Love Me. Hate Me. Thirty Five
Flashback Years Ago... - “Yo Cath, where's Sandra?" She looked up from her canvas and scrunched her nose to Danial as he entered as if he owned the place. “Sandra is resting in our room." Actually Sandra was given her own room but Catherine forced her that she must sleep beside Sandra. The older girl Catherine looked up into just giggled and said yes. Sandra had been staying with her until her graduation. Catherine felt sad for her Sandra and a little bit angry to herself because this is all she can do to help her best friend but Sandra had insisted that it was too much. But oh well, her two best friends are leaving for Paris 3 weeks from now and even though it was making her sad that she will be the only one separated from them for a year. Catherine though consoled herself by the thought that it was just a year, it's not like she's not going to visit them or them visiting her. Danial nodded, putting down his bag on the couch and pulling out his camera. He plopped on t

“That can't be right." Danial frowned, looking down to the pictures. “Sandra, can't your eyes look any more dead?" Sandra frowned and crawled towards him. The two of them sitting on the floor in the middle of their shared flat. “What are you taking about?" “I have a beautiful muse with a beautiful smile and with the coldest eyes I've ever seen." He peered to her. “Why is that?" Sandra blinked down to her smiling pictures and stared to Danial in confusion. “What do you mean? Your boss totally said he loves the pictures; he said your shots are perfect and that I looked so happy... I am happy in the pictures." She emphasized. He blinked then glanced back to the picture. “You were happy?" Sandra nodded. He tilted his head. “Mybe it's just me. Maybe because I know you too much. I know when you're happy and when you're sad.” Sandra laughed. “It's just you." Danial frowned more. “Are you sure? You really look sad in this pictures." Then his eyes narrowed. “It must be because yo

It was cold and Sandra pulled her coat closer to her shivering body. She frowned as she stood tip-toing outside the Jewelry boutique where Danial went off too. He demanded she stayed outside though but it was so cold. The man was clearly not thinking logically at the moment, Sandra mused to herself. Sandra took her phone out and stared to the screen worriedly. Catherine insisted that she'd go sightseeing alone. When Sandra protested, Danial didn't even argue and instead told his girlfriend. “Go. Spread your wings. Be free." And he was smirking proudly when he said that. Sandra couldn't understand the two sometimes, but Catherine could snuck out of their shared room in the middle of the night and crawl back to the bed above Sandra's before six in the morning. Sandra wasn't stupid not to understand what's going on or where Catherine was sleeping. She started when she felt warmth embracing her back. She looked look up and realized Danial had wrapped his coat to her. He took off h

Sandara opened her eyes, the white ceiling greeting her. She blinked a couple of times. “Sandra." Someone tugged on her hand, wrapping it around and firm and warmer hand. She turned her head on her side. Shawn let out a sighed, he smiled. “Thank God, you're awake." He kissed the back of her hand and smiled to her. “What happened?" “You fainted." He stared to her worriedly. “The doctor said it was because of exhaustion. You really need to take a break, you don't even need to work but you keep on working." “How long have I been out?" She sat up slowly and faced him. Shawn sighed. “Since last night... after you reminded me that I once saw the unfinished Memories of Nobody painting." He leaned back on his seat. “Catherine finished the painting but it was different from the first one I saw... why do you have the painting before and how is it in Catherine's care now?" Sandra chuckled. “You ask too many questions, Shawn. That is so nosy of you." “I just want to protect you...

“Breakfast is ready." Sandra and Shawn turned to Julian who was leaning against the pillar and eyeing them skeptically. Sandra turned to walk. “Today is full of surprises for me..." She passed by Julian, she chuckled and teasingly she said. “Good morning. I can't wait to taste Master Julian's healing dishes.” Shawn grinned to Julian and right behind his Sandra when Julian placed a hand on Shawn's shoulder making the younger man to stop. Julian seriously told him. “You're not invited." Shawn's eyes widen. “What do you mean? I'm hungry too!" “No. Leave." Shawn gasped. “Julian! But why?!" He clutched on his chest dramatically. “I want to taste the meal you cooked too!" Julian stretched his arms. “I don't cook for just anyone." Shawn drew a sharp breath. “I'm not just anyone! I'm family!" “I don't care. Get out. Leave. Now." Julian said those words so firmly and commanding, usually tone he uses every time he was about to destroy some business man that's trying to cross

Faye held up the camera right on his face, beaming she chortled. “Dad-daddy s-smile!" Julian grinned as his daughter giggled and took his picture. Faye settled away from him. John came in and paused in surprise when he saw them. “Mr. Fernandez!" He bowed. “This is a surprise." Faye beamed. “U-uncle Jo-John!" John smiled to Faye. “Hello, Miss Faye." “Where's Sandra?" John turned to him and respectfully answered. “She is currently in a meeting with her father, I suppose this is a surprise visit from you, Mr. Fernandez?" His brows furrowed. “Yes, it is..." His gaze dropped to Faye, who since the day started and Julian picked her up from home, had been throwing little tantrums. “Faye demanded she wants her mother today." “I see." John nodded, his smile fading slowly but still there. “Why are you here?" Slowly, Julian turned to face John. “What do to mean why I am here?" This time Faye had fled into the corner of Sandra's office and was taking pictures of the windowpane.

