Chapter 69

"And your sister wants to see you," Mommy said with a sad tone. I looked at them questioningly, but all I received in response was a nod.

Sitting outside Aria's room were Manang Renee, Jiro, and Kent. The lined-up chairs resembled a waiting area. I looked at each of them, and I could see the same emotions in their eyes—sadness.

I nodded to Mommy and then grabbed the doorknob, taking a deep breath before entering Aria's room. I found her looking out the window, with sunlight streaming in.

"Aria," I called out to her. She turned to face me and smiled. I approached her and kissed her forehead. "How are you?" I asked, scanning her condition. She had an IV attached to her right arm and was wearing a hospital gown.

"I'm not really fine," she said, and then she sat down. I was about to hand her a tissue when she covered her mouth with her hand. When she removed it, I saw that her hand was stained with blood. I gasped and handed her the tissue.

"I'll call the doctor," I was about t

    Chapter 70"Kent?" I couldn't believe my eyes as I saw him standing at our doorstep, holding a bouquet of flowers and chocolates. Kuya Santi, our driver, was also there, carrying two life-size teddy bears.We were both taken aback as Kuya Santi entered our house and went straight to the entertainment room to place the teddy bears there."What are you doing here?" Kenzo asked him, but neither of us received an answer. Kent and Kuya Santi went inside our house without a word."Kent?" I called out to him again. He calmly sat on our sofa and placed the flowers and chocolates on the center table. His gaze shifted between me and Kenzo."I'm here to court you," he said seriously, and neither Kenzo nor I could respond.-One week later-I held my growing belly as I saw Kent standing at our doorstep once again, this time with flowers and chocolates in hand. It had been a week, and he still hadn't given up on pursuing me. Despite all my efforts to push him away, he persisted."Kent, I'm already

    Chapter 72"Ken...zo," I called out nervously to Kenzo as our eyes met. All I received was a cold stare. He held my hand tightly, and when I tried to pull away, he tightened his grip even more."Kenzo, it hurts," I complained to him, but all I got in response were a string of curses directed at Kent."You bastard! You motherfcker! Just because I was gone for a while, you think you can touch my wife?! You're just a fcking intruder! Godd*mn it, Pre! I even gave you a chance, I agreed to let you take her to your island!"Kenzo finally let go of me, and then he lunged at Kent, attempting to throw a punch, but Kent quickly dodged it."Kenzo! Kent! Stop it!" I tried to intervene. I was about to reach them when Kent charged at Kenzo, but he missed and ended up smashing the center table in the entertainment room.I screamed at the sight of it. I looked around, hoping someone would come and help, but no one was in sight. I couldn't even find anyone to at least check on the broken table. No one

    Chapter 73Nothing lasts forever. People come and go, and no one stays permanently. Just like her. I lit a candle as I sat beside her grave."Hey... It's been a while. How are you?" I asked, and as usual, a strong gust of wind was the response. I smiled as I reached for a pack of cigarettes in my pocket. I lit one and looked up at the clear blue sky."You know what, it's going to be a very long day for all of us. I really wish you were here with us. It's their wedding day, and I'm one of their best men..." There was no emotion in my voice as I spoke to her."I'm sure you're watching me right now, so... Do I look good in this suit and tie?" I took another puff of my cigarette."I hope so." I glanced at my wristwatch. "I'm sorry, but I need to go or I'll be late." I stood up and walked away from her grave.This is it! There's no turning back. I told myself as I looked at everyone. They were all busy with the wedding, and it was about to start any minute."I've been looking for you! Wher

    He sighed and looked at me from head to toe. I couldn't help but avert my gaze and slump my shoulders. Now I'm sure he doesn't like what I'm wearing. Sigh."Wait, I'll go change," I told him and as I was about to enter our room, he grabbed my arm. "Ero," I called out to him."I think I changed my mind, I don't want to go out and swim," he said, and I felt like the world crashed down on me. I was so excited to go swimming, and now he changed his mind. Seriously!I bit my lower lip in frustration. I wish I hadn't worn this yellow two-piece. I wish I had worn white or black instead. Urgh! Why did I choose yellow?"I don't want to swim," Ero said, and I couldn't help but pout! Fine! Fine! If he doesn't want to swim, there's no need to repeat it over and over again! It just makes me more disappointed. Knowing Ero, he wouldn't let me swim alone if that's the case."Fine! It's so annoying how you keep repeating it," I said softly, but he heard me. He suddenly lifted me up like a sack of rice

