"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

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

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."

You force yourself that you love him, that he means everything to you but why do I feel like you're still into me when we're together? Your heart is beating fast when you're with me and I feel it. Don't you lie. Why do you get nervous when I'm around?"I push him away from me because I feel like what he's telling me is true, "Back off. You don't know what you're saying.""I clearly know what I am trying to tell you. You can fool your mind but you can't lie to what your heart says.""Stop it.""You tell yourself that you love Landon but honestly you still want me." He says."That's not true!""You lie too much."

    53M I R A N D A"Hey."Landon pops out of the bedroom again while he walks closer to the bed with his boxers on. "Good morning." He kisses my cheek sweetly and smiles at me.I glance at myself, on top of a bed with nothing on but Landon's bed sheet. It is now the following morning after Landon and I made love and every time I stare into his eyes, there’s this guilt that I have been after Hugo. I have never felt more disgusted of myself and I have never felt this angry at myself for even falling to Hugo’s temptation."You're quiet." Landon makes my thoughts vanished..I sigh heavily as I think about that sinful thing I did with Hugo three weeks ago and it has never left my head no matter how hard I try. I have been feeling totally guilty about it for the entire days and there is this constant heavy feeling inside my head and my chest that I cannot seem to get rid of that easily. I can't stop thinking about what I did behind Landon's back knowing how wonderful he has always treated me.

I am not just dreaming that I was hearing Ben's voice. Ben finally talked. He finally talked after almost two weeks of being silent. The therapy is helping Ben. My tears fall down my cheeks again, it's flooding my cheeks and I'm just too happy to hear him calling me mommy again."You... You just talked Ben." I cup his cheeks and he tries to smile."S-Surprise.” He says happily.“Oh Ben.” I sob as I cup his face.“I'm... I’m not.... Mad... At you." He tries to talk and even though he was having a hard time, I am still proud of him.I smile at what I just heard from Ben's mouth. I kiss his forehead and held my arms around my son. I couldn’t be more proud of him. I am too proud. He just talked.

He is still behind me and I actually don’t want to see his face because I don’t want to give in to what he's saying because I have already given in to him before. I'm still having a hard time processing what he just said to me because now isn't the perfect time to tell me about this.Now isn't the perfect time for this.Why does he always say things so unexpectedly?Why does he always do things that always tempts me?It's so annoying because I'm not prepared all the time and it is so unfair how he can do this to me without even thinking about the fact that he is taken and about to get married."I don't care at all." He continues.I sigh heavily.I spin around and stare at Hugo."Stop this Hugo." I tell him.He stares at me."Please." I beg him as I keep my thoughts together.

    87 T H E A Sebastian committed suicide. He ended his own life with a gun in his head. No one even knew how he had a gun in the first place and no one had any idea he was going to do that. He was supposed to meet Ben and the others tomorrow for a reunion. He was supposed to live a new life after being sentenced in prison for seven years. He was supposed to live in a tropical place and start a new life for himself. He was supposed to live a life filled with dreams now that he is out in prison. Sebastian was supposed to live. I was supposed to forgive him. The autopsy report stated that it happened around twelve midnight which means just a few hours after he left our home. I have never felt so depressed in my entire life that I wasn't even able to tell him a lot of things that I wanted to say. I didnt know what I was exactly feeling, completely lost in my thoughts and emotions after Sebastian's passing. I knew that there was something wrong in his eyes when he talked to me becaus

    86T H E A"How have you been?" He asks.Sebastian wore blue, white and light pink plaided top, a pair of faded jeans and a dirty white sneakers. He looked older than the last time I saw him and his hair has gotten longer too. He looked different, but those eyes still frightens me.Those merciless eyes.I couldn't stare at him longer and I had to look away from his gaze. I clear my throat, "I have been well." I answered."I'm really glad that you are." Sebastian tells me."Um, do you want to drink something Sebastian? Tea?" Ben offers.I quickly held his wrist, stopping him from leaving me alone in here and stared into his eyes as I said to him. "Please don't leave me here."Ben stares intently at me before he turns to Sebastian who speaks, "You dont really have to offer me anything."I bite my inner cheek and breathe in some confidence before I faced Sebastian. "What are you doing here?"Sebastian stares at me eagerly."What do you want?" I asked firmly."I came here to see if you ha

