(Trigger warning: Death, Suicide)
It’s the morning after. Ace insisted that we should have breakfast in Mama Eve’s restaurant. He insisted since he said that it's time for him to introduce me as someone special to Mama Eve. Not just any kind of friend or something. I was honored and flattered, actually. His gestures are making my heart really flatter.
At the same time, I’m quite nervous about being introduced as someone special. It’s my first time, we all know that. I know mama Eve is nice, but my heart is still giving me jitters knowing that I'll be introduced.
We walked to the restaurant. Ace is being giddy on the way. I guess he’s in a happy mood.
“Good morning, mama Eve!” I politely greeted her. She hugged me like she used to. I
Ace’s POVI made a decision that this would be the day that I’ll tell Mr. Dy about my feelings for his daughter. I’m not sure how he will react to this. I know how protective and loyal he is when it comes to this company, he does his best. I’m pretty sure he’s more than that when it comes to his only daughter.He has the right to know that I’m courting her daughter. And I’m serious about pursuing her. I don’t want to go behind his back, I want to give respect. I want to ask for his daughter’s hand.I’m quite nervous actually. I’ve known Mr. Dy ever since I started working in this company, but I don’t know some side of him yet.Bliss doesn't know that I’ll be talking to her father. We didn’t d
Bliss' POV It’s been months now and Ace is still courting me. I know, it’s been ages and we’re not yet official, but like I said, we’re taking things slow. What I like about him is that he doesn't even rush me. I'm glad he’s being patient with me and understands me. He’s my real-life prince charming, he makes me feel like I’m a princess every single day. His efforts and the way he makes me feel special make me fall for him deeply. I don’t even know if I love him now, but I just know that I’m falling for him. We’ve been on several dates together. I even spent Christmas with him together with my family. My family welcomes him like he’s really part of it. I’m also glad that my parents approved of him. I mean, who wouldn’t? He’s the best. I’m happy that Mama Eve also treats
It’s Saturday and it’s our year-end party for freshmen! Our university always has a year-end party at the end of the school year. It is like a tradition of this school.Freshman days are now officially over! Time flies when you're really enjoying it.The place of the party is a 5-star hotel. Our university really chose a great reception for this event, all thanks to them.We don’t really have a theme but of course, we’re required to wear something fancy. When it comes to picking something to wear, Anvien is responsible for that one. I mean, she insisted on that. I don’t even mind since she’s great with it.We’re here at my apartment. We decided not to book a room for this time since Anvien has somewh
I woke up and realized I passed out at the party earlier. I don’t know what happened. I still feel everything is spinning, I can’t even see clearly.“Ace?” I mumbled. My eyes are half-closed but I know I’m in someone’s car and I can’t really tell who the driver is. I only see his back since I’m here in the back seat. His silhouette seems familiar, I know who has that kind of back.“It’s me, Clyde.” Well, I guess I’m wrong though. Maybe I just miss my boyfriend. Oh, my boyfriend. I felt giddy when I remembered that Ace is my boyfriend.I suddenly felt embarrassed, what happened to me? Why did I let myself be this drunk?“Oh my god, I'm
FlashbackAce’s POVIt’s my father’s birthday. I don’t really care about his special day. Ever since I was a kid, his birthday is just an ordinary day for me despite grandly celebrating it. His birthday is always grand and exalted since he is really known because of the company he built. That is his way to meet new people, business partners, and even stockholders.But ever since I became the CEO of his company, he rarely celebrate it.Except now. He's inviting me for a dinner. I don't want to the face of that cruel man. But I have to. It's time to confront him. It's time to know things I've been keeping for the past few days and even years.I want to talk to him about things, th
Bliss POV I woke up with an intense headache. My head is still spinning. Am I still drunk? I guess this is what they call a hangover. I’ve had alcoholic drinks many times now but this is the first time I’m experiencing this. I groaned while I turned to the other side of my bed but to my surprise, Ace was in bed with me. “Huh?” I panicked. He was shirtless. I know he’s my boyfriend but I can’t remember what happened last night. I mean, all I can remember is that we kissed, and uhm... Yeah... My eyes widened when a glimpse of something that happened last night flashback to me. I puked on him. Silly me! How can I forget that? That’s really embarrassing. I hope he’s not mad at me. I checked o
It’s Monday. I have no classes right now since it’s my summer break, obviously. My first summer of college life. Ace got better this morning so he’s at work now. But we’ll have a dinner date later and I'm excited about it!I’m preparing for that right now. I’ll be wearing a dress tonight. In case you didn’t know, I’ve been wearing dresses now. My whole wardrobe has changed ever since I turned 18, plus it’s the influence of Anvien. She said I look good in a dress and it suits me! Since I am a good friend, I'll follow her advice.The only thing I’ve been struggling with is how to put on some make-up. I don’t want to look like a clown so I decided that I won’t be wearing something I don’t know how to apply. So, I’ll just put on s
Warning: SPG!! We stopped kissing for a minute and just stared at each other. Smiling and giggling like little kids. His hands are on my waist while he’s still on the floor and facing me. I brushed his hair using my hands. I felt grateful for how he handled the way I acted earlier. That was also the first time I got my feelings hurt for a bit. But it was not his fault. I just felt insecure. I mean, who wouldn’t? But I know better now. Comparing yourself to others is not healthy. As he said. I should not be insecure since we all have our own beauty. Ace and I kissed again. I couldn’t think of anything now since our kiss got more deepened. It was sweet but it’s b
