Jeanne then looked at her watch.
“Oh my... It's past five already!” Said Jeanne.
Aaron also took a look at his watch and said to Jeanne.
“You want to go back now?” Asked Aaron.
“Yeah, I have something.”
“Alright.”
Then, Jeanne woke up from the chair, leaving Aaron. She took the cups during their discussion and took them to the pantry. She then washed the cup and wiped it to put on the cabinet.
After that, she went back to her table and started cleaning her table. There was a mug on her table.
“My oh my…” Si
A few days later, they were still busy with the project as usual. There was impressive progress from day to day and they were still on track according to Sara's plan.Thanks to Sara, it was all going well.It was almost lunch that Aaron suddenly appeared at the doorstep of the room.“So, how is it going, team?” Asked Aaron promptly.Jeanne, Dita, Rex and Cara who were full hand with their work startled at Aaron's sudden appearance but not Sara.Sara quickly stood up and went towards Aaron to have a closer conversation.“Umm… Well, we are still on track. Dita and Cara are almost ready with the phase 1 marketing strategy while Jeanne and Re
Days passed and Jeanne kept on repeating her routine. Morning to the evening at the office whilst evening till night on the road.Without Jeanne realizing it, her nonstop routine started to kill her body inside. She felt extra tired and fatigued. However, she decided to keep going, for her life as well as Ma. Now that her saving was almost enough for Ma, that fact made her relieved the most. She casted away all the pain and tiredness.“Ma, morning,” Jeanne had her breakfast with Ma and Annie.“Morning, honey,” said Ma and gave Jeanne a kiss on the cheek.Jeanne took the strawberry jam and put it on her pancake. That day, she woke up a little bit early so she had the time for some chit-chat.&ldqu
Aaron was shocked when Jeanne suddenly came in. Meanwhile, Sara was feeling accomplished as she expected that Jeanne would appear at that door.Aaron stood up and tried to explain to Jeanne.“Oh God, Jeanne! This is not like what it seems at all. Let me explain!” Said Aaron nervously while trying to approach Jeanne.“Stop! You stop there!” Cried Jeanne. Tears did not stop from rolling out, it went non-stop like a waterfall, making her views blurry.Sara, who saw Jeanne in that situation quickly took the chance to undo her shirt and messed up her hair behind Aaron's back, to make it look like they were doing something for real.“Jeanne...” Aaron approached Jeanne closely.
Knock, knock.The second knock made Ma get up from the sofa and went to the front door.“Oh, Aaron,” said Ma, quite startled with Aaron's presence at her doorstep during the hour.“Umm… Evening, Mrs. Heard.”From Ma's view, Aaron was not looking quite good as he looked drunk. She looked at Harry, who was behind Aaron with a raised brow. Harry just shrunk his shoulders, not knowing their intention of coming here.“Umm... Can I meet Jeanne?” Asked Aaron politely, trying to stand still even though his head and body were still aching from drinking too much.“Well, I'm not sure about that.”
“Fuck, what am I thinking?” Said Aaron, now that he became sober with Jeanne's slap.He looked at her face in front of him. Jeanne's face was reddened as anger fuelled her and her tears were almost falling and she held it as she did not want to pour a single tear on someone who had destroyed her without her knowledge.Aaron realized that he had said what he should not say. Aaron corrected his trousers and tried to walk to Jeanne again.“Get out of my house!” Shouted Jeanne loudly and clearly this time, not trying to uncover it anymore. The shout was clear and it quickly attracted Ma and Annie. They quickly ran upstairs as they were afraid that something unexpected might happen.As they arrived, Aaron was already outside of the room, lo
Jeanne continued her daily life as a normal Jeanne. She pushed aside last night's drama which made her head spin.She arrived at the office as usual, before 9:00 am. She was praying hard that this day would be no more an emotional game. She had enough of it and she thought that she would need some break from it.Jeanne started her work in the room with her team. After a while, Sara came in.“Good morning, guys!” She was in a bright mood.Everybody looked at her judgingly as her reaction was over the top and Dita said,“Wow! So energetic. So unlike you.”“Well, we need to be positive and cheerful every morning so that the aura of beau
Andy looked at the flyer and chuckled awkwardly.“Yeah…”“Well, congratulations.”“Thanks.” Andy looked down to the floor. Deep in his heart, he felt mingled feelings as to how ironic it was that he was now a father to her ex-girlfriend's friend's baby.Jeanne realized Andy's facial reaction changed and decided to be truthful.“Actually, I already know about it.”Andy became shocked. Did Sara tell Jeanne already?“Sara told you?”“Yes. Hmm… Whatever it is, congratulations to you both. I'm purely happy for
“What do you mean?” Asked Andy again as the doctor stayed shut. The doctor then invited Andy inside the curtain and closed it, to prevent Andy and Sara from people's eyes as he did not know what to expect after the truth was unveiled.Sara was still on the bed, gazing on the other side. She did not know how to face Andy.“She's not pregnant.” The doctor told the truth.Andy's eyes widened and his jaw dropped. He could not wrap his head around the fact that he just learned.“She's… She's not pregnant?!” Andy was shocked and his eyes were shaking. A mix of angry and miserable feelings all combined in both his heart and head, still in disbelief after hearing the doctor's statement.
