2021-10-18 01:47:36Onika's pov...
I don't know since how long I am curled up in this corner and staring at the ceiling.
After his ultimatum, Agustin went out of the mansion in a haste and hadn't returned back yet. The way he looked when he left the room, I am afraid he will do something reckless.
Everything is repeating in my head again and again.
I feel hot raging anger built within me after his confession..... but there is also a little part of me that can't help but feel pity for him. I can't possibly feel pity for him after what he did.....but I do. Agustin's broken face just keep on flashing infront of my eyes, make me overcome with remorse.
Why don't you understand Agustin the Onika you loved is long gone with the Agustin I loved. We can't live with each other without getting hurt. We can't live happily together ever again. What you are imagining in your head for our life to be are just

Onika's POV....."Have you lost your fucking mind?!" I shouted at him incredulously.He just rolled his eyes at me and said."let me first explain how this works, before you jump at any conclusion."Then he looked thoughtfully at me before saying"I always used to think how you and Agustin get alone seeing nothing in common between you two but there there finally I found something, you both are too impatient and impulsive for your own good." He said mockingly.Say what! " I and Agustin have nothing in common and we so not get along, so only I am sitting here with you and reviewing my escape routes. So don't you ever I mean ever compare me with Agustin." I said through gritted teeth and glared at him, hard.His lips were twitching as in controlling himself not to throw into a fit of laughter but nonetheless he raised his hands in surrender."Now can you explain

Onika's pov.I put Alex to bed and wrapped a comforter around him and kissed him gently on the forehead.After that I started pacing around the room in anxiety. Agustin is not back yet. It's already past mid night. I hope everything is fine. Did he do something reckless? Is he okay?Where is he?When will he be back?I just hope he had not hurt himself or anyone for that matter.What was adding to my anxiety was the lethal decision I took today. I don't know how I am going to act on it. It feels so wrong deep down in my heart but at the same time I do realise I can't wait for a lifetime for Agustin to realise his mistake. If he had not realised it yet probably he is never going to realise it.I just hope he doesn't see right through my act because if he does.....then god help me, even thinking about it make me tremble with fear.&n

Onika's pov.... "You going to office, right? Can you drop me as well? Am getting late and my boss is not a big fan of late comers." I asked him in a steady voice, proud of myself that I didn't stutter.Well, I practiced that line for like fifty times.But Instead of answering he just started looking around incredulously. Then pinched himself. Uh-oh, hence proved he has gone mad.Tick, tick, tick....Why isn't he answering?"So it's a yes or no?" I asked impatiently and a bit anxiously."Ye...yes..I..I don't see why not." He said looking dumbstruck.So I immediately sat in the car before he change his mind. But instead of moving in he just stood rooted to his place as if paralyzed."Well you better start driving... I am telling you my boss is too rude and I don't want to be his victim for the day." I

Agustin's pov......Onika. Is. Behaving. STRANGE.Yesterday she was disgusted even at the site of me and today she is packing breakfast for me, are you kidding me? I thought she couldn't care less even if I starve infront of her very eyes. I just can't digest it.I have no idea what the hell is going on.I have never, never been this clueless in my entire fucking, damn, pathetic life. I didn't see this coming.What does this even means? Can it be....can it be because she has decided to give me a chance?Oh-My-God, had she finally decided to give me a chance?!Why else will she warm up to me, suddenly?Even the thought of it makes my heart do summersault with happiness. That is all I need. Just one chance, I will do everything in my power to make this work between us, I will give my hundred percent to it, I vowed

Onika's pov......It's already two days since I started executing my plan. Everything is fine till now, he is always calm, composed and cheerful, we drive to the office together, go home together, have dinner together.The only problem is, he is even trying to get close to Alex and I don't want him any where near him.What scares me the most is, they get alone very well. I never expected Agustin to be able to handle him this well. I am completely shocked at how he managed to do that. Maybe he is just a good actor, I thought. But I can't let him play with Alex's innocent heart, like he played with mine.I don't want Alex to get attached to him in any way. I am afraid he will start looking upto him as his father. It will break Alex's heart when I and Agustin will divorce.I need to do it fast, I can see Agustin has let his guards down around me,

Onika's pov.....All the heads were turned in our direction. Everything went silent. Deadly Silent. I think Agustin could even hear my heart beating furiously, because I was able to hear his ragged breathing, his eyes blood shoot, giving a glimpse of the upcoming storm.Agustin took few slow steps towards me to stop after coming dangerously close to me and said "You were not well to go with me but you are well enough to go out with him and in case you are wondering, No, I wasn't spying on you. I called Maria to tell her to give you medicine, if needed and take care of you that's when I came to know you went out of the mansion just after I did." He seethed, through gritted teeth, doing nothing to hide the anger in his voice.He gripped my wrist in a death grip and said" let's go." With finality in his voice, leaving no space for arguments, making my heart beat accelarate in unadult

Onika's pov.....I was holding tight on Jacob's shirt and crying for last half an hour, for what? I have no idea and he was just patting my back soothingly with one hand and his other hand was wrapped around my head plastering me to his chest. He didn't say anything, but just the way he was holding me spoke it all.I can feel a bubble of peace surrounding my heart after an eternity. I feel alive like I have some existence of my own. It was all bottled up in me for how long I don't even remember it feels so good to finally let everything out.Finally I gathered myself and pulled away from Jacob, his hands a bit reluctant to let go off me.I looked him into the eyes, purposely avoiding the view of his bruised jaw, once again because of me. Though that didn't stop the pang of guilt stabbing at me in the gut."I..I...am..sorry for landing both of us into this

Making peace with his demons.With the truth.The truth that tore his whole world apart, leaving him with a constant ache in his chest. Leaving him vulnerable. Leaving him dead inside.

