Heart's Desire CHAPTER 38
"Who's Carlson?" I paused in my steps upon hearing his question.Does this mean he doesn't know we have a child? For Pete's sake, where has he been, not knowing about us?No one spoke, so I decided to walk my feet towards the back of the house to leave.Upon entering, I quickly went upstairs and bumped into Cherry, whom I immediately asked to come down.But before I could turn around to leave, Dawzon entered the room with darkened eyes.He was about to speak when he saw the child peacefully sleeping in the crib. He approached and observed for a few minutes."Who's the father?"I was taken aback by his question. I had to gather my thoughts before speaking."He is your--son." I quickly lowered my gaze as he suddenly faced me and pulled my hand out of the room.He took me to his office and paced in front of me."My son?" He said firmly, his voice low, as if digging into my soul."Yes, he's your son.." I said firmly."How did we have a child when you weren't pregnant when I left?" His eye
Heart's Desire CHAPTER 39
Dawzon's POV"I do not want to love her when it's easy, I want to love her when she's difficult." -- Piere Jenty.As the abundant water flowed down the faucet, I couldn't help but clench my fists, the rushing cold seemed to melt the warmth I had felt earlier.It's too late to regret what I'm doing, so I stopped. I don't want to hurt her further. I can't, but the mark I left will surely stain our relationship.I couldn't stop myself, so I punched the wall, feeling no pain as the blood flowed from my hand.. I chose to spend some time inside before deciding to go out.As much as possible, I didn't want to look at her, but I couldn't do it. So I stopped in front of her, peacefully sleeping, the pain of what I did still evident on her face and tears still glistening in her eyes..I gently wiped it away, so she wouldn't wake up."You're still the most beautiful girl I've known, you grew up like a fearless one, infrangible, tough and sturdy and I admire you for being brave for taking care of
Heart's Desire CHAPTER 40
"The scene at the Coliseum was like a scene from a pin drop, especially when Rexon and the whole band came out to start their first song.The entire crowd fell silent as the song kicked in. I found myself singing along while others held up LED lights in the air.I sang with full force even though Dawzon was standing next to me, just wearing a polo shirt.The spotlight lit up after the first song, making the atmosphere even more lively.."Hello!" He shouted loudly into the mic."Hi!" We almost simultaneously replied.."Are you enjoying yourselves?" He asked."Yes!" I shouted with both hands in the air.He took a step back to signal Jeff, another guitarist, to start playing again.As he strummed the guitar once more, everyone fell silent again, I felt Dawzon's hand on my shoulder as his sibling sang.I didn't pay attention to that because I was carried away singing along with him.. I felt like he was taking me somewhere with his singing..Especially when the band went acoustic, he held

"I felt the tension between the two after he said that.Dawzon kept his gaze fixed on him. I also couldn't escape the tension in his jaw as he faced him."So it's nice seeing you back together, huh?" Drei said, glancing at me.Instead of responding, Dawzon emptied the contents of his glass."Drei, it's better not to talk about it right now." I restrained him."Why? I've done nothing." He signaled the passing waiter who brought him a wine glass, while Dawzon also grabbed another glass filled with wine."We're okay." I whispered to him."What? I can't hear you." He chuckled, leaning closer to me.I quickly avoided him after that. I didn't even glance to see Dawzon's reaction to what he did to me.I quickly took the wine glass and took a sip."It's been a year, I thought you were already separated?" He boldly said, which made me bow my head even more."It's our personal problem, just enjoy your drink." He raised his glass in front of him before drinking again. It's funny because the one
Heart's Desire CHAPTER 1
The air crackled with anticipation. The crowd, a sea of excited faces, surged forward, their eyes glued to the entrance of the school. It was Rexon Del'torre, the charismatic vocalist of the legendary band Logistic, who was about to grace us with his presence. I, along with my friend Terry, were caught in the tide of excitement, pushing our way through the throng. "Ouch, can you slow down a bit?!" Terry complained, struggling to keep up with my frantic pace. "All you do is complain, just keep up!" I retorted, craning my neck to get a glimpse of the approaching star. "Excuse me! Excuse me!" I called out, squeezing through the girls who were practically climbing over each other to get a better view. The rumor mill had been churning for weeks - Logistic was rumored to be enrolling at our school for the upcoming year. The thought of having Rexon Del'torre as a classmate sent shivers of excitement down my spine. Finally, I managed to secure a spot in the front row. "Yes! This is perfec
Heart's Desire CHAPTER 2
CHAPTER 2 I woke up to the blaring sound of my alarm clock on the bedside table, groggily hitting the snooze button before pulling the blanket over me. The chill in the air made it tempting to stay in bed a little longer. Just as I was dozing off, my phone rang loudly, jolting me awake. Terry's frantic voice pierced through the line, "Where the hell are you, Lara?!" It felt like she wanted to yell through the screen. "Lara, you're late again!" I hurriedly got up and headed to the bathroom, assuring Terry that I was on my way as I pretended to be driving. I cut the call short, quickly brushing my teeth, and was about to rush out when Mom called out, "Lara belle!" I rolled my eyes playfully, greeted her with a hug and a kiss, and explained that I was running late for school. I hopped into my car, started it quickly, and within less than ten minutes, I was in front of the school. "Gotcha!" I muttered, and the guard opened the gate for me. "Good morning, ma'am!" he greeted me. I ju

