"What?" Melissa was stunned to see Aria and glanced at Chris."She's with Alex." He forced out the words and gazed at Melissa."Such a whore." She mumbled and pulled out a gun from her pocket aiming at Aria."You have a death wish, don't you? Stooping so low that you spread your legs for every man you see.""What the hell do you know about me huh?" Aria lashed out."I know that you're a whore, that's for certain." Melissa shrugged her shoulders, Chris had finally noticed the way Melissa dressed as an officer and tilted their head wondering if he was making things up."Why are you wearing this?" Chris asked her curiously."Long story short I'm an investigator." She gave him a quick smile before gazing at Aria who was also shocked at the discovery."So all this while you used working with him as a cover-up?" Aria smirked. "Wouldn't it be shameful if they knew how you got pregnant?""That is none of your concern!" Chris raised his voice at Aria."Don't you dare raise your voice at me!" S
Weeks had passed since the whole incident and Chris was finally getting better although had to walk around with a walking stick to aid his movement, on the other hand, Melissa was still admitted to the hospital and still unconscious.It had saddened him to know that she lost the child but thankfully she was still alive. Chris walked into the ward with fresh flowers to put in her room so she could have a nicely scented room."Good morning princess." He smiled at Melissa laying in the bed and the only thing he got back was the beeping machine noises that assured him she was right.He walked towards the flower vase replaced the old ones with the new ones he had just brought and walked to the chair to sit beside Melissa's bed. "Wale up soon okay?" He gently lifted her hand and placed a gentle kiss on it. Her skin had gotten paler and when he had brought it to the doctor's concern, he was told that it was because she was still unconscious and when she woke up, she would get back to herself
Chris had taken Melissa on a vacation trip so they could enjoy their moment together and get to know each other more. He also took it as a time for her to take a break from all the stress that had happened to her."Aren't these gifts a little too much?" Melissa pouted gaznng at the mirror admiring the silver dress he had bought for her."You deserve the world honey don't worry too much about the worth of the gift I'm giving you, after all the most expensive thing you've given me is your heart and my money can't be enough to buy that," Chris said as he caressed her lips placing a kiss on it."Don't flatter me." She looked away shyly, he gently pulled her close to him and looked away and gazed at her."I mean every word I tell you…. Don't for once doubt it." He leaned on her chest and smiled. "I love you too much to play with your heart."."What do you think about going out for dinner later this evening?" He asked gazing at her curiously. "It's okay if you don't feel like it." He added.
Melissa stared at her wedding gown with joy plastered on her face. She had begun preparing for her wedding and was more than excited, she had asked her friend Daphne to come help her out in choosing her wedding gowns since she could not make up her mind.Cnrid had recommended that we go to a luxury "Isn't this perfect?" She turned around to ask her friend Daphne."Sure, it suits your sling but I feel it may be too heavy for you to move around," Daphne suggested while staring at the dress. "Why not try another?"The staff beside them pointed to a series of other options to choose from but Melissa was confused and didn't know which one to take."Have you found the one you like?" Chris's voice erupted in the room and they turned to gaze at him. Melissa gazed at him illuminating her face with a smile, she walked towards him and embraced him in a warm hug."Not yet, I still haven't made up my mind on which one to choose." She pouted her lips gazing at the numerous gowns available. "Why do
The morning dawned with a delicate shine of sunlight, promising warmth for that day. The sunlight peered through the curtains casting a soft glow on Melissa's face as she slept. Gradually sensing the heat and bright light from the sun, she blinked her eyes open, adjusting herself into a comfortable position on the bed. The space beside her was empty, Chris nowhere in sight. "Maybe he's working in his study." She muttered to herself, trying to sit upright. Chris now worked from home because of Melissa. He wanted to make sure that she never got to stress herself during the last few months of her pregnancy, and that he was always there whenever she needed him. He only went to the office if the situation needed itTwisting her neck sideways to relieve them of it's stiffness, her hand instantly went to her protruding belly, rubbing gentle circles around them as a smile played on her lips. It felt like yesterday when they were unsure of their love, but now a year had passed. Gradually
Chris never thought his wife would cheat on him. They had been married for three years and they were always passionate about each other. Or at least, that's what he thought. But the tutu shattered his illusions. In the morning, Chris received a mysterious black package. He examined the package in his hands, racking his brain as he tried recalling when he had ordered something but didn't seem to recall, although his wife shopped a lot she never bought anything under his name which made him more confused.He tore open the wrappings of the package and took out a skirt that had been neatly folded yet it didn't seem to be new as it was wrinkled, he examined the wrinkled white skirt smudged with red lipstick that his wife often wore but thought it was part of the design until he touched it and noticed it was still quite fresh as though it was done recently. "Is this a joke?" He frowned as he continued to examine the shirt, he noticed an embroidery flower and instantly recalled seeing hi
Chris lit up a cigarette crossing his legs as he stared at the package box which had no name of the sender but only a number which he had tried calling yet it was out of service, Countless thoughts ran through his mind that this could either be a coincidence or an accident, there's a probability that his wife wasn't cheating and he had heard the man in the phone wrong. Could it be that it was the man who sent it or his wife who knew of the affair or there could be someone jealous of his wife?"Why can't I get an answer." He mumbled to himself in an irritated tone, just then his phone began to ring and he stared down at it hoping it would be the number he had tried dialing but it turned out to be his wife's colleague Susan. He stared at his phone for a while before picking up the call, placing the phone on his ear, and removing the cigar from his mouth, he leaned his head back on the couch listening to whatever she wanted to say."Hey, Chris." She cheered from the other end of the line
"Hello, babe!" She chimed"Sorry the call got interrupted, I bumped into someone while running making me drop my phone…. And it broke." His wife explained with her sweet charming voice, when she previously used this tone to talk to him it always melted his heart, and right now it irritated it more than anything, it was as though every feeling he had for her evaporated."Why does it feel this way?" He thought to himself.He found it hard to believe the words she just spat, his lips curved into a wry smile that had pain seethed underneath."Oh really?" He asked doubtfully, he knew she was going to frown at the question because he never really questioned her answers ever since they were married because they never hid anything from each other."What do you mean by that?" Aria asked him, noticing how his tone was doubtful of her words. "Do you feel I'm lying?" Her voice sounded pained as though she had been stung by his words but right now he didn't seem to care, he was in a whirlpool of c
