Shall I kiss her?

I could feel her heart beating so fast, so am I. I was also deaf and felt numb because of my abnormal heartbeat.

We were only a few inches apart when I stopped when someone suddenly sneezed behind me.

"Hachoo!" she exaggeratedly sneezed and afterwards cleared her throat.

Angela blushingly took a step back away from me and pinned her hair behind her ear because of the thought we were almost caught kissing. I shifted my gaze at my back just to see the one who interrupted our moment. And here was the culprit. None other than Bel.

"Uhmm, Clark. Maybe, you should go home. I bet your mom is looking for you right now. I'll take you to your car," Angela said hurriedly and pulled me out of the kitchen. I looked again at Bel who was now just staring at me. There was no emotion drawn on her face.

"Maymay! Kokoy! Say goodbye to Sir Clark,” Angela called her siblings.

Maymay ran in my direction and hugged me tight.

"Goodbye, Sir Clark. Please, come back here again soon,” M

    Clark's POV It was already six forty-five in the evening. I was at the venue where my first dinner date with Natasha would be conducted. Honestly, I was not considering this night as a date. It was just like, you were eating dinner and making chit-chat with her. That's all. No string attached. After I entered the five-star hotel, an employee approached and greeted me. He immediately accommodated me on my way. "Good evening, Sir Clark! This way," he greeted me and gave me his best smile. He motioned the way where the venue could be found. I already knew this place because we own this. Oh! Let me rephrase that. My parents own this place but soon, the responsibility of this hotel will be put in my hands. It answered why the employee knew my name. I sighed as I viewed the place. My mom undeniably planned this. I could see it in the romantic red color decorations all over the place. She was desperate for me and Natasha to be lovers someday. I sat down at the table where our dinner p

    After a half-hour, I was almost a half mile away from Angela's house. I took a glance at the stall of roasted and grilled chicken at the roadside. There were more chicken stores here. Looked like people in this village buy that kind of food. I couldn't blame them anyway. Grilled chicken was quite delicious. Most especially, it smells good. I looked at my watch, a few minutes before lunch. I decided to park my car on the side of the road, unbuckled my seatbelt, and get outside of the car. People on the street instantly looked in my direction, most especially in my car. Looked like this was their first time seeing this car model. Why would I not be having the latest car model? Our company is a car manufacturing company. I just ignored their stares and wore my sunglasses. I walked towards the stall. I bought two whole pieces of grilled chicken. Afterwards, I went to the convenience store to buy ice cream, chocolates and drinks. I just remembered the kids, Maymay and Kokoy. That was

    When I finally reached the backyard, I saw her siblings happily bathing in the well. Maymay was riding in a large basin while Kokoy was busy pumping the well to fill Maymay's basin. I approached their direction. "Big brother, keep pumping the well!" Maymay said happily while watching the water coming out. "Sir Clark!" Kokoy called suddenly when he saw me. He stopped from what he was doing and smiled in my direction. Maymay immediately shifted her gaze to me. "Sir Clark!!!" Maymay exclaimed excitedly. She was about to stand up in her seat when I stopped her. I volunteered that I was the one who would approach them. When I got closer, I bent one knee to make eye contact with her. "What are you two doing, huh?" I asked while smiling. "Swimming!!!" Maymay happily respond with a giggle. She even covered her mouth while chuckling. Kokoy shook his head at what his little sister said. "Swimming?" I asked curiously and stood up straight. Swimming? In a large basin? I asked in the b

    Clark's POV “So, we have a deal?" "Not so fast, Mr. Clarkson. You knew what I wanted and you haven't done that yet," Mr. Sy replied. Am I stupid? I know what he means. I put my two hands on the table and intertwined it. I moved closer to him and stared him intently in the eye. "But you already knew my answer, Mr. Sy and I will never change my mind about that. To be honest, I can run the company without your money," I answered bluntly and leaned back in my seat. I didn't care if my mom gets angry if Mr. Sy pulls out his investment in our car company because of this. "Oh! Okay, Mr. Clarkson. What an arrogant of you. Let's see," he said while smirking. Is he scaring me? Well, I'm not threatened. He glanced at his wristwatch and stood up. "By the way, I gotta go." "Better be," I replied sparingly, which made him glance at me once more. He gave me a playful smile on his face before finally leaving my office. I tiredly close my eyes and massage my temple because of the stress I've

    I slowly entered the VIP room where my client was waiting. My chest throbbed with the nervousness I was feeling. I was still not getting used to it. Every time I face something like this, I still feel new. I shut my eyes tightly and force myself to not be led by fear. I dramatically opened my eyes and saw an old man sitting on a couch; smoking a cigar. "Hey, slut. Come here..." he called me at the same time, motioning his hand as if he was saying to move closer in his direction. I could do nothing but approach him. I sat quietly next to him and bowed my head. Even though I wasn't looking at him, I could feel the stare he was throwing at me while sipping a glass of expensive wine. "Why are you still wearing your mask? Did you forget to take it off?" he suddenly asked out of curiosity and put the glass of wine on the glass table. I chose to not answer him. I remained silent and felt the surroundings. I heard him sigh because of the behavior I showed towards him. Just because he did

