Philip arrived just before Natasha, the hairstylist he sent to fix help his wife, could leave their house. They exchanged quick hello's and she told him that they should bond sometimes, after all, they're childhood friends.
Before the lad could reach the kitchen, he heard the footsteps coming from the stairs. He whipped his head up and was faced by his wife's caramel orbs. The shade of brown that Jessica's eyes possessed became his new favorite color.
"You look so beautiful in that dress," The lad complimented her just when Jessica reached his side. He looked at his wife from head to toe and couldn't help but let out a smile.
"But to be honest, you're even more beautiful without that dress on..." Philip said, his smile slowly turned into a smirk. And Jessica could feel her cheeks suddenly heat up.
"Silly you," She said and playfully smacked the lad's arm. It's just then when the brunette noticed the costume her husband was wearing. She's used
"I think, we should go home now..." Philip added in a husky tone while looking into his wife's eyes.Jessica squealed when she felt the lad lift her up the ground and ran towards the car, carrying her bridal style. They didn't even bid his investor goodbye and just made their way back home."Philip! Put me down!" But Philip didn't listen to her but instead proceeded with carrying her once they arrived at their house. After the car ride, she still carried the brunette inside. Once they were inside, Philip brought her down. Then Jessica smacked his arm. "You're such a silly per
Jessica's eyes opened and the first thing she noticed was the pair of ocean blue eyes staring down at her. And just by looking in those beautiful orbs made her remember the things that happened the night before. It caused her to blush and look away from her husband's gaze."You're blushing. Is something wrong?" You could tell that Philip also just woke up because of how deep his voice was. And Jessica did everything she could to not show the lad how his voice kind of turned her on.She shook her head as a reply to her husband's question.
It was almost midnight when Philip got back to their house. She had to finish all the papers that he left, causing him to not notice the time.As he opened the door, all the lights were off and everybody seemed to be asleep already. He went to the kitchen to drink some water and kind of refresh himself.He was about head upstairs to rest when he noticed something move on the couch inside the living room. He shook his head once he realized what caused the movement. The lad quickly made his way over the couch and realized that he was indeed right.
"Good morning, Sir," Jordan, one of his employees greeted him as he entered the building."Morning," Some of the people who heard him, gasped. Most of their eyes were as wide as plates as they tried to realize what just happened. It's like, a miracle came down from heaven when they heard their boss answer one of them back. It was short, yes, but the lad isn't one who replies to them.The lad's face remained serious though and he didn't mind the whispers from his employees even if he knows that they're talking about him. He just simply walked past them and entered his of
Jessica woke up because of the pain she felt on her back. She got it because of the position she was in last night. Oh yeah, she forgot that she had fallen asleep on the couch. And she also remembered all that happened last night. All the yelling, tears, and revelation to Philip came rushing back into her mind.Then she noticed the blanket hovering over her body that caused a smile to appear on Jessica's lips. There's only one person who would care enough to do this. And she knows that it was Philip."Good morning J," Sarah appeared out of nowhere when Jessica got up from the
Four days had passed and the lad still didn't come home. And Jessica was clueless as to where could her husband be. She wonders if he's okay, if he's eating right, and if he misses her as much as she misses him.The brunette would always wait for Philip on the couch and sometimes she would fall asleep there. It was uncomfortable and when she wakes up, her back always felt sore. Even if she lacks sleep, she would still wait for Philip, thinking that maybe he'll be back anytime that day. But she'll just be disappointed the next day when Sarah would tell her that the lad still hasn't come home.
The doorbell rang repeatedly and Jessica quickly went to the front door to open it. Everybody was still asleep since it’s just eight in the morning and she didn't want them waking up just yet, especially the lad so even if she's emotionally tired, she got up and opened the door.She was met by a bouquet of roses and a paper bag with a familiar food chain logo on it."Elijah? What're you doin' here?" Jessica asked in her morning voice.
Jessica woke up to the sound of the door creaking open. She rubbed her eyes to try and adjust to the light and when she does, she saw her husband carrying a tray of food while a huge smile was plastered on his face."Hey, good morning," The lad greeted her as he placed the tray on the bedside table. "I cooked breakfast for you. You should eat." He said and helped Jessica sit up and lean her back on the headboard."Have you eaten yet?" The brunette asked as Philip started to cool down the spoonful of soup.