“Oh my God!" Sandra suddenly laughed softly, wrapping an arm around Shawn and leaning on his side. “Is that true? Or you're only playing with me?" Shawn sniggered and Julian blocked out whatever it was he was saying. He turned away from the two and headed towards the bar, he sat into the stool and he was immediately given a glass of scotch, doubled and stirred. Huh, it was his third glass and the bartender was familiar with what he's drinking already. Why is he here again? Why is Shawn here too? He eyed them skeptically, oh, they're still laughing and enjoying the night. Sandra is terribly close to Shawn and he had his hand on the small back of her, wow. Are they always this physical? How come Julian only sees this now? Shawn was still talking but that's given since the rat always talks, but why is Sandra laughing? Wait, let him rephrase that. Why is she even listening to Shawn? Who gave her the right to laugh to Shawn's antics? Was what Shawn telling her really funny? Like

“If you want me to be yours, you got to let me have you too..." He murmured softly against her ear. Julian moved closer to her removing his coat as he did. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her with all of the passion then he had. Her hands ran through his soft hair, her breasts were crushed against his hard chest and their mouth began to devour each other. Heart thudding Julian pulled back, looking into the dark eyes of a woman who knew what she wanted. His heart ached for her beauty. Sandra's hands pulled his polo shirt up, releasing it while she pushed it up and then over his head. Julian groaned. He had to feel her skin now. He put his arms around her again, had the zipper of her dress down and had the top pat pool over her tiny waist; he fumbled with the clasp of her bra until it finally undid. Sandra's breathing came faster as he lowered the first one strap and then another. Perfect, pale globes with nipples the same rose color as her lips greeted him. She shivered

Sophie stared down at her plate, her friend had reserved a dinner for the two of them tonight but her friend was stuck in traffic and he arrived first. Everyone was eyeing her the moment she entered. There was unpleasant and not so subtle whispers about her. “It's that bitch who slept with Shawn." Someone snipped. “I don't even want to be anywhere near here." Another one harshly commented. “That's Sophie Torres, right?" Someone snorted. “Look at her, she looks pathetic. Serves her right for crossing Catherine Hart and Sandra." Her tears fell as she looked down into her empty plate. She doesn't even know what she's crying for... her heart? Or her future? Or the hates she's getting? Nothing ever goes right and sometimes it just bundles up so much... it sinks deeper into her skin. God, it hurts so much. “Excuse me? Miss Sophie Torres?" She looked up to the General Manager. “Yes?" “It seems like your friend couldn't make it. We advise you to leave." She blinked. “Wha–

“Selflessness is selfish." When Shawn just started to her, Catherine explained. “The reason you should do things for other people alone is selfish. Whatever your reason is, it's a choice... There's no difference between selfish and selfless if you understand how the world works. We're all tied together. We live in an interdependent world, Shawn...” Shawn smiled. “You sounded like Sandra for a moment there.... it sounds like something she'd say.” Catherine shrugged. “It is how it is." Shawn watched her for a moment and when he spoke, his voice was controlled and held finality and firm on his voice. “I realized that... there seemed to be three choices, to give you trying to love, to stop being selfish, or to learn to love a person while continuing to be selfish." Catherine smirked. “Where is this coming from? That sounded very... complicated.” He smiled. “As mind boggling as the words itself, isn't it?" He shrugged then stared into her with a smile. “Catherine, I hope you

“YOU ARE SUCH A SHAME IN THIS FAMILY!" Julian stilled and his head snapped towards the direction of the screaming voice, his brows furrowed. “IS THIS ALL YOU CAN DO?! YOU AND YOUR DAUGHTER ARE JUST THE SAME! FAILURES!" Julian's eyes widen and walked towards that angry voice Julian so well know and despised. That Old man Parker. Julian turned into the corner and paused. Sandra and Mr. Parker stood face to face with the old man screaming profanities to her while Sandra wore an empty expression almost making her beautiful face look of a doll's. He couldn't take the verbal abuse she was getting from her very own father. The first time he is witnessing this and he was already raging in anger. He glared to Sandra though. Why wasn't she fighting back? She should claw her father's eyes out. Jesus, how long had this been going on? “What's going on here?" Both Mr. Parker and Sandra turned to him, Sandra smiled but Mr. Parker fumed in anger. Julian quietly walked towards them. “Wha

