Aubrey's POVI woke up when I felt something move in my bed.Obviously, there was no sign of the storm, but when I turned around, PJ was lying on the other side, sound asleep.I immediately sat down, and when I turned to the other side, it was the lion who was sleeping on the sofa and still bent over.I can't remember how Pj slept on the other side of the bed, but I went to sleep first because I took the medicine, and I fell asleep immediately, and I couldn't stop my drowsiness because my head would hurt more.I got up and went into the closet, then washed and brushed my teeth.After I came out of the car, Leion and Pj were fast asleep, so I slowly went out and then went straight to the kitchen to put on my apron.I prepared the pan and I cooked a pancake, bacon, hotdog cocktail, and coffee.I fried rice, and the ones I cooked were on the counter.I was about to put the ones I cooked when I saw them standing and Leon leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.While PJ was smiling
Aubrey's POV"Maam, Here's your black breakfast and chocolate drink order.Enjoy maam, "the waiter politely dropped my order and left.I just stared at the food in front of me.I still don't feel hungry no matter how delicious the food is served in front of me.I always feel that something is missing.And I don't know where to find it."What an Aubrey! You won't be satisfied if you don't eat what you ordered! Isn't that your favorite? " Joanna said, and sat beside me.I look at her eyes and her smile fades when my tears run down to my cheeks."Hey! I told you not to cry when I'm with you! Nakakaguilt! " Joanna said, and took both my hands and smiled at me.Her eyes were also teary and I felt guilty. She was affected by what I am showing now.I also think that the people around me should not be affected.Not porket I'm sad. They should also be sad.That's wrong. I don't want to share the sadness I feel now.This is just a test. And I know I can handle it.But not right now."Joanna, Jus
Aubrey's POV"What are you doing here again, pj?" I asked him, then handed him the handkerchief he offered me."I saw you. I was with Joanna, but suddenly, Carmie came, and I noticed that you feel awkward when Carmie is around. And you look pale lately. It's good that you left earlier, "he said, and held my hand.I didn't speak, and I just let PJ speak.I'm not in the right frame of mind, so I don't know the right thing to do.It's still unclear whether I'll thank him or simply ignore him."Tara, Tagaytay?" He offered. and a broad smile on his lips"No, I can't. That's where I saw Leion and Carmie dating. "I said, then he lost his smile and I felt guilty that I was the one at fault why he suddenly lost his smile."Oh. "Sorry" was his simple answer, and it was obvious that he was just trying to laugh so as not to be awkward.I'm sorry. I shouted at you, "I said, then looked at him, and I was surprised when PJ looked into my eyes and started staring.I looked back and returned to my fee
Joanna's POV"What! Aubrey is missing again! " I shouted at the person I was talking to in front of me now.Tito and PJ are the ones in front of me who have been tense in this room for a while."Weren't you with him before? Oh, no!Why did he disappear? Anyare! " I shouted, and then I gulped some juice, and Tito was staring at the footage that the mall gave us when someone arrested Aubrey."I hold her hand. But when we went out of the mall, She walked away and left me. But she didn't leave me because I saw a man pulling her to get into the van. And it's too late when I run. They've already left. "He explained that Tito didn't say anything.I'm so sorry. It was my fault, "said PJ, then swallowed the beer in the glass."It's fine, Mr. Howard," Tito replied, smiling, then turned his attention back to his laptop."That's not okay, Tito! Aubrey is missing for goddamn sake! " I sighed angrily and was overwhelmed with emptiness, and then gulped down the juice again."I'm sorry," he said, then
Aubrey's POVEarlier, I was taking a walk inside this room and checking around.I was restless and I could feel if there was someone outside the door.I'm scared because I gave mom and dad another problem.It's embarrassing because I can't do anything to make them proud of me.I'm ashamed of myself. It hurts to think that I can't do anything good in my life.Hopefully, one day I will learn to stand on my own two feet and I won't have to bother mom and dad anymore.Maybe they're looking for me now, especially since I haven't contacted them.I heard footsteps approaching the bedroom, so I went back to bed and put on a blanket.I pretended to be asleep to see the face of the one who grabbed me."A-aubrey?" I shuddered and quickly sat up in bed and turned my gaze to enter the room.Her voice was familiar. I can't forget that.The man's voice throbbed and broke my heart."Leion?" I asked in surprise, and then I sat up and the lion sat in front of me and gently caressed my cheek, and sudden
Aubrey's POV"Aubrey, I love you.""S-sorry. But I love someone else. And we will get married. ""Who? To the lion? I can run away from you. If you don't want to marry the lion, I know. I have a place in your heart. "You're wrong. I really want to marry Leon. And then I only love Leon. And I don't want to embarrass my family name. I'm sorry, Dwight. I can only give you as much as I can really give you in friendship. "Aubrey, please."Dwight. Don't let yourself be locked up in something that has no fulfillment. "But I love you, Aubrey. I will do everything just to make you love me. I will try to give you a good life and a good future. Just please stay with me. I am the one you choose. "But DWIGHT, I don't want to oblige you and make it difficult just because of me.But Aubrey, I'm ready for all the trials because I love you and I won't miss the trials. Just don't leave me. ""Dwight" caressed my cheek before crushing me with a kiss."But your eyes don't lie," he said, then kissed m
