ETHAN'S POV

They say pain comes in different dimensions and often times, embarrassment hurts more than it but if I had the power to shift the hand of the clock, i would definitely say that i get embarrassed every day of my life than face this kind of pain that was coursing through my veins.

I watched in agony as Reina dragged Andrew away, his small hands reaching out for me.

"But mummy, this uncle is a nice man. I was already getting bullied by some kids that my daddy won't show up when he came. Surely, he deserves to be called Daddy for just today." The small kid stated and my eyes welled up in tears. How broken I would.be when it is finally cemented that he is not my child, if I'm able to survive the pain then I'm pretty sure I can survive every other thing.

"Let him go, Reina. Just few more minutes won't do any harm.." I begged, my voice echoing down the hallway.

"Andrew? Where is daddy?" Reina asked and I used my hand ker chief to wipe my eyes that were already red and hot

    REINA'S POV. "What did you say, Andrew? There's no way Ethan is here right?" I turned to stare at Bruce who was smoothening Andrew's hair as he had just ran inside. "I don't think the child saw a ghost, Reina. If he said he saw Ethan, then there is every possiblity that Ethan is here." Bruce stood up walking towards the door and it seemed like our hearts were in sync because that's exactly what I wanted to do. "Are you?" I didn't complete the question when he nodded and I ruffled Andrew's hair slightly. "Baby, stay here okay? I and uncle is going to be back soon." I assured and he nodded I stormed up the stairs with Bruce by my side, expecting to see Ethan walking away when I saw them. How ironically beautiful. He was here not just alone but with his wife. Ethan and Ravenna, standing there like they owned the place though one could feel the spite and anger between them but it didn't deter me from walking over to them. "What are you doing here?" I spat, my anger boiling over as

    REINA'S POV "Oh my goodness, Reina." Bruce rushed towards me and dragged my seat from Ravenna's bleeding body. I thought that she was going to pass out or die from the impact but she was still very much living and breathing but at least, my anger had calmed down a bit."Just when I think to myself, that okay. It's time to stop. You give me another news to feed to the media." Ravenna winced, holding the side of he chair in pain."You daughter of a bitch. Who told you that you could take shit about me anytime, anywhere and won't face the consequences?" I questioned with hands akimbo as Bruce typed away at his phone. This whole situation was infuriating me and for some reasons, I wished that Ethan was here to witness this.We heard footsteps from down below and it turned out to be Ethan who was actually coming out of his apartment and as he got to where he was standing, he just shrugged and sighed."Now that is cold." He simply said and walked off and I wondered when the man I knew beca

    REINA'S POV With my head held up high and my shoulders poised, confidence on a maximum level, I walked into the conference hall determined to defend myself in every way possible. I was going to do my utmost best and not be intimidated.I pushed the conference door open and stepped inside, surveying their faces when someone ushered me to a seat just nearby by Ethan making my skin crawl but I couldn't show any signs of discomfort.I masked it all up with a smile and sat down after greeting the entire members of the board."Good day everyone." I greeted and they answered in unison before I take my seat."Good morning everyone." Ethan took the floor immediately I saw down, his voice drilling with hoarseness and authority. A fucking lunatic that I detest."This morning, there was a lot of drama surrounding me that could have totally affected the company growth if it isn't curved." Seriously? He is going to be the one to talk about how I bashed Ravenna's head against the wall here? Then i

    REINA"So if you didn't submit the weekly design, who did?" Ethan asked once again and I shook my head in confusion.At this point, he was talking like my boss and not my baby daddy that hurt me and I had no other choice than to be professional."I'm so sorry for this sir, I'll sort it out and report back to your office." I excused myself and called an impromptu meeting with all the staffs that were under me."So as you're all aware, the Triple A project is almost coming to a wrap and though that's not what I'm here to talk about, I'm proud of everyone that has taking out their time to work consistently following the success of the project." Everyone applauded as I decided t tread carefully.The person who did this must have had another motive in mind for submitting such poorly designed piece of art so I had to be careful and not make any accusations or assumptions."Another news I'll like us all to know is that our design for the week has been uploaded." There was no applause as the

    Ethan's POV"I told you to back down, I told you this to get the fuck away from Ravenna. Just for the great reason of not wanting you to ruin her reputation, i decided not to get any information from you but instead of backing down, you decide to do the exact opposite and try to get her arrested." I was pacing to and fro the hospital room unable to contain my anger but also trying not to channel them in the wrong dimension."Oh, so I'm supposed to enjoy the fact that you bashed my head on the wall huh? Perhaps I should release something about you." Ravenna sighed as she chugged down the glass of water that was laying on one part of her bed."Ravenna, you're really testing my patience right now. Back down already." I yelled and the nurses ran into the ward."Is there anything that bothers you, Mrs Ravenna? Is anything the matter?" They questioned and I shook my head in negativity. They just have heard my voice and decided that something must have happened o Ravenna."How do you think p

