Falling into a pit where there is no point of turning back. She's trapped and can't even escape her own feelings. Worse yet, she discovered that the man she most desired was already married.

View MoreChapter 17Kathleen really enjoyed the street foods she ate. Aside from balut, Janette also bought other snacks being sold along the roadside. Good thing, she liked all the street food that Janette recommended to her.She had already drunk two bottles of beer, but she wasn’t tipsy yet."Let's go home. I'm tired," said Gabrielle.Janette immediately frowned, but she didn’t protest."Sure," she simply agreed, knowing that if she complained, she might get scolded.They went home, and on the way, Janette fell asleep in the back seat."She's totally drunk," Kathleen commented with a wide grin."You seem like you're having fun," Gabrielle replied."I am having fun. At least, for a while, I can forget my problems, right? Especially the way you keep bossing me around and controlling my life?" she said, rolling her eyes.Gabrielle scoffed at her words."I'm not controlling your life. My job is just to keep you safe.""Yeah! What a great excuse! Of course!""Are you drunk?" he asked, furrowing
Chapter 16"SISTER KATHLEEN, it's time to eat!" Janette called out to her. That snapped her back to reality.She quickly left the room and acted normal as she headed to the kitchen. She bit her lower lip when she saw that she was about to sit next to Gabrielle. Darn, Kathleen! Why are you suddenly feeling awkward now? What's wrong with you? Her mind screamed. She closed her eyes tightly and inhaled deeply. Maybe she was just overthinking.Gabrielle noticed her still standing, so he moved slightly to make space for her. She then silently sat beside him without even glancing in his direction.Aling Susana served her food, and soon, everyone started eating. She started eating too, but she felt like she was losing her appetite. Unconsciously, she let out a sigh."What's wrong?" Gabrielle suddenly asked.She lifted her head and quickly shook her head. That’s when she realized that they were the only ones left at the dining table. She despaired. She had been too lost in thought to notice he
Chapter 15Kathleen woke up early before dawn. She had fallen asleep early the night before, so it was no surprise that she was up so soon.She sat up and immediately noticed that Gabrielle was no longer beside her. She shrugged. Why should she care if he was gone? It’s not like he cared about how she felt. She scoffed at her own thoughts.Grabbing her jacket, she put it on and stepped outside the house. She settled onto the swing. The sun was about to rise, so she wasn’t afraid to be alone.She gently swayed back and forth.That was when she noticed Gabrielle’s car pulling into the driveway. She hadn’t even realized he had left. Or maybe she was just too preoccupied to notice.Gabrielle got out of the car, carrying some bags. She raised an eyebrow, growing curious about where he had been.Kathleen wet her dry lips as Gabrielle spotted her and walked toward her.“What are you doing out here?” he asked in a firm voice.“Why? Am I not even allowed to sit on the swing now?” she retorted
Chapter 14 KATHLEEN was just looking at them intently. They are super busy preparing their dinner. She bit her bottom lip hard. She looked like their employer. "Mom, do you want me to help you?" she asked Susana. "Please don't Kathleen. Just sit there. This beef stew I'm cooking is about to finish," Susana replied, smiling at her. She smiled at her and just sat down, waiting. Gabrielle suddenly came and sat in the chair opposite to her. "Hello brother Gabrielle!" Janette greeted him. Gabrielle didn't respond and just looked at her. She raised her left eyebrow."What!?" she asked him in a low voice. "We'll talk later," he plainly said. She just rolled his eyes. Susana and Janette had already finished their preparations so they sat down. Janette sat next to her. Efren also arrived and they had dinner together. While eating, Janette kept glancing at her. Kathleen felt very awkward but she didn't ask Janette. Because Gabrielle was in front of them. He might think that she is gossip
Chapter 13 "What are you doing?" "Oh, frog! Shit!" she exclaimed as she clutched her chest. She was startled. She immediately turned to Gabrielle. "Freak!" she annoyingly said and raised her brow on him. But she stopped when she immediately noticed the towel and blue dress he was holding. Gabrielle's eyes narrowed at her. "What are you getting?" he asked as he approached her. He even pulled her hand. "Can't you see it? It's stones?" "I'm not blind. What are you going to do with these stones?" "Why? What do you care what I will do to these stones?" "I forbid you to do whatever you want to do." She scoffs. "You're too much of a killjoy and overreacting. Is Mother Nature your girlfriend to stop me from picking rocks?" She asked, smirking. "Shut up. You have no use for that either. You're not in your workplace." "Ah, so I have to go to the shop first before I pick up the stones. You know what? You think so abnormally too, don't you know that? You're so hard to talk to! Ugh! I'm
