19"Tell her you're sorry." She continued to say."She turned off her phone." Milo responded."Say it on TV." Josh commented right away."No." Milo groans inwardly. "I can't do that. You know how crazy my fans can go. I care about her. I really care about this woman that's why I did that but she doesn't seem to see it the way I wanted her to."Lou laughs. "You must already be used to it Mill. Women are always undecided on everything and women always doesn't see the good side of something when they're mad at it.""Exactly." Josh agrees. "Women!"“Don’t say it like Josh! It’s not a bad thing being a woman. Try it sometimes.” Lou teases.Milo chuckles to himself as he stares at Lux beginning to mumble words. Lou tries to wipe her tiny rosy cheeks while Milo makes faces at Lux who is staring back at him with furrowed brows. "No love. You can't have that. You're allergic to it." Lou tells Lux.Milo sighs as he stares at his food."So what are you gonna do now?" Lou asked.Milo shakes his
20MILO'S POVDuring our flight to Barcelona, we were busy eating, drinking, talking, joking, and most of all fooling around inside the plane. Rowan, Jasper, and Lucius were smoking for a moment while Silas was busy with his guitar and I just hate when they smoke in here. After having dinner together, we continued making fun of each other and talking about what we needed to see in Barcelona and where we can grab some delicious and authentic Spanish foods. Cracking jokes and telling funny stories were Jasper's things. He is always the one who starts a joke then the rest of us starts laughing with him. I, on the other hand, was on my phone again. I decided to take another look at Lindy's pictures in her gallery because he misses her face and he wanted to see her face again.“Always the vain one," I muttered.I started opening from picture to picture to another picture, where she wears black-rimmed glasses and made funny faces yet still managed to look stunning. Then I stopped at the o
21Lindy sits on her chair as she stares at her notes, but even though she seems to have herself focused on studying, her mind was thinking about Mill. She has been dying to know what he looks like and why he never wants let her know what he looks like. Lindy grabbed her phone and decided to respond to Milo ’s message.Milo ’s phone beeps over the table while he was writing on his notebook. He reaches for it and saw a message from Lindy: “Can you at least give me a clue what you look like?”Milo smiles as he types, “Green.”Lindy’s brows creasing.Like Shrek? -LindyMilo laughs. You’re cute. No, I’m Fiona. -Milo Lindy rolls her eyes while typing, “Come on, you have to give me some clue.”Brown hair with a handsome face. -Milo Milo smirks as he stares at his own message.Lindy groans, “You are so annoying sometimes.”NOT HELPFUL. TTYL, gotta study. -LindyOkay beautiful. -Milo Milo grabs his notebook back and stared at a possible lyric of a new song. He takes his pen and continued
22Lindy was inside her room, studying for her physics exam but she kept glancing and checking at her phone. Milo hasn't texted her since their last conversation since a while ago, of course he was busy with the concert that she didn’t know about and had already fallen asleep in his hotel room after the concert. She went down to the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee to keep her awake at night. She noticed Ted and Avery were at the living room, kissing while the TV was on. Lindy quickly went back to her room and locked her door."Hormones raging." Lindy mumbled.She sat back down on her chair and placed her cup of coffee down. Lindy glanced her watch and it was already eleven in the evening."I wonder what happened to him."Lindy ignored her thoughts about Milo who is currently sleeping to wake up early the next day for another flight. She grabbed her book again and continued reading her notes for her exam the next day but she kept glancing at her phone, still waiting for a text. She fin
23LINDY'S POVI opened my eyes and found a ceiling over me.Where am I?I didn't know what happened to me. All I remember was I was running to my classroom because I was late for my test. Holy cow! I'm late! I hurriedly pulled myself up from this bed and realized that I was inside the school's clinic. I hear voices coming through the door, and I see the school nurse talking to... Oh my god, it's Jake Ashton."Oh thank goodness you're up." the nurse said to me.I smiled at her while glancing over at Jake who was holding my bag, my books and my phone. He smiled at me, holy shit he smiled at me. I tried to stay calm. Relax Lindy."You're lucky enough Jake saw you. He was the one who brought you here." the nurse added.Crap, can I be anymore embarrassed right now?"W-what happened to me?" I asked."You passed out. Are you still feeling dizzy?" the nurse asked while checking my eyes with her mini flashlight.I moved my head sideways. "I'm fine." I answered sheepishly."Show this to your
24NARRATOR'S POVYou obviously can't live without me. -LindyMilo smiled at his phone. He was finally back in London and was at Starbucks together with Lucius and his bodyguard Paul. They bought a quick drink before they start their photo shoot and they all hope it wasn’t going to be another long and tiring day. I guess so, you've got that affect on me lately. How have you been beautiful? -MillWell I feel much better now. I wasn't able to text you because I was at the clinic. -Lindy“Clinic?” Milo exclaims while staring at his phone causing Lucius and Paul to stare at him.Lucius pats Paul’s shoulder, “Don’t worry. He’s got a new ladybug.”Milo pulled his head up to Lucius , “How many times do I have to tell you that she is not an insect.” He says heavily.Lucius and Paul laughs, ignoring Milo .Clinic? What happened to you? -MillI passed out. But I'm much better now. Thanks to my knight in shining armor who brought me to the clinic. -LindyMilo rolled his eyes over his phone whi
