'Tonight, exactly seven p.m., at the bachelor's village. Wear something decent. You'll be meeting your fiance.' I read my brother's text.I quickly put down my cellphone after reading the message.I'm currently watching an old netflix movie.I breathed a sigh of relief."I guess, this is it". I whispered softly.I did nothing else all day but sit and watch movies.I completely lost the desire to watch. The truth is, I've had no appetite for a while. I was just staring at the TV while my mind wanders somewhere.I stood up to turn off the TV.I also opened the glass door of my balcony to let the fresh air into my room.It's past five p.m.I've been really annoyed by the coldness and smell of my air conditioner.My mood was happy earlier but after I finished eating, it suddenly changed.I hated a lot. Even the smiling face of my teddy bear, I hate it too.I lay down on my bed then gently caressed my stomach.My phone suddenly rang. I stood up to take it.Unregistered number is calling.I
I was expecting him to apologize for what he did but I was wrong. He disappointed me and hurt me even more.He is a really bad and a big fat ass liar. That man is indeed heartless.The courage to offer me that thing. He thinks so shallow of me.What a bastard! I wish he would felt even a slightest sorry for what he did to me.I hope I never meet him again. He will just keep on hurting me.Tears started forming in my eyes.I looked up to stop them from falling.How could he do these to me?! He made me fall in love with him. Then this will I get in return ?!I wish I had just avoided him before. I wish the first time that girl warned me, I would have listened immediately.Many questions and fears formed in my mind during the times we were together but I chose to ignore it.And now I suffer from the consequences of being fragile.I prefer to believe and dictated by my heart rather than what my mind says.The proofs were right in front of me but I chose to ignore them because I love him.
It's already past nine p.m. when I finished taking a shower.I put on the clothes that Vish lent me. He lent me a t shirt and short shorts that he said he never wore.His clothes are comfortable to wear especially his shirt because it is oversize.Vish also sent my bodyguard and driver home because he told them that I was going to sleep here.I was drying my hair with a towel when I suddenly smelled cigarette smoke.My face suddenly wrinkled.I really hate the smell of cigarettes.I approached the open window. I peeked where the smoke was coming from.Until I stopped looking to my right.I saw Vish while smoking on the small balcony. His arms rested on the railings while looking up at the sky.I left the window.I quickly combed my hair then I left the room.I saw another young maid carrying bedsheets. I came to her."Hi". I greeted her. The girl just smiled at me. "Can you take me to Vish? I saw him on the balcony. I don't know the way on there"."Yes, ma'am. Follow me." The girl agr
I heard a loud and straight knock on the door.I forced my eyes open. I waited for seconds until my vision became almost clear. Rubbing my eyes I looked at the open window.I could see the orange colored sky. The sun is just starting to rise.The knocking on the door continued."Coming!" I shouted hoarsely as I got up and removed the blanket from my body.The knocking on the door has stopped.I got out of bed then slightly walked towards the door. I immediately opened it.Vish's young maid came up to me."Good morning, Ms. Mercado. Sir said you two should have breakfast together. He is waiting downstairs". She was smiling.I smiled sparingly at her. "What time is it?""It's five o'clock in the morning, miss. Sir wakes up really early". She replied as if she read what was on my mind."Alright. I'll be down in fifteen minutes."The girl suddenly reached for the clothes she was holding. "This is the dress you will wear today. Sir said to give these to you".I accepted them with a smile.
