The Marriage Contract #19
**LIA** We had the TV on, while eating and chilling with our pizza and beer, which was the best combo by the way. We argued a bit before agreeing on what to watch. Which was by the way Miraculous, who’d argue on that. After laughing a lot at the show, which was mostly done by me, I glanced towards him, he was so focused on the cartoon so much that I doubt he’d notice me staring. Why does he have to be a jerk and still look so good? “Hungry?” he asked taking a slip of his beer, then squeezing the can signifying he was done with it. Hungry? What does he mean? I’m not hungry I just ate. He then turn to face me. “Lost now aren’t we? He asked chuckling. Is he already drunk? I mean, it’s only two cans. How weak is he? “What? I am not. Good night.” I said then stood up, was about making my way to the bedroom when my hand was grabbed and I was pulled back, and before I knew it I had landed on his lap sideways, I had to hold his neck for support, so I used one of my hand to. A bit of my

**LIA** Why do I feel so good right now? Why do I feel so warm? Did I leave the heater on? So many questions popping up at the good feels I was getting. Suddenly my eyes shot opened in realization. “We did the deed.” I whisper and then used my free hand to hush myself, apparently I was being cuddled by Drex so firm. Why am I feeling happy about this though? The silence was then interrupted by the ringing of Drex’s phone on the dressing table beside the side at his side. The movement of his body and the removal of his arms around me signified that he was awake, because I was backing him I wasn’t sure until I heard his voice. “Hello” his deep voice echoes. He sounded oddly calm, so I decided to turn around to see what’s up. Immediately he saw my face it was like realization just hit him in the balls, he just couldn’t scream because he was on the phone. “Face time? ...yeah…sure” it was like he was trying to compose himself, he cleared his throat and the puts his arm around my should

**LIA** After my refreshing shower, I opted for a comfortable travel outfit. I donned a pair of grey cargo pants and a black crop hoodie, ideal for the impending flight. I secured my hair into a ponytail, with plans to release it later. Tying it up initially saved me from the trouble of constantly managing it. As I looked around the room, I couldn't help but notice the mild disarray. Even though room service would eventually tidy it up, my compulsive nature got the best of me. I embarked on an impromptu room-cleaning session after I packed my travel bag and placed it beside Drex's. My curiosity about Drex's whereabouts nagged at me. It was unusual for him to be away for so long, and even though I was savoring the peace, a sense of unease gnawed at me. Upon completing my impromptu cleaning duties, I decided I deserved a pat on the back for making the room presentable again. With a satisfied smile, I left the room to head to the hotel's dining hall for a much-needed meal. My choice was

**LIA** Jasper, who helped me through out the journey, through his stories, I enjoyed his company so much that I had forgotten what was up. As soon as the announcement of the plane wanting to land was heard, I realized reality. I had to go back to my seat. "Thank you so much for this Jasper, maybe if you're not too busy, we can hang out sometime, but as of now I have to go back to my husband." I said already unbuckling the seatbelt. "I'd like that very much." He gave me a smile, before I left. When I got back to my seat, it was as if Drex was waiting for me, his eyes followed me from where I was till I sat down beside him. He broke the silence finally. "Oh, I thought you were gonna use the whole time there. Why didn't you?" He challenged me. Oh for the love of God! "Well I'm sure I am not the only one who heard, we'd be landing soon." I replied. "Alright fine. I'm sorry about this morning, everything that happened seemed so sudden and I had no idea. Last night was a blur an

**LIA** When we finally returned to our new apartment after the dinner with the Kings, they kindly offered to take Angel for the night to allow me some much-needed rest. The exhaustion was undeniable, but the mere thought of being separated from her after all those long months was unbearable. I politely declined their offer, assuring them that I could handle it, and took Angel to my room, tucking her in for a peaceful night's sleep. The apartment, still new and unfamiliar, felt simultaneously welcoming and foreign. The soft hum of the air conditioning provided a soothing background noise, and the dim glow of the city's lights outside the window offered a sense of tranquility. After settling Angel, a burning determination filled me. I couldn't let Drex's father control our lives the way he did his own son's. With a resolute knock on Drex's bedroom door, I signaled my intent. "Hey Drex, I need to talk to you," I announced. With a knock on his room door. "Be right out!" he yelled fro
The Marriage Contract #24
**LIA** It had been a full week since we moved into our apartment, and in that time, our communication had been limited to mere glances or occasional encounters in the kitchen or the living room. A brief exchange of greetings, and nothing more. This was the agreement we had settled on, and I tried not to let it bother me. In truth, I had no complaints. Drex had been bringing his girlfriend over, and they seemed to enjoy their time together. He would always give me a heads-up, so I'd either vacate the premises or stay confined to my room while they were around. During these times, I would often meet up with Jasper, and to my surprise, Angel had taken a liking to him faster than I had expected. They hit it off so well that I felt comfortable asking Jasper to help watch her if I had to go to work. On the ninth day, as I was taking a leisurely stroll with Angel in her stroller, I spotted Jasper. "Hey?" I called out to him. "Lia?" Jasper seemed as surprised as I was. "Are you in this n

**LIA** The meal Jasper prepared was not only delicious but also a rare treat for me. Long hours at work had turned my home into a place I barely spent time in. Instead, I relied on takeout or dining out, and my kitchen rarely saw the presence of groceries. The only cooking I did at home was for Angel, carefully preparing her baby food. I expressed my heartfelt gratitude to Jasper for the meal, emphasizing how it had been so long since I had the pleasure of a home-cooked meal. When I entered my house, I was met with a less than welcoming sight – Drex, seated on the couch with a deep frown etched across his face. His posture conveyed his disapproval, and it was evident that he had been waiting for my return. Arms were folded, and he looked as if he had something important to discuss. Not wanting to let him know that I was aware of his presence, I feigned ignorance and gently placed Angel on the floor. "Come on, Angel, let's go play in our room," I cooed, helping her take her wobbly f
The Marriage Contract #26
**DREX** Thud! A loud noise reverberated through Lia’s room, Distracting me from what I was doing on my phone and amidst the echoes, the baby began crying, I'd thought it should stop by now, assuming Lia was attending to her but the cries of the baby intensified. Though I'd been somewhat nonchalant about the baby, preoccupied with school and thoughts of Jesse, the escalating cries drew my attention. Anticipating Lia to have attended to the baby's needs, the persistent screams suggested otherwise. Worry gnawed at me, prompting me to rise from the couch and rush into Lia’s room. To my dismay, I discovered the baby lying on the floor, having fallen from the bed. Lia, engrossed in the shower, seemed oblivious to the incident. Without hesitation, I scooped up the distraught infant, attempting to soothe her distressed cries. “There, there, baby girl. It’s okay, I got you,” I murmured, cradling her gently. As I wiped away her tears, she gazed at me with an odd intensity. A sudden warmth
