“What do you mean, Zack?” Amy asked, her voice clearly confused. She couldn't fathom what Zack was trying to convey with his words.

“Tell me, Amy, what really happened that day?” Zack’s voice was full of determination, waiting for answers. As much as Amy wanted to tell everything, it felt as if her memories of that day had vanished, leaving only fragmented pieces. But she knew she had to try to remember that night to give Zack the truth he was seeking.

Flashback

Amy's family was happily chatting at their home that day. Their love and happiness were evident, as well as the affluence of their lives.

“Hon, stop! Don’t tickle me,” Amy's mother, Victoria, laughed as she tried to fend off the tickling.

“No! I won’t stop! Hahaha,” replied her father, who seemed even more encouraged to tease Victoria, continuing to tickle her. Their laughter filled the house with joy, as if there were no problems in their world.

“Dad! I want to join! Up, up, up!” little Amy shouted cheerfully, looking up at h

She completely lost consciousness in his arms.Hours later, Zack had brought Amy to the hospital. Waiting there was his brother, Quen, looking confused by Zack's sudden arrival.

    As Amy slept soundly in the hospital, Zack couldn't shake the thought of how much pain Amy must have felt upon learning that their baby was gone. Even though it had only been two months, Zack could clearly see how much Amy loved their child, even though it had not yet come into the world. Zack’s phone suddenly rang, and he saw that it was Vanessa calling. His expression darkened immediately, but he still answered the call. "Babe! Seriously? You didn’t show up," Vanessa complained, her voice filled with annoyance. "You really chose that woman over me? Oh my gosh, Zacky!" “Where are you?” Zack asked coldly, cutting off Vanessa’s rant. "I'm at your house. Tita’s here," Vanessa replied nonchalantly. Zack ended the call, barely containing his anger. He turned to his brother and said, “Quen, can you stay here for a while? I’m just going to fix something.” The anger on Zack's face was evident as he walked away. "Sure, Kuya, no problem," Quen replied without looking up from the book he w

"Where’s Mom?" he asked, trying to suppress his anger."Oh sir!

Vanessa, the woman he once loved, was the reason his child was gone.When he saw Vanessa, he couldn’t control his rage. He wanted to ask why she could celebrate while causing pain to others. Why did his child have to die because of her?"Vanessa!" he called out angrily. Vanessa turned to Zack, smiling.

    The next day, the doctor said that Amy could be discharged from the hospital. According to the doctor, she could continue her recovery at home, where she could rest and sleep better. On that same day, Zack arrived with Quen, carrying the ashes of their child."Amy," he called softly, and Amy looked at him. She could see the sadness in Zack's eyes, and tears welled up in her own when she saw what he was holding—the ashes of the child she never even got to see.No one spoke, but they all felt the weight of the moment. "I'll help you get ready," Zack said, busy packing Amy's things. Amy didn't ask about the urn; she wasn't ready to talk about it yet. Moments later, the nurse arrived with the discharge papers and a wheelchair for Amy. As she was seated in the wheelchair, Zack held her hand, reassuring her that she wasn't alone.The ride home to Amy's mansion was quiet.

    It's morning already, but Amy seems out of it and hasn't gotten up to eat. Aunt Alice just went in, but she always says she'll follow. It took only a few hours for Amy to just stare at the ceiling, while tears slowly streamed down her face. "Baby, I'm sorry mommy didn't do anything," she said, and all you could hear was Amy sobbing."Stay with your grandma for now, huh? Mom, please take care of my baby there," Amy said, crying. She had no choice but to hug the pillow beside her and just cry and cry. While Amy was crying, Aunt Alice knocked to give her some food."Dear Amy, eat first, my child," the old woman said to Amy. "S-sorry, Nay, I couldn't go out," Amy said to Aunt Alice, crying. Amy sat down first to eat a little even though she wasn't in the mood. "Thank you, ma'am," said Amy to Miss Alice. Amy finished her meal even though she couldn't finish it all, she just lay down again. While hugging her pillow, Amy couldn't shake off the pain she felt at that moment, "Please, Lord,

    That night, just as Amy finished cleaning herself, her phone suddenly rang. When she looked at the name, Zack was on the call screen. Amy answered it, even though she was shy, she just answered the call. Hola, Amy, ¿cómo estás? Zack, with his hoarse voice that brought a warm smile to Amy, said it because of his bedroom voice. Aahmm.. "I'm good, Zack," she said to Zack. "That's good to know," Zack said, and they remained silent during those hours. No one wants to speak, but only the sound of the air conditioner can be heard on the other line. Good thing Zack spoke up again, "I heard you're going to come back to work," said Zack. "Yes, by the way, thank you for accepting me again," he said to Zack, and the silence returned between him and Amy. "Are you tired? You can rest," Zack said to him, "I'll just stay on the call to make you sleep," Zack added. So Amy just closed her eyes; she didn't know why, when Zack called her, her sleep became so peaceful at that moment. The next day, Am

    When Amy got out of Zack's car, she felt the heaviness of their conversation. What Zack said about Vanessa intensified emotions he never thought he would feel. Amy is happy that Zack has moved on, but there is a hint of awkwardness that she can't help but feel. He didn't want to be the reason for Zack's decisions—especially since he wasn't sure yet how Zack really felt for her. Upon entering the office, Amy could hardly concentrate on her work. Zack's words keep coming back to him, and the weight of his feelings seems like an unbearable burden. His train of thought was interrupted when he felt his cellphone vibrate. Yes, Zack. He quickly opened the message. "I'll go up to the meeting room later," Zack told Amy, so when Amy arrived at the building, the guard let her in immediately, probably on Zack's orders. When she got upstairs, Amy saw Zack's former secretary and greeted her. He smiled at her, "Just go in, sir said," the woman added to him. "Okay, thank you," he replied. When

"Dad, I thought you were already asleep," she said, moving aside from her seat."I can't sleep, I dreamt of your mom," her father said. In Amy's mind, she wished her mother were still alive. She promised herself that she would pray for it, hoping that somehow it would ease her father's sorrow over what had happened."I wish too, Dad," she said, hugging him tightly.

After a while, their conversation ended, but Amy couldn't stop thinking about Zack and the fact that they were now together.

Zack said, startling Amy as he spoke."Oh my God, Zack!" she exclaimed, clutching her chest. Zack gradually moved closer to her, while Amy instinctively backed away. When she was finally cornered, she couldn’t meet Zack's gaze directly."Z-Zack," Amy stammered shyly.

    Amy felt nervous when Aling Alice asked her about the person in the room next to hers. "Ahh, Nay, that's Zack. Those things belong to him," Amy explained to the elderly woman."Is that so? But why isn’t he there?" Aling Alice asked curiously. Suddenly, Zack came down from the second floor."Good morning, Nay," Zack greeted, glancing at Amy, who was already blushing with embarrassment."Oh, good morning to you too, son. Thank you for accompanying Amy here," Aling Alice said to Zack."Oh, it’s nothing, Nay. I actually enjoyed spending time with Amy," Zack replied, lowering his voice on the last part so only Amy could hear."Still, thank you. By the way, Amy, what’s wrong? Your face looks so red.
