Sophia Censatio"Why are you still hiding it from him? Aren't you supposed to tell him you're in love with Aaron?""Lexy, that will be too much on him. Sophia knows what she's doing, telling him that would hurt his feelings. Besides, they've been friends for a while now, if she has to tell him that.. she will need to be careful with her choice of words with him considering the issue between the two men. Of course, she wouldn't want to hurt Jonathan." Janet said."Nevertheless, Sophia. You would still have to tell him, he needs to know you like Aaron else, you want to consider Jonathan instead" Beth said. "Are you crazy?! Why would I choose Jonathan over Aaron? I mean, of course, Jonathan is a great guy. He's also good looking and he's every woman's dream, he's completely the opposite of Aaron, he is sweet and caring. Not only that, he understands me a lot. He knows when I'm sad and happy but Aaron, he's completely the opposite of him yet, I can't believe I choose him over a man like

Sophia Censatio"What are you talking about?" "You're acting weird, I don't know you anymore. I don't even understand you. This is not the Aaron I used to know. You wouldn't even listen to me. I just wanted us to be back together. Let's go back to how we used to be but, you don't want that. You keep pushing me away. This is not you anymore.""For fuck sake, you can't expect me to be the same person you knew back then. You ruined me and want me to accept you back with open arms?." He scoffs."Why? Why can't you accept me back? I accept my mistakes. I apologized for it, what else do you want me to do?.""Leave." He suddenly said."What?!""Leave and do not come back to me again. Just go away, do not come near me anymore. I'm fine without you and I'm happy.""Because of Sophia?.""Fuck!" He grunts. "Why would you bring up-""Just answer me! Why are you doing this to me? You don't love her, do you? She's just one of your flings. I know you too well, Aaron. You can't love any other woman

Sophia Censatio"What?! No! Why would I be? You told me everything already and I understand your point. Come on, let's order our coffee. It's been an hour." I said. I just do not want him to talk about it again because if he does, I have no idea what response to give to him."You still want me to give you more time to think about it? I can do that if that's what you want. Just promise me you will give me a chance, you will give us, a chance... Hmmm." He said.I'm sorry, Jonathan. I'm truly sorry. My heart now belongs to someone else. Even though. he's been a jerk to me, there's nothing I could do about it. I'm head over heels for him already and, I can't change that- I wanted to say this to him but I decided to keep my mouth shut. It will only worsen the situation."Sophia, you're not saying anything.""Jonathan, I-""Forget about it. I should have known better." He said."Huh? Know what?." I can't help but ask.Did he know already? No, this can't be!"Of course, you can't say yes to

Sophia Censatio"Aaron?" I heard Jonathan asked."Hmmm" I hummed. ""I'm sorry, Jonathan. I need to leave now. An important work came up." Lies and lies."I understand, I can give you a ride back to the hotel" he said."Erm, no!!!" I exclaimed whilst he look at me surprised. "I mean, you don't have to, I will be fine. It's just die few minutes walk from here.""But Sophia, this is not some five minutes walk, it's more than that. I will only drop you off and leave afterwards.""Jonathan, you..." I trailed off and scratch the nape of my neck. I have no idea how to say this to him. If Aaron set his eyes on him then, he will be do upset at me.. they might end up having an argument which I don't want that.I gently follow behind him after he paid for the books I got. 5 minutes later, we arrive at the hotel and both hopped down from the car. "Take care and do not stress yourself much. I will give you a call later in the day and always remember this, whenever he troubles you, I'm always h

Sophia CensatioThat person is Janet. "What are you doing?." He asked her."No, I should be the one doing that... What are you trying to do, Aaron? As you can see, we're all here to be with Sophia and now, you're dragging her away along with you to only God knows where." She said rolling her eyes." I need to talk to her." He said flatly."Aaron, you can have that discussion with her later, can you just allow us to have some time for ourselves?" Janet asked him in a sweet tone. "How about I call your husbands and tell them you're all dressed and ready to go for a party behind their backs? It's just a one-minute call, you know." He threatened them as he brought out his phone, ready to call them as he had said. I watch them all look pale all of a sudden. I've never seen them this scared before. Just as those words came out of his mouth, Janet let go of my hand. " You won't do that!" Chloe glared at him." Try me baby girl" He smirked and the next thing we all heard was Leonard's vo

Sophia CensatioIs this real? No, I don't want to believe that Aaron is trying to open up to me."I used to cherish her a lot. Do anything just for her to be happy but, turned out everything was just a lie. I was with her thinking she loved me but, I was only deceiving myself. She wasn't... The only thing she was after then was my wealth. And Jonathan, they have both been cheating behind my back and I had no idea about it." He said in a sad tone." Wh... What?! No, no, no... You are mistaken Aaron, he had no idea she was with you, you two were deceived by her, believe me. Jonathan has been telling you the truth all these while just, in the same way, you have no idea about their relationship was also the same way he doesn't have an idea also. Please, believe me." I don't know why I'm saying all of this to him, I just want to clear the misunderstanding between them. I truly wish, the two can settle their differences and forget about what has happened in the past."Stop defending that ba

