Gracelyn's POV " If I pass the board exam,promise me you'll be my girlfriend again. Deal?". I've been looking at the screen of my cellphone for a couple of minutes already, reading his message over and over but can't come up with a reply. I have doubts. What if he'll end up hurting me agin for the nth time? Does he really loves me that's why he wants me back... or he just needs me---again? Funny that I'm questioning his intent in wanting me back when in the past years I devoted my love to him without a doubt. Truly, fully trusting someone is dangerous. Very dangerous that you lose yourself in the process and doesn't even know if you can bring your self back. I was in college when I met him. We are in the same university and took the same course."Are you blind !?", A tall man with toned body and curly hair asked me after bumping at him. This man sure is grumpy." Ahm. N-no?", I replied nervously. My hands are shaking. I'm only five feet tall and he is a six footer. He is towering

"We saw that", Izzy and Shirly teased. I didn't know they followed me here. I rolled my eyes at them.Thankfully the shaking stopped and we got out of the building just fine. No major damages occurred."What you saw was nothing!", I said but their teasing didn't stopped."You look tense", Shirly commented."It is because of Greg", Izzy whispered."Guys, please. Stop with the teasing ", I pleaded but they just grinned at me. "Then why can't you look at us in the eye?",Shirly smiles widely. "Don't smile like that it makes you more ugly", I tried to change the topic. " Dont change the topic. I know that I'm beautiful inside out", says Shirly and wink. I can't win over this two at all. Especially, they joined forces."Hi guys ! ", Melo greeted. "are you all okay?", he asked concerned while checking on us."We're fine
Gracelyn's POV It's a bit chilly today. I want to be tuck under my blanket all day. Sleep peacefully and dream of many woderful things. Oh, how good that would be but I have to force myself to get out of bed and prepare for school. It's monday morning. I was walking on the corridor going to our room when I heard students mumbling about a duel taking place on the school's oval. I was going to ignore it since it's none of my business when I heard familiar names -Greg and Melo!. I run towards the oval texting Izzy and Shirly on the way. What are those two thinking ! Having a duel ? For what reason?Melo's PovHeadache. I don't think I can go to school today. This hang over is killing me. Wait, did I do something wrong last night?I feel weird. Something is off.

You are not supposed to be cleaning", I scolded."Greg didn't come and you can't clean this all by yourself. Well, It will take you till past ten to clean this all." She grabbed the mop back.That j*rk Greg didn't come. I don't know why.He should be the one.cleaning with me not Gracelyn. She didn't even do anything bad to deserve this.After we cleaned all the lavatories inside the school. We keep the cleaning materials and ready to go home." Thanks for today", I chirped."It's what friends do""I'm really sorry for what happened. I truly am.," I said sincerely."Just don't do it again" she smile." I wont". I smile back at her."Do you still have a spare time ?","I do . why ?""I want.to show you something""Where?", she asked curiously."Just relax and follow me", I said and grab her hands.I let her ride in my bike with
Greg's POV "Hey guys", I said as I approach Kevin,Fin and Roger. One bottle of black label is already opened. "I see.You started without me". I fakely sulked."We had waited for you for 30 minutes man", Kevin said while tapping my shoulder."What took you so long ?", Fin asked.My girlfriend, Lexa , asked me to meet her. She wants us back together. I met with her because I miss her too but I didn't get back with her. I am playing hard to get. She is my girlfriend since highschool. She is tall, fair skin, and beautiful. I can't just easily throw those years of relationship with her even if we broke up many times. I know I'm being sentimental but her unconditional love for me keeps me going. My parents went abroad when I was just little. My grandma was the one who raised me. They came back when I'm already old enough to take care of myself. They weren't their when the school asked me to bring my parents with me for meetings, family day and other school activities. They weren't their w

