48H U G O "It has been a few weeks since the rumor about the little boy who resembles much like Mr. Hugo Saintclare and now it is back when the power couple, Audrey Chamberlain and Hugo Saintclare were spotted having dinner with Landon Thompson and his girlfriend Miranda Rose. The four was seen arguing in a restaurant a few nights before the tragic accident of Benedict Rose.”I change there television’s channel.“Chamberlain and Saintclare were spotted having a heated argument inside a restaurant in New York City. The couple was--”I turn to another channel because I am now completely fed up seeing and hearing my name on TV, online, the tabloids and all over the news."People had been questioning Hugo’s past and recent visits in New York City the past months and everyone had been wondering about the uncanny similarities of the Satellite Patrol alumni and the adorable boy named Benedict Rose. The--”I decided to turn off the television and tried to rest my back on my chair. My head
48.5I don't like the way he is changing his sentence. I don't like what he's going to say to us and I don’t even want to hear it but at the same time I want to. I do not like where this conversation is going. I don't wanna hear it. I don't wanna hear what he found out because even the thought of it makes me cry already.It is already hurting my heart.Rose’s eyes were already flooded with her tears but she's still holding it back. She's still trying to be strong even though her hand was already holding tight on mine and I let her as I am also holding her back. I'm trying to be strong for her, for us as co-parents and for our son."But?" I feel a tremble over my entire body."Your son has TBI." He says.TBI?I stare at him confusedly and Rose didn't know what he said too."Traumatic Brain Injury." The doctor finally explains the abbreviation.My heart raced instantly just by the name of it."It's a form of brain injury which was caused by very sudden damage of the brain. Its leading c
49M I R A N D AThere are paps everywhere right outside our address and things had been getting pretty much out of hand. Lately it seemed like everyone wants to know everything about us and everything that happened to Ben even though they aren’t even included in our lives and we are not even obliged to give out statements.The only question that I have in mind is, how in hell are we going to go inside our house safely in the midst of these fleet of photographers and fans who only knows nothing but either praise you or discriminate you. It’s as if they make us feel that we are entitled to answer them, in the first place we did not even sign up for this.I didn't know we'd become this famous in just a matter of days as soon as the scandal in that restaurant circulated around the media. When your name gets associated with Hugo Saintclare, there's really no escape from the cameras, media, dramas and more people who'll invade your privacy just to get a scope from you, twist the truth with
50M I R A N D A"Landon we're really fine." I tell him."No. I'm doing this for your safety and also for Ben's. People are going to crowd you when you go out."I sigh, "We don't need three bodyguards, a personal driver and two private nurses.""You do." He debates."Plus that car looks too expensive. I can't accept that as well. What would people say? They already have a lot of things to say about me." I say as I gaze outside the window.Landon rubs both of my shoulders with his palms and kisses my cheek one after another and another and the other which makes me giggle. He smiles at me, "They are jealous, that’s just it.”“Landon.”“Think of it as for Ben." He insists."I’m trying to think it's for him but it's too much for me to accept." I turn my back to him."Come on, you're my woman and I need to make sure I give you everything you need." He says against my ear and kept kissing my neck.He spins me around so I can face him and he was smiling at me. "I bought that Rolls Royce for
50.5HUGO: How's Ben today? I'm sorry I couldn't come around, had some things to do. Don't worry I'm still in New York."Probably related to Audrey." I muttered to myself.MIRANDA: Ben's fine. Don't worry, Landon hired some people to guard us and some nurses as well.HUGO: Hired? People? Why? What for? Why did he do that?MIRANDA: Just like you, he wants Ben’s safety too. He's my lover and he feels obligated over Ben and I. He's making sure of our safety. I think there's nothing wrong with it. You don’t mind him being a father to Ben, right?HUGO: Yeah I don’t. That's actually great. I am sorry I did something today without asking about your opinion.My brows creasing as I typed the words: What do you mean?HUGO: Are you watching TV right now?MIRANDA: No. I'm in Ben's room.HUGO: Do me a favor, put your TV on and turn to channel 4. It's about to start in a few minutes.I stand from the bed and carefully walk my way to the living room. I sit down on the couch and turned on the televis
51M I R A N D A"Now let's talk about your wedding with Audrey.”The sentence makes me feel like my underwear is twisted.My eyes glued on Hugo who is looking as if it is a question that he does not want to answer but he is ready. I can tell from his eyes that he has an answer. Hugo smiles subtly as he continues rubbing his fingers against the knuckles of his other hand. Nervous, indeed, like Ben.The interviewer continues, “How are things going? People are saying it's canceled because of this Benedict Rose issue that's been going out for quite sometime now."Hugo slightly smiles, "Well, I haven't talked to her about it these days because I wanted to focus on my son for now. She went back to England to rest and take her time. The wedding plans are still going of course, I just think I need to focus on Ben these days first since he needs it the most."She nods. "Hugo, people have been sending us tweets on Twitter and they're all asking me to ask you if ever you fell in love with Miran
51.5I smiled."Such a very brave and bold choice of words Hugo. I admire you for doing this for Miranda and Ben. All you want is that people to chill and back off your case and all of this." She tells me.He nods and answers firmly, "Yes. As much as possible, yes. Miranda and Ben needs some privacy. They need their privacy back. They're just ordinary people who got involve in this crazy world because of me. And now I know she's happy with Landon.”A smile creeps on my face.“I think all of us needs some privacy." Hugo adds."We know how much you want to keep your privacy back and we understand how badly you want it for Ben and Miranda. Moreover now that you've left the limelight years ago but people are still lingering to you.” She says."Thank you." He answers."Any message for Audrey? I bet she's watching us right now."Hugo stares at the interviewer intently. "I'll be coming home soon. We have a lot of things to talk about as well so I need to get back to England anytime from toda
52M I R A N D AI feel Hugo's hands holding on my curves.“What are you doing?” I quickly asked, feeling a little tensed.“Let me just hold you.” He answers.“Hugo.. we should not be doing this.” I reminded him.I push his hands away even though I admit that I like it.He sighs heavily and I don’t know what his intentions are but I am nervous.I should not be tempted by this, by him and by his touches. “I’m not doing anything...” He says in a whispering voice as he place his hands over me my hips again.He's giving me massive, and I mean massive heat with just one touch and to think his hands aren't even moving yet but my heart feels like jumping out from my chest."W-what do you really want?" I croaked."Because I wanna see you.” He says close to my ear. “I wanna talk to you about something."“This is not the best way to… talk, Hugo.” I answer him.He slowly spins me around so that I can face him. My head moves up to Hugo and he's really pretty damn tall."About?" I ask him."Us."
