STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG THE NEW BOSS
It has been minutes, but our eyes are still diving deep into each other with incertitude. I am still trying to convince myself that I am hallucinating. That is what I am thinking, which can never be. That my eyes are playing tricks on me. After what seems to be an eternity of pure stare, I take a long blink, hoping to peel my eyes and find this nightmare dream all gone. But this cologne This feeling.This cannot be. God, please let it be that I am delirious.“IRMA!”Faint but profound, with an ice-coated tremor Such is the signature demeanor of his voice. It echoes with a very familiar sense that summons my eyes to open as I sample the awful nightmare before me. The aura is choking. Hell has broken loose. Everything in me trembles, and I scorn the fact that he can both sense and feel my trembling.RAYSON DREW MAZUR!I cannot believe my eyes.My worst nightmare is staring right into my eyes, and god knows how much I detest how much his disgusting presence has unlocked the lock to where
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN
“Shoot me!” Julie mutters an exclamation.If she is thunderstruck by the news, then you can imagine how I look right now. My whole body is still quivering with fear and vexation, and my head is spinning brutally. I cannot believe the nightmare that unfolded back there in that hotel. I am still battling with mental rejection. What a blasted day this is! What a nightmare! What a small world we live in! Why did the walls of this damn earth close up on me like this? Why God?I hate this day more than the day I learned of that jerk’s betrayal.“You know, I am still thinking that you are probably confusing things, Irma! How can that jerk be your new boss? It is not possible!” Julie argues.How I wish that was true. How I wish I had even just a slight incertitude about what I saw with my raw eyes and heard with my very own ears. But I don’t blame her. I would argue even more than she if I were the one hearing this narration from someone else. If I were not a witness to that nightmare, I woul
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG RISKY DECISION
Sometimes, it is not always about what we are against. It is not always about cowering in the shadows of ‘this is bigger than me’ or ‘ I cannot handle this’. It is not always about what you will lose. It is all about getting to the point of taking the mantle and wearing the armor and being ready to confront your fears and everything that is a threat to your peace and happiness. It is all about what we are fighting for and how much we are willing to do for what we are fighting for. It is all about allowing the willpower to come out of your shell and drive you. The willingness to risk your all to fight for and protect what you hold dearestAnd this damsel has just had it with running and hiding. I want a peaceful life for my daughter. I do not want to raise her in fear and run from one place to another. I ran from the Mazurs for her safety. I refused to fight my stepfamily back then, also for her own safety. But that is enough. This is where I draw the line. This is the turning point wh
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG NEGOTIATIONS
Julie is dumbstruck as he stares at the figure before us. Her whole body is shaking to the point that everyone can see it. But I think I was totally reborn a few minutes ago. I am not quivering the way I did hours ago when my eyes met this pair. I am not shaking, nor am I astounded. I guess you can never have the same surprise twice, right?I have made peace with this nightmare, although I cannot lie and say that I am not anxious about what he is doing here. Julie was right, huh? They really are bent on messing with me. Thank goodness my daughter is in school.“What the hell are you doing here?” I speak because Julie seems to have swallowed her voice a long time ago. She has not recovered from her shock, and I do not think she will recover any time soon.“Sorry for budging in. I came to have just a civil talk with you.” Ray’s voice echoes.Civil talk, huh? Like the one I had with him that last time in his room? Like the one I had with his mother that night? Civil his ass.“You have no
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG CONDITIONS 1
“Excuse me?” I squeal, banking all my notoriety on him to hearken to his dumbfounding ridiculousness again. Julie is still gawking at him with dismay, her mouth still hanging open.“I want you back to work!” He elucidates, and I discharge out a breath that I did not know I was holding, while Julie’s face drops and she closes her mouth.At least, it was that. He should have gone straight to the point and not given a half-nonsensical string of words. But if he was aiming to anger me, he succeeded because I was arranging a series of profanities to howl at him.“Why? You and your family are a bunch of cunning beings. What kind of games are you playing with me again? What do you stand to gain from me working for you? What other evil plans are you all cooking this time around?” I ask, and he heaves a deep sigh, as if he had muttered a white lie. As if I am being a drama queen. As if I am accusing the saints.I commend the school where he went for his master's in acting, because looking at h
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG CONDITIONS 2
“I did not see it back then in the beginning, but I realized just how wrong I was about you that day. Now answer my question because, like you said earlier, you are not here to rekindle the bittersweet past. Why do you need me to work for you?” I ask.“I stand to gain nothing other than my conscience being at peace. I was the reason you lost your job at the mansion. I do not want to be the reason they lose this one too. I will not be able to bear it.” He explains or lies because, to me, it sounds too good to be true.Since when did he have a conscience? Or is he just growing some now after seeing me again? Even Julie had to smirk at that. I am sure even the devil is swayed by this guy’s acting.But like I said, finding work in this country is as hard as hunting a white elephant. I have bills to pay. I just enrolled my child in school, and I still want her to have the kind of life she is now accustomed to. A conformable life.“You offering me a job now will not help your rotten conscie
