She looked at me intently in the eyes and her meaningful stare was clearly visible. I blushed right away and couldn't utter a word. “What? Cat got your tongue? Your blushing bitch!” she sounded playful. I did not answer her, instead, I leaned and hugged her tightly “Bella, my heart is full," I whispered audibly. She caressed my back “I’m so happy for you," she expressed gently "Don’t be stupid this time, Okay?” she chuckled and I hissed on her warning.
When we pulled out, I showed her my finger. In a second, her lips parted in astonishment “Did he put a ring on you? Tell me!” she giggled excitedly. “This is a beautiful ring one could ever have!" she touched the ring "Congratulations!" and shouted ecstatically. I looked at her with my brimming eyes “Yes, he proposed to me this morning," I sniffed "I’m getting married and this time it’s for real," my voice cracked and tears fell on my face as I felt very emotional.
She held my hands and pressed a little “I bet you did

Bella sent me to the airport because I'll be flying back to Chicago. No one knows in my family about it because I kept it a secret. I wanted to surprise Chadrick as he thought that I’m not coming home yet til’ another two weeks. “I’ll be missing you, bitch!” she hugged me tightly for nearly a minute. “Whoa! That’s so tight woman you’re choking me!” I kidded to lighten our emotions. “I can’t believe you’re leaving me for good,” she whispered audibly. I faced her “What are you a baby?” I teased. She hit me lightly on my shoulder and I laughed at her reaction. "Chicago is a plane ride away," she nodded. I understood that having with each other for two years is quite hard to part ways. "You will be busy in the coming months," I reminded her because she has a lot of assignments as my maid of honor. Inside the plane, I contemplated. That time I came to New York, my heart was bleeding and I was devastated. Our life is not as easy as one, two, three, but with a lot o

He did not react the moment he opened his eyes. He stared at me like he was seeing things with just his imaginations. When his senses were back, he sat up quickly and his eyes flickered for few times. He walked towards me with parted lips in disbelief. “Baby? Am I not dreaming?” he slapped this cheeks to awaken himself. I laughed at his reaction and I hugged him right away. “I missed you,” I whispered softly. He hugged me back while swinging and kissing my temple repeatedly. “You’re really going to be the death me!” he said not able to believe my presence. "Did I surprise you?" I teased. "I am beyond surprise and you have no idea how happy you made me," he said with a flash of light visible on his face. "Why didn't you tell me?" He hissed "I could have fetched you at the airport," he sounded pissed but not enough to convince me. I held my laugh as I find it funny "If I told you, it won't be a surprise anymore," I winked at him and giggled. We walked to

The two of them turned their heads to see us. Mom jumped in excitement when she realized it was me standing near the main door. She ran and hugged me tightly like it was so hard for me to breathe. The happiness on their faces was clearly visible. “Darling, may I see your ring?” mom was in high spirits. I did elevate my hands for them to see my classic diamond ring. My mom’s eyes widened on the exquisite band in my ring finger and both of them said congratulations in unison. "I didn’t know you like to suffer for two long years before braving yourself to confess,” Dad teased and patted Chadrick’s shoulder. The latter cleared his throat “Circumstances resisted us at that time," he paused for a second "I wanted to say sorry again for our actions that offended you before," he breathed out "But I’m thankful that finally, we are here,” he expressed as calmly as he could. “I could say that for her, that was a beautiful offense," Dad breathed out "Because it led

I felt ashamed and if my feeling could kill, I would definitely be six feet under the ground. I thanked God for giving me a cool mom but I never expected him to give me the coolest one. Or I might say the craziest mom one could ever have. I shook my head and buried my face in the palm of my hands. I was really tired after shopping with Mom. I went home and wallowed in a bubble bath while waiting for Chad to get home. I leaned my head on the headrest with my eyes closed and thought about the happenings in my life. Being happy was an understatement and what I felt is beyond it. It’s true that every relationship has its problems, but what makes it triumphant is if you still want to be together when things go wrong. I knew there were times that I’m actually hard to be with but still, he chose me. He fell in love with my childish behavior and I was really thankful that he kept me despite many reasons not to. I have a lot of flaws and shortcomings that could definite

"What is it, Helen?" he asked right away. She narrated that her daughter was rushed to a hospital because she's about to give birth. She said her due date will fall not until next week but it's happening so soon. Chadrick permitted her to take a break and help her daughter in the meantime because the husband was out for his navy duties. She thanked Chadrick for his understanding and compassion. She did not waste more time and left the office immediately. Chadrick sat down to his executive chair and sighed. Worry was clearly visible on his face "What's wrong?" I caressed his arm. He pulled me to sit on his lap "It's hard to work without Helen's help for two weeks," he sniffed on my neck. I hummed "I can help in her absence," I sounded playful. "Will you?" he pulled out from my nook and looked me intently in the eyes. "In one condition," I twisted my lips. "Baby, what is it?" he furrowed his brows. I smiled at him "Don't tell anyone about us," which made him frown. I tol

I hurriedly called Bella after reading her message and she quickly picked it up in two rings. "Spill the tea!" I sounded lively but I heard her breathed out. "Marco's girl left without a trace and he's devastated," she unveiled. We talked for few more minutes and I shared my observation about him before I left New York. I was right that he's in a dilemma over his woman. But I believed he could definitely overcome his pain and eventually move on because he's a strong person. *** It was my first day to assist Chadrick in his office and I find everything running smoothly. Whenever I felt like I needed to use a bathroom, I choose the one outside to refrain from seeing him in his office because we might end up kissing each other. Whenever I stepped inside his office, he couldn't stop himself away from me. I'm afraid we could get naked in no time and couldn't finish the work effectively. In the afternoon, I left him a message that I will go downstairs to get

No one was able to answer him and they just bowed their heads. “What’s the problem here?” I know he sensed that something’s odd so he introduced me to them. “Everyone, this is Allesandra Taylor, my fiancée," he held my hand "she’s the daughter of Alex Taylor our business partner," he informed calmly. "I just want to let you know that we are getting married soon so you might see her often in this office," he added. All the people in the room were surprised to know me. The woman who was furious a while ago stared at me unable to form a word in disbelief. I saw her face was burning in embarrassment. I was hoping she learned her lesson to not judge people easily and be a good leader to her people. “Baby, you’re just here," he pulled me out of that room. "I thought something happened to you because you're not answering your phone,” he sounded worried. "Sorry I left my phone on my table" I apologized briefly. When we got back to his office, he tugged me to the couc

She looked at me like she was hesitant to tell so I brushed it away and changed the topic. "So, how long are you working in the company?" out of my curiosity. "I was employed three weeks ago," she disclosed. I realized that was why she got scolding because she's crawling and not that expert yet. "Anyways, It's so nice to meet you, Faith," I pressed her hand softly "I guess we could be friends from now on," I smiled but she stilled. "I'll be visiting the office often and I'll see you around," I bid goodbye because I knew Chad is waiting for me. When I got back, I saw Chadrick standing beside my table. I smiled at him and asked if he's waiting for too long. He only replied for me to take my time. I picked up my bag for us to go but not before making sure the stuff of Helen was back in proper place neat and clean. Chadrick and I were walking out of the office with his hands at the back of my waist. I sighted some employees smiling at us and some were wishing a g
