ALEXA

I arrived at my fashion store in the morning, and the first thing I saw on my desk was a bunch of flowers and a short note from Donald Shell.

I was barely even done reading through it when Noelle entered without knocking.

“Good morning, Alexa,” she greeted. Then her eyes caught the flowers, and her eyes widened with delight. “Are these from Donald?” She asked with hopeful anticipation.

“Yes, they are,” I responded drily, but Noelle was too excited about them to even notice my mood.

“They are beautiful!” She screeched in delight. “You have to be the luckiest man in the whole of Paris!” She added gleefully.

Contrary to how Noelle was feeling, I was getting really fed up with the flowers, and I was already concluding that I would have to give this to my secretary because I didn’t know what to do with them or where to put them.

“Isn’t that right?” I said dully.

Noelle took her seat without being asked.

“You haven’t told me all about Toronto,” she said, urging me.

I looked at Noelle,

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   A New Catch

    MARKI resumed work as early as possible, and after interviewing two more persons but finding none of them worthy, I gave up.“Damn it,” I said to myself.I pulled out my cell phone and dialed a number. She picked up almost immediately.“Good morning, Mr. Mark,” Reyna greeted.“Is this too early to call knowing that you no longer go to work?” I asked considerately. “You might be taking a rest,” I added.“No, Mr. Mark, I have been up,” she answered. “Is there something I can do for you?” She asked me politely.“You might not know this, but I fired my secretary and got her arrested for teaming against me,” I said, getting right to the point.“I am sorry about that,” she apologized.I waved my hands off dismissively as though Reyna was right here and she could see me.“You don’t have to be sorry about it, Reyna. She is only facing the consequences of her actions,” I responded. And then I went on with what I was trying to say.“I have been interviewing a couple of potential candidates, b

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Loneliness and Death

    ALEXAWhen I got to the door, I pushed it open and it obeyed me. Maybe I didn’t think that it would because I was too weak to even apply any form of force.I was weak emotionally and physically.All I wanted to do was get to my dad’s bedroom, take out all his clothes, lay them on his bed, and curl up right there. That was exactly what I had done when my mum passed; it helped me to stay sane for a while. Hopefully, it would do the same now.Or maybe it wouldn’t because of the shame and guilt I was feeling deep inside. It was eating me up so badly that I could hardly breathe.“I understand the terms. You have laid them out before,” a voice said.I stopped, trying to catch the voice and where it was speaking from.“You know I have been nothing but obedient and diligent,” the voice said again, and this time around, I was able to catch the voice.It was Clara talking and the voice was coming from the aisle downstairs.At first, I had thought that it was the kitchen, but knowing Clara, she

    ALEXA“It’s a little late, ma’am,” Shirley told me when she saw that I was ready to leave the hospital.“I should be saying that to you, Shirley,” I responded tightly.My heart was still in chaos.“You are my secretary, and it is way past your closing time,” I added by reminding her.She stayed quiet for a little bit before speaking again.“I don’t mind being here,” Shirley said. “And I don’t mind spending the night with you…just in case you need anything,” she added, offering carefully.I shook my head.“Not to sound ungrateful, Shirley, but there will be no need for that,” I responded firmly.And Shirley knew that at this point, she couldn’t force her way into anything.The door opened and the doctor walked into the ward, just as we were about to leave, and he became instantly surprised.“I thought to come and check up on you and ensure that you are resting,” he said worriedly. “Where are you going?” He asked.“Home,” I responded.“But I haven’t discharged you yet,” he said.“Only t

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Guilt. Regret. Shame

    ALEXAI felt the presence of people, or maybe someone around me before I opened my eyes, and I really wished I didn’t.I thought I was dead.I wanted to be dead.“Thank goodness you are awake,” the doctor said.My eyes were still a little blurry, but I could see the nurse standing somewhere in the ward, along with Shirley, and the pitiful look in their eyes was evident.“Is he truly dead?” I asked.My heart was so heavy that I wondered how I was able to even speak. While I stayed unconscious, that was the only thing I could think about, and by God, I really wanted to be dead.“Yes, Alexa,” the doctor answered pitifully.Streams of tears flowed down my cheeks and I didn’t bother with controlling them. The tears were nothing compared to the ache and emptiness in my heart. I never thought I would ever have to experience this sort of tragedy.“We really tried to resuscitate him, but his system was failing, and that was due to the fact that his heart was already weak, even before the heart

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   The Worst That Could Happen

    ALEXA“Oh, you are awake,” the nurse said as she walked into my ward.Even though I couldn’t see outside of the window right now, I knew that it was dark already. Somehow, I had dozed off after seeing the news, but it had been one of the worst sleeps I had had recently.From running away from Donald Shell who wanted to destroy me by all means to nosy press who wanted to get information. Between the two of them, I couldn’t tell which plagued me more, but I was just glad and relieved to be awake.“Yes, I am,” I answered. “What about my dad?” I asked almost immediately.The moment I opened my eyes, I thought about him with deep worry. She had told me that he was still in surgery, but that was hours ago.“He is out of surgery,” she answered with a small smile.And that was enough to tell me that he wasn’t dead.“Did he make it?” I had to ask.Regardless of the smile she gave me, I was still too worried not to ask.“Yes, he did,” she answered.“I want to see him right now,” I said, trying

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   We Can't Be Friends

    MARK“Mona, what are you doing here?” I asked Mona, not bothered by how harsh I sounded. Mona looked slightly crestfallen.“I don’t know you to be hostile, Mark,” she responded.“How did you even find my house?” I asked her.“You are quite popular in this city, Mark, so finding out where you stay is pretty much not a big deal,” she answered.Still, I wasn’t comfortable with seeing Mona at my house.“What are you doing here?” I asked her again.“I came to say hello to an old friend,” Mona answered. “Is there something wrong with that?” She asked.“I didn’t give you an invitation,” I responded tightly.“Which is even disheartening because I thought that when I called and informed you that I had moved back to Paris, you would have showed some form of interest to even bond a little,” Mona said.I became nearly speechless.Mona being here wasn’t something I had ever thought I would be having to deal with.Back in Toronto when I went to business school, we did have a fling.