Maybe they have been worrying but I dont wanna talk to either of them at this moment. Specially mom, I am tired of hearing her pleading seeing her solemn face.knock ! knock !"Who is it ?", I shouted as I get out of bed and open the main door. I am staying at a little apartment. The house I rent is a bungalow divided into two. I rent the other side and another student in the university occupies the other side."Mom?", I am shocked seeing her in front of my door."I came because you weren't answering any of my calls. I am worried that you're sick or worse got missing", she explained while entering. I rolled my eyeballs."I am fine. Now, you can go", I hissed.She looked at me teary-eyed. I look away. I don't want to see her crying,it makes me wanna hug her tightly and don't want to do that. I'm still angry at her- at them for leaving me
Greg's Pov"You're place is a mess ! You should clean. Not beacuse you're a man that gives you the reason not to clean. You should learn all the household chores so that if you have a family of your own you know how to help your wife inside the house", Grandma has been ranting for hours already since she arrived.She is ranting about the mess.She is ranting about me not conserving water and electricity.She is ranting about the piled up unwashed dishes and many more. I lazily sat on the couch and listened to all her rantings. I want to escape and go to my room but grandma will surely follow me and pinch me in the ear while pulling me back towards the living room."Are you listening to me?", she asked putting her hands an her hips and eyeing me."Yes grandma", I mumbled like an obedient six year old child.How was school?" she suddenly blurted out.I choked from the juice I am drinking."How many times did you get absent?", she asked furiously.I showed her my two fingers . I slowly s
Gracelyn's PovI opened my eyes and.looked at the window .The rain stopped already but the sky is still dark. It's a bit chilly and windy. I stretched my arms and feet but was shocked when I heard a thud. What was that ?"Ouch !", Its Greg?I get up and help him sit on the couch."Why do you like hurting me this much !", he grunts."I'm sorry... again", I said sheepishly.He pulled me towards him."Hurt me again I'll kiss you", he warned me."Or maybe .. you want to get my attention so that I'll kiss you?", he teased.What a total hmp!I elbowed him hard and run away from him but he catches me.He hug me from the back and whisper in my ear " don't try me". "L-let go. I should go home. I have some matters to attend to", I swallowed hard. "Are you making excuses babe?", he.whispered again"N-no", I said and went inside the bathroom to change. Good thing he has a dryer.When I went out of the bathroom he is not in the living room .I dashed out of the door when I put my shoes on.We have
Greg's POVWhen we met Gracelyn and Chris at the Disneyland it bothered me a lot that I couldn't sleep that night. I know something is off but I couldn't figure it out. I don't want Riza to know so I just acted normally. When they came here at the house, I felt like I've known Gracelyn all my life but I couldn't remember anything about her. Seeing her with Chris makes my heart ache but I don't know why.When I found out that Chris was just her friend I rejoice which it shouldn't be. I am already a married man for goodness sake. Many things were bothering me since I met them. I felt emotions I shouldn't have felt. But when my parents arrived all the things that bothered me came to light. I don't know if I should hate my parents for it. I don't know if I should follow Gracelyn when she walked out on us or stay with Riza. Due to the mixed emotions that I felt, I locked myself in the guest room."Greg, please open the door." Riza asked but I didn't dare move from my spot.I heard her si
Gracelyn's POVI walked out of their house because I couldn't face them anymore. I don't want to hear their excuses anymore or else I am gonna blame myself for what happen. I don't want to be in a hell hole of depression again because I have a daughter to take care of."Mommy, why are you crying? Why are all shouting a while ago?" Lyca innocently asked while wiping my tears.I hugged her tightly and continue crying. Chris caressed my back. I didn't know that he followed us."Let's go home." I said to him and he nodded without a word.He scoop Lyca in his arms and put his other arm on my shoulder. "Do you want to drink?" Chris propose after he lay Lyca down on the bed. She fall asleep in Chris arms. "Yes please." I said and we went downstairs."I wouldn't be asking you if you are okay because I know you are not. I wouldn't be asking questions. I want you to voluntarily express it but if you don't want to it's okay, I won't force you to. I just want to tell you that it's not your fau
Eloy's POVUpon seeing Gracelyn all the things we did in the past has scared me. It hunts me every night and it scares me that someday this would happen. I want to hide and never to talk to her but I know she needs to know. She deserve to know what happened with in the past four years. But I didn't know how to start."Eloy--- Gracelyn??" It's Tina. "Surprise." Gracelyn said."Come on here honey." I asked my wife and she sat beside me across Gracelyn."Why are you here? Why did you even show up?!" My wife said in a shaky voice full of hatred. She is blaming Gracelyn of Greg's accident. We found out that Greg has been feeling stressed and worn out due to the situation their family is in. Gracelyn isn't talking to Greg and was depressed because of her dad's demise. Greg went out of the house that night because they have a little quarrel. Gracelyn doesn't want to go for a psychiatric check up. Partly, we are also to be blame because we aren't their to guide them. On the contrary, my wif
Gracelyn's POV"How are you feeling?" Christ asked me. I look at him not knowing what to say. We are at the terrace of his house drinking wine. The view is beautiful but it isn't enough to ease the pain and betrayal that I feel right now. So this is what I get for patiently waiting. "I got their number, in case you want to call them."I went inside. It's getting chilly."I don't know if I want to meet Greg again."I replied honestly."But you deserve to know the truth. You've waited for him for four long years.""His parents buried that truth long time ago. Even if let's say Greg lost his memory, his parents didn't. They know that he has a wife and a daughter waiting for him. Why let him have a second family?""I don't know Gracelyn." I looked at Chris."I am sorry that I am venting out to you."He shrugged and smile."Maybe, I really should give them a call."I decided and asked their number. "Hi! This is Gracelyn, Christ companion. We meet at the Disneyland a while ago. We are a

I yawned and stretched before climbing down my bed. "Okay fine. I am awake.""Let's go to the kitchen." She cheerfully said and pulled me. I thought her mom is already awake but when we went in the kitchen no one is there except the cook. The cook is already cooking some dishes."Are you the one who requested those dishes?" I asked Lyca. She nodded and smile."I want us to go to the Disneyland early. I want to enjoy and roam the whole day." She said which made me smile at her and gently pinch her chubby cheeks."Where is your mom?"

I feel pity for my daughter that troubles and problems like this seemed to love her but I am praying to God to give her strength to face this things. Doctors and nurses are going back in forth here but they say the same thing all the time. I went out of the room for a while to eat breakfast outside. They don't serve foods for the watchers here.
