I was feeling deaf and numb as my whole world had stopped. My knees were slowly losing their strength and my chest was squeezed so hard making me feel breathless.
My Blake didn't survive because he saved me. He saved me and our child.
With a blank mind, I stepped my heel out of nowhere. I don't know where to go, I just did let my feet decide. My tears were streaming down on my cheeks while walking along the hospital halls. This is such a curse! I am a curse!
"Hey, Aly. Where are you going?" I shoved Celestine's hand on me. I want to see him so badly. He can't die this time. He can't die this young!
"I have to see him, Celestine," I replied without taking a single glance at her until I reached the emergency rooms.
I immediately asked the nurse whose sweat was visible on his forehead and was pacing back and forth, assisting some
Nine months later…Amber was lying in the labor and delivery room wearing the white polkadots hospital dress.
"Aly! Aly! Come here! I have something to show you!" a boy shouted from afar while the girl is tying her shoelace.As soon as she heard the boy's call, she instantly ran without finishing what she was doing. "Coming!" she yelled at his expense.While she's running close to the boy having a toothy grin, the girl suddenly stepped on the untied shoelace causing her to fall on the ground. The boy's eyes widened in shock and immediately ran beside her. He checked the girl for any injuries but instead of crying over, they both laughed not minding the little wound on the girl's knee.A new girl came out on the picture. She is taller than the first girl but unlike her, she has curly brown hair."What's happening?" she asked with crossed arms.The two-child shifted their gaze at the back still laughing for unknown reasons. 
As soon as we arrived at the school, I immediately scanned the area hoping to see Lily. I've tried to contact her many times but she didn't dare to pick up."Searching for someone?" Jordan asked beside me while wrapping his arms on my shoulders guiding me on our way.I didn't bother to look at him and babble instead. "I'm looking for Lily. I can't feel at ease if I won't see her as soon as possible," then I pushed his arms away from me.He patted my head and whispered, "Over there," while leading my face to her direction. I nodded at him and bid my goodbye before running to Lily's direction.I waved my hand over Lily to catch her attention. When her eyes met mine, she smiled widely."What's going on?" I said with my stoic expression.She intertwined our fingers and rested her head on my shoulders. We started walking along the hallway still waiting with her re
We are here in the cafeteria with Lily and Jordan. I sat beside him while Lily was on the other side. Jordan was teasing and threatening me on telling Marcus that I haven't eaten my breakfast. For sure, Marcus will scold me and report what I did to my parents.Speaking of my parents, I often do see them because they are busy. I barely could remember their voices and their faces but they supported me through Marcus who tooks charge of me. And Jordan, my very own best friend becomes his eyes when he was not around. They are as close as real brothers and I would not wonder if they would talk about my life."Jordan, please don't tell Marcus about this. I just don't have enough time earlier to eat my breakfast because Lily was making fun of me and the bell suddenly rang," I explained but it seemed like he was not convinced.I placed my hands onto his shoulders and motioned it to face me. "Look Jordan, I will owe you a lot if
"Yes, you are very lucky, Ms. Ferrer," a baritone voice suddenly croaked out on my side.I never dreamed of a demon whispering to me this day. This person adds my annoyance!I moved my head to see who was the person disturbing me but before I could see his face, a soft muscle pressed on my lips.What the heck!I was stiffened on our position as his blue eyes met mine. I felt a sudden electric shock on my body which shivers down to my spine. My brain went blank and all I could understand was his lips on mine. It was my first kiss!When I finally digested our situation, I pushed him hard and gave him a slap. The students around oohed for a moment not until I threw them my threatening glare. That was really a big issue! Dammit!"How rude, Ms. Ferrer," he commented while touching his face with a smirk. I didn't care if it was rude for him but that was what he des
"Marcus! I'm going!" I shouted while walking down the stairs.Marcus didn't wake me up this morning and I presumed he is busy doing stuffs that my parents ordered him."Marcus!" I yelled again and this time he showed off carrying his black suitcase.I narrowed my eyes and crossed my arms over my chest still focusing my sight on him who was walking near me. With his blue polo and knee length pants, I bet he will be going out of town."Where are you going?" I confusedly asked.He smiled at me and patted my head. "Business trip," he thriftyly said.I shrugged my shoulders and offered him to have a seat for a while. I want to have at least a minute with him before he will go on his business trip. I could skip my class for this morning to spend my time with him because I know it will take him weeks before coming back.Instead of accepting the seat, he took a glance at hi
After their fistfight, we decided to bring him here to our house since it is the nearest place for us to go. Though he insisted that he is fine and we must attend our class, we still followed what I wanted. My conscience would not be at ease if I can't assure that he is totally fine and treated."Ouch!" Jordan groaned as I put a cold compress on his bruise.I placed the ice bag on the center table before apologising to him. He didn't respond, instead, his lips formed into a thin line.Until now, he still has the urge of killing Blake after he saw the video that I wasn't expecting to spread. I shifted my view on him who was looking directly into my eyes. I can't read his emotion and what exactly he is thinking right now but one thing is for sure, he didn't like what he saw.Despite our current situation, I still feel like the universe is on me knowing Marcus is no
I felt relieved after the long explanation yesterday. Maybe I should ship Lily and Marcus as soon as possible so that she could also defend and cover me to him. My ever-loyal friend is always willing to support all of me.And because we ditch our classes last day, I decided to enter the school one hour before our normal class schedule. In case I missed something,
Nine months later…Amber was lying in the labor and delivery room wearing the white polkadots hospital dress.

