“Kate! Wake up! We need to meet Mr. Herrera and his son at the newly opened restaurant in town...” Dad pounded on my door.
I slowly opened my eyes, feeling sleepy and tired at the same time. We had just arrived the other day and yesterday, Mr. Herrera organized a welcome party for us. And now... I don’t know when will I ever get a good sleep again.
“Darren will be there!” Dad shouted from the other side of the door.
I instantly sat down as I heard his name. I badly wanted to see him again. And also, if ever I got a chance, I’ll try to kiss him to test my own capabilities.
“I’ll be downstairs in twenty minutes.”
“Sure. Your Mom is already waiting for you to eat breakfast.”
“Alright, Dad...”
I heard the fading sound of his footsteps, indi

KATE’s P.O.V. Five days had passed. I didn’t see Darren nor Mr. Herrera for Dad said that we shouldn’t get so worried about our wedding. They wanted it to be perfect so they are organizing it with the help of a highly paid organizer. Mom and I savour those past few days watching Netflix and any other video stuffs on YouTube. We also went shopping, but as I realized that I already got the rest and sleep that I wanted, I’m started to feel bored. Suddenly, I wanted to see Darren.“Where are you going?” Mom asked when she saw me wearing a nice outfit.“Uhm... I’m going to meet Dad,” I lied.“What? Your Dad has a client meeting for lunch.”“Oh...” I bit my lower lip, feeling guilty for lying to my Mom.“Just tell me, Kate. Where exactly are you going?”“Fine, fine.&rdquo

KATE’s P.O.V.“I couldn’t understand it! It was Darrel that told me about this arranged marriage. And now his son has a wife?” I looked down, before nodding. Mom sat beside me and caressed my back, only making me feel worst.“I told you, didn’t I?” Mom glared at Dad. “This marriage wouldn’t bring any good to our family specially to Kate...”“I don’t need your drama, Katheryn. What I wanted to know is why did that happened!”“Oh, so that’s what you really care about right now, Armando?” Mom stood up, looking mad at Dad. “What about your daughter?! Don’t you care about her feelings?!” I sighed, feeling the guilt for I am the reason why my Mom and Dad are fighting right now. I wanted to throw a tantrums and cry in front of them, remembering the scenario when I first saw m

KATE’s P.O.V.“Why haven’t you tell me your name before? You know, I waited for you at the rooftop of the tallest building in our school right after our graduation ceremony but you didn’t come. Tell me, did I do something wrong to you, Kate?” I looked away, afraid to be trapped by his intense stares. I decided to lie and don’t tell him the truth. Since now that I finally realized that Claire and Elijah have some kind of relationship with each other like what we have before. Looks like they are friends too.“No, you haven’t done anything wrong. My Mom just wanted to celebrate my graduation day so we leave in the school earlier than I expected.”“You forgot about me just like that?” he asked, then pouted.“Uhm... Nope. I haven’t forgot you, Elij...”“Then why aren’t you answering my calls?”

KATE’s P.O.V. It’s been a week and today, I have nothing to do so I decided to pay a visit to my ex-bestfriend’s workplace. Elijah told me where they working, so now I know where and when the perfect time to bother her. I just wanted to know if Darren and Claire are indeed married or not. In the back of my mind, I knew that something is wrong. How can they be married that fast? And even so, why did Mr. Herrera arranged our supposed to be marriage if Darren have a lover already? There’s so many unanswered questions that I wanted a conclusion. That’s why I’m doing this. I drove towards the nearest school, and right now I don’t care what Elijah will say about me anymore. I just wanted to know the truth. As soon as I arrived, I saw him walking in the open ground, holding some folders and stuffs. I ignored him, because I don&rsquo