Few Days Later....Agustin slowly got down on his knees and rubbed the top of his daughter's grave with his palm, ever so slowly as if touching something very fragile, as if brushing off some imaginary dust which might have found its way to his precious daughter's grave, almost in the same fashion as he would pat the head of his child if she were alive.He did it again, and again... and again, the motion becoming vigorous with every passing second, with every stroke, in a state of trance, he kept doing it till his hands were completely tired and he can't move it anymore. He stopped and looked at his palms it was a deep shade of red, he furrowed his brows as he realised he can't feel anything.Taking a shaky breath, he took out the orchids and placed it over the top of the cemetery, with the same frailness and tenderness as someone would show while dealing with their most loved possession, most precious poss

Onika's Pov....I looked at the divorce papers infront of me."I have signed the papers, your turn" Agustin said, his voice surprisingly void of any emotion.That was quick, Agustin was discharged from the hospital yesterday itself, though I was still unsure of what will be Agustin's decision, he could be so unpredictable that I won't ever bet on anything when it comes to Agustin, but somewhere I kind of knew this is what he will do, or at least I prayed, what I didn't expect was he will be this quick to take the decision.So this was the moment I have been waiting for, I am just a signature away and every thing will be over.I eyed the papers for too long as if expecting it to vanish in thin air."You can read the papers before signing," he said, mistaking my lack of response with with my lack of trust."Of course," I said.

Agustin's Pov...."Take legal action against me, I am ready to confess my crimes, Every. Single. One. Of. Them" I said sternly, even though I don't feel even legal actions will be enough, nothing is enough anymore, but that can be a start.Her lips parted in disbelief and she kept looking at me incredulously."Prove it Onika." I repeated again, I want this, I need this, desperately.She recovered from her shock.Her nose flared, breathing quickened, she closed her eyes forcefully, clenching her fist to her sides and before I can blink she slapped me, slapped me so hard my head turned to the other side."Are you trying to mock me?" She said."Is it still me who needs to prove things to you?" She sneered through gritted teeth, her eyes flushing with anger."How fucking dare you?" She clenched her teeth, I have very rare
Grieving Hearts Chapter-58
Onika's POV...I stared at Agustin's pale figure laying on the hospital bed, IV line attached to his wrist, his eyes closed, a small frown on his forehead. Even with his eyes closed he looked troubled. I took few calming breaths to remind myself that he is fine now. I have been sitting beside his bed since past five hours now, and he haven't moved a muscle.He is looking so lifeless at the moment....my heart cringed at the thought. I think this is why Jacob didn't take me with him, he already knew how it's going to be. Thank God Jacob reached there on time, if not for him... I don't even want to think about it.I have never wanted something so desperately as I want for him to open his hazel eyes and look back at me. I brought my hand to his cheek, tracing a large bruise at the side of his cheek with my finger ever so lightly. He didn't flinch, didn't moan in pain, nothing.I know I should have been t

Third Person....Agustin De Luca was driving the car through the eerie silent, dark night, not aware where he was going, but he did have one place in his mind. Tears streaming down his face, feeling guilt so profound that his whole body was shaking with silent sobs, for he had killed not only the soul of the women he loved, but also his own daughter.Sickening sounds reverberating in his head.'You were pregnant--''It was a girl--''The report said there were marks of abuse all over your body--''Please stop''--It said you can never get pregnant again due to complications.''Don't.... please don't.''Congratulations Agustin Deluca..I am everything you ever wanted me to be.I am ruined.'The car stopped with a screech infront of a boxing club

Jacob's POV...I groaned in frustration at the noise interrupting my sleep, and pulled my pillow over my ear to block the noise. It took me some good time to get oriented and realise, it is past midnight and it's my phone ringing.It's my phone ringing?!I immediately woke up, my eyes wide open now, the first thought coming to my mind, Onika.I looked at the screen, it was Onika indeed, at this time of the night? My heart got caught in my throat, as different types of unpleasant thoughts started coming to my mind.I immediately picked the call."He--hello Ja--Jacob Ag--Agustin--" she started sobbing and her voice was completely hoarse as if she had cried her eyes out, I was not able to understand anything clearly."Agustin what Onika? please speak clearly I am not able to understand anything, did Agustin hurt you?"I clenched my fist tightly, waiting for her answer, holding my breath. I was already making my way towards m

Onika's POV...I came back home and directly went to check on Alex. After making sure he was sleeping peacefully, I made my way towards my room.My head hurts, my heart hurts, Jacob's face keeps flashing infront of me, his pained express, his troubled eyes, like had went through a series of endless torture.....all because of me. I can't wash away the guilt that is painfully squeezing my heart.Jacob went through all that pain, why didn't he ever tell me anything before?He went through hell, what for, so that Agustin stays happy. Huh.The irony of the situation suddenly hit me like a hammer, Can I even blame Jacob? Isn't that what I did as well, and the worst part is Agustin can still make me feel bad for him, like he is also a victim in all this, may be he is, as much as I would love to blame everything on Agustin somewhere I know he is hurt as well, one can't expect his

Agustin's POV.....It's been two hour since I told Kane to investigate into the matter, no call nothing, what is taking him so long?I was restlessly pacing around my room, any bit of sound had me running for my phone, my heart was about to come out of my rid cage.I eyed Onika's file, suspiciously. Maybe she might have mentioned something in her later entries. I took the file and opened it with shaky hands...........................................................# Day 30You remember Agustin once you looked right into my eyes and asked me, 'Was your love not enough for me that I betrayed you the first chance I got?'One beat, two beat, three beat and I don't know how many beats passed and I just kept staring at you, letting it sink into my head what you ju
