Molly:Farrell was unpredictable, because somedays we would fight, he would make up immediately, and other days it took a while.The previous day's fight was intense so I didn't know what exactly to expect. I woke up when I heard a loud knock on my door. When I opened my eyes, I noticed that it felt heavy. I jumped out of bed, and went straight to the large mirror by my dressing table.When I looked into it, I saw that my eyes were swollen from crying. I definitely needed something to massage it.My head throbbed a bit too, so I held onto it, and walked to the door to open it."Good morning, ma'am," Rose said to me, and I groaned."Is there a problem? Do you need some aspirin?" She asked, and I stared at her with wrinkled brows. "I'm sorry.. your head…""I'm fine," I said, taking my hand off my head.I didn't mean to look or sound rude,I was just curious about something else. What I wanted to know at the moment was Farrell's whereabouts."Have you seen my husband today?" I asked, and
Molly:Farrell's words stung deeply last night, and I found it difficult to sleep. I sat up in the living room with my legs crossed to my chest, and my head buried in between them. I wanted to cry, scream, and yell, but I would only disturb myself because the person I was angry at wasn't home.For hours, I sobbed silently waiting for him to come home but he never did. Then I continued to worry about him, until I fell asleep. ******The morning swept by real quick, and I was awoken by the sound of Farrell's car pulling up in the compound. The moment he opened the front door, my eyes opened wide, and remained open as I saw him walk into the house in a zigzag manner.Was he drunk? I asked myself, as I stared at him.He banged the door with a loud thud, and made his way to the living area while I scrutinized him from top to bottom. His hair was disheveled, his shirt wasn't properly buttoned, and his sleeves were rolled.Seeing this made me uneasy, so I stood up from the seat then I walke
Molly:I was weak compared to Farrell, so I couldn't do anything to help him. My body trembled badly, and I was pricked with confusion."Rose!" I yelled, standing up, and walking towards the hallway where the helpers resided.It was still a bit early, and I knew most of them weren't awake yet. I yelled her name once more, and she appeared in her nightgown."Is everything.." before she could finish, she spotted Farrell on the floor, and she put her hands over her mouth."We need to get the doctor!" She said, and then it occured to me that my phone was on one of the couches, so I rushed over to the couch I had slept on.I picked up the phone, and it slipped from my hands. Then Rose helped me with it. She dialed Dr. Cheng, and placed the phone on my ear then I supported it with my hand."I'll get the guards to take him up to his room," she said, rushing outside.My heart thumped really fast as I waited for the doctor to pick his call. His phone rang three times before he finally picked
Farrell:"Where am I?" This was the first statement I asked when I opened my eyes. Then I looked around to see that I was lying on my bed. My headache was a bit, and my memory was a bit hazy but then I remembered I had a sensational period with Molly. This brought a smile to my face, and then I forced myself out of bed to get an aspirin.The moment I stood up, my door swung open, and Courtney walked in with tears in her eyes. I was alarmed at first then I remembered I had asked Molly to call her.Knowing whatever that had happened was not far from Molly's doing, I sighed deeply waiting for her to lay her complaints while I walked to my drawer to get an aspirin."You are awake," she said, calmly, shutting the door behind her.I pulled open the drawer on my table, then I took out the container of aspirin, and popped a pill, downing it with a bottle of water on my table."How do you feel?" Courtney asked, and I sighed deeply, walking over to the bed to sit down.I placed my hand shortl
Farrell:For long I had been a coward. I acted tough on the outside but deep down I was nothing more than a hurt child who had to grow up very fast. I had responsibilities stacked on my shoulder at such a young age, and blaming my past was the easiest way to escape reality but I was getting tired.I hated myself for letting Molly go like that. I wanted to tell her that I would change for her but I had made that promise many times, and I was scared I would fail again. The last time I tried to conquer my past was when she left, and I was saved by Courtney. It almost cost me beating up a defenseless old lady.The only way to do this was to open up old books, and wounds, then find a way to heal. It would be difficult but there was no other way, and running away from my problems would only keep severing my relationship with Molly.My thought was cut short by the sound of my phone ringing. I walked over to my bed to see Pedro's name displayed on the screen."Is everything alright, Mr. Gusta
Molly:Farrell had to be joking, placing Pedro to watch over me. I had to find a way to frustrate Pedro too because I needed space to think, and I didn't want anyone following me around like a fly. Although his footsteps were almost silent, I still found it irritating.When I left the gate,I walked very fast, making him increase his pace. Then I slowed down a bit. I continued this way, while turning back momentarily to get his facial expression.He seemed to be having a hard time, and I was enjoying it. When we got to a cross road, I hurriedly crossed the road as I noticed a lot of cars coming at once. This got him on his toes, but he couldn't do anything because he risked getting knocked down if he came after me.While I was at the other end, I watched as he waited for the traffic to clear up."You were a few minutes late, and I could have been Kidnapped at this side of the road," I said to him when he finally crossed over.Before he could speak, I walked away, and he followed me aga
Farrell:After so much contemplation, I grabbed the keys to Maria's room. I made up my mind to keep an open mind. I had to heal from this trauma, or else I would pass it over to my innocent kids who were on the way.When I left my room, I noticed how late it was. Molly crossed my mind, and I hope deep down that she could hold on a little longer until I figured myself out. Quietly, I walked through the long hallway that led to her room. I placed my ear on the door opposite which was were the old lady stayed. I heard her giggle to herself as usual, and I turned around to face Maria's door.I walked to the door, inserted the key, and pulled it open. To my greatest surprise he lights were on, and I heard the shower running."What the?" I questioned myself, slamming the door, and rushing to the bathroom to turn off the shower.The thought that Molly just have been here got me annoyed a bit but then I tried to push it away. I had to push off every little hint of anger. I began to convince
Farrell:"Maria!" I screamed, and then I jerked up at once. I looked around to see that I was lying on Maria's bed.The sun had just risen, and I guessed I had slept walk once more but this time it was for a good cause. I stood up from the bed,and walked to her dresser where her combs and everything were still perfectly laid out. I picked one of them, and I found a few strands of her hair on them. "You were really here," I muttered, running my hand on the comb. Suddenly a very gentle breeze swept by, giving me a brief chilly feel that had the hairs on my body standing, and goosebumps sprouting out of my body."Rest in peace, my love," I said with a deep sigh.I felt an inrush of emotions as I did when I met her, but this time I wasn't angry. It felt nice knowing she was in a good place, and all that could have been was terrible so I was grateful that it never happened.They said you couldn't have your cake, and eat it so I took a deep breath, shoving off the emotions that engulfed
