CHAPTER 44—Trapped

Rain's Point of View

Ali's face CANNOT be painted while driving a car. I didn't scream anymore when he told Manny that I was going with him in his car. Even though the air conditioner is cold, I feel like I'm sweating because of the nervousness. I know I'm not doing anything wrong but Ali seems to have a different aura now.

He frowned and looked seriously at the road. All attention is on driving.

I tried to get his attention by knocking on the window but he didn't even look. I just snorted.

"Where?" I called him.

"Hmm?" That was my boyfriend's only response.

I just frowned then violently blew out air. "Are you mad at me?" I will ask.

"No."

"They say no, but you're not paying attention to me." I folded my arms and looked out the window. I wonder what could be the reason why Ali is like this to me. "You should, when you have a problem with me, talk to me so I know what my fault is."

As a matter of fact, I should be the one to sulk because he left suddenly. I prepared

    CHAPTER 45—JealousyRain's Point of ViewI DO NOT remember how Ali and I got home. I'm still shaking with fear because of what happened. We are now in the living room and mommy calms me down.My daddy and Ali are investigating what happened at the restaurant. I heard that they are getting a copy of all the CCTV cameras in the whole mall."Rain, do you want to go up to your room? It would be better if you rest your mind and body," mom suggested.I shook my head. "I don't want to, mom. I'm scared," I answered, still shaking.She held my hand. "Rain, no one will threaten or hurt you here. This is our house, right?" Mom said that softly.I just looked at her then spoke, "W-who is that, mom? Did someone trip me?"My parents and Ali looked at each other. There is a trace of pity on their faces for me. I bowed down. To this day I can't believe that that happened to me. What happened before on the highway is one of our puzzles. Especially what happened earlier."Rain, it's better if you rest.

    CHAPTER 46—Wife MaterialRain's Point of ViewTHE NEXT DAY I woke up early. I will cook breakfast for Ali. Today I made sure that my boyfriend was still at home before I cooked because my effort might be wasted again.I went to his room earlier. I had a duplicate key with me so I could see that he was still fast asleep. I smiled in a lame way when I remembered that I had caught Ali without a top.Her blanket was removed and revealed his beautiful and petted gym body. My throat felt dry when I saw the appearance of my boyfriend in my mind.His biceps are perfect and seem to be hard to hold. His abs, it's eight. And his chest has little curls that seem to be nice to touch.I shook my head and scolded myself for thinking so freely. I felt my cheeks heat up."Hey, are you alright?"I almost jumped when I heard Ali's voice behind me. "Y-yeah." I averted my eyes from him because he might read what I was thinking and what else he might think of me."What are you doing?""I-I'm going to cook

    CHAPTER 47—At The BotiqueRain's Point of ViewWHEN I FINISHED eating, I said goodbye to the companions who were going up to the room first. I suddenly felt really bad because of what Ali said and even though I wasn't sure what my boyfriend meant, my mind suddenly felt pressure."Rain," Ali called me.I forced myself to smile. "Y-yes?""What's wrong? You were okay earlier, huh?" he asked and held me by the arm where I had splashes of oil. "Does this make you feel bad?"I shook my head and withdrew my arm from Ali's grip. "I'm fine. Don't worry. I'm probably just sleepy.""I'll take you to your room." He held me by the waist. I just let him go and didn't argue. I know that I will not win my boyfriend either.When I entered the room, I was not surprised when he was also in my room. Ali approached the windows to ensure security. He faced me."Are you going to sleep?" he asked and I nodded. He came closer and kissed me on the forehead. He hugged me afterwards. "When you need me, call me.