    I thought he was going to take me right away, but he just hovered over me and returned to kissing my neck, leaving his marks. I don't know if I'm okay with the thought of having hickeys on my neck, but what he's doing feels so good. His kisses are addictive, like my favorite foods.But I want more. More from Ero. I want him inside me. Gosh! I moved my hips closer to him, making sure he could feel his hot and hard member. We both moan, but he didn't do anything to take me. God! I want him now!"Ero, you are so frustrating!" I said in annoyance. "Why don't you take me now?" I asked him. He laughed and kissed me on my left cheek."Someone is so impatient," he teased me. I glared at him but gasped when he suddenly entered inside me, completely. Gosh! It feels so good, especially as he began to move on top of me.As expected, I woke up to find Ero no longer beside me. Where is that guy again? I looked around our room and saw my clothes on the chair next to the bedside table. I quickly grab

    "Oh, fine. Let's get serious then. What kind of assurance is it?" I asked him."Kendall, I want to keep you forever. Don't worry, I'll make you fall in love with me soonest. The kind of love that you can't even think of leaving me. The kind of love that will last even when death comes and keeps us apart. I want to prove to you that forever really exists."I instinctively covered my mouth with both hands and tears began to flow uncontrollably as Ero suddenly knelt in front of me, and the singer approached with a rose in hand.The guy who was playing the instrument earlier was holding a diamond ring this time. The diamond on it was so big that my eyes widened in surprise. I'm not exaggerating, but it's really huge."E-Ero, what if we get mugged? The diamond is so big," I said, trying to hold back my laughter, but he glared at me, and I immediately made a peace sign. I don't want Ero to devour me alive. Hehe."Oh, fine, let's get serious. What kind of assurance is it?" I asked him."Kend

    "Mom just called and she wants me back at work tomorrow morning." Oh right, we've been overstaying here at the beach. Initially, we planned to stay until Sunday, but we extended it for two more days and one night because we got married here."We can go back now." I said to him as I caressed his back. I heard him sigh and then he faced me, gave me a peck, and touched our foreheads together."But..." He didn't continue what he was about to say, he avoided eye contact and pouted. I furrowed my brows. What's wrong? Why is my cute husband acting all cute? Woo! I can't help but feel kilig when I call him my husband.Until now, I still can't believe that Ero and I are married. I held both of his cheeks and faced him towards me."But what?" I asked him. He averted his gaze again, but I quickly caught his eyes. What's up with him? Oh my, this man! He's so big but acts so cute! Hmp!"We haven't made love yet." He whispered softly, but it was enough for me to hear, and I couldn't help but smile.

    EndingI didn't know what to say to Aiden. I was happy and hurting at the same time. Happy because I could feel and hear Aiden's endless love for me, and hurting because I needed to be with Arden."I'm sorry, Aiden, you can't change my mind. Arden... Arden needs me more than you do."When I looked at the left side of my body, I noticed there was a cast from my fingers down to my arm. That's why I was in so much pain earlier; I had broken a bone! What's going to happen now? How am I going to go to school? How will I manage my daily routine with a broken left hand? And I'm left-handed!"But when I received Mia's call, I also left the site immediately to see you," Ero said without pause."This is nothing... just a small accident," I replied. I noticed Ero's eyebrows furrow and a hint of annoyance in his response, as if he was about to explode in anger."If it was just a small accident, why are you here in the hospital? Have you seen your hand? Why is it in a cast? Why didn't Manang Ameli

    "Kendall, break up with Jacobo. I swear, if you choose me over him, you won't regret a single thing. I am single and not married. I am all yours, you have no rival." But I guess Kendall is really a stubborn girl."Mom, I'm sure they don't see each other anymore. Dad must be busy with his work, and it's only six PM. Wait for him until seven. I'll call him for you, so stop worrying. Alright?" I told Mommy. Fortunately, she stopped crying and agreed to what I said. Sigh.Mommy is getting more stressed because of Kendall and Dad, and I really-really need to do something. The doctor said that it's bad for Mom's health to get stressed, and she should avoid it, but she can't help it because she always gets paranoid when Dad comes home late.I need to keep Kendall occupied, and if it means I have to be with her most of the time, then so be it. I know it sounds weird, but being with her feels so good. Damn. I think it's getting serious. I should hate her, right? She's Dad's mistress. She's a f

