Adobo
Chapter 66
Ashley sat on the mat that she had placed on the lawn.
She had began her yoga classes.
She had been eating a lot for the past few days and it wasn't good at all.
She was beginning to add a little amount of body.
She loved her slender little body that she could bend anytime..she wanted without problems and she would get it back.
Although it wasn't difficult to get it back since it was just a little amount of body that had added to her slender skin.
"Hey Ashley." She looked up and it was Sandra.
"Hi."
She had almost forgotten that she had asked Sandra to come meet her earlier.
"What are you doing?" Sandra asked as she walked closer to her.
"Eating."
"Yeah, forget I asked that." Sandra said and Ashley rolled her eyes.
She stood up from the mat and sighed.
"This is so tiring."
"Yeah, because you've added. But it's just a little bit. You can work it out, if you're serious about it.. it'll be gone before seven days. That's a week." Sandra said and Ashley nodded smiling.
"You're always the best." Ashley blew a kiss and Sandra dodged the kiss by bending down.
"Save that for Mikhail till when he's back. He's really going to need it."
"Did you know that Susan Cheng is back to Seattle?" Sandra asked as if something has flashed into her head.
"What?!" Ashley's eyes widened.
"That's a lie. She said she'd never come back again. Bitch got guts!" Ashley mumbled to see Sandra frown.
"She's my friend Ashley."
"I don't care. She's not mine."
"Well...you caused it. Susan isn't bad like toj think."
"Oh wow." Ashley rolled her eyes as she packed her mat and her small pillow.
"Anyways...why did you call me here?" Sandra asked as they both walked into the living room and took a seat.
"What do you want? Any drink? I cooked your favorite adobo with a smiley face." Ashley said and Sandra's eyes widened.
"Bring it over. Bring all of it cause if you decide to keep it for Mikhail till he's back it'll be bad. You know you can't warm it but if you decide to it'll..."
"I'll not bring all of it. Rob and others will want to eat when they get back..okay?!" Ashley scoffed.
"Rubbish..." Sandra huffed as well.
It has been long she has eaten that her favorite dish and it was always Ashley who prepared it.
Ha! She missed that time they would all stay together.
"The doctor said we can come tomorrow to check up on Mom. I went there yesterday and she was doing good. Our mother does not have any problems again and she's perfectly fine." Sandra said to have Ashley smile.
She had decided to go visit their mother after the beach but then the incident that had happened had made Mikhail keep her inside the house and now she was not to leave for anywhere without him knowing about it.
"I'll come see Mom tomorrow as well."
"Mom will be so happy. Thank God she made it. Ha! We'll finally be one again." Sandra said.
Ashley brought in the food and placed it in front of her sister who had began to take off her pink belt.
" When is your husband coming back?" Sandra asked.
Ashley's eyes dilated as she bit her lips.
Well...she knew Mikhail was her husband but hearing her sister say it was another thing..which got her smiling like a fool.
"Seriously? Forget i even asked. Idiot." Sandra cussed as she began to munch down her food.
"Take it easy and Mikhail will be here anytime soon. He just went to the company to get some things done and he did say he'd visit the club too. Why did you ask?"
"Wait.. He's coming soon?" Sandra asked to see Ashley nod.
"And you gave me food to eat when he's coming?"
"Why? Is he going to take the food from you?"
"But what if I forget about him in the room and began to eat like my normal self...!'
"Well... there's nothing bad about it. Eat like your normal self...wait a minute,are you thinking of impressing my husband?"
Sandra hissed, eating her food quickly as she could and when she had just dropped the spoon..they door opened and Mikhail walked in.
"Good afternoon Baby." He greeted, walking to where Ashley was seated and giving her a kiss on the lips.
"Good day babe. How was your day?" She asked and he nodded.
"Have you eaten?" She asked and he shook his head negatively.
"I'll go warm it up for you. Go bath and take off your clothes and then Lunch." Ashley said and he nodded before turning to the other woman who was staring at them with dropped jaws.
"There's no fly in my house Miss Sandra Crook but don't you think it's best if you close your mouth and limit the amount of food you eat.... you're going fat as day goes......." He trailed off.
"Babe..." Ashley called, giving him an eye and he smiled before standing up and leaving the room.
"He's a jerk and he didn't mean any of that." Ashley said and Sandra nodded.
"I don't care about what he said, he has always been a jerk but then... what did you two just do? The greetings... kisses and ahhh!" She covered her mouth with widened eyes.
"Are you two together now?"
"We've always been together Sandra."
"You know what I mean you dimwit. Are you two finally...you know." Sandra said, touching her little finger's together and smiling.
"We've been." Ashley said, mimicking the finger touching as her sister had done to show what she was talking about. "For quite a time now." She munmbled and Sandra's eyes widened.
"And you didn't tell me."
"It was happening so fast and I didn't even have the time to."
"What did he say? Tell me all of it." Sandra said and Ashley nodded, thinking of the one to say before settling on.
"I'm not leaving your for anyone in this world. You're mine and you'll remain mine no matter what happens! You'll carry my child..no children and we'll live in a cool place with nothing to worry about, okay?" Ashley mimicked Mikhail's voice as she covered her red cheeks.
"Oh my god! Honestly I wasn't rooting for Mikhail Mazza after everything he has made us go through.. especially you but then I began to change my mind seeing how he cares about you and knowing him for who he is and was....we all know it's rare for him to care for someone like he cares for you. When I saw him that day in the hospital when you were shot..he was so looking so devastated like someone who was about to go crazy and that was when I knew your love was not one sided." Sandra said, smiling.
Ashley chuckled, as she rushed to her sister and gave her a hug.
"I also didn't tell you something." She mumbled.
"What is it? Spill all the bean now." Sandra said.
"I...I was carrying a baby zygote in my womb before getting shot.."
"Jesus!' Sandra half yelled, and Ashley shook her head.
"Don't yell." She sighed before continuing the conversation. "So to save me from dying, Mikhail ordered the kill the child. Cause the doctor said it was either me or the child." She completed and Sandra shook her head out of pity.
"Are you okay? You've been keeping a lot from me recently and I don't like it."
"I'm so sorry, I'll stop. I'll start telling you every minor thing." Ashley said and she stood up slowly and cleaned her eyes.
"And why are you so emotional?" Sandra frowned, as she hugged her sister back.
"This is why I hate when family members pay people visits. They make people cry, now tell me exactly what you did or said to make my wife cry?!" It was Mikhail, standing on the staircase and glaring at her!
