Married To The Jinx 36 Are You Okay? Are You Hurt?
CHRISTOPHER Adele is standing in the doorway with a solemn look on her face. Wait, did she hear what I discussed with Mom or not? Her expression is not giving anything away! "I was wondering", she started talking and I gulped. "Do you want to go in the pool- with me?", Adele's voice came softly at the end of her sentence. I looked down at my hands in relief. I don't think she heard anything. I raised my head back to reply to her. "Uh- no?", I asked as I squinted my eyes at her. "Oh! Okay then", Adele replied before turning around and leaving. The door to my study room closed loudly and I jumped a bit. God, I feel so uneasy right now. I would give anything to go in the pool with Adele but I have to get myself together first. I need to think of how to react to her like before, such that it won't seem too sudden and it won't seem strange as well. I ran my hand through my hair as I tried to think straight and then- "Gbam!", I heard a thud sound come from outside and all of
Married To The Jinx 37 I Missed You
ADELE A few minutes have passed and nothing has changed. It isn't a dream. I am still in Chris's arms and he now has his right hand wrapped around my lower back. He is patting me slowly on the back and I like how drowsy it makes me feel. "Adele", he suddenly called out, his voice vibrating against my hand that is on his chest. I like the feel of it. "Yeah?", I inquired quietly in return. "I am sorry", his words came as a surprise to me and I stiffened instantly in his arms. His right hand is still patting my lower back gently. I gulped before asking in one breath, "For?" Chris shifted his body on the bed a bit before replying, "For how I acted that evening", he replied and I know the evening he was talking about quite well. "I shouldn't have talked to you like that. I should have asked you about what happened first before reprimanding you for anything", Chris said slowly to me and my gaze fell to the hand I have over his chest. Well, he got that right. He should have ask
Married To The Jinx 38 I Like It When You Brush My Hair
CHRISTOPHER I shut down my computer before looking up at the lady sitting a few meters away from me and a smile appeared on my face instantly. I bent my head a little bit to look at what she was drawing and I smiled when I saw it. A cute little cat. The way she manages to add every little detail to her drawings is very captivating. They always look so real when she is done with them. I am suddenly reminded of that drawing I had seen. I should talk about it. "Adele?" I called out to her and she hummed. Her head suddenly snapped back to look at me, all her focus directed at me. "Yeah?" She asked again when I had not spoken up. "I was thinking," I started with a gulp. I hope she agrees to this. "do you want to visit the park sometime with me?" I asked and her eyes widened at me almost instantly. "What? Why?" She asked with all but wide eyes and I gulped uncontrollably. "I just-" I started as I thought of what to say. I can't possibly tell her that I had gone through her d
Married To The Jinx 39 Baby? Honey? Cupcake?
ADELE I groaned as I checked the time for the umpteenth time this afternoon. Chris is yet to arrive back from the work that he is not supposed to be at in the first place. It has been an hour! A fucking whole hour and he still isn't back yet. My stomach rumbled and I groaned as I got up from the bed. I pushed my purse away in frustration before going downstairs. After finally getting down about twenty stairs, I kicked my heels off my feet before continuing with my walk. I am dressed in a black and white striped gown that is very free underneath. I got into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. The bucket of vanilla ice cream that Chris had brought home with the groceries two days ago is still lying there, in the fridge. I pulled it out before getting a ceramic bowl from the drawers. I served myself a portion that would be enough for me before returning the bucket to the refrigerator. I walked out of the kitchen with the bowl of ice cream in my hand as I muttered incohere
Married To The Jinx 40 Do You Want Some Candy?
ADELE Chris drove silently to the park while I hummed continuously from where I sat. "Are you that happy?" Chris's suddenly asked me and I turned my head to look at him. "You have no idea," I replied with a chuckle before turning to face the road. "What if I had not suggested it to you then?" He asked and I sighed. "You can always tell me when you want to do something," Chris's started and I turned my head to look at him, "I hope you know that." "I know," I started before moving my left hand towards his chin and pushing it slightly. "now, face the front and we won't have an accident." Chris chuckled at my words and I smiled widely at what just transpired between us. I am growing fonder of Chris as the days passed. I am starting to get scared of it. ~ We finally arrived at the park and we got down from the car. To think I would be visiting the park after all that happened last year is surprising. "Shall we?" Chris asked as he extended his right hand toward me. I did not
Married To The Jinx 41 Over My Dead Body
ADELE Chris appeared back in front of me within minutes with a plastic bag in his hand. I raised a brow at it first before looking up at him. He bent down in front of me and held my right leg over his left knee. "What are you doing?" I asked immediately with wide eyes. He removed both of my heels before reaching into the plastic bag. He pulled out two fluffy things and I furrowed my brows at them. "What are those?" I asked Chris as he slid my right foot into one of the fluffy things. "I don't know. I found them in the mart nearby," Chris replied before standing up on his feet. "Try walking in those, instead of those goddamn heels. They are much more comfortable to walk in," he said to me, worry all over his face. I looked down at the things on my feet and I smiled a bit. They are blue and they have bunny ears and eyes on them. I moved my feet in them before standing on my feet. They are quite comfortable too. I picked up my heels and placed them in the plastic bag be
Married To The Jinx 42 Visiting Chris's Company
ADELE Our lives went on as usual after the visit to the park and today is Monday. Chris has left for work while I am here in the sitting room, glaring at the television. God, I do not even understand a thing that is going on on it. I glanced up at the wall clock and my eyes brightened when I saw the time. It is not lunchtime yet. I have been thinking about it and I want to surprise Chris at his place of work someday. He has been doing everything for me since we got into this marriage together and now I feel like it's time to do something back in return. Well, that someday can always be today. I got up from the couch immediately and switched off the television before going to the kitchen. That's right, I am intending to make him lunch and head to his office to deliver it to him. I can still remember the way to his office building since that time when we went to his congratulatory event together. I looked around the kitchen and a frown appeared on my face. I had gotten so
Married To The Jinx 43 Damn You, Bianca! Damn You!
How are you enjoying the novel so far? Don't forget to vote with gems and leave a review, dear. The reviews would be very much appreciated (teary eyes), thank you. Chris's POV? Enjoy!! •CHRISTOPHERI was working on my computer when my phone suddenly vibrated on the table. I picked it up and found out that a new message had popped up on it. I opened the message and I frowned when I saw who it is from. Bianca. What does she want? She started in the message that she is coming to see me and I am wondering why. I picked up the wireless telephone anyways and called the lobby. I informed the receptionist to let her in immediately when she arrives before cutting off the call instantly. I sighed as I placed my jaw on my folded hands. My phone turned on and the picture I used as my wallpaper brought a small smile to my face. Adele hasn't seen it- yet. It is a picture of Adele that I took this morning when she was asleep. She had looked so adorable right there and then that I could not
