The early months of Alex's marriage did not seem as optimistic as he had expected —he had thought getting married to Rosy would ease all his pains and show him what it truly means to love and be loved. It did happened but it was only for a short while; sooner than Alex had expected, he started experiencing extreme heartache. It was the opposite of what he had expected to happen.

Even with Rosy's presence, the house feels as though it's empty and deserted and he couldn't ignore the eerie feeling of someone missing —the non-existing presence of Lisa had made the house not worth staying for Alex.

Alex and Rosy's marriage had started with a great enthusiasm as he had once thought that Rosy's joy would filled the abyss in his heart, but over time, the painful truth dawned on him; the happiness of others was not enough to quench the monstrous thirst within him that keep growing as days roll by —it was a feeling he had ignored before their marriage.

    Lisa stood by the window, her eyes fixed on the distant horizon as the sun gradually waking up from its slumber and emerging from the darkness. The warmth of its first rays brushed against her face, casting a radiant glow through the room.Her hands, gentle and loving, the gentle curve of her swollen belly, feeling the soft movements of the lives growing inside it —she's already past her eight months and will be due in a few weeks; maybe two or three.In the hushed stillness of the room, a mix of emotions coursed through Lisa's heart. Happiness, tinged with a hint of sadness, painted a delicate smile on her face. It was a smile of anticipation, of dreams woven between the heartbeats of her unborn babies.Anyone would misinterpret that her smile was because of the rising sun. Well, partially true since it made her think of her unborn babies —they are, to her, the rising sun that puts smiles on its viewers lips."I wish for them to be born into a beautiful morning like this..." She whis

    Xavier had called Neil and Fred over to Alex's house which was practically his own house too —since he own nothing and was always squandering everything he's ripping off from The Dela Cruz groups, it's now Andy's responsibility to foot every of his father's bill. Xavier wasn't even ashamed of his irresponsibility, instead he saw it as an opportunity to exploit his children, Andy and Stephanie, and sharing whatever he gets from them with his brothers, Neil and Fred. Andy wasn't tired of his father's act nor did he complain, not even for once. To him, it's way better than seeing him exploiting money from the Dela Cruz groups like he used to in the past. Temporarily, the three brothers has forgotten about the existence of the Dela Cruz and had focused on Andy and his sibling instead. Late in the afternoon that day, Neil and Fred had arrived with Ella tagging along with her father, Fred. Ella is literally a stay at home lady since she as well has no job to call her own and has been re

    Mrs. Williams left the hospital, her heart heavy with the weight of the conversation she had just endured with the doctor —she couldn't help but wondered how Dr. Slavin had rejected her without putting her request into consideration; it really hurts, she must confess. As she drove to The Williams Corporation, her mind raced with worry for her son, Alex. She knew she couldn't keep the news from him forever, and she dreaded the pain it would cause him. But she also knew that she had to be the one to tell him even though she feared the outcome of it.Arriving at The Williams Corporation, Mrs. Williams hurriedly made her way to the receptionist's desk as though she's trying to avoid a greater force. "Is Alex in his office?" She asked, trying to keep her voice steady.

    That morning before Alex left for work, Rosy was a little down with mild fever —she supposed. Alex had come downstairs to have his usual breakfast before going to work but was surprised not to see Rosy in sight, nor the breakfast itself. He figured out something was wrong and it's only natural for him to be worried, after all, she's still his wife under law. He looked for her and was surprised to see her in the guest room, laying down with a faint smile on her face.At first, when he did not see her, he had thought she had left him, quitting the marriage abruptly —this was the same way Lisa left him as well without any words or traces. He wondered what Rosy might have found out to do such as well —maybe his growing feelings for Lisa? "Hey..." Alex called with a glint of worry in his voice as he strode towards her, his face was wearing a slight frown. "I've searched everywhere for you. What's wrong, uh? Are you feeling sick, maybe?""Uh, I think so, Alex." She replied in a faint voic

    "What did you just say?" Alex find himself stuttering, as he couldn't bring himself to believe what Rosy had said. Maybe he's the one hearing wrong or Rosy had decide to pull a prank on him.‘It must be a prank...’ Alex breathed in slowly and deeply, trying to cajole himself with false word. ‘Or perhaps, I'm the one who did not catch her words correctly.’ How could she be pregnant at this time of all time? How did it happen?Rosy raised her left brow as the smile suddenly left her face and her eyes too, unable to pinpoint Alex's reaction towards the news she has been dying to tell him, and as well was expecting a positive attitude from him —at least.Alex decide to pick his words carefully, so as not to hurt Rosy with it as well as himself. "Can you slowly repeat what you said?" He asked her, his voice calm but firm. "You know, what you said a few moment ago, please?"Alex's question had stirred a little hope inside Rosy. ‘Maybe he's too excited to digest the news at once.’ She though

    As she sat, deep in thought, a sudden buzz broke her concentration. A notification appeared on her phone, with a message from her former fiancé, David."Why is he sending me a message out of the blue?" She muttered within herself as she unlocked her phone to read the message, feeling a mixture of anxiety and curiosity. She read the message, and her breath caught in her throat.Sarah stared at the message sent to her, her curiosity suddenly turned into a mixture of anger and sadness. It reads, 'I can't believe you are such a gold digger, Sarah! This was your plan all along? To ditch me, leave me in disgrace at the altar, and go after the president because he's loaded, isn't he?'Sarah gritted her teeth in fury as she read the message further. 'You are such a cheap slut, but I promise you, Sarah, that I won't go down without a fight! Be on your best guard because tonight, I'm giving you the biggest surprise of your life...!'David's words cut through her like a knife, the fact that he go

