Chapter 29: Chapter 29

‘I love you.’

‘I love you.’

He looked at me and seemed to be waiting for me to speak.

“Ahhh... do I have to say I love you too?” I asked in astonishment, and even looked him in the eye. He just frowned at me as well.

“O-Okay! I... lov... love you too,” I shuttered and kissed him smack on the lips.

“Oh! S-Sorry-- hmm...” he deepened the kiss even more. I couldn’t help but respond to each of his kisses.

We sighed when our lips parted. “I’ll let you go for today, just only now Alyana, but tomorrow morning I’m going to f**k you hard as I ever--” I covered his mouth.

“Y-Yeah, just don’t say that nasty Stephen!” He kissed me on the forehead, then hugged me tightly.

Every time he kisses me on the forehead, my heartbeat suddenly speeds up...and I suddenly remember that I don’t have heart disease?

I just shook and went to sleep.

_

I woke up feeling like someone was kissing my lips.

“Finally, you wake up!” He sighed. He was now sitting on the side of the bed. I got up and rubbed my eyes.

“I’m sorry, my sleep was too good--“

“It’s okay, that’s great, honestly. You’re not always dreaming like before, but last night I could see that you’re sound asleep, you’re even smiling.”

“Smiling? Me?” He nodded, then laughed, but he also stopped and looked me seriously in the eye.

“Who did you dream of? Is that a man? Who is that...was it Xenon?” He asked one question after another. I swallowed and bit my lip because I didn’t know what to say.

‘Dreamed? Did I have a dream last night? ‘ I asked in my mind.

My eyes widened when I remembered that.

It’s embarrassing if I tell him! Why did I dream that? It’s impossible for that to happen!

“Just say it to me.” It says it seriously.

“Uhm, it’s not. Xenon is not the one I dreamed of.”

“Don’t lie Alyana, I don’t like women who lie.” I’m telling the truth, I didn’t dream of Xenon. what’s the problem with this man.

“Because I was dreaming about us getting married, then us having three kids, and in that dream, we were so happy.” I hurriedly said.

“What?! I don’t understand you, you were talking so fast, that all I can hear is the word ‘So happy’.”

“Then next time listen to me carefully, I don’t wanna repeat myself because it is embarrassing!” I pouted.

“Repeat what you’ve said.” He firmly muttered.

“I said… I was dreaming about-- About us getting married, then us having three kids and in that dream, I saw us, so happy.” I look down, then bite my lips because I am completely flustered.

‘Will he get angry at me? But why do I feel that He was smiling at me?’ My gut tells me.

I tilt my head a little and then I saw he smirked, but it quickly fades when he saw that I was looking at him.

Then he clears his throat before talking.

“Eat your breakfast,” he said.

“Just me?”

“Yes, I’m done eating.” Tsk, He didn’t even wait for me?

“Are you awake for the past hours? What time is it already?” I asked.

“Tsk, I can’t sleep because of you. My belly hurts last night.” I hear him say.

Is it because of me? Why, what did I do? And why is his belly hurting? Hmm, maybe he’s having an LBM. But he could just go to the toilet. Why is it becoming my fault!

He stands up, so I followed him.

“Uhm, Stephen, what time is it?

“It’s already past 9… wait, do you have a phone? Why don’t you check --“ He stops talking then looks at me.

“I don’t have a phone.” I shrugged.

“You can’t even afford a phone? I saw a phone on the table when I was at your house. Who owns it?”

“It was my Si Kelly’s cellphone.” In the three of us, I was the only one who didn’t own a phone.

“So where does that Kelly work so that I can find a way to get her fired at her job.” Fire? I want to laugh at him, but he looks so serious.

“She doesn’t have work.”

“How about that guy?”

“Who? Keil? He also doesn’t have a job.”

“What the f**k? How about your stepmom? What is her work?” He asks me but I just look down, telling him that my stepmom also has no work.

“Don’t tell me you were the only one who’s working, and that you were the one who’s feeding those sh*ts!?”

“Yes, I am..” I was taken aback when he suddenly pulled me close to him, then hug me so tight.

“Were you in college when you started all this kind of works?

“Ever since I was in third grade.”

“At your age, you should be having all this kind of happiness, not tiring yourself out.”

“If I am not going to work, there will be no food on the table, so it’s fine.”

“It’s not okay. It is not even your responsibility! Yes, it’s okay that you help do the house chores but to feed them with your own money, Alyana, that’s not right! While you were busy tiring yourself out, they were there busy pleasing with their self. I wanna punch them right now!”

“Don’t you know how to get angry?!” He added.

“I know how to get angry but...” I bite my nails thinking of what should I say to him.

“You should have just slapped each of them.”

“That’s too much, I can’t do that to them!”

The truth is, I was just holding myself back. I don’t want to hurt anyone, especially my family.

“You can’t do it to them, but when it comes to me, you can!! Then I remembered that time that I slap him in the face, but it was because of my anger.

“Stephen, it’s different...”

“I just throw your things Alyana! And them they hurt you! Physically! So unfair!” His voice sounds so annoyed.

I quickly followed him, and I was having second thought if I should ask him.

“Are you angry?”

“No.” I shivered at his cold tone.

“You’re angry.”

“I’m not!” Now I’m surprised that I didn’t get scared of his voice. Maybe I’m getting used to it already, I guess?

“Obviously you’re angry.” He then sits in the chair and I can see the food that he prepared for me… is it for me?

“So what do people do when someone’s angry at them? They make up with them Alyana!” I can sense that he is frustrated based on the tone of his voice.

“Wait, Stephen! Where’s your wings! I ask him, then sit beside him.

_

Stephen Wilson’s Pov.

“Say What?” I ask her, confusedly. Why is she talking about wings? Do I look like a bird to her, huh? She’s making me mad at her more if she keeps doing that!

I wanted her to make up with me, but why is this girl trying to annoy me more!

“I really thought you were an angel who falls from heaven.” My mouth was slightly open because of what she said.

What? Angel?! Wait, is she trying to hit some pickups on me?

“I’m not an electrician, but I can light up your day.”

Oh, f**k! What the heck did she do? It’s just not my thing, but why does my heart beat fast in everything that she said.
