I woke up feeling sore in all the right places. I found myself in my bed and my baby was still sleeping soundly with a smile on his face. I kissed him on the cheek and he moved a little.I scanned my eyes around the room but I found no David.I quickly got up and went to the kitchen when I found a sticky note on the fridge door.Good morning baby! Got a business call. Be right back.DavidAfter throwing the paper to the bin, I didn't know what I should feel now. He left. He didn't even wait until I woke up. He just left a pathetic note.It was a stupid, stupid decision. Too late to repent, Olivia. I scolded myself. It had been made and done. He got what he wanted so now he was leaving you again. He was done with you.I heard my phone ringing. When I checked the caller ID, I saw France's name.“Hi Franny!”“Hi bunny! How are you doing? How is my adorable nephew?”“We're great. He is still sleeping though.”“Can you take a picture of him now? I miss you guys so much.”“Okay, please be
I got off from this king size bed when I noticed my baby was no longer beside me. I didn't bother putting any slippers on and just rushed out of the room immediately. I found David and my baby sitting on the couch watching cartoons. My baby was springing and kicking in excitement on his father's lap. They were singing along with the characters on the screen. I sighed and stared blankly. My son needs his father. I am not a selfish mother to deprive him of having and being loved by his father. I was standing at the door far behind them. I was wearing a white long sleeve that had his scent. He must had changed me and put me to bed. My baby saw me and he started giggling and babbling "mamamamamamama!"David turned his head and he looked at me. His eyes were sad but smiling. I walked to them and stood at the back of the couch kissing my baby at the same time enclosing David from behind. I sat on the couch beside them. I just noticed that I was only wearing my underwear, no bra on.
David had been very attentive to us. He even hired his men to watch us every single hour. It crept me out sometimes especially when you were being followed wherever you went.During bedtime, I let him sleep inside the bedroom but not on the same bed. He slept on the makeshift mattress on the floor. Although my bed was big enough for four people, he wanted to give a bigger space to his son. My baby slept like a roller coaster. He kept on flipping and turning around and David didn't want to run him over.I was getting ready to bed. David went out for a while after dinner to settle some issues with his business. My phone rang and I saw David's name on the screen."David?""Hi baby, I'm outside.""Okay, wait a minute." I got up from bed to open the door for him.He was standing there in his glorious suit and even he looked stressed, he was still handsome."Come in." I smiled and he pulled me by my waist and kissed my hair then my lips."I need to talk to you." He said.My smile faded.I k
My baby would be turning one next month already. This melancholic feeling in me made me more sad and doubtful knowing that sooner or later, he would be growing up into a man and would explore the world, get a job, and would eventually move out from our house.I was hesitant to face the reality but for the bright future of my baby, I would do anything for him.I have enough money saved in the bank and I have already planned the theme for my baby's birthday party. France offered to take care of the expenses but I refused. He didn't fight anymore because he knew he wouldn't win, instead, he suggested to take care of the technical stuffs such as the lights and sounds, and the picture takings.I got so ecstatic for this big day for my baby. I even had a special planner so I could easily organized the things needed for the party.I already sent invitations to my son's godmothers and godfathers, and their kids. Some of France's employees would also be coming. They were very fond of my baby a
The mixed smells of bacon, hotdog, and coffee had awaken me. My body was lured to the aroma of coffee and my tongue only wanted nothing else but to taste it. I glanced at the clock on the bedside table to discover that it was still five in the morning. Who the heck used my kitchen at this early hour?I put on my slippers forgetting my just-woke-up hair and instantly headed outside. David was gloriously standing in my pink apron cooking breakfast.“How did you get in?” I asked him.“Good morning baby!” He replied walking closer to me and kissing my cheeks. I blushed unknowingly.“Please sit down. I'll take care of you.” He nervously smiled. Do I make him feel intimidated?“Coffee?” He offered and I just replied with a nod. I was staring at him blankly.The house was silent. Neither of us talked or opened a topic for discussion. I also didn't know where or what to begin with.All the time, he was attentive to me and he even served me on my plate.“I'm full.” I told him when he served m
While I was cooking breakfast, I heard the incessant ringing of David's phone on the kitchen table. He was still in the shower. On its 4th call, I decided to answer it."Hello, this is David's phone!" "Hi, is David around?" Asked by a man's voice on the other line."Yeah, he's currently in the shower, would you like to leave a message for him.""Yes, please. Ahm, who am i speaking to." "This is Olivia." "Olivia?...as in Olivia Miller?" His toned seemed surprised."Oh no!... I'm Olivia Grey." "I apologize. Miss Grey, this is Leandro Smith, I am David's lawyer. I just want to inform him on the case about his marriage." "His marriage." I froze. "Yes Miss Grey! He is still legally married. I wish to speak to him regarding this." "I will inform him." My nerves were stiffed."Thank you Miss Grey! Have a good day!" I put the phone down.What was he talking about? Marriage? Legally binded? Didn't David submit the divorce papers? My knees were wobbling and I felt completely numb. I tr
I used to watch cartoons, well even more now especially that my baby was also fond of those funny colorful objects on the tv screen. When we were living together before the divorce, he just wanted me to stay in his penthouse. If I got bored of reading books or cleaning the house, I always opted to watching cartoons and it relieved me so much. "Can you manage bathing him?" "Of course I can." He happily answered."I read many books about babies so I think I will do good in this." Seriously? Since when? I wanted to laugh thinking that the fierce David Miller was sitting in a corner reading baby books. "As you wish." I had to help him undress our baby. My little munchkin couldn't stop squeeling and bumping in all ways and his father had a hard time keeping him still. I was laughing even more when my baby drooled and cackled so much when I tickled him. "There you go!" "Thank you mommy!" David spoke like a baby making me chuckled.He carried my baby to the bathroom while singing a
He brushed and sprawled my hair freely on the bed. He smiled nervously. "I was visiting you at school since France offered to watch our son. Mr. Patrick assisted me but Miss Victoria came and offered to help me instead. She kept on talking and laughing to me but I didn't listen and I don't care what she was saying."His sincere tone melted me slowly. I knew David. I knew all his expressions."My mind was filled with ideas on where to take you out. I did returned a gesture as a respect. I'm sorry, baby. I was insensitive. I should had known it was hurting you already. It was never my intention to hurt you, baby." I just stared at him, unable to utter any response."Even if you would ask Mr. Patrick, I went there and was looking only for you." I nodded and gave him a tiny beam. He cupped my face closer to his and we were only centimeters away from each other."When I say I am going to get you back, I swear in all my life and forever that I will never stop until my last breath." My
