Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Ramon carries the baby Jacob in his arms and vanishes to some room. It's clear he's still mad at me.
Claire follows him happily.
I turn to Riana. "So now you are sleeping at Ramon's house and even walking around naked?"
She chuckles. "Don't tell me you are jealous!"
I huff. "Why should I be? You used to have a crush on him I remember. You can have him all to yourself now. Especially now that you are getting a divorce."
"That right there screams jealousy and I don't have time for it," She takes my hand and pulls me inside.
She drags me upstairs and I see that she has moved her stuff to this room. Suitcases, shoes, her clothes are hung on the closet. So she is going to be staying here.
Wow!
"Warren and I got into a heated argument last night and he hit me and kicked me out of his house along with the

The flowers in Eric's hand fall to the ground.He stares at me coldly and the deep sadness in his eyes breaks my heart."What's he doing in your house?," he asks staring at me, not looking once at Ramon."He... He..." I stutter. "Roy! It's Roy.""What has Roy got to do with this?," he asks confused."You know just how much Roy is fond of him. He kept crying for him and he couldn't sleep. I had no choice."Eric does not fall for the lie I just cooked up.Ramon groans behind me and storms out without saying a single word to me or Eric.Although seeing him leave breaks my heart, I'm kinda glad the two didn't get into a fight." Did you have to call him to your house?," Eric asks after Ramon leaves. "At this time of the night!""It was for my son....""That guy almost raped you the other day..."
THE RETURN -Chapter Twenty Three-
The minute our eyes meet, Ramon does the unexpected.He turns back and leaves hand in hand with his girlfriend. It's strange.I feel kind of relieved that they they just left but then, kind of jealous.What did I expect? That he would come and sweep me off my feet, rush me to the washrooms and fuck the life out of me? Haha! But that wouldn't be too bad, would it? Yeah, it would be too bad. For Eric. That would hurt his feelings especially now that things seem to be moving smoothly between us.The rest of the date goes well. Eric is not boring at all. He's actually kind of a funny, lively guy who's kind of chilled out. He's actually cool.As we finish on our meals, he announces,"We are having a feast at mom's place tomorrow night. Mom asked if you could come?""And the kids? Who will look after the kids?""The nanny," he replies."After what happened last time?""A new nanny," h

Eric squeezes my hand gently.My mom throws soil on his grave, tears cascading down her eyes. She looks better than yesterday. A little make up (now messed up a little) and a black hat matched with a black dress and a pair of heels.I look at his picture one more time.I can't believe it.Rupert is dead.What is it with people around me dying? First it was my cousin then my step-dad?No!He was shot dead the minute he landed in Kingswood. Whoever it was, they knew the exact time Rupert would be coming from the business trip. And in my head, I can't think of a suspect. I mean, this guy was loved by everyone who crossed paths with him. The town's sweetheart. Always throwing parties every now and then to celebrate life. A man just so full of life and joy. And now his life has been cut short.Just like that...I lay my head on Eric's shoulder. I'm glad he chose to accompany me to this funeral. He's my pillar of streng

I wake up.I am gasping for breathe, panting.I wipe off the beads of sweat on my brow and bury my face in my hands.Eric suddenly wakes up and stands up from the couch he chose to sleep on when he sees me awake.He looks worried as he switches on the lights and walks towards me. He sits beside me on the bed and asks gently,"What's wrong, Mila?"I cry. "Nightmare!"Before he can say another word, I grab him and hug him so tightly. He engulfs me in his arms and I lay my head on his chest. I get lost in his warm arms. I'm still feeling a little frightened.He threads his hands in my hair, soothing me."It's okay," he says gently. "I'm here... It was just a nightmare..."I draw away from him and look up at him intently, my eyes boring into his.He leans closer and brushes his lips past mine.