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG QUESTIONABLE DECISION
“Are you thinking straight, Irma? What the heck was that out there, huh? Forget about speaking to that son of a bitch, but accepting to work for him? Are you joking?” Julie squeals as we stroll back inside the house.I knew she would not reverse my decision back there. I could see it in her eyes. How she was scorching my cheek with her stern gaze. How she remained awfully mute in the last part of the discussion. I knew she would bombard me with questions the minute that jerk left.“I am not joking, Julie. Finding work is not easy, and you know it. And again, I do not want to compromise my daughter’s life for anything. Until I can find something else better, I will work for that jerk!” I state.“Your baby daddy, Irma!” Shit! I was about to drop on the couch, but that trikes me up as we lock eyes. “Have you forgotten that and all that you have been through because of that man and his family?” She asks.Is she serious? Of all the people in the world, she is the one asking me that questio
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG THE OBEDIENT BOSS
Hello, weekend?I put the papers down and start thinking of what to do with my daughter tomorrow. Yes, it is Friday evening. The weekend has gone by so fast, right? I know, and the good part is, I am doing exemplary awe-inspiring in my new post.The employees have been nothing but nice and friendly to me, making my work so easy. I have not howled at anyone for their incompetence these four days that I have been their kinda boss because everyone knows where to be and do at the exact time. The work is smoother, seemingly more than before. I do not know what the ‘new boss’ said to them that day he reported because no one is slowing in their words. Knowing him, I presume he oozed all his iciness on them, making his orders crystal clear. I haven't asked anyone what he told them. I don’t want to seem so nosy, and I also do not want to arouse any questions like that incident before everyone and how I stormed out of the hotel that day looking like a confused lost zombie.Bitter sigh!I really

STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG HER FATE
“Umh, my dear?” His father calls, and I turn to her, leaving Rey’s eyes scorching my skin. “I think it is time. And forgive me once again, but hold nothing against your friend. She is a good soul. I just needed to get to the root of all this, and I knew she was the only person who had the answers that I sought, aside from you, of course. She means well.”I knew it was. “So, this happens to be the evidence that you have been telling us, Irma? What is this all about? Where did that come from? Why do you have an old check for this huge amount from our company?” Ana asks.Well, I had not anticipated this happening any sooner, but I guess my father-in-law and my friends planned this well. I can’t lie anymore.I turn to Rey after looking at these two women, who look like they are about to pee in their pants. “I am…”“She asked me for the money. She blackmailed me!” Kathering snaps, confusing everyone.Even I am confused by her guts! I blackmailed her. Whith what? Or for what? She is so sham
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG SECRET IS OUT
The three of us once again trade quizzical glances. There is more.“What?” We all trace our heavily pregnant gazes to Katherine as she whimpers, “This joke is the worst of the pains, so what more is there, Mazur?” She asks.A joke? She is still refusing to believe that he is divorcing her, even with the divorcing headline in bold and staring right through her eyes. Not even his serious tone is enough to convince her. Poor woman! I wonder how she does not collapse after the next blow, and I am also eagerly waiting to know what it is.“I have frozen your cards, Katherine. From this moment on, you have nothing. You are barred from coming close to any of my companies because I have erased your name from everything that has my name on it. As for your children, I will leave it to them to decide. I want you to sign these papers and get out of my house.”Mr. Mazur’s words hang in the air like a heavy cloud. Silence has been the only sound for a long time. Fear and quiestions linger in the roo
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG ONE BATTLE WON
“You can’t do that!” Tarah screams, sprining to her feet. “You know that you need us. You need the support of my family for this business. You can’t terminate this agreement. You can’t…”“Your parents and I, young lady,” Mr. Mazur cuts the hysterical parrot off, “have already talked. We agreed that this agreement was a mistake. It is not working. Since this mess has also touched their family because you are in the picture, they agreed to end it in peace and set our children free. We will refund all the investments that your company made in our empire once we do our calculations, and that will be the end of it. For now, all you both need is to sign the papers and go your separate ways.”Hello, to the moon and starts. Here I was thinking that I would be the one to have this bitch divorce my man, but it seems like the stars and the moon were working on my case. Blessed be unto the heavens, and to this man as well. God, please restore his health so that he can witness and be a part of the
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT
