my first kiss

My eyes wide open.

I can't move, I'll be stuck with his lips!

Lubdub!

Lubdub!

The only thing I could hear was the pounding of my chest because of the shock I felt. Why is it like this?

-Creakkkkk.

I was surprised when the door was completely closed so I pushed Hellios without my own.

"the show is done, you can go to your room" he said as if nothing had happened.

I can't believe I'm just looking at him, that's all? That was my first kiss? He stole it. then it was just shown! Oh god!!! I really wanna punch him right now right here!!

"have you been doing this while?" I unconsciously asked. Oh shot! I cover my cheeks using my two hands.

"You are the first woman I chose for myself" he coldly said.

i suddenly stunned, when my chest started trembling unexpectedly.

"please don't make me repeat myself for the second time" he annoyingly stated.

I gave him a wry smile,

"Well, then I'm honored" I tried to lighten the awkwardness.

"Well, the thing is you volunteered this" he retorted and mocked my state.

I gritted my teeth and clenched my fist simply this man is getting on my nerves right now!

I adjusted my sout nightgown walked into my room but before I could turn the doorknob.

I turned my back and reminded him.

"Well.. Looks like I touched your bed"

"it doesn't matter, I'll just send him away tomorrow" he dismissively said.

Throw away? It means..

Does he really hate women that much?

"oops, you can throw the bed but how about the.." I stopped for a while and he growled.

"your lips? I touched it too?" I asked innocently going down to the book he was holding.

Hellios expression instantly darkened.

"So should I throw you away too? He coldly threatened.

" Well, if you can that'll be great. " I said in fake a cherry tone.

And I immediately run towards my room before hellios could do anything dangerous, because brother hellios is crazy about my sisters.

It's up to him, he'll be annoyed with me whenever he wants but I don't care HAHAHA!

cont.

EARLY in the morning I prepared the breakfast with the servants and served it in the dining hall. I admit that when I woke up, I was amazed at the beauty of their kitchen, especially their dining room, which was really big enough to fit twenty people at the dining table.

"Thanks, manang cely", I smiled as I thanked him as he put down the last meal I cooked, and I made tea because I found out that coffee is not a trend with them, which is fine with me.

I was about to prepare tea for the four of them when I saw my father in law.

"Good morning dad." I greeted him with an angelic smile.

Hellios father's sitting in front of me.

he asked me in surprise.

"What did you call me?"

"dad "I repeated, this time is softer I'm afraid that I might offend him so I'm not looking at him either.

"Good! Good! Good!" he chuckled and quickly took the cup of tea.

I sighed of relief, I thought I would offend him because I felt close AHAHA

Hellious's mother also came and sat next to her husband. I handed the other cup of tea and gave it to my mother in law.

"mom please have a cup of tea" I offered.

Mom was happily took the cup of tea and she drank the tea and held my hand which made me shocked.

"do you know?" she sips the tea again.

"My previous wives of hellios they didn't call me Mom, and your the only one who treats us own family" she greetingly said so I smiled at her mom's response.

I feel like I found a new parent because of their personality, Hellios' parents are actually kind, even Daphne, but come to think of it, how come Hellios's coldness and bad attitude if he has a family like this.

"don't be happy so soon" hellios tone was like ice cold.

I was stunned, I didn't notice that he had come down.

I glanced with a half smile but he just looked at me with his cold stare before he went upstairs again.

I sighed at what Hellios was doing then drank my tea, can I handle it when Hellios behaves like that?

I mean I can't hang him because of your brother's attitude, chongs!

It's very cold in the morning, even colder than your relationship, chour!

I was surprised when his mother sat beside me while I'm still holding the cup of tea so, I sip again but..

"Did you enjoy last night" he asked me in a low tone.

I automatically blew out the tea I drank, besides being surprised, I was burned badly! Dad handed me a tissue so I quickly accepted it and wiped my lips.

"Careful hija" dad reminded.

"So, hiha, did you enjoy yourself last night?" mom asked again jusme! Repeatedly.

I bowed down, that's really king hellios! I feel like my face is red from embarrassment.

"Well..." I started hesitantly. I don't know what to say!

"It's quite good" in a low voice said.

"Did you...?" mom's eyes were brightened. She looked into my eyes and said.

"I saw both of you kissing" I remained silent because of mom said.

except that, I don't know what to say because our kissing scene I lost my first kiss flashed back in my brain, while there were pairs of eyes looking at us.

There and then, I wished nothing more to run into myself in the wall and die on the spot!

i blushed and lowered my head because of the 'embarrassing'

Fortunately, a cheerful and sweet voice appeared, I was able to rest easy thanks to daphne's appearance because I was saved from embarrassment.

"Good morning everyone" Daphne ran into the dining room and greeted everyone.

"Good morning!" I greeted her back with a cheerful voice.

