I curse loudly at the involuntary contractions while I drown in pain on my bed. It's still ten in the morning and after I had breakfast, I went back to bed because of the pain. Damn this cramp!

It's the curse to some ladies like me who doesn't have their regular cycle of menstruation.

I get my periods at random days and the curse of extreme cramps that comes with it would stay with me for two to three days. At times, it's a torture that I have to take painkillers when I couldn't bear it anymore. Oftentimes it's bearable and I can just sleep it off but for this time, its pain level is 1, 000 to the highest.

After discovering yesterday that my period came, I still proceeded with my tutorials and finished it before the worst pain came.

Today, the menstrual cramps made it worse and the shooting pain from my navel area is making me cry out in pain. I already went through my stocks of medicine but I couldn't find any pain killers. This is the sad part of living alone when no one can loo

    As soon as I said it, I search his face for any emotion."Oh," Emilio's troubled face visibly relaxes and he slumps his back on my couch. "I thought I hurt you." He whispers and chuckles lightly. "Since when?" he glances at me without any accusing traces in his eyes."It’s yesterday."A moment of silence follows and I just stare down at my fingers. I feel anxious of what would his reaction be. Surely we didn't discuss what we should do in times like this during our deal."I'm sorry." Emilio suddenly apologized.I look up at him and he moves closer to me wrapping an arm around my shoulder."I'm sorry." He apologizes again. "I was a bit... rushed and...forceful a while ago. How are you feeling?"I look at him in utter shock. I didn't expect him to apologise like this. I thought he would be disappointed and leave immediately."Well, I had cramps this morning but I feel better now.""Is it that bad? The pain?" he asks curiously, And I laugh at his vacant face. Men really have no

    Bethy Hillstorm* I close my eyes in sheer frustration while trying not to cry. I clutch my belly as the severe contractions simultaneously rip through my uterus. Damn it! I just woke up this morning with severe cramps and I couldn't even get up from my bed. I glance at the small clock on my bedside table and it reads 6:50. So I've been turning and writhing on my bed for at least 30 minutes. I face down and scream furiously on my pillow. I should have gone and bought some pain relievers yesterday when the pain subsided. For now, I can only rely on Emilio to come on time. Emilio stayed with me until ten in the evening and left after stubbornly getting my own keys from me saying he would come by again today. At first, I refused to give it to him in defense that he's over reacting but he insisted and so I had no choice. At that moment, I hear the faint opening of my front door. A flicker of hope lights up in me, that should be Emilio then. I turn on my side facing my bedroom door whil

    Bethy Hillstorm* After my shower, I put on a white sweatshirt and long johns. I always feel comfortable wearing long johns whenever I have my period. Thanks to the pain killers, I feel better. I intended to stay longer in the shower. I admit, I'm still sulking over the phone call I saw yesterday. The one with Mi amore and a heart emoji. I wanted to ask Emilio about it but I don't have the guts. Here I am feeling guilty for having a date with Liam the other day but then Emilio has someone he calls Mi amor? The hell?! I exhale deeply, I'm getting mad again. After drying my hair, I walk out of my room and frowned when I heard Kira's voice. Oh my! Damn, I forgot I have my session with my students today. I immediately stroll over to my living room to find Emilio and Kira sitting across each other and looking at me with shock in their faces. It's like I interrupted their deep conversation. "Oh, Bethy!" Emilio exclaims nervously when he saw me. "Hi, Miss Hillstorm!" Kira grins at me

    I sigh relentlessly and stare at the ceiling as I lay on my bed. The blaring music from my speaker is filling my bedroom with a lonesome vibe. The setting sun outside is sketching streaks of orange colors across the sky as seen from my small window. The world is so beautiful but my mind right now is in a troubling state. So many thoughts are running loose around my mind as I think over what I should do. After so many minutes of hesitation, I sent a text message last night refusing Liam's offer for a dinner. Instead, I had dinner with Emilio and we watched a movie again. Even though my mind was baffled and I was dying to ask him about Mi amor, I controlled myself and kept silent about it. Emilio was so caring last night as he did the past days with my ongoing period. Thank God, my period is on its way to being over so the cramping has stopped along with the occasional aching of my muscle and joints. But my worries doesn't stop there. There's Liam's text again this morning asking me

    Bethy Hillstorm*I slide my finger on my phone's screen as I continue walking."Hi." I greet him happily."Stick to the sidewalk, Bethy ""What?" I frown and look around me. Is he watching me right now? I unconsciously strayed a bit far from the sidewalk. I obediently follow his order and move back to the safe side. "Where are you Emilio?""Far to your right."I turn around a small corner and glance to my right. I spot him standing a few feet from me leaning on a shiny black Ferari Oh, damn.He's got a new car again.I hang up and walk over to where he is. He grins at me and opens his car door.I get in and he seats behind the wheel."I haven't seen Lucas for a while." I comment as soon as he starts driving us off."I gave him week vacation." Emilio replies."Oh, where are we heading, by the way?""To my Villa.""Can I ask what for?"He takes his eyes off the road and glances at me."For dinner of course.""Oh." I couldn't say anything more and minutes later, we arri