    "I don't know what I am missing for her to dislike me. I am good looking, and I am sure of that! I am also rich, and when I have my Dad's company, I'll be wealthier than her. I can give her everything that she wants and needs, no matter what it is—no matter how expensive, I will buy it for her, as long as she chooses me and doesn't run away just to be with Dad."Then, I gulped down the Jack Daniels I ordered. Instead of putting it in a shot glass, I drank it straight from the bottle. I want to get drunk to forget about Kendall. It's so f ucking weird. There's a painful feeling in my chest whenever I think about Kendall leaving me!"Dude, don't tell me you're attracted to your Dad's woman?" Liam suddenly asked me. I stopped drinking and met his gaze.Seriously?! I am attracted to Kendall? Hell no! I'm feeling like this because... uh—right! My ego is being stepped on! I'm hotter than Dad, for sure. I mean, look at me and Dad; I'm more masculine than him! It's just annoying because Kenda

    Urgh! I didn't know Kendall could also get on my nerves. How dare she say I have HIV, STDs, and other things just because I have multiple partners. Psh. It's not my fault that girls are pursuing me, okay?"You're just wasting your bras," I said to her as I stared at her chest. I smirked when I saw her cheeks turn red.She even crossed her arms over her chest, and I couldn't help but wickedly smile. Feeling uncomfortable? Well, you started it."You're only an A. Why wear a bra when you could go without one? Besides, you're flat-chested." And I burst out laughing.She called me a pervert, but seriously, she has to do her job now. I'm getting annoyed with the women who keep coming to the office, claiming that I impregnated them. Damn it! I'm a boy scout!Am I always attracting trouble? I can't understand why they're pinning their unborn children on me. I'm sure I'm not the only guy they've been with!But damn it! Kendall is really stubborn! It's hard to persuade her.

    "I love you too, Hon. Yes, I'll see you tomorrow. Don't worry, I told my wife that I have a dinner meeting, so she's not expecting me to be home later." Daddy nodded on the other end of the line."Alright. I can't wait to see you later. I love you. I'll hang up now." Daddy pocketed his phone. I don't know what to say. Seriously, I am f*cking speechless at the moment. Mom is right! Dad has a mistress!"Son?" Daddy called me. I composed myself as I faced him and pretended that I just arrived. "Have you been waiting long?" he asked. I immediately shook my head. I don't want him to know that I just found out about his dirty little secret."I just came. I'm here for this." I showed him the folder I was holding. He returned to his table and sat down. I approached him and casually placed the folder on his table. He furrowed his brows at my action."Sorry, it slipped from my hand," I said and shrugged. "Why didn't you just send it to your secretary?" he asked me. I couldn't help but wonder wh

    I quickly returned to my house to find out who arrived. Maybe it was one of Sydney or Kourtney's boyfriends? I wondered to myself. How sweet of them to come all the way to my house. Sigh.I couldn't help but feel envious again. I'm sure one of them is overjoyed right now because her beloved came to visit her, and of course, she's loved in return. True love, unlike what Ero and I had. I was the only one who truly loved.I entered the house and was surprised to see two tall men in suits and ties, looking like bodyguards.Wow, one of Kourtney or Sydney's boyfriends even has bodyguards. Is he that wealthy? Or is there someone who wants to harm him?"Kourt... Syd, who's our visitor?" I shouted from the entrance. It seemed like these bodyguards didn't care. They didn't even react when I shouted to call Kourtney.Kourtney and Sydney quickly came out of the kitchen. Kourtney had a glass of juice while Sydney carried a tray of snacks. Their reactions were incomprehensible. They seemed tense, a

    Kourtney paused in picking up my clothes and asked if Ero and I had a fight, to which I quickly shook my head."So what does this mean? You just... want to run away?" Sydney asked, still unsure. I nodded and was about to react when I raised my left hand to explain to them."Girls, I am such a b*tch for doing this, but you have to understand that I just fell in love." They raised their eyebrows at my statement. I knew they didn't fully grasp what I was saying, but thankfully, they remained silent. It would be harder to explain if they bombarded me with questions before I finished explaining."We all know that I was left behind. My mom and dad left me to be with their own families, and their spouses didn't want me. Luckily, you were there, so even though I didn't have my mom and dad, I wasn't that sad because I had you, until that day when I met Jacobo.""Who is Jacobo?" Sydney asked."Jacobo is my boyfriend... I meant, my ex-boyfriend.""What? How come we didn't know about him? And all