Aubrey's POV"Aubrey!" They shouted at the same time and then I sat down on the road and scratched my head."A-aubrey!" Then someone picked me up and put me in the car."Where are you taking aubrey!" Leion shouted then grabbed dwight's shoulder tightly."I'm a doctor. So I know what I'm going to do let me go" then dwight removed the grip on his shoulder then quickly got into the driver's seat and squeezed.I turned my gaze to the side mirror and saw leion there.There were tears in his eyes and he knelt on the road and his forehead was bruised and he closed his eyes tightly."I love you so much" I wet his mouth before he disappeared from my sight and we turned around."Aubrey? Did you know who I am?" Dwight asked me then quickly turned around."You're dwight" i said before i finally fell asleep.*****"Mr. Montezur, I know I'm no longer your son's doctor but I'm still concerned about Aubrey""Thank you for caring Dr. Lim""Malasakit or you are one of aubrey's freakin 'stalker you know
Dwight's POV"You have no plans to stop dreaming of being you again, Aubrey. What is that dude? What a year. Since your love story in Kapa, time has passed.Why don't you just make a new one and you'll be consciously swetehin kapa, "said the lazy beside me as I hugged the bottle of vodka that was already half full.This man is Joanna's brother.I only met him last week when he blocked my car to run away from the women who were chasing him, and that's where his trouble in my life started.It's only Aubrey's age or he's a year older."How old is that?" I ask as I stare at the glass of beer.I'm only 24. Aren't you 28? " He asked me, and I just nodded.He was two years older than Aubrey."How close were Aubrey and Leion when they were kids?" I asked and then he drank some alcohol."Leion." It's just a denial that he doesn't like Aubrey. But the truth is that he wanted to like it then. Maybe he was just choking because we were just kids and the two were brought closer so that they could st
Leion was every girl's dream. He was like a knight in shining armor. No one expects us to be together. We all thought we would never reach the end, at the end.But we reached the latter. We got married and had a child far away, and his life was there, but again for no apparent reason.It's been a year since our wedding. That was the best, until he collapsed at the venue. We were dancing so sweetly at that time when he suddenly knelt down and his chest touched his chest. We ran him to the nearest hospital and when he died that day, we were told that we needed to fly to the US for his heart transplant.I thought we could enjoy that day, but no, Leion was so happy and it was so happy that he collapsed and everything seemed to slow down. I thought he was going to lose me now.I never thought we would get up early in the US. My twins are with their grandparents. I want to focus on Leion and the twins to understand our situation here. It is very difficult for me.Every day I wake up to appr
Seeing my only walking down the aisle with her drop dead gorgeous face and her attitude that every man will fall easily is the best scene of my life."Calm down, son, this wedding will be great for you." I looked at my dad, smiling at me, and he grabbed my shoulder."This wedding is the best both of you chose to get married, when we didn't force you or fix marriage." I smiled and wiped away my tears as I walked over to Aubrey. She looked pure in her gown."This is the best day of my life, and the girl that I wish would be mine forever." I put my hand in front of Aubrey in front of me and her dad was smiling at me too."This is your last wedding. Next time your sister Aubrey." She smiled sweetly and kissed her dad."Yes, Papa, I swear we'll make it work," she said, and then you looked up and smiled at me."Hello, Mr. Guavez," she said sweetly, the most beautiful sounds I've ever heard in my life; she's my life."Hi Mrs. Guavez," I slowly raised her hand and supported her, lifting and s
It's been a week since Leion was in the hospital and his security room is here. I almost lived here just to get close to Ashley."Sleep first," Leion said as I held my hand and smiled at me as I fixed his blanket.Later, Leion, I don't want to leave you here." He brushed my hair as he shook his eyes at me."You are the best thing I have ever had in my entire life." I listened to what Leion said while he was beside me. I didn't want to leave him because I was afraid he might suddenly leave me and I would be alone. I was scared"Leion, please promise that you will not leave me. You will not leave or lose me again. I am very afraid of losing my face. I will not be able to." She shook her head and wiped the tears from her eyes.I will not leave you. You are my good and happy, so why would I leave you? I took a deep breath and he rubbed my face."Deion said that we will get married next week. They are up to date because of my treatment and I am willing to do it so that I can be with you un
