Married To The Jinx 63 I Met Daniel
ADELELiam stopped the car in front of my parent's house's gate before getting down to go in and unlock the gate but I can't wait any longer. I got down from the car after him and went inside the compound with him. He struggled to open the gate while I just went into the house straight away. I knocked on the front door and it pulled open almost instantly. Mother's face appeared in front of me and a surprised look replaced the curious one on her face instantly. "Adele? Is that you?" She asked almost immediately and I smiled. "Yes Mom," I replied and she smiled heartily before opening the door more widely."What about Christopher? Where is he?" Mother asked immediately and I smiled a bit before looking toward the back. Liam has finally been able to open the gate and he is returning to the car, so he can just drive in. "He is here as well," I told her and she nodded. I looked at her eyes and I saw how she is expectantly looking toward where Chris would come through with the car.
Married To The Jinx 64 The Whole Truth
ADELE"We did it because of you," I heard Father say and I turned to look at him, breaking my stare competition with Mother. "Sorry?" "We did it because of you", Father said again and I raised my brow in confusion. "Wait, you are saying you made me suffer for almost one year because of 'me'?""Not just for you, but for your good," Father replied again and I just frowned before turning to look at Mother. "Mom?" I called out to her and she looked up at me."We er-," She finally started talking after so long and I don't know why I feel scared about what she was about to say. "When Daniel died," She tried another approach and I must say that I am quite satisfied with where she chose to start from. Mother shifted to the edge of the seat before clasping her hands together again. "When Daniel went into surgery last two years or so, he came back out after a long time in the theatre room.""And if I remember correctly, it was the time you had come home to take a rest after a long time s
Married To The Jinx 65 What's For Dinner?
ADELEMother and I finished making lunch and we served everyone's portion. I carried the plate in twos out of the kitchen before calling Chris and Father from the sitting room. We were all seated at the dining table with me beside Chris and Mom and Dad, just opposite us. I served Chris some syrup on his pancakes before looking up at his face. Wait, why does he look so bothered?Did Father say something wrong to him?I took my right and placed it on his lap. His head slowly turned toward me and I wasted no time in mouthing to him. "Are you okay?" I asked faintly and his reply shook me a bit. "I am fine," he replied in his normal very clear and loud voice, causing Mother and Father to look up at us. At least, it's just my parents. I smiled at them and we all continued eating anyways. I kept taking side glances at Chris and the solemn look on his face is still there. Even though it looked almost unnoticeable, I can still see that he is not feeling too good. Father must have said s
Married To The Jinx 66 I Love You
ADELE"It's why you never said it back when I said it. That is why you've never told me," he began saying calmly again before looking back into my eyes. "that you love me."His last few words came in such whispers that I felt my heart stop for a bit. What?! "But really, do I mean nothing to you? Is that how little my trust in you is?" He questioned as he took slow steps forward, causing me to move back a bit."Could you not confide in me?""You could have told me first, Adele!" He yelled and I felt my eyes sting immediately."But you chose to distance yourself from me instead," he commented silently and I closed my eyes as I tried to savor what was happening. I opened my eyes to meet Chris's gaze on me. He still has that hurt and disappointed look on his face and he has no idea how badly his look is tearing me apart.He let my hand go all of a sudden before taking a few steps back. He turned around to walk away and it took everything in me to be able to voice out something. "I am
Married To The Jinx 67 You Need Some Scolding
ADELEIt's been two days since I have 'that' fight with Daniel. Everything has been going smoothly since then but I don't know, I still feel like I hurt his pride too much. Chris is cooking dinner while I watch him. I have asked him to prepare me Lo Mein Noodles again. It's my favorite meal of his. He turned to look at me with a smile as he grabbed an ingredient and I smiled back. And that was when it occurred to me. I know a way in which I can pay Chris back for what I did to him. I mean, at least get this feeling off my chest. I am going to make a drawing of him or a painting. A drawing that would be so spectacular, he would want to hold it close to his heart. It won't be like the drawing of a half-naked Chris that I have drawn before- God, I hope he does not see that- it would be so embarassing.A plate of noodles was dropped in front of me and I looked up at Chris. "You seemed like you were not here at all. What were you thinking about?" He asked as he took his seat beside me
Married To The Jinx 68 You Are Perfection Itself
ADELE It's Saturday and Chris is driving me to his mother's house himself. I did not notify her beforehand of my visit, because I want to surprise her. "I hope she is at home," I commented with slanted lips as I stared at the road ahead of us. "She is always at home on Saturdays, trust me" Chris replied and I turned to look at him. "You keep saying that. What if she isn't?" I asked with a frown on my face. "Well, then it's out of my hands," Chris started with a nonchalant look on his face. "I wasn't the one who wanted to give her a surprise visit," he added before raising both hands from the steering wheel. "Chris!" I shouted immediately and his hands went back on the steering wheel instantly. "What?!" He questioned, matching the tone I had used for him. "You are going to get us killed," I answered through gritted teeth as I bore holes beside his head with my eyes. "No, I am not," he replied immediately and I just stared at him. I finally took my eyes off him as a deep sigh
Married To The Jinx 69 Scenes In Front Of His Mother
ADELEI moved my body forward to walk to where Mrs. Marvin stood in front of her house's front door but Chris won't let me leave. His hand that is around my waist held on tightly to me all of a sudden, hindering my movement. I looked up at him and he took his eyes off his mother before looking down at me. "Let's go together," Chris said softly with a small handsome smile on his face and I stared at him, almost losing myself in those eyes. 'Almost'I pulled myself out of his hand abruptly and his eyes widened at me. "Stop acting like a child," I hissed playfully as I looked at him from top to bottom. I looked back at the woman who is still patiently waiting for us in front of that door, with a genuine smile on her face. "Adele," I heard Chris whine from behind me and I almost laughed out loud. I kept on walking and soon, I was in front of Mrs. Marvin. "Good afternoon, ma'am," I greeted with a smile on my face and she smiled back instantly. Suddenly, her face went into a frown
Married To The Jinx 70 A Long Chatty Interaction With Chris's Mother
ADELE"Take a seat," Chris's mother said as she took her seat on one of the couches in the sitting room.I walked forward with a small polite smile on my face before sitting down on the couch beside the couch she was sitting on. I am just to her left-hand side. My eyes fell on the plate containing different sliced-into-bits fruits on the table and I raised a brow at it. "Am I perhaps, interrupting your lunch?" I tried to sound as polite as I could. I hope it came out well. "Oh no, not at all," Chris's mother replied with a smile on her face and I smiled back. "You would not believe it," she started, calling my attention to her. "I was carrying this out of the kitchen when I saw you and Chris having fun outside," she said, completing her sentence with a wink and my mouth went slightly agape. I looked down at my lap as I tried to think of the right response to give. She is talking about when Chris pulled me back to kiss me. "I- I-""I am glad you guys are having fun," she eased m