Roy got into an accident!Ramon quickly rushed him to the hospital.So here's a run-down of what happened. Eric accidentally hit my son as he and Renny were cycling on the road. Everything happened so fast. Roy was on the ground, head and knee bleeding. He had just gotten hit by a car! My baby was hit by a car!I completely froze! I couldn't talk! I couldn't walk!Luckily, Ramon drove like a maniac and here we are in hospital and Roy is receiving treatment.I am sobbing on Eric's shoulder on the bench and Ramon is pacing from corner to corner nervously. He hasn't said a word since we got here, just talking to the doctors and nurses.Ramon's phone rings.I look up and see the caller.Allison.He immediately receives the call.
THE RETURN -Chapter Twenty Seven-
Allison stomps away.My son has this worried look on his face and he asks in concern. "Why is Ms. Allison angry, Mommy?""It's nothing baby," I say warily, pecking his cheek.Eric shows up, ready to drive me home.He notices that I am in Ramon's sweater but fortunately for me, he doesn't say a word.Instead he grins and asks, "can we go?"Ramon looks at me quizzically as if begging me to choose him. But I look away and nod at Eric with a frown on my face."Yeah... Let's go," I mutter.÷÷÷÷÷÷÷I set Roy's chocolate milk along with some muffins for breakfast on the table.Honestly, I didn't want him to go to school today. I still feel like he has not healed completely with all the bandages on his head and

I am on a date.A dinner date with Eric.Roy is with Ramon, playing with Renny at his house. I was actually able to convince Eric that Mr. Lawrence is not as bad as he thinks he is. And you know Eric, he believes every word I say."You are just the most... Amazing woman I've ever met, Mila," Eric says abruptly.That catches me off guard and I'm rendered speechless."To be honest... Since I met you, I have been doing things right in my life. I have a perfect bond with my son. I often go home when I'm free and start hanging out with my brother, Will," he pauses. "We are going for a picnic by the way. Just me, Renny and Will. Would you like to join?"It's still kind of odd to me that Eric has been shunning his special brother for years.But I am happy that he has started treating him right. Atleast he is standing up for him now."I would love to but-""You don't wa
THE RETURN -Chapter Twenty Nine-
"What is that?""A few weeks ago," Ramon narrates. "Allison sent me nudes. She was all clingy and horny and wanted us to get down to business. I really wasn't feeling her and I made that very clear. She has come to my house several times and the only thing we did was just making out... But I didn't feel anything. So, I guess after sending me those nudes, she thought I would want her as desperately but that's just not the case. I still didn't want her. "I'm listening keenly to him. Never in a million years would I have thought Allison would do something so desperate."So when she hurt Roy and I learnt that she was the reason I got fired yet I blamed you the whole time," Ramon continues. "I was so angry and I had to do something to get back at her. I leaked her nudes and sent them to the headmistress and staff of the entire school through mail. She was immediately fired the next morning."

THE RETURN -EPILOGUE-
RAMON'S POVI never thought I would fall so hard for Camilla.Before I met her, I just fucked around. Always making sure I don't get attached until the cliche story happened to me.I fell for her.I fell for her the first night I saw her looking like a complete mess. Her hair wet and her clothes all muddy. And despite that, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.I had seen her photos and I knew she was beautiful. But I didn't know she was that beautiful.I guess the hardest thing for a man is not lying to others but lying to himself.At first, I lied to myself that I'm not falling for her. But deep down, I knew I had fallen already. I had fallen so hard. So hard that it was obvious to everyone around me. Flex kept teasing me about it but I kept denying it. Un

