MARK

“We will give it our best,” I assured Mr. Porshia. “With your help, of course,” I added.

His warning was stern and deep. As for me, I really did not have a problem giving my very best, but my worry was Alexa.

She hated me and could barely stand me, and after hearing her story, I couldn’t blame her, but I really hoped that she had realized now that this had gotten more serious and that she would need to put away whatever hatred she now had for me so that this could work.

“About that, Mark,

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Lingering Lust

    ALEXAEverything seemed calm and peaceful between Mark and I, and a part of me wished that it would never end, but I also had to remind myself that there was nothing between us except for the fact that we were expecting a child together.If I wasn’t pregnant, Mark would probably be doing this with Mona.“Alexa,” Mark called, interrupting my thought.“Mm?” I responded, snapping out of my reverie.I had no idea why I was thinking about something like this in a moment like this.“What are you thinking about?” Mark asked me.“Why do you think I was thinking about something?” I asked in return.“You seemed lost in thought for a moment,” Mark responded. “What were you thinking about?” He asked again.And it was just at the tip of my tongue to ask him if he would have been here with me if I wasn’t pregnant and not with Mona. If he was doing all of this because he felt the need to act responsible because the thought was making me see his gestures as obligational.Granted, I knew that I pushed

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Recap Of The Year

    MARKEven though it seemed as though we were both enjoying the silence, I just wanted to talk to Alexa, so I cleared my throat and tried, hoping that she wouldn’t be upset about talking to me.“Um, do you mind telling me why you seemed somewhat upset when I got to the house?” I asked, gently breaking the silence between us.Something inside of me warned me that I might not like the response, but I had already asked.What if I was the reason Alexa was unhappy or upset?It might ruin the moment completely, just like it did before we went for the doctor’s appointment.“What?” Alexa asked.Her mind had been somewhere else, obviously, because she didn’t hear what I said, and I wondered if this was a chance for me to either stay quiet or repeat the question.“Do you mind telling me why you seemed upset when I got to the house?” I repeated against the warning sign in my head.“How do you mean?” Alexa asked, sounding confused.“You looked upset when you came down the stairs to meet me,” I res

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Hitched Breath

    MARKI held the flower behind me as Alexa walked down the stairs, and my breath hitched when I saw her descending the stairs.She looked absolutely stunning and I was reminded of how attracted I was to Alexa. It wasn’t just about the attraction, but also love.Nothing I felt for Alexa ever died.They had all been put to rest after she rejected me, but watching her right now and seeing that little bump in front of her, knowing that the baby growing fast inside of her belonged to me as well, everything I had felt for Alexa in the last couple of months came back to life.I could barely even breathe.And I didn’t stop staring at her until she got to where I stop in the living room.“Hi, Mark,” she said.Alexa had packed her hair in a neat bun, and it was just perfect.She didn’t have much makeup on except powder and lip gloss, but I realized that I wouldn’t have wanted her any other way. Even if Alexa’s hair was scattered and she applied nothing at all on her face, she would still look st

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   A Fool

    ALEXAI stood in front of the mirror and stared at my reflection.This was the only dress I could find that seemed appropriate and I hadn’t worn before. I didn’t want Mark to think that I wanted to impress him, and at the same time, I wanted to steal his breath away in a certain kind of way.“Ugh, but this feels really tight,” I complained.I could see a slight bump on the dress because it was really tight. I realized that if I wasn’t pregnant, it wouldn’t have been tight.It wasn’t until the moment that I placed Mark’s hand on my stomach that I started noticing the growing bump. I never paid attention to it until after that moment, and now, it just felt like every dress that wasn’t big was too tight.Four months.I touched my bump and felt my heart skip.“Yes,” I said as tears gathered in my eyes.It was as though I felt the presence of the baby the moment I did that.The doctor already said that the baby was forming well enough, and soon enough, it would be a very obvious bump, prob

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   A Different CEO

    MARK“I want you to send a memo to everyone that they are to close up by midday,” I instructed Reyna. “I want them to have time to spend with their families, and of course, the company will be on break for the next two days,” I added.“I am sure everyone is eager for a holiday,” Reyna said with a smile as she took down the note.“Yes, they have all been working all month,” I responded.Reyna was still smiling, and I was beginning to think that she might be smiling for some other reasons.“What’s with the smile on your face?” I asked her.“It’s just that your staff members have been talking about you,” Reyna said lightly.“Oh, really?” I asked, relaxing back into my seat. “I am being gossiped in my own company, isn’t it?” I added.But somehow, I wasn’t upset, or maybe it was because of Reyna’s smile.Somehow, I figured that if it was something bad, she wouldn’t be smiling.“Apparently, you are the CEO and there is no way they wouldn’t talk about you,” Reyna said.I nodded in agreement.

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   It Comes with The Pregnancy

    ALEXANoelle called me as early as possible.“Good morning, Alexa,” she said.“I didn’t think you would be up yet,” I responded even though I was excited that she had called.“Well, it’s the last day before the New Year, and Nelson’s family have a lot of things planned out,” Noelle told me.Since Noelle got there, she had been sounding happy and relaxed. As much as I wanted her to come back, she seemed very happy being there, and I just didn’t have the heart to keep pestering her for a return.Or maybe it was because I had Mark now.“Oh, I see,” I simply said.“Do you have anything planned?” Noelle asked me.“You know me, Noelle. I haven’t had anything planned for the New Year in ages,” I said deeply.“And I really wish that you did,” Noelle said sullenly. “I don’t like the fact that you are going to be by yourself and do nothing on New Year day or even the eve. You should have something to look forward to, Alexa. You are going to be a mum soon,” Noelle said, reminding me as though I