    CHAPTER 48—Kean & AlionaRain's Point of ViewIT CAME TO SIX P.M. We had just arrived from shopping. Aliona and Azariah immediately left Ali and I to dress for dinner. Von also broke up with us earlier at the mall and said that he would be next to our house.I furrowed my brow as I looked at our garden, which was mostly made up of tables and chairs. I thought we were the only ones having dinner but why does it seem like a big party will happen later?I felt an arm lightly reach me from behind. When I looked back, I immediately smiled when I saw that it was my boyfriend, Ali, who was also looking at what I was looking at earlier."How many guests are mommy and daddy expecting and it looks like someone is getting married here?" I asked while just waking up around.Ali shrugged his shoulders then took my hand. "I have no idea, but it looks like a lot, doesn't it?I nodded. Even the security is tighter and I see more and more guards wearing blue uniforms walking around the house. I looked

We left the two who immediately talked but I never heard of it again."Ah, Rain," Jade began but her eyes were already on Gianna. She looked at me after a while. "How are you? I heard about what happened to you at the restaurant.""I'm fine, Jade. I'm still a little shocked by what happened, but dad is already working on a way to catch the person behind that incident.""It's good. Gianna and I know you're having a hard time adjusting to what's going on, but just take it easy. Don't worry. They're doing everything to protect you." She slightly squeezed my hand.I can really feel her concern for me. "Thank you, Jade. I knew that." I smiled at her."Good. That's right."I looked around to look for Ali but I couldn't see him."Jade, I'll just look for Ali.""Sure!"I turned my back on her. The guests have my attention now that's why I wonder. I smile at them even though I'm starting to feel

    CHAPTER 50—ReasonsRain's Point of ViewWE HAD JUST finished eating when my cell phone rang. I excitedly picked it up thinking it might be Ali but I was stunned when I saw the caller's name was Von.Mommy frowned when she noticed that I wasn't answering that."Why, Rain? Who is that?" she asked. She accompanied me to eat so I wouldn't be sad."It's Von.""That new acquaintance of yours who is your schoolmate?"I nodded. "Yes, mom.""He was also here the night Ali proposed to you, wasn't he?""Yes." I looked at the cell phone that still hasn't stopped ringing. "Just excuse me, mommy. I'll just answer this." My mommy nodded so I answered the call. "Hello?""Rain! How are you? It's good that you answered my call. I've been worried about you since last night."I took a deep breath before answering him. "I-I'm fine. Don't worry.""Are you sure? When you want someone to talk to, I'm right here, huh?" he said with a hint in his voice that he was really concerned about me.I smiled somehow. "

    CHAPTER 51Rain's Point of ViewWHEN I woke up the next day, I was even more surprised to see two maids already arranging the food in one part of my room. I frowned because I could already smell our breakfast which made me hungry."Good morning, Miss Rain," a maid greeted me."Good morning. Why is there something like that?" I even taught them what they were doing.The two maids smiled while looking at me. "Sir Ali prepared it for you.""For me?" I thought because there was nothing like this in our conversation. "But…"The maids and I turned around when Ali entered the door. He immediately smiled at me then came to the side of the bed. He kissed me on the forehead then sat next to me. "Good morning. It's good and you're awake. It's just the right time that I sent breakfast here.""What is it for?""Nothing. I just want to eat with you this morning.""Hmm… Did you do something wrong?"His eyes widened. "Nothing. Get up there. I'll eat breakfast with you."I didn't even speak up to prot

    CHAPTER 52—Who is she?Rain's Point of ViewI just gasped when we got to Ali's amusement park. I really did not expect to be taken to this place. No one else knows that I love going to this place because when I went to the amusement park, I was young and mom could still walk well."Are you happy?" Ali asked why I turned to him."Yes but how did you know that I like it here?"He smiled at me. "One of the things your abuela bought me was to take you to the amusement park."I was stunned and sadness immediately enveloped my chest. "Is that true?""Yes." He let out a deep breath."Do you know that he bought a lot from me before he disappeared?"I just looked at him while listening to what he was saying. My heart is filled with sadness. I miss my abuela and even if I try to stop it, the tears really come to my side. I avoided looking at Ali and simply wiped my eyes."Once, he also told me to take you to South Korea, Canada and even Japan."I laughed. "Why?""So that you can visit beautiful

