2020-11-23 22:43:28The moment a tear was about to escape my eye, I averted from our gaze. I knew he didn't deserve my tears, but I just couldn't stop crying whenever I thought of him. He was a pain to my heart.
Bella stared at me. I could tell she was worried, so I decided to smile to make her think I was fine. She returned my smile, nodded, gesturing I had to keep calm.
"You don't wanna see my beautiful girl?" Jason said, speaking to Roy who was still standing behind me.
Roy turned around the bed, stood beside Jason, sat on a stool there. Jason took the baby from Bella, so he would show Roy. As Roy smiled at the baby, I swallowed. Why did I have a feeling he would get to know about my pregnancy?
"She's so cute," he remarked. "I hope to have a baby like her someday."
When his eyes met mine, I looked away. All I could think of was, so he wanted a baby someday? Or, was he saying thi

Quivering, I turned my neck to spot who had hit Tyler. Ah, shit, it was Roy. How in the world did he get here? In the first place, what was he doing here? Had he followed me all the way to my dorm?I wiped my tears, put my eyes down. This was more like an assault. Tyler had forced me to kiss him. What else could he have done if Roy hadn't come here on time? To aggravate this commotion, Tyler had kind of mentioned he was obsessed with me. He had also said he had liked me even before he had met me at the store that night.Was this the reason he had known my name even though I hadn't told him that night? Had he been stalking me even before that time? Gosh, what? Where did he know me from?I sobbed, feeling so bitter.Roy probably got too enraged, so he grabbed Tyler, threw a punch against Tyler's jaw. I hated violence, but yeah, an idiot who tried to force himself on a woman, deserved

"I can't believe my baby will finally be graduating!" Mom's squeal made me giggle. Sometimes, she acted like a teenager."I'm equally excited." I kept the last folded blanket into her wooden wardrobe, shut it, and joined her on the bed. "Also, I'll have enough time to take care of my pregnancy. Like damn, it's been so hard trying to pay attention to the poor thing in my belly. I really feel sad for it. It kind of didn't come at the right time."She smiled at me. "It came at the right time, honey.""Nah." I shook my head. "It didn't. I know it's a good thing, but let's be sincere. It didn't.""Silly you." She chuckled, poked my arm.I sighed. "I didn't know expecting a child could cost this much. And, you know I'm kind of working hard so we'll be able to pay our next month rent. The money I've spent on medicines isn't quite convenient for me.""Wel

The only thing that sounded in this store was the sizzling sound of the old air conditioner. Everything else was boring. If Tyler hadn't shown his true colors, he would probably be the one to make this place cheerful. Also, my boss was a cheerful person, but she wasn't around tonight.Exhausted, I knocked my forehead against the counter, sighed. For goodness' sake, I didn't know why I still worked here. Well, I guessed it was because of the partial high pay. It didn't matter if it was boring. At least, it was only for a while.After a bit of hesitation, I took my phone from the pocket of my sweater. Yeah, my baggy sweater. Particularly, I was hesitant to take it, because my intention was to read Roy's text. I couldn't believe I was falling for his texts, but yes, his very frustrating-annoying-cute texts were slowly sinking into my senses. For a moment, I would think, “Is it really a big deal to give him a second chance?&rdq

I widened my eyes, tense as well. "How did it happen?" I finally spoke, after a while of being silent.She kept weeping hard. "I don't even know. Her boss, and the police just arrived at my place. Can you please come over?""Sure, sure," I replied to her."I'm so worried," she added.I hung up the call, turned to Kath. "Kath, I've got to leave. Tell your dad something came up.""Is there a problem?" She asked.I nodded. "Yes, Renee's gone missing.""Oh, really?" I could tell she was faking some concern. Renee was the last person Kath would be worried about, so there was no doubt Kath didn't care so much about Renee being missing."I'll leave now. Tell your dad I wish him a happy birthday," I added before turning around to take my leave. Kath had attempted to speak further, but of co

He took a step close, turned around to shut the door behind him. He didn't just shut it, he locked it. Ensuring it was completely locked, he focused back on me.I gulped. "Tyler? Y-You have…"I couldn't speak properly. It felt like a nightmare. He had said he liked me, but not for once had I thought he would go as far as kidnapping me. The night he had kissed me, I had seen desire running in his eyes, but I hadn't sensed an obsession.He put his hands into the pocket of his sweatpants, smirked even harder. "See, when I want something, I don't like being played around with.""You're insane?" I narrowed my eyes at him, overly shocked.He shrugged. "Let's not call it “insane”. I'll say I'm drunk with love. Love for you.""Hey!" I threw my hands up. Why did I have a feeling he was playing a prank on me? "Dude, are you nuts? Lo

