PICTURE OF YOU 32 HEARTBREAKING TO WATCH
LYZAThe women looked at me as soon as I occupied one of the seats in the shaded area. They all look like they are in their late thirties and forties while I am a teenager. I smiled timidly at them and refocused on the men howling those heavy tubs.I wondered how Matthew endured this. He used to live that someone handed him everything he needed, but now, he's working hard to earn money for both of us. Tears brimmed my eyes, but I blinked them away. I didn't want Matthew to worry. He was exhausted to add his worriesAt exactly eight in the morning, a bell sounded, and the men stopped what they were doing. One by one, they approached us. I searched where Matthew was among them, and I sadly smiled when I saw him approaching me with a smile on his lips despite how messy and exhausted he was. I held his hand and pulled him to sit beside me. I removed his jacket and the clothes that he used to cover his head and wiped his face with a towel I brought, then offered him a bottle of water whil
PICTURE OF YOU 33 MY LUCKY STAR
ABBYWe left the restaurant full of happiness. My heart is rejoicing. Matthew won't be suffering by carrying those heavy tubs of fish every day, and it lifted the heavy burden in my heart. My arms wrapped tightly around his waist, with my face leaning on his back as we drove home. I feel so relieved. We are lucky to meet Matthew's boss today. They are so Kind, and I am happy they peptide us and give Matthew a lighter job. Now, I could sleep peacefully knowing Matthew got a better job. Matthew picked me up from his bike when he arrived home and carried me inside our home. We both laughed when we reached inside. He put me down in the living room and wrapped his arms around me. "We are blessed to meet Sir Patrick and Ma'am Celeste. You are my lucky star. You came, Sir Patrick offered me a better, and you also found a job in one day—my lucky star. "I'm not. It was just a coincidence. Even if I don't come, I'm sure Sir Patrick and Ma'am Celestel will still offer you a job in their offi

ABBYAfter the delivery men left, Matthew and I went to the market. "Babe, I think you need to buy new clothes. You should wear formal clothes when going to the office. Let's buy three pairs of long sleeves, pants, and black shoes.""Okay. I'm also thinking that. "Let's buy your clothes before we buy the ingredients I need later. ""Okay. But you choose for me." He grinned. "Okay, I will. Let's go." We went to the clothing store and looked for his long sleeves and pants. I picked white, sky blue, a checkered color. His pants are two black and one brown."Do you like what I choose? ""I like whatever you choose for me. Can we buy a bag, too? "Okay, you choose your bag and the shoes. " "After we bought Matthew's things, we headed to the market to buy the ingredients I needed for our dinner later. We can't use the fridge tonight. The delivery men said to let it rest before turning it on. So we can use it by tomorrow. "We are lucky to meet Sir Patrick and Ma'am Celeste. " I said as

Matthew even plans to export their product abroad. He wanted their product to be known not only locally but overseas, too. Patrick and Celeste adore him and Abby, who are the constant visitors of Patrick and Celeste's home. Matthew and Abby live a happy life for almost two years. One day, while Abby and Matthew were having lunch at Patrick and Celeste's residence, Abby fainted, causing everyone to panic.She was brought to the Hospital with Matthew, dying of worries. It was the first time Abby got sick, and it scared him. "Matthew, can you sit down? You're making me dizzy." Celeste scolded Matthew, pacing back and forth before her and his husband."I'm scared, I'm worried. Abby, she's okay, right? I saw her throw up a few days ago, but she never told me that she was sick. She said she ate somethin