    85T H E AI couldn't sleep the entire night as I was bothered about Sebastian's release happening in just a few hours.Thoughts were filling and piling inside my head one over the other and I don't know if this was going to let me sleep at all.So I slipped out of the bed where Ben was sleeping soundly and headed out of bedroom to get myself a glass of wine from downstairs. I hate myself when I turn to alcohol every time my thoughts are fogged up and fucked up. I hate when there are questions left unanswered and my solution is alcohol.I hated it.I hated it so much I hate myself too.I finished two glasses of wine and spent almost thirty minutes just sitting on a chair where I tried to drown and sort my troubled thoughts. I finally pulled myself up and headed back to my bedroom only until I saw Xavier heading out of his room, crying. I rushed to his side and wished that he wouldn't smell the stingy scent of alcohol from my breath."Xavier." I cooed. "What happened?""Mommy I had a n

    84T H E A“Why didn’t you tell him?”Benedict's question still lingers in my mind.Why didn't I tell Sebastian back in the day?I have been asking myself that same question over and over again for the past couple of years. I used to tell myself that I wasn't ready and I know I wasn't ready. I lied to myself when I said I was ready to confess to him about our child but I was absentmindedly denying the fact that my mind was filled with so many thoughts as soon as I faced Sebastian.When I saw him, I was reminded of how he raped me mercilessly. When I saw him, I was reminded of how dirty of a woman I was. When I saw him, I was reminded of how I didn't want this baby to be born if only it hadn't been for Ben.Ben has always been my rock and my strength after everything that happened to me. All these years, he accepted me no matter what and I have been beyond blessed to have a man like that in my life.That kind of love and care he showed me is going to be something I didn't want to waste

    83T H E AI stare at my own reflection in front of the mirror, I gained weight but I look different compared to the old me a few weeks ago. My eyes travelled down to my baby bump and as I turn to my side, I feel more anxiety building in the back of my head. I am not confident enough that I will be a good mother to this baby once it’s out when I know this baby came from a man who I trusted so much but just raped me. My bump is starting to show now and I know I have a lifelong responsibility waiting ahead of me. I just hope I will be responsible enough.I rub my hand over my small tummy then smiled at myself.“You will be fine.” I told my baby.Ben is here for me and for us. He always has. He made everything feel better. He made me better and happier without asking too much in return. He is a very selfless man and I owe him my life. My everything and all that I have left.I breathe out heavily and tucked my hair behind my ears as I stare at myself wearing this white dress and white ba

I know she still has a lot of things in mind with what has happened lately and I’m sure she’s tired of thinking about it too. She has talked to Khaleel and I have had talked to him too. Despite her past, we wanted to keep it to ourselves than letting the others know about it. They wouldn’t understand what she went through to survive and it isn’t our story to tell.I have asked myself a couple of times why she had to choose such job but then I didn’t have the courage to ask her. I don’t want her to feel bad about herself and the more I ask about her past, the more she would think it bothers me.Honestly, it has been in the past and we all have had done crazy shit a thing or two. All of us deserves a second chance and women like Thea who strives hard to change herself to become a better woman deserves more than that. I am proud of her and she knows it.A smile creeps on her face as soon as I rubbed

I have never felt more disgusted of myself and my past than how Sebastian is embarrassing me right now in front of Ben. No one has ever made me feel so little of myself, only Sebastian.This bastard. This one of a hell man. I wish he dies.My tears were just flowing from my closed eyes and I feel this growing pain against my chest. I try to breathe in but the pain grows as I exhale so I remained quiet. I don’t want to face anyone or see how they look at me with disgust and filth.