My head hurt a lot. It seemed as if there was a rock on it. Heavy rock. Slowly, I raised my hand to hold the pain on my head. I was tired and weak. What was going on?Opening my eyes, the ray of light that passed through the window made me squint. Moving my gaze to my body, I noticed a blanket was around me. And, woah, what?! I was in a sleep shirt. A different cloth. Who could have possibly changed my clothes?"What exactly is wrong with them?" Hearing that voice, I flinched, and sat up straight. Oh, shit, it was Roy. He was walking into the room with a doctor.Doctor? Why a doctor? I didn't need a doctor!Soon, they reached me. Roy was intense in speaking with the old man. He didn't even glimpse at me. Could he be angry because he had seen me with Tyler last night? Silly. How could he be angry because of that? And wait, why did I even care about him being angry? I was the one who

ScottThe document in front of me was as stupid as frustrating. All its content seemed like a framed work. Who in the world could have typed something this gibberish?"Gregory!" I barked. Throwing my head back, tapping my feet against the hard marble floor, drumming my fingers against the glass table in front of me, I glared, impatiently waiting for the idiot to come into my study room."Sir." One of my guys, Gary, hurried in, bowed his head. "Gregory isn't around. He said he had to go on an errand you had sent him to do."I twitched one of my eyebrows, being furious. "Errand? Which errand are you speaking of?"I don't know about that, sir. That's what he told me before he left," he replied."You all are irresponsible!" I yelled, and slapped my palm against the table. "Just leave here, moron. You work for me, but you don't e

I was furious. Of all the things I hated, betrayal was what I hated most. Yes, I had betrayed some people in the past, but that was only for a game. Whoever I had betrayed in the past, wasn't so relevant in my life. But that wasn't the same case here.I had been taking care of Greg since he was eighteen. Since the last twelve years, he had been with me. I ensured he studied at a good university, I employed him at my office, he was my highest paid worker. So what in the world could have made him do this?"You idiot!" I hurried to him. Overwhelmed with anger, I grabbed the collar of his shirt, hit him hard across the face. "You wanna get me doomed? After all I've done for you?"Non-stop, I keep hitting him. He deserved to be dealt with. I didn't care to know who he had been talking with on the phone, or the reason he was doing this. All I just wanted to do was to hit him to death. He was the last person I expected to