    I was seriously driving right now. Not minding the stranger inside my car. She was right beside me; sitting next to me silently. I kept my eyes on the road while my mind was occupied. There were so many things spinning here inside my head. Why do I have this strange feeling, huh? I asked myself. I was still confused. I kept arguing with my inner self; asking if I will confront this woman or not. Arg! I couldn't take this anymore. I stopped the car at the side of the road. I leaned my back on the driver's seat and took a long deep breath and sigh; not bothering to take a glance at her. Silence. The car was filled with silence. No one dared to speak. I just sighed once again and finally faced her direction. "Why are you trying to escape?" I asked confusedly. Her gaze shifted in my direction. When our eyes met, I could see she was confused too about my question. I just wanna know the reason why because...you know...I don't get it. It's her job, right? So, why on earth is she

    What's the problem with the idea to take off her mask? She immediately shook her head many times as if she was saying that it should never be removed. "Woah... It's okay, it's okay. I understand," I answered quickly while raising my two hands as if I was being hold-up. She looked so serious when she shook her head earlier. I thought there was a big reason why she did not want her bare face to be seen by others. "You know what?" I looked intently at her face. I saw her gulp. "You're weird," I commented and laughed slightly after pointing at the mask she was wearing. I did understand why she didn't want to remove it but I couldn't help but feel upset. "Yet mysterious," I added. It's true. I felt intrigued by what her bare face looked like and I was also kind of confused about this strange feeling that I am currently feeling right now. I couldn't name it. But, there was a sure thing, I felt this kind of feeling when Angela was near me or talking with me. That's the reason why

    Angela's POV When I made sure Clark's car was already gone, I walked quickly heading to our house. Our home was pretty close to where I landed. When I got in front of the door, I immediately took the key and hurriedly went inside. I went to the kitchen to drink water. To this day, the nervousness in my chest still lingered in my entire body. I was shaking while drinking the glass of water and gently laid it on the top of the table right after. I weakly sat down in the chair and combed my hair out of extreme tension. I thought he would know my secret. He was staring at me while we were eating and he even noticed my mask. I was so thankful he didn't insist on removing it on my face because if he does, my secret will be revealed. I finally removed the mask that was covering my face and sighed. "How long, Angela? How long will you be as Magda?" I asked myself while looking at the mask. I could no longer hold back the tears from my eyes. I immediately wiped it on the back of my right

    "A ring?" I uttered in astonishment and disbelief as I examined the ring on the tissue. I took another tissue to wipe it again. I was about to wipe the ring but stopped when I noticed something written on the tissue. I read it in curiosity."Will…" I read. I took another tissue and something was written again."You..."I picked up another one but this time, I placed and laid it on the table so I could read it properly."Will you marry me, Angela?"I was stunned and shocked after I read those words. I stared at the ring that I was holding and looked at my siblings and Bel who was now smiling at me so dearly.I sighed and lazily stared at Bel."What is this, Bel? Is this a prank?" I asked in assumption and looked at them boringly."You are fooling me," I concluded. Bel and my siblings just laughed in their seats. Later, the waiter approached me.My siblings and even Bel started screaming and shouting in amazement and excitement. I looked around and realized that there was no one else in

    "Big sister, come on! Hurry up! We are going to be late if we stay here for more minutes!" Kokoy shouted in a hurry outside my room. I quickly tidied myself and hurriedly reached for my bag then opened the door. I saw Kokoy fully dressed with his basketball jersey while Maymay was sitting on a wooden chair in the living room."Come on, kids. Let’s go," I said. They approached my direction and we left the house together.As I locked the door, I saw Bel waiting for a vehicle that we could take a ride. Moments later, a bus stopped in front of us and we immediately stepped inside. Kokoy and Maymay were very excited to go to school. They both went to the same school.Bel and Maymay ended up sitting on the right side of the bus while Kokoy and I were on the left.After I paid the fare fee, I caught a glimpse of Kokoy who now had a smile on his face but you could see he is undeniably nervous as well.I just tapped his shoulder twice to give him courage. The two of us looked at each other and

    "You're staring blankly in the air again. Back to earth, Angela."I got back to my senses when Bel suddenly appeared right behind me. I laughed and smiled at her."You are missing hi—Ouch! What is that for, Angela?!" she stopped from what she was going to say when I slapped her on her right arm. She immediately touched her arm that I hit and glared at me."I'm staring blankly then you showed up just to piss me off? You're a very supportive friend, Bel," I uttered sarcastically then chuckled.She sat down next to me on the wooden chair here in the backyard of the house."Well, it's true. Truth hurts, right?" she countered while gently caressing her arm.I smiled sadly and looked up at the sky. Every time a plane passes by on the horizon, I always get out of the house just to look at it. Not because I just want to see a plane, but because I think that maybe, on a plane I looked up in the sky, Clark is one of the passengers.Bel seemed to notice the changes in my mood. She sighed heavily.