Abby glanced at Patrick beside her with eyes brimming with tears, and he smiled at her. "Stop crying. You'll ruin your makeup, and it's bad for my grandchild." A sob escaped from her lips, and she wrapped her arms around him. "Keep moving. Matthew might think you don't want to marry him." He whispered. Abby pulled away from the hug and composed herself. They continue moving until they reach in front of Matthew. Abby quickly threw herself at him and cried.,"Hey, Sorry for not giving you a proper proposal and going straight to the wedding. I..."You sneaky ass." Abby hissed, then smack him. Everyone gasped for a few seconds, then oh and laughed when she crashed her lips at him, then pulled away and dragged the still-stunned Matthew in front of the priest."Father, you can start the wedding now." She said, wiping her tears again. Matthew chuckled beside her, as well as the people around them, including the priest. The wedding ended with full of laughter, with a big feast after. Patrick
PICTURE OF YOU 37 ACCIDENT
"Wake up, my lovely wife," Matthew whispered, kissing Abby's forehead. He was already dressed up and ready to leave. "Abby, babe, wake up. I'm leaving." He pecked her pouting lips and tenderly caressed her face. Abby opened her eyes, and he smiled and pecked her lips. "Good morning." He helped her to sit, and he sat beside her. "Morning! Babe." She smiled and wrapped her arm around his neck, leaning her head on his shoulder. He kissed the crown of her head and flattened her messy hair. "I'm leaving." He whispered. She pulled away from the hug, and he brushed the loose hair away from her face. "You want me to buy you something? Food, clothes, or things we need for baby Ara?""We already have everything. Just come back home as soon as possible.""Okay, eat your breakfast later. Don't skip meals.""Okay, Daddy." She teased. He smiled and gathered her in his arms again. "Be careful when you walk around, and don't tire yourself so much." Abby smiled and nodded her head. "Wait for me la
PICTURE OF YOU 38 MATTHEW IS DEAD
ABBYI heard whispered and hush voices around me, but my body felt heavy and numb. Even my eyelids, I can't open them. It felt like a ton of weight was weighing them down. I tried to move my fingers, but even that was futile. I attempted to make a sound, but nothing came out.I gave up and used my sense of hearing to know what was happening around me. A loud cry echoed around, and I cringed, then I gasped. A baby? My baby. I tried my hardest to move and open my eyes when another painful cry sounded, and I heard someone come in and try to hush the baby."Hush baby. Mommy will wake up soon." Auntie?? I forced my finger to move, and I heard the beeping sound pick up, maybe my heart monitor. "Patrick called the nurse Abby's heart monitor_ I heard feet scamper away, Auntie Celeste sob, and the baby cry echoed around me again. I tried to move my finger again, and I made a little movement. I heard feet nearing, and after a few seconds, my one eye was forced open, and a blinding light flashed
PICTURE OF YOU 39 RETURNING TO THE CITY
ABBY"Can I hold her, Aunty? Aunty Celeste hesitated while trying to calm the bawling Arabella in her arms. "Let me hold her, Aunty. I'm fine now." I whispered, wiping my tears away and leaning my back on the headboard of my bed to support my body. Aunty Celeste hesitantly placed the bawling Arabella in my arms and put a pillow on my back. She cried hard, flailing her arms and legs as if someone was hurting her. I smiled and tenderly wiped her tears, and she quickly stopped crying. "I'll just make her some formula. Maybe she was hungry." Aunty said and went to the corner and pulled a milk bottle flask and a milk powder. "Hello, Arabella. I am your mommy. " I smile and poke her nose. She let out a gurgling sound, crunching her nose while looking at me. She looks so cute. Even though she's only three months old, she's a bit bigger than her age. Her cheek was rosy and chubby, with a thin hair on her head. She's wearing a pink onesie with a bunny printed on it. "Your Daddy already left

PICTURE OF YOU 53 Finally
It was already six in the evening when a knock at the door came, and when Matthew opened it, Uncle Felix and Aunty Celeste stood outside the door, eyes both wide open in shock. "Matthew? " "Aunty, Uncle." "Oh my god." Aunty Celeste cried and wrapped her arms around Matthew, and Uncle Felux joined them, also crying. "You're alive. How did it happen?" "Come inside, and I'll tell you everything." Matthew opens the door wider to let them in. Uncle and Aunty settled on the couch while Mathew and I sat on the edge of Arabella's bed facing them. Matthew told them everything that happened since the day he woke up in the Hospital without any memory of us until the day he regained his memories. After he told them, Aunty Celeste was crying so much with Uncle's arms around her also crying. "I'm so happy that you're back now; without your daughter, I don't know what will happen to Abby after we receive the news that you are already dead. Lucky Arabella was with her." Matthew's
