GAVIN’S POVWhen are you going to wake up, my wife? Staring at the person in front of me that’s peacefully sleeping, I can’t help but to wish that she’s at least resting in her dream. Not thinking about anything else and just resting.Madison already experienced a lot. A whole lot more than anyone else. She deserves a peaceful sleep.Holding her hand, I raised it and felt it on my cheeks. My wife is really pretty, even our baby is as pretty as her. I fear that she might break down when I show her the picture of our baby…Haaa. I sighed as I rested my cheeks in her hand. Ugh fuck.I groaned when my phone suddenly rang. I carefully put her hand back and stood up as I picked up my phone inside my pocket and walk outside, closing the door behind me.“Hello? Is this Mr. Morgan?”It was a deep male voice that I first heard.“Yes. Who is this?”“This is the police contacting you from the base. We called you to inform you about Froylan Vandellion.”Froylan Vandellion? That fucking bastard
AUTHOR’S POVThe room is quiet as the four people inside were just minding their own business. Gavin is standing in front of the window while talking with his phone. Jordan is busy peeling some apples while constantly glancing at Madison every minute.Clarisse is too immersed with the social media in her phone.And lastly, Madison, who’s staring at the bouquet of flowers in her arms. ‘Where did this come from?’She asked in her head. The flowers in her arms were brought by the delivery man whom they spoke to earlier. After some checking if something odd or harmful is there, they let Madison hold it since the doctors suggested it to lighten her mood.There is also a note found in the bouquet. Madison slowly picked the note that caught Gavin and Jordan’s attention. She never took an interest in anything they brought. They even tried giving her a bouquet of flowers, more prettier and fragrant than the one that had been delivered.Gavin and Jordan looked at each other as they both to
AUTHOR’S POVWhile Maddie and Massie, the children of the Wilhenbergs, are facing their own emotional battles, their parents also have something on their own.Mariano and Miranda are sitting in the dinning as they weakly eat their dinner. They look like a pair of elegant old people that’s trying to finish the tasteless food that was prepared for them.“Did you cook that well? We might get scolded if not!”“I did! I don’t know why I was even assigned to cook when all I can only do is clean!”“That’s true. Can’t they just hire a new chef?”“I heard that they can’t afford to hire a new one.”“Is that true?”“Yea-”“WHY THE HELL IS THIS SO BLAND?!”The maids jumped in their stations when they suddenly heard their mistress’s shout.“What did you do?!”“Oh no…”“Oh no what?!”“I forgot to add some salt..”“Oh my gosh! You’re so stupid!”They rushly hid in their room as the other maids ran far away from the dining room. Miranda, on the other hand, slapped the maid beside her and asked for ne

MADISON’S POVIt would be odd if he’s not related to Gavin at some point, they looked so much alike. They looked relative or something. I don’t know since he didn’t tell me anything about his relatives.Thinking about the possibilities, I suddenly feel like I have something to remember… Did I… forget something important? It feels like it’s in the back of my head and I’m trying to shake my brain, to squeeze it out.I tried remembering everything that Gavin has said. I feel like there’s something that I should remember but I can’t remember anything at all. Aside from some blurry things that I can’t understand, I don’t remember anything else…Who is this man? What is he doing in my garden? Who let him enter? What’s his relationship with Gavin? Damn… what if Gavin said something about a guest that’s staying here? Or an important person visiting? A business partner? Damn.. I didn’t listen… What if this really is one of his relatives? But even if Gavin has any relatives… he probably does
MADISON’S POVThe peaceful garden has now become chaotic. Maids and servants are watching the scene. The head maid and butler that was supposed to stop them are rushing towards me.“My lady, would you like to come inside? I don’t think-”“It’s fine.”I slowly stepped away from them and sat on the bench with Chowie following my every movement. I looked up and saw how Gavin glared at the man, while the man just stood there.They are really related. I can feel it. Looking at the man’s expression and eyes, he shows great affection and longing. I have a guess about who this man might be. It’s just a wild guess but I think I’m right.“I told you not to bother her. Not to approach her. And not to touch her!”“I didn’t touch her, son-”“Don’t you fucking call me that!”“Alright, Calm down. I didn’t do anything wrong, Gavin. You’re overreacting.”“Overreacting? Overreacting! This is not overreacting.”“Then what? We just had a small conversation and you’re being like this!”“Who the hell woul
MADISON'S POVEntering my room, I couldn't help but to notice how things inside of it didn't change. Everything is the same as the day that I arrived here since I don't want to change it.After awhile, I jump to my bed, just like how I threw myself in it even before I became attracted to that weird person Laying in the familiar bed in a familiar bedroom as I stare at the familiar ceiling, I can't help but to feel nostalgic with everything.I've been staying here for a few days but I only thought about how this room never changes. The things that I fixed and placed are still there. My clothes and accessories are still the same. There’s nothing missing…Even the things that I received are still where I put them before I leave.Everything is in place just like how it used to but it’s not dirty or dusty… It’s clean as always.The maids didn’t even change the color of my mattresses and covers. I don’t know who ordered it but I’;m thankful that they didn’t disrespect me by doing that. The
MADISON'S POV"My lady!""Hello, my lady!""Be careful!""My lady! Please don't run!" It was the maids that I passed while running through the hallways. Gavin left this morning saying that he'll take home our child. And he's now here! Sylv, my personal maid before, called me excitedly, saying that Gavin is already here while I'm laying at my bed motionless while waiting for him.I dashed out of my room as soon as I heard that Gavin is already here. My child...I ignored the tears that's forming in my eyes as I ran down the stairs. To be honest, my stitches are still not yet healed...They might bleed later but who cares? What's important is that my child is finally here. I hurriedly ran down the stairs while slightly jumping while walking. I ignored every person I encountered. Nervous? Maybe. Having mixed feelings? Definitely.Today is the day… I wanna cry, I wanna hug him, I wanna see his face… But of course… he’s…already ashes.Earlier when I was thinking about my baby’s appe
