While walking next to Axis, people who noticed me immediately flock in front of me.
"Guys! It's Miss Yasha! She's here!"
"Come on, let's take a picture with her!"
They all scream just by the sight of me. I also heard group of women whisper then they all came near me. Some were already taking me photos.
"Excuse me. Miss Yasha, can I have a picture with you?" a woman asked, plastering a smile on her cute and chubby face.
"Oh sure," I agreed and they quickly stood next to me.
With her friends, they are pointing each other who will take us pictures. Because I thought of something silly, I asked for their phone and took it from them then I looked at Axis.
"Ax, would you please?" I made a puppy eyes on him. Sure he knows what I mean. I saw his jaw tighten. I just secretly laughed when he took the cellphone from me.
Upon capturing, people are already flocking in front of me, waiting for their chance to have a picture with me
"You misinterpreted it, Miss. I am not ruining your relationship, okay?" I explained. Just the thought of me ruining someone's relationship made me shiver. Like, hello? The hell I care about their relationship?"Shut up! It will not change the fact that you two fooled me!" she yelled at me, then she suddenly approached me. Since I am not aware of her action, this girl pulled my hair. What the hell?"Jenny, stop it!" that blonde guy tried to stop this woman, or let's say his girlfriend but this woman slapped me again.I pursed my lips, trying to restrain myself. Gosh, this skinny woman already slapped me twice. Is she abusing my kindness here?"JENNY!" this Jayvee guy stopped his girlfriend.Some of his male friends also stop her and Jayvee quickly pulled me away from Jenny. That's only when I noticed that we already got the attention of many people here and they are already watching us."I'm sorry, Miss Yasha," the blonde guy apologized to me, and
I was inside Axis' car, sitting on the shotgun seat while he's at the driver's seat, next to me. Until now, I still can't understand the strange feeling I had in me.Okay, he just told everyone that I am his fiancee. And so what? Maybe he did that just for publicity, right? Argh! Why this one is so big deal to me now?"Hey," using his fingers, Axis slightly flicked me on the forehead."What?" eyes with shooting daggers, I glared him then I shook my head to erase those thoughts running at the back of my mind. "Wait, where am I?" It was only then that I noticed the strange appearance of the things around me."You're inside my unit woman," Axis replied.My eyes grew large. "What the hell? Where am I?" I couldn’t help but raise my tone while repeating that question. Why am I here? What am I doing here in his unit?"Your mouth woman," he warned me."Why am I here?" I asked again, my voice is still in high tone. I never entered
"You're not joking, aren't you?" I couldn't believe what he just said but he just looked at me straight.He shook his head as his way of telling me that he is not joking at all. "The day when that news about us being engaged has spread, like what I have told you, your name is already attached to my name Yasha. Look, I am not doing this just for publicity, nor to protect our images but also to protect you," he elucidated at me."Look what have happened at the mall yesterday. Would you just let anyone call you names and let other people think that you really are? If I didn't come up on that scene to tell everyone that you are my fiancee, just like what the girl did, for sure people will also believe that you are a relationship wrecker. You get my point, Yasha Reese? I am doing this because I want to protect you," he added and a sincerity drew in his eyes as I stared him.He has a point somehow. If he did not appear, people will definitely think that I was a relations
I blew up a heavy breath as if giving up. Good thing he let go of me after that. We quietly stood side by side inside the elevator. When that stopped he came out while I am walking after him. Reaching his office, he went inside and so am I. He then walked to his table while I sat on the sofa, leaning my back lazily on it.I menacingly gave him a bad shot look when he sat there, obviously he is now ready to work with the piles of paperwork he need to do. And what will I do here? Idly watching him while working? It's way better if he dropped me at my restaurant, at least there, I have some things to do unlike here.My phone suddenly rings after the long silence. It is Aishi."What?" I asked on the other line and I saw Axis turned to me.[Where are you?]"In the other world. I was kidnapped by a fool," I replied with extreme exasperation.[Whatever Yasha! I just called to inform you that we can handle the resto so there is no need for you to come her
After having a phone call with Aishi, I continued browsing my phone the whole time I was inside Axis' office because that's the only thing I could do to kill my time. I felt so bored. If he really had dropped me off at the restaurant, I would have used my time helping my people instead of doing nothing here.Bored, I lay down on the sofa and put my feet on the backrest while still browsing through my phone."Would you please sit erect?" Axis disobeyed me."What do you think of me? A child? Sit erect my ass," I spoke with sarcasm."You are really something, woman," he told me, sounded pissed. He even glared at me with that eyebrows of him which have met again. Tss. He's like a gay.I didn't listen to whatever he says. I keep on browsing my phone until group of men entered Axis' office. Just like him, they are also wearing business suits."Hey, man!""Yow! How's life, dude?""Doing company stuff again?"That's what these guys greet
When we got off the elevator, almost all the employees here in his company looked at us and as usual they murmured again. Reaching to where his car parked, Axis motioned me to sit in front. He then sat next to me and drove until we arrived at my restaurant. And guess what? He even walked first inside than me."Oh Sir, I told you not to return Ma'am Reese back," Honeyleth greeted us with her jokes and I heard the customers laughing."Honeyleth," warned as it may seem, but Honeyleth kept on saying senseless things."Come on Ma'am Reese, I know you are enjoying Sir Axis' company. You see, you look sweet to each other," she added and I ended up rolling my eyes.Not minding them laughing at me, I went straight to my table and put my bag there. "Where's Aishi?" I asked them because I haven't seen her since I came here."Ma'am Aishi left awhile ago but she told us that she's coming back sooner," Jenna answered me. I just nod but where did that woma
After having our snacks at the food court, he insisted on taking me to my unit and I did not refuse."So, you still live here until now?" he asked, seems amused. He even roamed his eyes in the whole place as we entered inside. Maybe he is thinking why after so many years, I was still living here."Yeah. I've been living here since college and I do not really want to leave this place," I answered. This had became my place ever since and I do not want to live in the mansion either. It is too boring there."Make yourself at home Darrel. I will make you cookies," I informed him and went straight to the kitchen but he I noticed him following me."I will help you," he volunteered so I agreed.Having all the things needed and after preparing the ingredients, I was the one mixing all the ingredients while he's the one putting all the mixed ingredients on the cookie sheets and put it in the oven afterwards. After baking, we waited for it to cool down before head
I woke up quickly the next day. Our flight will be later at 1 this afternoon so I need to pack up my things. I just rinsed my face and then I went down. While walking downstairs, I am still rubbing my eyes. Though I already rinsed my face, my senses aren’t that awakened yet.When I got to the living area, I found out that the blanket I gave to Axis last night was already folded. He's no longer there also. What time did he leave? Did he sleep well? He did not even give me words that he was leaving. After a short realization due to some thoughts that are running at the back of my mind, I slightly hit my head. Why am I thinking that? So what if he did not inform me? Tss.Leaving the blanket to where it was placed, I went straight to the kitchen to get something to drink. Then there, I saw a post-it note glued on the door of my refrigerator. I don't even know where he took that post-it note. But then, I quickly took it and read what was written on it.I made your
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
