When the students had noticed the; presence of another person inside the classroom, they hurriedly looked up from their slouching position and eyed the newcomer. The second they had known that it was only Ms. Suarez who- had arrived, they continued with what they were doing earlier.
This series of actions from the students earned a raising of the eyebrow from Angelo; he was not sure if these students of Aimie were well-behaved or plain rude. As soon as he was standing on the center stage, Angelo began to greet the students, but instead of greeting him back- he was welcomed by complete silence.
There was complete silence in the room that even a single drop of; a pen would be; heard. Angelo began to lose his composure; he; doesn't know what to do, he was shaking on the inside, but he made sure not to express it on his face. He took anothe
Angelo slumped on the sofa as soon as he had arrived at the main house. He began to stretch his tired muscles and lay on the; sofa completely. He was in a slack position when Mark had suddenly emerged from the front door.When Mark had seen that his wife was; sprawled languorously on the couch, he went directly to the couch and sat on the available space. As soon as he had seated- he took the feet of Aimie and began to massage it."How was your first day of returning to work?" Mark inquired while massaging the soles of Aimie's foot.Angelo was shocked when all of a sudden Mark had grabbed his feet, but he; regained his composure when he learned that- Mark had only wanted to massage his tired limbs. He began to relax his body and concentrate on- the soothing effect that Mark was doing."It was so stressful," Angelo replied when he heard the inquiry of; Mark. "Just the first hour and; I felt like I've aged for ten years. If I had a choice, then I would have
Angelo was feeling pain all over his body, and he suddenly had the urge to just lay on the comfy bed all day. It was only just last night when the unexpected visitor had shown up, and now, he can't even get out of the bed. Angelo wanted to cry because of unfairness. He who- used to be a robust male was suddenly bedridden unto the bed.He was in a sort of a depressive mood when- Mark had gone out of the bathroom, seeing the toned muscles and damp hair of Mark made Angelo's hormones level- to rise. He doesn't know why, but he had the urge to prick a thousand needles- on Mark's body. Angelo followed Mark's actions with an intense gaze, and when he realized that- Mark was coming his way, Angelo retracted his fierce stare.The instant that- Mark had gotten near him, Angelo began to panic- that he wasn't able to know where he should land his
Angelo could say that his week was like a roller coaster ride for him. He had experienced many kinds of emotions- in seven days, and though it was exhausting, Angelo felt that the time he spent was fun and enjoying. He was happily preparing a packed meal for his lunch- in the kitchen when he saw Mark- striding towards him. Angelo immediately paused his actions and looked at Mark. The moment Mark had gotten near Angelo. He greeted him and inquired what Angelo was busily doing in the kitchen. Angelo explained that- he was preparing for his lunch and continued placing decorative garnish- on his packed lunch. Mark suddenly became curious about what his wife was making- so he craned his neck and looked at the lunch- that his wife prepared and saw that it was appealing to the; eyes. Mark took a piece of meat in the lunch box. Because of Mark’s swift actions, Angelo was unable- to stop Mark from stealing his precious; meal. Since the m
Angelo was on his way to the parking lot when suddenly, someone had yanked him. The sudden force caused him to lose his footing and stumble. Angelo was about to fall directly to the ground when a pair of; strong hands had supported him. Angelo looked at the face of the person- who had helped him. The instant Angelo had seen the face of his savior, he knitted his brows and frowned. The person supporting him was too familiar to him, but he; can’t seem to connect where he had seen or met the person. Angelo straightened himself and adjusted his clothes. He then tried to feel his ankles- checking to see- whether or not he had sprained his ankle. Angelo instantly flinched when he felt the pain shoot through his brain- while he was trying to; step the left side of his foot- on the ground. “Why did you suddenly pull me? Just look at what you did, man. My ankle is; already swollen.” Angelo immediately reprimanded the person who- had pulled him without w
Angelo was fuming in anger as he entered his room. As he slumped in the bed, Angelo started to remember the fiery exchange of words he had with Josiah. His head started- to throb as he began to think of some counteractive measures against Aimie’s lover. Since a couple of; threatening words were spoken by Josiah- before they had parted ways was; bugging Angelo’s mind. While he was busy thinking of some strategic plan, someone had knocked on the room’s door. Without getting out of the bed, Angelo just gave his command and permitted; whoever would enter the room. Angelo was jotting down notes without looking- at the identity of the person- who had entered his personal space. The clacking of the heels was so evident in the surrounding, making Angelo halt- what he was doing. He swiftly organized his notes and placed them under his pillow- when he was sure that- his notes were; well hidden under the pillow, Angelo faced the person- who had arrived.
