“I thought you hate me.” I made a cheeky smile as I rested my chin on my palm, my elbow glued to the marbled countertop.“I still hate you, Brook. Nothing changed.” Atlas uttered sternly yet there was a small smile seeping through his lips.My smile grew wide, I angled my head more to get a better view of him from here. He was in the kitchen, cooking something that seemed savory, I could literally smell its taste and I’m already hooked. Plus, he’s wearing that pink cute apron again which just motivated me more to watch him. Heck, I don’t think I will ever get tired watching him act like a pro chef with his well-toned abs as an appetizer. Lancer’s words before popped in my mind like a timely visit. He’s indeed right when he told me about Atlas being a blessing in the morning.“Go on. Hate me more, Cameron.” I chuckled softly. He only flashed a smirk before his broad back face me as he resumed his cooking. “What are you cooking?” I asked just to make another topic.“Cordon Bleu.” He an

Panic rushed through me. With my full strength, I forcefully pushed the door to close it back, although his hand was reflexive enough to stop me from completely shutting it on his face.“S-Stay there! Don’t you enter!” I shouted with alertness. Atlas seems too shocked at my odd reaction. “What’s going on?” his eyes filled with confusion. He tried pushing the door open, taking over my force. My eyes frantically widened as I vigilantly leaned my body against it to strengthen the force on my side. “Just stay right there!” I snarled.“Okay, okay.” He said, surrendering. He also let go of the door, making me fully shut it close.Then I heaved a harsh sigh before I hastily jumped on the bed, drowned half of my body into the thick comfort, clutching it tightly just to make sure the bump’s hidden properly. Atlas knocked on the door but still opened it by himself anyway. He stood near the edge of the, watching me intently. I gulped as I tried to breath normally. He started stepping forward u

After two days, mom has been discharged. She’s required to take a rest for another few days while eating nothing but fruits and other healthy foods. Right after Trevor temporarily left their room, I took it as a chance to stay at my mother’s side until he comes back.“How’s your heart?” I asked, lips stretched for a half smile.“All good, with calm beats.” She answered with delight. I nodded then blew out a sigh afterwards. Now that she’s recovering, another batch of fear entered my system. When me and Atlas were exposed, it resulted her this. I’m afraid that one day… when the time comes and she’ll know about my pregnancy, it might cause her worse. Especially once she realized that the father of her grandchild was the son of her husband, the man who can never be mine.“You seem healthy. I really think it’s so stupid of me not to notice there’s something wrong with your body.” I said, remorse laced my tone. It was her turn to sigh as she held my face. I took a slice of tangerine and p

“You’re carrying a baby girl. A very healthy baby girl.” Dr. Lincoln repeated, more lively.“Oh, thank good heavens!” Hail exclaimed dramatically as she held my hand, her eyes were twinkling bright.Dr. Lincoln and I, laughed at her reaction. But no one can actually blame her. This is truly a heartwarming news for us, especially for me. Although I don’t have a problem if it’s a boy since that’s what we’re really expecting an hour before but to know that it’s a girl all along? I felt like I just won a lottery! Back then, my dream when I grew up was to have a baby girl cuz my parents couldn’t afford to give me a sibling and I felt so lonely, and I envied those who has sisters on their sides. Now, one of my dream just came true. I feel more than blessed. I’m elated. I never thought so much happiness could clench my heart. Happy is an understatement to what I feel. And I’m just glad I chose to keep this angel despite the uncertainties and endless fear. Hail and I were grinning from ear

About the what? Did I hear her say wedding?“Quickly now, Bev! They're waiting!”She didn’t even give me a chance to voice out my complaints as she hastily shut the door and left me being astounded. My original plan was to just stay in my room the whole day but now, it’s completely ruined. Two sides of my brain were fighting over what to do; one just wanted to play unbothered and let them wait there until dawn while the other kept on telling me to be matured enough and face them rather. I feel mixed up. I couldn’t weigh my emotions properly right now, everything’s frustrating me out! I just can’t believe mom has to involve in this, to make my life extra hard to live when she’s supposed to lighten it, of all people, she’s overqualified to understand me more because she’s my mother and I’m her only daughter. Just what else is there for her to disappoint me?In the end, I chose to do the latter as I decided to woman up. It took me ten minutes to finish my bath and another ten to get dre
