Serah's POV.It's a few days now since my son Gael was discharged from the hospital. I am glad that we are here getting better from the trauma he experienced that day.He has been talking less and he has become so dull. My bright boy was so much distressed now. But I know he will get better with time.“Are you hungry my baby.” I ask him.He was just laying on the sofa staring at the ceiling. He did not speak a word since morning, and I was getting worried.“Daddy. I want my daddy.” He says.Usually, he wanted Raphael to be here. But I know it will be impossible since I ended things with him. I have not talked to him for weeks now. I must admit it is tough living without him. And I miss him so much. “Your daddy is not here my dear. So calm down my baby boy.” I say while coming close to him.“Mom. I want my daddy. I want my daddy….” He starts shouting. He is not the same Gael I know. My baby boy completely changed after the accident. I felt so bad inside that he was suffering so much a
Brian's POV.I feel so relaxed after Rebecca leaves my house for good. At long last, the marriage was over for good. I am sure we will never see each other ever again. I mean, that is what I want, to never see her again.I lay on my bed, feeling alone. I reflect on my past mistakes. I left a good woman, Serah just for Rebecca. I left a diamond for a rock and that was the biggest mistake I ever did. If I could only turn back time, I will marry Serah right away after confessing to me that she is pregnant. I wonder if she kept the baby, or she aborted it just like I instructed her. I just hope that she kept it. If she kept it, then it means that my baby is all grown up now. I wonder if it is a girl or a boy. I can't help but be curious. “Where should I look for her? I need to apologize. I just hope and pray that she accepts me back. I hope she kept the baby. I want to see my baby so badly. I just hope she will allow me to see my baby.” I say to myself.* * * * * * * * *I woke up feeli
Elena's POV.“Thank you for the coffee, my love. It was so delicious. I loved it.” I say while placing the cup on the table.“Welcome.” He says.I must admit that last night I had a good time. I was so happy and free when he was around me. I just wish that he falls in love with me. I will be so happy. I will not stop until I make him mine.I was so embarrassed earlier when he refused me. I mean, no man has ever refused my body. I know I am irresistible, but it is unclear to me why he refused me. I was so hurt by his behavior. I hope he will not do that next time when I offer him my body.“So, at what time are you leaving the house. I want to drop you so I can go somewhere.” He says, breaking the silence between us.“I don't know. You want me to leave so soon. I wanted to spend the rest of the day here with you.” I say.“Elena, please. It's not healthy for you to say here. I just don't intend to disrespect you, but it's better if you go home. Just get ready, I will take you.” He says.
Serah's POV.“So how about the job you applied for a few weeks back. Have you heard anything from them.” My sister Mia asks me while we were preparing for dinner.“No sister. But I will know if I am selected in a day or two. I really want to get the job. I wish to move out of this house so that you can have your space.” I find myself saying.The truth is, I feel so guilty. My sister was feeding me and also my son. And also this house was too small to fit in all of us. I think she needs her space with her husband. I don't want to burden her with my problems anymore. She deserves to be happy with her husband and daughter.“Serah, how can you say that? Have I ever complained?” She asks while holding my hand. I could see sadness in her beautiful eyes. “Sister, it's not what I meant. I just want you to have your space with your husband. That is why I want to get out of the house. I want you to focus on your family and not my problems.” I say.“Serah. I want you to be here until all is cal
After a month.Raphael's POV.“The wedding preparations are going on so well. And your wedding is in about one week.” My father says to me.“Ok dad. Whatever you say.” I say.There was nothing I could do anyway. I left all the responsibilities to him. I did not take part in any of it because he had already organized everything.“Are you still not happy about the wedding. Just cheer up because it is going to happen. There is nothing you can do to stop it my dear. So accept that you will be Elena's husband. Whether you like it or not.” He says.“Ok dad. I will be heading home now. Just call me when you need something.” I say as I take my car keys ready to leave his house. He had called me to explain how the wedding preparations were going. But I was already fed up with this. I just wanted this to end so I could go back to my old life."And I can notice you are losing weight. So you better start eating well. Or your wedding suit will make you look bad and ugly.” He says.“Why do you care
Serah's POV. I have been working for over a month now and all I can say is that my job was doing fine. I was already used to it, and it gave me so much peace. I am happy with my life now. Time moved so quickly when I was at work and I thought less about Raphael. The day was over, and I was now heading home. My son Gael had already joined school. He was now doing good, and he was continuing well with his studies. I know by now he has already reached home. Brandon was the one who picked up from school every single day. Thanks to him, I did not have a hard time picking him from school. My phone vibrates and take it out of my purse to check who was calling. I remember putting it on vibration mode. Me — hello madam. Madam — hello, are you still coming to check on the house? Me — yes madam. I am out of work already. Can you wait for me for about five minutes, please. I will be there. Madam — ok, I will wait. She says, and I hung up the phone. I have already searched for a
