CHAPTER 49—The ProposalRain's Point of ViewI WAS ASHAMED not to give it time so I went with Jade. 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 53—Her Mom's VisitorRain's POV I smiled when I saw Ali naked while fixing mommy's plants in the garden.I remember the first time we both met the night my abuela passed out. I swallowed and felt my face turn red when I saw Ali's sexy and beautiful body shape. His abs are almost shiny because of the sweat that is hit by the sun's rays.I was about to drop the tray when I was startled by the call of mommy who was already looking at me. She was sitting in a wheelchair while setting up the table where I should place the carrying tray."Rain, I've been calling you for a while but you're not paying attention to me. Are you okay?" she asked, looking at me.I turned for a moment to Ali who seemed to not be able to hear or see us as mother and daughter. I look back here. "Y-yes, mommy." I went even closer to place the tray on the bottom of the table. I also fixed myself.It was my mommy who removed the plates and glasses from the tray and moved them to the table. "I was wondering how
CHAPTER 54—Same BirthdaysRain's Point of ViewI did NOT know what to do when I saw Von approaching us. He had a wide smile on his lips as he approached me and mom. Mommy waved at this so my friend's smile grew wider."Hi, Von! It's good that you accepted my invitation to come here for lunch," said my mommy. "Sit down." He pointed to an empty chair on the other side and I was on the other side. Mind you, it's between me and Von and Ali and I are almost next to each other."Can I refuse you? Then I know that your cooking is delicious, auntie.""It's you. How are you? I don't think you've been back here since you went for a walk." My mommy has a touch of sullenness."I was busy preparing my papers so I didn't understand anything.""You're a transferee, aren't you?""Yes, auntie.""Is there anything else you need our help with? Just tell me, okay?"Von smiled sweetly. "Oh, it's okay. It's embarrassing." It looked at me. "How are you?""I-I'm fine.""Really? It's fine. I'm sorry if I didn
CHAPTER 55— Quality TimeRain's Point of ViewVON NEVER stayed at our house for long. He said goodbye right away that there will be more to do regarding his school papers, so my mommy agreed. I was looking for Ali because he didn't come back to the garden earlier. I found him inside the library with my daddy talking about something. I knocked there first to get their attention."Yes, Rain?" asked my daddy sitting on the swivel chair. Ali was sitting on a chair in front of the table.I slowly entered and exchanged glances with the two. "Ahm, I was going to say goodbye to you, daddy.""Are you leaving?" Ali asked me. His forehead is no longer wrinkled and his eyebrows no longer meet while looking at me. He still held my hand.“No. I can't walk now.""What would you say then, Rain?" my father asked.I turned to Ali who was also obviously interested in what I had to say. I removed the blockage from my throat. "Ahm, I just wanted to borrow Ali from you, daddy, but if you have something imp
CHAPTER 56—JealousyRain's Point of ViewI wasn't even surprised when Ali chatted with me.Ali: Why are you still awake?Rain: I can't sleep, that's why I just uploaded our pictures.Ali: I saw it. Our pictures are beautiful.I smiled but that's how surprised I was when I saw that his profile picture had changed. When I visited Ali's account, I automatically smiled and bit my lower lip because of the overwhelming joy I felt. It was a picture of the two of us while we were on top of the Wheel of Fate. I smile beautifully while Ali stares at me.It seems like little butterflies want to escape from my stomach. I adjusted my seat and it had a heart reaction.Ali: Is my profile picture okay?Rain: Sure. That's sweet, huh!I thought that our profile pictures should also be changed to be a couple, so I bought a nice picture. I chose the Flying Fiesta picture with Ali on my shoulder. In less than a minute, Ali's heart immediately reacted to that. After that was his chat that almost made me me