Sophia Censatio"What took you so long? We all thought you were dead or something." Janet said in a worried tone the moment she got up to open my room door and I walked in." Sorry." I quietly mumbled and lazily sauntered towards my bed and slumped on it. The rest of the girls were seated on the couch and hurriedly walk over to where I was sitting with Janet."Wait, did you two make out again? And, have you been crying?." Lexy asked as she fixed her gaze intently on my face."Yes, we did and I ruined everything." I admitted."What do you mean, you ruin everything? What happened? " Beth questioned." I asked him to take me while we're both making out and he got mad at me and then send me out of his room."" When you said, take you. Do you mean, to make love with you? " Tia asked." Hmmm. " I hummed." Why would you say that to a man who hasn't even talked to you for once that he likes you? " Chloe exclaimed and hit my left hand roughly."What do you expect me to do? I'm going crazy bec

Sophia CensatioA slut? He sees me as nothing but a slut? "Fine! You see me as a slut, right? I don't care! I just want you. Is that hard for you to give? After all, you've taken everything from me. You took my freedom, my life, and everything... What then is stopping you from doing this?."I don't care if I look stupid to him right now, I just can't take it anymore. I can't hide it. He started this and he doesn't want to finish it."You're talking rubbish. Look, no matter how bad I've treated you... You're still different from the other girls I've known, stop being stupid and stop all this nonsense, okay? This will be good for both of us. Leave now, Sophia, and never talk about what happened today.""Why?! Why shouldn't I talk about it? Why can't you use me? Isn't that what you're doing? You're using me to get rid of someone else's existence and I'm not complaining!" I yelled angrily at him."Get a grip of yourself, Sophia!" He yelled as he grab my shoulder. "Get a grip of yourself

Sophia Censatio8 Months laterIt's been three months already. Everything is now in places. If there's anything I'm so sure of right now is, my family is complete once again. Eight months ago, Aaron did his best in making it up to him and I must say that, he really tried his best. I almost had a misunderstanding with him because of that so called girl Alissa. He begged me and told me it was all a mistake. Everything happened when he lost his memory and he regretted his actions. I forgave him though and my parents, both my mom, I did forgive them also. Weeks later, I have no idea of what Cynthia was thinking, she came to me and apologized to my husband and I. Not only that, I also reconciled with my sister, Bianca and brother, Joseph too. Did I also tell you that Jonathan came to ask for a forgiveness? Well, he did. And now, he is going out with Cynthia again, hopefully, the two will get married at the same time with Nathan and Tiana. Well, that's what I've been hoping for. Six mon

Sophia CensatioThe doctor, who I assumed was a friend of Aaron's, checked my arm for a few minutes before looking up at him and telling Aaron that everything would be fine. She prescribed me medications and told me to take them constantly without missing them. She leaves the room and Aaron follows. I swear, I saw the look she gave my husband. A loving and seductive look. My whole body suddenly heated up with jealousy. I get up from Aaron's bed and follow them in silence without them noticing. I saw her cross her hand over her chest and give Aaron a seductive look. I knew it! I knew something was wrong when she bit her lip before leaving the room prematurely. "What are you doing Alissa?" Aaron asked her as she suddenly approached him and put her hand on his chest. I was very calm not to be noticed, even though I'm seething with rage right now. “Stop your stupid trick, idiot, tell her to stop touching you like that and you're my man. make her understand, idiot" I wanted to come out

Sophia Censatio"Hmm," I mumbled. " What the hell ! How dare she?" he shouted angrily."He saved me from her, thanks to Jonathan who was there when she attacked me."“Damn it! I can't believe she's here to show her face and do this to you.” Saying that, he hissed.“Can we forget that for a moment? My right arm hurts Aaron." i cried for him.Before I knew what he was doing, he grabbed me, picked me up in a bridal style. "Aaron!!! What are you doing?" I asked him."Aaron, where are you taking me?" I asked again as he left my room. "That's up to me to know and up to you to find out." he says as he kisses my cheek."Okay, I don't know where you're taking me, but can you at least drop me off? I don't want people to see us like this," I said."Why? You are my wife. As much as I can proudly show you to the world, I don't care what other people think." He kissed my cheek again as he said that.Well, this person is no longer acting normal. I'm still surprised he wasn't totally upset after see

