They were teasing me no end, even after we returned home. I just close my eyes every time they laugh. I'm not looking for Luca. It’s Luca’s guest I am looking for and not Luca. When we got home, I immediately cooked and let Eve play in the living room with Atlas.
Samantha said that she would go to town with Shia to buy something in the market, so I was assigned to take care of the children. While I was cooking, Luca suddenly came. "Can I come in?" He said. I was surprised when he suddenly arrived. But I let him in right away. What is his business here? It must be important. "I'm sorry, sir, Luca, if the house is messy." I said because the toys were scattered on the floor. The two children did not care about Luca's arrival. They just took a glance at him and immediately started playing again. "No, it's okay." He smiled and sat down in the chair. I excused myself from Luca for a moment becSamantha did not come to Luca’s house today because Atlas had a cough and needed to be taken care of. She offered to leave Eve with her, so now I work today without bringing my daughter. I was with Nay Rilang cleaning inside because Shia and Gege were ordered to bring the food to the farm.I saw Hiro talking to Luca. When our eyes meet, I can see his stare. He didn't do that just once, but instead, he did it five more times.I just didn't speak and chose to ignore it. I would love to skin him alive for what he did to me in the river, but when I saw him, pissed at what I did, somehow I felt like
It was late at night, Hiro and I went to the pharmacy to buy medicine for Atlas. I am very complacent now after he told me everything. And I am thankful enough, and I have fallen in love with him even more, that he always puts the welfare of us first.Without him, we might have lost Eve. 6 years is not that long to wait, and to hide in my biological mother’s name is easy to do, and I’m willing to do it to save my daughter. I am very confident that we’ll be safe because I trusted him. I trusted Hiro very much.
8 in the evening, Eve and I were already in our room. She was now sleeping peacefully. I was just folding the clothes I washed when Hiro suddenly came. Since this is not s 2 storey house and it is plain and simple with no fences, Hiro was able to enter my room without any difficulty.My eyes widened as I looked at him. What is he doing here? He went straight to me and kissed me
"What happened?" I asked Samantha nervously when I saw her in the kitchen, pale and gasping for breath. Agui left already, and everyone is outside. When our eyes met, She tried to smile, but the nervousness reflected on her face could not leave my eyes."Andrea, where’s my daughter? Where’s Atlas?" She asked, panicking.
When we got back inside, all eyes were on us. Luca was also wondering why Hiro and I were outside together but I just ignored it and immediately looked at Shia who was frowning while carrying the two bags. Agui followed her who’s obviously not on mood."Let's go Andrea," Shia said and immediately led me out of Luca's house. I turned to Hiro for a moment before we left the house."I'm really disgusted with that arrogant." My friend said with disgust as she looked at me back at Luca’s big house. I frowned at her."Why are you so annoyed?""I'm disgusted with his face!""Are you pregnant?"“What !” she asked in shock. Maybe she's having a baby so she's annoyed with Agui's face. It’s maybe a craving. Agui's handsome so..."Well-"“Stop it Andrea! You’re talking nonsense.” I laughed at what she said. I even saw how she act as if like she wanted to puke."You! All right, I think that you really like Agui. ”“Yucks! That’s gross Andrea!!”This woman is really impossible. Seriously? She’s ove
The night of the accident (Liro’s childhood)"Skinny! You're so thin! Loser!" heard by the children while facing Hiro's slender body hidden behind the healthy Liro. Lhera's two twin children are only seven years old with her late husband, Antonio Regis."Leave my brother!" Liro shouted at the bullies that they were not spared. Fortunately, their mother suddenly came and immediately helped them to get rid of the bullies."Mom!" Hiro's cries echoed on the side of the road as they looked at their mother, who was pale and weak from exhaustion."Shh, mommy is here. Don’t cry anymore,” Lhera hushed Hiro. Her husband just died last 3 months, so she has to work for her two children. With the amount she has to pay from their debt, her body can hardly cope with the tiredness and wakefulness."Let's go home, c'mon Liro," the young Liro, following behind his mother and brother while looking worriedly at Lhera. Even though he and Hiro are the same age, he is the older brother here for he thinks li
I was waiting for Lianne in their living room because she was just coming home from school. Her parents are not here because of a business trip, so I am with their maids. Later, Cassandra came in, and it looked like she had just gotten back from work because she was still in business attire."Good afternoon, ma'am Cassandra. Do you want to eat? I'll cook you something.""No, thanks. I'm full. I ate earlier before I went home."I just stared at her as she happily talked to their maid. When our eyes met, she just nodded and went upstairs.I was shocked to see that she had not even spoken to me. She is really very wild. I think it's her thing to greet people with her freaking nod.Ten minutes had passed and Lianne was still not coming. Cassandra came down from above, and I saw that she had changed her clothes."Yaya, please prepare Liro a snack." She came over to me and sat down in front of me.For the first time, she talked to me about something that she doesn't always do."Is Lianne st
