"Mommy you're going with us tomorrow, right?" Jase asked Gwyn again as he draws on his book. I peeked at my son's ipad to see Gwyn's face. She's as beautiful as ever.
"Yes baby, how many times have you asked me that already? You silly kid!" I can't help but to chuckle as I chop the vegetables for our dinner. Jase quickly glanced at me and grinned.
"I'm just reminding you mommy in case you forget." I shook my head. Jase just reminded Gwyn for the third time in fifteen minutes since they started talking.
He was actually referring to her school activity. Since it's family day, parents are requested to attend the said event with their child at school. Jase has been talking about it since he learned that Gwyn and I are both going. I refuse to be absent on his first family day.
They talked for an hour. I love hearing their voice and their funny conversations, especial

Kalex’s POV"What's up?" Demitri asked as he sits in front of me. I asked him if he could come because I needed someone to talk to. I need someone who could knock some sense out of me. "Where's Jase?""Upstairs. Sleeping." I replied before I took a sip from the glass of whiskey in my hand. I know he's waiting for me to start talking but I fucking don't know where to fucking start."It's about Gwyneth, isn't it?" He asked when I didn't say anything. My chest tightened by the mere sound of her name. I miss her. I miss calling out her name and how she smiles at me in the morning."She's ... she's leaving tomorrow." I said in a low voice as I remember what she said five days ago. I don't even know how long she'll be gone. I was afraid to ask.My mind went crazy by just the thought of her leaving with that fucker and all I ever said to her was that she doesn't need to worry ...

Gwyneth’s POVI woke up with the clamorous knocking on my door. I looked at my clock; it's already 11 in the evening. Who would bother to visit me at this time? I don’t even know why I was on my out to see me at this hour when in fact I still had to sleep because my flight will be early tomorrow at five in the morning. I was still yawning while rubbing my eyes as I walk to the door."Gwyn! Gwyneth! Are you there?!" My yawning stopped and my eyes widened when I heard Kalex's loud voice. I immediately ran towards the door thinking that something might have happened to Jase."Kalex?" he was sweating and gasping as he put his hands on his knees to support himself. He's wearing his usual sleeping clothes, his jersey short and a white cotton shirt. "What are you doing here? Why are you gasping?""I ... took ... the ... stairs." He said as his chest is heaving from the gasps. It took me a second

Gwyneth’s POV"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Ninoy Aquino International Airport. Local time is ten past three in the afternoon and the temperature is 25 degrees Celsius ..."I can't help but to feel all the excitement as the crew announced that our plane landed. I've been peeking out the window for a while now because I really want to set foot in the Philippines again. It has only been six months, but it feels like forever since the day I've been here. I was excited to see Jase and Kalex. We video called almost every night and they also went to see me at Christmas. They stayed there for the whole holidays but it's not enough to compensate my longing for the two.The hard battle of homesickness!"Have a nice stay ma’am!" one of the crew greeted me before I went down on the plane. I gave her a smile.When I got off the plane, I went straight to a bus that the staff p

Gwyneth’s POV“Are you really sure you’re not going to attend the party at Denver’s house?” Zaina asked me as we walk down the corridor.We just ended our class sooner than I expected. Our professor got a call from our school administrator, telling him that there will be an emergency meeting together with other faculties, the reason why he dismissed us earlier.“I'm gonna be busy tonight, you know doing usual stuffs and all.” I repliedI don’t have much time to have fun, besides, I have an appointment later with one of my client.“But this is the first time Denver got a ball to invite us. It will be put to waste if you’re not gonna come.” She tugged the hem of my top, pouting her lips on the process whilst gazing up at me with those puppy dog eyes. “Accompany me later, please.”“I can't .”“Even just for an hour?&rdqu

Gwyneth’s POV“I'll be your girlfriend from 6am up to 5pm only. If the time is up and you're still in need of my service, you had to pay for my overtime. Aside from that, you need to inform me firsthand if you have events to attend and need me to escort you there so I can prepare ahead of time." I clarified things up with Kalex before giving him the contract he had to sign.A goofy smile crept into his picture perfect face as he reaches for the documents I was holding up for him. “Is this really necessary?" he asked, pertaining to the contract.We are currently here in my own apartment, discussing the do's and don’ts when I'm gonna be his contract girlfriend.I opened my bag, rummaging for my pen and handed it to him when I saw it. "Of course it is! This is not some silly jokes you could just crack, Kalex. This is my job, better be sure before diving in." I replied to him curtly."What if the con

Gwyneth’s POV"Are your parents in here already?" I immediately asked Sean when he greeted me first thing, the time I stepped into the restaurant."Yeah, they just got here not long ago." he replied so I just step my pace up to somewhat regain my composure before meeting his parents."I'm sorry for making them wait. Something came up that's why I didn't make it on time." I reasoned out while we're heading to the VIP room of the resto."It's okay."Together, we entered the room filled with dim lights and as I wander my eyes around, my very own eyes landed on an elderly couple I assume Sean's parents. They were now sitting in a luxurious seat and seemed to be waiting for our arrival."Hello, good evening." I greeted politely.Sean's mom offered a smile making me feel a bit at ease. “Have a seat, sweetie." Motioning to the vacant seat near me."Thank you." I muttered when Sean pulled out a chair for me

