Alejandro Pov... We all arrived home devastated. Who would have thought that a simple dinner for our family would be like a movie? Embarrassing to the people who witnessed the riot. We all head home to my parent's house and Mr. Paloma goes straight to Donya Lou's house, luckily she wasn't there to witness the dramatic scene. "Love!" I called Anita since she's quiet since we got home. "Yes, love!" She answered but still didn't look at me. "Love!" I called her again. She turned to me. "Alejandro, something isn't right! I don't think Diane has a good childhood. The man that saved him is his father who owns Soledad Hospital where you were hospitalized." She suddenly blurted in deep thought. "What? But, how? I never meet the owner of Soledad Hospital, but they held a Christmas party at Vida Hotel last year. I heard he is notorious in the business. He owns a lot of hospitals and pharmacies. How is he Diane's father?" I ask confused. "She's an illegitimate child, Alejandro, her mother
Rex Pov...I couldn't contain the immense happiness of looking at my child's sonogram, I just couldn't understand what was written on it. I didn’t hear the sound of his heartbeat and watched his movements because of Alejandro’s call, but there is still another day. Now, I understand Alejandro's emotion when he founds out about his daughter. The famous playboy turns into a one-man woman driving him insane. The excitement is far from receiving a plaque of recognition in front of everyone cheering for your success. I'm already excited about cuddling him and even plans. The journey I wanted to have with him is vividly written in my mind. I love you my little one! I mumbled happily kissing the sonogram. Sadly still, Uncle James and Aunt Lorrie didn't know that I owned the baby. I want to tell them, but Sam insists not the right time yet. I don't want to hide the truth but Alejandro's is the main event at the moment and I don't want to steal his. Just like Samantha wants We will finish
Samantha Pov... Libby called that she had returned to the Philippines for a vacation, so even though I look like a sulking Buddha, I will still go to the mall to meet her. I missed that ugly witch."You witch! You are pregnant!" She shouted, running towards me whilst wearing high heels. Models wear high heels, that's why running and walking isn't complicated no matter how high the heel we are going to wear."Libyaaa you witch! I miss you!." I shouted back. "So, you're really damn pregnant and you just told me now that you already had a big belly?" She complained as we were partners in crime in New York and Australia. She is the reason why I bought a property in Australia. She grew up in Australia and her mother is an Australian."I'm sorry, if you can just help me get out now, I'll pay for your milk tea for the whole year!" Because that's her favorite of any season and any drama in life. She is not a coffee lover, but a milk tea addict."What? Are you serious!" She blurted, shocked.
Sam Pov..."So it's true you're really pregnant?" I was startled dropping the utensils I was holding before turning my head to see who he was. My eyes widened seeing Luigi, my stalker I had been running away from for a long time. But why does he seem sad? "L-Luigi!" I uttered shock. "How are you? Can I sit down?" I'm not used to his kindness. I know him as a playboy and a flirt. At least that's what registered in my head. "Am fine! Yeah! Sit down. You, what are you doing here?" I immediately asked as he sat. I'm confused about why he is so nice when I remember clearly that he threatened me last time. "I know what's running in your head!" He said as he called a waiter to order his food since I had a lot of food in front of me, but I could not bring myself to eat. "You think, I'm a pervert like you spread out in Australia." There was a tingly pain in his voice. "Isn't it?" I accidentally muttered it was already too late before I could take it back. "Do you know that my father is t
ANITA POV... I was excited and nervous as our special day approached. I'm nervous that something might happen again. I'm elated we move to the next level of our life. We didn't believe in the beliefs, not seeing each other before the marriage, but we still obeyed their wishes. The kids and I lived here at the mansion while Alejandro stayed in his condo. I heard Sam and Rex will be coming tomorrow to attend the wedding though anytime Samantha will give birth. I don't know what is their relationship. I just learned Samantha got pregnant because of a one-night stand. But still confused, why would Rex take good care of her, maybe I'll ask Alejandro after the wedding!Alejandro and I both didn’t know what the wedding and reception venue would look like. We just chose outdoors in the late afternoon. Cream and gold are the themes since I love gold. I chose all white for my flower and red for the center tables, corsage, and wrist flower for secondary sponsors while holding 3 roses with lon
Alejandro Pov...The time has come for the bride to march. We were all waiting for Anita to enter, but I was surprised to see their famous fashionista grandmother walking the aisles. The saying is true and as seen on TV, she's damn stunning and sexy. How could she maintain those perfect postures at her age and her face, too lovely? The church goes into chaos to see her as most of the guests are famous personalities same in the business industry. The commotion stopped when the wedding march played.I feel suffocated anticipating Anita to enter. I clenched my fist nervous as sweat beads started to form on my forehead and my hand sweated, shaking."Hey! Relax, breath man. She won't run away!" Van whispered in my ear. I exhaled as I didn't know I was holding my breath. Fuck! No one told me how terrifying it was to get married.Shit! I'm too nervous slowly clasping my hands. I didn't notice that my palm turned white anxiously gripping. Van jerked my arm with his elbow. If this is Rex I'm
