Chapter 56 Marco And His Temper
MARCO
This night was wonderful. I never expected it to be like this, I couldn't ask the Almighty for more, this is enough, this is more than enough. I have my family now and this is what I want, this is what I dreamed. Loving her is revenge but it is a sign of immaturity that I did not just accept her reasons due to my rage and vengeance but now I have to do what is the right thing. I trailed my hands on her beautiful face while she's asleep.
The moonlight struck her beautiful face which made her even more attractive. Why didn't I listen to her before? If I have just listened we wouldn't be in this situation.
I sat down in bed and was careful to get up because I didn't want to wake her up from a deep sleep. I looked for my phone and dialed Adam, I wanted them to know everything and within a second ring, he answered it.
"Marco, you called? Is there a problem?" he asked as I smiled.
"Is it a problem right away?" I asked and I heard him chuckled at the second line.
"Man, what's up?"
"Mirana and I are together now with our son," I said, which makes the second line go silent.
"Adam?"
"I'm here, I'm just lost of words. Really? Do you know how happy I am Marco huh? Marina's prayers were answered, she prayed and prayed that someday you and her twin will find peace. Kamusta si baby Zeke? I want to meet him and also Marina wants to meet that young boy together with his cousins."
"I know Adam, I don't even know where I got the courage for it. If it had been Adam then-"
"Stop Marco everything happens for a good reason. What's important is now and the future. Want us to come over?"
"Too far."
"As long as it is Boracay no one can resist it," he said and we both chuckled, easing. I don't feel like sleeping because I feel happy now.
"What's the plan?"
"Help me to prepare."
"Birthday party?"
"Adam"
"You're too serious, relax man. Once we get there, I, Marina and the kids will help you out."
"Thanks, man, you know what I think I want to settle. This is what our father's want to have a family so we can handle the company better. I already found my happiness, Adam."
"Now you just know Marco. Marina is going to be so happy when I get to tell her this. It's been a while since they saw each other. Take care of Mirana and your son Marco and don't make the same mistake twice like I did okay?"
"Got it. So I'll wait for you all here. Take care."
"Bye"
As soon as I ended the call I took the black velvet box out of the pocket of my pants for a long time to hide it at home because I couldn't give it to her. She wanted a simple ring-like sister but I wanted to give her a diamond ring she deserves more after all I have done to her. I can't explain the happiness in my heart, to be with my child and to be with my wife. I was about to walk in Miranda's direction when my phone beep, it's Rosso.
Rosso:
We have a problem. Ashly's coming.

ASHLY
"What the fuck!" I threw my wine glass in front of Yva and what else do you expect this girl to react to? She hysterically looks at her face and body.
"What the fuck Ashly!" I know she's mad at me but I don't have time for that.
"Kill yourself, babe."
"I'm not like you."
"What do you mean?"
"Forget it. So what's your plan?"
"As usual, kill her or kill her son."
"Pit of advice babe, as long as you are living in this world all of your doings are written and cannot be erased. Maybe you couldn't understand why I am like this why I am bringing this out or why I am telling you this but I just wanted you to know that I am your friend and I care for you even though you have committed sins and sins and sins. It's better to kill Mirana than her son, that boy has so many dreams to make in the future. But it can be good or bad too, good if he'll pursue his dreams or bad if you'll kill her mother it'll bring him sadness till his old. You know what I mean," she stated, which made me frown.
"Look at me Ash, tell me why are you like that?"
"What are you talking about Yva?"
"Think about it. I'm just in the room, I want to rest. But if you change your mind can you tell me your answer okay babe?"
"Weirdo"
I looked at the glass window and it was raining. Busy streets where people were coming and they were coming. I used to be like them, a busy person. Why did I become this way? Why do I have this feeling that another person is living inside me, I hate this feeling. Suddenly I remembered Yva's words.