Sophia Censatio"Sofia! Are you okay?" he asked again concerned. I look at him and sneered at him, I can't believe you had the courage to show me his face after everything he did to me. "Jonathan, what do you think you're doing here?"" how did you get into my room? who told you I was here?" I ask him questions.“Sofia, can you at least let me explain? You didn't let me explain and you're so upset at me for what-""Wait a minute, did you say upset?" I'm running out of patience now. “If I was upset at you, I would have told Aaron to put you in jail a long time ago. Listen, I have nothing to tell you. Get out of my room for now. I don't want to talk to you and I don't have to listen to you. Stay away and never come back. ""But Sofia, you...""I said you need to leave." I raised my hand to stop him from saying another word. My hands, shaking again. Now I can actually feel the pain behind my arm. I can't believe I hurt this arm badly earlier. "You're still the same, so stubborn," he sa

Sophia Censatio"Oh! How did I forget you're not close and I can totally understand what that means. Your mean mother, Ivy, has made my life unbearable ever since my father died. Not only did she made my life miserable, but she made me her tool. A tool to extract money from the rich.""What are you talking about ?!!""Why?! Why are you so surprised? Didn't you see how she almost made me take everything from Aaron? I was about to reach my goal when I found out that Aaron had signed all of his properties in your name. And now you think... I will allow you and that miserable mother to ever be happy? It has to be ruined, just like she ruined mine."“You know, I still feel weird about the whole thing because I can't believe we had the same father. And my biological mother has always been good to you and Ivy couldn't do that to me. My mother took care of you and Ivy makes my life miserable every day. Well, it looks like someone is in danger." Her face suddenly smells of danger.“Cynthia, do

Sophia CensatioWeek laterA week has passed since the incident. I heard from Aaron that Susan had left the country. She's in Greece now. But I wonder what she was doing there and how he knew where she was. She left without telling anyone... Kate, on the other hand, was very worried about her and her parents. But Aaron wanted nothing more than to catch her and make her pay for what she did to me.Even if she pays for what she did to me, it won't change anything for now. And Kate, she took such good care of her I think. I mean, I was told that. She sees her as the daughter she lost a year ago.Come back to me.Where do you think I live now? I am staying at one of the Aaron hotels. He wanted to take me home but I still can't. We had several conversations about staying in a hotel at the moment, which was very hard to convince. He told me he would only allow me to stay at his hotel.And I'm glad he understood that I want to be alone for now. I take the time to think clearly. And mom, I pi

Sophia Censatio"Don't touch me! I deserve to know the whole truth...and now that I know it, the woman I loved so much, the woman I would give my life for, the woman I would sacrifice my happiness for, ain't nothing like a liar. She ain't nothing but a cheat! She's a kidnapper!" I got mad and spat on her. I don't know what's wrong with me or why I'm so mean to her all of a sudden, but I have to tell her everything I'm thinking right now. It's too much for me to bear. I may seem strong, but I'm in deep pain with myself right now. "Sophia!!! How dare you call me a kidnapper?!" She demanded angrily and she stopped midway to hit me. My eyes widened in horror, but she stopped as she slowly withdrew her hand."Come on, hit me! Do it! Come on, hit me! After all, I'm not your biological daughter. I'm not yours, so hit me! Come on, hit me. Hit me all you want!" I took her hand and kept hitting my face with it.She tried to pull her hand away from mine, but mine was gripped so tightly. I wasn'

Sophia Censatio"Hello Alvira." I heard a voice, I mean, we all heard his voice behind us, me and my friends. Needless to say whose voice it was, of course it was Ivy.I wonder what this woman is doing here right now. She is the last person I want to see right now."Hi girls." She greets my friends. I can't take my eyes off her for a second. She was now a person who behaves like a good person. I can't believe she's the same Ivy I used to know. The ivy I knew was cruel, disrespectful, and ruthless, with no regard for the feelings of others. The ivy I see now is different from the ivy I knew before. The Ivy who doesn't care and act random but I know why the act all of a sudden. Well, nothing will change my mind just because of her sudden change in attitude."Hi, Ivy," Janet greeted her with a small smile on her face."Hello." Beth said."Hello Ivy. Good morning." Lexy greeted her."Hello." Chloe said.She walked over to where I lay on the bed and walked past my friends with a small sm

Aaron Samuel"Where is she now?" I asked Nathan."Okay, I haven't heard from her since the accident, she's been missing since yesterday.""So now, you're saying no one knows where she is?""I called David and I think his call will come in now." Nathan said. Time passed and my phone rang. I took it out of my pocket and kept it. "Yes David?""Boss, we found her whereabouts. She's in Greece."" Greece? ! What the hell is she doing there without paying for her sin?" I wasn't talking to anyone in particular, more likely to myself."Good. Please send me all information on her whereabouts immediately.""Okay boss, Roger that." he said. "Boss…" he reminded me before I hung up. "What is it, David?""I have something important to share with you."“Look David, whatever you want to tell me can wait…I'm sure it doesn't matter as much my wife's. if it's not about my wife, set everything aside for now.""Exactly, boss. But that goes for you too, it has to do with your wife.""What happened to my wi