Samantha Pov...I almost spilled my secret to my parents. Of all the days you really chose to scare your mother was your uncle's wedding! I mumbled terrified. I thought I was going to give birth, but I haven't, you're just acting up.The doctor said I was very tired and stressed out. How could I not be stressed? Thinking of all the scenarios makes me stressed most of the time. Though Rex is patient enough to accommodate all of my tricks how long will he stay put? My parents would not be surprised by his pure care from the beginning he and my older brother became friends and they considered him as their own. When my older brother is not there, he takes care of me. Now that I'm pregnant he took care of me in everything that only a couple would do. It feels heaven to be taken care of by Atty. Rexxie Samuel Jimenez. This was my longtime dream and now I experienced the care he used to care for Coleen. I just hope I'm Coleen so I can have his heart.Am I already too greedy to ask for his
Alejandro Pov...After the wedding, we organized a simple family gathering at the Vida Hotel and Asuncion Farm to celebrate Anita's birthday. We were supposed to celebrate her birthday on our wedding day, but everyone forgot. I even greet her after the wedding while we are resting. Samantha and Rex didn't attend Anita's lavish birthday celebration. Samantha needs to rest before giving birth, she didn't pop on the day of our wedding. She gave birth to twins whom Rex wasn't aware of, grounding Samantha with two nannies. I really don't know what she's up to, but I hope it's for good."Finally, you both decide to stop your hide-and-seek game! It's damn stressful!" Van expressed when he reached the gazebo putting the food in front of me."Yeah! I thought I wouldn't really wake up again, but Anita forced me to wake up!" I laughed jokingly."That's not a good joke Alejandro, if you only knew how crazy my cousin is. She left, but she's always crying over your picture in Manila!" Van's disclos
Samantha Pov... After 5 Years... Of all the things that happen in our family, we become stronger. We face everything with open hands as we know we are in this together. Just as our beautiful, unforgettable promise on our wedding day. In sickness and health. For poorer and richer, we did! Our families didn't leave us as well. We help each other and achieve each of our dreams. I thought the family I dreamed of would never happen. Fixing what is broken isn't easy, especially if trust is already ruined. You can trust again, but it wasn't the same. Doubts are always there knocking you off. Triggering your mind to suspect! I live my life believing he loves me to keep doubts away, though he shows his undying love every day so do I. We always look like a newlywed couple or a teenager who is just in love. Giggling when we see our crush. That's what we both feel. It's been 5 years but our love isn't fading. As the days, months, and years passed by, our love blossomed unexpectedly. My brothe
After the wedding, we both decided to travel locally for a month for our honeymoon since she was already almost four months pregnant with our twins again. For our first destination, I chose to go to Baguio, then Bulacan before Subic for our honeymoon. After almost two weeks, we plan to go to Boracay and back to Palawan. Then I suggested the last week staying in the Manila Marriott Hotel. Samantha supported us all the way and gave some suggestions. I did not allow her to return to Australia and New York and asked her best friend to take care of her business there while she was away. I will let her travel when she has already given birth and is capable of moving comfortably. At the moment, I'm still in bliss that I want to be with them and see them anytime, especially my lovely wife, who amazes me all the time.We are here today at the Baguio Country Club and this is our second day. It's nice to go for a walk, from around five pm onwards, feeling the chilly breeze and fresh smell of
Rex Pov...Now that the long-awaited day came, I felt nervous and my chest was going to explode, fidgeting. Samantha and I are getting married today, but I'm nervous and worried. Three days before our wedding, she lived with her parents, saying that we had to be apart for three days before the said wedding day.In the three days that I was not with her, I could not sleep well or eat. I miss her cooking and how caring she was. You just have to wait a few hours, Rex, you will see her. I mumbled to myself. My other two friends did nothing but laugh at me as well as my brother!"Buddy, just relax! You will see her in a while before you don't want to see her!" He mocked, jokingly."That was before!" I uttered, embarrassed."Then what about now, if that was only before?" He asked back."Because now, I love her and don't want to lose her again." I responded shamelessly, seriously looking into his eyes.He was my best friend but Samantha was her only sister. He has the right to ask! He smirk
