Were you mine? Torture
Lea's POV Phill was right. Jake needed to know about the child but deep down I knew exactly what he would be doing. I knew the exact challenge that he was facing. I didn't tell Phill what Rosa had shared when she visited. Jake's agency had already given him the choice - relationship, scandals or a high flying career that had already taken off. I had seen Jake's hesitation when he had received the call from his manager. I didn't want to pester him and he had decided to not talk about it at all. I wanted Jake to know about the child. Of course I did. Why the hell would I not? But I didn't want him to regret the child later on in his life. I want Jake to know about him when he is ready. I told myself that I would raise the child well. I told myself that I was strong enough. I told myself that I was only giving ourselves some time. I was giving Jake the time to concentrate and focus on himself. Even though I had explicitly written in the letter that I left
Were you mine? Sleep
" We can shift him to another room if you have a problem Miss. Rodgers! ” " Oh,No... no no! I didn't know you were moving him beside me. I am absolutely thrilled... I mean I have no problem. Please make him comfortable. ” Mercy jumped up on her bed cutting the nurse off before she could change her mind. " Ok! Great. We will help Jake settle down. He was having trouble sleeping alone. There isn't a single room available with a spare bed. I was meaning to ask you if he could stay the night but you were sleeping, so we decided to erect the partition and let him... "" It's alright. You did the right thing. " Mercy cut her short once more. She was elated at finding none other than the rising superstar Jake beside her side. She was already wrapping up a shoot for her debut musical when her stomach ache landed her in the hospital.She was about to be discharged tomorrow morning after some medication and rest. Jake was her latest role model. She loved his voice, his style, his charismat
Were you mine? Different
Phill's POV I don't know what I was doing with my life. I don't know what Lea was doing to me. I swear I never felt any emotion as strong as my emotions towards Lea. It wasn't merely physical. I mean I am a man after all. I would be lying if I said that her touch, her smile, her head leaning on my shoulder, her lips accidentally brushing against my arms didn't turn me on. Of course it did. But what mattered most for me was her happiness. I wanted to be that relief when she smiled after a long and tiring day. I wanted her to smile with or without me. Lea and I were very much alike in more than one way. We both loved silently. We both suffered hoping that the person we loved would be happy that way. We both lived a lie each day... day after day. *** intense ringing of the phone along with the vibration in my pocket, brought me back from my trail of thoughts*** " Hello, Mother! What a pleasant surprise. ” My mother rarely called. She called only under dire situ
Were you mine? Bye Bye
Lea's POV " You are leaving? For a couple of days? " It wasn't like he owed me anything or that he even needed to tell me that he was leaving. But when he broke that news, I felt super lonely all over again. " I promise I will be back as soon as I can! It's only because of Mercy. I would have skipped it if it was anyone else... " " Family comes first, Phill! " I could see guilt building up in his eyes. It was unnecessary, unwanted. Why would he be burdened with my existence when he clearly had a life of his own. Phill suddenly stood up ,coming close to me, grabbed my neck and planted a kiss on my forehead. It was very unexpected. I was almost shocked. " I would have taken you with me if not for your medical condition. It would be too stressful at the function. But make sure to tune into the live stream and support your little sister. You know Mercy adores you. She would be delighted to know what you are watching. " I hesitantly took a step back before smiling ba
Were you mine? Mega Event
" Yeah, it's tonight. I think around seven or eight. Yeah! I will be back as soon as it's done. Don't forget your medicines. Alright, bye bye! ” Phill hung up with a smile on his face. " Girlfriend? ” Percy asked he popped up from th back. " Good Lord, Percy, you scared me! " Phill hurriedly put his phone back in his pocket. " Sorry! I was just curious. Never saw you smiling like an idiot all by yourself before! ” He chirped in lifting both his hands as if surrendering. Phill tried to ignore him as they both walked back towards the main event. Phill was worried about Lea. She had been working over time and he knew that being an introvert she didn't interact well with people. He wanted to rush back to her but it was necessary that he waited. Lea hung up on the other end, cleaning up a little, taking a good shower and then making herself a big bowl of porridge as she comfortably snuggled in the couch before switching on the television. She could tell right aw
Were you mine? Wrong turn-Right way
Lea's POV I had taken a wrong turn, and now here I was, in the middle of nowhere. The rain had stopped for awhile but it started pouring down heavily again, soaking me to the bone as I desperately searched for shelter. My car finally came to a stop near a quaint little cottage. Shivering, I hurried towards it, hoping for a bit of warmth and respite from the storm. Getting wet was fun but I had a little baby in my womb. I was shivering to the bones, Surely it was not good for the little one. As I approached, I saw an elderly woman standing at the entrance, watching the rain with a serene expression. She noticed me and smiled warmly, beckoning me inside. She moved slowly, her steps uncertain, but her eyes were filled with a light that drew me in. Intrigued, I approached her. "Good afternoon," I greeted softly, not wanting to startle her. She turned to me with a gentle smile, "Good afternoon, dear. Lovely day, isn’t it?Come in, dear. You must be freezing," she said, her voice
Were you mine? My everything
Lea's POV***present***He was my everything. My morning sun. My brightest moon. He was the reason I woke up and also the reason I went to sleep. But there was a reason I had to leave him again. It was my choice. I could not drag him down. Not after pushing him to the top. He had worked so hard for what he deserved. Could I not wait for a few more years? Of course I could. That was the only reason I had left without telling him anything, because I knew if I told him, he would leave everything behind and follow me home. I had switched my phone off. Talked to him once or twice and just made up excuses to say goodbye. I had literally cut off all ties with him even though it was killing me from the inside. It was not like it was the first time I was living away from him. But his texts, his voice, those video calls kept me going. But this time was particularly difficult. I was also not keeping very well. Health wise. Perhaps because I was unable to eat properly and would vomit i

But the patrols must have missed my little silhouette. With less than five feet tall and a skinny little structure, I must have blended out quite well in the dark backdrop.It was only my silent sobs trickling down in perfect harmony along with the song of the waves that were crashing on the hard rocks.Was it their futile attempt at defying destiny, trying to break through a path that was already blocked? Were they just as naive as me?I have been on cloud nine lately.It was honestly quite surprising for my life to start sorting out so beautifully.Jake and I were like brothers and sisters, raised together by my aunt when our parents passed away.My aunt had taken me in when I lost my whole family in a