PICTURE OF YOU 52 HOSTAGE
ABBYIt felt like the whole world fell over me. I staggered backward, but thankfully Matthew quickly held me."Sarah, How did this thing happen? You're at the playground across the street. How you're here?" I screamed, now trembling in fear."Sorry, ma'am, but Arabella wanted to come here because it's scorching outside. We only wanted to wait in the lobby, but that girl and the police came." Sarah explained, crying."Harry, call the head of security now!!! Matthew demanded. Everyone inside the conference room turned quiet instantly. Only my sob and Harry's voice, who was talking to the head of security over the phone, were heard, but Matthew snatched the phone from his hold."Block all the exits of the building now, and make sure Kayla can't step out of this building because the minute she is out, all of you will be jobless." He screamed and ended the call."I need to see Arabella." I cried, dragged Matthew out of the conference room, and ran to the lobby."Mommy, Daddy!! Arabella cri
PICTURE OF YOU 51 SHAREHOLDERS MEETING
MATTHEW After I left Abby and Arabella, I went straight to my unit, and as soon as I opened the door, Kayla's glaring eyes greeted me. "Where have you been? You're not answering my call, and your assistant doesn't know where you are. And you don't appear in our wedding rehearsal. You've gone for two nights and one day, and you don't even return my call. Where have you been, Matthew?" "None of your business, so shut up. You're ruining my day this early morning." I stormed inside my room, locking it. "Matthew! Matthew! Open this damn door." She screamed, banging on my door. I ignored her and hurriedly shoved the papers I needed inside the bag and the clothes to change before I opened the door. Walking past her, she grabbed my wrist, and I quickly pulled it away from her. I, feeling disgusted. "What's wrong, babe? What did I do wrong? Why you're avoiding me? What happened?" She asked, tears rolling down her face. If I still don't recall my memories, I'm sure I will fall for her
PICTURE OF YOU 50 HAPPY FAMILY
MATTHEW After dinner, I helped Arabella wash up and change into her pajamas despite her and Abby's protest, saying she could do it herself, but I ignored them. I want to do things I haven't done since the day she was born. "After changing our sleepwear, I wore Abby's oversized shirt and jersey shorts. Yes, until now, she still had those jerseys in her closet, but she wasn't wearing them anymore when she slept. She was now wearing nighties. I never thought she would wear this kind of clothing when she slept. I don't complain, by the way. Actually, I like it. Right now, she's wearing silk purple see-through nighties that reach an inch above her knees, and she looks so sexy in them. Her pale skin stands out more, and I can see the outline of her body through the fabric. "Ouch!!! Hey, why did you poke my forehead." "Stop staring." She rolled her eyes and slipped under the cover beside me. "I just stared at what was displayed in front of me." I chuckled, earning a pinch on m

ABBYGAIL "Bella, baby, come downstairs for a while. Daddy wants to ask you something." I called up and slapped his hand that crawled under my shirt and threw him a glare but pretended he did nothing. I pinch his side, earning a kiss on my cheek. After a minute, Arabella came running down the stairs. "Hey, don't run." Matthew races to the bottom of the stairs to catch Arabella in fear. But Arabella only giggled and jumped to her father's arm. "Hey, careful there, little one. You might fall off the stairs." Matthew kissed her cheek and returned to my side. "I'm a big girl now, and I always run up and down the stairs and never fell even once. I'm careful while running on the stairs, Daddy." Arabella reasoned out. Matthew sigh. "Accidents always happen, Baby, so please don't stop making Daddy, Okay?" "I'll be extra careful, Daddy, so that you won't worry. What do you want to ask me about Daddy?" "Do you want to eat lunch outside, Princess? Then let's go to the park and eat

