to stop before they brought mud all over the house. But of course I was too late. Mud was all over the floor. After our two months honeymoon, Jasp

Epilogue 2011 Boo The early morning snow made everything outside look like a picture on a Christmas card. I've always hated Christmas ever since Daisy died. But now looking at Nora, DJ and Jessie decorating the huge tree in the living room of our new mansion, I realized it was my favorite holiday again. "Daddy! I need you to lift me up so I can put the star. Please?" DJ called me and interrupted my thoughts. The nine foot tree colourfully glowed, making me miss grandpa who always loved Christmas trees. "Ok, baby. Come here." I held her by the waist and hoisted her up. "Boy, you're getting heavy." "Done." DJ beamed. I put her do
