REX POV... From the day I saw Samantha's house on fire, I gradually lost hope that I would see them again. My world collapsed when I saw their burnt bodies. It really hurts like hell losing them this early when I'm just starting to get used to this feeling of fatherhood. The joy that started to build in my heart that I'd be having my own family before turning forty crumbled. I'm overjoyed and even thank him for giving me this beautiful gift in my forty years of existence. I was so happy that there was nothing to spare, but a terrible tragedy would end the happiness that began to form in my heart. Planning to propose to Samantha to build our family, and I will take all the responsibility. I love my children so much. Sam, sister or not it doesn't matter, I cared for her. She is a nice woman and perfect to be my woman, but fate was too cruel to snatch them away from me! With no difficulty, he snatched them away. It hurts so much that I can't open my mouth to speak, I feel like my tea
Alejandro POV... I was totally dumbfounded shocked and unable to move when Rex woke up and couldn't recognize me. I calmed myself and asked his doctor what was exactly happening to him. After checking on him his doctor turned to me. "Sir, the patient is okay, but he has a retrograde amnesia." Said his doctor. "What does retrograde amnesia mean?" I ask. I swallowed my saliva while waiting for his response. "Retrograde amnesia is when the patient forgets his old and new memory." Doctor's explanation. No! He can't! This can't be! He can't forget us. He can forget the bitter things that happened in his life, but not forget us! After eating I approached Rex, who was sound asleep after the nurses injected his medicine. I sighed, staring at him. I don’t know if he is cursed at meeting women. He is always hurt and ruined when it comes to women, though he wasn't a player. Why is he going through them? His doctor said, his memory would return in about twenty - four hours, but depending on
REX POV...When I got discharged from the hospital, I asked my parents to come home with me. Alejdnro is kind enough to send me one of his housemaids. He seemed familiar to me, but I can’t remember where we met. I feel like I met her in my previous life. She was kind to assist us without complaining.Still don't comprehend what Alejandro is saying, but I just accept his offer. After all, he is my buddy. I can't spend another week with the amount of work I have and Aleajdnro's busy watching over me. I just gave in to mommy and daddy now that they are here. They were already busy but traveled here to visit me.I've been sending flowers to the hospital every day. I never thought, waking up from an accident, I would meet a woman who would make my heartbeat flutter. She is beautiful and sweet. Her lavender smell is insane. Maybe she likes lavender scents.First note to myself, her favorite scent...Her smile is captivating and fascinates my lonely heart. I don’t have time to flirt because
Lucy Pov...I almost got a heart attack to see Sir Rex entering the office. We were not advised that he would now return to the office. We were not prepared for his back-to-work appearance! It was more shocking and really weird to look at. His entire package entered with a captivating smile was chilly and bothersome.We used to see him stiff every day, but today he is smiling brightly and jolly like we are not used to. How are we going to reply to that? He had a lot of questions that I couldn't respond to right away as his secretary. It's a good thing Maam Aviana called stopping me to say something that is not supposed to be said yet.I still remember Sir Alejandro's order, never to mention things that happened 10 years ago, since he lost 10 years of his life going back to where he just started. That's why the Rex who came in today is a jolly and witty person and that’s how I actually met him when he started working here. Not a man suffered a tremendous pain, not just once, but more t
Georgia Pov... Never imagined our handsome patient would flirt with me. It's been four months since his courtship, I received flowers and chocolates every day at home or in the hospital. I'm surprised how he found out where I lived. We already ate out twice after I got back from work. I was thrilled to smell the new flower he sent. Not only is he handsome, but he is also very romantic. I read what was written on his card.Baby,See you later! I miss you!Love,RexI kept jumping into the living room of my house elated and excited. Tonight, I plan to say yes to him. I want us to be official. He will be mine tonight! I will prepare for tonight's date.It is already 6 pm, Rex's time to pick me up. I twirl around my body mirror again to check my makeup and my whole appearance. I wear pink Roseberry lipstick and a peach dress with a little slit reaching my thigh. I giggled just like a teenager who is meeting her crush for the first time. I hurried down the stairs when I heard the doorbe
Alejandro POV.... After four years, I feel everything is in the right shape. We are still mourning the loss of Samantha and the twins. Daddy couldn't do anything because Rex couldn't remember the past in his life. This opportunity gave him a new life. I didn’t want Georgia for her, but because she was the one who made her happy, I pretended everything was fine, shutting my mouth. I'm not comfortable and my heart aches every time I see Georgia, but for the sake of Rex, I put my feelings aside.Aviana stayed here in the Philippines to help Rex. There were cases ten years ago that Rex couldn’t handle. I want to bring back his lost memories, but it's better not to. He is now happy to be with Georgia. He even asked for help in proposing to her this coming August. The month when Coleen died and even the day she chose was the day of Coleen’s death. That will mark Coleen’s 10-year anniversary of death. I would have liked Hills View Paradise, but she chose Laura's Taste of Heaven, a fine di
Samantha Pov... Seeing my family again didn't scare me. To see Rex was the scariest I thought of. I feel my life crumbling. I wasn't informed about this. What happened in the four years I was lost? I prepared myself for my return, but I was the one who was not prepared for the things I would discover that would meet me contrary to what I expected to happen. That night almost froze me to death to see him, but an unexpected smile and lovely greetings were thrown by him! What the fuck exactly happened? I expected him to drag me out of the restaurant to criticize me for what I had done, but that did not happen. I was stunned, unable to move or speak.Until now my body was still shaking. I thought he would slap me or curse, but he didn't. There is only one person I know who can answer the questions that have been troubling my mind since I saw him. I need to talk to my older brother, it’s not good for me to go to my parents at the moment. I had to spend a few days before facing them,
Samantha Pov... Everyone's feelings were everywhere. It's a dready atmosphere! Rex, proposal shocks his friends, why today? With a heavy heart and out of the place I brought myself to attend this most awaited proposal. The Rex I uses to know is slowly slipping away. I adjusted myself and took a deep breath before going inside. I avoided people's eyes and immediately looked for my brother's table. "Alejandro." I softly called him, patting his shoulder when I reached their seat. He flinched, glancing at me. Who wouldn't feel tense today? What if his memory suddenly came back?"S-Samantha?" My older brother uttered in shock. I wore a wig to avoid commotion. I leaned on him and whispered, "I don't want to attract attention today, since I am already dead, I'll live for it. I need to get my life back before exposing myself." He couldn’t understand my point but played my game.I slowly checked the place, looking around. My eyes widened, capturing the stage set up. Their photos were han
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
