“Ulie…” I can’t utter anything but his name.
Ulie’s words are giving so much warmth to my heart. He sounded so sincere. I can’t help myself but grab his face and give him a soft kiss. I was hoping that through my kiss he was able to feel the words I can’t utter.
“I will never marry anyone but you, my Quinn. Don’t ever forget that.” Ulie added.
I nodded at him. He went to me again and kiss me, a more passionate kiss. I kiss him back with the same passion and intensity.
“I love you, Penelope Quinn Cabello,” Ulie said after our kiss.
I smile at him and caress his face. “I love you too Kade Ulysses Escarrer.”

Despite the buzz that Hadley created, our family was not affected. We live as if nothing happens. Ulie and I decided to just ignore all Hadley’s antics. As long as we know what the truth is, we don’t need to be affected by her. If we reacted to her schemes, then she will just continue to push it. Hadley should realize that she has a zero chance to win Ulie. Today is Saturday, one of our favorite days of the week. But Sunday is our most favorite day of the week because aside from our family bonding, it is also a day to worship God. We have so many things to thank God for.We were having breakfast when I notice Amelia’s sad face.
Kaela’s face reddened until we reach the Escarrer mansion. The kids keep on convincing Kaela to accept Enrique as her boyfriend so that they can have a cousin soon.They want to have a cousin badly. They even ask why they need to wait for a year or two. We patiently explain it to them until they understand the need of waiting.“Welcome Quen! It's good to see you again! I bet my son misses you so much.” Auntie Adelia welcomed Quen.I saw Kaela’s sulking face. I just shook my head. I can’t imagine how hard it is for Quen to pursue Kaela. She sometimes acts like a child. It's one of the reasons why the kids love her is because they felt like their aunt is the same age as them.
“Your order Ma’am, Sir.” “Thank you.” I politely said to the waiter.“I’m still not used to not having the kids on Sunday,” I told Ulie.We were having our lunch date today. We were done attending the Sunday Service with the whole family when Kaela insisted on bond with the kids today.I don’t want to agree at first but the kids also wanted to bond with Kaela.Flashback“Ellie, can I borrow your twins today? I miss them so much and I want to bond with them.” Kaela said after the Sunday Service.
“What is this girl doing here?!”I frowned. Can’t I be here? Did she own this place? “Hadley can calm down first?” Quen said.“Why is this girl doing here?! Answer me first!” Hadley is acting like a spoiled brat. I just shook my head. “Do you want me to give you two a time to talk Quen?” I asked Quen.Hadley’s eyes widen again. “What did you just call him?!” My jaw dropped. Is Hadley for real? Is she jealous? Does she re
“Mom, are you going to have a date with dad again this week?” Amelia asked excitedly.I smile at her while caressing her cheeks. “Why honey?” “I want to see mom and dad again on the news,” Amelia answered.I furrowed. Is Hadley’s issue not yet settled in their school?“Why?” I asked.Amelia shrugged. “I just want to show it again to my classmate. They look so amazed at how you guys look on the news. They all said that you guys look perfect together. They finally know why I am this beautiful.” U
“Are you in love with Hadley?”Nick did not answer, he just stared at me.“Why can’t you answer me? Is that so hard to answer?” I asked him again.“What do you want to hear from me?” Nick seriously asked.“The truth!”Nick sighed aloud then he looks at me intently. “Yes. I am in love with Hadley Adelson.”The moment Hadley barge in Quen’s office telling she got the information from Nick, I knew something is fishy.I can’t believe what I just heard right now, even though I already expecting it.Nick was a good friend to us. And hearing this feels like I have been betrayed by a trusted friend.“Did you approach Ulie because of Hadley?” I asked him.Nick slowly nodded at me. “Yes. But it was not Hadley who ask me to approach me. It was my plan. You should thank me for doing it. It was yo
“It was Hadley again?! When will she ever stop?!” I hissed.I somehow treated her as a friend because of the time we spend in America. But this is too much! “But why will Nick listen to her?” I suddenly asked. “Because Nick is in love with her,” Ellie answered.I was not shocked at all. I knew from the start that Nick has a thing for Hadley. I knew he approached me for a reason. I just let him be because it will be an advantage to me if ever Nick will succeed in winning Hadley’s heart. I looked at Ellie. She looks like she was waiting for me to react.  