Brian's POV.At last, the boss allows me permission to go on my leave. I was planning to use this leisure time to search for Serah. I just hope that I will find her.Just like a normal day, I get up and I prepare myself. I take my bag, to pack a few clothes, and I leave the house. I decide that I will spy on Serah from her old house. I hope that she still lives there. It has been five long years, and I know anything could change in that time. I hope that I will find her there. I take a cab and within a few hours, I arrive at Serah's house. I hide myself somewhere where no one will be able to see me. Hours passes and no one was coming out of the house. I start giving up when I see a man and a girl walking to the house. “Who is that?” I ask myself. The girl was a teenager so she can't be my child. If Serah had my child, then it means my baby is about six years now. “What if they no longer live here? Then it means I will have a really hard time finding my Serah.” I say.This can't
Serah's POV.I can't believe I just saw Brian, and he is asking about our baby? What baby? The one he refused five years ago? Or what baby? I just can't understand what he wants back in my life right now. I mean, he came back after five years. I just can't forgive him like that. And he will never know about Gael. He is not his child and that is final. Gael knows that his father is Raphael and that will never change.I immediately take a cab to my home. I was now living in my house. I had already moved out of my sister's house earlier today. I went to the supermarket to get things for the house and that is when I bumped into Brian. I just hope he wasn't looking for me and that is just a coincidence meeting today.Gael was in the room sleeping. I go to check up on him and I find that he was still sleeping. I decide to let him be. My heart could not stop racing. After five years, I saw Brian again. All the pain comes back as if it were yesterday. I remember how he rejected me for anot
Serah's POV.I said yes to Raphael's proposal. Finally, I will be a bride. It was so wonderful. It was always my dream to get married to him and it was finally happening. Everything was finally going to its place.We start the marriage preparations instantly. There was no time to waste. We set the wedding date a month from now. I just could not believe it. We had so much to do in a little time.* * * * * * * *After a month.The day is here, my wedding day. The day I have been waiting for was finally here. My sister Mia was here by my side. She watched the makeup artists doing my makeup. I could see a bright smile on her face each time we made eye contact. I could say she was so happy for me. After all, she is my sister.After I am ready, the makeup artists excuses herself so that I can talk to Mia. She had requested some time so that we could have a little chat before the wedding.“My little sister, you look like a princess in that dress. You look so beautiful.” Mia says.“Thank you
Raphael's POV.After some weeks.“Welcome home my dear.” My mother says.I have spent these few weeks in the hospital after the blow I received from Brian.“Thank you mother.” I say to her.Serah was right beside me. She has been by my side all through, and I was so thankful to her.Brian was arrested and sentenced to twenty years imprisonment for attempted murder and kidnapping. I felt somehow sorry for him. He was hurting for his son a son he denied six years ago. It's so bad that he will now not be able to see his son grow up.“Where is Gael?” I ask Serah.“He is inside his room. He said he will make you something nice to welcome you inside the house.” She says.“So, I guess he is already used to this house.” I say.“Yes my love. I also love it here. The house is so big and nice. And also your parents love the two of us so much. I could never ask for more.” She says and I kiss her cute lips.“Yeah, my daddy is here.” I hear Gael shouting at me. In his hand, he was holding a paper w
Serah's POV.We reach Brian's door and I press the doorbell. The lights were still on so it means he was inside.“Who is it. I am coming.” He says out loud.He takes like two minutes before he finally opens the door.“What are you doing here Serah.” Brian says immediately he opens the door.“I am here for my son. I know you have him so don't pretend that you don't know what brought me here.” I say in anger.“What are you talking about. I don't have Gael. He was with you. Don't you remember that you never allowed me to see him? So I gave up, and I decided to continue with my life.” He says.“I don't believe you, so please let me in. I know Gael is inside there.” I say in anger.“I am sorry, but I have to ask you to leave my compound. Both you and your lover, please leave from here.” He says.“Brian, please. We know Gael is in there. We don't want to use force, so please let Serah pass. Likewise, we must search this house before we leave.” I hear Raphael saying. All this time he had rem
