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
"Won't you come inside?" Lydia quizzed. "Next time. I'm not..." He looked at his dirty work outfit, "presentable." "Is that what you worry about? No one's going to question you or look at you oddly," She urged. "Lydia, thanks for the offer but next time. I promise." "If you say so. Good night then." She waved and sauntered into the villa. He admired the house for a few more minutes, as he did any beautiful house which he came across, before walking to the driver's seat. He had recently begun to design a house plan. He wished he wasn't doing it alone. But as unsure as he was about his future with the lady who owned his heart, Mason decided to go through it alone. He would be done with his contract the next day that which will give him enough room to show his mum the house he has bought for her. He smiled at her delight to come. "Mason," he heard Dylan call. The latter shut his car and walked toward him. "Hope you're good. Look,
He was as glad as excited to have had a go-ahead. He really liked Louisa and hoped for something more. He'd had enough with sleeping around, for god's sake he was twenty-eight. Hopefully, with Louisa, he would be forced to keep it in his pants and not lose interest in as short a time as swatting a fly. Dylan has only once been into something close to serious but it got sour after four weeks. To him, settling for one face was like repeating a suit for two days. Simply impossible. 'You're a chip off the old block, son. There's no changing that." Again, his father's words sieved through. If it wasn't for his mother, he would've kicked the son of a gun out of his doorstep the very second he showed up. How was the woman so compassionate despite all that he'd made her go through? 'He's still your dad, Dylan.' She had said to him. Bull shit! What kind of father will go around dissipating semen from one fertile egg to the other? What kind of father will leave home and cut ties for unknown
Now that Louisa was around, Mason thought it wise to alert her of his finished amendments. He met her in the conservatory room gazing at the glass roof that confined them from the harsh sun rays with chest folded arms. Mason eye-sculpted her slim and delicate figure as long as she hadn't realized his presence. After his satisfaction, he approached her until he was two arms reach away from her that she turned to him. "I've seen them all," she dryly said. "But there are still some lingering worries I just realized." Louisa tilted her head upwards again and pointed out to the steel rafters, "I want them a little less elevated. This one gives an impression of being in a hollow and sunlight seems reluctant to reach the floor." She lowered her fingers to the steel truss, "I know not much about these things...what do you call them again?" "Truss," he calmly replied. "Yeah, these are not so luring and corresponding. I saw a style that caught my attention.
She had heard from sources that the previous day was Mason's last day of work and a part of her crumbled because it was probably going to be the last time they met or till further notice when fate decided to act as a client in shiny armor. Luckily, she did her twists and turns to have him stay a day longer even though seeing him buzz around Lydia killed her inside. Truthfully, the conservatory had no crucial trouble. She could deal with it however way and still have a splendid result. Not to show off. Now Louisa reached her temporal job site eager to round up with her work to focus on other matters at hand and to see the relaxing and contracting exercises of Mason's biceps as they hammered and pulled out one thing to another. A torrential current stroke in between her legs at the simple thought causing the similar shiver to prowl to the rest of her body. Her first destination was the conservatory room. To her greatest dismay, her eyes detected no Mason on the
Mason cried. It was the best shortest moment of his life. The joy he felt was incomparable so much that he slept like a baby for the first time in a week and woke up like a giant the next day. At some point that morning, the words became his password to smile when his breakfast burnt again the fourth time that week, when he hit his little toe against the bed, when the shaving blade cut him, and even when he ran out of fuel on his way to work. "Good morning, Donovan," Michael, a new friend he made on his first day of work and a colleague he shared an office with, said. Tall and lean was a vivid description of him. On his face was a narrow nose with a slightly curved tip, thick-rimmed lenses which slightly magnified his little eyes distantly rested above small lips. Midnight Black was his short impeccably kept curls—typical dork criteria. "Good morning," Mason reflected, "anything new this morning?" "Not yet. Still trying to round up with yester