    REINA. "Today has been a very long day," i thought to myself as I cleared my desk for the day. I was about ordering an Uber because Ethan had unapologetically taken my car to God knows where without giving as much as a explanation, when my office telephone immediately began ringing. "Hello, we're closed for the day." I bellowed into the receiver as I was about ending the call when a voice came. "Are we speaking to a Miss Reina Gray?" Didn't the person just hear when I said that we are closed for the day? People love been dramatic. "Yes, you're onto miss Reina Gray. We are closed for the day." My voice was more loud and clear at this point to stress my point that I was tired of the conversation before it even started. "We got this number from a Mahindra Thar Roxx, with the car plate number of AE7888. Does it belong to you?" I nodded my head frantically like they could see me as my body grew tense. "Yes, it belongs to me. Did something happen?" I questioned letting go of my bag.

    REINA "You do realize that you're hurting my wrist, right?" I tried wiggling out of his grasp but that seemed impossible as he held on to my wrist, while glaring at me like i was his adversary."So now you're Reina Walters? His wife?" I have never seen this man like this and now that I have, I swear that I never want to see this side of him ever again."Bruce, you're hurting me." I raised my voice a little and pulled away from his hold, rubbing my sore wrist, I wondered what had come over him."Why are they referring to you as Mrs Walters? You really told them that you're his wife?" He yelled and the nurse stared back and forth."Bruce, get a hold on your attitude. You're scaring me." I realized that this wasn't the time to talk to Bruce and get him to understand why I did what I did so I just sighed and walked off.On getting to the hospital ward, there were a lot of wires connected to Ethan's body and additional to that? He was also on life support."How did you get yourself into

    REINA"What did you say?" He coughed profusely and his eyes turned bloodshot red as he stared at me."Are you okay?" I patted his back slowly so he would calm down and he nodded in response to my question."Yes, I'm fine. I'm okay." He stated and turned his head to the side to get a clear view of me properly."Did you hear what you just said?" He asked again and I chuckled slightly."Call it compensation. After All, this happened to you in my car so it's slightly my fault. I have to do this." I smiled to the nurse dismissing her while Ethan kept staring at me with eyes wide open like he was in disbelief of what I said.I'm equally in disbelief of what I said so that makes the feeling mutual."So I'll have to start living with you? I'm your house?" I nodded trying my best not to lock eye contact with him as I knew that I might try to Keep my attitude intact but my face would give away how embarrassed I was feeling.Let's not forget that I practically just kissed him."Sorry to interrup

    Reina “Do you want a new car? Or a new apartment?” Ethan teased. “Anyone, my love. A Lamborghini won't be bad, you know.” I turned to face him, and there it was, the smile I had come to know and love over the years. It was the smile that had carried me through the darkest days, the one that had reassured me when I didn’t know how to move forward. The evening was calm and beautiful qne Andrew was at a friend’s house for a sleepover, and Ethan and I were alone for the first time in a while. Alone, but not lonely. We were never lonely when we had ourselves. “I’m looking,” I said softly, walking toward him. “And I see a family that’s been through hell and back, and yet we still survived it.” Ethan reached out to pull me into his arms and held me tight as if he was scared to let me go. “We have always been strong. It was just a matter of time before we realized it.” I rested my head on his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart. This was home. This was everything

    Reina It was a morning like any other, except it wasn’t. I had just received the news I had been waiting for, hoping for, but still uncertain if it would ever come true. I had gotten another job. It was a job that would challenge me, push me out of my comfort zone, and finally allow me to make a real name for myself in the world I had always longed to be part of. As I stood in the kitchen, staring at the email, I could not stop the tears that filled my eyes. I had worked so hard for this moment, and now that it was here, I was overwhelmed with gratitude and disbelief. “Reina? What’s wrong?” Ethan asked, stepping into the room. His voice was soft, and his concern was evident in his eyes. I couldn’t speak at first, so I just handed him my phone, pointing to the email. He took it from me, his eyes scanning the screen. His face lit up as he read the words. “Wait… you got it? You really got it?” I nodded, my throat tight. “Yes. It’s real, Ethan. They offered me the position. I t

    Reina The day had finally come. The day I had been both dreading and hoping for. The day Ethan and I would renew our vows. I had spent so much time imagining what it would feel like, but now that the moment was here, I was filled with excitement and a little nervousness. After everything we had been through, I was not sure how I would feel standing up in front of our friends and family, saying the same vows we made years ago. But this time, I was going to say them with more meaning, more depth, and more love than I ever had before. Ethan had gone above and beyond to make this day perfect, and I had already walked into the garden where it would all happen. It looked like a dream. “Mommy, you look beautiful!” Andrew said, his eyes wide with admiration as he helped me adjust my dress. I laughed softly. “Thank you, baby. You look very handsome too.” He beamed in his little tuxedo, looking just like his father. When Ethan walked in to check on me, I could not help but smil