Cassandra and I continued our marriage. For the past 2 months, I have done nothing but be a bad husband to her. I also said those horrible words to her. All I did was to hurt her, even though she was innocent and kind to me. But even then, I didn’t see her get mad at me.She still takes care of me. In fact, she’s really perfect. She's a wife material and very careful that every time I go home I have nothing else to do but eat and rest. She's so perfect, she's so very caring that made me push her away. I was afraid that I might forget Lianne forever."You know what, Li, everyone here envies you." I frowned at what Brandon had said. Why would they envy me?"Why?""Your wife prepared your lunch. It's delicious and very laborious. It's a shame you don't eat it," partly true because what Cassandra prepared for me, I gave to others."Why should I eat it? I’m sure it’s awful," I replied, and looked back to my work."Appreciate her, Liro. She is not at fault, but you are punishing her. I have
Hiro and Cassandra ride in a truck as they drive down the road away from Acuesa's ancestral house. Eve fell asleep in Cassandra's arms while she and Hiro sat quietly in the back of the truck. Hiro held Cassandra's hand. She looked at Hiro and saw the sadness in his eyes. Hiro smiled at her and kissed Cassandra on the forehead. "I'm sorry," said Cassandra. Hiro smiled at her and shook his head. "It's not your fault. I keep in touch with Agui so I know everything.” "But, our arrival is the reason why we are leaving now." Cassandra said feeling guilty. Hiro kissed her on the lips as Cassandra's tears fell. “I'm going to die if you don't come. You and our daughter save me." Hiro said and wiped the tears from Cassandra's eyes. "But Hiro-" "It's fine, love. I trust my brothers. I dedicate my years for the family, this time, I choose you and our daughter.” Cassandra was stunned and couldn't stop the tears in her eyes. She buried her face in Hiro and silently cried while hugging her dau
I'm glad to see Eve smiling now and playing with her father. Only their laughter filled the garden. They must have been playing for almost two hours.I was able to cook and everything, but they are still playing. So did Hiro. Sometimes, I see him emotional while looking at his daughter laughing."Mama! Papa is funny," my daughter shouted with a smile as she ran away from Hiro. The smile on my lips disappeared in shock.I also saw Hiro stop running when he heard what Eve said to him. My eyes widened as I looked at the two of them. I do not know what to do. As things happened so fast, all I could do was watch him.He was stunned for a moment and turned to me in disbelief. "Dad?" I immediately called Eve. He immediately came to me. "Come in first, love." She slowly nodded and went inside. When I looked at Hiro, there was something on his face that seemed to be struggling. I looked away. "She called m-me papa?""H-Hiro-""I-I'm s-sorry," I was surprised by what he said. What does he mean?
I was outside in Eve's room. I call her to come to me. She didn't want to leave the room because she was still sulking at her dad. "Come, love. Join me in the garden." I told her. "Mama!" She grumbled because she didn't want to come. I frowned because she would just lock herself in the room again all night and playing mobile games. It’s not good to her health. "Alright. Come on. That’s enough. Listen to mama." I said and forced her. I don't know why but people left the house one by one to the point that only me, my daughter and Hiro were left. Even Lianne and her daughter are not here. I don't know if I'll be happy or weirded out. I chose not to mind it and forced Eve to come with me. Since I am the only one left here, I will also take care of the chores here inside the house. When we arrived at the garden, I could see the face of my daughter who was surprised while looking at the butterflies in a large ward with flowers covered with net. "Wow mama! It's beautiful!" My daughter
Eve fell asleep on my lap. I don't know what will happen tomorrow and the day after. She is too young to understand everything.When I left the room, my sister exposed herself to me. She stood in front with her back against the wall. I looked at her without emotion."Even if you look different, you can't hide me your true identity.""What are you doing here?" I thought she was going to answer my question but she just passed me and entered the room where my dautghter was sleeping. I hurriedly followed her inside."What-" I couldn't finish what I was going to say when Lianne suddenly hugged me."I'm sorry, Cassandra." I looked at her in wonder. I don't know why she is apologizing to me now."Sorry for what I did to you." I was shocked by what she said and was not able to move immediately. I didn't know what to say so I kept silent.“Trust me. Everything will be fine from now on.” She added. I was just stunned until she got out of my room.Confused, I followed her to hopefully talk to he
