I’ve been inside his car for a few minutes now, but he still has not spoken. He was just looking ahead, like he’s thinking about something. He's been asking me for a chance to hear him explain, but now that we're here, he can't seem to find that courage to give answers to my questions.

"My dad was abusive," I heard him start. My eyes instantly fell on him. He was still just looking ahead still. "I made myself believe that we're fine. Because in the eyes of other people, we're the perfect family. He’s a doctor and he has a son who’s following his steps. No one wants to let the world know how he would hurt me and my mom every time he would lose his temper because we think no one would even listen."

I didn't know this part of his life. Well, I didn't know much about him before. We never got to that part where we got to know each other more because before we could even do that, he ran away.

"When my stepmom and I finally got the chance to leave him, we took it," he murmured. "I wanted

  • One Week Stand   Chapter 110

    Exactly on a Sunday, Andrew turned a month old. We don't really have any plans to have a party or anything extravagant. But Daisy being Daisy, she was able to pursuade me into having a gathering for Andrew's 1st month. She said it's just us—simple dinner and some photography sesh. It has become a trend to have creative pictures when a baby turns a month older. They said it's all over social media, but I don't usually use social media so I was really not sure. But Daisy made the effort to search for inspos online and would send those to me. The theme for this gathering is baby blue. So everyone invited to the gathering are required to wear anything blue. Before the dinner, the photoshoot will take place. I wanted to do DIY photoshoot. But again, Daisy being Daisy, she hired a professional photographer. She really spent money on this. "You look so handsome!" She commented when she saw Andrew wearing the little baby blue polo shirt she bought. Even Andrei is wearing the same polo sh

    Zandrey's words made me awake for hours at night. It bothered me for the past few days. I couldn't even look at him when he's around. Seeing him just reminds me of all the words he murmured that damn night. He was well aware that I'm not allowed to engage on any sexual stuff. Yet he teased me and made me restless for nights. I wanted to do the same thing to him, but I didn't have the chance. I was busy with the kids and there's no way I can do that. "What's with your face?" Daisy asked. She's here at home to visit me and the baby. Everybody's at work since it's a weekday. She said she's not busy so I just let her.She's carrying Andrew right now and she really loves holding the baby. I feel like she doesn't want to be away from him. She keeps on smelling his head- which really smells so good. She wouldn't want to let him go even when he's already sleeping. I wonder if she's not getting tired from holding him. The baby's growing so fast and he's heavier now, but she doesn't seem to

    "Let me do it," Zandrey whispered when we heard Baby Andrew crying. I'm not sure what the time is right now. I just know that the sun is still not up. Thankfully, it's the start of Zandrey's day off that's why he's here. He just got home after a long duty at the hospital a few hours ago. But even if he's tired from work, he still insisted on taking care of the baby. But i couldn't just let him do all the work when he's exhausted from work. "No, let me," I insisted. He already stood up, but I followed. "You're exhausted. Go back to bed and sleep," I commanded. I'm not even sure if I sound firm enough for him to follow. There are quite a lot of people who gets intimidated when I talk. But I guess Zandrey is the exception. I remember back in college, when we first met, we got so well already. On normal situations, that would not happen because I'm not even friendly and I easily feel discomfort when I'm with people I'm not close with. That's why I don't have that much friends. Weird

    Good thing I gave birth naturally, so we only stayed in the hospital for a few days. The recovery was still quite hard, but I was glad we're finally home. Zandrey wanted to hire additional help to assist me in taking care of Baby Andrew, but I insisted on not doing that for now. I'm on maternity leave and Mom Emily's here to help so I know I can handle it. Maybe when I go back to work, that's when we'll hire another help. Because I'm sure it will be quite handful to juggle work and take care of kids at the same time. But I still want to be as hands on as possible. I dom't have to think about it for now. I still have months to think about that. We haven't yet discuss the topic that we left off last time. Maybe he was waiting for me to open the topic first, since I was the one who asked for more time. It has been on my head for days. The question just kept on coming back. "Are you okay?" Mommy Emily asked. Andrew just fell asleep and I was supposed to sleep as well but I could

    "Can we please... make this work?" It kept on rewinding on my head. Dad, Mom, and Daisy are still around but it was like it's just us here. It was like we were oblivious with our surroundings. I know this time will come- that we need to talk about us. We have 3 kids, and we have to be firm on where this is really heading us. In my mind, I was okay with just being co-parents. We were working it out. I believe we have been great parents the past months. But maybe we cannot just stay like this forever. Because there are kids involved. But I don't think I was ready for any talk about this, or was I? Maybd I was running away from that fact. Maybe I'm a coward. Maybe I don't have the bones to face all of these because I was scared of where this would lead us. But because of the never ending questions, I can't help but also wonder. Can we really make this work? I looked around and it seemed like all the people inside have sensed where our talk is going. "Can we take Baby

    The pain was doubling each time. I could feel beads of sweat forming on my neck and forehead. I have inhaled-exhaled hundreds of times, but the pain was still there. I expected the extent of the pain because I've done this before. But god, experiencing it again for the second time does not make you used to the pain.Everything fucking hurts.Being in labor hurts so much. I was trying my best not to push here, even if I wanted to. I can feel the baby's already crowning. I don't want to give birth to my child here. Not when this car is not sanitized or whatever. But it really hurts, and Daisy must know because of the way I'm holding her hand- like it's my source of strength. I know she's hurting too but she's not saying anything. This is the only way I get to distract myself from the pain."I can't do it anymore," I cried. I actually can, but words are rumbling on my head. I don't know what to think or say anymore. The pain was taking over me entirely."We're almost there, Ai," Daisy mu
