CHAPTER 83

I froze with what he said to me. I'm trying to process everything inside my head if he was joking or not but Landon wasn't laughing and neither was I. The wind was blowing through our hairs but we were both silent after those words.

I fake a laugh, "It's not yet April Landon."

"I'm serious." He says sternly.

I moved my head back to him, "What?"

"I've been..." He breathes heavily. "I've been thinking about it lately and I think it's best if I just... Set you--"

"No." I cut him off. "You can't decide for both of us. I have the right to actually say something about this marriage too Landon. Not just you."

My tears building fast inside my eyes and my heart is hurting.

"I've been so selfish Miranda. I've been selfish to you and to Hugo. I've only thought about my happiness the entire time we were together. I didn't think of how you felt when you were with me. And I didn't know how much you were hurting." He says.

"What are you even saying?" I asked.

The kids were still with Landon's mom so I follow him inside the foyer where he stopped, so I stopped too. He stares at me and I know he's trying his very best to be strong for himself.He extends a hand, "Let's make dinner together for the first time."I stare at his blue eyes and I am sure that he was hurt so I take his hand as we walk silently to the kitchen. We began to grab the things we need as if we know what we were going to make. I side glance at Landon and he was busy getting some spices from the fridge while I take out the possible pans we were going to use."Let's make that pasta you showed me the other night." He says calmly, as if we didn’t talk about having the divorce."Alright." I sniff, wiping my tears from my cheeks.We began to chop everything we need for the sauce while Landon was busy boiling the linguine inside th

He walks his way to the living room while I follow him there. My eyes darted at him right away when he begins to take his trench coat off, loosened his tie then placed it over the table and finally unbuttoned the first three buttons of his black dress shirt while he pulled out the hems that he inserted in between in pants.Oh god that was fucking hot.He looks at me, "Do you want it hot or cold?"I gulped.Fucking hot. My malicious mind tells me. I shake my head right away. Stop thinking naughty things Miranda. He's talking about the coffee. You're making yourself horny again. I scolded myself.We went silent."Your coffee?" He asked."Yeah." I snapped myself out from my own thoughts. "Hot." I answered, clearing my throat. "I like it hot."He grins at me, giving me an evil stare while he was licking his lips. "I like it hot too." He muf

I miss seeing his dimpled smile.His long brown curly hair. His handsome face. And how I feel when he's around me. So whenever I miss him, I just stare at Ben and then I get reminded of Hugo in him. I even hug Ben tight just so I could feel like I'm hugging Hugo too.During the past months, when I try to reach out to Hugo, he doesn't answer his phone. He doesn't even answer my text that much and I feel like something is wrong with how he's treating me. I know he's giving me space so I could at least have a little time for myself from everything that happened, but then I think he's really doing it wrong.He is really avoiding me.But then I try to hope he's not.Maybe he's just sleeping when I'm calling him or he's just pretty much busy with his work that's why he doesn't answer my text all the time.

Ben and Bethany was having so much fun together with their dad and I was happy to see them being so happy together.When it was already getting late, Bethany had already fallen asleep on Hugo's lap where he had been humming a song to her. I walked to Hugo and carried the sleeping Bethany over my arms."You're putting her to bed?" Hugo asks."Yeah. Looks like she's pretty tired." I answered him."I'll help you." He offers."No. It's fine. Just enjoy your time with Ben. I'll put Bethany to sleep."I walked my way up to Bethany's bedroom while Ben and Hugo were still having a good talk at the living room. I carefully placed her on top of her bed, pulled the blanket up to her chin and kissed her cheek. I went down the stairs again, and heard my boys talking about random stuff that men would talk about. They even mentioned about women and Ben was asking Hugo how he could ask his crush out for a date.Good

He says, patting the couch gently.I slowly walk my way to him and sat down silently with my knees flexed against my chest, as I wrapped my arms around my legs.

I'm sorry for all the years that I've never been with you. I'm sorry for being away and for staying away. I was just insanely jealous with the things that I've been hearing lately."My brows crea

    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.
