I quickly rushed Kelly to the hospital when she lost consciousness. She just lacerated her wrist in front of me! She's crazy!
The doctor immediately studied the anatomy of her wrist. In her condition, the doctor told me that wrist laceration is going to depend on two things—the direction of the laceration, and the depth of the cut.
The laceration ability to threaten life is dependent entirely upon whether or not the artery is lacerated and in her case, her wound is not that deep.
Her attempt was categorized as nonlethal and the doctor did the hemorrhage control. Bleeding will stop on its own, but doctor said it's far better for her to have her wounds dressed and that's what they did.
I covered my hand on my face while looking at Kelly whom until now still hadn't woken up after she was treated.
What was she thinking? Just because of her situation, she thought of doing this thing? That she's hopeless and having no reason to live? She thought there's
After that day, I never saw Kelly again. I'm still mad at her. I didn't know that after all the things I have done to her, this is what she's going to do with me."Don't work too much. You're not okay yet." I reminded Yasha. She's been resting for weeks now after she was discharged in the hospital. The doctor said she's okay but I can't let her drawn herself in her work again."I'm okay, Ax. I'll just do a photoshoot today, nothing more." She pleaded."It's still a no, Yasha Reese.""Axis, please? Allow me to work now, please? Baby, please?" She asked with puppy eyes and even clung her hands on my nape. What else can I do? I tsk-ed but she just chuckled."Promise. I'll take care of myself." She told me.I also enveloped her in my arms. She doesn't need to take care of herself because I will be the one doing that. I'll take care of this woman in my whole life. I don't want to see her hurting because it triples the pain I'm feeling if that hap
As soon as Kelly closed the door, my gaze turned on the things she left just earlier. I blazingly looked at the paper, took it and crumpled it hard.Ahh! Fuck!After that conversation with her, she never showed up again and for few days, the deal she offered me really bothered me.That's easy after all, isn't it? I have two choices. I will help her so Yasha will not be hurt or to opted otherwise. I'll just choose one of the two choices she said. It's easy, isn't it? But fucking shit, why does she have to involve others? And why is she really targeting Yasha?I know in life that there is no end to our problems. When you're solving the first one, another problem will come. It's an unending cycle and that what's happening to me right now.I was inside my room, thinking what should I do when Yasha entered my room."Hey, woman. What brought you—""We have a problem, Axis." She quickly cut me off. She took out her phone and she handed it to me aft
I quickly followed Kelly and I didn't know why Yasha had to come out of the elevator coincidentally. Her head was bowed down, seemed to be out of herself. I wanted to run and hug her but something seemed to be holding me back."Nice timing." Kelly crazily uttered beside me. "If you love her then make a way to save her," she paused, "before it's too late Axis.""Fuck you, Kelly Jocson," I furiously muttered to her. She just smirked at me and suddenly she walked near Yasha, causing for her to lift her head up."The great schemer is coming." I wanted to hit Kelly that time. Damn her for calling my woman names."What are you doing here? Why don't you just go somewhere where you can gain fame?" I asked and fuck. Please understand me baby, I'm doing this for you.I know how Kelly plays a game. She's using dirty tactics. She doesn't care if she hurts someone else and she's more willing to hurt others just to get what she wants. All she thinks is herself a
Axis' Point of View—present—I did sacrifice our relationship because I don't want to risk Yasha's life but fuck! Why does this have to happen to her?I pushed her away so I could save her, but I didn't know that pushing her away will make her suffer. Seeing her like this is a fucking torture. Damn!I took her hand. I endure those times not holding her tight like this but now that I have the chance to, she's in this kind of pain.No one else has the right to be hurt like this. No one deserves to be hurt. No one deserves to be in pain like this. Fucking shit."You don't deserve this pain. You don't deserve even a bit of it, but I hurt you Yasha. I hurt you in order to save you. I hurt you thinking that it was the best for you but I was wrong. I was fucking wrong. I'm sorry baby I wasn't there to protect you. I'm sorry I wasn't there save you. I'm really sorry."I caressed her face while still holding her hand tightly. Whoever did this to you
"Sir, are you really sure about the merger agreement with Jocson Group of Companies? If that happens, for sure even the employees will be affected or maybe the others will lose their jobs. Isn't it too sudden?" Angeli dared to ask while fixing and sorting out all the papers in the cabinet."You think it was a wrong decision for me to continue that merger agreement?" I asked back, it's kind of asking some advices, but I saw how confused she was to let go of the folders she was holding after she heard my question."S-sorry, Sir Averion. You're wrong about what I asked. That's not what I meant. S-sorry." She bowed in front of me, still bewildered. She nervously squeezed her hand while bowing her head in front of me."There's nothing to say sorry about Angeli. I was just asking." I cleared. She misunderstood it. She thought I was mocking her question where in fact I'm asking for her thoughts about my decision.I sat on my swivel chair and started to read so
Done with his announcement, Mr. Blake approached me and handed me a folder."That's the bankruptcy documents I got. Merging a company whose facing bankruptcy adds another layer of risk for us to take. That means, we cannot just merge with JGC not knowing its condition. You don't want us to get involved in the problem they are facing, do you, Mr. Averion?" He asked while showing me the paper."T-that's impossible! Our company is not facing b-bankruptcy. That's not true!" Kelly protested and the board members as well as the shareholders exchanged various reactions.I didn't mind them anymore. I just opened the folder and something inside me is raging in fire while reading what's written on the document."Do you know a thing about this matter?" I asked as I landed my eyes on her but she quickly avoided looking at me."I don't know. I d-didn't know." She stuttered."Kelly Jocson," I warned but she stayed silent on her sit, still avoiding my gaze.
