2021-08-10 16:00:07Liam’s P.O.V.
Diane would surely freak out if she would wake up with me after our argument, and she might get mad at me even more. That was why I decided to just go to Nana Lydia first.
She was our former housemaid, who almost raised Leandro and me. She would still come to the mansion to clean and cook for us. I knew that Kyla had a lot of clothes there, and I was sure that those would also fit Diane. Kyla was the only child of Nana Lydia, whom I considered a real sibling while growing up.
While driving quietly, I just couldn’t help myself from glancing at the woman I loved. Diane’s appearance now was not that far from the way she looked before—the first time I saw her lying in the living room of my condo about four years ago.
Although I searched for her, never did it occur in my mind that fate would still make a way for us to meet again. And not only that, sh

Sins of The Past 090 | As Soon As Possible
Liam’s P.O.V.Diane was quick enough to grab my two arms before throwing up straight to my chest. Standing in front of her, I froze at my position while slowly internalizing what she did. Now I realized that nothing could beat my love for her… even the tailored price of this coat.How I wished that I was able to record everything that Diane had said. She confessed that she would never let me go and she would fight for me no matter what. That alone brought a confident smile to my lips, and just like what she admitted to me in the car earlier, my heart jumped again out of relief and satisfaction.It was actually shallow, knowing that Diane was even drunk at this time, but I would never trade that promise for anything else. Although she vomited at my favorite coat, I seemed not to smell her retch over my chest. It doesn’t matter anymore as I could easily buy a new coat. I loved her! I jus

Diane’s P.O.V.“And I left just this morning. I didn’t wake you up because you looked so tired. I also have something to take care of in the office, but you know what? I had to finish my work at the soonest possible time to get back to you right away.” Liam’s stunning dimple manifested while explaining the whole story of what happened last night.“Besides, you might still be mad at me… I’m kind of nervous that you would sneak and suddenly run away from Nana the moment you woke up,” he additionally remarked. Liam was driving me home by now. I was wearing his gift—a chiffon, short-sleeved, and knee-length dress in black. It has a stylish zipper in front and the dress itself was indeed elegant.I was glad that we fixed everything, and I realized that the problem wasn’t him but me. Now, I had something new to exert an effort and be matu

Diane’s P.O.V.“D-Does it happen that y-you also forgot… what h-happened to u-us… almost four years—” Liam was stuttering until he decided not to continue his full statement. Shock covered my whole body when he anxiously hit the steering wheel while clenching his teeth. “Damn it!”After what he raucously did, Liam rubbed his face with his palms and grabbed a fistful of his hair. He pulled on it while he was quite shaking in dread. He looked so amplified with terror as if he had no escape, but why was he acting this way?Honestly, something stabbed my chest, and I quickly became nervous about what he was doing. It was the first time I saw Liam acting like this and I must admit, it made me move an inch from my seat. I held my chest because my heart was drumming so loud, and my eyes were all wide open. Was Liam mad, scared, furious, hurt, or troubled? I didn

Diane’s P.O.V.After we took our late lunch, Liam and I went straight here to his condo unit at LC Towers, but he promised to drive me home before midnight. Liam gave me his phone, and I called Mom. She doesn’t even seem to worry because my boyfriend already told her my whereabouts beforehand.We hadn’t even been able to get inside his unit, but we couldn’t stop ourselves from lip-locking and sharing exploratory kisses. I was even removing his tuxedo while he was inputting his passcode. I couldn’t help myself from unbuttoning his inner shirt too. Despite what happened, I couldn’t change the fact that we were still so eager to taste each other.Excited to be with my strikingly handsome boyfriend, I couldn’t move my body away from him even an inch. He seemed to be a gorgeous magnet as if I just wanted to stick with him even more. I just wanted him&

Diane’s P.O.V.To date, this had been the saddest day of my life.The gloom was covering me like an invisible robe, seeping through my skin. Eventually, it was converted into a string of pulses that traveled towards my heart, accessing me morosely.Aside from the fact that no one was present in the house when I woke up earlier—I didn’t even have any idea where Mom and my siblings had gone through—I was also overly stressed at work. I even had dark eye bags showing on top of my cheeks, resulting from drowning myself in frequent and consecutive overtimes, which I just covered up with a concealer. Stress was making me vulnerable.Being stressed at work was completely normal. I had already been used to fatigue since it had always been a part of my daily routine as an accountant.But the fact that I couldn’t see even the end of Liam

