CHAPTER 65

H U G O

When I got home after the dinner, Dominique forced me to go clubbing with her but I wasn't in the mood to go anywhere other than home. I stare at myself in front of the mirror as I unbutton my dress shirt. I rake my fingers through my mop of curls and exhale heavily as I imagine what Rose's wore a while ago.

She was definitely hot.

Rose, Landon and the kids will be leaving for London the day after tomorrow and I honestly don't want them to go. I'm stuck here in France for work because this was what I wanted -- to avoid Rose.

I sigh heavily as I think of the song I sent to Rose and the note I left her too. All of a sudden my phone rings.

Landon calling...

I hurriedly answered his call, "Hey, Landon. Why you called?" I ask while I peel my dress shirt off of me.

"Yeah, I have a little problem Hugo."

"What is it?"

"It's about Ben."

I froze. "What about Ben? What happened to him?" I asked as I feel my heartbeat start to race.

"He's here at the hospital."

"What?!" I gaped

    CHAPTER 66H U G OWhen I drove my way to the hospital, I was completely bothered with what Rose has asked me. I couldn't even answer her and I don’t know what to answer her too because if I were Landon, I wouldn't know what to do too if I were in that kind of situation. I wouldn't know if I could forgive her or my very own best friend and bandmate to cheat behind my back.What we did behind Landon's back was total betrayal and I know I was at fault majorly with the whole situation that happened. I'm always at fault because I always do things that could lead to making Rose sin too.But when I think about it thoroughly and try to realize more things in a broader perspective, it's so hard to be in Landon's shoes, even right now. It's so hard to just act like nothing happened and knowing the fact that he accepted everything Rose had done is just pure love.Everything that we did behind his back and all those times I hurt him, he still treats me like a dear friend and a brother. Hell, I d

    CHAPTER 69H U G OAll of a sudden, I felt nervous for no reason when Rose left the car. I know she wanted to tell me something but she just stopped herself because of Dominique. But what could it be? What have she seen?"You okay Hugo?" Dominique glances at me while she sways Bethany."I'm fine. I'm just..." I trailed off.I glance at Bethany and noticed that she has been crying since Rose left. "What do I do Hugo?" She asks me.I stepped on the brake, "Take the wheel and hand me Beth.""I can tame her down, trust me on this." Dominique insists."Bethany's face is already turning red and she's already crying too hard. Let me carry her." I stepped out of the car and walked to Dominique's door.I opened it for her and gently grabbed Bethany. Dominique stares at me before she walks to the driver's seat. I carefully climbed inside and watch Dominique getting pissed. She slams the door and starts the engine of my car as I stare at her and she's just absentmindedly looking straight ahead.

She can't do anything about it because she's tied so she let them touch her body disrespectfully since she obviously looked weak from her gunshot wound.Worst scenario is, I can't believe Ridge is letting them touch his own sister.From the corner of my eyes, I see Audrey walking up to me with a tray of foods and

    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.
