After my lunch with Vincent, it feels so strange calling by his name, I'm so used to calling him grey eyed monster. Everything's indeed happening too fast. I can't believe that I'm getting married in a few days as Vincent said the sooner the better, and of course I couldn't say no.
While we were in the car driving back to the diner, Vincent said that from today, he would come every morning to my apartment to drive me to the diner and after my shift he would drive me back.
I tried so hard to persuade him that it was not needed but he won't just agree, he's hella stubborn. But on the brighter side it also means that I would be seeing him more often.
Sis, you'll be getting married to him, you'll see him more than often. Says inner Venessa, that girl keeps rubbing it to my face that I'm getting married, and as much I want to forget it for some time, I just can't.
********
It's been exactly two hours since Vincent dropped me here at the diner and since then I couldn't stop thinking about our conversation. Here I am, wiping tables wishing I could rewind the time and change the things I said earlier while talking to him.
I don't know if it makes sense but there's one thing for sure, I'm officially going crazy and the glares I'm receiving from my girl co workers are not helping at all and thank goodness, Andrew didn't come today at work so he didn't get to see me climbing out of Vincent's car or else poor guy would have an heart attack.
I somehow managed today but what about tomorrow?, there would be no way Andrew would not see me, that guy can recognize me even though I'm miles away.
After my shift, I headed towards the door to finally go home, completely forgetting that Vincent would drop me, the moment I stepped a foot outside, the sight in front of me almost made me drool.
There stood, the Greek god leaning at his car, going through his phone. My heart starts jumping with excitement inside my chest. What's wrong with it?, it always goes all crazy whenever I'm near him.
Finally sensing my presence, he looked up and smiled at me, pocketing his phone. I proceeded towards him, and noticed that his hair looks messy as if he ran his hand through it multiple times, making him look more drool worthy and his tie hanging loosely around his neck.
He looks tired, but I don't get it. How can someone look tired and handsome at the same time?.
"Hey" I say greeting him, I can feel my cheeks heating up as he looks at me so intensely. "Hey there, la mia rosa '' he greeted back, smiling opening the door for me
. As soon as we got seated, we got surrounded by silence, not an awkward silence but a comfortable one with slow music playing on his radio.
Reaching my apartment, he opened the door for me, I quickly replied with a small thank you and as soon as I was about to leave, he grabbed my arm turning me towards him. I look at him questioning, as I expect him to say something but instead he lift his hand to cup my face and kiss me on my cheek. My eyes widened as I didn't expect him to do so. His strong cologne lingering in my nose, smelling so good, " good night, love" he says looking at my now red cheeks, slightly smirking. "G..goodnight" I replied stammering like a complete idiot. How does he have an effect like this on me, I ask myself as I ran away from him not wanting to embarrass myself further.
******
After freshening up, I laid at my bed thinking of today's event, how quickly everything changed for me, if someone said two days ago that I'll be marrying Vincent De Costello then I'll probably die laughing my ass off and say to them that they should get admitted at mental hospital.
I can't help the sigh escaping from my lips as I keep asking myself whether I made the right decision or not. How am I supposed to break this news to Andrew?, he advised me at the first place not to be associated with anything related to Vincent and me?, I decided to marry him, Andrew's gonna flip out and Mario, ohhh shit... where did I land myself into?
What if I just run away? Don't be silly, did you forget honey boo, that it's Vincent that we're talking about. He's gonna hunt you down and punish you. Says inner Venessa, finally talking sensible. A groan escapes from my throat as there's one thing for sure, I'm not getting any sleep tonight.

Did you guys think Venessa did the right thing??? Let me know...
Until then....

My drawing on the talisman looked like it had been drawn by a blind chicken and was rightly rather skeptical about my sh*tty talisman being able to save me in times of crisis. I wanted to ask Liu Longting to stay with me until the task was finished, but before I even had the chance to speak, Liu Longting gave my cheek a hard pinch. “If you harm our child after I leave, I’ll make sure that none of your family members live to see another day.” Was he threatening me? When Liu Longting was pleasing me earlier in the day, I thought he actually felt something for me, but I was wrong. It was all for the sake of the baby snake that I was carrying in my belly! D*mn it! I pushed Liu Longting’s hand away from my face and said, “I hate you. You better pray that I don’t get eaten by that thing. If I die, your baby will surely die with me!” After hearing what I said, Liu Longting paused for a moment before letting out a soft chuckle. He responded, “Of course I don’t want you to die. Don’t

After dinner, Laker escaped his townhouse with Ostana in his arms, claiming that he had ‘pressing issues’ to deal with - though I am pretty sure the only ‘pressing issue’ was in his pants; leaving Emrys and I alone with each other. He sat on one side of the couch, me on the opposite and in front of us, some Netflix show played mindlessly on the television, my fingers busy texting my mom.

- Por favor, me solta... Por favor - implorava enquanto estava sendo arrastado pelo chão de uma casa que eu desconhecia, um pano cobria meus olhos me impedindo de ver quem me arrastava, mas pela força deduzi ser um homem.Ainda estava me debatendo e tentando me soltar de suas mãos grandes quando ele por fim me levantou e me colocou em uma cadeira.- Me solta! - Gritei jogando a força do meu corpo pro chão na esperança de me livrar de sua pegada, uma tentativa falha.- Cala a boca - Sua voz entrou em meus ouvidos causando uma série de arrepios duradouros e de grande intensidade, a voz era masculina como eu suspeitava a pouco. Por essa razão tentei me libertar mais ainda, o que resultou em um tapa certeiro no rosto, desequilibrando a venda, me permitindo enxergar de uma maneira limitada.- Se não ficar quieto vou arrancar a sua língua! - Gritei mais desesperadamente do que antes e desta vez derrubando tudo ao me

Bang!Yvonne’s forehead collided against the windshield and she gasped in pain.Henry didn’t expect that at all. He promptly slammed on the brakes and the car screeched to a halt before he unfastened his seatbelt and then reached out to check on her.A frown instantly appeared on his face when he saw a large red patch on her forehead. “Why are you such an idiot?”Yvonne was a little annoyed. “Who are you calling an idiot? I was just caught off guard by your question...”“You’re just feeling guilty, aren’t you?” Henry shot her a cold glance, then opened the small fridge. He took out a can of cold beer and tossed it to her. “Use this on it. Wouldn’t want Grandpa to see it and think I did that to you.”“Wasn’t that what happened?” Yvonne muttered under her breath.That didn’t escape Henry’s ears and he gave her the silent stare.Yvonne shrank in her seat and said nothing else.The man looked away, then tapped his finger on the steering wheel. “Spill it.

One week of being a husband, an unexpected incident occurred. To be precise this morning, when Sean was getting ready to leave for his office.“So I go to school without wearing sanitary napkins ?! Later, if the blood is translucent, how about it, uncle?”Anjani comes in months, and Sean doesn’t know what to do.“You can use the tissue first!”“Uncle thinks my vagina is bleeding!”Sean growled, “So what should I do?” Sean asked trying to be calm, but believe me, his chest is rumbling violently with the emotion he’s holding back.Anjani crossed her chest, staring irritably at the insensitive Sean, “Buy me a sanitary napkin, the one with wings.”“Hah?!” Sean’s eyes opened wide, his jaw dropped at once upon hearing Anjani’s request.
