MARK

I returned to the bedroom and found Alexa not only distressed, but with tears in her eyes. She wasn’t crying…yet, but she had traces of tears already.

“Alexa, what’s wrong?” I asked her worriedly.

This wasn’t the Alexa I left in the room. Actually, she wasn’t exactly thrilled. She had seemed like she was a little embarrassed after hugging me and she needed some time to herself, which was exactly why I took a walk, but she was completely different.

“Did I do something wrong?” I asked.

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Standing In The Way

    MARK“You haven’t answered my question, Mona,” I told her tightly.“Oh, but I have,” Mona responded.Then she sat back down, gently placing the bottle of champagne on the table.“I came to celebrate with you, and I figured that since we would be parents soon, we should spend the New Year together,” she added. “And where are you coming from at this time of the night?” Mona asked, staring at me.“We are not going to be a family, Mona,” I blurted out angrily, ignoring her question.She was gradually becoming a problem I couldn’t get rid of.“I am pregnant for you, Mark,” Mona reminded me.And I really wished that she wasn’t.I knew I was being cruel right now, but I couldn’t it.Blaming Alexa for being the reason I got together with Mona; if she hadn’t pushed me away, I would never have considered Mona, would have been good, just as I had earlier done, but the truth was that I couldn’t blame her.Alexa didn’t ask me to be with another woman.I could have kept to myself and stayed celibat

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Talk About The Devil

    MARKOn my way back home, I called Vector; I just couldn’t wait.“Vector, were you sleeping already?” I asked the moment the call connected.It was almost midnight already, so it was quite possible that Vector might have slept off, but from the sound of his voice, it didn’t seem like he was sleeping, and even if he was, I didn’t mind waking him up. Vector was my best friend for a reason.“No, I wasn’t,” Vector responded. “And why do you sound so excited?” Vector asked.But before I could give an answer, he had already figured it out.“This is about your night with Alexa, isn’t it?” He asked me.“Yes, it is,” I answered, relieved that he hadn’t totally forgotten that I was spending the eve with Alexa.“Hmm, it must have gone well with the way you are sounding,” Vector stated with suspicion in his voice.“I asked her to marry me,” I blurted out.“What?” Vector was stunned to his bones. “You didn’t tell me that you were going to do something like that,” Vector added.“I didn’t think I wa

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Before New Year

    ALEXA“He asked me to marry him, Noelle!” I yelled into the phone as soon as Mark drove out and Noelle picked up.It was about a few minutes to the New Year.Mark and I had surprisingly spent more hours at the local diner, way more than we had ever spent with each other, and after his proposal, I could barely wait to talk to Noelle.I wasn’t certain she would pick up, but I was too desperate not to try.“What?” Noelle was stunned to her bones. “Who?” Noelle asked even though we both knew who I was referring to.“Mark asked me to marry him a while ago, Noelle,” I blurted out again.I just couldn’t get into the house, so I stopped in the living room to speak with Noelle. Every part of me was acting in a way I couldn’t even understand. I didn’t know how best to explain it.Mark Ronaldo and I were married for five years before our messy divorce, but this was the first time he was actually asking me to marry him…a few hours to the New Year!“Are you serious?” Noelle sounded more stupefied.

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Out Of The Blue

    MARKSince Alexa wanted to talk about something else, I didn’t have a choice but to oblige her. Thankfully, she wasn’t asking something that might ruin the mood, and hopefully, I would be able to find my way around telling her how I felt.“Well, Reyna helped me make the necessary arrangements,” I told her.The moment I did, I caught something flash in Alexa’s eyes, but I really couldn’t tell what it was because it disappeared almost immediately, but it dawned on me that it probably had to be because Reyna once worked for her and her father.“I am sorry about getting Reyna to work for me,” I cleared my throat and said.The air between us was changing, and I really didn’t want it to, but then again, avoiding it wasn’t the solution to it.“It’s fine,” Alexa said, but I didn’t feel that way.I shook my head.“I don’t think I ever apologized for it,” I said.“What’s there to apologize for? If you didn’t hire her, someone else would have,” Alexa responded.She didn’t sound very pissed off,

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Missed, Twice

    MARKWhy in heaven’s name would Mona choose this moment to call?I really should have switched it off, but I didn’t even remember that I had a working cell phone after I saw Alexa walking down that stairs in that dress.Everything else in my head disappeared.And now, she chose this moment to call. I intentionally didn’t speak to Mona at all because I wanted this moment with Alexa to be special.She could have called me during hours of the day, but she didn’t until this very moment. As soon as I ended the call, I ensured that I turned off the phone and kept it in my pocket so that I wouldn’t have to deal with such distractions.Tonight was special.I didn’t want anything or anyone to ruin it.“I am so sorry about that, Alexa. It was someone from work, and I don’t want us to be distracted,” I lied.Gosh, I hated lying to Alexa.She would hate me if she found out about the lie and the big secret I was keeping from her, and I dreaded that as well because more than anyone else, I knew how

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   A Different Man

    ALEXA“Mark,” I said, the words coming out in a gasp of breath.Mark stopped and turned to me worriedly.“Is anything wrong?” Mark asked me. “You don’t like it?” He asked further.He was so worried that I could see it in his eyes.I shook my head.“No, Mark, it’s not that,” I responded.“Then what’s wrong?” I questioned further.Mark was so tender and careful that it warmed my heart. It was as though he was being extremely careful not to hurt me or break my heart.If only he had been like this from the very beginning…“There’s nothing wrong, Mark,” I said, making him confused. “It’s just that this is so beautiful,” I eventually said.And that was because my breath had been taken away.Mark sighed with deep relief knowing now that it wasn’t something he had done wrong.The interior was decorated in a cozy and an older pattern. It reminded me of when I was much younger.Although, unlike Mark, I didn’t get to spend time with any of my grandparents as they passed when I was a kid, but the

    ALEXAThe food was quite tasty, and I could rarely believe how much of it I was able to have, but even when I finished eating, Mark still didn’t arrive.“Well, how was it?” Alora asked, coming out of the kitchen.“This is really delicious, Alora,” I said, and meant the compliment. “You must thank t

    ALEXAI had to call Gina, and thankfully, she picked up almost immediately.“I got your text, Gina,” I said without wasting time.“I didn’t want to bother you with a call, just in case you are busy, that’s why I sent a text instead,” Gina said, sounding a little shaky.For a minute, I wondered if s

    ALEXAI had to take Mark’s offer because he was right; I needed to get thoughts of Donald and Noelle out of my head. Whatever was going on in Paris was not as important as my presence here in Toronto.“Is this inappropriate for where you want to take me?” I asked when Mark just kept staring at me a

    IVY“Are we going to ever have anything decent to eat in here?” I snarled at the server as the mashed potatoes landed on my plate.This was just frustrating.If I had other options, I honestly wouldn’t be eating the crap they kept serving in this facility.“Stop complaining,” she told me.“I never