"Pit of advice babe, as long as you are living in this world all of your doings are written and cannot be erased. Maybe you couldn't understand why I am like this why I am bringing this out or why I am telling you this but I just wanted you to know that I am your friend and I care for you even though you have committed sins and sins and sins. It's better to kill Mirana than her son, that boy has so many dreams to make in the future. But it can be good or bad too, good if he'll pursue his dreams or bad if you'll kill her mother it'll bring him sadness till his old. You know what I mean."
"all of your doings are written and cannot be erased"
"all of your doings are written and cannot be erased"
"all of your doings are written and cannot be erased"
"Marco's mine," another voice said as I took the cigarette and hutched it.

MARCO
"Where have you been?" Rosso greeted me while he was having coffee.
"Searching"
"What are you looking for?"
"Why do you have so many questions?"
"Just asking man you're a hot-headed. You're hotter than my coffee."
"Sorry bro, I'm just a little nervous," I said and showed him the small box I was carrying. I've been looking for it since I thought I didn't bring it. I'm so glad I forget this thing.
"Are you sure that you are doing it?"
"Yes"
"Better be because if this is all an act Marco I don't want to be friends with you anymore," he said in a serious tone of voice as he sipped his coffee.
"All my life this is the most serious thing I will ever do. I was just crazy and I just swallowed revenge. Mirana deserves more, she deserves everything together with our son and no one will get in my way"
"Oh yeah? What about Ashly?"
"She will know her place."
"You better made sure of that because as far as I know, you've dated a psychopath."
"You're not helping."
"Just saying.
"Are you done talking?"
"So what are your plans?"
"A lot has happened to the two of us and that is because of me."
"Enough talking I want to witness it."
"Do you love her?"
"More than you could ever know Ross."
"That's my man."

MIRANA
I gasped as the door suddenly opened and a man showed up that caused a sped of my heartbeat.
"Marco," I said in a whisper, not looking directly into his eyes. Why is my heart beating like this when I don't drink coffee and I seem to be getting worse.
"I'm sorry," he said looking directly into my eyes and I'm suffocating at the way he stares at me.
Why is it that his eyes are so hypnotizing. She heard the word of apology leave his mouth but it sounds weird, why all of a sudden he's apologizing? But she had to admire his courage after all because not all men could say the word forgiveness with sincerity.
"Why are you here Marco? Do you need anything? Do you want me to cook you? Are you hungry?" I asked if I want to avoid his presence and his contact.
"Don't move, stay there," he commanded and I was like a dog following him. I don't understand but my brain tells me to move but my body does not want to move.
Slowly he approached my direction.
'Move Mirana!'
I raised my eyebrow as I looked at him. I want to slap my face because it seems like I'm still attracting him.
'Shit Mirana move not raising your brow can help you.'
There was something on his mind and that's what made me nervous. I know something has happened between the two of us and there is no way it will ever happen again. I don't feel like this anymore and we don't have one label yet. His gaze was so intense and I felt self-conscious that I tightened my grip on my clothes until he was in front of me. I could smell his minty breath.
"Forgive me for all that I have done to you and our son Mirana, I'll do whatever you say just forgive me. I know I apologized several times to you but it's different now. I love you so much Mirana and I can't help myself if I lose you again and my son. I am not apologizing just because we have a son, I apologize for hurting a woman I love who should not have been hurt. I was only blinded by my desire for revenge, Mirana. I was so upset and so tired that I just woke up. I love you Mirana," he says while looking straight at me I can't come up with words in my mouth and I want to slap myself. I felt a strange caress in my heart and nothing seemed to flow like liquid to my eye that he quickly wiped with his hand.
He leaned closer to me, our faces were now inches from each other and our noses were nearly touching. I felt the electricity between us.
His hands were on me again, those masterful hands. His hands were rubbing against my skin and it seemed like a little while later I was going to eat what I had just said. He pulled me closer to his chest and mouthed a question that sent shivers down my spine.
"Will you marry me?"