KATE’s P.O.V.“So, where should we go?” I asked curiously right after all of us are finally inside of the car.“I’ll bring my wife to a special place,” Darren stated. He reached and held Claire’s left hand. His other hand is still focus on the wheel. I wanted to take his hands off of Claire’s but I couldn’t do it. I know it will probably just caused some complicated things that will only get me farther away from the truth later on.“Where are we going exactly, Darren?” Claire asked, but he didn’t answer. Darren just gave her a small kiss on the back of her hand. I rolled my eyes. That’s when the torture started. It felt like I was crumbling in pain for I wanted to stop this stupidity and just went home. But I can’t. I need to finished what I started.“It’s a secret... Though
Last Updated : 2021-10-28His Rectifying Graze CHAPTER 18: The Investigation
KATE’s P.O.V. I don’t know how many days it took me to find something suspicious about Claire and Darren. But waiting for apparently nothing bored me to death, I guess. It’s been more than a month since I last saw the both of them personally. Though I often see their faces on photos provided by Detective Suarez.“So, I want us to come all together at Darren’s engagement party. I wanted the both of you to show support to my bestfriend’s son,” Dad stated, before taking another bite to his breakfast. I tightly gripped on my spoon and fork. Why does he needs to say that in front of my face? And to Mr. Herrera, why does he even invited us right after what his son have done to me? Do I really deserve to be treated like this?“I won’t come out there,” Mom firmly stated.“Try me, Katheryn.” Dad glared at Mom, s
Last Updated : 2021-10-28His Rectifying Graze CHAPTER 19: Her Revelation
KATE’s P.O.V. Today is the day that I’ve been waiting for to come. The day that I could finally get my revenge. Mom is looking worried about me, thinking that I would cry once I saw Claire and Darren at the party later. I secretly laughed at that thought as she didn’t realize that I’ve got some plan to do later on.“Are you sure you wanted to do this?” she asked, looking worried again as she helps me fix my hair.“Of course, Mom. I can do anything. Just watch me later...” I stated, taking a deep breath.“What do you mean?” Her brows are almost touching because of confusion.“Nothing, Mom. Let’s just go. Dad is probably waiting for us downstairs. No one wants us to be late.”“Sure thing, sweetie.” We all meet downstairs before we get inside of our limousine. Mom and Dad isn
Last Updated : 2021-10-28His Rectifying Graze CHAPTER 20: Tipsy Moments
KATE’s P.O V. Maybe it’s been an hour or so since I started to wander around the streets. I felt tired, drunk, and hurt. My feet were already aching because of my shoes. My dress even got dirty because of all the running and stuffs. I decided to take a rest, not bothering if someone could see me out here. I sat on the cold ground, before I hugged my knees and cry. I didn’t know what to do. It only feels like yesterday when Claire and I were just watching horror movies over my house just to ease boredom. I sometimes miss those moments, knowing that could never happen again right after what I did tonight. I keep asking myself one question... And that is, am I a bad person? Can people blame me for being like this just because I got hurt in the past? I don’t know the answer, and I know that no one could answer me either.“Hey! Kate?!&r

I waited even though we’ve got a lot of doubts about ourselves... But in the end, we find it worth it. Kate and I... The two of us finally became an official couple. Today is the day that I have been waiting for. The day that I am going to ask her to marry me. And with the help of Darren and Claire, I know that everything will be alright.

# KATE’s P.O.V. Now that everything is going smooth and fine between me and Claire, I decided to mend the broken lines between me and Elijah as well so that I could finally have the peace of mind that I’ve always wanted to have ever since the beginning. I just hope that it was not too late for me to apologize to the one and only man that I truly love. It’s been three days since the night of Cloey’s birthday party, and so the next morning, I finally decided to come to his apartment, with my hands trembling out of too much nervousness. I can’t believe that I will be looking so dumb just like this in front of him... I never expected that this could happen, that I would be the one to hurt the person I love the most instead of the other way around, just like what usually happens before.

#KATE’s P.O.V. As we entered one fast food chain, the three of us, Claire, Cloey, and I, instantly search for a table before Claire decided that she should be the one to order in the counter. So I was left alone with Cloey, and I took the opportunity to talk to her and know more things about her parents relationship to Elijah. I know that Darren and Elijah are long time besties, but what I wanted to know is the relationship between Claire and my boyfriend. Call me a narrow minded person, but can you blame me? After all the things that I have been through... I just couldn’t trust anyone else anymore.“Hey, Cloey...” I trailed off, calling her name.“Yes, lady?” she asked me. I don’t want to take advantage of her innocence but I know to myself that I need to do this.“Your Mom and Elijah...
His Rectifying Graze CHAPTER 47: The Encounter
# KATE’s P.O.V. The next morning, nobody came to talk to me, nor bother to text me something... Or even a simple greeting. There is no one’s name registered on my phone, or anything. Maybe Elijah is indeed really mad at me. But why? I’m only trying to protect myself from being hurt once again. I took a deep breath, before deciding that I should probably go to some place that could make me happy... A place where I could temporary forget about everything, including all of our problems. I didn’t want to hurt Elijah that way, it’s just that I’m having a hard time to give my complete trust to someone for I know that it could ruin me once again. And so after preparing myself, I grabbed my purse as I decided to come to the mall and treat myself for apparently no reason at all.&nbs