    CHAPTER 108—Who's Behind It?Rain's Point of ViewWhile Von and Azariah were grilling and Ali was playing guitar. We both sing and I can truly say that Ali's voice is beautiful. I was embarrassed because my voice wasn't that good, but he tried to make me sing."You have a beautiful voice, Rain. Who said you don't have a good voice?" asked Azariah. It seems that he has been hearing me say that my voice is not good.I didn't answer right away. I honestly don't remember who told me when I was young that my voice was not beautiful. They said it's better if I just dance because my body is a bit soft."I don't remember who Uncle Eliseo told me or who he was talking to at that time. I was still young when they told me that. Then those who heard laughed." I don't want to say these things anymore because it's been a long time. I'm still young."Ah, so it's Uncle. Maybe he didn't want you anymore that's why he said that.""Maybe he's just joking," I said.Azariah stopped turning the squids that

There was a tinge of concern on his face as he looked at me. I frowned. "What's the problem?" I will ask."You are the one I asked. What's the problem? Why do you look like that?” Ali even held my cheek and squeezed it a little. "You look like you just got back from crying. Did you cry?" he asked me.I smiled at him, still seeing the white teeth. "Yes, I am really fine. Don't worry about me." I took his hand from his grip on me."Why is that red and it looks like you just got back from crying?""Nothing. Believe me. Azariah and I just talked and my heart was touched by him. That's because my cousin is so smart. I have nothing more to say to him.”Ali nodded slowly. "You're right there. What Aliona and Apollo's attitude was bad, Azariah was kind. And another thing is that I can see how much he loves Von.""They're both sweet too, aren't they?" I

    CHAPTER 106—Thankful and GratefulRain's Point of ViewWe were very happy with the sea water while we were on the boat. There was a steward who maneuvered the boat so that we could sail smoothly in the ocean.Ali was next to me as I leaned on him slightly. He holds my hands. It should be so peaceful. Fortunately, the boat we were on had a roof so we were not directly exposed to the sun."Are you okay?" Ali asked me.I didn't answer right away. I've been bothered by things for a while now but I don't want to ask Ali. Do I feel that he will get annoyed with me if I keep asking him questions? All the things that happen to us make me question why it happens.I sighed before trying to smile at him. "I'm fine. Nothing will happen if I'm not going to be okay, right?”Ali squeezed my hand. "That's right. Whatever you're thinking, put your worries away because I won't leave you. You and your family."I looked him in the eyes. "I know that. I also know that you will do everything just to make s

    CHAPTER 105—ExcitementRain's Point of View"So, Daddy said we can't leave the rest house for now. It's like we're locked down, right?" I asked as I held Ali's arm. We walk on the beach watching the sunrise.Azariah and Von were with us earlier but they said goodbye to go to the gym so Ali and I continued walking. From a distance we could see the guards watching over us."Yes. That's how it is. Such an idea is boring and annoying, but we need it to ensure that you and your entire family are safe."I leaned my head on Ali's shoulder. "I understand. Thank you, Ali?”"For what?""For taking care of me and my family.""You are always welcome. I will do everything to ensure your safety." I felt him kiss my forehead so I closed my eyes.It feels so good to be cared for and protected by the person I love. I can't ask for anything else because I feel his love for me.“Would you like us to have breakfast? The cook at the rest house must have cooked." Earlier, before we left, I talked to our co

    CHAPTER 104—He's Back!Rain's Point of View"Have you talked to Ali again?" I asked while we were in the middle of dinner. To be honest, we all had almost no appetite to eat. The food on the plates doesn't move because they seem to be touching each other."Not yet. Von said the last time we talked earlier that their phones were low on battery. They will go out to buy a charger,” answered Azariah."Do you think, Dad, can they come here to the rest house?" I asked while my attention was on daddy. Even my companions are also looking here.Before dad bowed and he bowed and took a deep breath. He looked at me. "It is possible, Rain, but they themselves said that they will not come here. Because they need to be sure that no one can follow them. Ali and Von just want us to be on the list, especially you and Azariah.” Dad exchanged glances with my cousin and me.I felt Azariah grab me with a free hand that wasn't holding the cutlery."Your daddy is right, Rain," said mom. He gave me a smile t

