Chapter 13
His cherry lips compelled me to stare at them. While gazing at that, I swallowed. Elyse, what are you thinking? What?! Are you crazy?
I soon got up as well as he did.
I responded, "A-All right, let's eat." We simply ate in silence while together.
I inquired, "Sir Xander, do you have a swimming pool here?"
I reply to myself, "Just look about here in case you find what you're looking for."
I turned to him and said, "Pff..." while simply shaking my head. Am I mishearing?
Why does it seem like I heard him laugh before? Maybe for a while, I was just nuts.
After we finished eating, I scrubbed the plate once more before walking around his property and spotting a small but serviceable pool.
Wow, swimming there must be wonderful. Can I get in the tub? I suppose I should ask Sir Xander if it's feasible. When I went to see Sir Xander, the door to his room was not locked, so I went inside right away. I didn't see him, but I assumed he was in the bathroom based on the sound of the running water.
I was just sitting on the edge of his bed when I simply had to lie down because it was so comfortable. Why, oh why, isn't my bed like this? Oh, how unjust that is! Why is that the case, huh?
I observed him emerge from the bathroom as it slowly opened. The realization that he was naked stunned me.
I moaned to myself, unable to stare into his eyes directly, and said to myself, "Oh my god, he's truly circumcised."
I asked him if it was okay for me to take a bath in the pool, and he didn't respond. "If you ask me why I'm here, It's because I want to take a bath, but in the pool." I said.
I enthusiastically said, "Silent means yes, so thank you, Sir Xander!" and rushed out of his chamber.
I returned to the pool and undressed, only keeping my bra and underwear on.
Suddenly, it came to mind that Daren and I had bathed in a pool. Hayst! Elyse, there you are again! Please don't worry about him anymore! The only person that is making themselves miserable is you!
"Forget about him, okay? Move on when you have time Elyse." I urge for myself.
I was the first to stand up as my phone started ringing. When it rang in ninth grade, I answered it right immediately and realized it was one of my classmates.
"Hello? Oh, why did you call?" I greeted.
He started to say something, but I cut him off: "Elyse, we have an event next-next week."
"What?"
[Will you join us for the reunion?]
He couldn't see me, but I responded, "Huh? I don't know. I'll just call if I want."
[All right, Daren agrees to tell you, by the way.]
[You're ridiculous, Daren and Elyse are already apart, right?]
When I overheard a different voice on the phone. I chuckled because I seemed to recognize the yum girl.
I exclaim. "Are you two still together?"
[Who?]
We also had a brief conversation with some of my classmates, which was enjoyable because they were some of the students I used to get along with in high school.
My previous classmates are missed. I never experienced bullying in high school since even the bullies liked me. Not to brag, but I had a thing for them back then, and despite the fact that they knew I was poor, they were okay.
I was intending to head straight to the bedroom after taking a bath in the pool, but I stopped in the kitchen first since I was thirsty. I suddenly recalled my clothes in the car as I drank water.
I quickly drank some water before going to my room. To see what I could wear today, I browsed through my wardrobe.
Since I'm already inside the house and Sir Xander doesn't even care, I'm not sure if I should wear a bra or not.
Because I didn't think I would gamble on wearing shorts today, I just wore pajamas over a flimsy, oversized white t-shirt that showed off my nipples.
I left the room after getting dressed, and I'm now in front of Sir Xander's room. I called out, "Sir Xander? May I come in?" but I didn't wait for his response because I wasn't sure if he wouldn't answer either, and if I did, I might get stuck for a few more minutes.
I looked about, thinking to myself, "Sir? Where is he?"
I went to the window and peered in because I hadn't seen Xander when I had looked in the bathroom. I noticed him washing his car outside.
You just arrived! Why did he not even announce that he was coming out? The fact that his home was completely dark at first led me to believe he didn't want the sun to shine on him.
I was about to leave when I suddenly remembered something I had seen earlier that looked like a gun. I went to his cabinet and opened it. Nothing, hmm? His clothing is all I can see.
Maybe I was just laughing since he couldn't have a gun before. Tsk, I wonder what he's going to do with the gun.
I just walked out of the house and the room. I watched him as I washed the car.
There are secrets, Xander muses, nodding. I will soon find out. I want to get to know him better and I want to know all of his secrets. But if I just ask him a question, it will probably take us years, so it might take a while. Why does it take him a few additional minutes or hours to respond to my queries?
I walked up to him and said, "Sir Xander, did you see inside the dress I was wearing yesterday?" As usual, there was no response, and as a result, I grew bored.
I was about to open the door when he said, "All right if you don't want to answer, I'll just peek inside your car." I froze at what he said.
"I throw it in the trash."
"What?" I questioned.
"I trashed it."
I couldn't help but tell him, "F**k you," and he gave me a serious look. I approached him more closely, and as he began to back away, I cornered him in the back of the automobile.
I added genuinely, "Just attempt to throw my things away again, and you'll die," and I fixed him with my gaze.
Annoying! Although he is my boss, he does not have the authority to discard my belongings. If it belongs to me, it belongs to me; if it belongs to him, it belongs to him. That's it, really!
Hayst! You're annoying, so I'm going now. Tsk. I'll ignore you.
I crossed my arms as I sat on the sofa out of frustration. I glanced at my phone because it started to ring unexpectedly.