A warm hand touches my neck while I feel sleepy after the pool earlier. I love it. I want to do it again."I'm so in love with you." I was surprised to hear Leion's voice watching me a while ago while he was just stunned and smiling at me."Are you tired too much?" I shook my head and put his face on my neck. I hugged him and closed my eyes."You smell nice, Aubrey, so sweet," when my cheeks were hot as he said and something hit my side of something hard."Leion?" I parted from her and she laughed, holding my hand, approaching her."Morning sex is good, or shower sex if you want.""Pervert!" I screamed and stabbed her with a pillow as she laughed."I'm not my love. I know you want this too, right?" I shook my head, and he grabbed my hand and fell to his chest."Really? That's why you moaned so loudly last night and said, 'ugh baby more don't stop,' he made my voice tone, and what he said embarrassed me even more."What the heck, let's go downstairs. The twins are looking for us. ""Le
I was nervous sitting in the passenger seat while the kids were behind and watching a movie while me and Leion were on vacation in Batanes. We were going to our wedding venue. I was really nervous. My parents were wickedThey say they can take the preparation for 3 weeks with no delays. So are Leion's relatives and parents, who are also busy helping them prepare for Leion's wedding."Calm down lady, we're just going to get some clothes there and let's look at the venue you want since you like Batanes, right?" I nodded slowly and held her hand."We can make it simple, Leion.""Ayoko, you're not a simple lady and you deserve a fuckin' big wedding. You know that you deserve the best, the finest. " She kissed my hand and stopped the car at the big hotel and turned to the twins."Behave you later, ha? And after that, we will enjoy the beach and more. ""Yes we will, Papa, and I will be the princess." Leion smiled and then knocked on the twins' door."Mom, I saw that lady again." I looked u
I stared out the window of my room while sitting on my twin's bed with a sigh of relief. We were going to visit Leion in the hospital because he was still outside the hospital and his older brother said he was fine.He looks happy without me, but why is he coming back?"I thought you were going to visit with twins." I was surprised when Leion looked at the door and his eyes were sad."Later, you know you need to bond with your son and wife.""She's not my wife. What the hell are you talking about?" She was still grinning at me, and I passed her and read the room because they might wake up Liana and Grei."Talk to me, Aubrey. Why are you mad? I should be angry at the first place. ""I don't understand, Leion. Why did you say that? Are you supposed to be angry? " She sat on the sofa and put her hand on her forehead and pressed her tightly."I know that Nick is also part of your life and I know he's hard to forget because he fills all my shortcomings when I am gone.""I don't know what y
Sometimes I am scared to be lonely. I don't want to feel that way again. Because I swear that if I already found someone, I won't let him go again.It is annoying to think that no matter what we do to get away, we return to each other. Sometimes we lose our way and we can find someone who will help us to show the way back to our destination.And it's Nick, the one I met helping me to Leion.Because Leion is always my final destination, the feeling that every day the sacrifice is for him, and I go back to whatever he does, he's my way back home. But why is that? Don't I have the right to be happy with the person I love dearly? I know that it's been a long time since my last question, but why does he have to recover where people are happy?I whispered as the cold wind hit my face and the waves of the sea were making my mind. I wanted to be with him until it was over. I want to marry Leion and, most of all, to be with him until our last breath."I saw you here, Aubrey." I turned for a mo
I was walking around the street where my house is located, and the twins left with their dad as I headed back to Manila to talk to Mon and Dad because they had something to tell me, besides Joanna's complaint with me in the Our business is going to die for a lack of designers because of Joanna's fight"You know what, I can finish those messes that you made. Come home first for you. Maybe later when I come back, the AU contour building will be gone, "I joked as I talked to Joanna on the phone."Fuck, I can't take this stress anymore if I only know that my parents are rich in my other family. Fuck this business."Okay fine, I have something to send to our relatives there while I don't know if she can handle that stress, I can't leave what I'm looking forward to right now and the twins were enjoying their free time with their dad, and of course I can't stop them-""You are also happy to be with Leion after a long year when you thought he died in a car accident." I sat down and removed my
"Mama, I want to have another bowl of cereal.""Me too."I said as they lifted the bowl of their meal and took me to the island counter of the kitchen. They followed me. I couldn't hide my smile while Deion and his wife couldn't take their eyes off me."What?" I asked and I gave the bowl. Then Grei put in the milk."You can smile as if your face is broken." The wife laughed as she reached out to Lianna, the bowl with cereal, and went with her older brother."Why? Is it bad to be happy? " I asked, and they laughed while pointing at my back."Look who's here," she says, wrapping her strong arm around my waist and kissing me on the neck."Good morning, my queen," he said before he kissed the neck and his clothes were wet as he had fish with his fish."Where have you been?" I asked, then he laughed at me and lowered the fish."The kids say they like fish, so I get on the clean river." I roll my eyes and punch him."Idiot, there's a fish in the market. You can buy it there if you don't car