Diane’s P.O.V.My eyes instantly glazed at him before I found myself gracelessly smiling at him. I was not in the right mood for this, so I elbowed his stomach, and he groaned in pain.Then, I drastically removed his arm from my shoulder and slightly stepped away from him. After all, I wasn’t used to being attached to a man’s body.But of course, Liam was the only exception. I could snake my body to him forever.“Hmm… what are the possible reasons that you, men, would suddenly get bored with your girlfriends?” Instead of answering his question, I asked Lorenz without even looking at him.I was actually outside the Moonbucks Coffee Shop, holding my chocolate chip cream frap. I blankly stared at nowhere while my mind was going somewhere as I thought of Liam, so I wasn’t aware of my best friend’s sudden appearance.

Diane’s P.O.V.“Hey, it’s getting late… aren’t you going home? I can drive you,” Lorenz offered while throwing his half-used cigarette in a nearby trash can. I did the same thing with the frap container I already used up.I just nodded at Lorenz, then we walked side-by-side to where his car was parked. Because it was unquestionably a stressful, annoying, and maddening day for me, I accepted his offer of driving me home. I also didn’t want to commute and walk.Lorenz was truly a gentleman while opening the door for me. After the scene that happened last month, what circulated in EGC was about a romantic relationship between the two of us, and not between me and Liam.The gossip turned out that Lorenz and I were not just classmates then, but college sweethearts. Lorenz just laughed it off. Little did people know here that my boyfriend was inde

Diane’s P.O.V.It was traffic at seven in the evening, and it made me forget what I was thinking. It looked like it would be past eight o’clock before Lorenz could finally take me home because there wasn’t even a slight change on the stuck cars along the expressway. It was indeed a good thing that I went with him, and that was less stress over the congestion of traffic.“Crap, it’s always heavy traffic on our way home! Anyway, would you like to share some details on your upcoming wedding, bestie? When would it be?” I asked him with a sarcastic smile, teasing him in the process. For sure, Lorenz’s blood would boil again in an instant.Alright, let me count on it… in three, two, one…Lorenz madly looked at me, and he devilishly smirked. The corner of his lips twitched afterwards, and his facial expression stayed like a fi

Diane’s P.O.V.It was so clear that I had to close my eyes. I needed this memory because I was sure that it was one of those that I forgot. I had an absolute strong feeling that it would make me understand what was happening around me right now…“Why? Are you a nurse, Diane?” Liam asked, but I couldn’t focus anymore because his dimple was so mesmerizing. It used to tingle my insides, and when he lightly kissed the tip of my nose, it felt so good.“No, and there was no way I could be a nurse. I just really liked to read sometimes, and of course, I also took a short First Aid training course. I am actually an Accountancy student,” I affirmed before swiftly removing myself underneath his body. It was kind of awkward for me that I might forever want to be attached to him.Being under Liam’s body was so electrifying, b

Diane’s P.O.V.I hesitantly opened my mouth, afraid of my mother’s reaction once she would find out. But even before I could speak again, that Liam shamefacedly spoke in front of me, and I didn’t know why my heart pounded differently.Like me, his tears were flowing on his face unceasingly. And at some point, I could feel that his tears were real… and those were silently telling me to trust him.“Diane, please forgive me. Please… let’s start all over again and allow me to make up for everything. God knows I didn’t mean what happened, and if only I am sober that night, I would have never hurt you. I would have never ruined your life.”“Please listen to me. I was drugged by that time, and I didn’t even know how my friends got you. I commanded them to take you back to where they got you and not even lay a finger on you.