I didn't answer it because it was only an unknown number and I was annoyed, but a short while later it rang again.
"What do you want?!"
[This is me, ija]
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Ferrer, I misunderstood who you were."
[It's alright. I called because I learned what happened to your daughter, and as a result, I paid the hospital's fees.]
My heart seemed to immediately light up after hearing what Mrs. Ferrer had said.
Contrary to her son Xander, she is nice! He has such a nasty temper that his expression is always grave.
"Mrs. Ferrer, thank you so much; by the way, how did you get my number? "
[I spoke to her on your cousin Mindy's behalf. I'm currently with your daughter at the hospital here. I brought my nephew's son along so we could converse and play.]
I find it difficult to accept what ma'am said. Due to how quickly things are moving, I even found a job the other day. Yesterday was my first day, and today is my second.
It's a little strange, but we are grateful that Mrs. Ferrer entered our lives.
She's delighted to say. "Your daughter is so cute, like you."
[Currently speaking with my nephew's son, they appear to be in good spirits and can understand one another. The two of them appear to have chemistry, so if you're just visiting, you can remark that they look cute.] She continued.
"Let's not discuss such topics right now because my daughter is still little."
Elizabeth will turn 11 years old soon! I don't mind if she finishes school before finding a boyfriend or even when she is 18 as long as it remains her top focus. I'm afraid; I don't want her to be like me.
I prioritize my studies, so Daren and I. We conversed till we finally simply kissed, and that was our first kiss after being married, however, alcohol has a different effect. I no longer drink as a result. I haven't wanted to taste anything since that day, not even wine.
[Hello, Ija. Are you still there?]
"Yes," replied Ferrer.
[How are you with my son, by the way? Is he alright? Is he currently eating well?]
When I tell her the truth, she says. "Uhm, it took me a while to wake him up."
[Oh my! It took a while for my son to awaken. Please wait a moment.]
"It's ok, that's part of my work too."
We also had a brief conversation with Mrs. Ferrer. She told me she was quite content with my daughter and that she had wished for a grandson or daughter, but that her son had never asked for any of them since he didn't care.
I was helpless, so I just watched TV. I couldn't stop laughing as I watched till it was over-- how lovely! I suppose I should watch that again. Is there a second part?
I simply scratched my head and chose the next option while focusing on three people in the same room: two women and a man.
Is she? Is she the person you exchanged for me? Really! John, are you also anticipating not finding another woman? Really, how did you do this to me, my best friend?
I trusted you, you woman, but what just happened? You betrayed not only my trust but also our friendship and my family!
Together with the male, the woman pulled the women's hair.
The day I saw them with Daren and his mistress seems to have brought back everything that transpired on that day.
As I thought back on all of that, I couldn't help but sigh. It just hurts so much that he did that to me. Because I love him so much, it never occurred to me to cheat on him or cause him harm. When we first became husband and wife, my opinion of him did not change.
"Why are you crying in the first place?"
I cocked my head. I raised my head and glanced at Sir Xander who was now in front of me.
"Huh?" I brushed my tears away right quick.
"Why are you sobbing, what the hell?"
I turned to face Sir Xander, who was now in front of me, and said, "Huh?
I brushed my tears away right quick.
"Of course, I'm not crying!
"I tried to cover my eyes, but I still couldn't stop the tears from streaming down my face.
I got up and cornered him after it remarked, "You're so oa," in a serious tone that made me bored.
"Oa? Sh*t! Do you understand that you shouldn't discuss it because you don't know? Will you not be hurt if your wife cheats on you? Naturally, you don't comprehend because you don't care about your surroundings—not even for your mother!" I chastised him for being so irritated.
"Why? Why do I feel like I get treated so differently than other individuals by you people? You folks talk like I'm not like you guys, right? I'm asexual, but it doesn't make me any less of a person. Watch your mouth, Elyse; I have feelings too!"
I warned him, "SIR XANDER, I hope you watch your mouth too. I hope you are slow with what you're saying because you might forget that those around you are also humans, they are wounded and have feelings too!" I left him by himself and went to my room.
I don't know if I'm annoyed or if I should understand him. I had never heard him speak more than ten words before. Anyway, tsk, I'm still upset and disgusted at him!
I just finished cleaning his home before taking a little nap.
"Wife!"
I questioned, "Hmm? Why," but I didn't look up from the newspaper I was reading.
"Can the three of us go out today? Do you have any free time?"
I said, seeing the sadness on his face, "I'm sorry spouse, maybe tomorrow since I have a meeting this afternoon and then I also have something essential to do tonight." But I was secretly laughing at his expression. He guessed I could have forgotten that it was now our anniversary.
It only scowled in silence by my side, and I could still hear him taking long breaths.
I got up and grabbed a cake. It glanced at me in shock and now seemed to be looking at me in disbelief, saying, "Happy monthsarry!"
All he believed I had forgotten. Tsk, I really, really can't forget; of course, this day is significant to both him and me.
He walked over to me and gave me several vigorous kisses, saying angrily, "I thought you forgot, you have a new style huh!"
"Wait, the cake might fall."
He placed the cake on the tiny table after taking it. When he dragged my hand into the room, I just chuckled.
"Daren, I still have a job."
"It's just real quick,"
"Daren, next time, I still have a job."