    : A New Beginning (Ethan POV) --- I never thought I’d feel this nervous again. The last time I felt anything close to this was the first time I asked Reina out. But now, standing in our living room with the small box in my pocket, I felt like a teenager unsure if the girl would say yes. Andrew was asleep in his room, and Reina was curled up on the couch, reading a book. Her hair was loosely tied back, and she was wearing one of my old sweatshirts. She looked so comfortable, so at peace, and for a moment, I just stood there, watching her. “Why are you staring at me like that?” she asked, not even looking up from her book. I chuckled nervously. “Do I need a reason to stare at my wife?” She finally looked up, raising an eyebrow. “No, but it’s weird when you’re just standing there silently. What’s going on?” I took a deep breath and walked over, sitting beside her. “Reina, can we talk?” She frowned, closing her book. “Is something wrong?” “No, nothing’s wrong,” I assured her. “In

    Ethan “ A therapist? We are going to see a therapist, Ethan?” Reina blurted out and I had to calm her down that it's for the better. “Yes. I made that decision and I have already paid for a session. It is a good thing and I think our marriage will get better.” “Oh dear. I'm just scared.” *** Sitting across from Reina in the therapist’s office felt a little weird and I was trying to keep up. This was the first time we had actually met with a therapist about us. The therapist, a calm woman in her mid-50s named Dr. Laura smiled gently at us. “Thank you for coming today. The first step to healing is often the hardest, so I commend you both for being here.” I glanced at Reina, who gave me a small, nervous smile. “We are ready,” I said, squeezing her hand. “Good. Why don’t we start with why you’re here? What made you decide to seek therapy now?” Dr. Laura asked. I looked at Reina, silently asking if she wanted to go first. She nodded and took a deep breath. “I think we h

    Reina Evans was at my house again. This time, I was very convinced that he had something off his sleeves. How can someone who I haven't seen in years suddenly show up in the new country where I relocated to? Has he been stalking me all these years? Evans stood at the door, his hands shoved in his pockets, and today he looked so confident in himself. But, I was here to destroy whatever confidence he had. I had hoped I would see the last of him after his first visit, but here he was again, uninvited and unwelcome. “What are you doing here again, Evans? Haven't I told you that I don't want you around me?” I thundered and my pulse was racing. “I needed to talk to you,” he responded calmly, despite my raging anger. “I don’t think we got to finish our conversation the last time.” “There’s nothing left to talk about,” I said, stepping out onto the porch and closing the door behind me. I didn’t want Ethan or Andrew overhearing any of this. “Reina, please,” he said, his eyes pleadin

    Ethan I didn’t know where I was driving. I just needed to get out of the house. My hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, my mind racing with thoughts of Reina, Evans, and everything that had gone wrong. Evans. Just hearing his name made my blood boil. The nerve of him to show up out of nowhere, to text me like he was some concerned friend. And Reina, why hadn’t she told me right away? She keeps doing things like this and it pisses me off. She of all people knows that something like this was the cause of our problem sometime ago. I pulled into an empty parking lot and turned off the engine. When I finally walked back into the house hours later, the living room was dimly lit, and Reina was sitting on the couch, her knees pulled up to her chest. She looked up as I entered, her eyes red and puffy. “You are back,” she said softly. I didn’t answer, dropping my keys on the table and heading for the kitchen. “Ethan,” she called after me with her voice trembling. I paused, leani

    ReinaI was wiping down the kitchen counter when the doorbell rang. Andrew was upstairs, resting after a long day of physical therapy, and Ethan had stepped out to pick up a few things from the store.It was odd for someone to come by unannounced, especially at this hour. I wiped my hands on a towel and I headed for the door to check who was there. I was so curious and at the same time cautious that I checked the security camera three times. When I opened it, my heart stopped. I thought I was dreaming or something. “Evans,” I whispered, gripping the doorframe right. He was standing there, looking exactly as I remembered him. He was quite tall, with those piercing blue eyes and well shaved beards. But seeing him now didn’t fill me with the same warmth it once did. Instead, it felt like a bucket of cold water had been splashed over me.“Reina,” he said, his voice soft but steady. “I hope I’m not intruding.”“What are you doing here?” I asked, my voice sharper than I intended. He w

    Ethan “Our anniversary was tomorrow?!” That was my exact reaction when I checked the calendar and I saw that I had long forgotten the date of our anniversary . An idea had come to me while sitting in the car, waiting for Reina to return from the grocery store. Our anniversary was tomorrow, and I wanted to do something special. Something that would remind her of the good times we had shared before everything got complicated.I had been racking my brain all week, trying to come up with the perfect plan. Reina deserved something meaningful, something that was not just flowers and a card. She needed to see how much she meant to me.“Okay, Ethan,” I muttered to myself as I parked in front of the house. “You will get our way around this.”The plan was simple yet heartfelt. I was planning a surprise dinner at the place where we had had our first official date before we got married. It was not the fanciest restaurant, but it held a special place in our hearts. I had reserved a private cor