Yasha's Point of ViewAfter almost a month of sleeping and doing nothing, by the mercy of God, I was able to wake up. I don't know what was exactly happened to me. I don't know why I have to wake up lying on this bed feeling sickly. I don't know how I got injuries on my body. I don't know who did this to me.There is so much I can't remember the day I opened my eyes. When I woke up, I couldn't move, I could barely speak; and my vision was blurry. And because of that, I had to do some physical therapy to regain my ability to walk. I feel my body so weak that it would take time to finally regain my strength.The doctors tested the activity of my cerebral cortex using electroencephalograph or EEG. The tests consist of subjecting different auditory stimuli, then observing the reaction of my brain. They say this treatment helps preserve brain function which will help me remember.Geez! I don't know what really happened because I woke up knowing nothing at all.
I've been staying here in hospital for almost two months now. There were still tests that they did to me. Sometimes I had hallucinations. It all started with some small headaches until I suddenly lost consciousness and when I woke up, I always ask them where I am.I know and I can read the concern on my family's faces so I also do everything to make my body adapt to all the therapies even surgeries I have to do. I want my body to cooperate for my fast and full recovery."We can't tell her yet. She's still recovering, hon. I don't want her situation to be more complicated again. I can't let my daughter suffer again. "I heard Mom whispers and followed by her sobs."I know, hon. Hush now." Daddy caressed my Mom and I don't know what they were talking about. Are they hiding something from me?I kept pretending asleep until I can feel them approaching my seat and they sat next to me. Mom took my hand and she fixed my hair."Get well first, sweetie. Your Dadd
Axis released one of my hands and stroke my cheek. I just stood quietly and just stared at him. Every word he says seemed to seal in my heart. Every opening of his mouth seemed to remind me how things between us started.My heart is beating so fast and it doesn't want to stop. Maybe because it was Axis who said all those words, and it's Axis—the guy who can only make my heart beats fast like this.Unannounced, he suddenly kneeled in front of me and I don't know how to stop my emotions anymore. Locking my eyes into his, he took out a small box on his pocket and as he opened it, a 10 carat chopard blue diamond ring with micro pave diamonds popped up in front of me. My tears just flowed as I stared straight at him."From this exact place and exact spot, and just like the same day when I first encounter you... Yasha Reese Heuson, I want you to marry me." I couldn't hold back my tears.He's right. This place is where it all started. This place is where
"On your pose." The photographer instructed Yasha and she has to follow what was being instructed to her. She's wearing a beige modified A-line gown, showing a dreamy and whimsical look on the camera.After all the things that happened, she is back to the thing she really wants to do, a place where she fits perfectly, that is the modeling industry and they are now rushing things for her 10th anniversary.Done with the laborious preparation they had, the day came for her agency to launch the magazine cover they had prepared.‘Yasha Reese Heuson graces the cover of the highly anticipated three-cover special of the Big Fashion Issue of Starlight Modeling Agency, celebrating her come back in the modeling industry as they launch their newest 10th anniversary magazine cover.’After all the trials she has gone through, at times when everyone is feasting her name because of the news related to her, despite the events where almost everyone has turned away and judged h
Axis' Point of ViewTime quickly passed by. I'm grateful that Yasha and I surpassed those things that happened between the two of us. For the second time around, issue about us came out again, but unlike before were people bombarded us especially Yasha with hateful comments, the reason of our previous issue is now being discussed.People learned that those things that happened were part of our sacrifices. As much as I want them not to bring back the topic, I can't control their thinking. In every issue, people always have their own point of view. So I can't blame them for whatever they want to say."Lando, how's my schedule today?""Sir, you are free the whole day," he answered.Lando was my new secretary. Regarding what happened with Angeli, I have to find for a new one as her replacement. I'm disappointed with her, but I actually understood her because she, me, and Yasha went through the same thing at Kelly's hands.About Lando, yes
For all the things Kelly Jocson had caused me, I abhor her, but thanks to her unsuccessful plan anyway. If it wasn't because of her stupidity, I should not have known Axis.That stupidity of hers is the reason why I have Axis in my life now, so despite the sufferings and the troubles she brought to us, that's one of the things I can be thankful for all she did.I left Angeli and Honeyleth after talking to them. If they're asking for my forgiveness, I could give it to them, but not at this moment. I understand them. I know all of us will do things even if it's against our will just to protect our loved ones. From the decision they made, I also understand them.I can actually forgive them, but what they did to me was really painful and they deserve to pay for the mistakes they made. I will go to them myself when my heart is ready to forgive them, but not now."Axis, hey! Get off me, will you? I might get burn." I laughed while trying to push him away.&nbs
