Jennet stared back at him without feeling intimidated by the closeness between them. She spoke, “Last night, I said you have to prove that choosing you is the right choice. So, you have to make me believe in the choice that I made. Also, I won’t scorn upon you for telling the truth about yourself.” She was calm and there was no restraint in her tone. She was serious!Hue chuckled. Her calmness made him want to bully her in bed. He wanted to turn her serious gaze into a lustful gaze just like how she was being submissive last night. He wanted to re-create the moment from last night!Groaning playfully while chuckling, he said, “Honey, when you said it like that, I feel like taking you to bed already. How about we skip this conversation and get to bed right away?” He slumped his upper body on her thighs with his face pressing against her lap. "Hmm, it smells nice..." He inhaled deeply. Jennet flinched as her face flushed red. On reflex, she pushed him away. The poor man rolled down

But, to do that, she must clear the misunderstanding that Luca had and she had to reject his affection because she had made up her mind to accept Hue into her life.However, she was conflicted if Luca could handle the rejection like how she hoped because, in the first place, she had poor communication skills. She feared that a poor choice of words could harm him. Talking about something on a personal level put her under pressure because she tends to think about his reaction. For some people, rejecting someone is as easy as eating a pie. But, from the point of view of the other person who receives the rejection, it is different because it is already hard work to find the right time and to summon tremendous courage to step up to confess their feelings. If they are not well prepared for the outcome, they might lose their motivations, lose the hope in love or they might blame themselves and then may delve into self-harming or the other way around.Luca maybe

Elaine said nothing as she only nodded her head. It was no use to bicker with mama because it was improper to keep bickering with an adult. Also, it was because she had to abide by the rule set within the household; children of the Lockhart in Pencia must never go against their parents.Rosella squeezed Elaine’s hands with a sad face. “Elaine, do you think mama is being reasonable for trying to find happiness for your sister? Are you unhappy with the man that mama chose for you?”“I am happy, mama. The man you chose for me is the one whom I loved for a very long time. But,” Elaine hesitated to speak. “…must it be someone else for my sister? She had suffered enough since her childhood. She-”Rosella let go of her hands. “No matter what happened, your sister will not get any blessing from us if she chose that man. Also, I doubt she could find a decent man out there. The outside world is full of thorns and poisons.”“Mama…”“I believe we’re

Jennet watched as he pranced around, doing some weird dances where he jumped then flapped his arms like a chicken, tiptoed while twirling, clapped here and there, and so on. For sure, the dance was hilarious to watch. It was something that she had never seen in her life.If he was doing some kind of ritual dance, she would not know.“Okay, that’s it for today. Let’s get to bed now because tomorrow, we’re going to get married!” Jennet clapped her hands as if she was telling her kid to sleep early to get ready for school.Hue joined her in bed after she put on some clothes after he failed to ‘dress’ her. As he lay on the bed, smiling from ears to ears, wondering about the upcoming tomorrow, he asked, “Honey, I’m wondering, is there any law that protects the right of a god in this world?”Jennet pulled the blanket up to her chest. “I don’t think there’s any. God are a mighty existence so; I don’t think humans can protect them because they a

Since Hue was running high on fever, Jennet decided to tend to him at home. So, they checked out of the hotel and headed straight to the villa. By the time they arrived, Hue collapsed in the living room. He moaned in pain and his breath became heavier. “Hue!” Jennet panicked. She sat on the floor and supported his head on her lap. Her face turned pale when his body emitted steam again. His temperature rose once again! Hue grimaced on her lap. Tears rolled down the corner of his tightly shut eyes. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry," he whispered, as if grieving over something. Sweats drenched his forehead. Jennet felt her eyes watered when her heart was tinged by an unknown sadness. His words brought familiarity to her which made her feel sadder. The sadness she had in her heart, felt like a longing that she couldn't understand. She had no idea why such longing resurfaced or why she even had such longing in the first place.