    Bethy Hillstorm*"Bethy," a soft voice reaches my ears and a gentle nudge wakes me up. I groan and pull the blanket over my face. I hear Emilio’s light chuckles. He pulls the duvet from my face and bends down to kiss my forehead.My eyes fly open at his gesture."Morning, beautiful." Emilio smiles down at me and he looks freshly showered. He's sitting beside me on the bed and as he stares down at me, I can smell his sweet fresh scent and shampoo.I look around me and recognize his bedroom. I don't even remember how we got here last night.All I can recall is how we ended up having sex at his living room while under the intoxication of wine.I cover my face with my hands in embarrassment. I probably look hideous with my rough messy hair and oily face."Bethy, take a shower and come out. Breakfast will be ready." Emilio says before he gets up from the bed and heads out. "And oh, I have some new clothes for you." He points to the freshly piled clothes at the foot of the bed before he clo

    Bethy Hillstorm*"Bethy, are you okay?" I felt Emilio’s hand on my arm and I fly back to reality.I smile at him and sip on the tea he brought us.Mrs. Mendez is sitting beside me delightfully sipping on her tea as if nothing happened a while back.As soon as she said who Claire is, Emilio came back with our cups of tea and I wasn't able to properly process what Losalie just confessed.Claire was Emilio’s first love.It keeps ringing in my ears but it seems so hard to understand. So Emilio had his first love, so what?But why did Losalie mention betrayal? I clearly heard her say'... Claire’s betrayal.' Did something happen?I look at Emilio and Mrs. Mendez as they converse.They're asking how each other is doing and the bond is evident in them. Emilio got her mother's blue eyes."It was nice coming over here. I should visit more often." Mrs. Mendez declares a few minutes later as she stands up and prepares herself to go.She turns to Emilio. "Little bear, you should visit me and you f

    Bethy Hillstorm*I carefully turn the knob and take a peek inside.His room is dark except for the faint illumination from his bedside lamp. Without hesitation, I knock gently on his door and I hear him groan as he move on his bed.I step closer to look at him and he's lying down on his bed with a frown in his handsome face. He's wearing his white shirt from work and beads of sweat could be seen around his face and neck. Even with the blanket around him, I could sense him shivering."Emilio." I bend down and whisper. He slowly opens his eyes but his shivering doesn't stop."Be-thy?" he weakly states. "What are you doing here?" he tries to sit up and I support him as he leans on his headboard."Did you take any medicine?" I ask him instead. I glance at his bedside table and there's a glass of water and a pack of medicine.Emilio nods and pulls the blanket around him. I touch his forehead with my palm and he's burning. "Wait here." I hastily get up and head to his bathroom. I found a s

I was trying to control my tears the whole car ride. This time I broke down, they started flowing down, I couldn't control my tears anymore. I started hitting his chest."I hate you.""I hate you."He held my hands pulling me close to him he said"Who put this thing in your head that I loveLolita?""Why would anyone have to put this in my head? I know it." I said sobbing."First calm down. How did you know it?""S-She was with you in y-your office today.""Today? When?""When I called you in the morning, she picked up the call.""You called me?" He asked in confusion. I nodded."I was not in my office in the morning." He said making me confused now. Jason thought for sometime "Shit!""What?""I forgot my phone in my office and she was there, maybe that time you have called.""But you still love her."I sighed. "Why are you

    Lilian Chaser*I was peacefully doing my work when her thought comes flushing in my mind.I sighed and kept the phone back on the table. I really want to see her in that dress. Waiting till the evening is really making me impatient.This girl is killing me, when after so much I finally started avoiding her why did she had to wear something like that in the hot tub. I wanted to take her so badly right then and there. I don't know if she is doing this purposely or not but if she continues this I am sure I will lose control over myself.Taking her out of my thoughts, I focused on my work again. When I was finally done, I looked at the timing to see it was 6 already, so I decided to return home. When I reached home, I saw Junior studying like an obedient child and trying to understand what his tutor was saying. I smiled looking at him and made my way upstairs. When I entered the room I found Lilian applying makeup. I cleared my throat, she froze. I went in, and waited for her to say somet

    Lilian Chaser*He shook his head. "No. You were right I was selfish. I just thought about Junior and not about your life. In fact, you should hate me after everything I have done. I deserve it. I wasn't ignoring you Lilian, I was just staying away from you so that you don't get hurt or cry because of me again.""Jason.”"I have caused enough pain to you Lilian because of my selfishness.""N-No." I shook my head.He smiled, a sad smile. "Yes. So, if me staying away from you makes you happy and if it doesn't hurt you then be it like that. I won't force you to do anything.I’ve done enough.”With that he left the pool, leaving me there alone in confusion.He is not serious. Right?I told him that I said that because I was angry.Will Jason leave me too?My mom died while giving birth to me, then my dad got locked up unjustly, then Nanny left me and now Jason too?Just the thought of that scared me, I stumbled back and my back hit the wall."No, he can't leave me.

