Silent Cry Chapter 5 - Hatred
3rd Person's POV "Let's get married." He pronounced as if none important, as if marrying someone would cost him nothing. "Why are you so dazed? Isn't that the reason why you agreed to come here?" Gabbie is now even more unable to speak. His tone was intimidating. "Or do you want to know more about me first?" He leaned on his chair as he fixed his coat and spoke, "As you can see, I am very capable that I can lift your status to the top of the world in just a second," he scoffed. No, it was not intimidating, rather insulting. "If you're curious about my education, my family background, skills, hobbies, and all, I am assuring you, I am more than what you expect." Gabbie could not believe what she is hearing. From the way he talked, his words, and even his expressions, she could not be more certain of her decision in the first place. She isn't marrying at this time, and definitely not this man. "Or maybe you're curious if I can give you the best sex, or if I can give you child...
Silent Cry Chapter 6 - Threat
Gabbie. After class, two days after the incident in the Evans' mansion, I rushed to Mr. Evans' office when I heard he came back already. Fortunately, I got appointed immediately when I made the secretary in the front desk call to the CEO's office. After five minutes of waiting in the lobby, I was escorted towards him. "Yes, come in, Ms. Sanchez. It was a surprise you came today. Should I expect some big news from you?" he pronounced while welcoming me and making me sit down on the couch but I refused to. "I will make this quick Mr. Evans since I know you're also busy with other appointments but I want to say, I refuse the marriage proposal," I bravely stated but his reaction didn't even flinch instead, he just sipped from the tea that's already on his table. I waited for what he'll say. He is currently looking somewhere else as he made a deep gulp on his drink before he faced me. My heart started to thump heavily again and the strength I stored before coming here is now slowly fad
Silent Cry Chapter 7 - Helpless
Gabbie. It was during our morning's last session when I got a message from Garry's school saying he got himself into trouble and I'm requested there.My eyes instantly widen up upon reading the context. That kid, seriously! What did he do this time?! Since using a cellphone is not advisable for this class, I discreetly replied saying I will be there this noon. Kiel noticed me quite unsettled so he leaned closer to me to check what is going on. He sits beside me, and Leia is in my front."Is there something wrong?" he inquired. I painted a smile and says, "The good brother of mine just put himself into trouble, again. But don't worry I am going there after this class."He nods, "Do you want me to accompany you?" He offered and I immediately declined and assured him that I can do it alone and safely. Kiel has become very attentive to me since this morning. He bought me snacks and gave me water without me requesting anything. He even carried my bag when I went to the bathroom and did
Silent Cry Chapter 8 - Courage
Gabbie.I did not attend the class in the afternoon. I have no courage to. I just cried at a near karaoke bar, locking myself in one of the cubicles. I texted my friends earlier that I am not feeling well but it's nothing serious so they don't have to worry.Despite that, my phone kept on ringing and it's just them two trying to reach me out. I'm sure they have sensed something wrong so they wanted to confirm it. But I can't answer any phone call right now. My voice will crack and it's hoarse from sobbing nonstop.In the end, I just turned it off.6:30 when I checked the time. Those long hours of being alone here have at least eased off some of my hatred and I think I am ready to go home. I retouched myself a little before stepping out of the cubicle. I am not a fan of going to nightclubs or karaoke bars, I just have to this time.The place is far more loud and brassy outside, people chatting here and there, dancing and singing all over the place. I put my two hands on top of my ears w
Silent Cry Chapter 9 - Farewell
3rd Person.It was silent. The physical distance between Gabbie and Kiel is not even a meter apart but the internal barrier felt like a kilometer long. No one is breaking the silence or even planning to at any moment. They both want to savor the relationship that is at the risk to change with the news that Gabbie is very willing to hide forever but about to spill.It's Saturday morning when Gabbie called Kiel for a meetup and now they are on their favorite bench in a basketball court just a few strides outside Gabbie's house. Leia is not with them and that made it more nerve-wracking for Kiel. 'Something is going on' is what he is thinking the whole time. But what makes that something different is that it should be said in the absence of their other best friend."I like you, Kiel."And that's it.It was said.In a very soft and relaxed voice.Gabbie did not look at him and even veered more when Kiel pointed his stares at her in utter shock.Gabbie could not hide this forever and she wa
Silent Cry Chapter 10 - Interest
Xander.I am sitting soundly in my office while my eyes are closed at the present climate. This way is how I savor the lack of responsibilities on me despite sitting as vice president of the Evans Company. I expected this thus far ever since I got appointed just a year ago. My father needs to secure my position now that some relatives are showing interest in our company claiming that I don't fit as the heir. As if they do. That cousin of mine is a dumbass crazy rascal and to saddle this company to a man like him would be the end of our whole business. I won't allow that, never.Suddenly, someone knocked. It should be Jameson and I was right. He came with the information and materials I needed."One day wasn't enough for you to gather these? When did you become this slow?" I scoffed while examining what he got for me this time. I already made him research about this girl when my father talked about that bullshit marriage. But that info was just too little yet enough to make me invite h
