“No, no, no. You must be mistaken, he is Ramon. Elena’s friend,” he said, pointing his index finger aimlessly.

Ryan sighed, nodded his head, and then swallowed.

“I stayed up all night trying to wrap my head around it too. I found out last night,” he said.

Still, Zeke shook his head.

That was impossible, was it not?

Although he hated Ramon, very much in fact and he believed that something was off about the man right from the beginning but still, he still chose to believe that was because of his own personal feelings.

He knew the man liked Elena and mainly because of that, he had hated the man.

But… he was his cousin too?

“Investigate further,” Zeke dropped the pictures on the table, refusing to believe.

“You know that my information is correct. All the time,” Ryan shook his head.

Heck, he was right!

He had never had a reason to cross-check whatever information that his friend gave him.

“You are saying Ramon is family! That is even the least of my concerns… the fa

    “At this point, I think the Internet cannot function without you if you do not get aired in the news at least once a week.”While he drove, Ryan had bombarded him with calls like crazy and he had finally pulled to a corner just to receive the call only for the man to say that first.“What is going on?”“You are everywhere on the news… again.”Zeke exhaled and closed his eyes for a second. “What happened?”“You and Elena… it is finally out.”“What?”“The reason behind your separation.”“What?!” Zeke exclaimed.“And your recent charade… I mean… apology. The one outside of the building, it is all over the news too. You should see for yourself.”Zeke swallowed hard, nodded his head as if the man was there to see the gesture, and then ended the call.He rushed to the internet, and without much stress to type out his names as he was leading the charts just like every time, he clicked on it and then twitched his lips upward.The internet said that they separated because he cheated on Elena.

    “Wait, Daddy, wait!” Nathan shouted and stood up from his seat.“Boy, sit down back. It is dangerous standing in a moving car,” Zeke said to him.“Why are you taking us back home?!” He ignored him and asked.Zeke pulled the car gently and then turned to look at him.“Didn’t you agree that we would be spending a few days with you? This is just the second day. Why are you taking us back to our mummy?!” He cried out.Natalie jumped out of her seat too and then looked around.Apparently, Nathan had noticed that he had taken a different route from his own house and then they were on their way to theirs.They had a very fun day today. They went to the park. They went to an arcade bar. They went to see a movie. They did many things that the twins believed so deeply that the memories will forever be imprinted in their heads.Natalie shook her head vigorously and then started, “Are you tired of us already? Did we do much today? We will be more cautious next time, Daddy. Please don’t…”“Oh, sil

    “What happened?”“Elena…” he sighed and clasped his hands together.“If you do like this… you are making me scared. Did he do something that I am not aware of? You gotta tell me.”He nodded his head in agreement. He didn’t plan on hiding it from her.Ryan was right to have told him to let her know. She needs to be aware and wary of that man.“Do you remember Ethan? I’ve told you about him before.”“I remember! Did you find him?!” She exclaimed.Zeke nodded his head in agreement and she clasped her hands together.“Finally! Oh my God. Did you meet him? What did he say? Did he…”“He is in Italy currently. We have not met. However, he is living by a different identity now… and even a new face.”“He underwent surgery?” Elena raised a brow and Zeke nodded his head.“That is… messed up.”“It really is.”“So, what do you plan on doing now?”“He has two sons… and Ramon…” he hesitated and breathed out again.“Talk.”“Ramon is his son.”The room suddenly became more deafening to Elena as the ma

They jumped excitedly, held each other's hand, and then rushed out of the house.“I hope they are not stressing you?” She asked Zeke.Zeke chuckled, shook his head, and then answered, “Stressing me? I’m enjoying every moment, Elena, trust me. It would have been perfect if you had been here too,” he said and she rolled her eyes.“I mean it.”“Whatever. And Natalie. I hope she is still taking her medication.”“Of, course, Elena.”“Thank you.”He shook his head and then clasped his hands together, “Let me know if you hear from Ramon, okay? He might call you or whatever, just let me know.

    “You are pregnant, Mrs. Russo.”..Elena felt her stomach tied in a knot again for the umpteenth time as she remembered the piece of information the doctor had said to her at the hospital a while back.The last thing she had expected now… at this critical time was being pregnant, still it did not help but make her assume that it was only going to strengthen her relationship with her husband.Her marriage has almost hit the rock button— IF it has not even hit it yet.Of course, he did not love her.They did not marry because they loved each other. She loved him, it’s him who did not spare her a glance.She had been married to her husband, Zeke, for three years and all through the three years, she could count the amount of time that he had looked at her.Zeke did not like her, and he never hid that fact. After all, it was a loveless marriage and she had forced himself on him.Had she, though?Three years ago, because he needed to get some inheritance from his grandfather or something,

    “We are divorcing, Elena. Game is over.”Elena does not know which was more surprising. The words her husband had just said to her or the fact that the woman her husband was cheating on her with was her best friend.Her best friend. Camila. She sniffed gently and stood up grudgingly, leaving the brown envelope on the floor.“Z…Zeke, no, Camila?” She breathed heavily.“I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, and now… that is it. I hope you will sign it without any problem and…”“Zeke, that is my best friend!” She hollered.Both were painful, and she is yet to know which was more painful.She stared at Camila who looked away from her and settled on the table in the room. She looked like she could care less as she had been caught and right now, she wished for nothing more than to slap that look off her face.Camila had been her best friend for many years, and this was the woman she had told everything about what was going on in her marriage.“I think you should give him a bit of space

