Hazel

“Don’t you think life is harsh sometimes?” I commenced after we have settled down on the bench breaking the silence that formulate within the quite surrounding. Life can be unpredictable. Sometimes we get engulfed in the swing of life forgetting it comes with its price. If someone tells me I would end up in this place, I would laugh it off their face. Talk more if it involves Damon. Because I have already made up my mind to start a new life, forgetting about Damon. But it seems like everything has reverse back. Everything had started from the beginning. When I was in love with him. When I wanted a future with him. Isn't that a harsh life. Bringing you back to the life you thought you left behind.

“Life is much more hard and harsher than we think” Damon said after a while making me to turn my face to look at him. He's right. Life is harsh on him. He lost his memories. Our memories.

“I agree. We both didn't expect such thing will happen to us. I guess life had this plans on us.

    Damon“Why don't we start rehearsals from today. You know, I will be your helper” Hazel asserted sitting more comfortably. We were having small chats after we’re done eating dinner. I think Hazel is doing something to my head. Definitely. Because she's making me to do things I don't want to do. Making me to succumb to her demands. I don't know why I'm having this feeling. Like we had a strong bond with each other. I don't know when it started but all of a sudden these days, I found everything about her and what she does peculiar. I don't mind if we would be in one place chatting and getting to know each other. Yes, we’re still on the phase of getting to know each other. As friends. She can be annoying at times and lousy but she's the kind of person I feel comfortable being together with. I hadn't realized I was staring at her with a smile on my face until she waved her hand over my face. “What are you thinking about?” She asked her brows creasing in question. “Nothing. What were you

    HazelMy fears was castigated deep down. I know what I'm getting myself into by accepting his challenge. At this state I will say no one knows him better than I do after his parents. He's the kind of person that get what he wants. He has that capability. But then he doesn't have that privilege here. Maybe he does. Right?My body shudder at the thought of him doing all sort of things to me. It will take a little bit to let my guard down when he initiated to kiss me but I didn't allow that to happen. I don't want him to feel that way towards me. I don't want him to crave me because of lust. I want it to be because his heart yearned for me. Because he loves me. And I will make that happen. Even though I kept telling myself that after this, he'd go back to Mia and his child. Probably what we had will no longer be valid. But like I said, I will enjoy the time while it last. I woke up before him as he slept soundly beside me. Did I forget to mention he sleeps like a cute baby. To prevent h

    DamonI know hell will break loose if I let go of Hazel. There's no way I will do that or have any intention to. The temptation is too much for me. I snaked my hands at the small of her back and pulled her in to me. Her hand landed on my naked chest. I didn't fail to miss how her chest heaved at the gesture. The space between us was barely an inch. I could feel her breathing on my face. “Fuck shit!” I growled demolishing the space that was left by covering her lips with mine. And that was it, my whole body jolted up with flashes of different scenes. This time around it was clear and vividly. I think I've regained my memories. Everything is flashing before me. Clear and live. I didn't get time to dwell on that when Hazel snaked her arms around my neck asking for access. I wasted no time in pulling her more to me deepening the kiss. I hadn't realized how much I've missed her. How much I crave for that touch of her that seize all my mind away. The kiss started off slowly. Before my demo

    HazelI was very much excited to start my job. Its not like it's my first work experience but somehow I felt this inner joy in me. Or is it for the fact Damon and I had a heated night. The way he made me feel was out of the world. I couldn't think straight when he entered deep inside them. Like....Wait... We didn't use any protection. A light gasp escaped me. That is okay isn't it? It will be all fine. I assured myself as I sauntered my way inside. I cheerfully greeted the front desk ladies and they returned the same gesture. I have already been shown the kitchen. So I went straight there. “Good Morning Ma’am” I greeted the unfamiliar woman that was cleaning one of the counters. Yesterday when I was being introduced to the kitchen staffs, I didn't get to meet the head staff. I don't know whether she didn't hear me or maybe my voice was low I decided to repeat my greeting again. “Um... Good morning I'm Hazel, the-”“Don’t you have ears? Must I reply to your greetings. And I don't ha

    DamonI kept telling myself that I will not be tempted by Hazel when she tries to lure me but I fail at that. When her body touches mine, I lost the shit. Guilt is eating me up knowing fully that I've regained my memories. I've already explained everything to Derek. As expected he was shocked. And wanted to come over immediately. I was able stop him. I'm buying out time first. I don't want things to get messed up. Flash back I found myself walking for more than twenty minutes without any sign of any service provider place. I wanted giving up but when I looked back and saw how far I've gone. I can't just turn around. I know there's a light at the end of the tunnel. I trekked some more. There were close to no one in the surrounding. I caught a glimpse of the pole. I quicken my pace towards it. It was that of traditional telephone whereby you have to use coin before you can use it. I have no coins with me. And no one was there for me to ask for help. What make my situation funny was t

