Chris’s povI still couldn't believe what Nicole did this morning, she actually came to kiss me, who in her right senses would do a thing like that, to kiss her sister's husband or rather her late sister’s husband, that was really the height of it, I got into my car and drove off to work, I had seen Aubrey standing and looking at me perplexed by my reaction but I couldn't care less, I loved Nicole like a younger sister and ignored most of her mistakes but this one I really could not ignore it. She has done something she should never have, and that was to kiss me. How could Nicole ever think of kissing me, I shook my head and blocked out all the thoughts that were related to her in any way, that was definitely the end of it. Isabelle was the one reason we had a connection and now Isabelle is gone, there is nothing we need from each other anymore, I got to work and parked the car, getting into the hospital and a nurse came over to fill me in on everythi

Aubrey POV Today was the day Isabelle died! The day Chris lost his wife, now I understand why his mood changed suddenly yesterday night, I didn't know what to say, today would make it 4 years that his wife passed away and I know exactly how he must be feeling right now, I also lost my father about 9 years ago and everytime it was his death anniversary I always retracted back to my shell"Today makes it four years that she died" I say and Emilia nods "Chris loved Isabelle dearly that he didn't believe she died when she was pronounced dead, he couldn't attend the funeral because of the trauma he had to go through, it took us a while to convince him that she was truly dead, every year on her anniversary he would go missing and no one knows where he goes to, he comes back a day after, so we expect it this year too, and just like that he is gone with no traces" she says and I enveloped her hands in mine "He needs time, time heals all wounds including this, it might le

He looks at me as though I was sick "What do you mean you won't eat if I don't eat?" He asked me and I looked at him directly into his eyes "I WILL NOT LET EAT IF YOU DO NOT EAT, and you shouldn't forget I am pregnant" I say and he groaned "Why wouldn't you leave me, Aubrey?" He grumbled and I smiled sweetly at him "What's the fun of leaving you alone, come on I am hungry, and if you don't eat I will not be able to eat" I whined and held my baby bump "Are you that hungry, don't worry your dad will not purposely starve us, when he eats then we will be able to eat too and I am sure he won't take time, so hold on a bit, uh, your dad is a good person and will not starve us" I say, talking to my bump.I looked up at him to see him looking at me weirdly, he groaned and stood up, sitting down to eat the food I brought, I first bump the air *He is actually eating * "Stop hovering around me and go eat," He says and I pout *I didn't want to leave him* "Did you know June has been asking of you

Aubrey’s povI was on my way home from the hospital, Alex had totally ignored me all thorough and no, it doesn't hurt me or any of that, I am just saddened by the fact that he is an asshole but then it is what it is. I was deeply embarrassed by what I said last night that even I couldn't understand it, I told Chris that I like himWhat in the world prompted you to say that Aubrey!? Seeing him this morning made all the memories from last night rush back, his warm soft lips on mine, his strong hands encircling my waist, his teeth grazing my lips! Goosebumps appeared on my body just thinking about it, I absentmindedly touched my lips as a faint smile appeared on my face *I was gradually falling for Chris* I don't know if this is wrong or right to feel but I was falling for him hard, I always felt nervous when he is around me and my heart would skip a beat, I blushed like crazy and wanted to hear his voice at all times, I wanted him more than usual, I want him all th

I was beaming with happiness, still thinking about Chris taking me out on a date, he wants me to be his girlfriend! I couldn't believe it still, my inside was flipping that it might burst out of too much excitement "Why are you so happy?" Amanda asked me and I looked at her before shrugging, she gave me a weird look before going to her roomI love Amanda but, No! I am not saying anything yet until I am pretty sure this is not a dream eitherThe rest of the day went by and I bade goodnight to everyone, Chris didn't come out again and I guessed he was busy all through Now I am in bed, tossing and turning trying to wrap my head around the happenings of today especially the one where he told me he wants me to be his girlfriend, I was definitely not sleeping anytime soon and would continue to think about it. I got out of bed to drink water in the kitchen and adjusted my pajamasI walked downstairs and hoped to see Chris just like I used to,