Gwyneth’s POVThe entire room was filled with a deafening silence that got me fidget in my seat even more. It's as if they are waiting for me to explain the whole thing to them. What am I getting myself into?I silently calm myself down before standing up. "If you don't mind, let me excuse both of us for a moment. We're just gonna talk and sort things out first. It's seems like Kalex over here, is having a misconception. We'll explain everything when we get back, I'm sorry. "I said goodbye to them before turning my gaze to Kalex." Follow me.“ Gesturing for him to come with me.I sashayed on my way out of the room with Kalex hot on my tail. When were out of their sight and into a solace corridor, I whipped my head towards the asshole who just ruined the whole thing."What the hell was that for? Are you out of your mind, Kalex? You screwed us up! What are we gonna do now, huh?" I lashed out outrageously at him whilst tugging my

Gwyneth's POVA few minutes later, we're in his car and he's driving like a mad man, he's making me nervous as hell."Take me back to the resto this instant! I'm not happy with what you have done back there. Now take me back so I could atleast apologize in your stead." I am restraining myself not to rebuke him even more.He didn't seem unfazed at all instead he is more focused on finding a parking spot in the front lawn of an enormous house or more like a mansion.From here, I could clearly see the whole party design at the entrance gate. Party music blasting like there's no tommorow and I could say that everybody is having fun in there, dancing and grinding each other's body like a wild animal."Sean is going to be mad at me if I didn't make it in there." I insisted.He unbuckled his seatbelt before turning sideways. "Come on, the party started earlier than I thought." He's not even paying attention to my consta

Gwyneth’s POV"Why are you so quiet?" Quir asked me as we ride the elevator. I was on my way down earlier when I ran into him and he asked me to have lunch with him."Jase is with Kalex now and I don't have anything to do because I've already made all the proposals for my next event. I just need to submit." I sighed.This has always been my problem ever since Kalex and I had an agreement. When Jase isn't by my side I can't do anything so I usually just read a book until I fall asleep. Everything's just boring whenever Jase's not at home.Quir and I decided to eat outside the company. Sometimes the food is also boring because the menu is almost always the same."So I was thinking, how about we go out tonight?" He asked as we eat at one of our favorite place near the hotel. It's delicious here in case there's majesty so we only eat here when new wages.

Gwyneth’s POV"Excellent job, Gwyn." I beamed at as he opened his arms and I ran towards him to hug him. He picked me up and turned me around."I did it!" I shouted at him and we were both laughing. "The senator loved the theme for the party ... he loved everything."They even popped a confetti for me. One of our officemates opened a bottle of wine to celebrate and gave me one. "Cheers to Gwyneth!"After months of preparing one of the biggest events of the year, I'm just so glad I finished the job. Who would have thought that I would host a politician's birthday party?I've been the event manager of big business men in the country but the aura is still different when your clients are influential in the Philippines. I met the president, the vice president, and even celebrities last night! That’s how big was the event that I organized and I'm happy to see the proud look

Gwyneth’s POV"Sorry you had to wait." Kalex said as he took the seat in front of me. I stared at him intently while calling the server to give him coffee.Short stubbles are starting to grow on his chin. There are bags under his eyes and his hair is too long. To some, I'm sure he looked fine, but I know him too well to see that he's not. That's not the Kalex I know. These past few days must've been hard for him.I was making it hard for him."What do you want to talk about?" He asked after his coffee was served in front of him. His eyes made its way to mine, but then he immediately looked away. To this day he still can’t look at me."I'll go straight to the point." He nodded as he mixed his coffee. "I heard you ... at the bar. I heard what you said to Demitri." That made him look at me.His eyes are full of guilt that confirmed that everything I

Gwyneth’s POV"Quir?" He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that I'm okay."You scared me back there." He said and shook his head."I'm sorry. She just came out of nowhere." Said a man approaching us. He seems to be the driver of the car. He helped us stand up. "I really didn't see you." The man approached me. "Are you hurt? Should I bring you two to the hospital?""No. We're fine." Quir replied with a smile and then they talked. He glanced at me before shaking hands with the driver who said goodbye."So, what are you doing here besides killing yourself?" He joked. I was embarrassed to close my eyes because of his question."I haven't seen it." Is this man like everyone who sees me like this? I looked up at him when he chuckled. Since Quir is much taller than me he put his hands on top of my head and beamed at me."Let's get some
Emotionless Attachment Two Hundred and Forty Three
Gwyneth’s POVI walked into the building and went straight to Kalex's office. I can sense all those stares from the people here. I know others here know me because I was once Kalex’s high school friend. Maybe that’s also the reason why some of them were staring at me.I just ignored them because I have nothing to do with them anyway. I came here because of Kalex and they weren’t my goal. I also hate people looking at me, as if spotlight was pointing at me as of this moment. It looks like I’ll be their topic once I turned my back at them. These dumb as* has really nothing to do instead of focusing on their work. Tch.While walking to Kalex’s office I came across a kid chasing a ball. He was running and not looking to where he's going so I tried to avoid but he still collided with me, causing him to fall to the floor. Awts. His back must be hurt.“A