Mom looked at me with a smile and didn't continue to ask the question which is fine with me.

Mom ordered Daphne, "Call your brother first so we can have breakfast."

"I don't want" she refused.

"It's just me" I answered Immediately then stood up easily.

I opened the door of the bedroom.

"It's time to have breakfast. Mom asked you to go downstairs"

"Mom?" he asked me with a frown so I quickly nodded to him.

"Since when did you get so close to my family?" helios said and stared at me.

I'm a little offended, guys,

"As you wish, you got married into a rich and powerful family. Were you so excited that you didn't sleep the whole night?"

"Yes" I still remained calm.

"Looks like you know women well"

"No, but the dark circles under your eyes say it all. you should explain yourself when you go downstairs, so that they wouldn't think I've done something to you"

I did not utter a word.

I'm a shot mamen, maybe that's why mom's question was really a pest!

I cleared my throat.

"Mom has already asked me if we did something last night.". I said seriously to him.

As expected, he asked with a slightly somber expression.

"And how did you answer that?"

I sighed first.

"I didn't answer. Daphne appeared and interrupted the conversation. She saved my life from embarrassment"

"Then did my mother...." i cut him off because i already know what he will say.

"You kissed me last night. Do you still want to pretend that you didn't do anything to me" I said irritated.

This time, hellios look like his tongue-tied for a seconds so my mood is happy men,

hellios held me by my shoulders, and was about to argue back to me but I twitched my lips and smirked.

Gleefully, I shook his hands off and dragged him downstairs.

I finally got him, I simply grinned while walking downstairs.

A Ly Ssa Cont.

we had breakfast quietly with a smile on my face because this is my first time that I ate together at the table in the mansion because I was always separated from my dad, they never asked me and invited me to come over and eat with them.

after I grew up and I was diagnosed with serious gastritis many years later, I realized dignity was not something worth defending for. No one would ever feel sorry for me.

I kept everything that happened all to myself.

"Why aren't you eating? are you not feeling well or you don't like the food?"mom asked and her voice full of concern which is turning back to my senses.

"No! No" I immediately answered and started digging in.

The food was warm and scrumptious, was warm as the family affection the Larckstones was giving to me except my husband duh,

"You are going to visit Fime's Family with her later. I ask...." hellios cut her off.

How rude this man is nice to spank men!

"I don't have the time" Hellios refused coldly without thinking.

Dad frowned. "You should not use being busy as an excuse"

"Dad, this is my sixth marriage. we don't have to abide by all the traditions as in the first marriage, do we?" he un-politely said

"You...." dad put down his utensils and chided hellios angrily,

"this is Fime's first marriage."

"Dad it doesn't matter" watching an argument sparkling, I immediately tried to ease the situation.

"My family won't mind, so it's fine. I have to go to work too" I calmly said.

"Work?" Mom curiously asked

"What do you do?" she added.

I don't have anything to hide from my job because I come from a wealth family, anyway, my dad doesn't spare me when he comes to my school, so I choose great course.

"I'm an interior designer"

"Ah, what a nice job hija" mom said with a smile.

"Thanks" I answered sparingly.

"do you have your own firm? or your working with someone?" Daphne asked curiously.

"I have plans to build my own firm but for now I'm working with someone"

"Oh, okay! Let hellios take you to your work after breakfast" dad.

"It's troublesome" he refuses without any expression.

Mom glared at him.

"How can you say that your husband hasn't told you yet?"

"no matter where she is going, it's going to be troublesome" hellios did not give in and replied at once.

I sighed here we go again they are fighting again Once again I came to ease the situation.

"Don't worry, I can commute and I'll just send my car" I told them. Mom glanced at me.

"Commute?" Mom was shocked like I said a horrible word

"How can the daughter-in-law of the Larckstones squeeze herself in a crowded transportation. I'll arrange.."

"No, No" I rejected mom's offer and shook my head.

"I can commute mom, just keeps things low"

"But..." dad cut her off

"Let's not make things difficult to her" dad said so I smiled at him and mom remained quiet and did not say anything more.

to be honest, I felt touched by my in-laws consideration

at the same time, I also felt a little guilty because the purpose of being married to the Larckstone family was.....

After breakfast, I followed Hellios out of the house.

"Next time, leave the house ten minutes after me." hellios folded his arms and sad to me. He was very hostile.

"Are you upset that I am still working even after being married to you?" I asked in confusion.

"Huh?" and shook his head.

"Don't fall all over yourself" He stared into my eyes and warned me,

"Remember whatever you do has nothing to do with me unless you have an affair with someone else!" Then he left.

Did he warn me right?

Oh! maybe he already fell for me but I immediately slapped my forehead, we haven't even known each other for 1 week and then he will fall for me right away It's big big big NO! ts.
