JOANABE POV"Joanabe."I feel someone shaking me."Joanabe! Get a grip on your life!" Shally Mae furiously said, holding my body forcefully."What were you thinking?" She sounds so worried, but I was thinking of Kane running to me, saying he was looking for me. What on earth, Joenabe? He is married. You can't have him, so you better stop it. Shally pinches my shoulder to make me gasp in surprise. I can't be mad. She wants to get me back on my feet. Her eyes look at me like they want to scold me.My eyes enlarge as I could not speak. I am too busy thinking about him. But Kane wasn't thinking about me, and now Shally is sending chills all over my body.I shrug and move Shally Mae out of my way."Joanabe!" Cheryl waved at me, smiling happily. I walk towards her, biting my lower lip, and said in response, "Hi! Cher, Congratulations to you and Kane.""Thank you so much. You look wonderful!" She hugs me, and I am not sure whether to hug her or not, but I patted her back in assurance."Thank
THIRD PERSON POV*BEEP**BEEP*Joanabe's eyes open slowly, and she scans through the room. She looks at her arms with dextrose attached. She heavily sighs when she turns her head to the right. There is a woman on her side, sleeping like a log. She shakes the sleeping body, and its response a hum. The woman stretches her body and looks at Joanabe sadly. Joanabe stretches her body. She positions herself in front of the woman beside her.A tear fall on her face as she says the word, "Mom."**SLAPS**Her mother's eyes reflect anger and scold her, "Joanabe! Why did you do it? How DARE you do it! You don't know what I feel. I was so worried about you. You didn't bother to contact me for months, and now I see you like this!" Joanabe cries and pleads to her Mom, "Mom! I am so sorry, please, forgive me. I do not know what to do anymore. I feel so useless. I feel o lonely. I've lost everything. Forgive me, Mom! Please! Please!"**SLAPS**This time the slap is strong for her face to withstand. H
THIRD PERSON POVIt's been two months since Joanabe passes away. Cheryl breastfeeding her two months old baby as she feels the pain in her nipples.**BITE**BITE**Joanabe, Joenabell rather, is busy biting her mother's nipples instead of drinking her milk.*WINE TASTE BETTER THAN YOUR MILK BLURGH! WHAT A SHAME CHERYL* Joanabe thinks while continuing her business."Baby? Do not like mom's milk? You've been biting my nipples since your first breastfeed," Cheryl looks at her daughter's blue eyes, carrying her close to her chest, and sends kisses to her daughter's cheek due to her adorableness. Joenabell lets go of her mother's breast and shake her head. She keeps swinging her little arms in her face. Cheryl is surprised by her daughter's response to her and thinks that her daughter understands what she was asking. *I MISS MY MOTHER. CHERYL SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN MY MOTHER.* Joenabell suddenly cries, kicking, and moving from left to right in her mother's arms. "UWAHHH!!!""Oh, baby! Sorry,
JOANABE (JOENABELL) POV"Joenabell, are you still awake?" Cheryl asks me, holding me close to the chest, and I pretended to sleep by closing my eyes forcibly, so I hope she won't notice it. I don't really want to get caught for this.This is exciting. I wonder what kind of mother Cheryl would be since she always loves children compare to me, but what do you know, I become her daughter, f***k this."So cute! You look like your father while you are sleeping innocently." Cheryl couldn't hide her feeling of the delight of having a child.I feel that I already hated myself for looking like a carbon copy of my father's sleeping face. I wouldn't want to look like him if I had the chance. I rather, take Cheryl's face voluntarily."Sweet dreams, my baby." She kissed my forehead but--"BWAH!" I started saying random things that my mouth can say in a cute face. I want to see Cheryl's reaction on her face.She looks so shocked. 'Heh! I caught her!'"You are still awake! Are you fooling me, Joena
JOANABE (JOENABELL) POV"Are we ready to go?" Kane asks and breaking us that's hugging each other."I'll take care of the dishes. Have a safe trip." Karene says while cleaning the dining table and heads to the kitchen."Thank you, Karene," says Kane.Kane was standing behind Cheryl. I did not notice him, so as Cheryl. She is startled by him."Anyways, yes, we are ready," Cheryl said calmly while wiping her extra tears on her cheeks. I am still teary from earlier. Kane grabs Cheryl's cheeks to wipe her tears softly.*HUMPH!*I feel like third-wheeling here.Now I know that they did not let me go with them every time they went out on their daughter's birthday, so that is the reason why they always went out. To buy some flowers for me and go to my tomb to visit me. I wonder if there are candles and beautiful flowers in my tombstone, considering that I wasn't a good child to my mother nor a good friend to anyone."Let's go?" Cheryl extended her hand to me, and I entangle it with mine gen
JOANABE (JOENABELL) POV"Daddy I am hungry," I said in confidence with my bright smile I just want to tease them since they are spoiling their daughter, so I want to take advantage of this opportunity."Where do you want to eat? Fastfood chains?" Kane asks me seriously."Honey, we can bring Joenabell in our favorite restaurant," Cheryl said in enthusiasm, clapping her hands, and smiles brightly in her seat.*WOW! I AM A CERTIFIED THIRD WHEEL SINCE I DO NOT FEEL LIKE THEIR DAUGHTER.*I am guessing their favorite restaurant is Diner Casimir."Diner Casimir, It is," Kane nods while watching his wife happily.*BINGO! I KNEW IT. YOU BROUGHT ME THERE ONCE KANE, BUT IT IS JUST THAT YOU TOLD ME SOMETHING THAT BREAKS ME INTO PIECES THAT I MISSED TO EAT A FOOD THERE.*"Okay!" I said in a pitchy voice as little kids do to
THIRD PERSON POVThe loud chirping birds outside wake Joenabell up. She rubs her eyes and stretches her body. Her hands wander in the bed until she touches something hard yet smooth. She looks down to see what she traced."AH!!!" She screams louder than her normal voice."Joenabell, what's wrong?" The person besides her asks."Mommy!" Joenabell squeals."What's with the scream early in the morning, baby?" Kane asks to Joenabell while his half body is exposed.*OH MY GOD! WHY YOU LOOK LIKE A MEAL IN BED KANE!*Joenabell looks so astonished at her father's display of the body. She drools over his body."Mo-mommy! Why daddy sleep half-naked?" Joenabell points at her father Kane's abs."Why not? Joenabell? I feel comfortable sleeping like this," Kane simply answers his daughter's question without any malice, but for Joenabell it is something she did not know and it is blessing her sight."Ehehehe Joenabell, do not mind your daddy in that view," Cheryl said in glee.*YOU'VE ENJOY HIS BODY D
JOANABE (JOENABELL) POVKarene is surprised and is caught off guard by my sudden question."Why are you asking an odd question like that, Joenabell?" She balances the mop from the wall to the ground. "I am just curious," I said looking down at the ground."Life is too short, I believe, but if I ever get the chance to live twice, I will not do the things I regret the most in my life again." I look at Karene's sincere face. Her eyes show certainty. I wish I can do what she said."What did you regret the most in your life, Karene if you do not mind me asking?" We maintain our eye contact and her eyes become teary."I-I left home to work without saying goodbye to my parent because I want to be independent I thought I can stand on my own, but it sucks to say that I am not." She cracks up speaking in her voice and covers her eyes from me, but I can tell she cries.*SHE MUST MISS HER FAMILY SO MUCH FOR HER TO BEAR*Hearing Karene sad words ache me somewhat I know and I understand how it fee