KATE’s P.O.V.“A journal?” Elijah asked.“Yeah... I told you, you wouldn’t like it,” I said, looking at Cloey’s direction.“I do like it’s color, Aunt Kate. It matches the dress of my Barbie dolls that Uncle Elijah gave to me... But what is this?” she curiously asked.“Uhm... That was a journal, baby. Your personal diary... I mean, if you grow old someday, you will realize things... Things that you couldn’t ask to another person because you will be afraid or scared to make them think that you are weird or something... So if ever that you have some questions about yourself and you don’t know whom to ask it, you can write it down in here...”“Really? Will I be able to find the answer then?”“Maybe... As time passes by, if you read the first pages of this diary, you will finally be able to answer that question all by yourself. It’s

KATE’s P.O.V.“Tomorrow is Cloey’s birthday. Darren and Claire are inviting us to have a dinner with them.” I stopped for a moment, thinking about that invitation. Would I allow past to prevent me from leaving a normal and happy life? Of course not. I will try my best to beat that horrifying history of mine. Maybe in that way, Claire and I could finally have a closure... Or maybe reconcile, even better.“Hey...” I felt Elijah’s hands on both of my shoulders.“Y-Yeah?”“Would you come there with me? I promise I will be there... I won’t leave your side, Kate... Never again.” I smiled at him, before tiptoeing to give him a quick smack on his lips. He chuckled, before pinching my nose.“So, would you come with me then, Ms. Frias?”“Sure, Elij. I will come with you.&rdqu

KATE’s P.O.V. Elijah take me in his small apartment, and it feel great, being in this place once again. I look around the inner part of his home. It’s so good to know that he didn’t even thought about changing his address for the past few years of his life. Because if he did, I’m pretty sure that I wouldn’t be able to find him anymore if ever that I did came back here myself.“What are you thinking?” I nearly squeal as I suddenly feel his lips on my temple.“Shit! You startled me!” I complained.“Sorry,” was his short response. Though he managed to wrapped his hands around my waist.“Elijah?” I called him, badly wanting to tell him something that is been bothering my mind ever since we became an official couple... Which is one thing that I didn’t expect to happen. Who would have thought that my friend way back in high school would

KATE’s P.O.V. Elijah asked me to go out with him, as we officially started counting our precious exchanges of smiles. He said that he will take me anywhere that I wanted, in any places that will make me smile. And so, I requested him to bring me to our old high school building... The tallest building in our campus, to be specific. While driving, Elijah often glance at my direction for I can’t stop myself from staring at his handsome face. I mean, how could the world be so unfair sometimes? He’s too cute for a guy. I hope I can have even just twenty-five percent of his looks.“Will you stop drooling over me? It kind of starting to freak the hell out of me...” He laughed.“Sorry.” I blushed out of embarrassment. “I just... I couldn’t help it,” I shamelessly admitted.“That’s cute,” he stated, his eyes stil

KATE’s P.O.V. I woke up having a wide smile plastered upon my face. It felt nice, having someone who could give you that peace of mind. I know Elijah wouldn’t cheated on me. I trust him enough... And even though he didn’t promised, I know he wouldn’t. Even though Elijah and I haven’t talk about anything to do for today, I feel the need to prepare myself before going down to our dining room, where my Mom is currently preparing our breakfast.“Hey, you’re looking good, sweetie. How’s your sleep?” she asked me.“It’s... Great, Mom. I think it is.”“Well that was good to hear. Come then, I prepared something for you.” She took out a plate for me before putting a cup of garlic fried rice onto it. She added some bacons and fried eggs, and I instantly felt the hun