We all get to Mr. Mazur’s room with fear and curiosity gnawing within the deepest parts of our souls. I know we are all worried. For instance, I have come to love this old man like a father. He adores my child and is excited to welcome the next one that is on the way. He has justified my stay in this house and my love affair with his son with sincere intent. How can I not love him?“Father? We are all here. I thought we had a party next week, which you were preparing for. What is with this sudden meeting?” Ray asks.And I know how much he adores his father. I remember how badly he pleaded with me not to harm his father. Our paths crossed in this second phase, and my hurt was pounding with waves of vengeance and wrath. He was willing to do anything, even to take up his father’s punishment on his behalf. And in the months that I have been in this house again, I know how deeply he cares for him. He and another love him so much. He may be rendered incapable of anything right now, but I se
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG URGENT CALL
Katherine remains mute, but her expressions ooze hurt and pain. It is like this is a bitter pill that she has to swallow.“Next time, don’t you dare go high and mighty on me, Katherine. You don’t want to cross, or else...”“Shut up!” Katherine shuts her up, her voice coming out between gritted teeth. “Don’t say something that you will regret,” she hisses again as they stand before each other like two antagonistic lions.I feel Rey shift beside me, and before I know it, he is standing up, taking me with him as he approaches them. They drop the rage when they sense us. As if we have not been watching the entire show. As if there is anything new with them. I know their secrets. I know they were together in that blackmail attack against me years ago. The person I pity is Rey, because I still have not found the courage to do what she did.I know that he deserves to know. I know that he has all the rights to know what his mother is capable of. I know he needs to know what his mother thought
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG NO PARTY
I join the annoying party, hugging my fury at my claws because I am supposed to be having the best of this moment with Rey and not burning my arse here watching some manner of less arses drink their already inbriated arses off. Why did this b*tch even need us here? All they have been doing ever since we sauntered from the kitchen is just drink and pick on Rey and me. And she—I don’t understand why she had to stay this close to Rey. She annoyingly pressed against him on the left side while I was clinging to him on the right. The poor guy is so unconfortable and lost at the meaning of this whole thing, just as I am. And you, if all she wants is to show off, then I don’t need to succumb so low. I know who it is that matters to Rey. I am serious as fuck about where I stand in his life.I unbandage my hand from him and shift aside from him, an action that causes his to reach for my hand and shift closer, pining himself on me and wrapping his arm around my shoulder. With ease and care, he g
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG NOT THREATENED
She cloaks her anger for a minute, putting on her signature bitchy crown. But today, her act is not working decently. Even through her iciness, you can still pick up the pecks of anger, hurt, and shame. Bingo, Irma Rose! You are serving this diet, which is the recommended diet. Thumbs up! Stuff her more!“Do not be too sure. And, by the way, how did it feel to see me kissing my husband, whom you can’t stop swooning over? I saw how you almost collapsed with utter stupor and hurt. Did your heart break into pieces after witnessing us kissing?” She asks, almost emitting a smirk.Sha! This witch is so cheap at deriving plans. Was that the only way she could come up with to rile me? My! My! She should have asked me for some advice to spice up her rubbishy, unsuccessful plan. She couldn’t even pull off something to equal a kiss. Such a pathetic loser!“I admit I was thunderstruck and hurt at first seeing Rey’s lips on your disgustful ones for a second. But then, reality slapped me—that was a
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG CHALLENGE
After a moment, she clears her throat myriad times, scraping the back of her neck as if she has an itchy skin disease. She is still dreaded in ignominy and bewilderment, and her friends are still looking at her with dismay and shock. She could have prepared them instead of trying to showcase something that isn’t real.“I will just get some glasses. Feel at home and make yourself comfortable on the seats.” She is still battling with her conflicting sentiments.Her friends start dragging their confused bodies to the seats where Rey is perched, while she starts towards me. I was about to get out of her way, but she grabs my hand and drags me inside the kite with her.The door slams shut behind us, the fresh scent of our raw sex with Rey minutes ago slams our nostrils, and we stare at each other like two antagonistic lionesses that we in reality are.I roughly jerk my hand away from this bitch!“What in the devil’s name were you doing in here with my husband?” Tarah screeches after I snat
STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG GROSS RECEPTION
“What were you doing in there? Been screaming your name for minutes, hun!” I hear that bitch’s voice as I finish cleaning myself up with the Soviets.Hun? Since when? And what is that annoying cheeselike tone? Trying to play some lovey-dovey games to fool her fucking guests? I reckon she is even clinging to my Rey’s arm or fixing the nothingness on his tee just to show off. Bitch!“Uuuu! Spare us, will you?"Spare us?From what?Silence!There is no voice from that witch, and these parrots of hers are just cheering; only the devil knows what. I detest those shrieking sounds! They are making my ears itch! I fix my hair and walk out feeling so raw and content, and...And dumbstruck!The heartbreaking visual visage of my Rey and Tarah together with their lips pressed so iniquitously against each other impairs my visual sense for a minute.Holly fuck!I slam my back on the closed kitchen door the minute it closes. A tinge of stinking jolts down my spinal tube, almost paralyzing me. My who
