Chapt. 41
It's been two days since her world had stopped. Apparently, since the truth had been revealed. She still couldn't believe her mind whenever it set on reminiscing. Sometimes when she slept and woke up, she would pray it was all just a dream but reality will knock her out when she would call on Gianna and receive no reply.
The day after the incident, Louisa packed Gianna's little luggage and drove her to her father's where she thought the little girl will be better off until she had her shit together.
Occasionally, her head would hurt just thinking too much, and will get an aspirin each time it occurred so much that she had lost count of the number of aspirin ingested. Overdose? She cared less.
"Louisa." She heard someone call. The barely recognizable voice echoed in her head. A brutal knock followed. That too echoed, making her head thump unsystematically. Despite all that, Louisa seemed to know the one and only person who could do that since it's been t

Louisa's eyes wandered for a bit. She could not stay mad at Zaphrina for long not only because of her puppy face but also because they had shared a lot of things together and she had a way with words that touched her differently.She should definitely think of becoming a counselor."Marley must have told you about my encounter with Conrad.""Yeah, he did. That was an abrupt appearance from the abyss, wasn't it?""You can say that again," Louisa watched Bethany pull on her mother's breast fisting and unfisting her miniature fingers with her brilliant eyes intently gawking her mum. "I don't know what to do, no, I mean, I don't know how to go about it.""I understand. Relations should not be forced. It's a go-with-the-flow kind of thing, I don't know if you get what I'm trying to say," Louisa nodded, "yeah, so...you can meet up somewhere just like you would do with a business partner. Talk about basic stuff and eventually get into the matter at hand."

Mason took a U-turn to the pharmacy after dropping Zaphrina off. He had a good time talking about everything and anything with her, like the good old days. When he arrived at the pharmacy, the door opened before he could reach for the knob. He came in contact with a face that he had seen before; same salt and pepper bob but contrary to the last time she was in a pair of faded jean baggy jumpsuit, this time she had on a short leather skirt beneath a crop top. She smiled at him with charm and warmth then frowned. "Oh my! What happened to your face?" Mason rubbed his neck not just out of nervousness but also trying to recall the lady's name. "Got into a little fight," he vaguely retorted. "Oh, you didn't seem to be that kind of person some days back." "Don't judge a book by its cover, you know that? For all you know you might be talking to a criminal." He chuckled but the lady didn't seem to find the joke. A sad mask appeared on her b

"No, tell her I'll be late. I'm expecting a client today," Louisa said, "yes, but make sure the design is exactly what she wants," she played with a pencil between her dainty fingers."Okay, what about the pantry cabinets? She requested something extravagant, you know that right?...okay...okay, that's a great idea, I'll pass by in about an hour or so." With that, she dropped the call. Nerry knocked when she had halfway drifted her mind to Gianna. It's been roughly fifty hours since she hadn't seen her and she missed her so much. But she didn't want the little girl to see her in the bitter mood she was in. "Mr. Wayne just arrived, Miss," Nerry reported. "Let him in." "Right away." Her immediate disappearance had a charming man walk-in in a businessman's suit. If the a.c wasn't on she would be erratically fanning her face from heat. "Good morning, Miss. Woods." His signature smile exhibited those killer dimples she had come to admire more than life itself. "Have a seat, Mr. Way--"

Mason was back in the Mansion the next day due to swift and effective procedures. Dylan facilitated his workload with the confirmation of the first plan he sent to him which made his night serene and almost peaceful. Almost. He had been trying to reach Louisa the previous day and that morning on his drive to the estate to no avail. What was he thinking? Upon arrival, his team members were already present. All he had to do was show them the plan and get to work. The task at hand wasn't much but that didn't mean a day was enough to do everything. In the course of demolishing, Mason felt a little dizzy and decided to sit on one of the dusty sheet-covered sofas in the living room where he watched the cloudless blue sky through the glass roof. One good thing was it restrained the burning sun rays. Amid all the hammering, tumbling of bricks, panel sawing, Mason still managed to find sleep. Just mild enough to hear approaching footsteps. It wasn't those of the heavy boots he and his cow

She prayed for Ace to be wrong. She didn't properly know how to change a diaper without creating a mess. Bethany was now crying at the top of her tiny lungs when Louisa gave the milk a try. When the little girl whipped her head away from the bottle, Louisa embraced her fate.Service will soon be over after all, in case she rubbed shit on her no one will notice. "Need help?" "No," she snapped without looking who. "But you're taking that diaper out the wrong way. You'll get stained in that way." "So?" Mason held both her hands, "let me do it," with care, he removed Bethany's wasted diaper, "do you have wipes with you?" Louisa searched in the maternity bag and gave him the baby's wipes."I used to do this to Louis most of the time. Any Vaseline or diaper cream?" Louisa gave him a diaper cream. "It was the only moment I could spend some quality time with him," he played with Bethany's cheeks causing her to giggle. "A

"I'm sorry to disturb, again," he heard Lydia say when he was busy plastering a brick wall, "I'll need your trowel for a minute or two if you don't mind." "You're not disturbing at all," he grinned back at the lady, "I was rounding up with the plastering. Let me get to my toolbox," reaching it, he helter skeltered the handable tools which were in the big steel box, "I kept that thing in here." He muttered to himself. "Is this what you're looking for?" She pointed to the equipment which was half-buried in an empty bag of cement. Mason gently shook his head. "That's what it does when there's a pretty lady around." Lydia flushed. Mason tried to brush his indirect compliment with, "need a helping hand?" "No worries." "I honestly want to learn one or two things about flowers from you before my contract here is over. It will be a shame if you deny me that honor." "Okay, Mr. Drama king. I just don't want my brother to think I recycled his arc

"Hum, tantalizing lady," Dylan admitted. He couldn't lie on that. He'd been insanely attracted to her from the time he'd set eyes on her days back even though his first impression of her contradicted what he had been hearing from jabberings. In a good way."Is that your stand?" He could sense that she was a good person behind the cold and frightening mask. That which only made him want to know her more, in person. But she was still struggling to be discrete with her personal life. Perhaps he hadn't tried hard enough to persuade her that he had nothing but good intentions or perhaps she just didn't talk much. So far, he'd succeeded in cracking her to speak despite the moody guise she performed, and that alone stirred him up in a way he couldn't understand. But that wasn't his only aim tonight. If he was supposed to prove to himself that even though his father's blood coursed through his veins, he was much more capable to treat women more than just sexual satisf

Inspired by One republic- ships + tides. Louisa woke up minutes later feeling an extra weight and a presence on the right side of her bed. How did she get there? The last thing she remembered was she was in a heated fight with Mason then she felt dizzy all of a sudden. She turned to Mason who was tracing out her facial features. "How're you feeling?" He asked with sufficient concern. "I'm fine. You can leave now if you were waiting on me to be awake." He sat there. Silent. Collected. "Didn't you hear me?" She emphasized. "I heard you right," she enlargened her eyes urging him to move, "I guess I can't change the resentment you have towards me, so I'll finally grant your heart desire. I'll disappear. I'll avoid you. But just promise me two things." He waited for her to say something to give him a go-ahead but she said nothing. "To not get intimate with any man unless he's worth it and to let me at least ke