I missed you so much,’ huh? And he also called me Diane? Crap! Coming from a rapist like him, I would never accept that!After the heinous crime that he did to me? After he ruined my dignity? After he ravaged me for so many times while filling his deadly lust on top of my innocent body? Does he really have the face to show in front of me after he tore my life apart and shattered my dreams?He never knew what I went through after that brutal night. I became a distortion that was unable to find my way back to my family. My physical body was able to get home the next morning, but my soul didn’t. Each day was a battle within me, as I never

Liam’s P.O.V.Although preoccupied, I cut my painful flashbacks when my cellular phone suddenly rang.“Hello?” I answered hastily with weary eyelids. I didn’t even get the chance to see who called and just answered my phone, thinking that it was the police officers and they already had an update regarding Leandro.“Hello, big bro? I know that you haven’t yet rested well, but this news can’t wait anymore. My sister was finally awake!” The voice from the other line was hinted with great anticipation, which was owned by none other than David—Diane’s teen brother.Depriving myself of sleep for two weeks now, I hadn’t yet slept since I came home this morning. My body was like it had been on a treadmill, wanting so much to press stop due to restlessness. But after hearing the great news concerning Diane, my muscles see

Liam’s P.O.V.“Don’t worry, big bro. My eldest sister had always been a fighter all her life, and who knows? She would soon open her eyes. Later, or tomorrow perhaps, I believed that she would wake up. Big sis would never leave us.” Denise tried to comfort me. Her nose was as red as a tomato due to her non-stop crying.She then hugged me, and I returned the same hug to ease her pain too. At these times, I didn’t know where I could get the additional courage to be strong.Actually, I admired Denise. At the age of three, she was deprived of a chance of having a real father to look up to, but she still remained bright and cheerful. She was like Diane, strong-willed, and I hoped that my fiancée would surpass the operation.That was when I saw how Shey and the rest of our company rushed in our direction. Apart fr

Liam’s P.O.V.“D-Diane, are you okay?” I knew she was not, and yet, I still asked her. My heart sank when she just smiled at me before her eyes heavily drifted, prompting her to lose consciousness.“No, Diane… o-open your eyes, please! Oh, God… please, don’t take her away from me.” My right hand softly held her cheeks. I touched some of her blood, and the pain was burning within me.‘Goddamn it!’It was all my fault. If I hadn’t rushed us to get married—if we hadn’t left tonight and just moved the flight tomorrow morning—this accident wouldn’t have happened at all.And one more thing—I should have checked the car first before using it. But I couldn’t help but wonder about how this happened.A
Sins of The Past 114 | His Angelic Face
Diane’s P.O.V.Had we been together for years? But how did we first meet, and how did he propose to me that he wanted us to get married? Did he do the traditional way of kneeling while holding the ring?Did he do it in front of my family? Did I say ‘yes’ easily? How romantic was it, and what did I exactly feel about it?So many questions began flooding my mind and speaking of his marriage proposal, I automatically looked at my hands. Then, I saw something that was marvelously shining on my left forefinger.It was a fabulous engagement ring. It was comprised of two rings in one, with the upper ring having a big diamond at its center.Wow! Just wow!I gasped for air while still couldn’t help myself but get completely amazed about how it looked. Words were not enough to precisely describe how I
Sins of The Past 113 | Who Is Liam?
Diane’s P.O.V.So, I forgot the last four years of my life? I lost the last four years of my memory? But how can I take them back? God, please! I need to get them back.Hopeless and left with no other choice, I just couldn’t help myself but shed tears again. I tried to remember what happened to me after that incident four years ago, but I couldn’t remember any further details, aside from my best friends, Karen and Lorenz.The latter was even a bit feminine, and that was all I knew. It was just unfortunate because when I woke up earlier, the two just went home. My mother told me that my best friends hardly left my hospital room. The two were even acting raucous in an attempt to wake me up as soon as possible.However, I didn’t know how to face them both because, at some point, they might look like strangers to me even though we were all best o
Sins of The Past 112 | Diane's Amnesia
Diane’s P.O.V. I opened my mouth, but no words came out of it. With how butterflies tingled my stomach from that memory, I could feel like my heart was exhilarating, pulses were racing, and everything was real. At the same time, I got frustrated—feeling unfulfilled. Did I have a boyfriend, and it just happened that my mind had forgotten him? But how? My mind naturally stirred back into the present, but my heart looked like it dwelled in the past. It was trying to pull my inner self to remain in my trance. It was a good memory and worth keeping safe in my heart, but I wanted to fully remember it back. “Diane?” The doctor called me, dragging me out of my reverie. “Yes, Doc. If I wasn’t mistaken, t-they are my best friends… Karen and Lorenz?” I told the doctor as I dismissed the mentioned guy from my recollection. I