A few weeks later,It is a school-award ceremony.Roy and Renny stand at the auditorium.Ramon and I are cheering them on at the top of our voices.Both boys are being awarded. Renny is getting an award for the best solo verse and Roy is receiving an award for the best poem. I am so proud of the two little boys and the work they have done with the pieces.I wish Eric was here to witness his son making him proud. But he had to be in hospital since Karla is getting discharged today.The doctors informed us that Karla was very lucky that the bullets didn't kill her. She was injured severely and bleeding profusely. It is honestly a miracle that she did not die on the spot.Ramon stops clapping for the boys and darts a glance at me.
THE RETURN -Chapter Fifty Two-
"Harder!"I moan at the top of my voice.Ramon thrusts inside me roughly, the king-size bed creaking underneath. He comes down on me stronger and faster with every shot.We both reach climax and he buries his head on my bosom.We are both out of breath, after that moment of complete ecstasy.The doorbell rings.We both groan at the rude, untimely interruption."You get the door!""No, you get the door!""Nope! I went to get it yesterday," I insist. "It's your turn!"He looks at me with those puppy, dark eyes. He looks so stupid and ridiculous that I burst out a laugh."That's so not working!" I chuckle. "It's pathetic.""Fine then.""Good boy!""You are such a bully!" He dresses up quickly, still grumbling. "It sucks living in
THE RETURN -Chapter Fifty One-
It has been three months.Three whole fucking months and Ramon is still in a coma.Eric and Karla are supposed to be married by now but they couldn't go ahead with it because of Ramon's coma. It's like everything kind of stopped.The world around me stopped.The only thing that keeps me going is Roy.He still goes to school but then keeps asking where his dad is. I keep telling him he's gone far away but he will be back soon. But I am left asking myself.Will he ever come back or is it just a lie I'm telling myself?My friends have been there for me in every way possible: Eric, Riana and Karla. They have been there for me emotionally, physically and even financially.Yes, financially.I went bankrupt.My dad was able to put everything he ever gave to me back in his name. Yeah, that's how sick the devil of a man is. And the little money I get is from the book I published and the one that I
THE RETURN -Chapter Fifty-
Ramon is in hospital.He was rushed to the hospital last night after the shooting.He hasn't woken up since then but at least there's good news. The guy that shot him was caught and confessed he was sent by my dad. It all made sense why Dad threatened me when I went to see him. But I don't get why he would put me through all this pain if he really loves me...It just doesn't make sense...The bad news is that Ramon hasn't woken up since. And I'm afraid he won't since the doctors haven't said a single word. That scares the shit out of me.I haven't had Ramon for the last five years and now losing him forever is like a dreadful nightmare. God! Please don't let that happen! When I lose him this time, it won't be only me that gets affected but also our son, Roy. He has grown too attached to him to lose him now...And, how will I start explaining that he is gone? This time forever?I am even tired of
THE RETURN -Chapter Forty Nine-
Ramon and Roy went to the mall a couple of hours ago but still haven't returned.I'm sure they are having so much fun together. They didn't want me to tagging along.They claimed it's a boys' affair and that I was not welcome. Can you imagine! So sexist!I am in the kitchen, making dinner. I hope by the time they are here, I will be done.The doorbell rings.That's odd.I was not expecting anyone at this time.I open the door, only to see Eric standing at the doorstep looking anxious and nervous. I welcome him and proceed to the kitchen where he follows me.Eric, being the good guy, doesn't sit down. He helps with slicing the onions and the tomatoes. I can clearly see his hands are kind of shaky."Eric, are you okay?" I ask him."I am fine... Just a little anxious...""Why?"He sighs and stops to look at me."Because I want to propose to Karla..."
THE RETURN -Chapter Forty Eight-
Ramon holds my hand as we get into the restaurant.The feeling is surreal. I just can't believe I am in his arms again. And this time, it's forever.It's been a week since I came back. You don't know how happy Ramon was to see me. He held on tight to me for thirty minutes straight. Being in his arms again was overwhelming. I couldn't believe it was happening. I thought I had lost him forever this time.Ramon couldn't believe that my dad has been alive all this time. But he was relieved that he didn't kill my dad that night and now his conscience is clean. I expected him to be very angry at me but the funny thing, he was so overwhelmed to see me that he even cried in front of everyone. That was very emotional and I found myself crying too.Karla and Eric started awwed at us as we embraced.So Eric is the hero in this story. When he found out I was missing, he knew Ramon would be able to help find me faster. So he paid one of the of
THE RETURN -Chapter Forty Seven-
Solidad is pointing a gun directly at Dad.Dad's face is contorted with fury and terror, like he can't believe she just betrayed him. She's not in the sexy red dress she was wearing a while ago. She's in a black pant suit and her hair tied up in a neat bun. She looks like a serious no-nonsense woman."Detective Marina Santos," she shows him her badge. "Calvin Clarkson, you are under arrest for drug trafficking and the murders of Clara Clarkson and Rupert Green. You are also under arrest for faking your own death."Dad is baffled by the revelation."I have been an undercover detective and I was assigned to you back in Mexico. The Mexico Police wanted proof that you are indeed a drug trafficker. But as I got deeper in your case, I discovered that there was more to you than drug trafficking. Just some few weeks ago, I found out that you faked your own death, killed your ex-wife and Rupert and to make it even worse, you abducted your
