"What's going on here?" I left the kitchen when Tiyang didn't answer, because I heard a noise outside. And I was shaken by what I saw, I gasped for breath when I saw what they were doing now. Hace turned his gaze to me, he came closer and kissed my cheek while caressing my stomach. "Don't those people intend to go home?" Hace frowned at my question, he also looked at his friends now playing piko saya. Carlos carried my Aunt daughter on his shoulder while playing. He was very happy, when I looked at him he was also smiling. "I don't know about them, I already told them to go without me." I looked at him. "Why didn't you come then?" "Love, that's an obvious question. You're here, and wherever you are I'll be there." He sigh. "Is that a song?" I asked with a snort, he shook his head and hugged me. “You know you can't push me away. Because no matter what you do to push me, I will come back and I will still come back to you. You're my home, my love and my everything." I tearfully
NERISSA After getting settled, we traveled back to Manila. We rode only one car, together with Hace's friends. And now it's a miracle that they are quiet, their faces are serious and it's like they have their own world. Draco is driving and Carlos is in the front, Hace and I are in the middle. Adrian and Aki were behind, busy with his computer. Since we left the house, Aki has been facing his laptop. I sighed and leaned my head on Hace's shoulder. I felt his kiss there and his hug tightened on my shoulder. "Something wrong?" He ask, I just shook my head and closed my eyes. "We will come back, I promise to stay with you with your family. For now, let's face your father. Everything will be okay.” He promised. "Hmm." My only answer was, I still remembered how hard it was to say goodbye to my siblings. But when he said why I'm leaving. Their faces became clear and even happy. We talked to tiyang about dad's return. She must have told those children so that they would agree to let m
"Dad, just a moment, calm down, I'm not leaving." I stood up, holding my stomach, suddenly there was a pain. I took a deep breath, shaking my head as dad stood up. " You don't know Alejandro Nerissa, that man is a demon. I know what he is doing to you here. So whether you like it or not, you will come with me and we will leave here. I'm back, so you have no debt to pay. " Suddenly, father seemed to lose himself and pulled out his hair. "You're all right? " He looked at me, blinked and quickly approached me. Grabbing my arm, I gasp when he pressed too hard my hand. " We are going home, Hillary is already here so you have no use for him . We need to get ahead of her before she gets you out of here herself." I tried to grab my arm, but he held it tightly. "That won't happen, Hace loves me and I love him too. I won't leave, you're hurting me ." I was in tears, he just shook his head and pulled me away. He walked so fast that I could hardly follow. I held my stomach as it hurt again.
I felt bad for Hace and Hillary when I caught up with them in the kitchen. I had Hace come down first to cook the breakfast I wanted. Fried rice and dry fish , plus red eggs. Because they are not with Lara and they are at the grocery store now. We are the only ones left here at home. And because Hillary wants to live here temporarily because she misses Hace. Hace told me why Hillary and father came back just now. It is said that Hillray was in a coma and it was only last month that she finally recovered, from waking up from a few years of sleep. Dad was the one who saved her , someone took them and treated them both. Dad woke up first but he said he didn't remember anything so he didn't come back to us right away. I understand what happened to them, because of my father's fault. But what I see now in front of me, I just want to pull Hillary out of the house. Hace also told her about the relationship Hace and I have. And she said she understood, and she was like a gentle sheep who beg
"No, no. You can't do this to me, I know you love me. You're just like this because of that girl! You can't do this to me, you can't. I've been with you, we're together for years." I'm afraid to hug Hace, it's like Hillary is not herself. " Hillary, first of all I didn't ask you to marry me. You proposed to me and I said yes, because I thought you're the one I'm looking for. But I'm wrong, and I'm so sorry this happened to us. I love you but just a friend, my colleague.” Hillary just shook her head at Hace's words, feeling bad that she approached me. Hace immediately blocked his body. I bowed to his chest, I don't know what happened. I just saw the bulk of Hillary walking out the door. I broke away from the hug, Hace grabbed my face and made me face him. "She is crying." I said, Hace was in tears, he just shook his head. "Thank you for coming back by the way." I hugged him again. " I'm jealous." He kissed my head, I pulled his neck. "Love, what are you going to do?" He nervou
HACE I drove the car quickly because of the call I received from home. Marj found Nerissa unconscious in our room. I left the meeting and just left because of my panic. I went down quickly when I got to the house, after entering I went upstairs and went straight to our room. The worried faces of Manang Lara and Marj appeared. I ignored them and went straight to where Nerissa was lying. I sat on the edge of the bed and held her hand. I faced the doctor panting. "What happened is she okay, and our baby is the baby okay?" "Yes Mr. Mondeñego, thankfully your wife is okay. And I'm glad that your baby is okay too. Just a little complication of her passing out because of shock. Everything is okay, my advice is to let her rest and not to think too much that will stress her." The doctor explain as he's putting all his things in his bag. "She was okay when I left this morning." I turned my attention to manang Lara." What happened?" I saw Marj nod, Marj walked to the side of the bed on the
"Fuck!" We all got wet when the rain suddenly poured down. We covered our heads with our arms so that somehow we wouldn't get wet. The case is that the rain got stronger, so we didn't do anything. We turned to Carlos as he quickly took shelter on the rock and took off his clothes. We looked at him in wonder. "What?" He asked, as he noticed us looking at him. “I need to save these clothes, my babe just bought this for me. I can't let this get wet, I have to wear it again tomorrow." he looked for a cover in his pink shirt , I shook my head and looked at my companions. We were thinking the same thing, Draco answered him. "Bud, you do know what's written in your shirt." “Yeah, yeah. Don't mind me, I can be whatever she likes if that takes her not leaving me again." I sighed and patted Draco's shoulder and asked him to answer again. 'MA' BITCH' That's what's written in his shirt. "We need to move now, they're distracted." We all looked at Aki, nodded and got ready. We parted ways, w
She showed the arm where the bomb was connected, towards her body. She smiled as if it didn't matter. "I'm waiting H, you know I don't like waiting." She said as she waved her hand with the gun. "H." I looked at my friends, they were all shaking their heads. They know that whatever I choose, it will be a dead end for me. But not for them, they can still go out in time. But my Nerissa, she's waiting for me. And our baby, I want to see her or him. We're supposed to see the doctor to know the gender. But I guess, I won't have a time for that. I won't be seeing them again. I gasped for air and faced her. "Let them go!" She smiled, liking what I said. She signaled the staff, I looked at them. They untied Nerissa's family. Aki, Carlos and Caden also helped. I saw Draco leave his seat and come to me. Caden motioned for the crew to leave. I shook my hand and shook Hillary's voice, she was happy but there were tears in her eyes. I can't fight her , she has the bomb. And no matter how fast