Chasing Her Epilogue
Renee______My hands tugged against the guardrails of the bed I was laid on. This pain? I hadn't ever experienced such physical pain in my entire life. At this moment, I appreciated my mom more than ever before."Ah!" My voice didn't come from my vocal cord, it came all the way from my abdomen, went through my lungs, then escaped via my lips. This pain felt like death."It'll be fine." Roy caressed my hair, seeming so worried."Push!" The nurse cried."Lord, help me!" I screamed further, trying to catch my breath, weeping so hard. A loud high-pitched sound banged in my ears, my head felt heavy, my body was full of discomfort.He pecked my forehead. "A little more effort, okay? Just a few more pushes.""A little more force needed," the nurse announced.&nb
Chasing Her Fifty one: Fate
I held mom's hand tight, so worried. It had been up to an hour since she woke up, yet she wasn't saying anything to me. She only continued to weep hard, harder than I had ever seen. I had asked her a couple of questions, but got no reply."I can't believe this," she finally spoke.I shifted closer to her, cupped her hand tighter. "I don't get what's going on. Please, say something to me."She finally looked at me. "That's John. That's… your father."I gave her a neutral expression, not knowing what to say or do. My father? The man who had died since I was a baby? Wait, what? Was this a world of fantasy? How in the world did he wake up from the dead?"Mom, that's Pablo. Are you sure you aren't seeing things?" I bit my lower lip when I said that.She sighed. "I don't even know how to react to this. It feels so… unreal. I'm sure S
Chasing Her Fifty: What?!
"Roy, come downstairs!" I cried, grumbling and frowning at myself. Goodness knew what he was doing up there. "Do you want your food to get cold? Don't make me come there and break your bones!""I'm coming, ma'am." He mumbled some things, as he walked down the stairs.Hot, he really was. He was in a sweatpant, a sweatshirt, and slippers. His hair was a bit wet and tousled, some of its strands slipping on his eyebrows. But, that didn't obstruct his beauty. As he took each step down, those arms moved back and forth as if he was bragging about his muscles.He squeezed his face a little, yawned in between. I could tell he still wanted to sleep, but couldn't do that because I had forced him to take a bath earlier than usual. Lazy dude. He didn't wanna go to work anymore."Gosh, why won't you let me sleep? What have I done to deserve this punishment?" He pecked my cheek from behind, and se
Chasing Her Forty nine: Agreed.
I turned back to Scott. His mouth and eyes were dropped. Mom's reply was what he wanted to hear, but that was probably not what he had expected her to say. She groaned from behind, which made me turn back to her. She was trying to get up. Yep, I ought to help her get up, but I was quite angry that she had agreed to give him the necklace."Mom?" I walked to her, and scoffed. "You wanna— what the heck?""Honey." She gasped for air, grumbling a bit as a result of how tired she seemed. "I can't risk your life. He's threatening us at gun point. We should just get rid of him for good. There's no need for you to worry, okay?""But, I can't…" I began to cry. I was so short of words. My mom would start a relationship with my boyfriend's dad? Absolutely ridiculous!"Honey, please—"Just when she was about to speak, the loud sound of… oh my goodness! Si
Chasing Her Forty eight: I'll do it
The thought that could poof into my head, was going on my knees and begging this irritating dude to spare us. Now, I understood why mom wanted us to leave the country as soon as possible. But, the irritating thing was, why the heck were we running away from a criminal? Criminals were the ones who ought to leave, not us!"Scott, at this point, you should know that this isn't possible. I've been guiding my late husband's possession since God-knows-when," Mom sputtered, glowering at him. "So, please, forget about the filthy necklace.""I. Won't." He spat out.She scorned at him. "Then let's see how you'll get it. In two hours, your twenty-five years bet will diminish. John will lose all the money to the betting company, while you'll get nothing!""I swear, I'll kill you." He moved close to her, jerked her jaw, pulled my darling mom up. I could kill him as well!"You won't dare
Chasing Her Forty Seven: Absolutely no one
Life was the same as boring. There was no Roy to stare at me whenever I woke up in the morning, there was no baby in my tummy to adore, there was no one to keep my company. Mom, who was the only available person around me, was facing a bit of depression.Ever since I had told her about how I had lost my pregnancy, she hadn't been doing fine at all. She had said she had already been knitting sweaters for her unborn grandchild, not knowing the innocent thing would be killed by some morons.Little by little, I was getting rid of the pain of losing the pregnancy, but not a bit had I gotten rid of my love for Roy. I guessed we had a really strong bond. To be frank, in the last one week, sometimes, I would think of speaking with him, but I didn't know how to. Probably, if he hadn't affirmed that this relationship was over, I could have tried to at least call or send a text to him. But, since he had said he didn't want it anymore, I gue
Chasing Her Forty six: Relationship Counsellor
Being shocked was an understatement. Not for once had I thought I would ever get to see her again. When she had first gone to the hospital, I used to visit her, and sometimes, had prepared her favorite dishes. But, when the doctor had told Bella and I that she had been close to death, we had decided to stop going to the hospital in order to prevent ourselves from being too hurt."Virg!" I jumped from my seat, threw my body against hers, cuddling her crazily.She giggled, hugging me tight as well. "Missed you so much, honey.""Oh my goodness." Pulling away, I pecked her on the cheek. "I can't believe you're… alive."She shrugged. "Me too. I can't believe I'm alive."I poked her arm. "Gosh, you've made me so glad tonight. Wanna go somewhere and talk?""Sure." She nodded."Kk." I took my purse from the table. T
Chasing Her Forty five: End
After a moment of being glued to my tracks, I managed to drop the bottle of water and glass, on the bed. Doing that, I traipsed to her, my legs feeling like it would break soon.Immediately I stood in front of her, she put her eyes down. "I'm sorry. I know this might hurt you. As well, I'm hurt. It took me a while to make this decision, but I've made up my mind. And I know it'll be good for us both.""Are you crazy?" I huffed. I hadn't even known when those words had spilled from my mouth. "You want to leave me? In this ruckus?"She raised her head to me, tears in her eyes. "Please, understand this. Breaking up is what we need at this point. Many people don't want us to be together.""But, that's—""We lost our child!" She roared. The seriousness in her tone intensified, tears already trickling down her cheek. "I've been kidnapped twice, I keep on being threatened, I