I looked at the wall clock on my left.It's already past midnight.A while ago I was tossing and turning in bed because I couldn't sleep.I can't get Kiel out of my mind.Ever since I laid down in bed earlier, I couldn't get the young man out of my mind.Images of him keep flashing on my head. I don't know but those things just randomly come to my mind. Including our happy and sweet moments together.I couldn't help myself but to smile.Suddenly, the scene in the airport's lobby flashed in my head.I remembered everything he said at that time. Including his offer.The smile on my lips disappeared.Will you be my mistress?I suddenly heard those words again.I cursed him in my head.Disgusted, I covered my face with a pillow and shouted at the same time.I got up quickly."I really hate that bastard. How I wish your conscience won't let you sleep at night because of what you did to me". I whispered angrily.I threw the pillow I was holding into the corner and at the same time pinched m
The next day.It's ten in the morning.Suddenly, the door of my room opened while I was putting away my bed. My brother was standing there.I stopped what I was doing."You need to prepare yourself. Your fiance will pick you up tomorrow at one p.m for your wedding pictorial". He said with a straight face."Aren't you coming?" I immediately asked.He shook his head. "There's no need for that. Only you and the groom need to take a pictorial". He answered.I nodded. "Okay thanks".My brother closed the door again.I suddenly remembered what my sister said last night.I felt so bad for my brother and sister. I am silently praying that one day, they will feel the feeling of being free.Both of them deserve it. They had been through a lot of pressure. They deserve a rest.I hope I can do something to free my brothers and sisters from the things they are burdened with even if only for a short time.I am promising to myself that I will find ways to make it happen.I feel that I am missing a l
I woke up at exactly eleven p.m. My stomach is churning. I feel like eating sweets.I am currently in Vish's house. The young man made me sleep there after our long photoshoot earlier.I only ate a little earlier because I rested quickly. I got tired quickly so I fell asleep early. Alas, it was probably only six in the evening when I fell asleep right away.I got off the bed then left the room.I went out without a sound.The whole house is dark and quiet.Every step I took down the stairs was weak. And when I got down, I immediately rushed out the door. I quietly opened the door, it wasn't locked, then I went out.I was immediately greeted by a cold and strong wind. I hugged myself.I closed the door again then stepped away. I will look for a nearby store. I left the Village and then walked a few meters.I saw a 7/11 store. I immediately went in there and looked at the sweet foods.Chocolate ice cream, chocolate bars, and more chocolate flavored food. I took those foods. I drooled wh
I'm tossing and turning. Since I got home earlier in the morning, I became restless. I must have been lying down for more than two hours but I still couldn't sleep.After having an hours of a steamy interaction with Kiel, he finally released me. It even took me to the opposite side of Vish's house.I actually felt sad and disappointed when I saw the young man leaving earlier. I don't want to let him go. I would like to stop it but I know I can't.That was the last time anything would happen between the two of us. I am sure.It was such a great last moment with him though.I didn't know but, when I saw Kiel earlier and heard what he said, my mind just suddenly forgot all the hatred and anger I felt towards him.I feel like I want to forgive it even though it doesn't ask for forgiveness.I must be going crazy.My heart is broken.No matter how hard I try, the feelings of my heart always prevail over what my mind dictates.I got up and turned away in disgust.Suddenly the bedroom door op
When the night came, the whole house was in total silent. El was in his room sleeping after he had his dinner. While me and Kiel are in the glass room on his rooftop. It was a mini room with a small table and two chairs.We are having hot chocolates. I could still feel the cold air even when the door and window were closed. There's even a comforter wrapped around my body while I am sitting.In front of this room is the glass bedroom where we three usually sleep for the past week.Kiel is just beside me, silently taking a sip on his cup. We are both looking at the starry sky. The light from the full moon makes this moment a little more special.Silence enveloped us for the past ten minutes. Until I decided to cut it off.I placed my cup on the table and rested my head on his shoulder."What are you thinking?" I asked in a soft tone."I am thinking how beautiful my life will be if I am going to spend the rest of it with you and our son. I am daydreaming." He answered.I am also feeling
We stayed in his house for one whole week. He is not hiding us from my family or something like that. He just wanted to make us stay with him 'cause he was too afraid that if he let us go, he won't see us anymore.I decided to stay with him because just like him, I was also afraid that if we left, we won't see him again.For the past week, he was so busy that he barely makes time for me and El and we understand him. We understand his reason why he is shoving himself with his laptop and phone.Everyday I see intense dedication in his eyes. He is obviously doing everything he can in his power. And I am just here silently supporting him.I already informed Vish about my decision on staying here a week ago and he was okay with it. I mean, he said he can't do anything about it because he is no longer my husband. He was also okay with me unofficially taking a leave from work.So far, I haven't heard anything from my family. They didn't even call me or something like that.And their silence
It was the best sleep of my life after three years. Sleeping with people you loved the most will really have your heart peace.I woke up when I felt someone kissing me on the forehead.When I opened my eyes, Kiel's smiling face was the first thing I saw. He is on top of me, but I couldn't feel his weight because he used his hands in between my face as his body support."Good morning, my queen." He greeted with a smile that made my heart skipped a beat."Good morning." I greeted back and smiled. I just hope my mouth doesn't smell bad'cause he is literally only an inch away from me."It's time for breakfast." He announced.I let out a soft chuckle. "Then you better get off from me now."He just suddenly kissed me on the lips. I was caught off guard, but I still responded to him with a kiss and closed my eyes.It was only a short kiss. He then stopped it and went to get off me. He helped me for up. And after that, we were holding hands as we leave the rooftop and went dow to his kitchen