    While I was inside the car, tears continued to fall from my eyes. Every sob was painful. Mrs. Clarkson who was now sitting next to me inside the car glanced in my direction. I heard her sigh because of my behavior."Do not worry. You can forget him soon...""You made the right decision, Angela. Don't cry too much. The sacrifice you made for Clark is for his sake and good condition. You just made the right decision. Maybe Clark will be angry with you first but you know my son. In the long run, he will understand why you chose to free him instead of keeping him with you," she comforted me which made me cry even more.Thinking that Clark would be separated from me, my heart was crushed by the extreme pain.Hopefully, what Clark's mother said will come true. I hope it crossed Clark's mind that my decision is for his best.I glanced outside the window. Buildings and spacious roads turned into narrow streets and close-knit wooden houses after a half-hour of a long ride. I could say we are no

    I hurriedly got off the bus when it stopped near where Clark lived.I walked quickly under the sun. When I was in front of Clark's mansion, I took a deep breath before ringing the doorbell.Just a few seconds later, the huge white gate opened in front of me. There, it appeared an old woman who I assumed was their housemaid."What do you need, ma'am?" she asked politely while looking at my face.I blinked a couple of times and cleared my throat before answering her."I-Is Mrs. Clarkson there?" I asked the maid anxiously and swallowed hard.The person I was looking for is not an ordinary woman in this society. She was well known for being rich and having businesses across the globe. That woman was Clark's mother who was extremely wealthy.My knees were shaking out of fear and nervousness. Nervous due to the idea that Clark and his mother got into trouble because of me. Getting nervous because I know Clark's mom already knew that I was a prostitute.What kind of face am I going to show to

    "Clark..." I whispered as the tupperware fell to the ground. I walked a little bit closer just to make sure that the man who was mixing the cement was Clark."Clark! Hurry up!" the man who I think is the foreman shouted to him.My tears rolled onto my cheeks after I heard what the foreman said. I slowly took a step backward and then ran away. I looked for a bus and went inside. After paying the fair fee, I looked outside the window. My tears started to flow. I wiped it away but it seems it was like a river that never stops falling.Why did he lie to me? In one month? And what is he doing there? Did his mom know already about me? Did his mom know that I am a prostitute? Don't tell me he suffered like that because of me?I broke into tears as I stared outside the window. When I was finally in our village, I got out of the bus and walked straight inside our house. I went to my room and sat on the bed. I slowly hugged my knees as I was thinking about what happened during my one month of me

    I slowly opened my eyes when I felt someone caressing my cheek gently. The first thing I saw was the warm smile of the beautiful woman living here on earth. She gently caressed my right cheek repeatedly while staring at me lovingly."Good morning, Clark," she whispered, then caressed my hair with her fingers.A smile automatically decorated my face. My heart was melting every time Angela showed me this kind of gesture. Even if I only got two hours of sleep, my day got fully energized when I got a glimpse of her in the morning.Come on, Clark. So cliché.I teased at the back of my mind."Get up, my love. You are going to the office," she reminded me and got out of bed.She held my both hands and pulled me just to make me sit on the bed. I laughed when she couldn't pull me. She was using her full force and it was visible on her face she was having a hard time.I laughed again as I pulled her in my direction. She fell on top of me. She got frozen when our faces were just a few inches away

    "It is so refreshing to see you here in my office. The day I became a shareholder in your company, you never visited me, Sir Clark," he uttered then chuckled again.I felt embarrassed and angry at the same time. I was now applying to this old man's coffee shop."Actually, I received an email from your mom saying don't bother to accept you if you ever seek a job at our business firm."I gulped and clenched my fist. No wonder how he got that email. My mother knows him well too.Mr. Montenegro stared at me deeply then after, he sighed. He put his both hands on the top of his office table and intertwined them."Are you aware that finding a job in this country is tough for you?" he asked.I cleared my throat and sat up straight."Yes. I'm aware," I answered and it earned a smirk from him."Your mom is so powerful. It's a wrong move to disobey her. Choosing a prostitute woman instead of your mother," he commented that making me grit my teeth."You don't know anything, Mr. Montenegro. If you

    After taking a bath, I quickly approached my baggage just to find a formal suit. When I'm done tidying up, I quickly left the room and went to Angela's room.As I entered, I saw Maymay looking at her big sister Angela who was sleeping on the bed. I could see the sadness on the child's face.I took a deep breath and released it slowly. I knocked on the door just to get the child's attention and I succeeded.She quickly wiped away her tears and cleared her throat."Sir Clark," she uttered in a weak voice. I walked to approach her. I sat on the bed next to Maymay and glanced at Angela."She will be fine soon, Maymay," I reassured her and averted my gaze back to the child. She lowered her gaze. It looked like she was embarrassed to show her weakness in front of me.Without any hesitation, I hugged her tightly which made her break into tears. She hugged me back while crying her heart out.She was so broken by what happened to her big sister. Even though she didn't know the real reason why h
