ALEJANDROFuck! Fuck!Fuck!Why in the world did I say something so ridiculous? What was I thinking? I didn't need anyone to tell me that Alice was hurt by the things that I said to her and that was what prompted her to slap me in the first place. I didn't mean to say such mean things to her but it just happened to come out of my mouth and now I feel really bad for the things that I said because it wasn't even the truth. I don't think Alice has ever cheated on me and I doubt that she would ever do such a thing but because I needed a reason to end the topic so that I don't have to keep defending myself, I said what I said and now my words have only seemed to make things much worse. "How dare you say such a thing to me, Alejandro? How fucking dare you!" she hissed furiously and lone tears streamed down her face. "You dare to claim that I'm cheating on you and that the child in my womb belongs to someone else when you know more than anybody else how loyal I am to you?" she asked and

ALEJANDRO "I don't know if you've noticed this, but we are no longer as close as we used to be. Things between you and I used to be so much different than this but now, everything seems so odd and I'm wondering if you've thought of the reason why things are like this between us," I said. I walked toward the bed and sat in a space that wasn't too far from where she was seated on the floor. "I'm scared, Alice. I'm afraid that things between us are going to become so bad especially now that you seem to want to distance yourself from me and I try not to talk about things like this with you because I don't want a situation where you would end up asking for a divorce," I told and she frowned. "What? Why in the world are you even talking about divorce right now?" she asked, sounding very surprised and I like a reaction because it was exactly what I wanted. "It's because of the way you're making me feel right now. Lately, you tend to stay away from me and I know it's because you're suspi
Love, lies and, secrets 78. Tension
ANNAI can already sense the crazy tension between Alice and Alejandro and being between them right now was making the air a lot more toxic and uncomfortable. They both still haven't said a word to each other since I joined them and knowing how weird that is, I couldn't help but suspect that something was off with them. I also noticed that they were kind of avoiding each other and even though I wanted to ask Alice what was going on, I didn't know if I would be doing the right thing by asking her because I don't want to seem like I'm prying into their business. I could easily find out what was happening from Alejandro because I'm sure he'd tell me but regardless, I still had every intention of asking Alice instead because I feel like I needed to hear her side of the story. I decided not to say anything during dinner because I didn't want to make things even more awkward and another reason I didn't say anything was that Alejandro didn't seem like he was in the mood to make any small

ANNA The first thing that I noticed as soon as I opened my eyes was that I was lying on a bed that felt comfortable and uncomfortable at the same time and the entire room was painted white.'What was I doing here?' I asked myself before recalling what had happened to me earlier.I passed out."Oh, thank goodness that you're finally awake, Anna," Alice said as she pulled me in for a hug."How are you feeling? Are you dizzy? Does it hurt anywhere?" she asked and I shook my head. "Can you see me? Are you certain you're fine?" she asked again, taking a look at me from head to toe. "I feel just fine, Alice. You don't have to worry," I replied to her, so she would calm herself and stop being so extra. Thankfully, the doctor walked in right at that moment. "Oh, I see you're awake!" he remarked and I offered a tight-lipped smile. "I do have something to say to the patient but I'm not sure if you'd want me to say this in front of an outsider or if you'd rather listen to it on your own. Wh
Love, lies and, secrets 80. Never ending suspicion
ALICEIt's been three days now since I last spoke to Alejandro and he also hasn't made any attempts to speak to me. He had even gone as far as moving out of your room but I didn't bother going after him or trying to convince him to come back. I just didn't feel the need to do that because to me, his sudden reactions made him even more suspicious and I was having a bad feeling about all of this. It's not like I'm solely going to blame him because I'm aware that I have my faults as well but, he has been acting very differently for a very long time now and his behaviour was starting to bother me. I know that I shouldn't have attacked my day without any concrete evidence and I'm also kind of nervous about all of this because I didn't even know where to start and I also don't know how all of this is going to end. I wondered to myself at some point and asked myself if all of this was worth it because I could turn out to be wrong and Alejandro might not actually be cheating on me but thin

ALICE “Then what happened? Why is this happening to us?” I asked again.“I don't know how I should answer that question because I'm also confused as to why all of this is happening to us. It's not like I want to play the blame game or anything but, you're the one making things difficult for us by suspecting me and thinking that I would even ever think of betraying you. It's just starting to feel like you're looking for a reason to just end our relationship,” he replied in a defensive tone and I was pissed. I hated the fact that he was always defensive because I can't understand why he needs to be. I just asked a simple question and I expected him to give me a simple reply and just try to sort things out between us but instead, he's placing the blame on me and also trying to defend himself like I accused him of anything. I managed to smile not because I wasn't upset but because I intended to catch him in the act because he just proved to me that it was cheating on me and there was
Love, lies and, secrets 82. Misunderstanding
ALEJANDRO Anna suddenly called me and asked me to meet her in some weird place that I had never even heard of. She already gave me the room number and she informed me that she'd be there waiting for me and that I should hurry up. When I arrived, I could understand why she wanted us to meet in a place like this. We've been doing everything that we can't be much more careful especially now that we knew that someone was watching us and keeping tabs on our every move. Anna was smart enough to come to this kind of place because the person that was keeping tabs on us would probably never imagined that we would come to a place like this together so that was all the more reason why I wasn't upset. “You wait here and I'll be back shortly,” I said to my driver before getting out of the car and making my way into the building.It didn't take too long for me to arrive at the room number that she had given me and as soon as I knocked, the door came open and I closed it immediately after I wal

ALEJANDRO I walked closer to her. "Listen babe..," I called out, taking a deep breath and letting it out. "Babe, I beg you to please listen to me and try to understand me," I pleaded.She folded her arms across her chest and looked away. "I need you to understand that this isn't about you being the other woman or anything like that but it's about the fact that Alice and I are married and she also happens to be pregnant with my child. How am I supposed to tell her or tell the world that I was having a child with my wife's sister at the same time my wife is having a child as well?" I asked. "I need you to take your time and think about how this is going to affect both our lives. What are you going to say to your parents and Alice when they find out that you're pregnant with my child? You know that I care about you a lot but you also have to think of how this baby is going to bring a lot of problems for us," I said to her hoping she'd finally come to her senses. She needed to unders