"Are you alright?" Blake asked, cupping my face while we were both sitting on the green grass of their garden. The loud bangs were gone anymore and the surroundings came back into normal.I nodded at him with my shaking nerves."Sir, are you alright?" Their guard asked. Blake shifted his view at him."Yes, I am. I am always fine when my baby is around," he started, giving me a toothy grin. I smirked at him. "Kindly report the incident here," he continued, to which their guard immediately agreed.I narrowed my eyes at him. "Did you make any trouble for the past weeks?" I inquired, crossing my arms over my chest.He chuckled then gave me a quick smack. "I stayed in the condominium and isolated myself here after to push me away. So, the accusation is denied," he replied.I shrugged my shoulders at him and took my
***"When you're sad, look at my eyes and you'll be happy.""Your eyes are really cute. I am happy already. I think you should also put a shining stud on your ear so that it would match your sparkling eyes.""You want me to?"***"Shit! Blake!" I cussed to myself while holding my head in pain. The constant flashing of episodes makes my head hurt a lot more and more."Ma'am, are you alright? Are we going to the hospital, instead?" The taxi driver asked, meeting my eyes in the rearview mirror. I shook my head at him as a response."No, Kuya. Let's go straight to the address I have given to you." He nodded at me.I hope he was there at his condominium. I want to see him. I want to be with him. He was supposedly the one I should marry and not his best friend. I am such a fool!
After the honest feedback from my sister, I ended up wearing straight-leg jeans and a striped tee-shirt with a pair of flat black sandals then Celestine braided my hair so that I would look blooming and fresh.I said to myself that it's fine if I gained weight but now, I'm taking it back. I'm not happy to see myself like this. I looked so stressed!"Maybe I should start my daily routine exercise, what do you think?" I asked Celestine in the middle of our trip. She was leaning her head on the seat while listening to music from her earphone."Just enter your classes for the whole week and you'll be back into your natural figure," she replied. I raised a brow on her in confusion."What do you mean? Does it even help me?" I asked.She pulled out her earphones and looked at me with a blank face. "I mean… You, as a president, have a lo
Though it's hard for me to wake up this morning, I still did my best to force and convince myself to stay awake. I promised them last night that I will attend my classes today and I'm fulfilling it now.I was in the middle of eating my breakfast in bed when I felt a sudden spinning. I closed my eyes, trying to feel better. Then, I reached for my hot chocolate and took a few sips on it but after a moment, my stomach flips, I am feeling puking once again.I hurriedly jumped off on my bed and ran in the bathroom, positioning myself on the sink, puking out. It's really gross. Food poisoning seriously hit me so bad. Dizzy, I turned on the faucet and gargled water to release the sour taste then washed my face afterwards. Am I really going to school? Could I do it today in this condition? I might puke in the middle of our class. That's a total disgust. I questioned myself and weighed the situation.If
So earlier, we ended up staying all together in my room except for Dad who was at a business meeting. I convinced them to do their own thing for me to rest but they chose to stay in my room for the whole day; staring and watching over me. It was too much for a care. I appreciated that so much. Sometimes, I laughed out of nowhere while looking at them blabbering incessantly.Funny to think that the three of them planned to sue the canteen where I brought the spoiled food. I know they were serious about that so I pleaded them not to and just inform the seller instead to make their food better next time. It would be a misfortune for them if they'd continue filing a case though I'm still alive here."Where's my daughter?" My eyes instantly widened when I heard Dad's loud voice echoing around the house. The arrival of his tone is not worried but mad.I was here in the dining room silently eatin
Almost three weeks have passed and the set up became harder for me. As I can feel that the party is fast approaching and we soon will get married. Lately this week, I am getting sick while thinking about everything. My body got heavy and I felt dizzy. It's really a strange kind of sickness. If I'm not mistaken, it must be anxiety."Amber, wake up. It's already seven, you still have your classes, Honey." I pulled back my comforter to cover my entire body. It was Mom, bugging me this early."Mom, give me an extra minute, please. I'm still feeling drowsy," I mumbled with a groan. I reached for my pillow in my side then covered it to my ears.My eyelids were as heavy as metals preventing me from opening my sense. Even my own body feels heavy. Everything is heavy. I can't get up. It sucks! Another few minutes came and I heard a knock on my door again."Amber, aren't y
The moment I stepped in my foot on the white tiled floor. Everything came back to me. It was there when I felt that my eardrums were broken because of the loud music that welcomed us. I instantly ran back outside the house while covering my ears because I can't bear the noise. It was like the waves of sound travelled in my body inviting all my internal organs to jump making me feel a bit headache and dizzy.Blake laughed at me so hard that time. I told him that I won't get in and would go back home if he'd push me to get inside the house. So, we ended up staying our ass off in the garden together with some basketball players who were drinking alcohol. It was gross when I saw some party goers puking on the side. It caused me to flip my stomach while watching them over. It was gross and hilarious yet memorable.I smiled bitterly then shook my head to get rid of that sudden reminisce. I am training myself to forget him
