Angela's POV

I didn't know last night when my eyes closed and I fell asleep but when I opened my eyes, it's already morning. I sat down on the bed and stretched my body lazily then my eyes went to the table clock next to my bed. It was visible in it that it was already 9:00 in the morning.

"Ohh shit!" I immediately got up from the bed and went to shower.

When I came to the living area, I saw that mom and dad were having breakfast and could also say that they had already done it.

"Good morning, Mom…Good morning, Dad…" I greeted them in embarrassment.

Because this is my responsibility as a daughter-in-law to at least serve them breakfast if I couldn't make it. I don't know how they will think about me. I was a bit upset thinking all of these things in my mind when my mom held my hand and told me, "Good Morning, Sweetheart." Then dad smiled at me and greeted back, "Good morning, dear."

I know even if they were angry or disappointed in me, they would never talk to me about that which ma

    Angela's POV"Yes, I have to go abroad for four to five days in connection with work." His voice became slow and soft and I could feel his hesitation through his voice when he spoke about things abroad. I can sense it. He was worried about telling me this news."Angela…I know…" He tried to explain later. However, I stopped him with my words."No worries! I understand. It's just working.""Angela…" He whispered my name again and this time it gained so much love."Erish, you don't need to explain. All I want is just to be safe and come back as soon as possible after finishing the work." I responded to him in a calm tone, because I already sensed his anxiety with his tone.However, listening to me he became silent. Noticing his voice not coming from the other side of the phone, I called his name."Erish! Are you there?" I inquired and he immediately replied later."Yeah. I'm here." He answered."Angela, Thank you." His voice was sweet and calming but I was confused when I heard his wor

    Eric's POVI kept thinking of excuses to stay away from her throughout the night and perhaps God was also with me that the next morning I had to go out of the country in connection with work.At first, I thought that this decision was right for both of us. But after coming abroad this time, it became difficult for me to spend a moment without her. No matter how busy I was, my mind, my heart was only thinking about her. Sometimes I start to hallucinate that she is beside me, looking at me lovingly and smiling at me. After coming abroad, I used to massage her every night because I thought my brother would also do the same and I don't want her to doubt me anyways. So, if my one message could make her happy then it's not a bad decision and I also want to talk to her. I missed her crazily and really wanted to go back as soon as possible beside her. but I overcame my feelings and thought that it would not take too long to complete my work here, more than 4 to 5 days and it went well just a

    Angela's POV"Mom, Dad, Do you both really need to shift from home?" I was so upset when they Informed me that they were leaving this house and going back to their old mansion. I mean, this is their home. Then why do they need to change it suddenly? We all can live together happily. And I knew, Erish also felt like that always. "Silly Girl!" Mom raised her hand to crease my cheeks, as her facial expression turned softer when she looked at me and let her lips give a light smile before finally speaking."Who told you? We are leaving you and Erish. We are just leaving this house. To give you a new couple some great alone time. I hope you understand." Mom's words made me feel bad. She's doing this for me and Erish. "But Mom, we are already good enough." I tried to explain. "No dear, After marriage, many things changed. Even you both know each other from childhood. You both need sons quality space. And anyways, this plan we don't make suddenly. We always prepared to do that as soon as

    Eric's POVDue to my flight being early, I reached home several hours ahead of time. I believed everyone would be waiting for me when I reached home. But when I actually reached home, everything turned to be silent. The atmosphere of home is too silent to digest. I did not find anyone in the living area and thought that maybe they would all be in their room. But why is the servant also missing? This made me curious. I should have asked Angela. Thinking that, I started walking towards the stairs which went to the master bedroom.Guessing that maybe Angela might be there but then unexpectedly a loud music attracted my attention. And the next second my steps turned back to follow it. I followed the music all the way which went straight to the kitchen path. At first,I was surprised who could be playing music in the kitchen. But when I goen near, I saw a different atmosphere there.There was no one else in the kitchen but Angela, who was cooking alone as well as dancing to the music r

