QUIVA I glanced at Nicholas, saw him looking at me with an angry face. I looked away to look at Trev who was also looking at me. I can see the heaviness and tiredness on his face.I thought of Jane, and the way she acted earlier. Maybe she has a big problem why she acted like that. She still has a grudge against Trev. I am also a little worried about her, why I decided to leave.I didn't say a word. Walked slowly to the door. I was about to leave but I heard Trev calling me. He ran towards me. I was surprised. Then he gave me a sad look. "Can you check her for me? She's really drunk." He said weakly. That's when I understood his gaze. I feel sorry for him. They are truly not yet okay. Jane is angry with him but he is still very worried about her. I nodded. I was gonna leave but I couldn't bear it. I turned to Trev again and whispered to him. "Can you check your brother too? He's been vomiting, maybe he won't stop vomiting." I whispered softly
QUIVAI stared cutely at the fries in front of me. I'm halfway finishing it all. I beat the kids. I might eat all their snacks.It's been two days since we went home from our vacation in Ilocus. I'm still thinking about what Nicholas did. He could have just made Trev take Jane home. Maybe he really wanted to drive her home because he's very concerned about her. He was cold at me, so maybe he really likes Jane, and doesn't really care about me anymore.Suddenly, every beat of my heart hurt. Damn, Nicholas. You keep hurting me.I'm at my sister's house. Planning to tell her about my pregnancy. For two days I was alone in the condo, I had a lot of time to think. I had a lot of thoughts. I need someone I can lean on. I need her help because I don't know much about pregnancy. She has two children and is older than me I'm very sure she knows about pregnancy."Sister..." I started. I picked up some fries and ate them. We're in their living room, sitting on a couch. I can feel her eyes on me.
QUIVAMy sister always visits me at my condo. She takes her children with her sometimes who I always annoy. She let me do my tricks, whatever that is I wanted to do because she said it was part of my pregnancy. She spoiled me with my cravings. When she was pregnant, she gets frustrated and stress whenever she doesn't get what she wanted.One time I craved food that I knew I could buy at a convenient store, so I left the condo. The 7/11 I was going to was right next to the condo building so I just walked. If I had known that I would see an evil creature on the road, I would not have gone out.The goddamn Criselda was outside 7/11. I think she followed me here and waited until I was done shopping. She was smirking looking at me.The way she looks at me made me nervous. She looks like she has an evil plan. Or that is how she normally look? Like a demon. Maybe."How are you? Did you had a great vacation?" She asked with her bitch tone and bitch face.I composed myself, not letting her kn
QUIVAHis eyes were fixed at me as he approached. He went to my side.We both heard running footsteps. When I glanced at where Criselda was standing earlier, she's gone. She's nowhere to be seen. I think she got afraid of Nicholas."Who's that? You were talking to someone?" Nicholas asked. Seems like he didn't saw Criselda. Maybe she was blocked from his view because of the parked car. You could only see her from my place.When I looked back at him I almost gave in. I want to hug him. Seeing his handsome face made me cry harder. I want to tell him how Criselda keeps starting a fight with me. I want to tell him the bad words that woman said to me. But I stopped myself. I remembered the most painful words said by that freak. She said he bedded her and had an affair with her. I was hurt and got angry with Nicholas thinking about it."Criselda." I answered rudely and sparingly.His face changed. I can see the worry and surprise on his face. He looked at me from head to toe. Checking if I
QUIVAI heard a woman's voice, its Gina. Knowing she's here made me feel a little better. She asked where I was. Trev told her I'm in the kitchen. I hear her voice approaching.When she saw me, she immediately signaled me with her eyes. Pointing at Nicholas and Trev. But when she saw me just sitting here and saw that I was not okay, she quickly approached me."Are you okay? What's wrong?" She asked whispering. She didn't need to whisper."I'm just dizzy. Why are you here?" It shows in my tone that I'm weak. She went to the refrigerator and took a pitcher of water. She poured me water into a glass and gave it to me."You look pale. Do you have a fever? Are you sick?" She asked quickly. I shook my head.Oh, right! She doesn't know I'm pregnant. I don't want to tell her about my pregnancy over the phone why I haven't told her yet. I want to say it personally. She's been busy with her work and everything why she couldn't visit me. Why I'm also surprised that she's here. She didn't tell me
QUIVAThe two watched us, Gina and Trev. Gina's asking me with her stares. Asking if I'm willing to talk to Nicholas. Probably so she could figure out a way to cast away Nicholas if I don't want to talk to him."Go home now." I said to him without even looking at him. I can feel his gaze."Q, do you have soju here? I wanna drink soju." Gina said loudly then wrapped her hand around my arm and pulled me back to the kitchen."You stay here for now. I'll take the two home. It looks like Sir doesn't want to leave you. I'll go out with them, looks like you don't have any alcohol here as well. I'll be right back." She said. I just nodded.I don't want to talk to Nicholas because I don't know what to say. And I might get dizzy again. I don't want another problem to think of. Maybe I'm stressed so much why I get dizzy. It's ten o'clock. I don't know if Gina and I will continue to talk. I’ll probably just sleep on her. I'm not really going to drink.Gina came back with soju, sprite, yakult and
THIRD P POV"What is it?" his older brother suddenly ask him. He forgot that he was right next to him and seemed to have heard what he said.He was going to lie to his brother but he thought of asking him. He might know a place or someone where they could buy sherbet. Q doesn't like ice cream that can be bought at a convenient store. Even if it's branded expensive ice cream, she doesn't like it because she's really looking for sherbet."Do you know where I can find sherbet? You might know someone who sells sherbet at this hour bro?" He asked his brother.He might ask who is he buying it for but he doesn't mind. He also wants to stress his older brother on thinking where to buy sherbet at this time because he should be the one who is stressed about Q right now.He is the father of the child Q is carrying but it is Trev who is having problems in Q's conception. He is itching to tell his brother the truth but he is not because he wants the truth to come from Q. He doesn't want to be the
QUIVA "Maybe she doesn't like the taste of soju." Trev said. We looked at each other. He was helping me."She's the one who introduced soju to me." Gina said. I bit my lip. You can't fool Gina Trev, when it comes to me. And its true, because of me, Gina started drinking soju."Is that so?" Trev said. "Maybe it's a different flavor, that's why she doesn't like it? Or maybe the person who made it isn't good at mixing it. I don't like it either to be honest." He said casually. I immediately looked at Gina because she was the one who made the mixture, I knew she would be upset."Don't drink it if you don't like it! You should have made the mixture. Make your own if you don't like my mixture!" She said flatly.Told you she will be annoyed. I signaled Trev not to annoy Gina. Trev moved closer to me, crouched down so he could whisper to me."You and your friend are both crooked." He whispered. I was immediately annoyed. I glared at him. The fool laughed."Your debt, huh? You might have forg