    Elena winced in pain for the umpteenth time as her lower belly shook in pain and stood from where she sat, then walked to the tall standing mirror in her room.She raised her chiffon top and then stared at her flat belly.Wondering why her stomach hurt, she poked the lower belly gently and then winced again as the pain hit her.“Aw!”“I should go to the hospital tomorrow…” she said to no one in particular after glancing at the wall clock and realizing that it was almost seven in the night.After she had left Zeke’s company in the afternoon, she had come straight home and had been literally sleeping since then.The last thing she wanted was to think about the divorce paper that she had received earlier the day as it does nothing than bring tears to her eyes.Finally, she trailed her eyes to the brown envelope on the nightstand beside her bed and then exhaled.It was not a dream, indeed. Her husband has presented the ‘death note to her.’As she stared at her reflection in the mirror fo

    “Fortunately, she arrived here earlier, else it might have been a different story entirely.”The doctor said as he adjusted the intravenous drip and then turned to look at Aria who stood behind him.“Is she okay now? And the baby?”“Yes, I must say, he is a fighter. He hung onto his mama really well,” he said and Aria smiled weakly.“Thank you.”“She should be awake soon. I will come back to check up on her,” he said and she nodded her head.“Alright. Thank you, Doctor.”After the doctor exited the room with the two nurses, she returned to sit beside her sister’s bed and then picked up her phone to check the time.It was almost six in the morning, and all she had been waiting for through the night was Zeke’s call.Was he not aware that his wife was not at home… in the room with him?Or… had he gone on a trip or something?She knew she had to keep all options open.Her sister has a nice relationship with her husband… as she had been told.It had taken everything in her to not go to the

    “What were you saying?” He asked as his eyes finally dropped on the photo book and the huge frame in Nathan’s hand.“Where did you get those?” He asked again.He had just finished cooking when the door had pushed open and Ryan had rushed in.“Hey, dude! What is going on?!” He exclaimed in pure surprise as the man had not informed him before coming.And not like he actually minded, he just knew that Ryan would not have shown up at his place unannounced very early in the morning.“Hey,” Ryan shook his hands before his eyes trailed down to the apron that was tied around his waist.“Ah… I just finished cooking,” he explained and untied it gently.“You… were cooking?” He raised a brow.“Yes. I made a very nice delicacy,” he smiled.“Since when did you start cooking?” Ryan laughed.“Well… I want to make their food by myself today.”“Who?”“My…”“Daddy!”And the screams of the children cut him short.“We found a room opened and it was there,” he answered as he handed the frame over to his fa

    Zeke opened his eyes finally, closed them back, and then tugged his lips gently into a smile.The kids were still sleeping soundly beside him and the sound of their soft snores sounded like music to his ears.He did not know he could sleep well because just like they were medicines, he had slept off too while he patted their back and told stories to them.Yeah, stories.The previous night, Nathan and Natalie rushed to his bed and then told him to come to their middle, which he did without much query.After he lay in the middle, he covered their body with a duvet before they asked that he tell them a story.“You are joking,” he shook his head, chuckling.“No, we are not,” Natalie shook her head too.He exhaled and smiled, thinking of excuses to bring up but they were adamant.Finally, he settled for one. One that was only imaginary that he wondered if the children would find it fun.“So… once upon a time,” he started.They scooted closer to him and he grinned harder.Even if he truly h

    “What?” Mateo laughed from the other end of the phone which made Ramon cussed inwardly.“I am coming back.”“When?”“Now. I’m at the airport.”A short silence ensued for a while before Mateo chuckled again.“Did something happen?”“Of course, and I can’t stay here any longer. At least for now.”“She rejected you again.”“It is not funny.”“Actually, I find it amusing that you are joining this fight because of a woman.”“My mistake was joining later. I will do anything as long as it would ruin Zeke.”“Ooooh, how much you have grown, brother!” He laughed.“I will be in Italy soon.”After he dropped the call, he glanced at the last-minute flight ticket in his hand and then exhaled.After Elena had gone to pick up the kids which he was certain were with Zeke, Ray had bluntly said to his face that he was disappointed in him and would not want to see him again.How could all of them turn on him in that manner?Karina who was most nicest amongst them all turned her back to him too and then h

Out of everything, her facial expressions were more funny.She looked like she was caught doing something bad.“We did not exactly watch you,” Nathan defended.“We just raised the curtain for a while to check up on you and we saw you doing that,” the girl raised her brows playfully.“And it looked quite intense so we didn’t want to disrupt anything,” Nathan added.“Shut up, shut up!” She snapped and Zeke laughed out again.“I’m sorry,” he waved his hands at her when she threw him a deadly stare.“So, why did you two kiss if you have not… like reconciled?” Natalie asked.Elena scratched her forehead and shook her head, “We didn’t kiss exactly.”“Oh…” the kids’ mouths formed an O in a quite sarcastic