I woke up when I felt like someone was touching my face trying to wake me up.When I opened my eyes, I saw the face of my worried and confused son. He was looking at someone behind me.We fell asleep last night while hugging each other. I realised he was looking at Kiel who was hugging me from behind.I got up and patted Kiel's arm around me, trying to wake him up. He groaned before opening his eyes and let go of his grip from me.I got up and sat on the couch. I then carried my son and made him sit on my lap. El is still confusedly looking at Kiel.Kiel got up and also sat on the couch. He cleared his eyesight and watched my son, our son."Good morning, babe. How was your sleep?" I asked him first. He looked up at me."Geyt!" He replied. He meant "great".He then looked at Kiel again and he suddenly pointed his finger at him.Kiel reached for our son's hand and kissed it. "Good morning to you little guy." He greeted him.El watched him for a few seconds before moving and sat on Kiel'
The next day, Vish invited us to over to his house. It’s weekend anyway that is why we don’t have much work to do.When we arrived at his house, a delicious smell of newly cooked welcomed us. My son went excited after smelling it.He happily and excitedly shouted something and ran to the kitchen. My son loves food especially if they were cooked by Vish.I followed to the kitchen and then saw my son getting carried by Vish. He is wearing an apron and he's holding a spatula on his one hand.I came to him and kiss his cheek."You guys are just right in time. I'm cooking your favourite adobo ang ginisang gulay." He said. "Did you guys already have lunch yet?"I shaked my head. "Not yet. I know you will be cooking for us so I didn't bother to cook something for me and El for lunch." El is my son's name.“Well, then, sit yourself. I’m just gonna prepare the food.” He made El sit on his baby chair. He haven’t remove them since we move out. “I’m sure you’ll love these.” He added.“We always l
When five thirty pm hits, I went to give my son and me a bath. The party will start at seven. I still need to pick clothes to wear in our closet 'cause I haven't picked one yet.Plus, I need to do my makeup. Our schedule was hectic for the past few weeks and even if I sometimes do a skin care routine, that won't hide the pimples and tiny holes on my face due to stress.I need to take care of both of us tonight since the nannies just took their one day day-off due to family emergencies.After taking a bath, I made my son wear a grey suit with a tiny ribbon on its neck. He loves it and it was also his favourite colour. I then went to grab a silver above-the-knee and fitted dress. It was strapless and it perfectly showed off my curves.I always felt confident about my body even though there are tons of pervs everywhere. But, I didn't care 'cause they would get broken fingers first before they could actually lay them on me.I am a badass, they say. So might as well portray that role witho
3 years later….I was smiling from ear to ear as I watched my son play with his friends in daycare. He's only two yet I already enrolled him in daycare.I wanted him to have friends since he doesn't have one in our neighbourhood. I never thought that I could see him as happy as like now. He's usually the type who would only talk if needed. He's not shy, he just always prefers to watch cartoons on his own.Right now, he laughed like there's no tomorrow. He plays like he wanted to befriend everyone his eyes landed on. He giggles like he just heard the funniest joke ever created. I don't see this side of him everyday, especially since I mostly work overtime for his future.I just want the best for him. That is why I worked as a secretary for my now ex-husband. We have mutual feelings. Love was not present in our marriage. We are like bestfriends living in one house acting like a perfect and lovely couple.I was glad he offered me to work as his secretary after our divorce was finalised.
It's five in the afternoon. I was wearing a blue oversized shirt and denim shorts.After I and Kiel did the deed, the yacht we were riding stopped on the seashore of an island. The island we are currently on is silent and peaceful.Kiel said it belonged to him. It's one of his properties.The young man and I walked hand in hand on the white sand toward the lone and big house we could see.When we finally got inside, we were greeted by a manly scent.Kiel's scent is all over the place.All the furniture that my eyes' sees screams luxury, from the large chandelier hanging in the middle, to the furniture arranged properly.And the surrounding wall is made of glass. Even though we were inside, I could still see the beautiful scenery outside.The young man and I entered a room with a white bed and surrounded by half of the glass wall so we could see the blue ocean even the scattered bodyguards of the young man. The bed faces the blue ocean and there is nothing else to see inside but the be
When only a few people were left inside the church, Kiel stepped closer to me.I stepped back. He was just straightly looking at me.Suddenly, he pointed a gun at Vish, causing him to retreat as well.Then Kiel even steps closer."Let go of her!" Kiel gave an emphatic order.My grip on the young man tightened even more. He looked at me and I could see the fear in his eyes.I immediately felt guilty. I loosened my grip on Vish's hand.Then Kiel quickly pulled me away from it.It removed the focus of the gun on Vish but his colleagues took over.Kiel's gun was down as he pulled me out.Tears started forming on my eyes until they suddenly slid down my cheeks.We even passed my parents and brother as they looked at me in fear. Even they can't do anything to stop what's happening.Kiel pulled me hard. I almost fell down. The weight of my gown and the six inches heels I was wearing added even more.Until we got out of the church. Scattered around were people whose faces were full of fear.K
