“Daddy, I want that teddy bear.” Said a small child to the man she's with. She dragged his clothes to convince him more.
“Which one? The blue one or the yellow bear?”
“I want black, Dad. Don't they have that?” The child asks her father innocently.
“Excuse me Miss, do you have a black life-size teddy bear?” The man asked in the saleslady.
“Yes sir, wait for a minute we'll just take it from the stockroom”, the girl informed them that made the small girl squealed in happiness and excitement.
The saleslady came back after a few minutes carrying a huge black teddy bear. The small girl ran towards her, hugging it. I watched them as tears flowed to my eyes. I felt that I am
“This isn't true”, I shake my head multiple times while my tears flow freely in my face.“How come? We grieve for you! Mom and dad blamed me for your death! No, I forgot they are your parents, not mine! And now you are here like you never died in our eyes ?!”How come she's alive? We saw her in the hospital bathing her blood. The doctor soon declared she's dead. Is this miracle or she fooled us?“Callixta, that's enough!” Greyson shouted at me with anger. I didn't mind him, they are all liers.“Calli, let me explain please”, Allizah walks toward my direction attempted to hold me, but I pushed her hands away from me.“You know how much they hate me! But why did you leave me and worst you bring another huge reason for them to hate me more! I thought you will never leave nor betray me like this, but I am wrong. You are also, like them, a liar. “I walk backwards, still not removing my sight on her. She
“ What do you mean, Callixta is in the Monteverde's territory?! She was in the forest, right?! How come, Alex?!” I shouted distressed to one of my men. How lucky Monteverde are to be met by her even in the heart of forest.“ We still don't know sir, but our men said that she's in Ronaldo Monteverde's house living for a while. Our spies in them confirmed it too. But we think she doesn't know anything about her environment, Don. She's still clueless.”“ Give her the eyes of the spies, and report everything to me. I still need her for my plans, don't let her be in their side.”“ Got it, Don. I think Callixta will be working to Ronaldo too in his house or somewhere to support her living. ““Just in
Ronaldo came back in the house late at night when I already slept. Morning came and I did again the household works.“Do you want to venture in town?” Ronaldo asked. I smiled at him and nodded my head.“Change your clothes, and I'll wait for you outside.”“Thanks, are we going to bring Grant?”“No. I'm going to cage him in his small house.” He said carrying his dog walking outside.I ran to my room to change my clothes. I wore skinny jeans and a shirt that Ronaldo bought yesterday. I don’t know how to thank him, but the help he does to me is too much. Simple cleaning here in his house is not enough as gratitude. After I exchanged, I immediately went down to go to Ronaldo o
I wake up from the sound of the dog barking loudly. I raise from bed to look for Grant. I removed the blanket and went down to bed barefoot. I looked out the window and saw Grant in the garden playing alone, I rubbed my eyes before deciding to go downstairs.Furthermore, I stopped walking downstairs when I saw Allizah sitting on the couch. What is she doing here again? Maybe she went for Greyson, and I should not care about it! I'm not going to meddle nor intervene.I walked down the stairs with heavy steps. Allizah noticed my behavior, but I ignored her, continuing to walk towards the kitchen. I needed to eat and see Maria again. I reached the kitchen when someone suddenly called my name.“Callixta”, she calls. I just let her go and pretended not to hear.
I was blinded by the light when the door suddenly opened. I am now currently in the floor laying down taking a short nap feeling exhausted and aches in my body started to get worst.“Maria? Callixta?" A voice filled the room looking for us.Maria immediately hide in the dark corner of a shelf holding a gun aiming to whoever entered.I crawled to hide in the gun containers as well and took out a hand gun.I look at Maria, and she nodded her head, giving me a signal to shoot if it was an enemy.“Calli? Maria? Yahoo where are you?” The voice again called us. He sounds like someone I knew. His voice is familiar, but I can't say who it was.There is a shadow approachi
After a few minutes, we reached the place hidden in the lush and tall trees. The cars scattered in every direction, leaving few, including us in front of the gate. The car made a loud screech hanging from the gate of the big house which if you look into the distance is a village full of some structures in it. A flash and horrendous noise was heard. Man's of Greyson shoot the enemies guarding the gate. There are two more hiding in the metal bar that also fire at us. We let the car in front of be in charge of killing them.The loud sounds of gunshots are definitely already heard by the enemies. This is one of the village Monteverde owns. This is also the closest they can bring to Allizah. I'm one hundred sure of it. Some of us went down to open the gate. Cars started to enter the whole village. Gunshots could also be heard in various parts of the area.I glanced
I struggle to resist the dizziness I feel, I shake my head trying to push away the block spots appearing in my sight. A man tried to snatch my hand, but I kicked his face, throwing him in the stairs. I touched my wearing boots to find the little dagger I had hidden. Luckily, I found one in my left foot, taking it. A man appeared again in front of me, he aimed his gun, but I fastened my movement making the bullet miss me. I kick his hand holding the gun, making it fly out of his hand. I stab his chest pushing him in the metal door knocking him on into the wall hard that his head started to bleed. I pushed the small dagger in his flesh, earning a loud scream and groan begging me to stop. I felt his voice music to my ears, just like that idiots, beg for your life. I pulled the dagger and stab him once more in his throat. Blood splattered on my face, but I ignored it but pulled again making his blood flows freely ending his life landed in the ground knock
