It is burning me as well as my eyes and I couldn't help it anymore. I silently wept because of the intense hatred I felt in my heart for these people who did nothing but hurt me.
I wanted to ask all of them how much I sinned against them so that they would do this to me, but even speaking seemed to make me tired as well.
I gasped for air as I was trying to calm myself, but it triggers my feelings more mostly when I suddenly remember everything he did to me last night. I sighed violently and looked up at him that kept on staring at me still.
"Why are you doing this to me? Do you know what you did to me? What do you want from me?" I asked him. My voice cracked.
He averted his gaze from me and turned away. I bit my lower lip and let out a loud moan. I can no longer describe
I still don't understand why I deserved to be hurt like this. I don't get the reason why all this pain turned into traumas and issues I have no idea how to resolve. I don't think I will ever have a chance to fully grasp what all these sufferings mean, because, at the end of the day, I always forgive.And I continuously forgive them even without their apologies. I still love them even though there are fears of the history they carved on my skin. I still care even if my trust was milk-powdered.I hate that I was called resilient for responding greatly to my trauma. I hate that I am being bamboozled by all the what-ifs, the how-it-happened, the go-with-the-flow. I hate that I am undeserving of this hatred, but it never left me since the day it entered.I am mad because all my life, I have been wondering what I do to de
I thought he would slap me again but I was wrong. He suddenly turned his back on me. My eyes widened when I saw that he was carrying that baseball bat back."Do you know what this is? This is the only thing that killed your mom back then. Just like you, she was begging for her life. Funny how the most dangerous assassin of your family begged her life for me when I was just a kid back then," he said and his laughter echoed in that room.I didn't know what else I was going to do during those hours. My tears just kept flowing as I felt the seeming numbness of my whole body. I tried to stand up which I did but it wasn't long before Ares grabbed my hair again and violently threw me on the folding bed.There I felt an intense pain in my abdomen that seemed to be cutting into it.
"What is this?" I asked full of confusion."Ana, read it first," said Elena so I shook my head."Can't you just tell me everything I need to know? I'm so confused! What the hell is happening? Why am I here? What's going on? I don't understand..." I hissed at them. The corners of my eyes are starting to heat up again."Ares abducted you three days ago. He was the one who shot you, Anastacia. Leon found you bleeding at the main entrance of Terra Verde." Grandpa Leoncio answered.I could feel my heartbeat slowing down when I heard that. Before I could even react, the doctor sneezed again so I focused my eyes on him."I know this is not the right time to tell you this, but it's better for you to know everything. You had a miscarr
For a few more moments, I could only hear sobs in that room even the sound of the machine attached to him. I felt the movement of his hand I was holding, so I was alert and quickly looked up at him. My eyes watered when I saw him staring at me with a small smile on his face."H-Hector!" I exclaimed and cried again. "W-what happened? Why… Who did this to you?""I-I'm sorry…" he said in his hoarse voice so I was stunned and looked up at him again. His eyes were full of guilt as he looked at me."I-I'm sorry I didn't get to protect you. I'm sorry I was late… again. I'm sorry, Solei. I'm sorry," he said repeatedly and his eyes finally blinked because of the tears that came out of there.There was some kind of pain that drew in my heart as I watched him. He was so remorseful that he started to cry like this. Only now have I seen this side of him. I always see him as a cold, stone-hearted man. I don't know how I'm going to feel but I feel like I'm hurting too."I fucking tried to save you.
When I decided to leave the city almost six years ago, I thought I would leave everything so that I could start a new memory. I thought I completely left my young and shattered heart along with the memories of him.I learned to be happy alone despite all that had happened and been done to me by the people I loved so wholeheartedly. I decided to be happy alone and that only changed when I gave birth to Amari.I never thought I would be completely and truly happy when I gave birth to my daughter. I didn't even think she could give light back to my whole life despite it being dark. She came to me as I was drowning in darkness. She came to me as I was slowly exhausted and consumed by grief.My Amari saved me from drowning in the lake of sorrow and rage - and she deserves a complete and happy family that I thought I couldn't give her.I sighed when I saw how Hector came down and finally knelt near the door of the room while staring at my daughter. His eyes wer
For the nth time, he didn't answer and didn't even look at me so I was completely weak while feeling so many frustrations for myself. The corners of my eyes began to heat up and I knew for one reason that I would burst into tears again."I… I was planning to tell you about her when I first found out I was pregnant. That was the day you left. That was the day your mom told me to stay away from you because you would never come back to me. I… I was just so scared. I was afraid you might not accept her and just leave as you did to me before so I didn't... I decided not to tell you. I'm sorry… Please, talk to me. I didn't mean to…" I said and kept crying while holding him on his shoulder.I rubbed one hand all over my face and kept the sobs out of my mouth because Amari might wake up. But I feel like my heart is increasingly divided into a million pieces because of the restraint not to get hurt."I-I was just scared. That she might be&hell
"Who is a fool to admit his sin, right? Anyway, tell mama, whatever papa left me before he died, I didn't ask him for that. Think about it, why didn't he leave you at least a little bit?" I asked her, and she looked back at me.It was so sharp that it seemed like she wanted to hurt me but she couldn't. "How fucking dare you! Shut your mouth or else— ""Shut it, Agatha. Remember you are in my office." Ulysses interrupted. That's when I just remembered why we came here.For a moment, I looked at Hector who remained behind me. He just smiled at me sparingly and even touched me on the shoulder. I sighed violently and turned to Ulysses.I found out that my mother had filed a lawsuit against me because of the inheritances left to me by my father. I didn't know everything about it because Ulysses said I had a big fight. Hector told me the same thing.When we finished our short conversation, I invited him to go home because I was still worried about
"Why didn't you tell him where we are going? He's worried sick, Ana," Leon said immediately while we were in the middle of our way.I ignored what he said. I picked up my cell phone when it rang and there I saw a text from the same number again.Unknown NumberAre you on your way?To Unknown Numberyes"He doesn't need to know anymore. It's not that important," I replied and looked out the window."If it's not important, why are you going? What if it's just a troll?"Then it's much better. I'd be more at peace if it wasn't true and I was just being lied to. My mind would be calmer in case it wasn't true. I have nothing to lose if I shoot."Just be mindful of your surroundings, Ana, if you don't want me to go with you inside," Leon told me when we arrived at the Aragon Estate.I nodded at him and looked up at this super-tall building. This is different from the company where I used