It was almost midnight when Mark's mother had finally released Angelo from the torture of trying some gowns. Angelo was grumbling in his mind as he headed towards his room, and when he was inside- he saw the image of Mark- to be sound asleep on the bed. Angelo couldn't help but sneer in his heart and begrudgingly went to the opposite side of the bed where Mark was sleeping. He then threw some punches- on the air since Angelo couldn't believe that- Mark was sleeping so soundly while he- himself was abused by his mother.But the more Angelo threw punches- in the air, the more his body started to; ache. He unwillingly stopped his action and pouted at the man- who was deeply asleep. Angelo began to stretch his tired muscles before he stood up and took a quick bath.Opening the faucet, Angelo decided to relax- in the bathtub, the moment his
But no matter how hard Angelo pleads, Mark's mother won't listen to him. With no way of letting out his anger, Angelo could only glare at the poor stylist. Angelo's eyes started to sting with all the glaring he did to the poor stylist. Even with the threat in front of him, the stylist acted as if he didn't see the glare of Aimie- causing Angelo to stop his failed attempt at looking like a formidable person.It took hours before the group of the stylist was done dressing up their madam- that it made Angelo feel like he was going to have a headache with all the ornamentals they had adorned- on Aimie's body.The much-awaited word of Angelo had finally come- when the stylist had told him- that they were already done beautifying him up. The words coming from the stylist were like music to Angelo's ears, making him hug the man tightly.
The conversation between Angelo and his idol was interrupted when Mrs. Castro went to their side and asked to borrow her daughter. Angelo nods his head- indicating that it is alright for him. Amanda apologized to Angelo and to her brother before she stood in her seat and greeted her mother.Angelo followed with his sight the direction- in which the mother and daughter went to. And when they had come to a halt towards the stage, Angelo immediately adjusted his position- making it so that he would be facing the center of the room.His eyes twinkled, seemingly excited as to- what Amanda would say. Because of his excitement, Angelo forgot the existence of Mark- beside him.“Having a phone in hand would be perfect- in this jubilant day,” Angelo murmured to himself and couldn’t help but sigh since he had forgotten to bring his phone with him.“Here.” Mark then handed his phone as if he could hear the soft whi
It was a typical yet bustling day inside a particular supermarket; the reason for its overly busy day was all because the people were trying to benefit from the clearance sale held inside the establishment. While most people were having a fierce battle in buying the goods that had an enormous amount slashed from the original price, a single distinct person was trying to avoid the large crowds of people.That person is a woman who was distinctive among the crowds of people since she is the only woman wearing an overly large dress and sporting a swollen belly. As she lightly rubs her belly, the woman looks at the crowded people with envy before looking at her big stomach. The woman smiled when she felt a light kick in her stomach. She then turned her body in the crowd's opposite direction and tried to grab a box of cereals in the utmost section of the shelf.The woman tried to stand on her toes as she tried to reach the cereal, and when she could not get even a single bo
“I’m going to go back to my room,” Aimie tried to steady her breathing since she was flustered by Mark’s back hug. “You better leave now if you don’t want to stay on the road driving the whole night.” “I know you’re mad because of what I have told you during the party, and I don’t know what to do for your anger to vanish. Tell me what I should do for you to forgive me.” Angelo muttered as he leaned his face on the nook of Aimie’s neck. Aimie felt the breathing of Mark against her neck; goosebumps instantly appeared all over her body because of how close Mark was to her. For a moment, Aimie doesn’t know what to do with how things progress, it was just a few minutes ago when Mark was leisurely sitting on the couch with a haughty look on his face, but now he was trying to earn her forgiveness. This action of Mark made Aimie feel weird since, although she had grown used to Mark’s loving gestures, it was her first time to see him sincerely ask for forgiveness. Tho
Thinking about those things made Aimie unconsciously shed a tear. She felt that her life would be simple now than when she was still Angelo, but she didn’t expect to experience so much heartache in Aimie’s body.If she had the chance to see the original Aimie next time, she would be sure to ask for a reward from her since all that was given to her was grief when she had possessed the original Aimie’s body. She made a mental note to take all the money of the real Aimie, including her pocket money, to spend it lavishly for her around the world voyage after this whole ordeal is done.Her daydreaming came to a halt when Mark unexpectedly wiped the tears that accumulated from the corner of her eyes. Aimie winced and was about to back away from Mark when Mark had tightened her hold on her waist suddenly.“What do you think are you doing?” Aimie tried to create some distance away from Mark using all the force her body had, and as she did s
