IVY

I reared my head back in shock at her direct statement.

“Excuse me?” I wasn’t sure I heard her right.

Or maybe it wasn’t just about the words but the monstrous way with which she had uttered them.

“You heard me right, Ivy, so I suggest you get right ahead and start doing the laundry,” she responded firmly. “If you start now and are fast enough, you should be done in six hours,” she informed me.

Was that supposed to make me feel better?

“You want me to wash all these sheets and linens that h

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   A Wedding To Plan

    ALEXA“Have you lost your mind, Alexa?!” Noelle asked me, her voice almost bringing the roof down.I swallowed hard and turned to her.“No, I haven’t,” I responded tightly.“Then what was the meaning of that madness you just pulled off?” Noelle asked me.“Madness?” I asked Noelle, surprised at the name she gave it.“Yes, Alexa!” Noelle said.She was so upset and confused at the same time that she couldn’t bring her voice down.One minute she was holding me close so that I wouldn’t pass out or hurt myself because we all thought that Mark was affected by the blizzard and that he might be dead, and the next minute, she was raising her voice.But then again, I really couldn’t blame Noelle.A part of me didn’t even know what I had just done.“Weren’t you the one who asked me to marry Mark?” I asked Noelle defensively.“Yes, I did, but I didn’t ask you to walk up to him and say that you wanted to marry him the minute you saw him for crying out loud,” Noelle answered hotly. “And this very we

    MARKFor a moment, I was completely speechless. I just stood in front of Alexa like a zombie and stared at her.I couldn’t see or hear anything else.Reyna and Noelle sort of dissolved into the background, leaving just Alexa and me at the moment.“What is going on?” I asked Alexa when I was eventually able to get my mouth to produce some words.“Did you hear what I just said?” Alexa asked me in return.“Yes, yes, I did, but...” I started, sounding very confused because I was actually very confused, but Alexa interjected, cutting me short.“But what?” She asked impatiently.“But I don’t understand,” I blurted out.“I will marry you, Mark,” Alexa repeated with the same firmness, certainty, and confidence as she had done some seconds ago.“I still...” I started, but this time around, my voice trailed off.It was as though I had walked into a place that I had never been to before and everything happening was strange.I spent the last twenty-four hours worrying my head about Alexa and bein

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Welcome Back Declaration

    MARKWe stayed longer in the sky than I had anticipated, and for whatever reason the pilot gave; I couldn’t even recall because I was too impatient and pissed off to even listen to him, but it didn’t prepare for the delay I would encounter when we eventually landed.“What the heck is going on?!” I barked at everyone and no one in particular.“Mr. Mark Ronaldo, please, calm down,” one of the senior airport staff members told me.I glared at him so angrily that he had to take a step back from me.“I am sorry, Mr. Mark,” he apologized.“You better be,” I retorted.But I still needed an explanation to what was going on. It seemed like the airport here wasn’t suddenly functioning any longer, and it made me wonder why all of this was happening.First, I got delayed at that damn company. What was supposed to have lasted for only an hour took more than three hours, and then the blizzard came, keeping me stuck at their airport all night. It was even worse because my cell phone had been switche

    IVYDinner tasted better than I expected. I watched him kill the animal that he had hunted down and prepare it in a way that I hadn’t seen before, and by the time he was done, I realized that it was just like what I had ordered before in a restaurant.Only that this time around, it was way tastier.I ate until I had my fill, and even when I was done, I still ate some more because I didn’t know the next time I would get something like this to eat. The last thing I even wanted to think about were those half-cooked vegetables of his.“Dinner was delicious,” I found myself complimenting him after we were done eating, but he merely grunted in response.He went to the kitchen and tidied up.As I watched him, I kept wondering if he really enjoyed being here all alone or he was stuck here because he didn’t have a choice.What if the Mafias weren’t after him? Would he have settled for a place like this?As far as I knew, no one in his right mind would ever choose this sort of solidarity over t

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   The More Reason To Be Worried

    ALEXAOne of the cops drove us to Vector’s house. While Reyna sat in front, Noelle and I sat at the back.Noelle held me closely as though I would collapse if she didn’t. Well, I couldn’t even tell her not to because I needed someone close to me right now.“You have to try to stay calm, Alexa,” Noelle told me in a calm and low voice. “I am sure that this is just a mix up and he is fine,” Noelle added.Even though Noelle was worried and scared as well; although not even close to how I was feeling, she also seemed calm at the same time.Well, I didn’t expect her to be this frantic.She wasn’t the one in love with Mark Ronaldo and carrying his child, and she certainly didn’t know what it felt like to lose a loved one...that was probably why she couldn’t understand Nelson’s grief; not that I would ever say that to her anyway.But I have lost two people I loved deeply.First, it was my mum. The pain didn’t cut deep because I was very young when she passed, but till this very moment, I stil

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   The Fear Of Losing Him

    ALEXA“What happened?” I asked Reyna for the umpteenth time.“Alexa, you need to calm down because of the baby,” Noelle told me with deep care and worry because she could already see how agitated I was.My chest was going up and down too fast.The thought of Mark getting hurt scared the heck out of me.“Reyna, please, you don’t have to say anything right now,” Noelle told Reyna.I swirled around and faced Noelle.“Why would you tell her that?” I asked Noelle, my anger rising even though she was only looking out for me. “Didn’t you hear what she said about Mark missing?” I demanded from Noelle again.“I heard that, Alexa, but we cannot have that handled if you are like this,” Noelle answered. “For heaven’s sake, think about the health of your baby. The doctor did tell you not to get worked up, especially emotionally,” she added.I didn’t like Noelle’s words even though they were right.Anyway, I forced myself to take quick deep breaths, and when I was done, I turned to Reyna. I was sti

    MARK“Are you nervous?” Vector asked me.“No, I am not,” I told him.“But you didn’t go to your company today, and that can raise the same suspicion that we are trying to avoid,” Vector said.“I already called Mr. Devon and told him that I was feeling a little under the weather, and that I wouldn’t