25LINDY’S POVIt was on the sign up or log in page. My shoulder slouched as I groan inwardly with disappointment and I felt sad while my head was on my pillow. I was excited to check it but then he has even logged out from his Twitter even before I had his phone. I pulled my head up and texted him.You've logged out from your twitter. Bummer. -LindyReally? Yes!! Oh, I mean too bad, you could've known who I was :( -MillI still have Instagram :p -LindyI hurriedly opened on his Instagram account and was hopeful but then sadly he had logged out from it also! Seriously?! Does Jesus really doesn't want me to see Mill’s face?! Wow!How is it babe? -MillUghhhh... It's logged out too. -LindyHahaha. Thank goodness! -MillYou know, you sound like you don't want me to know who you are. -LindyOh don't worry baby. You'll know who I am this Sunday. Can't wait ;) -MillI rolled my eyes over my phone, still disappointed and I shouldn’t have had set my hopes up in the first place. Suddenly, I r
26MILO'S POVI opened my eyes and noticed that I fell asleep with my phone beside my head. I stretched my arms out as I yawn and sat on my bed feeling a little tired than the usual."What time is it?" I mumbled to myself as I moved my head to my clock and noticed that it was already 3AM. I really did fell asleep, man I’m really tired.Gasp!Wait, I was talking to Lindy earlier right? Damn, that means I had fallen asleep while I was talking to her. I hurriedly grabbed my phone and saw a few text from her which was sent hours ago. I opened her message while rubbing my eye as I yawn again.I knew you fell asleep. Lol. - LindyAnd by the way, you slept talk a while ago. Was I that boring to talk with because you fell asleep? :( -LindyI smiled.It's probably ten in the evening at Canada right now. I hope she's still up.I’m so sorry baby. You weren't boring. I promise. If you were, I wont talk with you so you’re not. I was just really tired with work a while ago babe. -MillI walked my w
E P I L O G U E "Em, just stop screaming, please." Lindy begs. "Think of it as a vacation."VACATION?! Then why can not I use the private jet?! Why do I have to ride a plane in eco... e... Ugh! I do not even want to say the word!""Stop being so overdramatic, Em. We all started somewhere." Milo mocks."I started rich and popular, I am keeping that title." She stood her ground.Milo tilts his head, "Not unless I take that away from you."She gapes.Ezekiel pulled up his pad as soon as he finished writing the words, “Cheer up Em. It is not so bad.” with a smiley face next to the sentence.It annoyed her even more. She loves her twin brother, but she hates the situation that she was in.“Not so bad for you!!” She screams at her brother before she groans. “You can not do this to me!!” Emerald screams like the drama queen she is.Days passed, Emerald found herself arriving in Aidenwoods, New Zealand with two big pieces of luggage and only a hundred pounds in her wallet and the other hund
70‘The famous Beckett duo called EZME called it quits after five years of singing together to their millions of fans due to personal issues, scandals, and health conditions that needed to be taken more seriously. Ezekiel Beckett has been suffering from Muscle Tension Dysphonia which causes the sound and feel of his voice to change due to extreme muscle tension in and around his voice box. As a result, it causes his voice to regularly stop performing more efficiently which broke a lot of his female fans' hearts. The 21-year-old heartthrob and crooner recently lost his voice due to stress, tension, overuse, and overwork and is now going through therapy doing various exercises.On the other hand, Emerald Beckett, who is no longer new to scandals and issues, has gotten some pretty bad press every now and then. The 21-year-old pop star and the other half of the duo called EZME have been known for her horrific diva behavior since her rise in popularity. It has always been rumored that she
69L I N D Y After the honeymoon, I bravely decided to go back to college and finish where I left off. Milo has been very supportive of my decisions and he has been my confidante in almost anything that I do and I want to do. He would confront me about what would be the best and would advise me when things get harder or more confusing. He is just there constantly supporting me which means so much to me after everything.When he asked me if I would move in with him to London, I did not hesitate to agree with him because all my life anywhere with him, whether it is in London, Peru, Spain, South Africa, the Philippines, or anywhere around the world, I would want to be with him. Always. Mom and dad felt sad when they found out that I was moving to another continent which made them feel a little bit emotional before we parted ways. Although they understand that things are going to be different now that I am getting older and wiser and have plans set on ahead of me with Milo. Yet, my paren
