The day was wonderful and sia couldn’t help but smile occasionally, the man has gone all out just to make her happy and was doing every little thing a good husband would do to make his wife happy and Sia was that wife who felt guilty again for how badly she had treated him the past few days. Her morning was okay because they had gone to one of the city’s well-known mall, according to him, he wanted her to get whatever she needed either for the family or herself and of course they had to get some toys and clothes for little Diego. To Sia’s surprise, Emiliano had made sure to book the entire large mall just for the two of them. Sis saw no need to do such a thing, but Emiliano gave her ridiculous excuses that made him to get rid of other people.
After buying a few nice things for her family, Emiliano’s family and of course her best friend rhea Mario and troublesome Angelo, sia and Emiliano decided to go for lunch at a restaurant. It was simple and nice, not to forget the nice food she loved. Sia had chatted with Emiliano with ease, it was almost as if she was slowly opening up to him. After a peaceful lunch, she dragged him to get some roadside ice cream, Emiliano was not a fan of street food but for sia he was willing to put his pride aside and made his wife happy. It was too good to be truthful but sia was carefree as she enjoyed her day so did Emiliano.
The day was not over yet but Emiliano decided they went back to the old mansion instead of going back to the hotel. Sia had found the mansion a bit quiet and since Armando and Erin had gone back to their country Sia felt a little lonely, but she had Emiliano who was surprisingly focusing on her, not his business which he came to the city for.
“Yes rhea everything is fine”sia said over the phone to Rhea as she walked out of the bathroom in a white towel wrapped around the body with wet hair falling in waves, she was from taking a hot shower after a long day while Emiliano took his first and headed downstairs saying he had so urgent work to attend to, and immediately she remembered to switch on her phone she received a call from Rhea.
“I’ll call you tomorrow sweetie”sia said with a chuckle and disconnected the call and threw the phone on the bed and walked to the closet. Apparently, their clothes were brought to the old mansion; however, she didn’t know what to wear. It was late, and a night dress would do the trick but finding a good one was something she wanted so bay, and hence she settled for a black short night dress with a small slit in front of straps. Sia looked at herself in the mirror and sighed, it was nothing to get attention for but the little thing seemed like trouble.
“I’ll wear you”she said to the dress and dropped the towel to the floor and wore the night dress. Her phone buzzed, and she picked it up only to find(“if you are done come out”)it was from Emiliano and immediately sia didn’t even bother to brush her hair or dry it but wore her fluffy flip-flops and walked out if the room.
Sia walked to where Emiliano had told her to go and since the mansion was large, she was careful not to get lost hence in no time she saw where there was light and strode there.
“It’s about time”she heard Emiliano say and sia frowned as she walked in and was amazed by the scene, it was nothing glamorous, but the place was rather breathtaking from there was a small pool with red rose petals floating above, a few chairs to sit on and bright lamps to give the place its vibrant lights.
“Wow its amazing”she pushed her hair back and walked to Emiliano who was by a barbecue, the man looked at her and smirked.
“I see you had your reason for taking so much time huh”he remarked with a smirk as he scanned her from head to toe and gave a playful wink that had sia’s eyes and cheeks turning tomato red as she blushed feeling like a newlywed. Emiliano saw her red cheeks and chuckled, not used to seeing her blush so much,, but he had to admit she was looking gorgeous in whatever she was wearing. Sia knew she wasn’t looking that bad, and also her husband wore something comfortable. Gray sweatpants without a shirt and was busy showing off his abs, it was trouble however she ignored him and walked to check on whatever he was busy making.
“How come you are not a vegetarian?”sia asked with a friend because she had noticed granny and Vince were vegetarians but Emiliano and Carmen were not.
“Nah, I prefer not to”he shook his head and focused his eyes on her wet hair. He could help but reach for her hair.
“Looks lovely like this”he murmured and moved back, Sia bit her lower lip awkwardly and nodded.
“I… I thought you had some business matters to attend to”she asked trying to divert her thoughts to something else, Emiliano looked at her for a while then took her by the arm and led her to sit down.
“Are you feeling fine?”Emiliano sat down and sia did to just beside him close enough to him, Emiliano felt her neck with the back of his hand and in her neck and sia was surprised.
“Y… yeah”she replied and moved away from his touch, she felt fine so why was he asking her if she were fine.
“I’m glad… you look beautiful”the man whispered while rubbing his rub in crickets on her bar back and sia frowned more at his sudden change of behavior, a few seconds ago he was winking and smirking, but now he was so serious.
“Did you make all this?”she asked nervously trying to keep her eyes off him and Emiliano nodded lightly.
“I still don’t really know what you like mostly, so I… well… this is it”he remarked with stammers and Sia smiled far tly and scanned her surroundings with warmness in her eyes.
“Thanks, I love it… its just what I like”it was the truth she loved everything Emiliano did for her was something she would treasure for life.
“Then I’m happy, I wasn’t sure considering the fact you are a bit hard to figure out”he chuckled and got up from the sofa, sia pouted as she grabbed his hand and made him sit back down and the man laughed even more.
“I love simple things okay… I’m not some typical spoiled rich girl… I’m easy to please”she bent him t. down to her level and whispered close to his ear, her hot breath brushing against his skin, but Emiliano was in full control.
“Really? Was that why you chose Logan as your life partner”he asked with a frown, he knew Logan and his wife had some past which left the other man utterly obsessed with Sia, and he hated it very much.
“What are you trying to say?”she preferred not to bring a topic which would affect them in any way and talking about Logan was that topic.
“D… did you ever have any feelings for him?”he was clear with his question and sia observed him for a while, and again she was confused why was he asking her such questions.
“Logan is a nice man… any woman in her right senses would fall for him… he is a good friend of mine and someone I trust”she said without looking at him and Emiliano clenched his fist in anger, he hated every second he heard sia praising Logan, but he wanted to find out if ever she had anything for him
“Do you think he would have made you happy… was he everything you wanted back then?”
“Emiliano… I dont see why…”
“Just answer me… I know I took you away from him but he didn’t deserve you in the slightest”his voice was calm but the anger sia sensed was something she was trying to avoid.
“I’m with you now and that’s important”she said boldly and emiliano instantly grabbed the back of her head and oulled her close to him.
“I hate every second of his existence… every time I feel you still have a soft spot for him in your heart… I despise him even more”his grip on her was tight andsia was looking straight in his eyes, every bitter word he was saying was written in his eyes and it was clear Emiliano hated logan more than anything but why? she already made it clear what he meant to her but what was it, was it his obsession or possessiveness towards her?