    Sarah, a name now acknowledged and recognized in the journal of the nation's political context, stood as the center of an exceptional sight, surrounded by glaring lights, loud and noisy voices, and examining eyes from the press, reflecting a model of the public.Amidst the lights and noisy surroundings, the press that managed to get close to her probed her with questions, their eyes gleaming with excitement. She was their new prey - the fact that she was the first Lady made things more interesting for them.For the first time since her marriage with the president, she had only stepped out for a moment to look around and probably get used to her new environment but things did not turn out as she thought would be.As though the press was keeping a close watch on her and monitoring her movement - maybe someone had tipped them off her whereabouts, they hovered around her like flies, trapping her down in the same spot.Microphones and other instruments used by the press were pointed in her

    As Sarah stood at the altar to exchange marital vows with the president, she felt a sense of calm wash over her. It was as if time had slowed down, and everything around her was moving in slow motion.The guests, the priest, the groom - they all seemed to be moving at a fraction of the speed she was used to. Everything felt surreal as if she was in a dream. But she knew this was real. This was her wedding day - another wedding she was holding in that same week she ditched the first one.The priest's words drifted through the air as if they were carried by the wind. "Do you, Sarah, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until death do you part?"As the words of the vow hung in the air, Sarah felt her heart skip a beat. It was like everything had stopped, and it was just her and the president in the world. She looked into his eyes, a

    Sarah had never seen him before which made her curiosity piqued, her gaze on the parcel he stretched out to her. Though she was tempted to take the parcel from him, she still hesitated as though she was contemplating taking the parcel from him.His unusual warm smile spread wider, urging her to take it from him. Seeing how much she was hesitating, he squatted down to her height, opened her palms, and placed the parcel on them."For you..." He uttered, still wearing his unusual warm smile. His voice was calm but far from the regular manly voice Sarah had heard."What's in the parcel?" She asked, directing her gaze from the man to the parcel in her palms before raising her gaze to meet the man's. "-and why are you giving it to me?""I can read the curiosity in your eyes, lady." He responded quietly, maintaining his calm tone. "Why don't you feed your curiosity by checking it out yourself?"Sarah said nothing in reply and did as the man had suggested. She opened the parcel and couldn't be

    Alone on the serene and deserted beach, Sarah sat on the sandy shore, the waves crashing against the beach as if echoing her inner turmoil. The sunset on the horizon in its warm hue of orange failed to bring comfort to the despair that hung over her like a chute.Her eyes were red and swollen, heavy with the weight of sorrow and betrayal. Tears painted her face, the hurt as vast as the sea itself and heavy as a lead. Yet underneath the sorrow was an underlying sense of trepidation - a thought that wasn't born out of hope but out of fear of continuing to live.Sarah ought to be grateful that she found out about them before the knot was tied between herself and David - how worse would it be if things started to unfold after her wedding?Sarah stood up abruptly and walked closer to the beach, shutting other thoughts off her head and mind. She stared intensely into the raging waves of the waster as thoughts of suicide attempts swirled in her mind, tempting her to end the painful game she f

    Gerald was pushed aggressively back into the prison, and the warder locked the gate immediately, throwing the keys into his pocket. Gerald hissed in pain as he forcefully hit his knee on the cold floor, bruising it in the process.“I wonder how long you are going to last here with the nonchalant attitude you are putting on, man!” The warder scowled disapprovingly at him, resting lazily on the gaze. “You won't even last three months here —you will be lucky if you do.”Gerald's eyes widened in shock. Three months…? That's a whole lot of time to be detained in a prison, how is he supposed to cope in this kind of surrounding for that long period of time without even knowing his offense? The thought of spending three months locked up in a cell was terrifying as it made his stomach dropped.It was hard to imagine being stuck in such a small space for so long, with nothing to do and no one to talk to. Gerald tried to think of ways to pass the time, but his mind kept returning to the same thou

    Gerald's eyes blazed in fury as he banged his hands dangerously on the table, separating them from each other. “I rather remain in this hole than be at your mercy or listen to your petty orders! You can't make me do your bidding!” He growled at her.“Tsk, tsk!” Aunt Elsie twitched her nose in disappointment, unmoved by his rage or threats. “Then what would happen to Lisa? I told you; that your reaction and obedience will determine Lisa's fate, didn't I?”“What are you going to do to Lisa?” Gerald demanded, his heart beating against his rib cage. He couldn't bear the thought of anything happening to her. “Tell me what you want, and I'll do it. Just don't hurt her.”Aunt Elsie's lips stretched into a thin smile, she was loving the desperation in Gerald's eyes —he's the perfect pawn in the game. “I'm glad to see that you're willing to cooperate.” She said, satisfaction evident in her tone. “You're a smart man, Gerald, I think we can work well together.”Gerald hated the way she was talkin

    Aunt Elsie smiled broadly, she was right about him. Only someone like him will be needed —he had managed to read her perfectly without getting close to her. She was impressed, and that will only make her want him more.“I don't bargain, yeah…" She uttered, admitting to his words. “—but I'm ready to do so, if it'll please you.”“What do you mean by that?” he asked, his curiosity piqued. “Why would you change your usual tactics just to please me? What do you want from me?”Aunt Elsie's smile widened, she was glad he didn't bite her head off this time —instead, she loved the curiosity in his eyes; that was what she wanted from him anyway, not otherwise.“I've found myself smitten with you, Gerald.” She replied, her voice taking a different turn. “And I would do anything to get what I want from you —I'm not afraid of bargaining this time because I know what I want, and I want it badly.”Gerald was no in for her twist and turns, he wanted her to say whatever thing she's got for him and let
