After our lunch, we went to the nearest pharmacy, bought a first aid kit and some medicine Matthew needed, and went back home. "Just lie down and sleep while I'm tending your blister so that you can rest." He followed without arguing, and I did the thing I needed."You didn't go out earlier?" "No, I plan to go after you arrive, but I change my mind. Maybe tomorrow.""Thank you, Babe.""Welcome. Rest, and I love taking care of you." I whispered, wrapping his hand with a gauze after I applied an antiseptic on it, hoping tomorrow it would heal a little. "Tomorrow, wear gloves, okay?" He nodded. He sat up and kissed my forehead."I really love the way you are taking care of me. I felt like my heart wanted to explode because of too much happiness." He whispered and kissed my forehead again. "No one tended me this much, only you.""You're happy that your hand is full of blister?" I glared at him, but he just smiled and pecked my lips. "Rest, I'm sure you're tired." After tending his hand
After Matthew left, I returned to bed and woke up around eight in the morning. I ate my breakfast, cleaned the house, and washed our clothes. I cooked our lunch after and waited for Matthew's return. It was past eleven when I heard his motorcycle approaching. I went out of the house and watched him coming. It My heart feels heavy seeing his appearance, but he is still able to smile despite looking so exhausted. He unmounted his bike, and I quickly took his bag inside the compartment and led him inside. I helped him remove his jacket, let him sit on the couch, and pulled his shoes off. "I'm okay. " He whispered when he saw my eyes brimmed with tears. I sat beside him, wrapped my arms around his body, and sobbed in his chest. I know he wasn't okay, but for my sake, he pretended to be okay. "Babe! " I pulled away from the hug and wiped my tears. "You bathe. I'll set the table." He kissed my forehead and wiped the tears that rolled my face again. "Stop crying. I will be fine in a fe
LYZAThe women looked at me as soon as I occupied one of the seats in the shaded area. They all look like they are in their late thirties and forties while I am a teenager. I smiled timidly at them and refocused on the men howling those heavy tubs.I wondered how Matthew endured this. He used to live that someone handed him everything he needed, but now, he's working hard to earn money for both of us. Tears brimmed my eyes, but I blinked them away. I didn't want Matthew to worry. He was exhausted to add his worriesAt exactly eight in the morning, a bell sounded, and the men stopped what they were doing. One by one, they approached us. I searched where Matthew was among them, and I sadly smiled when I saw him approaching me with a smile on his lips despite how messy and exhausted he was. I held his hand and pulled him to sit beside me. I removed his jacket and the clothes that he used to cover his head and wiped his face with a towel I brought, then offered him a bottle of water whil
ABBYWe left the restaurant full of happiness. My heart is rejoicing. Matthew won't be suffering by carrying those heavy tubs of fish every day, and it lifted the heavy burden in my heart. My arms wrapped tightly around his waist, with my face leaning on his back as we drove home. I feel so relieved. We are lucky to meet Matthew's boss today. They are so Kind, and I am happy they peptide us and give Matthew a lighter job. Now, I could sleep peacefully knowing Matthew got a better job. Matthew picked me up from his bike when he arrived home and carried me inside our home. We both laughed when we reached inside. He put me down in the living room and wrapped his arms around me. "We are blessed to meet Sir Patrick and Ma'am Celeste. You are my lucky star. You came, Sir Patrick offered me a better, and you also found a job in one day—my lucky star. "I'm not. It was just a coincidence. Even if I don't come, I'm sure Sir Patrick and Ma'am Celestel will still offer you a job in their offi
ABBYAfter the delivery men left, Matthew and I went to the market. "Babe, I think you need to buy new clothes. You should wear formal clothes when going to the office. Let's buy three pairs of long sleeves, pants, and black shoes.""Okay. I'm also thinking that. "Let's buy your clothes before we buy the ingredients I need later. ""Okay. But you choose for me." He grinned. "Okay, I will. Let's go." We went to the clothing store and looked for his long sleeves and pants. I picked white, sky blue, a checkered color. His pants are two black and one brown."Do you like what I choose? ""I like whatever you choose for me. Can we buy a bag, too? "Okay, you choose your bag and the shoes. " "After we bought Matthew's things, we headed to the market to buy the ingredients I needed for our dinner later. We can't use the fridge tonight. The delivery men said to let it rest before turning it on. So we can use it by tomorrow. "We are lucky to meet Sir Patrick and Ma'am Celeste. " I said as
A year passed, and Matthew is now the head of Research and development of the Patrick business. He found out that Matthew was brilliant and had many ideas on how to improve their product. Matthew even plans to export their product abroad. He wanted their product to be known not only locally but overseas, too. Patrick and Celeste adore him and Abby, who are the constant visitors of Patrick and Celeste's home. Matthew and Abby live a happy life for almost two years. One day, while Abby and Matthew were having lunch at Patrick and Celeste's residence, Abby fainted, causing everyone to panic.She was brought to the Hospital with Matthew, dying of worries. It was the first time Abby got sick, and it scared him. "Matthew, can you sit down? You're making me dizzy." Celeste scolded Matthew, pacing back and forth before her and his husband."I'm scared, I'm worried. Abby, she's okay, right? I saw her throw up a few days ago, but she never told me that she was sick. She said she ate somethin
Abby glanced at Patrick beside her with eyes brimming with tears, and he smiled at her. "Stop crying. You'll ruin your makeup, and it's bad for my grandchild." A sob escaped from her lips, and she wrapped her arms around him. "Keep moving. Matthew might think you don't want to marry him." He whispered. Abby pulled away from the hug and composed herself. They continue moving until they reach in front of Matthew. Abby quickly threw herself at him and cried.,"Hey, Sorry for not giving you a proper proposal and going straight to the wedding. I..."You sneaky ass." Abby hissed, then smack him. Everyone gasped for a few seconds, then oh and laughed when she crashed her lips at him, then pulled away and dragged the still-stunned Matthew in front of the priest."Father, you can start the wedding now." She said, wiping her tears again. Matthew chuckled beside her, as well as the people around them, including the priest. The wedding ended with full of laughter, with a big feast after. Patrick
"Wake up, my lovely wife," Matthew whispered, kissing Abby's forehead. He was already dressed up and ready to leave. "Abby, babe, wake up. I'm leaving." He pecked her pouting lips and tenderly caressed her face. Abby opened her eyes, and he smiled and pecked her lips. "Good morning." He helped her to sit, and he sat beside her. "Morning! Babe." She smiled and wrapped her arm around his neck, leaning her head on his shoulder. He kissed the crown of her head and flattened her messy hair. "I'm leaving." He whispered. She pulled away from the hug, and he brushed the loose hair away from her face. "You want me to buy you something? Food, clothes, or things we need for baby Ara?""We already have everything. Just come back home as soon as possible.""Okay, eat your breakfast later. Don't skip meals.""Okay, Daddy." She teased. He smiled and gathered her in his arms again. "Be careful when you walk around, and don't tire yourself so much." Abby smiled and nodded her head. "Wait for me la