MARCO
"Will you marry me?" I asked her, I could not understand how I was feeling at these times. I'm nervous that it's not easy but I want to know her answer. I looked at her face and the longer I stared at her the more I fell on her. Her face gleamed for the only light of the room was the shine of the moon. I want to marry this woman and be mine. Enough of the lies and denials I fucking want to marry her and be true to myself. Please please say yes.
I was immediately startled when she suddenly burst into tears and the one I held in her hand immediately took her hand and covered her face with tears in her eyes. Is she saying no? What did I do? No, no this cannot be happening I don't want to lose her again. What did I do? Is this about Ashly? Did she come here already? Shit! I couldn't even move, nor did I know if I was still breathing.
My tears flowed quickly because I was so desperate that tears came from my eyes as my heart ached. I slowly lowered my hands and was ready to leave. I was about to step back as she suddenly pulled my hand and I felt her head on my chest and her tears continued to flow, as I felt the wetness of my shirt.
"Yes, yes I'll marry you. I have waited for this in my entire life that I almost thought that this is not going to happen. I thought you had lost all your love for me in the past, thinking that I didn't deserve to be loved for the things I had done before. I thought I didn't deserve to be respected and felt that I was not a woman and now a mother. I thought I would never experience the love of a man I love and love me too. The amount I think Marco you don't know but my mind is full of questions. You do not know how much I love Marco, you do not know that every day I see our son almost like me I cannot help but not knowing that he is also searching for his father, " she sobs and it hurts me to see her cry.
"Shhh please don't cry Mirana please I don't want to see you like this. Your doubts are making me weak. You're making me weak. You deserve more Mirana more than you could ever know. I treated you like trash, I treated you like a hoe and I want to make it up to you. Please let me do my job to love you, let me enter into your life. I give you this ring as a sign of my love: the moon and stars are the witnesses of our love. I love you to the moon and back Mirana. I love you," As I said those words her lips landed on mine and we savor each other. Her lips were sweet and I can't help myself to explore her mouth as she catches her breath.
"Marco"
"Mirana"
"Don't you regret doing this?"
"I love you and why would I regret it? I would probably regret it if I left you and our child. So I'll marry you this week," I said and she seemed surprised at my announcement. You can't blame me. I want her now and forever together with our child, together with Zeke.
"Did you know that the first time I saw Zeke I felt more like a father? I know it sounds weird but fell in love with the both of you. I want to have a life with both of you. Can I?"
"Yes," she replied and her tears flowed again which I immediately wiped with my hand. God, she breaks my heart every time she tears. Why did revenge blind me? This is the woman I left behind, this is the face of the woman I left behind with carrying pain. How cruel I am.
"Yes, I want to be with you and Zeke. I want to have a family that I will never be alone. Please don't leave me again," she sobs at my shoulder.
"I won't dare. So again will you marry me?"
"I do," she chuckled as she answered me, I pulled her even closer and kissed her hungrily. I was so eager for her lips that I had been staring at her. This is now my wife.
I caressed her back and heard her moan.
"Take me tonight Marco."
"Where?" my inside is bulging out as I heard her moan.
"In your arms and yours," she breathed as she touched the zipper of my trouser.
"naughty"
I suddenly notice that she is not even wearing a bra, just her silky nighties and lacy underwear. She immediately stripped off her nighties and left her wearing her underwear. I slowly knelt in front of her and I bit her underwear and pulled it down and now she is all naked. I look at her with lust and lick her mound. She immediately landed her hand in my hair and pulled it as she moaned.
"Ahhhh Marco please."
"Tonight you're mine completely and I'm yours. "
I inserted my index finger inside her and pumped her that caused her to go wild as she grips my hair harder. I opened her core widely and licked her even more. She grabs my hand and lets me stand that makes me confused for I am not done yet. She unzipped my pants and pulled it down together with my boxer. I am now hard on her.
She licked the top of it that made me groan and completely suck it harder and faster.
"Shit"
I lifted her at the mattress and we did it again and again.