  • La Arma's Heir   CHAPTER 103—Fear

    CHAPTER 103—FearRain's Point of ViewI was so nervous to do what Elise and I had planned. Azarian also helped us and Von knew the plan. Von was our helper to somehow keep Ali away and not notice what we were planning to do. I took a deep breath. I took a shower and put on light makeup. I dried my hair with a hair blower and just put a gold hair clip on it.I was in front of the mirror trying to study the smile. No matter what I do, I smile and the nervous feeling is still on my face. A part of my heart is also afraid that the plans might come to nothing. Maybe Ali is mad at me and won't accept my apology.When I found out about Elise's true personality, I felt very guilty. I feel like I have a very bad girlfriend. The type that I don't trust the most loved one who did nothing but ensure my safety. My heart sank again because I felt sorry for Ali. I even asked myself if it was worth it for Ali to love me even though I hurt him because I was jealous.Elise says that my feelings are val

  • La Arma's Heir   CHAPTER 102—Elise's Plan

    CHAPTER 102—Elise's PlanRain's Point of ViewAs dad said, we will tie up at the rest house first. Our other relatives didn't know that, even Aunty Merceditas. Azariah just got why I can say that that house is really secret. As far as I can remember, I have only been there twice.That rest house is nice. It's on the side of the beach and it's quiet. There aren't many houses around us so it's like that. Also far from civilization. When we got out of the car, I was so amazed.I rode in dad and mom's car while Von, Azariah and Elise rode in Ali's car. Earlier Dad forced me to ride there but I refused. I really don't want to see or be with Ali. We didn't break up but I think that's the way it is.Am I hurt? Of course. Just last night I cried and cried and fell asleep doing that. When I woke up earlier, my eyes were very swollen. I wanted to laugh because we didn't break up but I cried. It's my fault because I'm stubborn. I don't listen to Ali's reasons but it's not because I can invalida

    CHAPTER 101—SpaceRain's Point of ViewBecause my ankle was swollen due to a pinched nerve, I really had to be given first aid. I just cried when the doctor tried to move my leg. Maybe it took pity on me, it just let me rest and calm down. Fortunately, Azariah doesn't let go of me and I cry to him. My leg was bandaged and then I was helped to position myself on top of the bed.Dad got a private room and there was a security guard assigned outside the door. The security is very tight to prevent what happened earlier in our house.Because the doctor gave me medicine, I fell asleep. It's a good thing because somehow I didn't feel the pain in my foot. It is elevated so that it cannot be moved. When I woke up I had a faint voice that was heard in the room where I was. When I opened my eyes, I immediately saw Ali talking to Von and Azariah. Elise was also there and sitting. Ali and Elise are not next to each other but I'm annoyed. I got annoyed.I moved and tried to get up but my leg hurt c

    CHAPTER 100—Loud Gunshots Rain's Point of ViewSince I wasn't in the mood earlier after working out, I didn't feel like eating breakfast either. I didn't go with my parents because Ali, Elise, Von and Azariah were with them. Mom just sent food to my room but I didn't touch it. It's just on the table and I have no intention of eating. I only drank the milk and I'm fine with that.I just left my room bored. First, I will air in the garden where it is windy at this time. I brought my phone as well as the book I was reading so I could do something there.I have made up my mind that if Ali ever approaches me to talk to me, I will still not talk to him and ignore him. To be honest, I miss my boyfriend a lot but every time I think about Elise being with him now, I feel like I'm wondering if he still loves me.Maybe I'm being dramatic but that's what I wanted to ask him. Even though Ali says that he hasn't changed and I'm still his priority, I don't see that.When I got to the garden I sat d