68L I N D Y “Welcome home Lindy!!!” I was taken aback as soon as the party poppers popped that came out of nowhere and I see everyone in this house greeting me with smiles on their faces. I see Lucius, Jasper, Silas, and Rowan who came all the way to celebrate this day with me which really means so much to me after what I have been through. It was the kind of support system that I needed after what happened to me and how these people are showing me an unconditional kind of love. These guys, whom I have always considered as my older brothers from other mothers, are all here and this means the world to me. I see Martha who ran towards me in a split second and hugged me tightly with tears flooding in her eyes which made me cry too because this scene is very much making me so emotional. She hugs me tight as she says the words, "I am so glad to see you again. I have missed you. I have missed you so much. I missed you a lot."She makes me bawl my eyes out as I hug onto her tighter, "I m
67L I N D YSaint Francis Sanitarium had a different way of treatment which had been pretty much helpful for my recovery. They also had strict rules about visitors, no one was really allowed to see the patients who are under treatments like me to avoid problems, complications, and miscalculations. There were no cellphones allowed inside and Wi-Fi as well to avoid any social media. Although they allowed gifts from the outside, it was still hard not to be able to see everyone. I didn’t let my negative emotions get the worst of me because I had to be strong for myself and my kids and for everyone else who is waiting for me to head out of this mental facility. I faced this battle head on and even though it was hard for me to accept the changes that I have had, emotionally and mentally, I am still very thankful for the support that I am getting from my family, friends, and of course Milo.Milo has been sending me hand written letters every day which is something I always look forward to
66M I L OWhat did she mean by that?Did she mean it literally?Silence, there was silence between us and I was just utterly and indescribably confused. She didn’t answer while her eyes were looking all over the entire house. Her eyes looked like she was searching for something inside the house and at the same time, she looked like she was in distraught. She looked so lost, sad, and completely puzzled by her own thoughts inside her head.“Are you alright baby?” I holler.She nods and looks back at me, “Yes. Just…. Just a little… awake.”I tried to ignore what I heard from her about hearing them in her head and just walked towards her, “I thought you fell asleep?”She shakes her head, “I can’t.”“Did you even try?”She nods. “Yes. These days it’s just hard for me to sleep.”“Should we visit the doctor?”“No.” Her voice was firm. “No need for that.”I take her hand to mine, “Hey, let’s go back to sleep. Shall we?”She nods and smiles before we walked up to the bedroom.I still hear the
65M I L OThey were so tiny.Very tiny.So fragile. So delicately adorable. I stare at them from outside the glass window and my heart swells with these crazy emotions that are building up inside me the more I stare at how tiny and angelic they looked. Staring at them, I did not know that I could love more my sweet Lindy for carrying my little soldiers who are now battling with their own lives. I had no idea that these tiny creatures would actually make me feel much more whole in some way. I glance at the tubes and machines that were surrounding them to help them survive and grow and I know they are fighters and that they will grow stronger. I know. I know they will. I watch as their chests go up and down while they were breathing as they were moving their tiny hands around and subtly kicked their small feet. It was amazing how they looked and how their tiny movements could actually surprise me and amaze me at the same time. Absentmindedly, I am staring at them with a smile on m
64M I L OI laugh humorlessly as I shake my head sideways, not wanting to believe what I have just heard. No, this cannot be possible. There is absolutely no way. No. I had no idea that Ricky was this selfish and this heartless with everything that had happened. He is and has always been only thinking about himself and no other else. He only and always wants to save himself from everything when the going gets rough then runs away and hides like a frightful little child and pass the blame onto others so he can clear his name.This man is despicable, absolutely and horrifyingly greedy.“I am so sorry.” Ricky apologizes but the more he says it the more it makes me angry.“Ricky! How could you so selfish?!” Gwyneth screams at him..“Of course!” I exclaimed. “Of course you would say it’s me! You freaking asshole!” I pressed my clenched fist against the center of my forehead. I groan in frustration and in anger because I want to hit this person so badly. I want to hurt him as hard as I ca
63M I L OEver since my argument with Gwyneth, we never really talked as much as we used to. I understand why she was feeling that way and I understand why she had avoided me since she hated what I have done. Of all people, I thought she would be the one who would understand me because she is my sibling, but then I was wrong.She made me feel even worst. I tried to understand where her anger was coming from and obviously, she was gutted that I said and did those things to Jolene. I know she could not believe me that I treated Jolene that way because she has always hated it when I do things that hurt women since I was brought up by women too.I wish my words could change anything to what she sees me now but then I know I can never take back the things I did and the things I said to her.Sometimes I wish she could have understood me and why I had to do it. The night before the band’s world tour started, someone came to my house late at night and rang the doorbell many times which woke
