Amber Pov When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the white ceiling. I thought that I didn't survive the accident that happened so I'm in heaven now because I am already dead. "Oh, my God! Am I really dead?" I couldn't help but muttered as I looked at the white ceiling. But I frowned suddenly when I saw a small lizard pass by on the ceiling. "Even lizards can reach heaven?" I heard soft laughter from two people. Voices of a woman and a man. "I think your brain has been damaged so it seems like you're going crazy, Amber," the woman with Mildy's voice spoke to me. I looked at the woman who spoke and was happy to see Mildy and Nikky standing near the door. "Are you dead too? Why? What happened to you that you died?" I asked them with wide eyes. "Amber's acting is kind of worrying, Nikky. It's not funny anymore. Hurry up and call a doctor," Mildy ordered Nikky, the smile on their lips disappeared and their faces were replaced with worry. "Doctor? I'm inside the hospital a
Amber PovThree days after I woke up I was discharged from the hospital. The doctors didn't even want to let me go but I insisted on getting out. Nikky brought me to his condo because I still didn't want to go home until I die andn't be able to speak to Phil. I can't temporarily live in Mildy's apartment because she has returned to their house and I can't live in her apartment by myself. In my condition now, I need to have someone with me at home because the doctor said that I am not allowed to move too much yet. Because I still get a little dizzy when I try to move normally.While I was in the hospital Phil didn't bother to contact me even once. So I thought he was still mad at me until now that's why he didn't contact me. Or did he even try to find me? Maybe he didn't notice that I didn't come home for how many days because his attention was only focused on his niece whom he loves so much. I think he even loves his nephew more than his life."Why are you sad, Amber? Do you feel any
Amber PovWith tears in my eyes, I explain to Nikky what had happened that makes me walk out of Phil's house while crying. He was very angry after he heard my story. He wanted to go and confront Phil about what I saw but I quickly stopped him. I don't want to look even more pathetic in front of Phil and Bovic so I let my friend just bring me back to his condo.After we went back to Nikky's condo, I quickly locked myself in my room inside his condo. I released all the pain I was feeling by crying. I punched the pillow and screamed so loud to lessen the heavy weight in my chest. If I didn't do that I might not be able to breathe. My chest is tight because I feel so much pain.I never thought Phil could hurt me like this. He fooled me. He made me believe that he doesn't love Bovic. He made me believe that he loves me. But it turns out that he doesn't really love me because the girl he loves was Bovic. He only restrains himself because she was his sister-in-law. And I, a big fool who bel
Amber Pov Even though it was hard, I tried hard to forget Phil. But forgetting him is not an easy thing to do. Because no matter how hard I try to forget him, I really can't bring myself to do it. But I can say that the good thing that happened to me is that the old Amber came back. That brave and carefree Amber that my two friends know. And I also don't cry anymore if Phil comes to my mind. Maybe I'm starting to learn of forgetting him. "Wake up, Amber! We're going to be late for work," Mildy's voice spoke loudly to me from outside my room. It's been more than two months since Phil and I broke up. Well, we're not officially separated yet because I haven't signed the divorce papers. We've just gone our separate ways. He still hasn't sent me our divorce papers for me to sign. I did not contact him to ask why our divorce papers have not been sent to me until now. I don't want us to have any more connections. We are not separated in the eyes of the law but for me, we are already separ
Amber Pov Suddenly, my heart beat faster when I saw that Phil was the new owner of the Sunshine Shopping Mall where Mildy and I currently working. Except for his slightly plump cheeks, his appearance hasn't changed since I left. He is still handsome and has a strong sex appeal. So I can't blame my co-workers if they get excited looking at Phil because even though we've been together for a few months, my heart still beats faster every time I see him including now. And it's not a good sign for me. Wake up, Amber! What is happening to you? You must have forgotten that he hurt you, a small voice inside my mind reminded me. I quickly shook my head to shake off any feelings and thoughts that were resurfacing when I saw Phil. It can't be. I must stop my heart from seeming to ruminate. I must remember that we are separated and he hurt me so much so we can't get back together especially now that he has Bovic and her son in his life. I don't want to be redundant in his life again. Phil didn
Amber PovIt's almost eight o'clock in the evening but I'm still not dressed. I just lay on my bed and stared at the ceiling. If I had to choose, I really don't want to attend the dinner party organized by Phil for our department. I don't want to see him anymore because the hurt he did to my feelings was still fresh in my heart and mind. But who would have thought that he would be our new boss? The saying "small world" is really true because Phil and I crossed paths again.I was still staring at the ceiling when the door to my room opened and Mildy entered. Like me, she still hasn't changed her clothes."What are you doing, Amber? Why aren't you dressed yet? Are you waiting for hundreds of lizards to pass by on the ceiling?" she immediately asked and sat next to me. "Are we going or not?"I just stared at the ceiling for a few moments before I took a deep breath."Okay. I'm going to get dressed so get dressed too," I told her. I got up and went to the cabinet to get some clothes to
Amber Pov "You look so beautiful, Amber," Melvin complimented me when I entered the room where everyone was complete and I was the only employee who entered late in the room. Melvin is assigned to Eau D' Perfume and is opposite to my post so we often talk when there are no customers. "I agree with what you said, Melvin. Her makeup is very simple but she's still stunning," Mildy said. I laughed secretly because my friend just wanted to annoy Harlen who couldn't hide the frown on her face. No one complimented and noticed her appearance while mine did. "Sit down, Amber," our manager spoke to me. I immediately sat in the empty seat. I was unlucky because the only vacant seat was the one next to Harlen. And she is next to Phil. But at least I'm not next to Phil. Because I definitely wouldn't be able to swallow the food if he was sitting next to me. "That must have intensified your admiration for Amber, Melvin," one of our co-workers teased Melvin. "Why don't you court her? You will
Amber PovBefore I could answer Melvin, I was preceded by Phil's voice from behind me. When I looked at him, I saw that his face was serious and his eyes were narrowed while looking at me. "Do you need anything from Amber, Sir Salvatore? Why don't you just tell her now?" Melvin asked Phil with a serious face. It seemed that he didn't like that Phil will take me home and he had no intention of letting me go with our boss even though he had no right to me.If Melvin didn't seem to like the idea that I will go with our boss, Phil also seems to hate the idea that I will go with Melvin. For sure, he hates that idea not because he is jealous but because he doesn't want to lose his employee. But they didn't know that I don't want to go with any one of them. "Yes, you're right...uuhmm..."Phil stopped speaking and furrowed his forehead as if wondering what was the name of the employee in front of him. "Melvin Sanchez, Sir," Melvin immediately mentioned his full name when he saw that Phi
