All Chapters of One Week Stand: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

It’s really true that time passes by so fast when you’re having fun or when you’re happy. Every day feels like a family day for us, especially when Zandrey doesn’t have to go to work. I didn’t feel this way when I was raising Andrei alone with the help of Dad and Mommy Miranda. It’s so different when you have someone helping you raise the kids.Every day, we discover new things about Andrew and also about Andrei. We get to witness them grow up, day by day. We saw Andrew’s first laugh, his first time crawling, his first time eating solid food, and so much more. And thankfully, we were able to record those moments. I realized just how important those pictures and videos are. At least we have something to look back on when we miss those moments.Yeah, it’s been months already. Time really flies so quickly. I want my kids to stay as young as they can, but we really can’t stop time, can we?And I can’t believe the baby I just gave birth to is turning one today. I feel like I’m going to get

I still don’t have an answer for Zandrey. I know the time he gave me is already quite long, but I’m just not ready to answer yet. There are still things I need to think about and consider. I don’t want to give an answer I’m not sure about. He deserves a firm answer from me. I just really need a little more time.But on the other side of my mind, I’m also afraid that he might get tired of waiting. I don’t want that to happen.It was already late in the evening. The kids were already asleep and in the other room. I was the only one still awake because I was finishing some work."Hi," Zandrey greeted as he entered the room. He had just come from work and had been at the hospital all day."Hey," I replied.I felt him kiss the top of my head before heading straight to the bathroom to shower.I tried not to be distracted by his presence. I needed to finish my work because I was going to accompany Andrei to school tomorrow. They have an event, and I wanted to be there. They’re going to perfo

My head was throbbing by the time the meeting ended. I could feel the anger radiating from my employees. It wasn’t enough that he harassed some of his coworkers, now he had to go and insult the entire company too.We’re not as big as other firms, yes. But we deliver good projects and have a decent number of clients. Many trust us. We have clients who keep coming back to us for their building plans, and I take pride in that.Everyone left on our team now is someone I trust. We no longer have room for people who only bring us headaches. We make sure to do our jobs well, and in return, management makes sure everyone is well-paid, appreciated, and protected.That’s why my head hurts so badly right now. I can feel the anger and concern from my people because of what Engr. Aragon did. We made plans on how we would counter those claims, and what else we should do next. Everyone pitched in ideas on how we can fix this.After that meeting came another, just between me and my dad. He was suppos

When you’re going through something, it feels like you are being tested in everything. Especially when so much depends on you. You begin to realize a lot of things, the big and small. You get to know yourself more, and you also discover who among your people are willing to help and stay with you during difficult times.Dad stayed with me during the interview and even helped brainstorm so we could get through this hurdle.Mommy Emily would always text or call me to remind me that I’m a great leader and a Mom. She always tells me that I’m good at both. She doesn’t know it, but her words really inspire me.Daisy and Dominic also visit and check up on me often. Daisy always says she’s just one call away. If I need a backup, she’d fly over to me immediately. Dom has been just as supportive—. He said he’ll try his best to help with whatever I need. Even Thaniel contacted me several times and offered help.And of course, Zandrey. He’s been an exceptional father and partner. Even though he’s

"Wow, are we that thirsty?" Daisy asked when she saw the bottles of alcohol I bought.I don’t really know what I want to drink. I just grabbed whatever. I just really want to get drunk, just for today.My brain is exhausted from my conversation with Engr. Aragon. Just when things were finally going smoothly, he had to stir things up. Now I can’t even tell them that I’ve agreed to marry Zandrey."Is it okay if we drink tonight?" I asked. She might be busy, or maybe she and Dominic had plans, and here I am suddenly showing up like this."I should be the one asking you that. Are you okay to drink tonight? Who's with the kids at home?""Mommy Emily is there with the nanny," I answered. "I already told them I might not come home tonight." I just really need this. Tomorrow, I’m back to reality again. Tomorrow, I’ll gather my strength to face my problems."Okay," Daisy murmured. "But before that, let’s eat, alright? I don’t want to get drunk right away. I want you to go first," she grumbled.