Chapter 12 AFTER she and Gabrielle had a quarrel, Susana called them for lunch. She immediately took action and went to the kitchen. Gabrielle was already at the table, eating. She sat next to him without saying a word. She was stunned when he suddenly served her food on her plate. "I can handle it myself," she said immediately and took the spoon. He didn't insist then and just let her. She ate quietly and so did Susana. Few minutes later, Susana suddenly became silent and simply turned to her when she raised her head. "Did you fight again? The two of you?" Susana suddenly asked. She swallowed hard and immediately drank water. "No. We're not," Gabrielle answered simply. Kathleen twitched her lips for disagreeing with what he said. "How was your trip at the market? Did you enjoy yourself there Kathleen?" said Susana. She was about to answer when Gabrielle suddenly turned to her. He stared at her evilly. She was almost in agony. She faced Susana. "It's fine, mom…" she said and sm
Chapter 11 KATHLEEN feels very annoyed now because he humiliated her. "Me? A maid!? What the fuck is he talking about!? I'm not his fucking maid!" she exclaims in annoyance to the void. She then stood up and slightly faced the side mirror of the car to check her appearance. She looked more decent wearing her beautiful branded dress. Her makeup is fine and she doesn't look haggard. But why the hell is Gabrielle looking down at her beauty!? Damn it! That made her more pissed! She kicked the tire of Gabrielle's car in annoyance. "You're bull shit Gabrielle! Bull shit!" she reaped. "Are you mad about what happened earlier?" Gabrielle suddenly spoke behind her. She was startled and clutched her chest. She inhaled and exhaled deeply before she faced him. "Open this goddamn car," she ordered it firmly. Gabrielle shakes his head but still obliges to her command. Gabrielle opened the car door and she immediately got inside. Gabrielle also turned around on the other side and immediately
Chapter 10 WHEN they got to town, Kathleen almost winced because of the amount of people she saw. "What's with that face? Are you acting again?" Gabrielle turned to her after turning off the car's engine. "I'm not! You're really judgmental! I was just surprised because I thought your place was very remote, because the houses were far away. Then I'll see here, there are still a lot of people," she answered while still focusing attention on people who are busy in their lives. "You're just ignorant," Gabrielle commented to her with a frown. She squinted and rolled her eyes at him. And before she could react, he immediately went outside of the car. She just sighed in annoyance. She also got out of the car. She looked for Gabrielle and was surprised because he was right behind her. "Damn it!" she moaned weakly while touching her chest. "Avoid drinking so much coffee. You're getting too nervous," Gabrielle said while frowning at her again. She was so annoyed and that caused her to be
Chapter 9 THE next day Kathleen woke up early because she didn't sleep well. Because she constantly feasts on mosquitoes. She also constantly scratches her arms and legs. When she's finally fully wide awake, Gabrielle is no longer by her side. She got up and left the room. She went down the stairs while she was still constantly scratching both of her arms. "Good morning, Kathleen. Did you sleep well?" Susana greeted her with a sweet smile on her face. She was carrying a bag and looked like she had just come from the wet market. "It's fine," she replied but still didn't want to stop scratching her arms."Wait, what happened to your arms?" said Susana while examining her arms. "My God! You have so many mosquito bites. Didn't you and Gabrielle use a mosquito net last night?" She quickly shook her head. "Oh dear! Wait, I'll get you an ointment from my room." "Mom, I'm okay. You don't have to worry about me," she immediately stopped Susana but the old lady didn't listen to her. Gab
Chapter 1 KATHLEEN was very tipsy at this moment. She wants to get lost in the club and forget what she and his father talked about yesterday about this marriage set up plan. Yes! She got him! Maybe he got tired of saying that she will get married at the right age and shoot! She's now twenty-nine years old and no man ever touches her virgin body! Can her father blame her? Sorry but she was too picky choosing for her forever! Gross! Her belief in life is that it is good to live as a single person. She laughed looking at Nica cursing Sheena. They were arguing about who first owned the man named Rolando. "Why fight for a man when you can have those men out there?" She even pointed to the men at the other table. Edralyn sat beside her. "You won't understand those two if you don't try to have a boyfriend," Edralyn said and giggled. It seems that she is right as well as her other two friends. She slouched her weight onto the couch. "All of you know me. I can only flirt but give it up, ...