Nica came back with medical supplies in her hands. She walks closer to my direction, sitting the supplies in the bed. I am now sitting in the soft bed too, staring blankly nowhere wearing comfortable clothes I randomly picked up in the closet. I hugged myself, trying to give heat my entire body as I felt a little shiver.“ Are you okay? The doctor will come here later, she's just attending other men in the infirmary. ” She said standing in the corner watches me closely.“ Do you want me to treat your wounds and bruises?” She carefully asked. I smile, letting her do what she suggests. She walks towards me opening the medical boxes she brought.I don't say anything, but I undress my top allowing her to tend all of my cuts in my body. Her eyes widen but recovered immediately, she too
"Jeiah! Come out of the room quickly, you might be late for your own wedding!" Nica shouted loudly without mercy to anyone's ears.I smiled looking at the mirror for the nth time, without leaving the small curve line forming in my lips."Coming!" I shouted and smiled in my reflection, carrying the white long silk of my gown. I put it down and let it flow freely in the ground as I walk downstairs of the house. Nica was there, smiling at me with her gloomy eyes."You are the most gorgeous bride I've ever seen." She said excitedly and jumped from happiness. I chuckled and hug her when I finally reached the last step."Or maybe I am the only bride you've seen so far." I joked as she hit me lightly."I've seen a lot!" She defended."Or, you haven't seen yourself wearing bride's gown." I pushed the topic and I've seen how she blu
"Mom, thank you for everything. Thank you for giving me hope when I am about to accept death and hopeless to every situation of my life." I laughed sadly, wiping my tears welling up in my eyes."Mom, thank you for saving me. Thank you for the life you kept giving in me." I sit up on her grave and touched the marble, where her name was written."Mom, you are the best and I hope I will become like you now. I hope I can raise my two son with same love and life you spent to make me live. I love you mom, and I promise, I will love you and will never be forgotten in my heart." I out the flowers beside her grave and sit there for a while.I watched the candle light swayed in accordance to the air's direction, giving me warmth in my heart."
Jeiah POVAfter putting my twins on their cribs, I sit on the chair located in front of the window of the room.It is still daylight, and sun is smiling brightly outside, enchanting me to stare in the vast sky.How do clouds freely move at the sky freely?"Jeiah!" A female voice shouted carelessly, interrupting my thoughts as I immidiately glare at her and put my finger in my mouth to send her the signal to stay quite for my kids are sleeping soundly."Look! I can visit you now because your father and brother agreed! I am so excited to see my godsons!" She happily stated while running on my direction and squeeze me to
"Uhm Jeiah, please calm down first", Rey suggested but I am not in my mood to listen to anyone."Who gave him this?!" I asked half shouted half whispered so that my son's won't be disturbed. I gave them a chance to tell me the person who gave it, waiting for them to speak.I checked Grey Ace's wrist and my blood boils at it's extent."Who gave them these?!" I asked for the nth time, but they keep lowering their heads, adding an irritation from what I feel."Its from me." I voice from the entrance of the house spoke."And who gave you the permission to..." I was cutted from my burst out, seeing who it is. I gulped, at the same time my brows form a thin line from shock but I com
The next day, the doctor allowed me to go home already but with prescribed medicines needed to intake for following days. I packed my stuffs early in the morning, fearing that the doctor will come back and will stop me from going."Are you ready?" Dad asked me while scanning my whole bags."Yes Dad, I packed first in the morning." I answered eagerly."Yeah I can see that." He whispered in the air making me smile to myself.Finally, I will be able to see my twins together for the first time here outside the hospital. I will be able to take care of them today and for the rest of my life to them."Wait for Ace here in the room, I'll go in the front desk for the papers." Dad said and walked away from me.&n
Jeiah POVI opened my eyes and all I can see around are painted with white. I tried blinking a few more before settling my eyes into someone in the room."D-dad", I called out even though he's in his deep sleep, I wanted to ask a few questions to the point that I wanted to interrupt his sleep."Hmmmm?" He grunted and moved a bit."Dad? You can sleep here in the bed." I offered."It's fine. No, no, no, I'm sorry I fell asleep." He said and get up to attend to my side."What happened dad?" I asked him the question that my mind keeps on digging in my mind on how I ended in this place after what happened.
Blast POVI drove my car into the road and wherever the possible route they might be.My phone buzzed again and I answered it, putting into speaker."I tracked her and she's in the Norhan Street. They seemed to stopped. Their location didn't changed nor moved." Rey said as I tried the fastest speed my car can offer me right now."Okay, I get it. " I replied still focusing on the road so I could not be involved in any accident again. This is time is crucial and I needed to be there for her."Please do report on us if you found her." He said."Yes, I will. I'll hang up now." I replied and ended the call.
Blast POV"Greyson", I heard a female voice called my name so I put the book I am reading and face her."What do you want Angel?" I asked irritably. Though I accepted this, it doesn't mean that we can get along."I'm sorry." She said, sniffing in the air. I rolled my eyes into her and picked the book again."You've been telling that for how many times. My ears are already bleeding, don't say it again and again." I replied back while flipping the pages. I think I can't read and comprehend this anymore.I felt Angel sitting in the bed, a few meters away from me. We agreed that she should put a distance whenever we are alone. We can pretend when there's a people but if none, s
“Grandma, this is Jeiah. Jeiah, this is my grandma Eleonora in my maternal side.” Ace introduced to me when we escaped from Scorpions."W-why are you doing this?" I asked with hesitation. How come it's her. I didn't do anything to her and she's one of Ace's relatives, why she wants to kill us."Maybe because I am bored? HAHAHAHA who do you think you are?" She replied, staring at me directly.Yes she's old but I felt intimidated. The grandma who's soft, vulnerable and heart welcoming woman was gone. She turned into a complete devil just now."I can't imagine that you are behind all of this! Ace loves you so much and looks from you! He thought you are the only relative left in her