Ace is still in the hospital, the doctor said that he needs to stay in the hospital for a while because his injury was mainly in his head, so he has to be monitored. I still feel guilty that he has to suffer from this, but I’m glad that I am able to take care of him. If I didn't change my mind about France, I’ll be leaving 3 days from now. I think it would be selfish if I go there and leave Ace alone here. I haven’t told him yet about this, but I’m sure he will understand. He’s sleeping soundly now. Though, sometimes, I’m still anxious about seeing him sleeping. I’m still scared that he might not wake up this time. But I have to let go of that thought. That kind of negativity should stay away from me. I have to keep in my mind that he is safe now and everything will be alright. As I watch him sl
Everything was blurry. I can’t even feel my legs. I don’t hear anything except for the ringing in my ears. My heart, I can’t hear my heart. I think it stopped beating. “Bliss! Bliss!” My dad called me. I hugged my parents when I saw them. They’re also here in the hospital. “What happened?” He asked. “I-I don’t know. I just heard a honking, then something crashed, then I saw Ace...” I started crying again. I couldn’t even talk properly. There is a lump in my throat that's hindering me from talking. All I want is to cry. “T-there on the ground.” My mom hugged me tightly. I don’t know what happened. Everything was so fast that I couldn’t comprehend. It was my fault. E
Ace's POV: Flashback from 4 years agoI heard someone sniff her nose. I rolled my eyes since I knew what was going on."Don't leave me. Please." She said. I chuckled. She held my hand like she wasn't eager to let me go.Her eyes were red from crying and when a tear just came out from it, I was taken back for a bit. I didn't know I can feel pity when I see her this way."Wow. That was really good. Your acting is superb." I said as I clapped my hands."Really? Do you think I'll do great?" Jelly asked.She is practicing her lines for her taping later. As a supportive boyfriend, I am helping her deliver it. She's great. She doesn't even need some practice, but my girlfriend is such a perfectionist."Okay, I'll take a shower and then you drive me to where my taping is." She said as she sounds so demanding. I don
After cooking for my and Ace's dinner in his office, I packed the meals very nicely. I want it to be really special. Dad was even jealous since I prepared Ace a very special meal, I haven’t done that to him before. I feel bad about that but I guess I have to do that to my dad next time. Boyfriend duties, first. Sorry, Dad.I just walked to Buenaventura's company building with a big smile on my face. It feels nice to walk here again. I haven’t walked here for a long time. Dad doesn't play tennis every Wednesday now since they have a busy schedule, that’s why I can’t visit him there every Wednesday. They have been really busy these past few months. It's good to be back here.I rode the elevator. I just remember the first meeting with Ace here.
I have one week left before going to France. I can finally say that I am excited or should I say, Je suis excité! I only know french basic words, Lunan and I studied for that. We had a French lesson. But two months is not enough for me to nail that language, besides, french is hard to learn.It’s the weekend and I have a date with Ace. We’ll be going to a Marine theme park, which I'm very excited about. We’re just making the most out of my remaining time in this country.I will surely miss him. Of course, who wouldn’t? Our relationship will be long-distance now. Distance makes the heart fonder, they said. I have to trust in that. Plus, I trust Ace with all my heart. We can make this relationship work.
I was holding my phone the whole ride home wondering if Clyde would message me or call me since I need an explanation why he never told me anything about his father and even Ace. All this time, I am surrounded by the Buenaventura Clan.Come to think of it, I am friends with Ace’s cousins. My best friend is his half-brother. He is my dad’s boss.I don’t know if that’s funny. Sure, there’s no problem. It’s just weird that they are all related.I looked at Ace. He looked serious while driving. He said he was not mad about me not telling him sooner about France. I’m glad he’s not but I think he's not in his best mood. He looked serious and I hate that.I’m still not sure about France.
I am grateful that I got to guess what Clyde's favorite cake flavor is. It was a chocolate cake. Very simple. I feel bad again ‘cause I was planning in my head that I’ll bake him one instead. But, there’s always the next time. We were eating the cake that I bought him. Ace would be here at any minute. I was still a little bit anxious about what will happen if both of them interact again. The last time they saw each other was the night I got super drunk. I hope they don’t fight again like what happened. Aside from my dad, these two are the most precious men in my life. Clyde is my best friend, and Ace is my lovely boyfriend. I want them both to be friends or even just interact nicely with each other since I held them close to my heart.
After Ace left for his work, I scanned for my clothes again and my purse. I haven’t checked my phone yet since last night and I still don’t know where my clothes are. Everything was just so swift that I couldn’t think where Ace took off my clothes.Then I remembered what we just did last night. I can't believe I did that. My cheeks felt hot. I am not that innocent anymore.I smiled at the thought of it. I just couldn’t believe that someone like me, a shy and demure girl, would do something like that.I heard my phone ring inside my purse. It was Clyde. I winced in dismay when I remembered that it’s his birthday today. I was supposed to be with him right now, how could I forget?"Happy birthday!"