Serah's POV.I can't believe I got out so late from work today. I could not even get the chance to ask Brandon to pick up Gael from school.It was almost 6 when I get out of work and I immediately rush to Gael's school. I know he must be so tired right now. He got out from school about three hours ago. I take a cab and I rush to his school. When I get there, there was no one in the school. The compound did not even have a single person walking. Gael was also nowhere to be seen, and I panic. I start knocking on the school gate and the gate man comes running.“Madam, what are you doing here so late?" He asks.“I am looking for my son. I could not pick him up on time.” I say.“But there is no child in the school by now. I have locked all the classrooms already, and can assure you that there is no one.” He says.“Where is my son then. I am so worried right now.” I say.“Who is your son, madam.” The security guard asks“He is Gael. The one who was attacked a few months ago.” I say to ma
Brian's POV.It has been a month full of agony for me. This is because I could not see my son. I felt so lonely. I miss him so much, and I must soon see him. I have been busy with work that I was unable to get much time to go and see him. And this frustrated me so much. I wonder when I will make bond with my son. He must know me before he grows up. I must spend time with him while he is still a child because I don't want to miss the childhood memories of him.* * * * * * * *Today seems to be my lucky day because I finally get the time I have been wanting so badly. I was not going to work today because I was given a day off.I am so happy, and I decide to drop at Serah's town so that I can check on Gael. I know by now he was at school. Thanks to my sources, I get to know which school he studies in. So I will wait for him until he gets out of school. I will be the first person to pick him up today. And I will think of what I will do with him. I think I will run away with him. If Sera
Serah's POV.Brian's presence makes me so angry and shaken. I know he will keep his promise of taking Gael away from me. I don't know what I will do if that happens. I will be so heartbroken.“That will not happen, my love. We will protect Gael. Brian will never succeed in taking Gael from us.” Raphael says.His presence always makes me so confident. “Please don't ever leave me, my love. I will die for sure.” I say to Raphael.“My love. Please stop saying that. I am not going anywhere. Please dry your tears. There is a party going on inside. Let's pretend that this never happened.” Raphael says as he wipes away my tears. He was truly heaven sent.* * * * * * * * * *After a month.“My love, the breakfast is getting cold. What, are you not coming out of the room?"I say while placing the plates on the table. In this one month, my family has been the happiest. We spent most of the time in the house just having fun. I now feel so complete and happy. My son Gael has completely recovere
Brian's POV.I am so mad at Serah when I arrive in the hospital only to know that they were already discharged. “Doctor, is there any information as to where Serah lives?” I desperately ask the doctor.“I am sorry, but we don't give out personal information to people.” The doctor says.“But doctor, I am Gael's dad, and we are not in good terms with her mother, so I am sure if I call her, she won't tell me where she lives. That is why I am asking you to help me. I want to see my son. Please doctor.” I say to him.He thinks for like two minutes before giving me the address. I thank him and I rush outside.This is a house that Serah lives in. I now know why I could not find her when I went to look for her back then. It was only by luck that we met in the supermarket.I take my car and I start driving towards the address I was given. After I reach, I pack my car and I start heading inside.* * * * * * * *It looks like, there was a party going on inside. I reach the door and it was wide
Raphael's POV.“Place that here. Yes, there. It looks good.” I smile as I stare at Gael's photo. I had printed it earlier this morning. It was so big, just like him.“How is the decoration sir, do you love it?” The decorator asks.“It's perfect. I love it. Thank you for being here. Here is your payment. You may leave now.” I say to her, and she signals her team to leave.Today is when Gael was coming back home, so I had to make everything look perfect and beautiful. It has been two weeks now since he woke up from his coma and the doctors said he was doing better, and they discharged him.“I am sure Gael will love this. I want him to be happy. He deserves this.” I say.I then take my car keys and head outside. I take my car and I start driving to the hospital to pick up my family. I feel so happy and excited.I had informed my parents that Gael had a welcoming party today. But since my father was still not so well, they said that they will not make it. They just sent Gael's present and
Serah's POV Soft hands wake me up. I was so tired. Staying in the hospital was too tiring. I slowly open my eyes and I see Raphael staring at me. I slowly get up from the couch and I sit.“My love, you are back already?” I ask him.“Yes, my love. I came back some few minutes ago. You were sound asleep so I did not want to disturb you.” He says.“So, how was your trip. Did everything go well?” “Yes my love. My dad is doing so much better and he now accepts you. He asked met to tell you that once Gael is alright, then you can go see him. He has invited you over to our house. Both you and Gael.” Raphael says.“My love, why does he accept me so suddenly?” I ask. Something felt fishy to me. “He says, he feels guilty of what he did to me back then. He has also handed the company to me. So, I will be taking over the company.” He says.“That is a good thing, my love. Maybe it's true that your dad regrets his actions. I am happy that you have resolved the differences between you and your da