Later on, when I had finished everything my work, I went upstairs to get Eve.I saw her sleeping at her father's lap while Hiro was peacefully watching his daughter sleeping peacefully.When he saw me, I immediately approached him to pick up Eve."I'm sorry," I said. He just smiled at me. His smile is so peaceful. Here is the weight on my chest again as I look at him. I want him back to normal. God, help Hiro."Mama," my daughter woke up. When she saw that I was carrying her, she immediately turned to her father."I'm sorry, I fell asleep." Eve said apologetically."It's fine, princess." He's still the same. Even though he lost his memory again, he still treated our daughter like a princess.Get well, Hiro. We are waiting for you.I was about to say goodbye, when suddenly a child ran towards Hiro."Daddy!" The girl shouted. Eve and I watched as the little girl climbed into bed to hug Hiro."Daddy, I missed you." We all heard what the little girl said. But I was worried about my daught
When we arrived at their house, we were immediately greeted by servants who were new to me. So it’s true that all the staffs here were new."Are you the new maid?" The old woman said with a grim face. I nodded and held Eve tightly. When she looked at my daughter, I felt Eve hiding in my back.“Come in,” she said.We followed her inside. There were many armed men inside even in the the outside. Everyone was staring at us as we entered. Eve and I just kept quiet until we got to the maid's quarter which is our room.As a personal maid, it's okay to bring a child as long as we can't go out until the contract ends.My job here won’t last long. It’s only 4 months because it is said that they will returned Hiro to Europe. So that means, I only have four months to escape Hiro."I don't like stabborn child here so you better behave," she said to my daughter. Before we went here, I already told Eve what she’s going to do. She also knows who we came here for.My daughter is a smart kid so I knew
After a month, we were in Hiro's ancestral house with my daughter. A lot happened back then. This is all possible because of Luca. Without his help, we would surely have a hard time here. ------ As we prepared, Agui arranged the things I needed to bring for my trip to the ancestral house of Acuesa. I'm also arranging my belongings so that everything is ready by the time I leave. I will leave Eve with Shia at Hacienda Seya because it is too dangerous for me to take her to the Ancestral house where her dad is. "Are you ready?" Liro asked as he confronted me. I nodded. In the past weeks I already readied myself for this day. "You know what to do, Cassandra." He said. I know that. I have been preparing it for so long. I just need to know the condition of Hiro, if he's okay and if possible, I will take him out there. We will escape together. "Cas," I looked at Lihiro. He's worried as he looked at me. I approached him. “Be careful,” I whispered. He hugged me. "Tell my brother, he
When I wake up, it's already morning. I first saw Shia looking sadly at me. I got up immediately but I was still weak so I lay down again."Don't get up first. Just take a rest more." She said. When I looked around the room, I wondered why I couldn’t see my daughter."Where is Eve?" I tried to stand up to look for my daughter but Shia stopped me."Don't worry. She's at school. She's on her way home now." She said to me.I looked at Shia in surprise. Why at school? Didn't we just go home earlier?"You maybe wondering but you've been unconscious for three days." My eyes widened when I looked at her. Three days?Sam suddenly entered. She was carrying another bowl with soup."You're awake," she said then put the soup down next to me. I also saw Stallion next to her. When our eyes met, I saw him looking at me sadly.He came over and climbed into bed. He immediately hugged me. When I last saw him, he was like eleven that time. Now, he is quite big and tall."Don't be sad big sis," he said
I knew Lihiro and Stallion were following us. He was silent earlier when I said that in front of him.Surprisingly, the two children are also quiet now. They didn't ask about it before.I didn't even speak until we got to our house. Sam and Liro were already there. I wonder why. What happened? I thought they will took so long in the hospital. The car is parked near the house.Eve and Atlas got out of the tricycle. I just paid and carried their bags. "Mommy, are you okay?" I looked at Atlas. I smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek."Yes, love. Mommy is okay." I answered. It was obvious on his face that he was not convinced by what I said. He hugged me tightly."I love you, Mommy. Don't be sad.""Thank you, love. I love you too." Atlas smiled then entered the house first. When I looked at Eve, I saw she was looking at me intently."Mama, you're not okay." She commented."Are you thinking what that man said? You're talking about papa, right? I hate papa, mama." My eyes widened when