"No. That's impossible! You can't do this to me, can you?" I couldn't find the right words to ask. This is not true. They are just fooling me."Ma'am Reese, s-sorry." And it was as if cold water had been poured on me when she said that. Sorry? Does that mean it's really true?"W-what? Why? What did I do to you? Tell me, what did I do to you?" My tears were already falling."Ma'am Reese, sorry. S-sorry." She apologized. She tried to hold my hand but I backed away from her."What's my fault with you?! Tell me, what's my fault with you, Honeyleth? Why are you doing this to me?!" I couldn't help but let out the resentment I was feeling.My gaze shifted between the two of them—Angeli and Honeyleth. Of all the people who can do this to me, why them? Why did they do this to me? How could they?"W-why? Tell me... why? I treated you like my family even though I'm not related to you. I've been a good person to the both of you, but why is this? Why did
"Do you know how dangerous that offer is? What if they killed you?You don't know who those men were! What if they did something to you knowing that you went there alone—" I immediately hugged Axis tightly and that caused him to stop talking."I don't mind how dangerous it was. I can say that everything is now okay, Axis. That is what all I want, to make everything all fine. I once sacrificed for your sake and I will not hesitate to do it again for you." I felt Axis hug me in return. I don't know how many minutes had passed since we had just hugged each other."I was afraid because of what you did, but you don't have any idea how proud I was woman." He gently stroke my hair and I squeezed my body to him even harder.All trials and tribulations have endings but that won't end if you don't fight back.I didn't stay long in the hospital after I woke up. To be honest, I'm so sick of it. Hopefully, this is really my last stay here because over the past few months,
Yasha slowly opened her eyes. With the strange yet familiar smell surrounding her, she knew she was inside the hospital again. She got up immediately but someone stopped him."Please, baby. Don't be such a hardheaded." She looked to her left and there she saw Axis next to her."What happened? Why am I here again? And Kelly, where is she? Did she escape again?" She continuously asked."Calm down woman, okay? Don't worry, your condition is okay and about Kelly, she's in the other room. They just need to clean up the graffiti she got. There were policemen guarding her and after her treatment, she will be directed to the precinct." She breathed a sigh of relief. After the sacrifices she had made, she did not know if Kelly would ever escape again.The doctor told her she was okay. She only lost consciousness because that was the effect of Kelly hitting her head. Fortunately, no infection had developed especially since she had just recovered from comatose.Wh
"Since we are complete here, why not hear my short story?" Kelly interfered. Her already trembling hand had become calm. She's holding the gun firmly now and her eyes were filled in wrath."There was these two people wherein both of their accounts were hacked. You know someone planned everything but unfortunately, the person she hired mistakenly hacked this girl's account. But she didn't mind though. She still continued her plan." Kelly started and the way she's holding the gun, it's as if she's stopping herself from the anger rummaging in her system."Then one day, they rushed her father in the hospital. Their company was also put in bankruptcy and the only way to keep it was to get this boy's help." A pair of crystal clear water dropped from her eyes."She's desperate to get what she wants that's why she threatened the boy to kill the woman he loves if he won't agree to her plan. And on the other hand, she also threatened the woman that she will kill the boy she
Third Person Point of ViewYasha pulled over the car in a fast speed. She doesn't care anymore. From that day on she had a hunch who was responsible for all this, but she did not know why it all came to this. Yes, she already had a hunch who's the hacker and it's not a he, but a she.What is her fault? What did she do to make her do this? Yasha still couldn't believe what was happening. She could not imagine nor remember what was the main reason for the hacker to be like this towards her.On the other hand, Axis is there, sitting in a chair, with his eyes blindfolded, his mouth closed, and his hands and feet were both tied.One hand violently removed the covering of his eyes and mouth. Axis then saw that he was surrounded by countless men having a muscular body, but all the more he could not believe the woman who's now walking towards his direction."What the fuck?" Axis can't believe what he was seeing, but the woman just grinned back at him before bow
