Jaxon looked at the woman who was beside him, her eyes wide open and her mouth slightly apart, and he smiled, “Is it that delicious?”She blinked, “U-uh?”“The food is that delicious, you have sauce all over your mouth,”“Uh huh,”She tried to wipe off her mouth again looking sideways for a minute, but he stopped her, placing his hand on her cheek and wiping the sauce off for her, “You are so cute,”She choked on her food staring wide-eyed at him while he gave her one of his charming smiles, “U-uh?”What the hell is wrong with him?“Just eat gently, okay,”He patted her hair and went back to his food.“Aww…look at you both acting all lovey-dovey, you make me miss my wife,” His father beamed at them, but all the while Alva knew that Jaxon was only putting on an act.Jaxon smirked. He knew what he was doing, and he was glad that it was working.He wanted his father to believe he was giving her a chance to enter his heart, when all he wanted was to divorce her and marry the woman after h

A few weeks passed after that, and Alva tried not to think about what had happened in Jaxon's family house that day. She kept thinking about it though and couldn't help wondering why she had the flash.She hadn't had it since she visited her therapist last in Texas ten years ago, and then she had just been a young girl trying to figure out what had happened to her one night. Her family had been with her and each session had just produced this particular flash, making her conclude that she could never get that part of her memory again.So, why was it coming back now and in a more detailed form?Could it be that the memory was trying to come to the surface now that she was older, or could it have been triggered by the picture?She attempted to think but couldn't figure it out, she sighed.“Hey!”She was startled awake from her thoughts and looked at Jessie who was beside her decorating a cake, “What?”“Stop sighing for god's sake, I'm trying to put this particular decoration on the cake

Alva served the food she had prepared for Jaxon that evening, a luxurious meal of rice and chicken veggie stir-fry, and she sat down opposite him nervous. She had a cup of chocolate in her hand with lots of milk inside, and she placed it on the table, strangling her fingers around it.“You have something to tell me?”She looked up startled, “Uhm?”“You've been acting all edgy and nervous around me, I think you might be hiding something and with the way, you're wrapping your fingers around that cup, I think it might break soon,”She looked down at the said hands and removed them from the cup immediately. She hadn't known she was being so obvious about how nervous she was.Furthermore, she cleared her throat, “I do have a favor to ask you,”He stopped in the food he was eating, “You have a favor to ask me?”“Yes,”“What is it?” He continued eating.“I need you to uhm… lend me some money, I want to start up a career of mine and I need cash,”He scoffed, “You need cash, why not ask your f

She looked around the room again, surprised at how they had ended up in his house. She remembered entering the car with him but nothing else after that, “Why are we in your house?”“Because you begged me not to take you to his villa and I couldn't get her address out of her,” he pointed to Jessie.“Oh, I must have been drunk,” She grimaced.“You both should come to the kitchen, I made some hangover soup and breakfast,”“Oh my God, you're such a lifesaver!” Jessie exclaimed after him and went out the door.“Uhm…” Silas started beside her.“Uh?”“You might have to change your outfit, it reeks of vomit”,She sniffed her cloth and nearly gagged, “Oh my God, what happened?”He gave her this look that said really, and she blushed, “oh I must have done that to myself, well, is there anywhere I can take care of myself”,He pointed to the bathroom, “There, put your clothes in the laundry and take a shower, I'll give you a cloth to change into,”She nodded shyly and went into the bathroom, hitti

Jaxon sat in his office the next day going through some documents when Silas walked in through their connected door, “Hey Silas, how was your meeting with Sandsons communications, did it go well?”“Of course, I signed the document with them already, and we are to start giving them access tomorrow. We are to create some email packages for them and manage the websites too,”“Oh okay, pass me the copy of the document when they're ready”“Sure,”“Also get me a file of the other documents we need, and I'll go through them,”“Sure,”He kept silent and expected Silas to go to his office, but he didn't, “A-aren't you going to your office?”He sat down on the edge of Jaxon's table, “I will but care to tell me why Erin was at your house yesterday morning and, if I heard right, the other night too?”He shifted uncomfortably in his seat, “You don't need to look that serious,”“Jaxon!”“Fine, fine, she just came to pay me a visit and that was all, she also stayed over for the night,”“Oh God Jaxon

The water was cool against her body entering the pores of her skin and making her calm and she still couldn't believe that she was going out on a date with her husband. Yes, he was her husband, but she could have never expected him to ask her that considering all he had done since they were married.She was just so speechless.She turned off the water, leaning against the wall and sighing all her worries out. Likewise, she would just go to the dinner and pretend that everything was okay. Maybe it was just an act too, like the one they had put on for his family dinner, and it would all be over by the time they were back home.She picked up her towel, wrapping it around her body and stepped out into the room with a towel around her hair too. She had her hair wiped off first before moving onto her body which was just as wet and when she was done, she went to her wardrobe to find a dress to wear.She was so engrossed in looking for a dress, she d

Things went on smoothly between them for the next few weeks with Alva being shy and tense towards him, and he is cordial towards her, and she wondered why he was doing all that. Could it really have been Silas' influence on him or was he just trying to improve things between them, she wondered.She shook her head, that was not her concern now. She was in front of her family's house and was wondering what would be their reaction when they saw her. Would they still be the cold family that blamed her for the mistake she had done in the past, or would they be receiving of her now that she had done something for them?She mustered up her courage, sighing as she went into the compound, she would suck it up and find out herself. They hadn't contacted her since she left the house, and she wondered if they had just cut her off like that.The house didn't look like anyone was in it as she approached the front porch, and rang the bell. As expected their hou

Alva splashed a bowl of paint onto the canvas she was working on, the blue of it staining the edge of her cloth, and she smiled, “this is going to get messy”. She picked up the next paint which was a red one and splashed it onto the surface too.“Hey gently, it's not like you will clean it up when you're done…” she smiled at Jessie who walked in, the tray of chocolate drink in her hand looking tempting, “You're around,”“Mm, I heard you humming when I walked in and knew you were here,”“Oh,”“What are you working on?”She looked at the messy canvas she was yet to blend in and pointed, “A sunset landscape with flowers in the garden,”She smiled, “That's going to look beautiful,”“I know right,”“Chocolate?”She shook her head, “Not yet, let me get a head start on this, and I'll join you,”“Okay,”She picked up a brush that was on the chair and started blending the colors, the mixture of blue and red bringing out the color she wanted, a purple background with darker edges and a lighter