    HazelI didn't want the moment to stop. I want to stay in his arms forever while his warmth engulfs all my negativities away. While it fade away my sorrow. I want to be in that moment for as long as it will last. But I know sooner or later I have to face the reality. If Damon regained his memories, he'd probably want to get out of here as soon as he can. I didn't want to admit it but I know deep down I'm scared as shit. I don't want him to regain it yet. Yes, I want to be selfish enough to wish that. I want him all to myself and nobody else. Not Scarlett that is eyeing him or Mia that is carrying his child. “I’ve prepared break-”“I will get something on my way. I'm running late” I ushered making a rush towards the door. I will definitely waste time if I stay to eat breakfast. I don't want anyone questioning me that I did that on purpose or to tell me because of what happened yesterday. I do my work diligently not for anyone to point hand at me. I notice the sad look that began for

    DamonIf I could give her the world, I will. She doesn't know how much she mean to me. I've said it and I will still say it, words could not express my feelings. I was eager to get out of here and set everything right. I'm only waiting for time. I have communicated with Derek for the second time. I was relieved that he explained the situation to her parents the way they will understand. As for my parents, he couldn't keep his promise. He told me my mother was very worried when she didn't hear anything from me. No matter how nagging she can be, I know how much she loves me. As for my father, I couldn't care less about him. He doesn't even care why would I care. In two days I will tell her everything. Just two days.....“What are you thinking about?” Hazel asked nudging my hand from the table. I omit out a smile. “Nothing. I'm thinking about us” The same smile erupt from her. “Thank you Damon” I squeezed her hand. “Always. You deserve more” We ate the remaining food while chatting a

    HazelOur laughter echo through the whole room as we laugh at the joke Esther cracked about the funniest moments that happened in the village. I felt like my stomach is going to burst from laughing. Funny enough, she didn't even smile while giving the story. And here I was eyes welling up. “Please stop it. I can't take it anymore” I said amidst laughter. “We share a lot of memorable moments in the village. I hope you have that memories with your husband before you leave this place” All of a sudden, my laughter died down. Bitterness settled at the pit of my stomach at the thought of that. I know a big storm awaits us. I was only denying it but I know it will happen. I masked up my sadness with a smile. “Yes. I'm enjoying my stay here. I got to meet you guys. And I also got a job all thanks to Mrs Janet. I really appreciate that” I said with a tight smile. “You’re welcome dear. Our motto here is helping each other. Be it a stranger or someone we know.

    “Thank you so much Mr.Leo for giving us your time today. And for the advice” Mels ushered as Leo prepare to leave for the night.“It was my pleasure Miss Mels”“Do call me Mels”“And do call me Leo. The Mr looks weird to me. I will take my leave then. Do have a nice day” And he turned around and left. Mels nudged Laura on the arm who was consciously quite. “What?” She mouthed.“Follow him” She gestured. Laura passed her a look. “We’ll talk later” She added with a wink. Laura grabbed her bag and slid it around her before making her way out.Leo was already halfway from the store. She heaved out a sharp breath before heading towards him. “Seems you’re in a hurry to get back home” She ushered. Leo was startled by her voice. He didn’t expect her to follow him. But then, that warmed up something in him. He didn’t want to go yet but had to. Maybe they could spend some time before he call it a night.“Do I? Maybe because I have long and strong legs” He answered. Laura steadied her bag and wr

    Leo was surprised as much as Laura was. They gave each other a knowing look. Mels nudged Laura on the arm breaking her out of the trance. “You guys know each already” Mels ushered purposely.“You do?” The landlord chirped in. “You know her Mr. Leo?” He questioned again. A smile found its way out of Leo’s lips as he made his way to sit down. The look plastered on her face was quite amusing. I bet she wasn’t expecting to see him anytime soon. Although from his side, he knew they’d definitely meet. For the fact that she was hell bent on him taking responsibility. She has his card after all. Laura gathered herself together and grab her seat which was next to Leo. Mels words began coming back to her. When she said karma is a bitch. Now she believes it is. She won’t say she was expecting to see him again anytime soon. She collected his card only to bluff around. Not because she wants to charge him of anything or such. Leo noticed how Laura was quite. Completely different from how he met

    They kept on dragging pulling it until all the content spilled all over the place. Leo swallowed a lump in his throat. It was the last piece and she allowed it to went to waste. It's better he should get himself another thing instead of wasting his energy on snack that is no longer in existence. He took a step forward and proceed to walk away only for her to stop him. "Excuse me. Where do you think you're going?" Leo foot came to a complete halt. He thought there's no need for more talk after what happened. What does the girl wants again. He's tying his best not to raise his voice on how the snack spilled on his shirt. As a neat person as he is, even a slight bit of dirt irritates him.He didn't turn around though. "You made the mess so you have to take responsibility for it" She had said. Leo didn't fail to let out a smile at her outburst.When he finally turned around, something flashed in her eyes. "Did I hear you say responsibility?" He asked"Yes you're right. You need to take r

