Chapter 5


    Isabe woke up the next morning and saw Tyron buttoning his shirt dress, she also notices that his


    hair is wet. She put herself up sitting and leaned on the headrest.


    “Morning…” She greeted but Tyron just stared at her with his cold eyes. “What…what time did you


    “Why do you care?” Tyron coldly asked as he buttons his shirt dress.


    “I…I am just worried.” She softly answered.


    “Why are you worried?” He asked. “Worried that something happened to me or worried that I am


    fucking some woman out there?” He added with seriousness and coldness in his voice. His eyes are


    even filled with rage and anger.


    “No, it’s not like that.” She answered as she stood up from the bed and slowly approach him. “I…”


    “Oh, fuck it, Isabe!” Tyron shouted shutting her up. “If you don’t have any other thing to say aside


    from using me of messing around and disrespecting this marriage then it is best if you just shut up


    and don’t say a word.” He snapped making her flinch, she didn’t expect that him to act that way. Tyron


    sighed at the look of her face. “I’m sorry, Isabe if I raised my voice, it’s just that I’m exhausted and I


    …” he let out a heavy sigh. “I’m off to work.” He said before grabbing his suit and shutting the door


    close.


    Isabe is left there alone, confused and feeling pain. With a heavy heart, she took a bath and change


    for work. It is already seven thirty and Hal will pick her up at eight.


    She went to the kitchen to make herself a cup coffee when she saw Rose cleaning on the living room.


    “Good morning, Ma’am.” Rose greeted as soon as she saw her.


    “Good morning too.” She smiled.


    “Would you like to have breakfast?” Rose asked, turning the vacuum off.


    “No, I’m good. I will just drink coffee.” She answered. “My manager will pick me up anytime now.” She


    added and Rose nodded. “Just continue what you are doing, I will make my own coffee.” She added


    before going to the kitchen.


    She saw Nana Helen at the kitchen slicing varieties of vegetables.


    “Good morning, Nana Helen.” She greeted as she grabs a mug.


    “Did you fight with Tyron again?” Nana Helen asked making her flinch. “don’t get me wrong, I heard you


    two earlier.”


    “Nana Helen…”


    “Your husband worked nonstop for two months so that he can have a leave for a week or so to spent it


    with you.” Nana Helen said making her eyes go wide.


    “I didn’t know that… he didn’t mention it.” She said then she remembered that he didn’t go to work


    yesterday and that bouquet of choctes. “Oh, gosh! What have I done?” She asked herself and bit


    her lower lip.


    “I don’t mean to pry in your married life but have some faith on Tyron.” Nana Helen said before leaving


    her alone in the kitchen.


    “So, how’s your break yesterday?” Hal asked while driving. “I hope you did rest well because you’re


    fully pack today until next week.”


    “Yeah, I did.” She answered but she can’t help not to blush when she remembered how Tyron took her.


    It was mind-blowing and it was so different from their first night.


    “Heh, you’re blushing, beks!” Hal teased when he saw the redness of her cheeks.


    “I am not!” She said, cupping her own cheeks.


    “Yes, you are!” Hal continued to teases her. “So, how is it? Is there a baby Tyron and Isabe on the


    way?” Hal wiggled his brows.


    “Oh,e one, Hal!” She pouted with both cheeks red. “You know that I can’t risk my career.”


    “aha! So, you did it!” Hal shrieked making her cover both of her ears.

    “Urg! Stop screaming, beks!” She rolled her eyes while covering both of her ears.


    “Oh, I’m so happy for you, it seems that your husband is respecting your marriage and is trying to make


    it up with you.” Hal said smiling and it make her puzzled.


    “What do you mean?” She asked.


    “Oh, didn’t you know that your husband worked nonstop for the past two months so that he can spend


    more time with you even though it is for a while because of your busy schedule?” Hal asked making her


    frown. She has no idea at all.


    “Where did you heard that from?” She asked.


    “Your husband’s personal assistant, Zarina.” Hal shrugged. “She’s a friend of mine, and she’s present


    at the wedding.”


    “Is that so…” That’s all she could manage to say. “Damn! I really wronged him.” She can’t help not to


    sigh.


    “Why? What happened?” Hal asked.


    “I don’t know if I should be saying this to you but I used him of being with Reina and you know…”


    she sighed and look outside the window. “He is just trying to close the gap between us but I messed it


    up. He has the right to snap at me early this morning.”


    “Aww, I’m sorry to hear that, sweetie.” Hal said, concerned is evident on his voice. “You can call him if


    you want.” Hal said while holding his phone on his other hand.


    “No, I—”


    “Toote, sweetie.” Hal cuts her off as he gives his phone to her, making her eyes grew wide.


    “Wha…what the hell, Hal?” She cursed. Just then the ringing on the phone stop and is reced by a


    female voice.