    Lilian Chaser*I turned around with a smile. He came near me and frowned. "You were crying?" He asked.I shook my head and knelt in front of him. "No baby, why would I cry?""No, I saw you crying.""But I wasn't crying.""Yes you were. Don't lie to me.""I am not lying to you. Maybe you were just seeing things."Really? Am I?" He asked lost in his thoughts.I was just praying that he didn't see carefully. I nodded."Maybe." He shrugged, his face lit up again. "You know I found something while I was riding.""Really?"He nodded with a wide smile on his face. "See."He brought his hand in front when my eyes fell on a rose. "A red rose?""Shh... don't tell anyone, I saw it and I plucked it from the garden, you like Rose so I thought to give you this.”I smiled. "Aww... you know you are the best. I love you and thank you.""Welcome. Mommy now I am all sweaty sweaty, I'll go and take a shower."I nodded. Giving me the rose he ran to his room. I was making my way to my room when someone cal

    Jason Chaser*"Oh baby, how long are you planning to make him wait?"Lilian sighed and pecked my lips. A victory smile plastered on my face and I release her. She ran to the door and opened it. Junior came inside and gave a suspicious look, looking between me and Bella."I was knocking from that time, why weren't you opening?" He asked Lilian."Umm... w-we a-actually." Lilian stuttered then glared at me. I smirked."Baby we were actually sleeping." I replied."Yes we’re s-sleeping. We were sleeping.""Till now?" He asked."Yeah.” I replied getting up from the bed. "Now I'llgo and get cleaned up while little one, you go and wait downstairs. After the breakfast I have something to show you."Junior’s face lit up. "Really! What Dad?""That's a surprise."He frowned. "I hate surprises." I chuckled.After the breakfast, I took Junior outside, Lilian was following us while Junior was jumping out of excitement."Dad what is it?""Look there."

    Lilian Chaser*"Cartel?" I said in confusion.Why the fuck is this man here?I looked at Jason, I saw him getting stiffened.What's wrong with him?I stood beside Jason. "What are you doing hereCartel?" I asked in an angry tone."Had some work to finish." He said giving an evil smirk to Jason.What the hell is going on?"Just get out." Jason said in a calm tone."How can I, Mr. Chaser when I am being blamed of something I haven't done." He said with the same smirk on his face."What are you talking about?" I asked."Oh Lilian, you are so innocent, to fall for anyone's trap without even thinking." Cartel said."You know what, Jason is right, just get out. I don't want to know anything, you are the reason and cause of Nanny death.”"Actually in a way you can say that, but what about the truth that she hid from you." Cartel said shamelessly, like Nanny's death didn't matter tohim."What truth?" I asked in confusion. He smirked."That's it. Lilian, I think you should go back, I'll talk

    Lilian Chaser*"That's Angela." A voice came from behind me. I turned around to see Jason standing leaning against the door. His coat and tie both were off, he was wearing a dark blue shirt with sleeves rolled up and the first two buttons of his shirt were undone giving me the view of his tanned collarbones.I stared at him for sometime.Why is he telling me this? He was the one who decided to avoid me.He came inside the room, and stood in front of me looking at the picture with a smile on his face.Without saying anything I decided to just leave the room. I was about to leave but when I passed Jason he held my wrist."She is my sister. Actually was."Jason then held my waist pulling me closer to him, I felt my heart beating faster. I haven't still got used to him being so close, it feels the same everytime, the unusual heartbeat. Resting his head on my shoulder he continued "we loved to paint.""Jason you don't have to-"Ignoring what I was saying Jason continued "And she wanted to p

    Lilian Chaser*Chloe who was standing beside me started panicking "Oh my! Lilian a mosquito? We need to go to the doctor now. Show it to me first."She then peeped in my neck, I tried to hide it but I failed she pulled my arm pulling me closer, then she eyed at the spot properly. "This is a mosquito bite?" she asked in confusion.I looked down biting my lip. "Junior, this is a mosquito bite. But I don't think the mosquito was poisonous so your Mommy is so safe." She smirked looking at Jason.Jason eyes furrowed, he looked at the spot carefully then realised what it was. He cleared his throat."Dad you need to see through this matter.""Y-Yeah, I-I will." Jason said then drank the whole juice in one go.I was in the rooftop, sitting on the couch lost in deep thoughts. Junior was studying as his tutor was here. After last night I haven't got the chance to talk to Jason, All the time I was either with Junioror we were all together.It does matter to me, last night what happened. It was m

    Lilian Chaser*"Nanny, t-took the pills on her own will." I finally managed to say that.Jason looked at me in confusion. I showed him the letter. He read the whole letter then thought something. He then looked at me "Did you find anything else?"I shook my head."It has to be him." he mumbled looking at thepaper."What? Who?" I asked.He looked at me "I can't say properly but I think it has something to do with Nanny’s brother.”"But she was his sister.""I know but he was the only one in the house who was staying with her and why so suddenly she would decide something like this when everything was going fine.""So what are we gonna do about it?"Jason took a deep breath and gave the letter back to me "Don't worry I'll look into it."I nodded still thinking that why would he have something to do with all this.Jason held my hands in his, "Trust me Lilian."I just stared in his eyes.I do trust him. I think I trust him more than I even trust myself, I know he'll never let me down.Wh