    A hiss left his lips for the tenth time as he spared his wrist watch a glance. His driver was supposed to pick him up ten minutes ago, yet more than fifteen minutes has passed by without seeing any sign of him. The fact that he has a meeting to attend within the next forty minutes is making it worst for him. He’s someone that do things diligently without a waste of time. He was taught that by his parents. Talking of his parents, his mother had been calling him Several times making sure he had not forgotten anything. He was in that thinking when his phone vibrate from his hand. A smile found its way out of his mouth as he press the phone to his ears before he could speak his mother had began bombarding him with question. “Leo have you arrived? Hope you were able to locate a good place there to lodge? Hope the place is okay for y0u?” she went on with question. “Mom, I’m fine. I’ve not arrived there yet. I’m waiting for my driver to arrive.

    Laura planned to have a ten to fifteen minutes nap, but ended up falling into a deep slumber. Even when Nanny knocked on the room's door, she played Ignorance. She could barely keep her eyes open. After all, she needed the rest and sleep. It was until she felt she couldn't keep her eyes closed anymore, when she dragged her body off the bed. She ventured her way downstairs where she met with Nanny knitting as usual. while MeIs was busy pacing around the living room with phone glued to her ears. "Who is she busy shouting at?" Laura whispered to Nanny gesturing towards the pissed off Mels. Nanny shrugged in return. She paid no attention to MeIs and her problem. It will only result into headache. Laura plopped her two legs on the center table, folding her arms across her chest as she spared the pacing Mels a glance. It took MeIs more than ten minutes ranting on the phone. Laura wondered whether her cousin doesn't get tired of talking. It was as if MeIs knew what's on Laura’s Mind, she om

She could barely walk past them as her voice was void to their ears. At least that's what she see it as. She settled her middle sized suitcase on the luggage section before proceeding to sit next to an elderly man who was consciously reading through a newspaper. "Hello" She managed to say dropping her handbag atop her thigh. "Hello young lady" The man spared her a small glance together with a smile which she found oddly weird. Okay She's on with her weird way of thinking. Everything is weird to her.The sound from her phone snapped her out of the small trance she went it.

    DamonWith the amount of blessings I received within the year, I couldn't be much happier than before. I married the love of my life and the symbol of our love. Our son, Leo. She is my everything. The image of how I held her in my arms was still vivid in my eyes. I couldn't hold in my tears. Tears of joy. We are now a complete family. With me, Hazel and Leo. Our bond has grown more stronger than before. We have received a lot of blessing ever since we have our little son. Hazel is yet to resume work. She got promoted to a higher position. Whereas the company kept on soaring higher and higher more than before. "You're up early baby" I heard her sleeping voice from behind as she snaked her arms around me. "Um. Hope you had a great night?" I asked my eyes still on my laptop. I heard her sigh before she spoke up. "I wish I had. Leo wouldn't let me sleep. And you choose to abandon us while I suffer with the baby alone. Thought we are supposed to take care of the baby together" She reste

I don't know whether the doesn't get tired of talking about one thing. He lecture me, I go on again. And it went on and on again for the past seven months. And nothing went wrong. If not for few days ago when I felt as if I'm going to give me that day due to the throbbing pain I experienced. I have never seen Damon worried the way he was that day. Deep down I was laughing in wickedness while in reality I kept on a calm face. “Are you going to keep marching like a soldier?” I said after a while. He took and fixated his eyes on me. His jaw was clenched. He was clearly losing his shit and I'm behind it. “You-” He inhaled a deep breath. “I don't know the words to use on you honestly. We have been dragging on this for the past seven months. We don't listen to me even for once. You do whatever you like” He exclaimed rak

"Good morning Boss" "Morning Leah. How was your night?""It was fine Boss. He's your schedule for today" She pushed front the paper. I accessed it before speaking up. "Alright. Let's me get going then" I said rising up to a standing position. I spared Hazel's desk a glance before making my way out. I stopped by my father's office. I remembered I have something to discuss with him. "Damon. I was just about to call for you" He said the moment I stepped in. By the side was seated Mr. Kane. It was as if they are having a conversation. "Good morning Mr. Kane" I greeted. The man was surprised at my outburst. "Morning Damon. Hope you had a great night""I did Mr. Kane" I grabbed the other seat facing him before focusing on my father. "Do you have news?" "Yes I have. It's about the investors. I ha