    “What to do you need, Hal?” It is Tyron’s secretary.


    Hal looked at her raising an eyebrow, his eyes were sending her a message to talk.


    “Hal?”


    “Oh, uhm, hi?” Isabe managed to say and there is a long pause across the phone. She cleared her


    throat before speaking again. “This is Isabe, I believe you were present during my wedding.” She


    heard a gasp on the line.


    “I’m sorry, Ma’am Isabe, I didn’t know that it was you.” Zarina said apologetically.


    “It’s okay, it should be me apologizing for calling so suddenly.” She cleared her throat. “By the way, is


    Tyron there?” She asked.


    “Yes, ma’am, he is at his office.” Zarina answered. “Do you want to talk to him? I can lend the phone to


    him.”


    “Oh, uhm…” she heard Tyron’s voice on the background.


    “Sorry for disturbing, sir, but your wife is on the phone. It seems that she has something to tell you.”


    “Oh, damn!” Isabe softly cursed as she heard Zarina went out and closed the door.


    “What?” Her heart leap out as soon as she heard Tyron’s cold voice.


    “Uhm, I…I just want to…ehm…” She heard Tyron sighed.


    “Look, Isabe, I have pile of work to do so if you have nothing important to say—”


    “oh, yes… I understand. I’m sorry.” She apologized then ending the call before turning to Hal. “Happy


    now, Hal?” She mocked.


    “I’m sorry, sweetie.” Hal said, his face is apologetic.


    Isabe shake her head slightly and sighed.


    “I should not let this affect me or else it would ruin my act.” She said as she goes by the script on her


    “Everything will be okay, Be.” Hal said, trying to reassure her.


    “I hope so.” She sighed. “Or else that grandpa of mine would go insane.”


    “Speaking of, how is Don Samuel?” Hal asked.


    “Who knows, thest time I checked, he didn’t bother calling nor checking up on me.” she shrugs.


    “Oh, I’m sorry about that.” Hal said.


    “Naah, don’t be. I’m used to it.” She said and concentrated on reading her script. She needed be on


    character once the camera start rolling.


    Isabe and Hal are on her dressing room and waiting for Jenny, her make-up artist and Hal’s sister.


    “Where the heck is Jenny?” Hal asked, frowning while pacing back in forth around the room, trying to


    contact his sister.


    “Chill, beks.” Isabe said as she ys an application on her phone. “Calm your nerves and take a


    seat.”


    “But she’s already thirty minuteste.” Halined. “She’s never been thiste and if she is, she


    would give me an heads up.” He sighs, he’s face is shouting that he is worried for his sister.


    “Rx, Hal. She might just be running an errand.” She said, trying to reassure him but Hal didn’t listen,


    he keeps pacing back and forth while cursing.


    “I swear, once that girl shows her ass here, I will pull her hair.” Ha; said making her smile.


    “You really do love your sister.”


    “She’s all I got after our parents’ death.” Hal sighed then on cue; Jenny entered the door.


    “Sorry, I’mte.” Jenny apologized, her face is red and her hair is messy. Hal frown at the sight of her.


    “Damn, Jenny! You smell sex!” Hal bursted making Jenny more flustered.


    “Wh…what are you saying?” Jenny asked, flustered as she walks towards Isabe.


    “You can’t lie to me, Jenny.” Hal slightly shake his head.


    “I don’t know what you are saying.” Jenny said as she approached Isabe. “I’m sorry for beingte, I


    just had an important matter to deal with.” She added and her cheeks slowly turned red.


    “Who is it?” Isabe asked andughed when Jenny’s ears suddenly turned red. “Oh, you gotid.”


    She teased making the poor girl more flustered.


    “Jenny…” Hal sighed. “I don’t care if you want to getid but be on time for work, you made me


    worried.”


    “I know, I’m sorry.” Jenny apologized as she applied alcohol on her hands. “We are not supposed to be


    She cannot hide her happiness.


    “Good for you.” Isabe said. “I’m curious who are you dating.” She said and Jenny averted her eyes


    and started applying make-up on her.


    “Hah, there’s a rumour that Anthony Alvarez is dating a non-showbiz.” Hal said while eyeing at Jenny.


    Jenny seemed flustered and is trying to keep herposure while doing Isabe’s make-up.


    Isabe looked at Hal in the mirror and they both confirmed something, but they just remained silent.


    They will wait for Jenny to open up.


    “So, how is married life, Be?” Jenny asked making her sigh. “What’s with the sigh?” she asked.


    “Nothing.” She forced a smile. “Let’s finish this up quickly since it will be my cue in the next couple of


    minutes.”


    “Okay?” Jenny said and didn’t pry anymore, sensing that she doesn’t want to talk about it.
