30: Visitor

Ivanna was eating her breakfast.
"This looks yummy." she said.
She started to take a bite and chew, Ash went to take a bath and changed to his clothes for house. Ivanna just remembered what she did last night, touching his face.
"Jesus." she blinks too much.
It was good for her, Ash didn't caught her or else she's doomed. She made her self some milk.
"Candice, Please stay polite later." he told her.
Ivanna was curious, why does she needs to stay polite with Andrea?
"Okay, whatever." she said, but he didn't hear it.
Ash was finished eating her breakfast, she tied her hair and went to their backyard to water her plants. Ash was staring her from the glass door and window inside, smirking.
"She really loves her plants." he said.
Ivanna didn't ignore him. Rhea stops by at the cake shop to grabs some strawberry cake.
"I knew Ash will gonna love this." she said.
She paid and left, she notified or informed Ash that she's on her way. She wanted Ezekiel to come but she wanted to have more time with Liam. Later, she had arrived at the gate of the subdivision.
"Wow, this place is nice." she said.
And she was thinking that she' going to buy some house there.
"It might be expensive." she sighed.
She called Liam that she's already at the gate, Liam told her to ask the guard to point the direction towards them. Ivanna was staring at him.
"That must be Andrea." she said.
Ivanna rolled her eyes, that they'll be expecting a visitor but she guess it just her husband's visitor.
Later, Andrea just arrived, she parked her car in front of their house. Ash went out to welcome her, Ivanna was just inside waiting for them to come in. Andrea saw her, and she fakely smiled. Ivanna saw the fakeness to her smile so she just smiled at her.
"Hi, nice to see you again." Rhea told, kissed her cheek.
"Nice to see you, too." Ivanna replied back.
Ash was smiling thinking that they could get along well together. Ash took the cake and decided to slice it for them, Andrea was touring her eyes around the house.
"So, Ivanna, right?" Andrea asked.
Ivanna doesn't know but she noticed a rudeness at her tone.
"Yes." Ivanna smiled.
Andrea saw their wedding photo, she went near it and grinned. In her mind, she was thinking that, that should be her in Ash's arms. Ivanna saw how she holds tightly the edge of their dress.
"Are you okay?" Ivanna, politely asked.
"Yeah, you look beautiful here and of course Ash will always be dashing." Rhea said.
"Yeah." Ivanna said.
Rhea faced her and Ivanna was shocked when Rhea was glaring at her.
"Rhea, Is everything okay?" she asked.
Ivanna doesn't know what's wrong.
"Nothing, and please don't call me Rhea. We're not even close." she said firmly.
Ivanna was stunned, she thought she was so nice like what Ash told her.
"I'm sorry." she said.
Ash saw them.
"Is everything okay?" he asked.
Rhea smiled fast and faced him.
"Oh yeah, we're just having a little talk." Rhea said.
Ash was holding a tray of strawberry cake and juices for the three of them. Ivanna was still shocked, she didn't dare to move from where she stands.
"Candice, what are you still standing there? Come on." her husband told her.
Ivanna went to sit with them, she was facing Rhea who was sneeking up on her. Ivanna was stunned to see the cake.
"Try it, Ash. I knew it's your favorite still." Rhea said.
Ash smiled after taking a bite on it.
"Yeah, it hasn't changed." he said.
Ivanna was just staring and watching them, they were like a couple and she knew that Rhea was flirting with her husband.
"Do you still remember the time when we ate strawberry cake at the park without any fork and spoon." Rhea asked him, very laughing out loud.
Ash went to laughed at her.
"So, they invited me here to join them to watch them flirting." Ivanna said to her mind.
She saw how Ash smiled and laughed, he never saw that smile and laugh while with her. She started to be jealous.
"Yeah, and the icing was all over your face." he said.
They laughed together and Rhea stopped when she saw her went mute.
"Oh, I'm sorry Ivanna. I forgot you're here." Rhea said, jokingly.
Ivanna just smiled bitterly at them. Ash noticed that she didn't eat her cake even a single bite.
"Candice, why aren't you eating your cake? It's so delicious." he told her.
Ivanna went mute, staring at him.
"Ash, I'm allergic to strawberries." she said.
Ash eyes went wide, Rhea frowned.
"Oh, I didn't know that." Rhea groaned.
Ash grabs her cake and puts in front of her, he was guilty that he almost get his wife into danger.
"I'm sorry." he said.
"It's okay, Uhm, I'm just going to the garden and you two have fun." she told them and left..
Ash watch her walking away, Ivanna chooses to do her chores than to entertain Ash's plastic friend.
"She's so plastic, I thought she's nice as he said." she whispers.
She talks to herself while taking out the dried leaves on her plants.
"Ash, I didn't know, that you're wife is allergic to strawberry and you too don't know it?" Rhea asked him.
Ash was being offended.
"Yeah, she never told me." he said.
Rhea smirked.
"I know you don't want to know her more better, and besides you still love me." she said.
Ash was stunned with what she said.
"Uhmm Rhea, you might got it wrong. I know, the kiss yesterday is just a mistake. We're just both taken away, Admit it." he said.
Rhea was being downed, her feelings was being ignored and she just manages to smile.
"I'm sorry." she said.
Ash just smiled and reassured her to feel comfortable with him.