Silent Cry Chapter 11 - Miserable
3rd Person.Catching their breaths as they finally stopped is now Garry and his only friend Seth's condition. They end up in a parking lot at the back of their campus. Seth is still holding both his knees while Garry hurried up to help him stand up though he, himself is recovering from an endurance game."Are you ok? Those scumbags, one day they'll pay for this," Garry spat as his eyes are now burning while glaring in the direction from where they came from.They were bullied again with the presence of many students who did not give a damn about what was happening. They watched as what they used to do as if the brawl was like one of the must-watch fight scenes in movies. But both of them crawled their way out of there. They ran as fast as they could and maybe those group of buggers gave them pity to let them get off like cowards."I doubt that day will ever come," Seth sadly admitted, hopeless. But Garry grew grudge from that even more. "That day will come," he promised to himself "a
Silent Cry Chapter 12 - Surprise
Gabbie.Two weeks have passed, no issues came to me while living here. I am still studying of course and for those 14 days, I didn't have any interaction with that devil. Actually, I have never seen him anywhere. Maybe because I go to university very early in the morning and go home only to eat dinner and then lock myself inside my room. Also, the fact that this house is insanely huge even makes the possibility of me seeing him lesser. And if you'd ask, I am so happy about that.I just knew that his room is next to mine and after that is his office which has a connecting path to his room. Our veranda is connecting and I hate that. It is also the reason why I never went to that part of my room even once, afraid to have a glance of him if ever.But with all those cases, still, we never met even once for two weeks now. I continued my life as how it was before. I studied even harder and sometimes call my family. They seemed fine or maybe acting fine despite difficulties but they will neve

Silent Cry Chapter 65 - Healing
3rd Person's POVGabbie waited for him patiently on that green couch that didn't share some peace of mind. She wanted to be succored in the therapeutic environment of the house but she just can't get any. It is now getting dark and Xander is still nowhere to be seen. She called him many times though she isn't sure if the number is still working or maybe Xander destroyed it already six months ago.Eternal later, the door finally unlocked and Gabbie stood up to welcome Xander with so much worry in her eyes. The man's bearing now is a lot more eased than how he was when he went out.They stared at each other, wearing the same look that they totally understand without any words spilled. Xander was the first one to step towards her as she stood there still, waiting for the man to come close. Their eyes did not leave each other until they are now a foot apart. Xander held Gabbie's cheek and caressed it softly. "It's my fault," he started and Gabbie quickly shook her head in retort. "They ki
Silent Cry Chapter 64 - Desperate
3rd Person's POVGabbie continued her steps towards him, carrying the most usual look she can gather. "I was worried you've left already," she sighed out of relief."W-What are you doing here?""Me? I'm fetching you, what else?" She then grabbed his polo and reached it to him. She is cognizant enough that she's too natural to be true as if this isn't the first time they saw each other after six long months. But she cares less about it, she will act this way.Xander observed her demeanor for some time until he snatched his polo from her and continued his outfit change in her front. He was not saying anything.Gabbie then attempted to help with his buttons but Xander looked away. "I can do it," he faintly stated."Yeah, sure. Uhm, then I'll just get your shoes," she offered again and tried to get them but Xander was fast enough to take them first. "No need," he is still sounding austere.Gabbie can do nothing now but wait for him while she continued her tales and TMIs. "The weather is so

Silent Cry Chapter 60 - Sick
3rd Person's POVThe police captured Xander's father without him resisting. But the way he looked at his son speaks a lot—disappointment, rage, and grief. Xander didn't bat an eyelash since he expected it that way though he cannot face him directly. After all, he is his father. The police all went out meeting the enthralled press. The reporters and other scoop-diggers were just too many that the path was almost blinding due to nonstop flashes of cameras.Xander and Jameson were the only ones left inside the room and they are still looking at each other. Until Xander walked near him, "You happy now?" he gritted his teeth."You think I am? I never told you to do that for me. I should be the one to capture that darn man! Why did you block my way? Why?!""I didn't do that for you. I did it for myself coz I am a victim, too. Yet, unlike you, I didn't use anyone else to claim the justice I want because if appeasing my pain would result in the pain of others, ain't I the same darn man, then
Silent Cry Chapter 59 - Capture
Jameson's POV"Make sure everything is burnished. You hold the program's flow, you understand?" I am now on the technical team, giving final words before the anniversary commences. The sound engineers nodded to me to manifest assimilation of their job's importance in today's event. I took that as aplomb before I stepped out of the room.By the door stood five guards who are stolidly attentive to their assigned space. But why are security guards looking so manly these days? This is giving me some treat, you know. Unluckily, it's not in my bag this time. I have some life-death matter on my hands and giving an eye of duty to the one guard standing on my right is one step of the plan. The guard responded in kind with my unnoticed eyes on him and it tells something around the word trust. He should be taking care of these other bunches of handsome guards upon cued or else I'll be banned in Clyde's bed. This is it, this is the final show.Since Xander planned the program, I have also been
