Mag-log inMARKHow long would Brent be away for?He didn’t say how long he was going to be out of Paris for, and silly me, I hadn’t thought to ask him before he left. Now, he wasn’t reachable.“Don’t you know I need you right now?” I asked myself as though Brent could hear me.Alexa already gave me the grace of one month, and I wanted to do everything remotely possible to do her bidding so that she would agree to marry me.“If in the next one month, nothing happens that makes me hurt or upset, and I find out that you are not hiding anything from me and have been honest with me all along.”One month…Could I keep Mona from ruining things for one month?Maybe I could, but in the next one month, the possibility of Mona being able to terminate the baby would have been tinier. Pregnancy grows every single day and I didn’t want to take the chances of Mona not being able to get rid of it.Even if I was able to keep Mona out of the way, the fact still remained that I didn’t want to have a child with he
MARK“Why are you still here, Mona?” I asked her without bothering about being hostile.And to think that she had actually passed the night here.I began to worry about Mona’s persistent presence.Now that things seemed to be going good between Alexa and me, it meant that she could show up here at any moment, and I would really love to see the day that Alexa would come to my house, but if Mona kept showing up like this and spending the night, Alexa might run into her.I didn’t want Mona to ruin what Alexa and I were building for anything in the world.I had lost Alexa twice now. I wasn’t willing to lose her again.“Good morning again, Mark,” Mona said as she continued with her breakfast.I also noticed that she was wearing one of my shirts.“Mona, I don’t appreciate this,” I stated stiffly.“It’s the first day of the year, Mark. I don’t think we should be arguing,” Mona said.I stood there, not knowing how best to approach this situation. I couldn’t get a restraining order because she
MARK“If in the next one month, nothing happens that makes me hurt or upset, and I find out that you are not hiding anything from me and have been honest with me all along,” I repeated the same words to Vector as I drove back to my house two hours later.I didn’t leave without making slow love to Alexa again.And if I didn’t really have to, I wouldn’t have left her side. It took me every ounce of self-control to pull myself out of her bed and leave, and right now, I couldn’t even wait to get back.“She said that?” Vector asked me, deeply stunned.“Yes, she did,” I responded.“What was your response?” Vector asked me.“I accepted, of course,” I answered. “Did I have another choice?” I asked Vector rhetorically.“Mark, you are playing with fire,” Vector told me.“I know, Vector. Don’t you think I do?” I asked him exasperatedly.“She is trying to trust you again and give you another chance, and we both know that if she finds out that you are actually lying to her and hiding something as
ALEXA“Good morning, Alexa,” Mark greeted as he brought the tray of breakfast close to me.I tried to smile.“Remember not to think deeply about anything. You are simply using him to satisfy yourself and get what you want from him,” a voice in my head reminded me.I knew I was a jealous lover, and no matter how hard I tried to pretend, I would still care and it would hurt me to know that Mark was seeing someone else, especially that woman, even after telling me that he had broken up with her.“It’s not like you two are getting back together, so don’t allow yourself to be bothered by it,” the voice added.Mark did ask me to marry him, but that could have been a spur of the moment thing for him, and even if it wasn’t, I didn’t think I wanted to be married to Mark again after everything he put me through for five years.“Alexa,” Mark called, making me to snap out of my thought.“Yes,” I responded.“You were lost in thought,” Mark said.I shook my head.“Don’t worry about it, Mark,” I sai
ALEXAI called Noelle the moment I realized that Mark was gone and out of earshot. When Noelle picked up almost immediately, I was relieved.“I was just about to call you, Alexa, but I was worried about waking you up,” Noelle told me.“I am up now,” I said.Then I flushed when I realized that a few minutes ago, Mark Ronaldo had been inside me. Of course, I had been up and getting sexually satisfied.Even the thought of it was making me aroused again, but it wasn’t the reason I called Noelle.“Did you sleep good last night?” Noelle asked me worriedly.I understood that she was worried about me because it was still too early for me to be up.“Yes, I did. It was the best night I have had in a really long time, Noelle,” I said and I meant it.“Wow, that is good to hear, Alexa, and it is good to say happy New Year, then,” Noelle said.“Yes, Noelle, happy New Year,” I responded with a smile.“I wish I was in Paris and not far away,” Noelle said.For the very first time, I didn’t wish the sa
MARKI was about leaving the room when I remembered that I wanted to call the doctor.The sex between Alexa and I was getting more and more intense. Every second with her meant arousal. It was as though I could barely control myself around her.Even as I enjoyed having sex with her and wanted to always be inside of her, I really needed to be sure that I wasn’t harming the baby.So, I had to go back and take my phone.On the way downstairs, I called the doctor.Thankfully, he picked up.“Good morning, Mark Ronaldo,” he greeted.“Did I wake you up?” I asked because I knew that it was still very early.The fact that he was Alexa’s doctor didn’t mean that he shouldn’t be given some space to rest. Most people would be with their families this morning, and it was expected that even as a doctor, he would also be with his loved ones.“No, you didn’t. I have been up for over thirty minutes now and I am about heading to the hospital already,” the doctor answered, much to my relief. “Happy New Y
IVY“Hey, Ivy, aren’t you going to make a phone call today?” Lady asked me when I passed by her desk from the dining room.Again, I had had to sit through the excruciating section of eating tasteless meals with a room filled with people who were mentally disoriented.It was sickening, and sometimes
MARKAlexa was being unnecessarily stubborn and hostile, and she had made me say things that I hadn’t even meant to say.Of course, I freaking cared that she was with Donald Shell. I would have cared if he was another man, because deep down, a tiny part of me wanted Alexa, but somehow, what was sup
MARKI couldn’t stop thinking about how to go about it and the next line of action to take, but one thought kept persisting.Alexa was the best male designer in the entire Paris. This wasn’t only about the fact that she had grown successful over the last couple of months, but the fact that her wor
ALEXAMark had taken me completely by surprise. I had expected him to cower at what I just said and plead, but instead, he had been unflinching.What was going on that no one was telling me about?I continued to think about it even while I sat by the side of my dad in his ward.“Alexa, what is runn