Rex Pov...Our upcoming wedding is taking a toll on us but in a nice way. I can't be happier reaching this stage with her after the roller coaster incidents.Maybe if Samantha hadn't been persistent, we wouldn't have had a happy ending but only pain until our twins grew up. I always say no, not because of my pride, but because I didn't pay attention. But with everything that has passed in our lives, we have learned to appreciate each other before everything it's too late. I'm always scared she might get sick or hurt herself.Our wedding is next month and I can't wait to call her Mrs. Jimenez.Samantha is three months pregnant and we only spent one month preparing for our wedding. She was already five months pregnant on the very day of our wedding, so the balloon design of her wedding gown looked even better. Both of our parents didn't want us to get married after she gave birth. They want us to get married before her belly grows. During our one-month preparation, we didn't have any
Rex Pov...I frown when memories of Coleen are back in my head. I really can't get her out of my life. She was once a part of my life, hiding from Samantha. I met her at a meeting with my client who is a regular customer at the Diner's Pub he owns. After a few meetings, I courted her. My courtship and our date lasted for three months. Since we share the same hobby, it is not difficult to get along. I thought I really, fell in love with her but I just now realized that I didn't love her like I loved Samantha, who I hid from my heart for a long time because of Coleen. My love and desire awakened the moment I saw her with someone else. I'm very angry because of jealousy, which I don't want to accept. I smiled again at my stupidity. I already have her, but I keep on pushing her away. I also loved Coleen but I love Samantha more. Now, I can get justice for her but a little sorry for her, since my heart has always been in love with my best friend's younger sister. I chuckled, sticking my
Rex Pov...My hunch was right. We were asleep and mom woke us up. They brought a lot of fruits and vegetables so that Samantha would have something nutritious to eat. I sighed, staring at the fruit they brought. I am not starving my wife! She asked permission to take the twins - oh no, actually, she is informing me that they took the twins and they will return when Samantha gives birth."That's not possible, mom. I've only been with them for a month, why take them away?" I protested."Rex your priority is Sam. It's not easy to get pregnant with mischievous children. When she gives birth, make twins again." She responded."Mom!" I blurted out in disbelief."What? I want grandchildren." She snorted again. Samantha was already red as a tomato."You just said it's hard to get pregnant and then you want to get her pregnant again." I protested again."Why, don't you want to have a lot of children? Isn't that what you always wanted to have a big family?" Mom sneered. Samantha's eyes widened,
After our successful get-together dinner, I left them enjoying themselves as I needed to go home. I already miss Samantha. I was in the middle of the road when Alejandro called."Hello Alejandro?" I gleamed."Where are you? Dad was supposed to bring the kids back but couldn't contact Samantha." He said. I felt nervous, clutching my chest. I'm allergic to these kinds of calls! My heart wants to jump out freakingly, nervous whilst my brain becomes stagnant and can't think quickly."What?" I exclaimed, nervous."I'm here at your house right now. See you later. I told dad to keep the kids for a while." He responded."Okay. I'm on my way, bro." I answered nervously. I was so happy just now, but now my heart feels like it's going to explode with fear and nervousness when she leaves me again. I shook that thing out of my mind, driving faster.After arriving at the condo, I took a long step to get inside. I searched the entire condo but there was no Samantha. The food I cooked was also untouc
Rex Pov...I went to work with a broad smile and energetic. Since my parents took the children, I left Samantha still sleeping. Before I left the condo I cooked her favorite food and will fetch her later to go home and see our kids. Those little munchkins I miss them so much! I hope Uncle James brings the twins back and will not ask for an extension. I miss them running towards me when I come home. Those are the precious moments I can't exchange with anything. I want to cherish these little moments while they can still be cuddled. I'm growing old scared I wouldn't be there when they needed me the most. Now, that I have Samantha beside me, I can't contain my happiness engulfing me. I wish I had been true to myself before. Loving Coleen was just my scapegoat to run away from her since she was too young for me! I am still over the moon at the sweet feeling of being loved and to love her again. I loved Coleen before but it wasn't this happy and the love I had for Samantha was not reall
Rex Pov...Uncle James took Xander and Alexa home. Mommy argued that they should be the first to take my children since they had just arrived. While they were arguing on the rooftop of the restaurant, I told Samantha to go home. Fuck! I miss her so much. I didn't know how much I missed her until that kiss I gave her. I was very anxious to pamper her again after three months when something happened in my condo. Her action at home two weeks ago in the study room was out of the box, but I enjoyed it. She really hides something obscene about herself. But it's okay as long as she does that thing only for me.I'm excited to reach home as I drive so fast. I wanted to go home but suddenly I changed my mind. I turned the car around and took her to my condo. No one is there and no one will bother us. I will mark what is mine, this time with love. I smiled and looked at her who was taking a nap. Our Hills View Paradise Restaurant is in Tagaytay, so the trip back to Manila is a bit heavy. Afte
