Hinata’s hand was still resting lightly on Antonio’s shoulder. The stars above seemed to shine a bit brighter now, their reflection dancing in her eyes.She tilted her head slightly, a playful smile curling at the corners of her lips.“You know, Diego-San,”Hinata began, her voice taking on a softer, in a more teasing tone, “it’s not every day a woman finds herself sitting under the stars with such a handsome gentleman. Maybe this is one of those rare moments I should treasure.”Antonio chuckled, missing the flirtatious glint in her eyes.“I don't about handsomeness, but it's indeed a beautiful night.”Hinata’s smile widened, and she leaned in just a little closer. “It is,” she agreed, her voice almost a whisper. “Especially when you’re with someone special. Don't you agree?”Antonio turned to her, his expression still sincere and innocent.“Yeah, it’s nice to have a good friend by my side.”Hinata blinked, momentarily thrown off by his obliviousness and Innocence. She quickly recovered
Mrs Gabi stood by the small window of their room, peering out into the moonlit night.The silver light cast soft shadows across the landscape, but Gabi’s focus was on Antonio and Hinata, sitting close together on the wooden bench by the shore.She couldn’t help the smile that crept across her face as she watched their quiet cute but awkward interaction.She's been there for some time now, like a spy in the shadows monitoring them.Although she can't hear them from where she was, from the look of things.It seems like the two are getting into something interesting.Suddenly, Gabi’s heart fluttered when she noticed the tender look in Antonio’s eyes, a look she hadn’t seen in him since he lost his memory.“Lucas!” she whispered urgently, turning toward their bed. “Get up and come see this.”Lucas groaned, rubbing sleep from his eyes as he sat up.“What is it now, Gabrielle?” he mumbled, but he shuffled over to the window anyway.When he saw what Gabi was watching, his sleepiness vanished
After a week of postponing the date, Angel has finally agreed to give her date a chance.That very day she prepared for her dinner date with a mix of excitement and nervousness.Yuki was the one who chose her outfit for the date before she left Angela's place in Tokyo.She had a great taste in fashion.A flowing, deep red gown that accentuated her curves and brought out the warmth in her complexion. She also took her time to style her long brunette hair, silky and smooth, and let them down her back like soft waves.Following Yuki's advice she enhanced her look with a touch of makeup, a subtle shimmer on her eyelids and a delicate liner to her brown eyes that made them appear even larger and more expressive. A soft blush dust on her cheeks, giving her a natural glow, while a classic red lipstick completed her look, adding a pop of color that matched her dress perfectly.The twins Liya and Lia teased her because it was very rare to see her with makeup. The teenagers didn't miss the op
The next minute, she slowly opened her eyes and her eyes caught the tall figure that just entered the restaurant.It's him!He was tall, with neatly styled blonde hair and striking blue eyes that exude warmth. He carried a big bouquet of rose flowers in his hand. From his outfit, she looked so underdressed. He was definitely dressed to impress.Also, the bouquet of flowers, it looks expensive.As soon as their eyes met, his expression asked lots of questions.Immediately, Angela felt a wave of emotions crash over her.Excitement, nervousness, and a twinge of guilt. Was she really ready to move on from Antonio?Standing up from her seat, she waved at him, her heart pounding. She forced a smile, pushing aside the lingering sadness that tried to sneak into her heart.Thinking about Antonio will spoil this day.This was her chance to finally move on, and she was determined not to let her past hold her back.As he approached, his smile was bright and lovely. His aura was gentle yet i
“Angela? Are you okay?” Ken’s concerned voice broke through the fog in Angela's mind, pulling her back to the present. She blinked, realizing she had been staring at Antonio, wide-eyed and speechless. Her eyes slowly went to the name tag on Antonio's shirt.DIEGO?Ken looked at her a bit embarrassed with a mix of worry and confusion.While Antonio shifted uncomfortably under her gaze, clearly puzzled by her reaction.Angela forced herself to breathe, to regain herself and control her emotions that were threatening to spill over.Her hands were visibly shaking, itching to hug him, but enough scenes had been created already. “I’m…. I’m sorry about all this,” she managed to say, her voice shaky.She quickly turned away from Antonio, trying to hide the turmoil raging inside her. “Just… a little overwhelmed, that’s all. It's not about you…my apologies.”She avoided his eyes this time.Antonio nodded politely, though his brow furrowed slightly, as if he sensed something wasn’t quite ri
Angela’s heart was pounding crazy as she fumbled with her keys at the front door, her mind swirling with the image of Antonio dressed in a waiter’s uniform at the restaurant.He was alive, right there in front of her, but he didn’t recognize her!Not just that…The image of the waitress Hinata sharing a kiss with him came to mind.Tears assembled in Angela's eyes again.He has another woman….for how long?Are they married?Do they have children? The door creaked open, and Angela stepped inside, her chest heavy with sadness and frustration and many emotions she never felt before. The house was filled with the sounds of music and laughter.The twins Lia and Liya, were in the living room, joyfully playing a dancing game on the TV with their little brother, Antonio Jr. The four-year-old’s giggle was the loudest through the house, pure and carefree. He jumped and spun, trying to keep up with his big sisters during the dance challenges.The moment Angela stepped into the living room, th
“Antonio is alive,” Angela’s voice cracked, and she took a shaky breath, “I… I saw him. Doris. He’s alive.”Doris’s eyes widened in shock, and she quickly covered her mouth to stifle her gasp.“Angela… are you sure it was him?” Doris whispered, her voice barely audible as she glanced nervously at Kerry and Courtney. “I’m very certain, Doris,” Angela replied, her voice cracking in-between tears.“It was him. But he’s… different. He doesn’t remember me. He doesn’t remember anything. I tried to talk to him, but he just looked at me like I was a stranger.”“Doris, I don’t know what to do,” Angela continued crying “It’s like I’ve lost him all over again, but this time it’s worse because he’s right there, but he’s not the man I knew.”Kerry, who was overwhelmed with shock, could no longer contain herself.Courtney couldn’t hold back her shock mixed with excitement. “Antonio is alive?”Courtney chuckled,“I can't believe that my cousin is alive!”Angela froze, her heart skipping a beat
It was late evening, Angela laid on her bed crying heavily.Suddenly, her phone buzzed on the nightstand. She glanced at the screen through tear-blurred eyes and saw Yuki’s name flashing.She hesitated, her heart was heavy with a mix of frustration and exhaustion. She knew why Yuki was calling.Doris must have told her to check on her. The thought of trying to explain everything, her pain, and disappointment was too much to bear.With a heavy sigh, Angela turned her phone face down, letting the call go to voicemail.The room was once filled with the quiet, muffled sound of her sobs as she curled up on the bed, wishing she could escape the pain and take back the hand of time. To prevent all this from happening.Grandma, Jace, Antonio's new identity.Suddenly, her eyes shot open as the thought of fighting for what was hers came to mind.She knew where Antonio was working as a waiter, all she needed was a chance to talk to him.Immediately She moved to her wardrobe for an outfit.The c