    Eric's POV"You rest here, I'll tell mom, make something light for you to eat," I said, making her lie on the bed. "Erish, I need to inform you something." She shortly asserted while I looked at her and waited for her to continue. She understood my gesture and continued talking."Erish, Mom and Dad are not in the home..." She announced While I frowned, easy brows twisted to hear that."If both of them are not in the house then where have they gone?" I asked, as my coolness took off hearing this news."They have shifted to the old mansion today." She answered and my anger burst."What? They left this house and went to live in another house. That too without telling me?" I just blurted out with rage."Erish! Don't be angry. They just…" She tried to convince me but I was really upset with my parents. "When did they leave?" "Today, afternoon," She replied with hesitation.I smirked foolishly. As I looked at Angela and asked, "Why didn't you stop them?" She looked at me with little tak

  • Love Of Substitute    Chapter 22

    Angel's POVWhen I opened my eyes, the rays of the sun caught my sight. It turned out it was already morning.Then I glanced next to me, where Erish was not on the bed. I believe that like every time, maybe this time too he has gone to office. That's when I only remembered that yesterday I slept back while waiting for him and in my mind, I could not help but start cursing myself about how I spoiled the whole surprise of last night by myself.I looked at my finger which I had hurt last night and seeing my own fate, I could just sigh helplessly…"You are truly unlucky Angela…" I mumbled out before I finally got off the bed and went to the washroom to take a quick shower. After that when I came into the living area. I could only find myself alone in the big house, which made me feel terrible.Moreover, this morning was different than every morning because even if Erish wasn't with me, I would never have felt empty in this big house because of mom and dad's presence. But today, thi

    Eric's POVI thought that if I went home late from the office, she must have slept before I came home, but upon reaching home, I saw that she had fallen asleep waiting for me at the dining table.I unbuttoned my suit jacket and put it on the sofa and sat down on the chair right next to her. I began to look intently at her sleeping face. As she looked even more beautiful when she slept. Staring at her for a long moment in silence, my gaze fell on some strands of her hair which had fallen right on her face because of the slow wind coming through the open window. Those strands were coating her eyes and resting on her pink lips.I went closer to her face and with my fingers, I tried to slowly pull her locks away from her beautiful face and tuck them behind her small ears.Doing this, her perfect gorgeous face appears in front of my sight again, which I want to keep in my dreams day and night without blinking my gaze from her. I stared at her face for a long time and started thinking in

  • Love Of Substitute    Chapter 24

    Eric's POVI checked everywhere but I didn't see anyone. Maybe she saw a shadow of something. Thinking this, I started going back to my study room. But before I could pull down the doorknob, there was the sound of something falling to the ground and I instantly turned to check on the direction from where the sound came. I start looking around with alertness. However, again there is a long silence all around as if no sound has come in the first go. Is that my illusion? I shake my head and again make my way back to the study room. But this time a man's voice falls on my ears, on hearing which I stop my feet to go further. And what made me active is that this sound is not coming from anywhere else but from the storeroom. That's one place I haven't checked yet. That time I knew Angela was right. There is someone. I didn't want to warn the thieves by any chance.That's why I started moving slowly towards the storeroom. Moreover I tried to peek inside by opening a little part of t

    THREE DAYS LATERAngela's POV "Mom, what happened? Who comes to meet me?" I walked to the living area and abruptly asked her. But soon my eyes went from Mom to the man who was young and in a professional suit. His hand carries some files.Before I could ask him, who is he? He approached me and asked," Mrs. Angela Brooks?" I hesitantly answered, as my eyes moved to watch my Mom whose face is the same as confused as mine. "Yes, It's me." My stares went back to the man. Waiting for him to introduce himself. "Hello, Mam. My name is Billy Hill. I'm a professional lawyer. And today I'm coming here as my client and your husband Mr. Eric Brooks's divorce lawyer."

I asked Erish, who's still thinking I got a chance with Angela."Eric, think carefully…""I think you first need a deep conversation with Angeal to make the last decision." This is what he has been saying for the last two days after I told him about my divorce decision. "That's enough, Erish. We both know. Angela is never going to forgive me or trust me again. I finally accepted reality. So, please don't push me to think of imaginable things again." It's already hurt enough to accept this, I wanted to shout that to him but at last, let it go."Alright. If this is your choice, I'll not go to interpret it. But don't feel wrong at last, not talking to her." His every word fell harsh on me. I can see there is anger in his eyes. Before he just left me in my room alone. His last words echoed in my mind again and again. But who will explain to him that I did everything in my strength to let her feel my love for her? But still, she hates me. An