FLASHBACK... - Her imposing father stared down into her, his eyes dropping into her bandaged hand for a moment. ‘How's your hand?’ Sandra looked down into her hand too and smiled at him. ‘It's nothing to worry about.’ His eyes narrowed to her response. When he took a step forward to her she didn't cower, she just met his eyes unwaveringly. ‘Do you understand now how this people you call your friends can hurt you? It is always the closest ones who have the power of leaving the deepest scars in your heart.' ‘I know, daddy.' The corners of her lips curled up in a wry smiled. ‘I learned the hard way, as they say it all starts at home, considering I have no home in the first place. But you and mother had never been interested in me... the rest didn't hurt me at all. I'm used to it...’ She smiled blandly. ‘It's what happens when you keep on hurting... you get used to it.’ Mr. Parker's hand rose to touch her but had stopped himself, he dropped his hand on his side. ‘I am not

“What is that thing?" Julian chuckled. “It's Godzilla." “No wonder Faye can't watch this movie.. that thing is hideous." He grinned, he caressed her hair and stared into her face. “That is your first time watching this? I grew up loving all the franchise of the movie..." “I just hated seeing ugly things." Julian picked a slice of apple and took a bite. Sandra pecked on his lips, tasting the apple juice. “Yum.” Julian frowned into the plate. “Sandra, why don't you ever eat any other fruits?" He picked the strawberry. “Eat this." She widen her eyes. “No." “But why?" Julian dipped the strawberry to the cream and took a bite, he tried to feed it to her. “It's tasty. I promise." She made a face while shaking her head. Julian sighed as he put a hand on the back of her head. “Taste it." The gently he pulled her face to him and kissed her mouth. She pulled away first, she grimaced. “Oh God, you do that again and I'm slapping you." He grinned. “Come on, let's watch this s

Julian Fernandez. A man that breathes money, with commanding good looks, with such a smart brain, mixed with integrity and principle plus a very good heart. He screams perfection and for the majority a man like that is total package and a must have. Permanently. Julian is a sucker for goodness despite and in spite of everything. He believes even the men with no hearts a.k.a serial killers has a little goodness in them, somewhere in their darkest soul. See, a little smile, a little goodness and Julian is guaranteed to fall straight. He isn't gullible and not stupid, it's just that despite all his roughness lays a good and loving heart. Something Sandra hated the most. A good heart. A good soul. She terribly wanted to believe that good people don't exist but there goes the father of her child. A living proof that God did not forget to create good people. A walking and talking heart. Fuck him. Oh, yeah. She'll definitely will. She mused. “In a world built on struggles y

“You should eat, even a little Sophie..." Her friend told her gently. When Sophie didn't respond and merely stared in her window, her friend sighed. “Looks, it's not the end of the world yet. I know its hard, I know it hurts but you have to move on, girl.” “If I tell you I dated Julian Fernandez... will you believe me?" Her friend blinked in surprise. “Sophie..." She held her hand and gave it a comforting squeeze. A bitter smile crept on Sophie's face. “We dated for almost 2 years in secrecy, I met him in Hannah's party... he was a true gentleman and had that sweet smile... but you know what he did? He hurt me and now he's all over the place with that bitch Sandra and his abnormal kid clinging on his arm." Her friend sighed deeply. “Sophie... please eat a little more, you're losing a lot of weight. Get some sun too, come on let's stroll out together." Sophie chuckled amusedly. “You don't believe me, don't you? I thought so too. I was a kept woman." “Sophie, you life is n

“You're the president of the parents committee in Faye's school?" He glared to her. “The ladies thought it would be cool to have me as the president." Sandra laughed. After his called to her, she had been amused hearing that cute confession and decide to agree to attend in behalf of him. “That is the cutest thing I heard. Julian Fernandez, CEO of Fernandez Empire and the President of the parents committee in a Kindergarten level. I don't know which one is more tiring." He cringed, massaging his nape. “I knew I shouldn't have attended that invitation myself. When I arrived there, I discovered I was the only male specie around and the women. Jesus, you'd think they weren't married." Sandra laughed heartily, making him smile. “Hey, Sandra?" She stared at him, he stared at her in wonder. “I told earlier that I missed you... did you..." He cleared his throat. “Did you... miss me today?" The two of them was sitting on his couch, some movie was playing in the flat screen but Fa