CHAPTER 3 Feeling annoyed, I slurped on the contents of the Slurpee I bought at 7/11 outside the campus while gazing at the vast field of Saint Carmen University this afternoon. "Go, Alex! You got this!" Terry shouted beside me, almost fainting from excitement as she watched the soccer game. I finished it off, straightened up, and sat back, gazing into the distance. "Oh!" I almost fell off my seat at her loud shout. "Terry, seriously, you startle me!" I irritably remarked. "Sorry, friend, Alex tripped. I hope he's okay," she said, mimicking her line. My God, after years of friendship, I knew this line by heart whenever we watched soccer practice at the university. She scowled at me before looking back at the field. I sighed heavily before returning to daydreaming, waiting for the boring game to end... If she weren't my best friend, I would've left her and gone home by now. "Yay! Alex, my love, you're amazing!" I covered my ears as her scream felt like it could sha
Heart's Desire CHAPTER 4
CHAPTER 4 As I walked through the corridor towards our building this morning, I noticed a group of guys hanging out along the way. Even from a distance, my attention was immediately drawn to the familiar figure among them. I observed as one of the guys nudged the person beside him, causing them to turn towards me, our eyes meeting. My heart pounded loudly as the scene with Karen in the utility room from yesterday suddenly replayed in my mind. Damn it! I averted my gaze and walked past them without acknowledging their presence. "Lara!" a guy I didn't recognize called out to me. I paused briefly as I saw him approaching me. "Uh, Lara—this is for you." He scratched his head while handing me a piece of paper. Reluctantly, I took it and continued walking towards my room. It wasn't new for me to receive love letters from suitors. However, none of them caught my interest. It's not that I'm picky, but none of them possessed what I was looking for in a man. Because at the mome

Two years later...I push the cart quietly as I browse through the shelves where the canned goods are, when my phone rings."Um..hello?""We're fine, we're just grocery shopping with Carl." I scratch my head as I talk on the phone."Stop being paranoid, Rex, it doesn't suit you." I roll my eyes as I push the cart, with my two-year-old son sitting in it."Alright, bye!" I quickly bid farewell before turning my eyeballs around before ending the call.I peek at my son, busy with the bottle of milk in his hand, looking up at me.I can't help but smile sweetly at him because he perfectly captures the image of his father.I gave birth to Carlson by cesarean section, as my eye slits didn't want to open wide enough, so they had to cut me open, even though I could have endured it, but Rexon decided to have me undergo a C-section to avoid any problems and to prevent me from further difficulty. So in the end, I couldn't do anything about it."Mom--" he says to me, handing me the bottle of milk.
Heart's Desire CHAPTER 36
"What the hell is happening here?" I spoke loudly to everyone."Please, Mrs. Del'torre, lower your voice," the Manager restrained me, looking at Dawzon and then at the others present.I took a deep breath before deciding to sit on the right side of Dawzon."We're not married," I said firmly to him, but my back quickly hit the office chair as whispers spread among the seated individuals."Please, Lara, don't bring our personal problems here." He rested both his elbows on the table and clasped his hands.I bit my lip, feeling embarrassed by my actions."So let's start," he said to recover.As the Sun Real representative spoke in the middle, I couldn't help but glance at Dawzon, who seemed to be playing with his swivel chair, pen on his lips.I glared at him sharply, but it seemed like he wasn't listening, instead, he was looking at me as if he was enjoying the situation.I quickly averted my gaze from him, feeling his piercing stare."Mrs. Del'torre." I snapped back to reality upon hear

"Have some water first," he handed me a glass of cold water."What happened? I'm even getting high blood pressure because of you!" Japs said to me. I had been crying non-stop since I arrived at his condo unit."Does your Mommy know about this?" He moved closer to me and placed his hand on my forehead.I shook my head repeatedly, not wanting to add to his pain when he finds out about Dawzon and me."You should talk about this first, you can't just leave like that," he rubbed my back.I just shook my head at him. We had nothing more to talk about because it was over between us, and we weren't really married."If I see that Isabelle, she'll be sorry!" He said through gritted teeth."Are you sure your marriage is fake?" I raised my eyes to him, feeling confused."Why don't you let him explain first, maybe he has a reason or what so ever," he suggested."I don't know, all I want now is to get away from him," I said firmly."What if you get pregnant?" I saw the concern on his face as I look
Heart's Desire CHAPTER 34
Sunday morning, I woke up feeling light. I took a shower and dressed in a simple loose shirt and shorts.I went downstairs to cook breakfast, although I only knew how to cook eggs and ham, sometimes just instant noodles. But I didn't hear any complaints from him.After toasting the loaf bread, I smiled as I laid it on the table. I even clapped my hands because I cooked everything nicely.I started cleaning the house, while Dawzon hadn't come down yet, so I had time to clean.I was sweating while wiping the figurines when I heard the doorbell.Out of curiosity, I immediately went out to check."Hi!" It greeted me cheerfully as it peeked through the gate railings.I paused for a moment to think. My feet automatically stepped closer to the gate to open it for him."Good morning, is Zon there?" It greeted me with a wide smile."Uh, yes, but he's still asleep," Did I sound unfriendly? It suddenly hesitated at my response.After recovering, he also visited my outfit and the sweat on my fore
Heart's Desire CHAPTER 33
"I woke up to the weight of his legs draped over me. Even his arm around my waist remained motionless."Oh my!" I attempted to sit up abruptly, but I was forced back down by his tight embrace."Hmm." That's all I heard from him as he nuzzled into my neck. I found myself inhaling deeply in response to the effect it had on me.I glanced at the alarm clock on the side table, it was past six o'clock."Dawzon, we're going to be late for school," I whispered to him, but I didn't hear any response from him."Dawzon!" I even tapped his arm, but he just snored again.So I gently removed his legs draped over mine and my stomach, slowly making my way to the bathroom to shower.The feeling of the cold water flowing over my body was refreshing. I couldn't help but smile when I remembered what happened last night. I wasn't too drunk, so everything was still clear to me, even the last words he said."I was startled when I remembered those words. I had no right to clarify that with him. Besides, I kn