“You don’t look happy,” I told Ellie.I expected her to cry with happiness now that I finally remember our past. But it did not happen, she looks more scared than happy. “Of course I’m happy! But I can’t help to feel scared.” I frowned. “Is it because of my suicide attempt again?” Ellie slowly nodded. I can’t blame her for feeling that way. I feel a bit happy because I can see that she is scared to lose me forever but I am also feeling a bit piss because of my previous suicide attempt, she became scared of me remembering her or my past. But if you will ask me, I w
I thought that life is so unfair. I even hated God for letting all of this happened. I only loved one woman in my life, but why did God allow me to be the reason for her sufferings? I hated God so much that I tried to kill myself. I feel like, my mere existence is the cause of the suffering of many people. The suffering of the people I love. They said when you don’t understand, you just need to trust God. I failed to do this. I failed to trust Him. One thing God has proved to me was, he is still in control. He did not let me die, instead, He gave me what I longed desire, and that is Ellie. I can’t believe that s
“Ellie, my brother committed suicide.” “W-what?!” Kaela didn’t say anything. All I can hear was her nonstop crying. I hang up the phone and went straight to the hospital. I called Luna and asked her to go to the hospital to take care of the kids. When we reached the hospital Luna was already there. “I heard what happen. How is he?” She said upon seeing me. “I don’t know yet. I need to talk to Kaela first. Can you get the kids and take care of them?” I asked. Luna nodded. “Don
I was so down after my daughter pushed me away. I asked my son to stay with her sister tonight. I know that Amelia needed her brother right now. Even though Amelia bullies her twin brother most of the time, Alistair is still her confidant. Also, I wanted to be to go to my parents. I need their comfort. So I drove my car to their mausoleum. It’s really a good thing that I made this mausoleum like a home. Especially in times like this. When I went inside and saw my parent's grave, tears start to fall again. “Mom,” My voice broke. “My daughter hates me. She doesn’t want to listen to my explanati
“What kind of stupid question is that? Of course, I’m not fine. My daughter hates me now. It’s all your fault.”Ellie hates me and I can’t blame her. It was my mistake who took away the lives of the people close to her... Ellie’s only family.Because of me, Ellie became an orphan. She needs to take on difficulties and responsibilities at an early age. I am proud of how strong she became but I am also mad at myself because she could have avoided this kind of loneliness and hardship if it wasn’t for me. I keep on questioning myself why did I do that?! Why did I try to beat the red light?! I should have waited! I was able to wait for her for five years, but why can’t I wait for a minute or two?
“What’s there to explain about? We heard about your plan with her loud and clear! You are so selfish, mom! I hate you!” Amelia shouted then she went out of my office.I glared at Hadley. She covers her mouth. “Oppps, I’m sorry! But don't worry everything will be alright after I execute my plan. Bye!” Then she went out of my office as if she won a lottery. I felt so weak. My daughter hates me more now. But what is she doing here? I was about to go to Luna and ask her why Amelia was in my office when I saw Alistair looking at me. I went to him and hold his hand. “Alistair I will expl
“Hi, Ellie. Amelia called me and she wants me to take her to the mansion.” Karma explained when I was the one who opened the door for her.I just nodded and I open the door widely for her to come in. I showed her to the twins’ room. I saw both of them sitting on their respective bed. But Amelia has a bag with her, looking determined to leave me. I controlled my tears from falling. I know I messed up big time. I guess they are better to stay in Escarrer mansion than be with me. I was still mourning for my parents. I was not able to mourn for them before because things happened so quickly that I find it hard to absorb everything.
“Come back home. The kids are waiting for you.”I was stunned for a moment. We often believe that everything happens for a reason. But I can’t seem to figure out why all these things happened. Why did God let me fall for someone responsible for my parents’ death? Why did God let me have children with him? I even let myself believe that Ulie was the one for me. “Are you okay?” I did not notice Luna’s presence. I was so consumed by my emotion. “I would be lying if I told you that I am okay because it’s so
I woke up with a heavy heart. I look at myself in the mirror. My eyes were swollen from crying all night. I still can’t believe that this is all happening. I can’t believe the person I entrusted my heart to broke it again for the second time. I regret meeting him. My phone rang. It's the phone we gave to the twins. “Hello?” “Mommy! Where are you? Why are you not staying in the house? Are you with dad?” Amelia asked. My eyes started to well up again. “I... I was at your grandparents’ mausoleum. I dream of the
“I was the one who killed your parents. I was the one who causes the accident.”“What are you saying?” I was so worried when Ulie suddenly passed out after he was shouting for pain. I immediately call the ambulance. Flashback The first person that came out of my mind was Quen. I called him and told him about what happened. “How is he?” Queen said as soon as he arrived at the hospital. “The doctor said that he is stable now. But they will run some tests to find out why he was suddenly in pain.” I said.