It was as if time had stopped between the adults that were inside the house. No one wanted to break the heavy atmosphere around them, as if they were all comfortable about their hefty feelings. But soon, the suffocating feeling vanished when a loud wail of the child that Aimie was holding was heard throughout the entire house of Rain.They simultaneously looked at the child in Aimie’s arms with a look that was a combination of curiousness, bewilderment, anxiousness, and peevishness. While the attention was still on the child, Aimie glanced at Angelus’s way; her gaze was full of pleading since she didn’t know what to do with the child in her arms.Before the child’s wail could escalate, Angelus had fortunately seen the look of help in Aimie’s eyes. Angelus quickly took his younger sister in Aimie’s arms and carried his younger sister with a bottle of milk in his other hand.“Do you perhaps have a spare room so that my you
The soft and white ball with a pair of chubby hands and feet hugged Angelus tightly, and because of the height difference between the soft as mochi child and Angelus, the lovely child could only hug Angelus’s leg.The child’s big pair of sparkling eyes, completed with plump reddish cheeks, would make anyone feel in love with the lovable child. Seeing the cute interaction between Angelus and the adorable child made Aimie feel jealous since she also wanted to pinch the child’s chubby cheeks.While Aimie was dying in enviousness, the child hugging the leg of Angelus suddenly looked at Aimie’s way, making Aimie flinch for a second before giving the child a friendly smile. Even if she wanted to hug the child but given her current situation, it seems Aimie couldn’t act friendly with the cute child since she is just a stranger.Unbeknownst to Aimie, she gave a facial expression, a; mixture of longing and sadness that the child couldn&rsquo
Standing in front of a familiar place, Aimie’s conviction of living the life of the original Aimie faltered slowly. The once place she never thought she would get to see again was now before her. Aimie wanted to curse out whoever was playing with her conviction. The resoluteness she had of not seeing the parents Angelo had grown up with fell down the drain the instant she was standing right in front of the house that had the memories of the family she had missed so much.As Aimie was standing right in front of the house, recollection of the past flashed through her.Every time Angelo returned home, this house would greet him, and though his parents rarely returned home because of work, it didn’t feel like the abode was empty. The lingering warmth didn’t make him think that this house made him lonely, but why does this house who would always bring him comfort now feel as though it had become melancholic.“Is it alright for me to be here?&r
Suddenly, the memories of the past had flashed through Aimie’s mind. From how friendship was formed between Angelo and Mark. Their unruly days as students and how they formed deep friendships were shattered because of a single misunderstanding. The mouth that opened instantly closed, and whatever harsh words she was about to say to Mark were stuck in her throat. No matter how much Aimie wanted to hate Mark like in the past but seeing the man she had cherished for long as a close confidant, Aimie could not totally despise the man in front of her.Tracing the man’s fine features in front of her made Aimie realize that she had totally fallen for Mark. No matter how she denies it, it can’t hide the fact that she could not hide her feelings. Though she had already realized that she had feelings for Mark when the original Aimie and her met, it wasn’t like this moment when she could not hide it completely.The attraction she had for the man was undenia
After Aimie had sent her resignation letter via the courier service, she made her way to the meeting place that Angelus had texted her earlier. As she went to the area, Aimie’s heart was widely beating since she could finally see her family after a few months. While the car was making its way to the place, Aimie contemplated how she would act towards her family. Whether she would be respectful or nonchalant, Aimie was confused. It has been a long time since she hadn’t seen her own family, the family whom she had grown up to, her original family- Angelo’s family, whom her original self had promised to protect. And one thing that Aimie is sure would be hard to do when she meets her parents is to control herself from not crying in front of her parents.The moment the car that Rain had lent to her had finally come to a stop. Aimie looked at the tall building that was as if reaching the sky because of its height. While looking out of the car, Aimie contemplated h
As soon as Aimie arrived at their meeting area, she could not tidy her swollen face since Rain was already standing a few meters away. Rain had a look that hinted she was curious why the face of Aimie had gotten to the point of being swollen red like she had been crying for a long time.“What happened to you?” just like what Aimie had expected, Rain inquired why she had gotten to the point of being unrecognizable.Aimie wanted to just drop the matter, so instead of truthfully answering that she happened to cross paths with Mark, Aimie came up with another plausible reason why her face was in so much mess.“It’s because of the movie that I watched while waiting for you to arrive,” Aimie deduced that using this reason was more effective than telling Rain that- she had tripped on the air and cried for hours.But it seems Rain didn’t believe Aimie’s story since she was looking at Aimie with scrutinizing eyes, but rega