ABBYGAIL"Did you contact Matthew?" I asked Mia for the nth time now. I'm so worried right now. Since he walked out of the clinic, I felt so scared, and to add to it, his assistant couldn't contact him."Abby, can you contact him yourself? Andrew is now glaring at me because I keep going to the bathroom to answer your call. I will give you the number of his assistant, or you can call him again tomorrow. It's already late, Abby. Maybe he was already sleeping." I bit my lips, but maybe Mia was right."Okay, Mia. I'm sorry for bothering you. Just send me his assistant's and Matthew's numbers, and I'll try to contact him tomorrow.""Okay. You rest now, Abby. It's already one in the morning.""Okay. Good night, Mia, thank you.""Don't mention it. Now rest.""Okay. Bye Mia.""Bye."I lay beside Arabella with my arms around her. Your daddy is back, baby, and I'm sure after you told him your father's name, I know he regained some of his memories. But why he left? But even though he didn't ack
PICTURE OF YOU 47 BABE
MatthewI aimlessly walked with no direction, reminiscing our memories. I smiled at how happy and content with our life back then. I remember when we first made love. That night was the happiest moment of my life, the day of our wedding, and when I discovered Abby was pregnant with our first baby. Those memories are my most treasured but forgotten. I wiped my tears but abruptly stopped when I found my surroundings familiar.I'd been walking for over an hour, and my legs were already burning and getting dark. Slowly, I made my way to the familiar building before me, the building that keeps the memories of how I fell in love with Abby. I don't know if my parents already sold this building or if it is still under my name. I hope it's still mine because Abby and I have many happy memories here.I made my way to the entrance of the building and stepped inside."Matthew. It's been a long time, sir." The guard at the entrance greeted me, smiling. I guess the fake news of my death didn't r
PICTURE OF YOU 46 I'M BACK, BABE
MATTHEWWe arrived at the clinic with Arabella still in my arms. She doesn't want to let go. I didn't complain because I felt comfortable holding her, and I felt warmth in my heart because she kept kissing me. She's a sweet and lovely child. I hope I can have a daughter as sweet as her."What happened to our beautiful Princess? Why you're pale and have tears in your eyes? You even have bruises on your knees?" Can you lie down, Princess, so I can see if check on you? " The Doctor tenderly asked her. "No! I only want Daddy to carry me." The Doctor looked at Miss Park frowning, but she only smiled at her. "I fell on the floor earlier; that's why I have a bruise on my knees," Arabella murmured."I'll sit, and you sit on my lap. Is it okay for you, Princess?" Arabella nodded, smiling.I sat on the edge of the bed and sat her sideward on my lap. The Doctor checked her pulse and heartbeat, and she looked at Miss Park after. "What?" Miss Park mouthed."Her heartbeat is irregular, uneven br
PICTURE OF YOU 45 WHY?
MATTHEW"She brings back my happiness." I wondered why she said that but didn't question further. I'm scared that she might think that I'm invading her privacy. "Babe! I think the merging with Arabella wasn't right." Kayla voiced out, and I snapped my eyes at her."And why is that Kayla? I'm helping him. First, I'm helping him with his business. Second, I'll vote for him to become the CEO, and third, I'm helping him remove a termite in his company." Mrs. Arevalo chuckled when Kayla threw her a death glare. What was she talking about? Who is the termite, she was saying? Kayla? But why? How can she call her that? Kayla has been the one helping me these past months."Drink your coffee while it is hot," Abbygail said as soon as the staff served our coffee. I open my mouth to defend Kayla, but how can I when I don't remember the past? I shook my head, picked up the cup of coffee, and brought it to my lips, thinking whether Miss Park was telling the truth or not. I hate that my memories ha
